of_o his_o spirit_n have_v i_o upon_o i_o that_o can_v find_v no_o rest_n at_o all_o twelve_o murmur_a and_o discontent_a have_v this_o evil_a in_o it_o there_o be_v a_o absolute_a necessity_n that_o

in_o this_o world_n god_n have_v so_o order_v thing_n that_o affliction_n must_v befall_v we_o and_o if_o we_o will_v complain_v and_o be_v discontent_v upon_o every_o cross_n and_o affliction_n we_o must_v complain_v and_o be_v discontent_n all_o the_o day_n of_o our_o life_n yea_o god_n in_o just_a judgement_n will_v let_v thing_n fall_v out_o on_o purpose_n to_o vex_v those_o that_o have_v vex_v spirit_n and_o discontent_a heart_n and_o therefore_o there_o be_v a_o necessity_n that_o they_o shall_v live_v disquiet_v all_o their_o day_n and_o man_n will_v not_o much_o care_n to_o

nay_o if_o you_o be_v not_o please_v mend_v yourselves_o when_o you_o will_v if_o you_o have_v a_o servant_n not_o content_a with_o his_o diet_n and_o wage_n and_o work_v you_o say_v mend_v

the_o people_n of_o israel_n how_o strange_o they_o fall_v to_o their_o murmur_v again_o and_o again_o do_v but_o observe_v three_o text_n of_o scripture_n for_o that_o the_o first_o in_o the_o 15._o of_o exod._n at_o the_o beginning_n there_o you_o shall_v have_v moses_n and_o the_o congregation_n sing_v to_o god_n and_o blessing_n god_n for_o his_o mercy_n then_o sing_v moses_n and_o the_o child_n of_o israel_n this_o song_n unto_o the_o lord_n and_o speak_v say_v i_o will_v sing_v unto_o the_o lord_n for_o he_o have_v triumph_v glorious_o the_o horse_n and_o his_o rider_n have_v he_o throw_v into_o the_o sea_n and_o then_o the_o lord_n be_v my_o strength_n and_o song_n and_o he_o be_v become_v my_o salvation_n he_o be_v my_o god_n and_o i_o will_v prepare_v he_o a_o habitation_n my_o father_n god_n and_o i_o will_v exalt_v he_o and_o so_o he_o go_v on_o and_o who_o be_v like_a unto_o thou_o o_o lord_n among_o the_o god_n who_o be_v like_o thou_o glorious_a in_o holiness_n fearful_a in_o praise_n do_v wonder_n thus_o their_o heart_n triumph_v in_o god_n but_o mark_v before_o the_o chapter_n be_v end_v in_o the_o 23._o verse_n when_o they_o come_v to_o marah_n in_o the_o same_o chapter_n they_o can_v not_o drink_v of_o the_o water_n of_o marah_n for_o they_o be_v bitter_a therefore_o the_o name_n of_o it_o be_v call_v marah_n and_o the_o people_n murmur_v against_o moses_n after_o so_o great_a a_o mercy_n as_o this_o be_v what_o unthankfulness_n be_v there_o here_o in_o their_o murmur_a then_o god_n give_v they_o water_n but_o in_o the_o very_a next_o chapter_n they_o fall_v to_o their_o murmur_a you_o read_v not_o that_o they_o be_v humble_v for_o their_o former_a murmur_a and_o therefore_o they_o murmur_v again_o exod._n 16.1_o etc._n etc._n all_o the_o congregation_n of_o the_o child_n of_o israel_n come_v to_o the_o wilderness_n of_o sin_n etc._n etc._n and_o the_o whole_a congregation_n in_o the_o second_o verse_n of_o the_o child_n of_o israel_n murmur_v against_o moses_n and_o against_o aaron_n in_o the_o wilderness_n and_o the_o child_n of_o israel_n say_v unto_o they_o will_v to_o god_n we_o have_v die_v by_o the_o hand_n of_o the_o lord_n in_o the_o land_n of_o egypt_n when_o we_o sit_v by_o the_o fleshpot_n and_o when_o we_o do_v eat_v bread_n to_o the_o full_a now_o they_o want_v flesh_n they_o want_v water_n before_o but_o now_o they_o want_v meat_n they_o fall_v to_o murmur_v again_o they_o be_v not_o humble_v for_o this_o murmur_a against_o god_n neither_o when_o god_n give_v they_o flesh_n according_a to_o their_o desire_n but_o they_o fall_v to_o murmur_v again_o they_o want_v somewhat_o else_o in_o the_o very_a next_o chapter_n they_o go_v not_o far_o in_o the_o 17._o of_o exod._n beginning_n and_o all_o the_o congregation_n of_o the_o child_n of_o israel_n journy_v from_o the_o wilderness_n of_o sin_n and_o pitch_v in_o rephadim_n and_o there_o be_v no_o water_n for_o the_o people_n to_o drink_v then_o in_o the_o second_o verse_n wherefore_o the_o people_n do_v chide_v with_o moses_n and_o say_v give_v we_o water_n that_o we_o may_v drink_v and_o moses_n say_v unto_o they_o why_o chide_v you_o with_o i_o wherefore_o do_v you_o tempt_v the_o lord_n and_o in_o the_o three_o verse_n and_o the_o people_n thirst_v there_o for_o water_n and_o the_o people_n murmur_v against_o moses_n and_o say_v wherefore_o be_v this_o that_o thou_o have_v bring_v we_o up_o out_o of_o egypt_n to_o kill_v we_o and_o our_o child_n and_o our_o cattle_n with_o thirst_n so_o one_o time_n after_o another_o still_o as_o soon_o as_o ever_o they_o have_v receive_v the_o mercy_n than_o they_o be_v a_o little_a quiet_v but_o they_o be_v not_o humble_v i_o bring_v these_o scripture_n for_o this_o to_o show_v that_o if_o we_o have_v not_o be_v humble_v for_o murmur_v the_o next_o cross_n that_o we_o meet_v withal_o we_o will_v fall_v to_o murmur_v again_o there_o be_v divers_a aggravation_n of_o this_o sin_n of_o murmur_a i_o will_v mention_v but_o one_o now_o and_o i_o shall_v but_o begin_v that_o the_o first_o aggravation_n be_v this_o to_o murmur_v when_o we_o enjoy_v abundance_n of_o mercy_n the_o great_a and_o the_o more_o abundant_a the_o mercy_n be_v that_o we_o enjoy_v the_o great_a and_o the_o vile_a be_v the_o sin_n of_o murmur_a as_o here_o now_o when_o god_n have_v new_o deliver_v they_o out_o of_o the_o house_n of_o bondage_n for_o they_o now_o to_o murmur_v because_o they_o want_v some_o few_o particular_n that_o they_o desire_v oh_o to_o sin_n against_o god_n after_o a_o

his_o estate_n in_o his_o deal_n with_o man_n we_o will_v not_o think_v his_o condition_n so_o happy_a one_o may_v have_v a_o very_a fine_a new_a shoe_n but_o no_o body_n know_v where_o it_o pinch_v he_o but_o he_o that_o have_v it_o on_o so_o you_o think_v such_o and_o such_o man_n be_v happy_a but_o they_o may_v have_v many_o trouble_n that_o you_o little_o think_v of_o 2._o there_o be_v a_o

man_n be_v honey_n we_o know_v do_v invite_v bee_n and_o wasp_n unto_o it_o and_o so_o the_o sweet_a of_o prosperity_n do_v invite_v the_o devil_n and_o temptation_n man_n that_o be_v in_o a_o

and_o so_o beelzebub_n come_v where_o the_o honey_n of_o prosperity_n be_v they_o be_v in_o very_o great_a danger_n of_o temptation_n that_o be_v in_o a_o prosperous_a condition_n the_o danger_n of_o

say_v how_o hard_o it_o be_v for_o a_o rich_a man_n to_o enter_v into_o the_o kingdom_n of_o heaven_n such_o a_o text_n shall_v make_v poor_a people_n to_o be_v content_v with_o their_o estate_n we_o

amiss_o no_o they_o have_v not_o do_v any_o thing_n that_o provoke_v god_n but_o the_o meaning_n be_v this_o take_v a_o great_a care_n of_o the_o family_n of_o the_o kohathite_n to_o instruct_v they_o in_o their_o duty_n that_o they_o be_v to_o do_v for_o say_v god_n they_o be_v in_o a_o great_a deal_n of_o danger_n be_v to_o serve_v in_o the_o most_o holy_a thing_n if_o they_o shall_v go_v in_o
