Psalms 7:12
Compare all
10 1My defense is of God,
Who saves the aupright in heart. 
11 God is a just judge,
And God is angry with the wicked every day.
12 If he does not turn back,
He will asharpen His sword;
He bends His bow and makes it ready. 
13 He also prepares for Himself instruments of death;
He makes His arrows into fiery shafts.
14 aBehold, the wicked brings forth iniquity;
Yes, he conceives trouble and brings forth falsehood.

Psalms 7:12

If he turn not - This clause the Syriac adds to the preceding verse. Most of the versions read, "If ye return not." Some contend, and not without a great show of probability, that the two verses should be read in connection, thus: "God is a just Judge; a God who is provoked every day. If (the sinner) turn not, he will whet his sword; he hath bent his bow, and made it ready." This, no doubt, gives the sense of both.
