promise_v make_v unto_o david_n for_o the_o which_o he_o desire_v of_o god_n that_o he_o will_v not_o turn_v away_o the_o face_n of_o his_o anoint_a that_o be_v to_o say_v of_o the_o king_n which_o

thing_n he_o pray_v for_o when_o he_o desire_v that_o the_o face_n of_o the_o anoint_a may_v not_o be_v take_v away_o now_o the_o cause_n why_o he_o desire_v these_o thing_n be_v for_o that_o this_o

&_o the_o persecutor_n of_o his_o word_n which_o be_v in_o deed_n utter_o ignorant_a what_o true_a prayer_n be_v or_o how_o they_o ought_v to_o pray_v verse_n 11._o the_o lord_n have_v swear_v in_o

second_o part_n of_o the_o psalm_n policy_n in_o the_o which_o he_o pray_v for_o the_o politic_a or_o corporal_a kingdom_n for_o these_o two_o kingdom_n namely_o the_o politic_a and_o the_o spiritual_a kingdom_n although_o they_o be_v far_o unlike_a yet_o be_v they_o so_o join_v together_o that_o the_o one_o can_v not_o stand_v without_o the_o other_o for_o where_o politic_a peace_n be_v

to_o give_v thanks_n unto_o god_n and_o this_o prayer_n as_o i_o have_v say_v be_v also_o ground_v upon_o the_o promise_v of_o god_n for_o in_o prayer_n we_o must_v ask_v nothing_o but_o that_o we_o be_v certain_o persuade_v we_o may_v or_o aught_o to_o pray_v for_o or_o may_v be_v obtain_v now_o that_o we_o may_v be_v certain_a how_o to_o pray_v &_o what_o to_o ask_v there_o be_v not_o only_o a_o commandment_n as_o touch_v prayer_n set_v forth_o unto_o we_o but_o also_o a_o certain_a form_n of_o prayer_n and_o the_o very_a word_n whereby_o we_o be_v teach_v how_o to_o pray_v and_o what_o we_o shall_v pray_v for_o and_o moreover_o certain_a cause_n express_v for_o the_o which_o we_o may_v be_v assure_v that_o our_o prayer_n please_v god_n as_o when_o we_o pray_v for_o the_o sanctify_a of_o the_o name_n of_o god_n the_o come_n of_o his_o kingdom_n etc_n etc_n and_o here_o be_v also_o to_o be_v note_v that_o this_o promise_n be_v confirm_v with_o a_o oath_n that_o it_o may_v be_v the_o more_o sure_a and_o certain_a this_o promise_n as_o touch_v the_o temporal_a kingdom_n church_n as_o it_o be_v great_a so_o be_v it_o a_o occasion_n to_o many_o holy_a prophet_n of_o great_a

secure_a and_o profane_a spirit_n beware_v proud_a &_o presumptuous_a and_o through_o the_o confidence_n they_o have_v in_o these_o promise_n they_o afterward_o persecute_v the_o godly_a as_o we_o may_v see_v by_o manifest_a example_n in_o the_o prophet_n who_o because_o they_o reprove_v the_o idolatry_n of_o the_o king_n and_o condemn_v their_o false_a and_o damnable_a worship_n threaten_v the_o destruction_n of_o the_o kingdom_n and_o of_o the_o people_n unless_o they_o will_v forsake_v their_o abomination_n &_o turn_v unto_o the_o lord_n be_v torment_v and_o put_v to_o death_n as_o heretic_n for_o that_o they_o seem_v to_o speak_v against_o this_o and_o other_o promise_n prophet_n and_o in_o deed_n this_o seem_v to_o be_v a_o invincible_a argument_n which_o they_o use_v against_o the_o prophet_n if_o god_n say_v they_o have_v promise_v that_o the_o son_n of_o david_n shall_v sit_v upon_o the_o throne_n of_o david_n for_o ever_o it_o be_v impossible_a that_o the_o

this_o promise_n of_o christ_n when_o he_o faith_n i_o will_v be_v with_o you_o unto_o the_o end_n of_o the_o world_n as_o though_o this_o pertain_v to_o the_o establish_n of_o the_o pope_n tyranny_n so_o that_o sweet_a consolation_n the_o gate_n of_o hell_n shall_v not_o prevail_v etc_n etc_n afterward_o become_v bloody_a and_o cruel_a and_o be_v a_o occasion_n of_o death_n and_o destruction_n of_o many_o saint_n for_o that_o the_o pope_n do_v apply_v it_o unto_o himself_o and_o abuse_v it_o for_o the_o stablish_n of_o his_o tyrannical_a kingdom_n for_o this_o be_v the_o only_a argument_n whereby_o they_o prove_v that_o the_o pope_n be_v the_o head_n of_o the_o church_n can_v not_o err_v thus_o the_o wicked_a do_v abuse_v the_o promise_n which_o god_n have_v set_v forth_o to_o raise_v up_o the_o afflict_a mind_n and_o conscience_n of_o his_o people_n against_o the_o true_a church_n this_o be_v the_o cause_n why_o amazia_n the_o priest_n can_v not_o abide_v amos_n the_o prophet_n 7._o in_o the_o mid_n of_o thy_o house_n say_v
paul_n say_v that_o he_o be_v able_a through_o christ_n to_o do_v or_o to_o bear_v all_o thing_n to_o abound_v and_o to_o lack_v to_o be_v full_a and_o to_o be_v hungry_a to_o be_v praise_v and_o to_o be_v dispraise_v etc_n etc_n and_o that_o because_o we_o have_v a_o kingdom_n in_o heaven_n and_o we_o look_v for_o a_o saviour_n who_o have_v begin_v to_o give_v unto_o we_o these_o thing_n by_o the_o word_n and_o sacrament_n and_o if_o he_o leave_v unto_o we_o no_o more_o but_o the_o ministry_n of_o the_o word_n sincere_a and_o sound_a we_o care_v not_o much_o for_o all_o other_o thing_n this_o be_v therefore_o a_o singular_a promise_n and_o consolation_n that_o the_o church_n and_o the_o word_n shall_v endure_v to_o the_o end_n of_o the_o world_n not_o by_o the_o counsel_n or_o wisdom_n of_o man_n but_o by_o god_n himself_o clothing_n his_o minister_n with_o salvation_n albeit_o therefore_o that_o under_o achas_n and_o other_o ungodly_a king_n all_o thing_n be_v full_a of_o

our_o salvation_n and_o our_o glory_n may_v be_v hear_v this_o be_v a_o far_o more_o excellent_a clothing_n than_o be_v those_o aaronical_a garment_n of_o moses_n that_o the_o pastor_n and_o

that_o be_v to_o say_v of_o victory_n which_o be_v obtain_v by_o the_o pure_a word_n and_o holy_a ministry_n the_o second_o part_n of_o this_o promise_n be_v that_o he_o will_v give_v success_n and_o

the_o kingdom_n and_o riches_n in_o the_o world_n be_v but_o dirt_n and_o dung_n so_o the_o psalm_n join_v these_o two_o thing_n together_o that_o by_o the_o preacher_n and_o minister_n he_o will_v give_v his_o mighty_a and_o victorious_a word_n and_o faith_n unto_o those_o that_o hear_v they_o that_o so_o all_o may_v be_v save_v and_o with_o joyful_a heart_n may_v praise_v and_o magnify_v such_o a_o gracious_a and_o a_o merciful_a god._n thereof_o he_o that_o behold_v the_o outward_a show_n and_o face_n of_o the_o church_n will_v judge_v these_o thing_n to_o be_v false_a and_o far_o
