Jeremiah5:9
9 Shall I not visit for these things? saith the LORD: and shall not my soul be avenged on such a nation as this?
i. e. Punish, Psal. 89.32. should I connive at such things, the wicked would say, I did not see them, or take notice of them, Psal. 5[illegible: 1 letter].21. much to the same purpose with verse 7. begin▪ and punishment may be termed visiting as implying the equity of Gods procedures, that he first sees and considers the case, before he inflicts punishment as in the case of Sodom, Gen. 18.21. spoke after the manner of man.
For I, it speaks the greatness of Gods displeasure, shall not my very soul be in this work of vengeance? Psal. 11.5.
