The lusts of the flesh are here called the sins of his youth. His hiding it and keeping it under his tongue, denotes concealment of his beloved lust, and delight therein.

Also violence and injustice, these sins bring God's judgments upon nations and families. Observe the punishment of the wicked man for these things.
