learn_v to_o bear_v for_o if_o they_o will_v be_v discourage_v through_o the_o malice_n of_o the_o wicked_a if_o they_o seek_v to_o please_v and_o fear_n to_o displease_v there_o must_v needs_o

they_o in_o the_o time_n of_o need_n this_o psalm_n follow_v contain_v also_o in_o a_o manner_n the_o same_o matter_n for_o it_o pertain_v to_o the_o doctrine_n of_o faith_n and_o exhort_v the_o

promise_n it_o may_v also_o be_v easy_o understand_v by_o that_o which_o we_o have_v say_v before_o for_o herein_o consist_v all_o this_o heavenly_a wisdom_n that_o we_o do_v utter_o remove_v out_o of_o our_o sight_n what_o so_o ever_o flesh_n can_v comprehend_v and_o believe_v that_o which_o the_o word_n only_o tell_v we_o even_o against_o all_o that_o which_o either_o we_o know_v feel_v or_o

all_o thing_n contrary_a to_o that_o which_o faith_n lead_v we_o unto_o he_o that_o lie_v sick_a and_o at_o the_o point_n of_o death_n can_v by_o reason_n conceive_v nothing_o else_o but_o y_fw-fr imagination_n of_o death_n but_o a_o christian_n man_n leave_v that_o imagination_n know_v that_o in_o death_n there_o be_v true_a life_n but_o thou_o will_v say_v he_o see_v and_o feel_v death_n in_o deed_n but_o life_n he_o can_v not_o feel_v i_o answer_v that_o because_o he_o rest_v upon_o the_o word_n and_o after_o it_o he_o judge_v and_o not_o after_o his_o own_o feel_n therefore_o even_o in_o death_n he_o see_v nothing_o but_o life_n and_o in_o the_o mid_n of_o darkness_n most_o clear_a light_n word_n for_o like_a as_o god_n make_v all_o thing_n of_o nothing_o and_o of_o darkness_n light_n so_o he_o work_v by_o his_o word_n that_o in_o death_n there_o be_v nothing_o but_o life_n they_o then_o which_o stick_n to_o the_o word_n and_o promise_n of_o god_n and_o follow_v the_o same_o do_v find_v it_o true_a which_o david_n say_v 33._o he_o speak_v the_o word_n and_o it_o be_v do_v etc_n etc_n but_o before_o we_o can_v come_v to_o this_o experience_n we_o must_v abide_v some_o trouble_n &_o therefore_o have_v need_n of_o such_o exhortation_n as_o this_o psalm_n here_o set_v forth_o verse_n 1._o they_o that_o trust_v in_o the_o lord_n shall_v be_v as_o mount_n zion_n which_o can_v not_o be_v remove_v but_o remain_v for_o ever_o the_o prophet_n use_v here_o a_o similitude_n of_o mount_n zion_n because_o jerusalem_n wherein_o zion_n stand_v when_o the_o temple_n be_v build_v have_v most_o ample_a &_o notable_a promise_n of_o god_n as_o appear_v in_o very_a many_o place_n of_o the_o prophet_n that_o it_o shall_v stand_v sure_a &_o invincible_a for_o ever_o against_o all_o trouble_n and_o calamity_n for_o that_o the_o lord_n have_v his_o abide_n and_o dwell_v there_o according_a to_o that_o promise_n where_o he_o say_v here_o be_v my_o rest_n here_o will_v i_o dwell_v etc_n etc_n and_o therefore_o david_n in_o a_o other_o psalm_n glory_v on_o this_o wise_a 48._o loe_o the_o king_n be_v gather_v and_o go_v together_o when_o they_o see_v it_o they_o marvel_v they_o

story_n witness_v which_o show_v that_o jerusalem_n remain_v safe_a in_o all_o danger_n not_o by_o the_o strength_n and_o policy_n of_o the_o inhabitant_n but_o by_o the_o miraculous_a work_n of_o

be_v never_o move_v but_o remain_v sure_a and_o safe_a by_o the_o mighty_a protection_n of_o the_o lord_n in_o all_o extremity_n so_o he_o that_o trust_v in_o the_o lord_n shall_v be_v defend_v

that_o we_o can_v do_v unto_o god_n for_o this_o be_v the_o nature_n of_o god_n as_o i_o have_v say_v to_o create_v all_o thing_n of_o nothing_o therefore_o he_o create_v and_o bring_v forth_o in_o
