Psalms9:17

Verſ. 17. The wicked ſhall be turned into Hell] Heb. into into Hell (twice) that is into the nethermoſt Hell, the loweſt Dungeon of Hell. The word L[illegible: 1 letter]ſh[illegible: 2 letters]lah hath a vehement inforcement from [non-Latin text not transcribed] locall, as Grammarians call it, and importeth, that they ſhall be caſt into outer darkneſs,Auguſt. In tenebras ex tenebris infelicitèr excluſi, infelicius excluden[illegible: 2 letters]. R. Solomons Note here is, They ſhall be carried away from Hell to Judgement, and from Judgement they ſhall be returned to the deepeſt Pit of Hell. This if men did but beleeve, they durſt not do as they do, as once Cato ſaid to Ceſar.

And all the Nations] The wicked be they never ſo many of them, they may not think to eſcape for their multitudes, as amongſt Mutineers in an Army, the tenth man ſometimes is puniſhed, the reſt go free.
