may_v permit_v his_o church_n to_o be_v sore_o afflict_v as_o at_o this_o day_n but_o it_o be_v but_o to_o illustrate_v his_o own_o glory_n the_o more_o in_o her_o support_n and_o deliverance_n 3._o god_n be_v unchangeable_a his_o enemy_n shall_v be_v destroy_v they_o shall_v all_o die_v and_o perish_v i_o mean_v his_o incorrigible_a implacable_a enemy_n who_o will_v not_o stoop_v to_o the_o

17.14_o he_o let_v they_o enjoy_v some_o of_o the_o best_a of_o outward_a comfort_n and_o contentment_n and_o that_o in_o great_a fullness_n which_o oftentimes_o prove_v a_o great_a burden_n and_o

many_o time_n with_o we_o but_o remember_v that_o god_n be_v unchangeable_a and_o be_v unchangeable_a though_o he_o may_v permit_v he_o and_o his_o people_n enemy_n to_o practice_v and_o prosper_v for_o a_o time_n yet_o not_o always_o no_o they_o shall_v be_v destroy_v and_o that_o with_o a_o great_a destruction_n pray_v observe_v how_o thing_n issue_v at_o last_o in_o that_o very_a psalm_n

that_o i_o may_v have_v much_o of_o god_n presence_n with_o i_o and_o may_v always_o have_v good_a thought_n of_o he_o and_o his_o dispensation_n towards_o i_o in_o all_o he_o do_v or_o shall_v lay_v
