He hath said in his heart, I shall not be moved: for [I shall] never [be] in adversity.
Ver. 6. He hath said in his heart, I shall not be moved] So said a better man once, Psalms 30:6, but he was quickly confuted. If a believer conclude, by the force of his faith, that he shall never be moved from that good estate in which Christ hath set him, this is the triumph of trust, and not the vain vaunt of presumption.
For I shall never be in adversity] The Chaldee hath it, Quoniam non sum in malo; and understandeth it as the evil of sin, as Exodus 32:22, and then the sense is, because the wicked man suffereth not the punishment of sin, therefore he conceiveth that he is innocent, and without sin. See Hosea 12:8, See Trapp on " Hos 12:8 "
