7._o as_o i_o have_v do_v so_o god_n have_v requite_v i_o these_o be_v the_o word_n of_o adonibezek_n one_o of_o the_o king_n of_o canaan_n who_o the_o son_n of_o judah_n and_o simeon_n have_v take_v

or_o with_o reference_n to_o he_o who_o speak_v they_o in_o themselves_o they_o be_v a_o affirmation_n or_o historical_a narration_n that_o as_o adonibezek_n have_v do_v so_o god_n requite_v he_o if_o we_o consider_v they_o with_o reference_n to_o the_o speaker_n they_o be_v a_o confession_n as_o be_v speak_v by_o he_o who_o do_v the_o fact_n and_o suffer_v now_o the_o punishment_n adonibezek_n himself_o it_o be_v who_o say_v as_o i_o have_v do_v so_o god_n have_v requite_v i_o in_o the_o first_o consideration_n i_o observe_v four_o thing_n 1._o that_o god_n punish_v sin_n with_o temporal_a punishment_n in_o this_o life_n as_o well_o as_o with_o eternal_a in_o the_o life_n to_o come_v word_n thus_o this_o miserable_a king_n here_o feel_v the_o hand_n of_o god_n fall_v so_o heavy_a upon_o he_o while_o he_o be_v yet_o in_o the_o world_n that_o it_o make_v he_o bitter_o cry_v out_o i_o have_v do_v cruel_o and_o god_n have_v even_o here_o requite_v i_o 2._o that_o god_n do_v not_o always_o present_o inflict_v his_o judgement_n while_o the_o sin_n be_v fresh_a but_o sometime_o defer_v that_o long_a which_o â—e_n mean_v to_o give_v home_o at_o the_o last_o so_o say_v our_o king_n here_o as_o i_o have_v do_v not_o as_o i_o do_v even_o now_o but_o as_o i_o do_v long_o ago_o and_o think_v by_o this_o god_n have_v forget_v i_o yet_o now_o i_o see_v he_o requite_v i_o 3._o that_o these_o divine_a judgement_n by_o some_o conformity_n or_o affinity_n do_v carry_v in_o they_o as_o it_o be_v a_o stamp_n and_o print_v of_o the_o sin_n for_o which_o they_o be_v inflict_v so_o say_v this_o unhappy_a king_n as_o i_o have_v do_v even_o just_a as_o i_o have_v do_v to_o other_o now_o i_o suffer_v myself_o seventy_o king_n thumb_n in_o my_o cruelty_n i_o cut_v off_o and_o in_o my_o pride_n make_v they_o to_o feed_v like_o dog_n under_o my_o table_n now_o the_o measure_n which_o i_o meet_v unto_o other_o be_v measure_v unto_o myself_o for_o just_a as_o i_o have_v do_v so_o god_n have_v requite_v i_o 4._o that_o the_o profit_n and_o pleasure_n which_o man_n aim_v at_o when_o they_o commit_v sin_n will_v not_o so_o much_o as_o quit_v cost_v even_o in_o this_o life_n 7._o for_o if_o god_n punishment_n be_v requital_n certain_o the_o profit_n we_o have_v get_v by_o sin_n he_o will_v make_v we_o lose_v in_o the_o punishment_n the_o pleasure_n we_o hope_v to_o find_v and_o seek_v after_o in_o sin_n will_v be_v overpoised_n in_o the_o pain_n we_o be_v sure_a to_o feel_v when_o the_o just_a hand_n of_o the_o almighty_a shall_v requite_v we_o and_o thus_o have_v you_o hear_v already_o the_o sum_n of_o what_o i_o mean_v to_o speak_v of_o in_o the_o first_o consideration_n of_o these_o word_n now_o i_o will_v return_v again_o and_o speak_v more_o large_o of_o they_o all_o and_o that_o in_o the_o same_o order_n i_o give_v they_o out_o the_o first_o collection_n therefore_o which_o i_o make_v be_v that_o god_n punish_v the_o sin_n of_o man_n with_o temporal_a punishment_n in_o this_o life_n as_o well_o as_o with_o eternal_a in_o the_o life_n to_o come_v 1._o this_o verity_n to_o use_v the_o word_n
