came downe from the Mount againe where vnto he was ascended ¶ Hur Libertie whytenesse or a hole Husai the Arachite was ‡ 2. Reg. 15. d. 16. c. a man of great wisedome one of Dauids chiefe Counsaylers his assured friend as it well appeared when he came vnto him being fled from Absalom his sonne with his clothes regt and ashes vpon his head declaring thereby the great sorowe and heauynesse he was in to sée his Lord and mayster in that case of whose comming Dauid was greatly comforted But forasmuch as he thought he shuld do him more pleasure otherwise than to go with him now he said Oh my most deare friend Husai if thou doest go with me now at this tyme thou shalt be but a burthen vnto me But if thou wilt returne into Ierusalem and say vnto Absalom I will be thy seruant O King and serue thée as I haue done thy father thou mayst for my sake destroy the counsell of Achitophell and thereby doe me great pleasure So Husai gat him to Absalom saying God saue the King God saue the King What quoth Absalom is this the kyndenesse thou she west to thy friende Howe chaunceth it that thou wentest not with him Nay sayde Husai but whome the Lorde and this people and all the men of Israel hath chosen his will I be and with hym will I dwell to whome shall I doe seruice but to hys sonne as I serued before thy father so will I serue thée Then when Absalom had retayned Husai to be of his Counsell he sayde vnto him Achitophell hath counsayled thus and thus to doe shall we doe thereafter or no. Husai answered the Counsell that Achitophell hath giuen is not good at this time For sayd he thou knowest thy father and his men howe they be strong and now being chafed in their myndes are euen as a Beare robbed of hir Whelpes in the fielde And also thy father is a man practised in warre and maketh no tarying wyth the people Beholde he lurketh nowe in some Caue or in some other strong place and though some of his men be ouerthrowen at the first brunt it will be sayde that thy people is ouerthrowen and so shall the best men thou hast whose hearts are as the hearts of Lyons shrynke thereat For all Israel knoweth thy father to be a man of great might and his warriours stoute men Therefore my counsell is that all Israel be gathered togither vnto thée from Dan to Béerseba which are in number as the sande of the sea And that thou go to battell in thyne owne person For so shall we come vpon him in one place or other where we shall finde him and fall vpon hym as thicke as the dewe falleth vpon the grounde and of all the men that are with him we shall not leaue him one Moreouer if he be gotten into a towne then shall all the men of Israell bring roapes to that towne or Citie we will drawe it into the riuer vntill there be not one stone founde there This counsell of Husai pleased Absalom and the people better than Achitophels which was euen the Lordes det●rmination to destroy the good counsell of Achitophel that the Lorde might bring euill vpon Absalom And so when Husai had done according to Dauids request he caused Sadoch and Abiathar the Priestes to sende Dauid worde of all that was done whereby he escaped ¶ Husai Sense or making haste or holding his peace I. IAbes was so named of his mother bicause she bare him in sorrowe He being more honorable than the reast of his brethren made a condicionall vow vnto God saying If thou wilt blesse me in déede and inlarge my coastes and if thine hande be with me and thou wylt cause me to be deliuered from cuill that I be not hurt Thus farre goeth his request which was graunted Iabyn was the King of Canaan whose Captayne of warre was Sisera Twentie yeares he troubled Israel very sore But at the last he was ouercome of the Israelites and brought to naught There was another King called Iabyn also whome Iosua slue and destroyed his Citie called Hazor as yée shall reade in Iosua Chap. 11. Iacob was the yongest sonne of Isaac and brother to Esau whose byrthright he bought for a mease of pottage and afterwarde by the counsell of Rebecca hys mother got away his blessing And then to auoyde his brothers displeasure he was sent into Mesopotamia to Laban his Mothers brother to get him a Wyfe And chaunceing to come to a place where he was benighted he tooke a stone and layde it vnder his heade and fell a sléeue And in his dreame he sawe a Ladder stande vppon the earth reaching vp to heauen and the Angels of God ascending and descending vpon it and God himselfe standing vpon the Ladder sayde I am the Lorde God of Abraham thy father and the God of Isaac the lande which thou sléepest vpon will I giue to thée and thy seede and thy séede shall be as the dust of the earth thou shalt spreade abroade to the West to the East to the North and to the South And thorowe thée and in thy séede shall all the kinreds of the earth be blessed Behold I am with thée and will be thy kéeper in all places where thou goest and will bring thée agayne into thys lande neyther will I leaue thée vntill I haue made good all that I haue promised Then Iacob awaking out of sléepe sayde Surely the Lorde is in this place and I was not aware Oh how fearefull is this place it is none other but the house of God and the gate of heauen Then Iacob gate him vp earely in the morning and tooke the stone which he slept vpon and set it vp as a pyller to be a remembrance of that vision and poured oyle vpon it and called the place Bethel which before was called Lus. And before his departing he vowed saying If God will be with me and kéepe me in this iourney which I go and will giue me breade to eate and clothes to couer me so that I come againe to my fathers house in safety then shall the Lorde be my God and this stone which I haue set vp an ende shall be Gods house and of all that thou giuest me will I giue the tenth vnto thée And so Iacob going on his iourney came into the East countrey where in beholding the lande he sawe certayne heardemen lying with their flockes of shéepe besyde a Well at the which they commonly vsed to water their shéepe to whom he went demanded whence they were They said of Haran Doe ye not know quoth he one Laban the sonne of Nahor Yea sayde they we knowe him well He is in health And beholde yonder commeth his daughter Rachel to water hir fathers shéepe who was no sooner come but Iacob went to the Well and rolled away the stone from the Welles mouth and
