evil_n 2_o sam_n 24.10_o and_o now_o i_o beseech_v thou_o take_v away_o the_o iniquity_n of_o thy_o servant_n for_o i_o have_v do_v very_o foolish_o the_o occasion_n of_o these_o word_n be_v the_o hand_n of_o god_n upon_o the_o child_n of_o israel_n for_o david_n sin_n of_o number_v the_o people_n you_o read_v in_o verse_n 2._o that_o david_n command_v joab_n to_o go_v and_o number_v the_o people_n and_o at_o the_o first_o joab_n he_o dissuade_v he_o but_o you_o will_v say_v be_v it_o not_o lawful_a to_o number_v the_o people_n do_v not_o moses_n the_o same_o in_o the_o wilderness_n and_o joshua_n and_o nehemiah_n yea_o but_o joab_n see_v the_o pride_n of_o david_n heart_n in_o it_o as_o appear_v by_o his_o answer_n in_o verse_n 3._o and_o joab_n say_v unto_o the_o king_n now_o the_o lord_n thy_o god_n add_v unto_o the_o people_n how_o many_o soever_o they_o be_v a_o hundred_o fold_n but_o why_o do_v my_o lord_n the_o king_n delight_n in_o this_o thing_n notwithstanding_o the_o king_n word_n prevail_v against_o joab_n though_o indeed_o to_o his_o trouble_n and_o israel_n cost_n happy_a have_v it_o be_v for_o david_n and_o israel_n too_o if_o the_o work_n have_v not_o

thousand_o well_o but_o what_o be_v the_o fruit_n what_o be_v the_o effect_n of_o this_o 1._o you_o read_v david_n heart_n smite_v he_o verse_n 10._o that_o be_v his_o conscience_n accuse_v he_o if_o conscience_n be_v not_o a_o bridle_n it_o will_v be_v a_o whip_n if_o it_o be_v not_o a_o curb_n it_o will_v be_v a_o scourge_n if_o you_o will_v not_o hear_v the_o warning_n you_o shall_v feel_v the_o lashing_n of_o conscience_n if_o it_o do_v not_o restrain_v from_o sin_n monendo_fw-la by_o admonition_n it_o will_v put_v we_o to_o pain_n in_o sin_n mordendo_fw-la by_o contrition_n 2._o but_o there_o be_v not_o all_o god_n will_v punish_v he_o for_o the_o sin_n and_o you_o may_v read_v the_o sin_n in_o the_o punishment_n he_o have_v glory_v in_o the_o number_n and_o therefore_o god_n

his_o enemy_n or_o three_o day_n pestilence_n he_o will_v take_v every_o one_o be_v flagellum_fw-la mundans_fw-la a_o sweep_a scourge_n but_o mark_v david_n behaviour_n god_n threaten_v judgement_n and_o david_n go_v and_o mourn_v for_o sin_n for_o david_n heart_n smite_v and_o his_o prayer_n though_o set_v before_o yet_o seem_v to_o be_v afterward_o and_o a_o effect_n of_o the_o prophet_n discovery_n of_o sin_n as_o appear_v by_o the_o verse_n follow_v the_o text_n for_o when_o david_n be_v up_o in_o the_o morning_n the_o word_n of_o the_o lord_n come_v unto_o gad_n david_n seer_n where_o you_o see_v it_o be_v render_v as_o a_o reason_n why_o his_o heart_n smite_v he_o and_o why_o he_o pray_v thus_o because_o the_o prophet_n have_v be_v with_o he_o and_o have_v convince_v he_o of_o his_o sin_n and_o denounce_v god_n judgement_n against_o he_o whereupon_o david_n heart_n smite_v he_o and_o he_o pray_v take_v away_o the_o iniquity_n of_o thy_o servant_n for_o i_o have_v do_v very_o foolish_o but_o here_o it_o may_v be_v demand_v why_o when_o god_n threaten_v judgement_n david_n shall_v go_v and_o pray_v for_o pardon_n of_o sin_n why_o do_v he_o not_o desire_n god_n rather_o to_o forbear_v his_o stroke_n to_o avert_v and_o turn_v away_o his_o wrath_n than_o mere_o to_o beg_v pardon_n of_o sin_n or_o if_o he_o have_v desire_v this_o yet_o why_o do_v he_o not_o beg_v the_o other_o as_o well_o as_o that_o and_o join_v they_o together_o in_o the_o same_o petition_n answ_n 1._o to_o teach_v we_o in_o all_o the_o pressure_n and_o evil_n upon_o our_o outward_a man_n to_o turn_v our_o thought_n inward_a and_o lament_v sin_n 2._o because_o he_o see_v sin_v the_o cause_n of_o judgement_n and_o therefore_o desire_v the_o remove_n of_o this_o that_o so_o the_o other_o may_v be_v withdraw_v also_o 3._o because_o he_o know_v the_o judgement_n can_v never_o be_v remove_v in_o mercy_n unless_o the_o sin_n be_v take_v away_o every_o preservation_n be_v but_o a_o reservation_n every_o deliverance_n be_v in_o justice_n not_o in_o mercy_n if_o sin_n be_v not_o take_v away_o 4._o he_o be_v more_o apprehensive_a of_o the_o dishonour_v of_o god_n by_o his_o sin_n than_o of_o any_o judgement_n that_o his_o sin_n have_v bring_v upon_o he_o or_o 5._o he_o see_v sin_n the_o great_a evil_n and_o therefore_o seek_v the_o redress_n of_o that_o rather_o than_o of_o any_o other_o evil_n take_v away_o the_o iniquity_n of_o thy_o servant_n in_o the_o text_n you_o may_v observe_v two_o part_n of_o prayer_n i._o confession_n ii_o petition_n 1._o confession_n with_o
