even_o the_o wicked_a sort_n do_v give_v evidence_n against_o themselves_o and_o although_o all_o the_o world_n will_v excuse_v they_o and_o that_o both_o great_a &_o small_a do_v acquit_v they_o yet_o have_v they_o a_o hartbiting_a within_o they_o which_o make_v they_o to_o perceive_v that_o whensoever_o they_o offend_v or_o sin_n they_o do_v it_o willing_o of_o their_o own_o accord_n of_o a_o certain_a lewdness_n and_o with_o their_o own_o wil._n there_o be_v not_o that_o man_n which_o know_v not_o this_o even_o the_o great_a despiser_n of_o god_n that_o be_v say_v i_o even_o they_o

that_o poinâ—_n but_o now_o let_v we_o come_v to_o the_o second_o point_n that_o be_v to_o wit_n how_o it_o be_v that_o god_n harden_v man_n without_o be_v partaker_n of_o their_o sin_n let_v we_o mark_v that_o sometime_o the_o cause_n shall_v be_v apparent_a and_o whensoever_o god_n punish_v man_n we_o must_v needs_o confess_v that_o he_o do_v it_o just_o mark_v that_o for_o one_o point_n now_o one_o of_o the_o mean_n which_o he_o have_v to_o punish_v man_n with_o all_o be_v that_o he_o blind_v they_o that_o he_o harden_v their_o heart_n that_o he_o send_v they_o the_o spirit_n of_o

not_o upon_o the_o wicked_a at_o the_o first_o dash_n nor_o pour_v out_o his_o rigour_n upon_o they_o to_o confound_v they_o we_o must_v not_o think_v that_o he_o have_v forget_v his_o duty_n and_o

to_o execute_v his_o rigour_n until_o he_o have_v show_v that_o the_o wicked_a be_v utter_o past_o amendment_n true_a it_o be_v that_o sometime_o he_o make_v no_o such_o tarriance_n for_o it_o be_v not_o for_o he_o to_o deal_v always_o after_o one_o sort_n neither_o be_v it_o for_o we_o to_o bind_v he_o to_o any_o certain_a law_n he_o have_v liberty_n to_o hasten_v his_o judgement_n when_o it_o please_v he_o but_o yet_o for_o all_o that_o he_o do_v common_o delay_v they_o and_o put_v they_o off_o and_o for_o the_o same_o cause_n be_v he_o say_v to_o be_v long_o suffer_v 21.25.30_o and_o we_o must_v not_o think_v that_o god_n will_v not_o call_v they_o to_o account_v who_o he_o bear_v withal_o but_o after_o as_o he_o wink_v at_o they_o so_o will_v he_o double_a his_o vengeance_n upon_o they_o if_o they_o be_v not_o touch_v with_o hearty_a repentance_n when_o he_o have_v give_v they_o respite_n but_o on_o the_o contrary_a part_n when_o he_o have_v wait_v for_o the_o wicked_a a_o long_a time_n if_o he_o show_v great_a rigour_n than_o we_o think_v he_o will_v have_v do_v and_o punish_v they_o with_o more_o extremity_n because_o they_o have_v so_o dally_v with_o he_o and_o despise_v his_o goodness_n yea_o and_o even_o turn_v it_o into_o a_o occasion_n of_o great_a awelesnesse_n i_o say_v if_o he_o be_v more_o wrathful_a and_o sharp_a than_o we_o think_v he_o will_v have_v be_v let_v we_o not_o think_v he_o to_o be_v
and_o so_o let_v we_o understande_v that_o although_o we_o have_v god_n word_n â—â—â—_o yet_o will_v god_n have_v pity_n on_o who_o he_o will_v have_v pity_n according_a to_o saint_n paul_n allege_v of_o the_o same_o text_n to_o show_v that_o albeit_o the_o multitude_n of_o people_n to_o who_o the_o gospel_n be_v preach_v be_v never_o so_o great_a yet_o god_n reserve_v who_o he_o list_v to_o

grudge_v at_o it_o but_o have_v we_o know_v that_o will_v we_o be_v assure_v of_o our_o salvation_n we_o must_v resort_v not_o only_o to_o god_n grace_n but_o also_o chief_o to_o y_z e_z promise_n whereby_o he_o utter_v his_o love_n towards_o we_o as_o be_v say_v already_o you_o see_v then_o that_o the_o cause_n why_o moses_n do_v in_o this_o place_n attribute_v the_o title_n of_o faithful_a unto_o god_n be_v to_o the_o end_n that_o when_o folk_n will_v be_v sure_a of_o their_o salvation_n they_o shall_v not_o enter_v into_o foolish_a imagination_n 1.7_o ro._n 5.10.18_o eph._n 1.7_o but_o look_v unto_o god_n word_n which_o be_v before_o their_o eye_n whereupon_o they_o may_v be_v bold_a to_o rest_v so_o then_o let_v it_o content_v we_o that_o our_o lord_n allure_v we_o to_o he_o and_o that_o the_o death_n &_o passion_n of_o our_o lord_n jesus_n christ_n together_o with_o his_o righteousness_n be_v set_v afore_o we_o so_o as_o we_o know_v that_o by_o that_o mean_v we_o may_v be_v

we_o let_v we_o take_v hold_n of_o god_n faithfulness_n which_o moses_n speak_v of_o here_o and_o let_v we_o not_o think_v that_o god_n offer_v we_o such_o a_o benefit_n to_o deceive_v we_o but_o that_o he_o do_v it_o to_o the_o end_n that_o we_o shall_v glorify_v he_o in_o the_o mid_n of_o our_o misery_n and_o that_o although_o we_o be_v silly_a frail_a creature_n yet_o we_o may_v say_v that_o the_o life_n of_o jesus_n christ_n belong_v unto_o we_o and_o that_o we_o be_v already_o lift_v up_o to_o sit_v with_o he_o in_o the_o kingdom_n of_o heaven_n 2.6_o eph._n 2.6_o thus_o you_o see_v what_o we_o have_v to_o bear_v in_o mind_n concern_v the_o word_n faithful_n now_o for_o a_o conclusion_n moses_n add_v a_o threat_n say_v that_o god_n also_o will_v requite_v like_a for_o like_a to_o such_o as_o hate_v he_o yea_o even_o to_o their_o face_n &_o that_o he_o will_v not_o foreslow_v in_o this_o place_n there_o be_v some_o darksomnesse_n in_o the_o word_n of_o moses_n for_o he_o interchaunge_v the_o number_n god_n say_v he_o will_v yield_v recompense_n to_o such_o as_o hate_v he_o to_o his_o face_n or_o before_o his_o face_n then_o do_v he_o shift_v the_o number_n &_o it_o seem_v that_o whereas_o he_o say_v they_o hate_v he_o to_o his_o face_n he_o mean_v to_o say_v that_o we_o spite_n god_n or_o hate_n god_n to_o his_o face_n when_o we_o fall_v out_o into_o disorder_n and_o be_v so_o rebellious_a as_o it_o shall_v seem_v that_o we_o will_v run_v against_o he_o and_o defy_v he_o to_o be_v at_o open_a war_n with_o he_o but_o for_o as_o much_o as_o that_o word_n be_v repete_v twice_o and_o in_o the_o end_n it_o appear_v that_o moses_n speak_v of_o the_o face_n of_o the_o transgressor_n no_o doubt_n but_o it_o be_v a_o change_v of_o the_o number_n as_o the_o holy_a scripture_n be_v common_o wont_a to_o do_v therefore_o the_o very_a meaning_n of_o it_o be_v that_o god_n will_v requite_v they_o to_o their_o face_n by_o make_v the_o hatred_n to_o turn_v back_o upon_o themselves_o othersome_a take_v it_o as_o though_o it_o be_v speak_v of_o their_o life-time_n that_o god_n will_v not_o only_o punish_v the_o wicked_a and_o the_o despiser_n of_o his_o law_n after_o this_o present_a life_n but_o also_o execute_v his_o vengeance_n upon_o they_o aforehande_v to_o the_o sight_n of_o man_n eye_n so_o as_o we_o shall_v be_v provoke_v to_o fear_v

though_o it_o be_v say_v y_o it_o whereas_o he_o spare_v the_o wicked_a in_o this_o world_n it_o be_v to_o the_o end_n to_o overthrow_v they_o and_o destroy_v they_o utter_o afterward_o according_a as_o it_o be_v say_v by_o the_o prophet_n 12.3_o jer._n 12.3_o that_o god_n pamper_v those_o who_o he_o punish_v not_o out_o of_o hand_n like_z as_o man_n do_v fat_a a_o ox_n or_o a_o swine_n when_o they_o intend_v to_o kill_v he_o and_o the_o prophet_n use_v that_o similitude_n to_o the_o intent_n we_o shall_v not_o envy_v the_o wicked_a when_o we_o see_v they_o prosper_v for_o be_v a_o ox_n

and_o true_o this_o be_v a_o good_a and_o profitable_a lesson_n but_o as_o touch_v the_o present_a place_n if_o we_o read_v all_o the_o word_n of_o moses_n throughout_o there_o be_v no_o darkness_n at_o all_o in_o they_o for_o why_o he_o add_v god_n will_v not_o foreslowe_v to_o requite_v they_o that_o hate_v he_o every_o man_n in_o his_o face_n and_o so_o moses_n mean_v in_o effect_n to_o

to_o put_v it_o in_o execution_n we_o cry_v out_o daily_o to_o have_v justice_n execute_v but_o how_o do_v man_n discharge_v themselves_o thereof_o let_v their_o ear_n be_v never_o so_o much_o beat_v

the_o keep_n of_o the_o outward_a form_n of_o the_o law_n be_v not_o all_o that_o we_o have_v to_o do_v but_o that_o we_o must_v special_o observe_v the_o substance_n of_o the_o law_n will_v we_o

it_o be_v that_o the_o jew_n will_v not_o utter_o transgress_v this_o order_n but_o yet_o they_o think_v it_o enough_o for_o they_o to_o discharge_v themselves_o of_o the_o ceremony_n and_o they_o

be_v never_o the_o more_o relieve_v and_o all_o under_o colour_n that_o man_n can_v not_o recover_v that_o which_o they_o have_v lend_v we_o see_v then_o how_o man_n will_v always_o appease_v god_n
