Psalms 50:22

Psa 50:22 Now consider this, ye that forget God, lest I tear [you] in pieces, and [there be] none to deliver.

Ver. 22. Now consider this, ye that forget God ] That cast him and his counsels behind your backs, before he awaken your drowsy consciences, and rouse up the lion that lieth sleeping in your bosoms, like Cain’s dog, Genesis 4:7 , with his dog-sleep; and before you come to answer for all, with flames about your ears.

Lest I tear you in pieces, and there be none to deliver you ] From the wolf a shepherd may rescue his lamb, not so from the hungry lion, Amo 3:12 Isaiah 31:4 . God’s power is irresistible, his punishments unavoidable.
