John Trapp on Psalms 91:6

Verſ. 6. Nor for the Peſtilence] Called before Terrour, and Arrow, as ſome conceive. Hippocrates calleth it [non-Latin text not transcribed], the Divine Diſeaſe, becauſe ſent more immediately from God, as an evil Meſſenger. Not but that a good man may dye of the Plagues, as did Oecolampadius, and many others; Hezechiah is thought to have had it, ſo had reverend Beza (his Family was four ſeveral times viſited here with) who was much comforted under that and other heavy afflictions by this ſweet Pſalm, which therefore he hugg'd and held moſt dear all the dayes of his life, as himſelf witneſſeth in his argument, and uſe of this Pſalm.

Nor for the deſtruction that waſteth at noon-day] For the noon-day-Devil (ſo the Vulgar rendreth it after the Sept.) as, for Peſtilence walking in darkneſs, one old Engliſh Manuſcript hath Goblin. The Chaldee here expounds it, the company of Devils. As, in the next verſe, A thouſand ſhall fall at thy ſide, and ten thouſand, &c. R. Solomon expoundeth, A thouſand Devils ſhall pitch their tents on thy right hand, and on thy left; but ſhall not hurt thee, becauſe the good Angels ſhall counterguard thee againſt them. But it is better to underſtand all (as before) of the Peſtilence, though I doubt not but the Devil that old man-ſlayer hath a hand in this, and other common calamities; yet not without the Lords over-ruling power limiting him.
