PSAL. LVIII.

AFTER the 35 Verse of this Chapter, seemeth to be the proper place and order of Psal. 58. titled, Al tashchith, Destroy not: as referring to Davids not destroying Nabal when he had so threatned, and yet at last rejoyced that he destroyed him not. He blameth in this Psalm the venemousness of Na∣bals Tongue, that had reviled him, and the deafness of his ears, that would not hearken to the voyce of his Messengers, say they their errand never so wisely. He prophesieth that God would suddenly take him away as with a storm, be∣fore the Pots, set on the fire for his Feasts, should feel any warmness from the thorns put under them to boyl them, and 〈 in non-Latin alphabet 〉〈 in non-Latin alphabet 〉 * 1.1 According as he was lively and jovial, so should the wrath be proportioned to him when it came, ver. 9. for so might the latter end of that verse be most properly rendred. As he live∣ly, so the wrath, 〈 in non-Latin alphabet 〉〈 in non-Latin alphabet 〉 Chai, is the Epithet that David gives him when he sends his Messengers to him: Thus shall you say, 〈 in non-Latin alphabet 〉〈 in non-Latin alphabet 〉 Lechai to him that is lively: which our English hath well expressed, To him that liveth in prosperity: So David saith to Saul, 〈 in non-Latin alphabet 〉〈 in non-Latin alphabet 〉 Or what is my livelihood in the family of my Father, 1 Sam. 18. 18.
