lest he should smite him with destruction. He may retreat in any direction; but if in striving to escape his feet be caught in the snare set by the warriors that surround him, then is his glory turned unto destruction. Ah, lord! ah, for his glory! And his people who are left after him are as nothing; for of what account are they? In one moment the mighty men are subdued, and the commander is brought low, he is thrust out, he boweth down, and he falleth. The King who hath striven against him bringeth him down from his greatness, until not a remnant is left unto him. Then is he overthrown and cut off from his position and honor. How can one pursue a thousand! That one is left in glory and majesty, and the other dieth in bitterness of soul.
Thus shall perish all the enemies of the King, and they that seek his evil; but they that love him shall be as the sun when he goeth forth in his glory.
