Psalms 90:11

Psa 90:11 Who knoweth the power of thine anger? even according to thy fear, [so is] thy wrath.

Ver. 11. Who knoweth the power of thine anger? ] None doth, since it is such as no man can either avoid or abide; and such is men’s stupidity, that few will believe till they feel it; no, though their lives be so short and uncertain.

Even according to thy fear, so is thy wrath ] Ira tua non est minor timore nostro; let a man tear thee never so much, he is sure to feel thee much more, if once he fall into thy fingers.
