Commentary on Psalm 92 · §4

The instability of the impious man

He brings them back again, adding: 'A man who is in affliction and knows how to bear weakness' (Psalm 106:36).

Again, this one is shameless after the insults, appearing formless, then again putting on elegance through change.

For God, dwelling in him, did not lead him to the judgment of a lamb toward death, nor was he slaughtered according to the manner of a ram, being naturally invisible.

Greek

παραυτίκα πάλιν ἐπάγει προσθείς· Ἄνθρωπος ἐν πληγῇ ὢν καὶ εἰδὼς φέρειν μαλακίαν. 37 Αὖθις ἄρ' οὗτός ἐστιν ὁ μετὰ τὰς ὕβρεις ἀειδὴς, ἄμορφος ὁραθεὶς, εἶτα πάλιν ἐκ μεταβολῆς εὐπρέπειαν ἐνδυσάμενος. Οὐδὲ γὰρ ὁ κατοικῶν ἐν αὐτῷ Θεὸς ἀμνοῦ δίκην εἰς θάνατον ἤγετο καὶ προβάτου τρόπον ἀπεσφάττετο, φυσικῶς ἀόρατος ὤν.
