John Trapp on Psalms 5:6

Verſ. 6. Thou ſhalt deſtroy them that ſpeak leaſing] Whether in jeſt or earneſt, thoſe that lye in jeſt, will without repentance go to Hell in earneſt. And for the officious lye, ſome think it no fault: whereas Gal. 1.10. we muſt not ſpeak truth to pleaſe men, much leſs may we lye. the truth is, all lies are pernicious, and all Liers will be deſtroyed, but eſpecially thoſe that have [illegible: 1 letter]aught their tongues to ſpeak lies, Jer. 9.5. that take faſt hold of deceit, Jer. 8:5. ſo that they cannot bee got off without ſtriving: ſuch an one was Doeg, Saul, &c.

The Lord will abhor the bloudy and deceitful man] Heb. the man of bloud: for bloud hath ſo many tongues as drops to cry for vengeance, Gen. 4. and God makes inquiſition, Pſal. 9.12. commanding that Murtherers ſhould be drawn from the Altar to the Slaughter, Exod. 21.14. This made King James ſay, that if God did leave him to kill a man, he would think God did not love him. As for deceitfull perſons. the Lord is the avenger of all ſuch, 1 Theſſ. 4.6.
