Psalms 132:18
His enemies will I clothe with shame: but upon himself shall his crown flourish.
132:18. His enemies will I clothe with shame. They will be utterly defeated, they will loathe their evil design, they will be despised for having hated the Ever Blessed One. Their shame they will be unable to hide: it will cover them. God will array them in it forever, and it will be their convict dress to all eternity.
But upon himself shall his crown flourish. Green will be his laurels of victory. He will win and wear the crown of honor, and his inherited diadem will increase in splendor. Is it not so to this hour with Jesus? His kingdom cannot fail; his imperial glories cannot fade. It is himself that we delight to honor; it is to himself that the honor comes, and upon himself that it flourishes. If others snatch at his crown their traitorous aims are defeated; but he in his own person reigns with ever-growing splendor.
