Then they would have quickly swallowed us up alive when their wrath was kindled against us;
Then they had swallowed us up quick, When their wrath was kindled against us:
Then they had swallowed us up alive, When their wrath was kindled against us:
then they would have swallowed us up whole with their rage burning against us!
For the Lord will not allow the rod of sinners to remain over the lot of the just, so that the just may not extend their hands toward iniquity.
For the Lord will not leave the rod of sinners upon the lot of the just: that the just may not stretch forth their hands to iniquity.
