own_o sword_n so_o that_o in_o the_o first_o verse_n he_o take_v courage_n through_o faith_n in_o god_n and_o sing_v in_o the_o time_n of_o trouble_n god_n shall_v hide_v i_o in_o his_o tabernacle_n in_o the_o secret_a place_n of_o his_o pavilion_n shall_v he_o hide_v i_o and_o set_v i_o upon_o a_o rock_n and_o in_o this_o verse_n now_o shall_v he_o lift_v up_o my_o head_n above_o my_o enemy_n round_o about_o i_o when_o saul_n be_v dead_a his_o mighty_a enemy_n he_o take_v the_o government_n of_o his_o kingdom_n but_o be_v not_o yet_o free_a from_o enemy_n whereby_o we_o may_v see_v that_o the_o death_n of_o one_o enemy_n be_v the_o life_n of_o another_o and_o to_o teach_v we_o not_o to_o be_v secure_a at_o any_o time_n but_o when_o one_o danger_n be_v past_a to_o look_v for_o another_o yet_o not_o without_o hope_n though_o cast_v down_o in_o the_o end_n to_o be_v lift_v up_o and_o raise_v again_o for_o as_o the_o moon_n ware_v full_a and_o decrease_v and_o the_o sea_n eb_v and_o

david_n shall_v he_o lift_v up_o my_o head_n as_o if_o he_o can_v limit_v god_n the_o time_n to_o raise_v he_o no_o doubt_n it_o be_v not_o his_o meaning_n to_o tie_v god_n to_o a_o certain_a time_n but_o when_o saul_n his_o predecessor_n be_v dead_a &_o the_o crown_n open_v sor_n he_o he_o may_v well_o say_v now_o that_o be_v now_o have_v god_n appoint_v the_o time_n to_o bring_v that_o to_o

he_o for_o he_o have_v many_o as_o before_o be_v show_v and_o net_n a_o few_o even_o of_o saul_n follower_n after_o who_o when_o they_o see_v david_n exalt_v may_v envy_v his_o advancement_n be_v lift_v up_o so_o far_o above_o they_o and_o have_v then_o power_n to_o recompense_v their_o wickedness_n against_o he_o but_o he_o have_v no_o revengeful_a spirit_n if_o he_o have_v have_v he_o will_v have_v revenge_v himself_o upon_o shemey_n that_o rail_v on_o he_o and_o curse_v he_o and_o upon_o doeg_n that_o discover_v his_o abode_n to_o saul_n neither_o of_o these_o do_v he_o touch_v but_o as_o touch_v shemey_n though_o he_o swear_v unto_o he_o that_o he_o will_v not_o slay_v he_o yet_o he_o command_v solomon_n that_o he_o shall_v cause_v his_o hoar_a head_n to_o go_v to_o the_o grave_n with_o blood_n which_o it_o seem_v he_o speak_v by_o the_o spirit_n of_o pprophecy_n foreseeing_a that_o he_o shall_v die_v by_o the_o sword_n thus_o david_n deliver_v from_o his_o enemy_n and_o lift_v up_o above_o they_o sheweth_z the_o wonderful_a power_n of_o god_n in_o preserve_v he_o and_o his_o providence_n and_o love_n in_o advance_v he_o yet_o continue_v he_o not_o long_o without_o his_o trouble_n and_o enemy_n to_o exercise_v he_o though_o he_o be_v now_o establish_v in_o his_o kingdom_n for_o he_o have_v peace_n &_o security_n a_o while_n we_o find_v into_o what_o sin_n he_o fall_v though_o he_o be_v advance_v above_o his_o corporal_a enemy_n his_o spiritual_a foe_n grow_v strong_a than_o he_o therefore_o it_o be_v good_a that_o the_o child_n of_o god_n though_o never_o so_o great_a in_o the_o world_n have_v affliction_n and_o trouble_n lest_o they_o forget_v god_n as_o this_o godly_a king_n for_o a_o time_n do_v yet_o upon_o repentance_n god_n raise_v he_o again_o which_o example_n of_o sin_v we_o must_v avoid_v and_o imitate_v his_o repentance_n by_o his_o assure_a confidence_n in_o god_n he_o still_o withstand_v and_o prevail_v against_o all_o that_o rise_v up_o against_o he_o none_o can_v make_v he_o afraid_a but_o rest_v still_o assure_v that_o god_n will_v now_o namely_o whensoever_o he_o be_v beset_v with_o danger_n lift_v up_o his_o head_n above_o all_o his_o enemy_n round_o about_o he_o his_o enemy_n in_o their_o policy_n become_v fool_n in_o their_o strength_n weak_a and_o all_o their_o device_n bring_v to_o nought_o so_o that_o david_n may_v well_o sing_v this_o joyful_a song_n the_o lord_n have_v lift_v up_o my_o head_n above_o all_o my_o enemy_n round_o about_o i_o nothing_o prevail_v without_o or_o against_o god_n none_o can_v be_v lift_v up_o to_o sit_v safe_o without_o god_n therefore_o the_o man_n that_o be_v wise_a be_v advance_v will-imitate_a david_n in_o faith_n and_o a_o holy_a resolution_n then_o shall_v he_o mount_v that_o rock_n that_o shall_v never_o be_v move_v god_n shall_v maintain_v his_o lot_n so_o that_o trouble_n shall_v not_o dismay_v he_o enemy_n shall_v not_o hurt_v he_o neither_o shall_v any_o

fall_n be_v amotive_n to_o they_o to_o be_v watchful_a over_o their_o way_n for_o the_o prevent_n of_o like_a danger_n and_o to_o beware_v of_o security_n for_o easy_a it_o be_v for_o a_o man_n to_o

peter_n fall_v and_o rise_v again_o but_o judas_n fall_v and_o that_o final_o david_n have_v a_o eye_n unto_o his_o way_n and_o respect_n unto_o his_o walking_n to_o prevent_v a_o second_o fall_n so_o as_o his_o enemy_n can_v not_o prevail_v yet_o he_o confess_v that_o it_o be_v the_o lord_n that_o support_v he_o and_o make_v he_o to_o abide_v in_o safety_n it_o be_v not_o his_o own_o power_n or_o
