Psalms 64:7

Psa 64:7 But God shall shoot at them [with] an arrow; suddenly shall they be wounded.

Ver. 7. But God shall shoot at them, &c. ] He shall overshoot them in their own bow, pay them home in their own coin; he will deal with them lege talionis, for he loveth to retaliate, see Psalms 64:4 , they shall find that he can handle his arms a fair deal better against them than they did against David.

With an arrow suddenly ] As was Ahab, and the rich fool, Luke 12:16-21 , while he sat pruning himself like a bird on a bough, death fetched him off suddenly by his shaft shot at him, and down be came tumbling. See 1 Thessalonians 5:3 .
