Psalms 125:3. For the rod of the wicked shall not rest upon the lot of the righteous; lest the righteous put forth their hands into iniquity.
"The rod of the wicked" may fall upon the lot of the righteous, but it shall not "rest" there. The godly may be oppressed for a season, but that season shall not be too long for them to endure. God will not allow his servants to be tried above what they are able to bear, lest their faith should fail, and, in order to escape from their oppressors, they should "put forth their hands unto iniquity."
