Psalms 60:2

Psa 60:2 Thou hast made the earth to tremble; thou hast broken it: heal the breaches thereof; for it shaketh.

Ver. 2. Thou hast made the earth to tremble ] By sundry fearful and dismal fractions and concussions in our state.

Thou hast broken it ] In allusion to earthquakes.

Heal the breaches thereof ] Remedy the disorders, and cure the diseases, like a good physician. The Greeks call a king αναξ αβ ακος , Medela from his healing office; God is Jehovah, the physician, the Sun of righteousness hath healing under his wings.

For it shaketh ] Nutat ac mox ruitura videtur it will surely down if not timely shored up.
