Thus saith the Lord GOD; It shall also come to pass, that at the same time shall things come into thy mind, and thou shalt think an evil thought:
God puts hooks in His enemy's jaws before the trouble even comes, so His people need not be frightened. He foresees those who will attack His church and declares Himself against them, yet turns even their wrath to His praise and the glory of His own name.

an evil thought--as to attacking God's people in their defenseless state.
