Psalms 141:10

Psa 141:10 Let the wicked fall into their own nets, whilst that I withal escape.

Ver. 10. Let the wicked fall ] Metaphora a piscibus, saith Tremellius, as fishes in casting nets, Isaiah 19:8 .

Whilst that I withal escape ] The righteous is delivered out of trouble, and the wicked cometh in his stead, Proverbs 9:8 . It appeareth at length that simple honesty is the best policy, and wicked policy the greatest simplicity, and most self-destructive.
