Shall eat good; shall receive much comfort, and credit, and benefit to himself. By the fruit of his mouth; by his wise and profitable discourses. The soul, i.e. the person, as the soul is oft used. The transgressors; who transgress with their lips, as this general phrase may be restrained from the former clause. Shall eat violence; shall have that violence and injury returned upon themselves, which they have offered to others in word or deed.
