“If the scourge slay suddenly, hee will laugh at the triall of the innocent.”
1611 King James Version (KJV)
9:23 Suddenly - If some common judgment come upon a people. Laugh - God will be well pleased, to see how the same scourge, which is the perdition of the wicked, is the trial of the innocent, and of their faith, which will be found unto praise and honour and glory.
