the_o meek_a man_n on_o the_o face_n of_o the_o earth_n he_o do_v not_o reply_v one_o word_n it_o be_v say_v that_o miriam_n and_o aaron_n speak_v against_o he_o because_o of_o the_o ethiopian_a

david_n a_o man_n full_a of_o the_o spirit_n of_o god_n and_o we_o find_v he_o a_o man_n ready_a to_o pass_v by_o personal_a wrong_n and_o injury_n because_o that_o shimei_n have_v curse_v he_o some_o of_o david_n worthy_n will_v have_v smite_v off_o his_o head_n and_o david_n will_v not_o suffer_v they_o it_o may_v be_v say_v david_n god_n have_v bid_v he_o to_o go_v and_o say_v curse_v david_n this_o be_v a_o foul_a aspersion_n cast_v upon_o david_n come_v out_o thou_o bloody_a man_n come_v out_o thou_o bloody_a man_n see_v the_o 2_o sam._n 16._o 6_o 7_o 8._o and_o 2_o sam._n 19_o 21_o 22_o 23._o whenas_o one_o of_o david_n captain_n will_v have_v have_v he_o put_v shimei_n to_o death_n no_o say_v he_o i_o will_v not_o revenge_n but_o say_v what_o have_v i_o to_o do_v with_o you_o you_o

david_n be_v great_o oppress_v and_o persecute_v by_o saul_n though_o saul_n seem_v to_o be_v put_v into_o his_o hand_n when_o he_o take_v he_o asleep_o in_o the_o cave_n and_o have_v a_o opportunity_n to_o avenge_v his_o cause_n upon_o his_o enemy_n yet_o david_n will_v not_o do_v it_o it_o be_v true_a indeed_o david_n foot_n have_v almost_o slip_v in_o the_o matter_n concern_v nabal_n when_o he_o swear_v he_o will_v be_v avenge_v upon_o nabal_n for_o the_o affront_n do_v to_o he_o but_o when_o abigail_n come_v and_o plead_v with_o david_n he_o do_v accept_v of_o her_o

thus_o you_o see_v david_n be_v a_o man_n ready_a to_o forgive_v and_o to_o put_v up_o wrong_v and_o injury_n 4._o examp._n one_o example_n more_o from_o the_o old_a testament_n and_o that_o be_v of_o

there_o god_n smite_v they_o with_o blindness_n and_o elisha_n he_o come_v and_o take_v they_o and_o carry_v they_o into_o the_o city_n of_o samaria_n at_o the_o 22_o verse_n when_o elisha_n have_v

shall_v i_o smite_v they_o say_v the_o prophet_n unto_o the_o king_n thou_o shall_v not_o smite_v they_o set_v bread_n and_o water_n before_o they_o that_o they_o may_v eat_v and_o drink_v and_o go_v to_o their_o master_n though_o they_o come_v on_o purpose_n to_o apprehend_v he_o and_o carry_v he_o to_o their_o master_n and_o so_o to_o take_v his_o life_n yet_o the_o prophet_n seek_v not_o to_o

lord_n lay_v not_o this_o sin_n to_o their_o charge_n and_o when_o he_o have_v say_v it_o he_o fall_v asleep_a 6._o examp._n and_o so_o the_o apostle_n paul_n in_o the_o galatian_n take_v his_o example_n it_o be_v worthy_a our_o imitation_n in_o gal._n 4._o the_o galatian_n have_v do_v he_o a_o great_a deal_n of_o wrong_n they_o have_v under_o value_v his_o ministry_n and_o set_v up_o false_a teacher_n in_o opposition_n to_o he_o and_o the_o apostle_n he_o be_v very_o free_a to_o forgive_v the_o wrong_n so_o far_o as_o it_o be_v personal_a declare_v that_o he_o do_v acknowledge_v it_o not_o to_o be_v any_o wrong_n 12_o verse_n brethren_n i_o beseech_v you_o be_v as_o i_o be_o for_o i_o be_o as_o you_o be_v you_o have_v not_o injure_v i_o at_o all_o here_o be_v a_o gracious_a
