To these Objections may be answered: First, God can clear his justice in his own time, and in his own way; by suitableness of the judgement, Judges 1.7. and Remorse of conscience, Gen. 42.21. Secondly, God will in every age clear his providence by some remarkable judgement, Psalm 9.16. Psalm 58.10, 11. Thirdly, Good men must judge of things by the word, not by present events, Psalm 73.17.
