Draft selections — awaiting the founder’s edit.

He imprecates and foretels their ruin, and the judgments which the righteous God would bring upon them for their injustice (

Matthew Henry· Commentary on the Whole Bible, 1710puritan

No sooner can they speak than they speak to God's dishonour; tongue-sins are some of the first of our actual transgressions. Their poison (that is, their ill-will, and the spite they bore to goodness and all good men, particularly to David) was like the poison of a serpent, innate, venomous, and very mischievous, and that which they can never be cured of.

Matthew Henry· Commentary on the Whole Bible, 1710puritan

Estranged - From God, and from all goodness. Their very natures are corrupt, even from their birth: they are the wicked offspring of sinful parents. Astray - By actual sins, from their childhood, as soon as ever they were capable of the exercise of reason.

John Wesley (NT Notes)· Explanatory Notes upon the Bible, 1765evangelical
