Thirdly, To be wicked is ordinarily opposed to our being just; and so, Thou knowest that I am not wicked, is, Thou knowest that I am not condemned or cast at thy bar, for a wicked man. I am not condemned, but justified in thy sight. In which sense the word is used in that prophetic curse against Judas, who betrayed Christ (Psal. 109.7.) When he shall be judged, let him be condemned: so we render it; the Hebrew is elegantly translated thus,1 When he shall be judged, let him go out wicked; that is, let him go out from before the bar and tribunal of his Judges, a condemned man, or,2 Let him proceed wicked, Let that be his title and his honour, wicked and just are judiciary or Court-terms, equivalent with justified and condemned.
