of_o the_o people_n as_o david_n to_o the_o tribe_n of_o israel_n three_o to_o our_o governor_n as_o david_n to_o they_o that_o sit_v on_o the_o seat_n of_o justice_n three_o the_o reason_n why_o all_o estate_n shall_v receive_v this_o exhortation_n because_o they_o that_o love_v jerusalem_n and_o seek_v her_o peace_n they_o shall_v prosper_v concern_v the_o cause_n of_o this_o my_o speech_n since_o this_o jerusalem_n resemble_v the_o church_n whereof_o we_o be_v member_n which_o as_o jerom_o speak_v psalm_n be_v not_o full_o build_v but_o be_v daily_o a_o build_n wherein_o not_o dead_a

many_o the_o 4.2_o adversary_n of_o judah_n and_o benjamin_n of_o god_n and_o of_o his_o truth_n have_v come_v to_o our_o zerubabell_n and_o chief_a father_n and_o say_v unto_o they_o we_o will_v build_v with_o you_o for_o we_o seek_v the_o lord_n your_o god_n as_o you_o do_v but_o purpose_v indeed_o 4.4_o to_o discourage_v the_o people_n and_o trouble_v this_o build_n nay_o since_o we_o can_v say_v of_o our_o church_n and_o builder_n as_o david_n there_o of_o that_o jerusalem_n 122.2_o that_o it_o be_v a_o city_n which_o be_v build_v at_o unity_n in_o itself_o but_o we_o may_v every_o where_o hear_v man_n complain_v of_o and_o tax_v our_o many_o iarring_n &_o idle_a disagreement_n let_v no_o man_n ask_v the_o reason_n why_o i_o take_v unto_o i_o these_o word_n of_o exhortation_n o_o pray_v for_o the_o peace_n of_o jerusalem_n let_v they_o prosper_v that_o love_n she_o when_o many_o in_o our_o church_n walk_v after_o the_o flesh_n not_o after_o the_o spirit_n seek_v to_o serve_v their_o own_o fancy_n and_o worldly_a respect_n and_o not_o the_o truth_n of_o christ_n jesu_n in_o the_o singleness_n of_o their_o heart_n when_o many_o as_o we_o may_v see_v stumble_v at_o straw_n and_o leap_v over_o block_n strain_n at_o gnat_n and_o swallow_v camel_n tithe_v mint_n and_o commyn_v &_o leave_v the_o great_a matter_n of_o the_o law_n neglect_v nay_o when_o many_o in_o stead_n o●_n a_o good_a zeal_n for_o god_n glory_n and_o for_o his_o truth_n bring_v strange_a fire_n such_o which_o never_o burn_v on_o god_n altar_n but_o be_v fetch_v from_o the_o fire_n of_o hell_n itself_o as_o though_o without_o it_o god_n truth_n can_v not_o stand_v nor_o we_o be_v know_v to_o be_v the_o servant_n of_o god_n except_o we_o wear_v the_o cognizance_n of_o the_o devil_n when_o the_o word_n and_o deed_n

not_o prepare_v your_o heart_n unto_o the_o god_n of_o your_o father_n you_o will_v not_o take_v nor_o give_v notice_n of_o they_o wherefore_o as_o christ_n to_o the_o angel_n of_o the_o seven_o church_n so_o he_o speak_v unto_o you_o 20._o i_o have_v somewhat_o to_o say_v against_o you_o in_o that_o you_o foster_v the_o wicked_a in_o their_o sin_n nay_o in_o that_o you_o make_v the_o sin_n of_o other_o your_o sin_n and_o by_o your_o wink_n at_o and_o cloak_v of_o they_o pluck_v the_o curse_n of_o god_n upon_o your_o head_n and_o upon_o his_o church_n 48.10_o for_o as_o jeremie_n speak_v
