both Christen and Heathen haue detested the same vice him that committed it what punishments some people executed vpon such offenders And partly I haue shewed for I thinke no man can fully declare it what hurt there groweth by vsurie to the Church of God to the common weale I haue also shewed the abuse of trades by that they are generally contracted with vsurie in this our time and answered to some obiections of the adversaries And then hauing giuen a taste of honest and lawfull occupying I finish that matter But before I beginne to speake of vsurie I haue according to my simple knowledge made plaine the text and gathered thereon such notes as I thought apt and profitabe for this our time plainely according to the plaine speaking of my Patrone and example Sophonie without qualifications For it is not tyme to dallye or sooth men nowe in their doings no more than it was in Sophonies time And in the latter ende of my theame where it is sayde that God will roote out and destroye such as neyther séeke after God nor regarde him there I take occasion to examine by the doings of men whether they at this day doe séeke for God and regarde him or not for by the fruite the trée is knowne And so amongest the manyfolde fruites of infidelitie inerplicable I speake perticularly of fewe but speciallye of Vsurie for the reason before alleadged Wherin though such methode be not obserued as some maye thinke perhaps Art requireth yet I haue kept that course therein which I haue thought most profitable And though in respect of mine owne weakenesse and the subtiltie of the aduersaries I am not easilye drawne to set out my simple doings to the worlde in print yet by the earnest procurements of sundry worshipfull men with the speciall requestes of manye my friendes I haue bene mooued to print the same And the rather I haue bene moued so to doe bicause I would hereby eyther stoppe the mouthes of the aduersaries and of such as haue priuately made childish obiections to this doctrine not worthy to be aunswered or else stirre them to make stronger reasons against it if they can And also if they know another truth herein to set out their mindes in writing to the world and not mutter in corners For I woulde willingly be founde a lyer vpon condition that so manye others might be proued iust dooers Which I am perswaded will not be with all the cunning the aduersaries haue no thoughe they take the Deuill to helpe them Furthermore though I haue not kept the very same wordes in writing that I vsed in speaking bicause words vttered with iesture will not alwayes fit so well in writing yet the matter and substance I haue obserued fullye and wholy With some things added in the former part which through want of memorie were omitted whē I preached and in the latter part I haue of purpose added some thinges touching Vsurie which I spoke in my former Sermons to the ende that my minde in this matter of vsurie might the more fully appeare to them that are desirous to knowe it And if my trauaile herein shall doe any good I shall thinke it wel bestowed And the more good it doth the more shall be my comfort Let God haue the glory for euer and so good christen reader farewell Sophonias cap. Primo I Will gather vp all things in the lande saith the Lord I will gather vp man and beast I will gather vp the fowles in the ayre and the fishe in the waters and destructions shall be to the wicked I will vtterly roote out the men from of the lande sayth the Lord I will stretch out my hande vppon Iuda and vppon all the indwellers at Ierusalem Thus will I roote out the remnants of Baall from this place and the names of the Chemarims with the Priests yea and such as vpon the house toppes doe woorship and bowe themselues to the host of heauen which sweare by the Lorde and by their Malchom also Which start backe from the Lorde and neyther seeke after the Lorde nor regarde him WE reade in the fourth Booke of Kings also in the seconde of the Chronicles that after the death of good Ezechias wicked Manasses succéeded king of Iuda Ierusalem who did euil in the sight of the Lorde as did the heathen whom the Lord cast out before the children of Israeil for he set vp all the abhominations which his father put downe as hill aultars Idoll groues aultars vnto Baall as Ahab did and worshipped that host of heauen He offered his sonne in fire brought an Idol into the Lords temple and gaue héede to witchcraft and sorcerie and mainteyned workers with spirites and fortune tellers Whereby he made Iuda and the indwellers of Ierusalem to erre and to doe worse than the Heathen whome the Lorde destroyed before them Wherefore the Lorde brought him into the handes of the Assirian Captaines his enimies who bounde him in chaines and led him prisoner to Babilon where he repented and humbled himselfe before the Lord god And being restored to his kingdome he sought a reformation according to the will of God whome he learned more exactlye to knowe by chaines and prison than ever he did before by his crowne and scepter And after Manasses death his sonne Amon was made king in his place who walked in all the abhominations of his father did that which was euill in the sight of the Lorde He neither regarded the commaundement of God nor the example of his fathers repentance Wherefore God punished his sinne by sinne what time his seruantes conspired and slewe him in his owne house After whose death about 3312. yeares from the making of the worlde and. 658. yeares before the incarnation of Christ the sonne of Amon godlye Iosias at the age of eyght yeares was made king ouer Iuda and Ierusalem He did that which was right in the sight of the Lorde and walked in the wayes of his father Dauid neyther bowed to the right hande nor to the left Hée spéedilye began to séeke the Lorde and in the twelfth yeare of his reygne he beganne to purge Iuda and Ierusalem from Idolatrie and so reformed religion not only in Iuda and Ierusalem but also amongst his neyghbours that were left in Israell when the most part of them were led away captiue by the Assirians he destroyed the hill aultars Idoll groues and Images and burnt the bones of the Idolatrous sacrificers vppon their owne altars as was prophecied of him aboue 350. yeres before In the .xiij. yeare of his reigne the Prophet Ieremie began to prophecie and the King in the .xviij. yeare of hys reigne going about to repaire the temple the booke of Gods lawe was found which long time before through the tyrannie and Idolatrie of Princes and negligence of the Priestes lay hid and vnknowne Now when this good King vnderstoode of this booke and had heard it reade
