god_n but_o that_o their_o ear_n must_v be_v attentive_a to_o hear_v his_o voice_n so_o that_o whensoever_o god_n speak_v man_n must_v be_v as_o it_o be_v imprison_v to_o it_o and_o content_v

as_o soon_o as_o we_o perceive_v god_n presence_n we_o must_v needs_o be_v abash_v we_o see_v how_o the_o very_a angel_n do_v hide_v their_o eye_n 2_o esa._n â_o 2_o because_o god_n glory_n be_v too_o

be_v fain_o to_o shun_v his_o throne_n as_o offender_n shun_v the_o seat_n of_o the_o judge_n to_o the_o uttermost_a of_o their_o power_n to_o be_v short_a we_o be_v but_o wretched_a worm_n and_o

to_o our_o benefit_n that_o god_n show_v himself_o after_o that_o fashion_n that_o be_v to_o wit_n by_o the_o mean_n of_o man_n so_o as_o he_o appoint_v man_n to_o show_v we_o his_o will_n as_o well_o

be_v good_a for_o we_o to_o understand_v more_o at_o large_a the_o thing_n that_o i_o have_v touch_v in_o one_o word_n namely_o that_o the_o law_n fray_v we_o far_o more_o in_o comparison_n than_o

of_o moses_n which_o i_o have_v touch_v short_o already_o remember_v these_o word_n say_v he_o and_o how_o by_o talk_v and_o confer_v of_o they_o in_o thy_o house_n and_o as_o thou_o go_v abroad_o here_o we_o see_v well_o how_o our_o lord_n meaning_n be_v not_o to_o be_v honour_v with_o guard_n of_o garment_n and_o such_o other_o thing_n but_o to_o have_v his_o law_n print_v in_o his_o people_n

man_n have_v be_v wont_a to_o engrave_v their_o league_n in_o some_o table_n of_o brass_n or_o stone_n so_o god_n take_v stone_n to_o write_v and_o engrave_v his_o law_n in_o it_o be_v not_o his_o

that_o god_n disclaim_v they_o as_o if_o he_o have_v say_v your_o god_n give_v you_o over_o and_o have_v divorce_v himself_o from_o you_o for_o in_o as_o much_o as_o your_o wickedness_n have_v

as_o it_o be_v a_o figure_n or_o image_n that_o god_n once_o write_v of_o his_o law_n be_v not_o enough_o for_o we_o but_o that_o we_o have_v need_n of_o a_o second_o write_v of_o it_o to_o the_o

that_o ananias_n have_v speak_v i_o wish_v it_o may_v be_v so_o say_v jeremie_n but_o yet_o must_v i_o go_v further_a and_o tell_v he_o his_o condemnation_n see_v the_o lord_n have_v command_v i_o

to_o keep_v ourselves_o from_o be_v deceive_v it_o be_v a_o promise_n that_o can_v never_o fail_v us._n and_o therefore_o let_v we_o hold_v we_o thereto_o and_o seek_v to_o obey_v our_o god_n his_o

in_o the_o mean_a while_o no_o man_n look_v to_o the_o ground_n of_o the_o mischief_n to_o amend_v it_o therefore_o when_o we_o have_v be_v stubborn_a against_o our_o god_n let_v we_o not_o think_v

they_o see_v it_o arm_v against_o they_o and_o when_o it_o touch_v their_o person_n but_o they_o ought_v to_o use_v the_o opportunity_n in_o reform_v themselves_o even_o when_o god_n be_v so_o good_a
