6. Notwithstanding their real
cowardice, the wicked put on the lion’s skin and lord it over the Lord’s poor
ones. The special points and butt of their jest seem to be the confidence of
the godly in their Lord. What can your God do for you now? Where is the reward
of all your praying and beseeching? Taunting questions of this sort they thrust
into the faces of weak but gracious souls, and tempt them to feel ashamed of
their refuge. The Lord our refuge will avenge his own elect, and ease himself
of his adversaries, who once made so light of him and of his people.
