Psalms 11:3
Quando fundamenta disperdat Dominus universa labia dolosa?
If the foundations be destroyed, what can the righteous do?
The foundations can never totally and finally, yet may they partially be destroyed.
If they destroy not the foundations, it is no thanks to them, seeing all the world will bear them witness they have done their best (that is, their worst), what their might and malice could perform. Secondly, in their own vainglorious imaginations: they may not only vainly boast, but also verily believe that they have destroyed the foundations.
