It is observable through the whole of the sacred word, that the day of vengeance, and the year of the Lord's redeemed are always joined. When Jesus comes to save, he comes also to destroy. And when he comes to be glorified in his saints, he comes also to pour out vengeance on them that know not God, and obey not the gospel of Jesus. Isa 63:4; 2 Thessalonians 1:10. And as a further confirmation of this most sure, but alarming truth, it is worthy observation, that the very name of Elohim, the blessed God, in his threefold character of person, signifies the Denouncers of covenant engagements as equally pledged to fulfil condemnation as promises. And this holy name implies the oath to Adonai, the mediator. Psalms 110:4 that while his people shall be made willing in the day of his power, his enemies, both men and devils, shall be put under his footstool. Oh! that this were but duly considered, and that scripture regarded. Psalms 2:12.

4 Yea, and what have ye to do with me, O Tyre, and Zidon, and all the coasts of Palestine? will ye render me a recompence? and if ye recompense me, swiftly and speedily will I return your recompence upon your own head;
5 Because ye have taken my silver and my gold, and have carried into your temples my goodly pleasant things:
6 The children also of Judah and the children of Jerusalem have ye sold unto the Grecians,a that ye might remove them far from their border.
7 Behold, I will raise them out of the place whither ye have sold them, and will return your recompence upon your own head:
8 And I will sell your sons and your daughters into the hand of the children of Judah, and they shall sell them to the Sabeans, to a people far off: for the LORD hath spoken it.
