Psalms 56:7

Psa 56:7 Shall they escape by iniquity? in [thine] anger cast down the people, O God.

Ver. 7. Shall they escape by iniquity? ] q.d. No, let them never think it, their sin will surely find them out, as cunning as they are; and since they are so foolhardy as to walk upon iniquity’s fireworks, let them look to be blown up; and they shall have my prayers to that purpose.

In thine anger cast down, &c. ] It is prophetic as well as optative.
