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 Voor de pestilentie, die in de donkerheid wandelt; voor het verderf, dat op den middag verwoest.
7 Aan uw zijden zullen er duizend vallen, en tien duizend aan uw rechterhand; tot u zal het niet genaken.
8 Alleenlijk zult gij het met uw ogen aanschouwen; en gij zult de vergelding der goddelozen zien.
9 Want Gij, HEERE! zijt mijn Toevlucht! De Allerhoogste hebt gij gesteld tot uw Vertrek;
10 U zal geen kwaad wedervaren, en geen plage zal uw tent naderen.
