the_o lord_n hear_v thou_o in_o the_o day_n of_o trouble_n the_o name_n of_o the_o god_n of_o jacob_n defend_v thou_o word_n the_o meaning_n of_o the_o word_n the_o thing_n that_o he_o will_v they_o

second_o verse_n the_o lord_n hear_v thou_o etc._n etc._n these_o word_n import_v thus_o much_o that_o david_n be_v already_o in_o or_o likely_a to_o fall_v into_o some_o great_a trouble_n that_o he_o do_v pray_v beforehand_o or_o will_v pray_v in_o the_o time_n of_o his_o trouble_n and_o that_o he_o desire_v the_o people_n of_o god_n to_o pray_v to_o god_n for_o he_o that_o he_o will_v hear_v those_o prayer_n that_o he_o shall_v make_v in_o the_o time_n of_o his_o trouble_n first_o then_o though_o he_o be_v a_o good_a king_n trouble_n david_n in_o his_o lawful_a calling_n be_v not_o free_a

out_o of_o they_o title_n by_o outward_a thing_n we_o must_v not_o judge_v of_o the_o lawfulness_n of_o king_n title_n we_o be_v not_o then_o rash_o to_o judge_v of_o the_o lawfulness_n of_o prince_n

to_o think_v thus_o with_o themselves_o sure_o i_o have_v not_o take_v a_o good_a course_n because_o such_o evil_n have_v befall_v i_o this_o be_v true_a indeed_o way_n we_o ought_v as_o any_o cross_n

of_o god_n or_o no_o and_o this_o be_v a_o great_a fault_n in_o many_o that_o they_o do_v not_o as_o in_o balaam_n the_o sorcerer_n who_o when_o he_o be_v send_v for_o by_o balak_n the_o king_n of_o

he_o do_v not_o by_o all_o these_o trouble_n that_o befall_v he_o in_o the_o way_n examine_v himself_o and_o say_v good_a lord_n what_o do_v i_o here_o whether_o be_o i_o go_v and_o where_o about_o but_o when_o man_n have_v good_a ground_n and_o warrant_v for_o their_o do_n than_o they_o be_v confident_o to_o go_v on_o whatsoever_o may_v betide_v they_o with_o prayer_n unto_o god_n commend_v

time_n he_o be_v fall_v into_o beside_o all_o those_o which_o in_o his_o former_a kingdom_n of_o scotland_n he_o suffer_v action_n all_o good_a man_n must_v look_v for_o trouble_v in_o the_o best_a action_n and_o this_o be_v not_o only_o the_o portion_n of_o good_a prince_n king_n and_o queen_n but_o of_o all_o good_a man_n in_o their_o best_a action_n they_o must_v look_v to_o find_v many_o day_n of_o trouble_n in_o they_o for_o as_o the_o kingdom_n of_o christ_n be_v most_o subject_a to_o all_o kind_n of_o wrong_n in_o the_o head_n as_o david_n prophetical_o complain_v 2._o psalm_n 2.1_o 2._o why_o do_v the_o heathen_a rage_n and_o the_o people_n murmur_n in_o vain_a the_o king_n of_o the_o earth_n band_n themselves_o and_o the_o prince_n be_v assemble_v together_o against_o

many_o more_o trouble_n shall_v he_o sustain_v of_o the_o enemy_n of_o the_o same_o then_z other_o for_o beside_o that_o the_o man_n of_o this_o world_n be_v against_o good_a man_n and_o their_o

not_o judge_n of_o thing_n by_o the_o event_n do_v this_o way_n like_o a_o merciful_a father_n try_v their_o faith_n and_o their_o obedience_n therefore_o let_v no_o man_n be_v discourage_v in_o any_o good_a action_n for_o any_o trouble_n that_o shall_v befall_v he_o in_o it_o neither_o let_v we_o judge_v of_o thing_n by_o the_o event_n but_o be_v sure_a that_o our_o cause_n be_v good_a and_o

thus_o 144.15_o psal_n 144.15_o bless_v be_v the_o people_n that_o be_v so_o yea_o blessed_a be_v the_o people_n who_o god_n be_v the_o lord_n and_o not_o only_a deliverance_n from_o eternal_a

covenant_n with_o we_o and_o with_o all_o believer_n in_o christ_n 1.2_o they_o pray_v in_o the_o faith_n of_o god_n covenant_n make_v unto_o jacob_n and_o to_o his_o posterity_n heb._n 1.2_o and_o for_o his_o sake_n and_o be_v therefore_o call_v god_n the_o the_o father_n of_o our_o lord_n jesus_n christ_n that_o be_v not_o only_o his_o father_n but_o of_o all_o that_o believe_v in_o he_o and_o so_o look_v whatsoever_o be_v include_v in_o the_o first_o covenant_n make_v with_o abraham_n isaac_n and_o jacob_n we_o be_v heir_n of_o they_o by_o faith_n in_o christ_n who_o be_v heir_n of_o all_o

apostle_n say_v all_o be_v we_o therefore_o we_o be_v to_o direct_v all_o our_o prayer_n unto_o god_n in_o the_o faith_n of_o this_o most_o merciful_a covenant_n and_o look_v to_o be_v hear_v for_o

god_n of_o jacob_n to_o defend_v he_o so_o we_o be_v to_o pray_v unto_o god_n as_o to_o our_o father_n who_o have_v so_o reveal_v himself_o unto_o we_o in_o christ_n for_o who_o sake_n it_o be_v say_v that_o whatsoever_o we_o ask_v of_o god_n according_a to_o his_o will_n shall_v be_v grant_v unto_o us._n therefore_o though_o god_n be_v in_o heaven_n 5.1_o joh._n 14.13_o eccles_n 5.1_o and_o we_o in_o earth_n though_o he_o be_v just_a and_o we_o sinful_a and_o so_o we_o can_v look_v for_o nothing_o from_o he_o in_o ourselves_o yet_o because_o of_o his_o covenant_n we_o come_v unto_o he_o

defend_v we_o call_v he_o not_o god_n only_o but_o the_o father_n of_o our_o lord_n jesus_n christ_n &_o so_o in_o he_o our_o father_n part_v of_o which_o covenant_n be_v that_o if_o we_o offend_v he_o or_o as_o it_o be_v say_v by_o god_n himself_o if_o they_o break_v my_o statute_n 89.31_o psalm_n 89.31_o and_o keep_v not_o my_o commandment_n then_o will_v i_o visit_v their_o transgression_n with_o the_o rod_n and_o their_o iniquity_n with_o stroke_n yet_o my_o love_a kindness_n will_v i_o not_o take_v from_o they_o nor_o falsify_v my_o truth_n my_o covenant_n will_v i_o not_o break_v nor_o alter_v the_o thing_n that_o be_v go_v out_o of_o my_o lip_n and_o according_a to_o this_o part_n of_o his_o covenant_n we_o must_v pray_v he_o to_o deal_v with_o we_o that_o be_v that_o though_o he_o do_v just_o chastise_v we_o with_o this_o plague_n for_o our_o sin_n yet_o he_o will_v not_o take_v his_o love_a kindness_n from_o we_o and_o so_o play_v as_o david_n do_v o_o lord_n rebuke_v i_o not_o in_o thy_o anger_n neither_o chastise_v i_o in_o thy_o wrath_n 6.1_o psal_n 6.1_o where_o he_o do_v not_o simple_o refuse_v to_o be_v chastise_v for_o then_o he_o shall_v have_v be_v out_o of_o the_o covenant_n but_o not_o in_o the_o anger_n of_o god_n plague_n even_o in_o this_o time_n of_o the_o plague_n so_o must_v we_o be_v willing_a to_o bear_v this_o visitation_n of_o the_o lord_n so_o long_o as_o it_o shall_v please_v he_o to_o try_v we_o with_o it_o only_o let_v we_o desire_v that_o his_o wrath_n may_v cease_v from_o we_o and_o that_o his_o love_a kindness_n may_v not_o be_v take_v away_o and_o let_v that_o be_v sufficient_a for_o us._n therefore_o to_o conclude_v this_o point_n that_o we_o may_v now_o and_o always_o pray_v in_o faith_n let_v we_o look_v to_o god_n covenant_n make_v with_o we_o and_o to_o the_o promise_n include_v therein_o and_o to_o christ_n in_o who_o only_o the_o covenant_n be_v steadfast_a and_o in_o who_o only_o all_o the_o

interpretation_n of_o the_o second_o verse_n as_o before_o and_o namely_o to_o that_o end_n they_o pray_v that_o god_n will_v send_v he_o help_v from_o his_o sanctuary_n and_o give_v he_o strength_n and_o courage_n against_o his_o enemy_n to_o that_o end_n from_o zion_n where_o by_o sanctuary_n he_o mean_v heaven_n in_o the_o hebrew_n it_o be_v holy_a namely_o place_n that_o be_v heaven_n which_o
