Draft selections — awaiting the founder’s edit.

(1.) That all their comforts at home shall be poisoned and embittered to them: I will feed this people with wormwood (or rather with wolf's-bane, for it signifies a herb that is not wholesome, as wormwood is though it be bitter, but some herb that is both nauseous and noxious), and I will give them water of gall (or juice of hemlock or some other herb that is poisonous) to drink.

Matthew Henry· Commentary on the Whole Bible, 1710puritan

And yet, though they are scattered so as that they will not know where to find one another. God will know where to find them all out ( Ps. xxi. 8 ) with that evil which still pursues impenitent sinners: I will send a sword after them, some killing judgment or other, till I have consumed them; for when God judges he will overcome, when he pursues he will overtake.

Matthew Henry· Commentary on the Whole Bible, 1710puritan

A sword - But I will follow them with the sword, 'till they be destroyed, such of them as were appointed for destruction; for otherwise, they were not all consumed, a full end was not to be made.
