Psalms52:7

Verſ. 7. Lo, this is the man] Or rather, now the Monſter to be pointed at; once ſo mighty, now ſo miſerable; O quantum haec Niobe, &c. what a ſtrange change is here; &c? As the true Iſraelite is pointed out with a Behold for imitation, Job. 1.47. ſo is this counterfeit Iſraelite for deteſtation.

That made not God his ſtrength] But carried the matter as if hee had been ſome petty-god within himſelf.

But truſted in the abundance, &c.] Never true to thoſe that truſted them.

And ſtrengthened himſelf in his wickedneſs] Heb. In his woful evil, in his putting many poor Creatures to their Wo is me.
