assembly_n of_o the_o just_a and_o in_o the_o congregation_n v._n 1._o there_o be_v two_o degree_n in_o the_o openness_n of_o david_n praise_n first_o he_o will_v do_v it_o in_o the_o assembly_n of_o the_o upright_a or_o as_o some_o translate_v in_o the_o assembly_n of_o the_o just_a just_a or_o upright_a man_n have_v two_o sort_n of_o assembly_n or_o they_o assemble_v for_o two_o great_a end_n first_o to_o worship_n and_o call_v upon_o god_n second_o to_o advise_v and_o take_v counsel_n one_o with_o another_o the_o word_n here_o render_v a_o assembly_n be_v applicable_a to_o both_o sort_n of_o assembly_n 1._o to_o a_o company_n of_o man_n meet_v together_o to_o consult_v what_o to_o do_v in_o any_o difficult_a case_n especial_o of_o public_a concernment_n whether_o for_o peace_n or_o war_n and_o they_o who_o meet_v thus_o in_o council_n shall_v be_v a_o assembly_n of_o just_a and_o upright_a man_n none_o be_v fit_a to_o direct_v the_o course_n of_o justice_n but_o they_o who_o be_v just_o nor_o to_o set_v thing_n right_a in_o a_o nation_n but_o the_o upright_a every_o thing_n be_v in_o work_v as_o it_o be_v in_o be_v and_o what_o we_o find_v in_o ourselves_o we_o be_v apt_a to_o impress_v upon_o all_o we_o do_v or_o take_v in_o hand_n the_o work_n bear_v the_o image_n and_o superscription_n of_o the_o workman_n as_o the_o vile_a person_n will_v speak_v villainy_n isa_n 32._o 6._o so_o the_o just_a person_n will_v speak_v justice_n and_o the_o word_n of_o the_o upright_a man_n will_v be_v of_o uprightness_n 2._o the_o word_n be_v applyable_a also_o to_o any_o meeting_n or_o assembly_n of_o the_o godly_a for_o they_o be_v a_o secret_a company_n too_o they_o be_v secret_a one_o and_o secret_n be_v with_o they_o the_o secret_a of_o the_o lord_n be_v with_o they_o that_o fear_v he_o psal_n 25._o 14._o and_o he_o will_v show_v they_o his_o covenant_n or_o as_o the_o margin_n have_v it_o and_o his_o covenant_n to_o make_v they_o know_v it_o now_o when_o david_n resolve_v here_o to_o praise_n god_n in_o the_o assembly_n of_o the_o just_a we_o may_v understand_v he_o of_o either_o assembly_n he_o will_v praise_v god_n in_o the_o assembly_n of_o his_o counselor_n where_o buisiness_n be_v debate_v and_o beat_v out_o there_o success_n be_v especial_o to_o be_v acknowledge_v he_o will_v do_v it_o also_o in_o any_o assembly_n of_o gracious_a and_o upright_a soul_n and_o indeed_o praise_n be_v comely_a for_o the_o upright_a psal_n 33._o 1._o and_o it_o be_v so_o not_o only_o because_o they_o have_v most_o cause_n to_o praise_n god_n but_o because_o they_o be_v most_o fit_a to_o do_v it_o and_o because_o it_o be_v most_o acceptable_a at_o their_o hand_n to_o the_o heart_n of_o god_n how_o beautiful_a and_o of_o how_o sweet_a a_o savour_n be_v their_o praise_n for_o any_o mercy_n who_o as_o they_o have_v travel_v for_o it_o so_o they_o will_v walk_v worthy_a of_o it_o it_o be_v the_o best_a and_o most_o stately_a representation_n of_o heaven_n on_o earth_n to_o join_v with_o such_o a_o assembly_n of_o just_a man_n praise_v god_n but_o david_n will_v not_o stay_v there_o neither_o must_v we_o his_o praise_n be_v yet_o more_o open_a i_o will_v praise_v he_o in_o the_o assembly_n of_o the_o just_a and_o in_o the_o congregation_n which_o in_o opposition_n to_o the_o former_a be_v as_o if_o he_o have_v say_v i_o will_v praise_v the_o lord_n before_o all_o comer_n let_v all_o the_o world_n come_v they_o shall_v be_v witness_n of_o his_o praise_n i_o will_v praise_v he_o bare-faced_n and_o boldfaced_a i_o
