Psalms 55:23 - Matthew Poole's English Annotations on the Holy Bible

Bible Comments

Shalt bring them down; my wicked enemies, of whom I have hitherto spoken. Bloody and deceitful men; that colour their cruel intentions with specious and deceitful pretences; which are most hateful to God and all men. Shall not live out half their days; not half of what others live, and they by the course of nature might live; but shall be cut off by God's just judgment, by an untimely and violent death. But I will trust in thee; and in this confidence I will quietly and patiently wait upon thee, for their downfall, and for my deliverance.

Psalms 55:23

23 But thou, O God, shalt bring them down into the pit of destruction: bloodyf and deceitful men shall not live out half their days; but I will trust in thee.
