Proverbs22:3

3 A prudent man foreseeth the evil, and hideth himself : but the simple pass on, and are punished.

The Calamity or Judgment of God threatned, and approaching.

Retireth to his strong Tower, mentioned Prov. 18. 10. by Prayer and Repentance, putteth himself under the Protection of the Almighty. Compare Isa. 26. 20.

In their former road and course of sin, carelesly and securely, as Travellers do in a road where they apprehend no danger.
