John Trapp on Psalms 79:11

Verſ. 11. Let the ſighing of the priſoner, &c.] It was lately in many places of this land a like difficult thing, to find a wicked man in the enemies priſons, or a godly man out of them. The ſights of ſuch were ſhril in Gods ears.

Preſerve thou thoſe that are appointed to dye] Heb. The children of death, thoſe that being deſtined to deſtruction ſeem to be as much in deaths power, as children are in their Parents. The Arabick rendreth it, Redime filios occiſorum, Redeem the children of thoſe who are ſlain, leſt the name of their Parents be blotted out.
