Psalms55:23
23. But thou, O God, shalt bring them down into the pit of destruction: bloody and deceitful men shall not live out half their days , but I will trust in thee .
My wicked Enemies of whom I have hitherto spoken.
That Colour their Cruel intentions with specious and deceitful Pretences; which are most hateful to God, and all Men.
Not half of what others Live, and they by the Course of Nature might Live; but shall be cut off by God's just Judgment, by an untimely and violent Death.
And in this Confidence I will quietly and Patiently wait upon thee, for their downf[illegible: 1+ letters]l and for my Deliverance.
