he_o thus_o reason_v by_o way_n of_o comparison_n he_o have_v endure_v the_o trouble_n and_o trial_n procure_v by_o his_o son_n who_o seek_v his_o life_n whereas_o shemei_n be_v a_o stranger_n unto_o

that_o god_n will_v do_v he_o good_a for_o his_o curse_v not_o that_o this_o affliction_n be_v the_o cause_n of_o his_o reward_n but_o it_o be_v a_o order_n and_o course_n which_o the_o lord_n

temporal_a thing_n but_o of_o his_o spiritual_a state_n his_o everlasting_a salvation_n david_n make_v no_o doubt_n at_o all_o 6._o quest._n v._o 10._o whether_o david_n do_v well_o in_o bear_v shemei_n his_o reproachful_a word_n and_o what_o a_o reproach_n be_v and_o how_o to_o be_v bear_v 1._o a_o reproach_n be_v offer_v either_o in_o word_n as_o shemei_n revile_v david_n or_o in_o deed_n as_o abshalom_n defile_v his_o father_n concubine_n not_o so_o much_o of_o lust_n as_o to_o disgrace_v his_o father_n 2._o reproach_n some_o be_v mere_a slander_n as_o those_o be_v which_o shemei_n object_v to_o david_n some_o be_v true_a as_o when_o one_o object_v such_o crime_n as_o be_v true_a but_o after_o a_o reproachful_a manner_n 3._o some_o reproachful_a word_n be_v utter_v by_o way_n of_o disgrace_n and_o they_o be_v sin_n some_o only_o be_v by_o way_n of_o discipline_n to_o amend_v and_o correct_v and_o make_v one_o ashamed_a of_o his_o sin_n as_o when_o magistrate_n rebuke_v offender_n and_o minister_n in_o their_o sermon_n sharp_o reproove_v sin_n as_o the_o prophet_n isay_n call_v the_o chief_a of_o israel_n prince_n of_o sodom_n c._n 1.10_o and_o s._n paul_n say_v o_o you_o foolish_a galatian_n and_o such_o kind_n of_o reproach_n be_v not_o sin_n 2._o reproachful_a and_o revile_v word_n proceed_v either_o from_o anger_n and_o desire_v of_o revenge_n as_o here_o in_o shemei_n or_o from_o pride_n as_o in_o rabsake_v against_o hezekiah_n or_o from_o foolishness_n as_o nabal_n revile_v david_n 3._o how_o we_o be_v to_o behave_v ourselves_o in_o bear_v of_o reproach_n these_o consideration_n be_v necessary_a 1._o that_o general_o we_o must_v follow_v that_o rule_n of_o christ_n if_o one_o smite_v we_o on_o the_o one_o cheek_n we_o shall_v turn_v to_o he_o the_o other_o also_o that_o be_v not_o always_o to_o do_v so_o in_o fact_n for_o christ_n be_v smite_v upon_o one_o cheek_n do_v not_o turn_v the_o other_o but_o our_o heart_n must_v always_o be_v prepare_v for_o christ_n sake_n to_o suffer_v all_o wrong_n in_o word_n and_o in_o deed_n 2._o yet_o there_o be_v a_o time_n when_o a_o fool_n must_v be_v answer_v in_o his_o foolishness_n and_o a_o reviler_n must_v not_o be_v suffer_v to_o go_v away_o without_o a_o rebuke_n as_o if_o either_o his_o reproach_n tend_v to_o the_o hindrance_n of_o our_o good_a name_n or_o our_o brother_n and_o they_o which_o hear_v it_o be_v by_o our_o silence_n apt_a to_o believe_v the_o slander_n and_o if_o a_o discreet_a reproof_n may_v be_v a_o mean_n to_o make_v he_o see_v his_o sin_n 3._o and_o there_o be_v a_o time_n when_o a_o fool_n be_v not_o to_o be_v answer_v in_o his_o foolishness_n lest_o we_o be_v like_o he_o 16.4_o prov._n 16.4_o if_o we_o think_v that_o we_o shall_v grow_v too_o hot_a and_o choleric_a and_o exceed_v measure_n in_o reprove_v it_o be_v better_a for_o we_o to_o hold_v our_o peace_n and_o when_o we_o see_v in_o respect_n of_o the_o slanderer_n that_o his_o word_n be_v of_o no_o credit_n and_o our_o defence_n need_v not_o in_o respect_n of_o the_o stander_n by_o or_o if_o the_o reviler_n be_v like_a to_o be_v more_o provoke_v by_o our_o admonition_n in_o all_o these_o case_n it_o be_v better_a to_o be_v silent_a 4._o and_o where_o defence_n be_v needful_a it_o be_v not_o only_o lawful_a for_o we_o private_o to_o rebuke_v the_o slanderer_n but_o to_o make_v complaint_n unto_o the_o magistrate_n to_o preserve_v our_o good_a name_n as_o a_o thief_n of_o our_o good_n may_v be_v bring_v before_o the_o magistrate_n so_o much_o more_o he_o that_o steal_v away_o our_o good_a name_n 5._o and_o as_o concern_v david_n it_o be_v a_o worthy_a and_o commendable_a part_n in_o he_o to_o bear_v shemeis_n slanderous_a speech_n for_o he_o be_v innocent_a he_o therein_o consider_v the_o lord_n purpose_v to_o try_v he_o it_o be_v then_o no_o time_n for_o he_o to_o seek_v revenge_n he_o have_v opportunity_n offer_v afterward_o to_o meet_v with_o this_o reviler_n mart._n 7._o quest._n v._o 10._o how_o the_o lord_n be_v say_v to_o have_v bid_v shemei_n curse_v david_n and_o how_o sin_n stand_v with_o the_o will_n of_o god_n and_o whether_o he_o be_v any_o way_n the_o author_n thereof_o 1._o first_o that_o god_n be_v no_o way_n the_o author_n of_o sin_n by_o these_o and_o such_o like_a reason_n it_o be_v make_v plain_a 1._o god_n be_v not_o the_o author_n of_o any_o thing_n whereby_o a_o man_n be_v make_v worse_o for_o if_o a_o artificer_n will_v not_o mar_v his_o own_o work_n much_o less_o god_n but_o by_o sin_n man_n become_v much_o worse_a 2._o god_n be_v the_o revenger_n of_o sin_n therefore_o not_o the_o author_n 3._o god_n hate_v nothing_o which_o he_o have_v make_v but_o he_o hate_v sin_n 4._o he_o that_o do_v or_o procure_v sin_n be_v a_o sinner_n but_o god_n can_v without_o horrible_a blasphemy_n be_v say_v to_o be_v a_o sinner_n 5._o if_o god_n shall_v provoke_v unto_o sin_n we_o shall_v make_v he_o a_o dissembler_n &_o a_o hypocrite_n who_o forbid_v one_o thing_n and_o yet_o do_v a_o other_o 6._o the_o lord_n say_v by_o his_o prophet_n hosea_n thy_o destruction_n be_v of_o thyself_o than_o sin_n also_o the_o cause_n of_o destruction_n be_v of_o ourselves_o 7._o our_o saviour_n say_v that_o when_o the_o devil_n speak_v a_o lie_n he_o speak_v of_o his_o own_o sin_n then_o be_v peculiar_a unto_o the_o devil_n therefore_o nor_o to_o god_n 8._o christ_n weep_v over_o jerusalem_n be_v grieve_v for_o the_o calamity_n that_o shall_v befall_v it_o much_o more_o be_v he_o grieve_v for_o sin_n which_o be_v the_o cause_n thereof_o then_o be_v he_o not_o the_o author_n of_o sin_n 9_o tyrant_n make_v severe_a law_n and_o then_o compel_v man_n to_o break_v they_o that_o they_o may_v punish_v they_o so_o god_n shall_v be_v a_o tyrant_n if_o he_o procure_v or_o make_v man_n sin_n and_o transgress_v his_o law_n 10._o if_o god_n be_v the_o author_n of_o sin_n he_o can_v not_o be_v the_o judge_n of_o the_o world_n 11._o if_o god_n any_o way_n shall_v stir_v up_o unto_o sin_n there_o must_v needs_o be_v two_o contrary_a will_n in_o god_n one_o whereby_o he_o will_v sin_n to_o be_v the_o other_o whereby_o he_o dislike_v it_o and_o be_v displease_v at_o it_o 12._o the_o wicked_a shall_v be_v in_o no_o fault_n for_o they_o may_v turn_v all_o the_o blame_n upon_o god_n 13._o man_n have_v no_o reason_n to_o be_v grieve_v for_o their_o sin_n but_o to_o rejoice_v see_v they_o do_v that_o which_o god_n be_v the_o author_n of_o if_o he_o be_v the_o author_n or_o worker_n of_o sin_n 14._o if_o god_n will_v have_v man_n save_v than_o he_o will_v have_v they_o also_o use_v the_o mean_n unto_o salvation_n then_o will_v he_o not_o have_v they_o sin_n which_o do_v hinder_v their_o salvation_n 2._o second_o the_o reason_n on_o the_o contrary_a that_o god_n may_v be_v charge_v with_o sin_n be_v these_o 1._o the_o apostle_n say_v rom._n 1.26_o that_o god_n give_v up_o the_o gentile_n to_o vile_a affection_n 2._o the_o lord_n be_v say_v to_o have_v harden_v pharaoh_n heart_n and_o isa._n 6.10_o to_o make_v the_o eye_n of_o the_o israelite_n heavy_a and_o to_o shut_v their_o eye_n 3._o we_o say_v in_o the_o lord_n prayer_n lead_v we_o not_o into_o temptation_n 4._o he_o that_o be_v the_o cause_n of_o the_o cause_n be_v the_o cause_n of_o the_o effect_n procure_v by_o that_o cause_n but_o god_n be_v the_o cause_n and_o creator_n of_o man_n will_n and_o affection_n which_o be_v the_o cause_n of_o sin_n he_o may_v seem_v then_o to_o be_v the_o cause_n of_o sin_n 5._o the_o lord_n say_v to_o the_o spirit_n that_o offer_v to_o go_v &_o be_v a_o false_a spirit_n in_o the_o mouth_n of_o ahabs_n prophet_n go_v and_o prosper_v 1._o king_n 22._o 6._o sin_n be_v a_o action_n but_o all_o action_n proceed_v from_o god_n the_o first_o mover_n and_o beginner_n
