[God] distributeth sorrows in his anger; or rather, "how oft doth he distribute sorrows in his anger?" but seldom; he is angry with the wicked every day, and reserves wrath for them, and many sorrows shall be to them, but not for the present; those are future, and even such as of a woman in travail, as the word used signifies, and which shall come upon them suddenly and certainly, and there will be no avoiding them; see Ps 32:10; but does God frequently distribute or portion out sorrows to them now?
he does not; they have their portion of good things in this life; does he usually give them sorrow of heart, his curse unto them?
