Psalm 91:8 Meaning and Commentary

Psalms 91:8

Only with thine eyes shall thou behold
The flying arrow, the walking pestilence, and wasting destruction, and the great devastations made by it:

and see the reward of the wicked;
the vengeance of God upon them, and this as a just punishment for their sins; not looking upon it with delight and pleasure, rejoicing in the misery of their fellow creatures, any otherwise than as the glory of divine justice is displayed in it; see ( Psalms 52:6 ) ( 68:10 ) , the pestilence is always threatened, and it always comes, as a Judgment upon a wicked generation of men; and so it is ever to be considered, and is considered by good men, ( Leviticus 26:5 ) ( Deuteronomy 28:20 Deuteronomy 28:21 ) .

Psalm 91:8 In-Context

6 Nè di pestilenza che vada attorno nelle tenebre; Nè di sterminio che distrugga in pien mezzodì.
7 Mille te ne caderanno al lato manco, E diecimila al destro; E pur quello non ti aggiungerĂ .
8 Sol riguarderai con gli occhi, E vedrai la retribuzione degli empi,
9 Perciocchè, o Signore, tu sei il mio ricetto; Tu hai costituito l’Altissimo per tuo abitacolo.
10 Male alcuno non ti avverrĂ , E piaga alcuna non si accosterĂ  al tuo tabernacolo.
