out_o again_o weak_a and_o wretched_a man_n that_o we_o be_v who_o be_v able_a to_o deliver_v we_o god_n be_v a_o wise_a god_n and_o what_o more_o fit_a for_o our_o folly_n for_o melius_fw-la

it_o that_o we_o shall_v go_v unto_o god_n school_n and_o there_o learn_v that_o this_o be_v life_n eternal_a the_o perfection_n of_o all_o knowledge_n to_o know_v he_o to_o be_v the_o only_a true_a god_n and_o jesus_n christ_n who_o he_o have_v send_v last_o god_n be_v a_o merciful_a god_n and_o what_o more_o fit_a for_o our_o sin_n for_o every_o man_n we_o know_v to_o be_v a_o sinner_n every_o sin_n a_o transgression_n of_o the_o law_n every_o transgression_n liable_a unto_o a_o curse_n and_o this_o curse_n no_o less_o than_o eternal_a death_n how_o necessary_a be_v it_o then_o that_o we_o shall_v seek_v for_o a_o powerful_a protection_n in_o the_o service_n of_o this_o merciful_a god_n that_o by_o his_o assistance_n we_o may_v be_v able_a to_o contest_v not_o only_o with_o flesh_n and_o blood_n but_o even_o with_o principality_n and_o power_n and_o say_v with_o saint_n paul_n who_o shall_v lay_v any_o thing_n to_o the_o charge_n of_o god_n elect_v his_o elect_a and_o faithful_a servant_n it_o be_v god_n that_o justify_v who_o be_v able_a to_o condemn_v we_o see_v then_o we_o be_v all_o weak_a and_o helpless_a and_o want_v god_n as_o a_o powerful_a protector_n we_o be_v

may_v even_o our_o necessity_n enforce_v we_o and_o let_v every_o man_n say_v and_o say_v from_o his_o heart_n o_o lord_n true_o i_o be_o thy_o servant_n i_o be_o thy_o servant_n and_o thus_o much_o for_o my_o first_o observation_n i_o come_v now_o unto_o a_o second_o 2._o as_o god_n be_v our_o lord_n and_o master_n and_o we_o must_v do_v he_o service_n so_o this_o service_n must_v be_v hearty_a and_o sincere_a and_o therefore_o we_o see_v here_o to_o prevent_v all_o suspicion_n of_o hypocrisy_n the_o psalmist_n bind_v himself_o with_o a_o threefold_a cord_n first_o we_o have_v a_o profession_n of_o his_o service_n o_o lord_n i_o be_o thy_o servant_n second_o we_o have_v a_o repetition_n of_o this_o profession_n i_o be_o thy_o servant_n i_o be_o thy_o servant_n last_o we_o have_v a_o asseveration_n affix_v unto_o this_o repetition_n o_o lord_n true_o i_o be_o thy_o servant_n i_o be_o thy_o servant_n and_o just_o may_v we_o be_v true_a and_o sincere_a in_o our_o service_n unto_o he_o who_o in_o all_o his_o promise_n be_v so_o sincere_a and_o faithful_a unto_o we_o nay_o therefore_o only_o require_v sincerity_n in_o our_o service_n that_o he_o may_v more_o faithful_o reward_v we_o when_o one_o man_n wait_v upon_o another_o that_o which_o breed_v indignation_n and_o reluctancy_n the_o wage_n oftentimes_o be_v proportion_v not_o according_a to_o the_o worth_n of_o the_o servant_n but_o the_o fancy_n of_o the_o master_n and_o so_o we_o read_v of_o lew_n the_o eleven_o of_o france_n 61._o view_v of_o france_n page_n 61._o who_o neglect_v man_n of_o

the_o unworthy_a worthy_n he_o make_v choice_n of_o to_o fill_v up_o his_o consistory_n but_o when_o man_n wait_v upon_o god_n so_o diligent_a be_v he_o in_o reward_v those_o who_o diligent_o seek_v

of_o the_o work_n upon_o the_o servant_n shoulder_n &_o reap_v the_o main_a benefit_n themselves_o but_o where_o he_o give_v we_o talent_n to_o labour_n &_o increase_v withal_o he_o require_v again_o

whole_a benefit_n &_o a_o thousand_o time_n more_o than_o the_o whole_a benefit_n of_o his_o own_o service_n especial_o when_o as_o we_o know_v that_o as_o god_n have_v his_o different_a servant_n some_o formal_a some_o real_a so_o he_o have_v his_o different_a reward_n too_o for_o formal_n he_o have_v his_o formality_n his_o reality_n for_o real_n see_v thou_o not_o ahab_n say_v god_n how_o he_o humble_v himself_o humble_v himself_o with_o a_o temporary_a sorrow_n and_o see_v we_o not_o god_n how_o he_o require_v his_o humility_n ahab_n be_v good_a for_o a_o time_n and_o for_o a_o time_n only_a god_n be_v gracious_a unto_o he_o again_o see_v thou_o not_o my_o servant_n job_n that_o there_o be_v none_o like_o he_o upon_o the_o earth_n a_o perfect_a and_o upright_a man_n and_o according_a to_o the_o uprightness_n of_o the_o servant_n see_v we_o not_o the_o gracious_a favour_n of_o his_o master_n as_o great_a be_v his_o godliness_n so_o his_o godliness_n be_v great_a gain_n have_v the_o promise_n of_o the_o blessing_n of_o this_o life_n after_o the_o patient_a loss_n of_o his_o good_n receive_v they_o all_o double_a have_v the_o assurance_n of_o the_o blessing_n of_o
