John Trapp on Proverbs 12:7

Verſ. 7. The wicked are overthrown, and are not] Say that the righteous cannot prevail by their Apologies for themſelves and others, God will take the matter into his own hand, and avenge them, Luk. 18.7. as he did the Primitive Chriſtians, and the French Proteſtants, upon their mercileſſe Perſecutors. Tu vero Herodes ſanguinolente time. As Beza warned Charls the Ninth, Author of the Maſſacre.

But the houſe of the righteous ſhall ſtand] Gods houſe the Church ſhall (as the Gloſſe applies this Text) The mountain of the Lord ſhall bee exalted above all mountains. The Church, as it is higheſt in the favour of God, ſo it ſhall bee higheſt in it ſelf: when the enemies ſhall be in that place that is fitteſt for them, the loweſt, that is the foot-ſtool of Chriſt. There is a Council in Heaven will daſh the mould of all contrary Counſels upon earth, Pſal. 2. Gaudeo quod Chriſtus dominus eſt: alioqui totus deſperaſſem. I am glad yet that Chriſt is King: For otherwiſe I ſhould have been utterly out of hope, writes Miconius to Calvin, upon the view of the Churches enemies.
