word of the Lord tryed him The king sent and deliuered him the prince of the people let him goe free Hee made him lorde also of his house and ruler of all his substance That he might informe his princes after his wil and teach his Senators wisedome Israel also came into Egypt and Iacob was a stranger in the land of Ham. And he increased his people exceedingly and made them stronger then their enemies Whose heart turned so that they hated his people and dealt vntruely with his seruants Then sent hee Moses his seruant and Aaron whome hee had chosen And these shewed his tokens among them and wonders in the land of ham He sent darkenesse and it was darke and they were not obedient vnto his word He turned their waters into blood and slue their fish Their land brought forth frogs yea euen in their kings chambers He spake the word and there came all maner of flies and lite in all their quarters Hee gaue them hailestones for raine and flames of fire in their land He smote their vines also and figge trees and destroyed the trees that were in their coasts Hee spake the word and the grashoppers came and caterpillers innumerable and did eate vp all the grasse in their land and deuoured the fruite of their ground He smote all the first borne in their land euen the chiefe of all their strength Hee brought them foorth also with siluer and golde there was not one feeble person among their tribes Egypt was glad at their departing for they were afraide of them He spread out a cloud to be a couering and fire to giue light in the night season At their desire he brought quailes and he filled them with the bread of heauen He opened the rocke of stone and the waters flowed out so that riuers ran in dry places For why he remembred his holy promise and Abraham his seruant And hee brought forth his people with ioy and his chosen with gladnesse And gaue them the landes of the heathen and they tooke the labours of the people in possession That they might keepe his statutes obserue his lawes Confitemini Domino Psal 106.

So the earth opened and swallowed vp Dathan and couered the congregation of Abiram And the fire was kindled in their companie the flame burnt vp the vngodly They made a calfe in Horeb and worshipped the molten image Thus they turned their glory into the similitude of a calfâ— that eateth hay And they forgate God their Sauiour which had done so great things in Egypt Wonderous workes in the lande of Ham and fearefull things by the red sea So he said he would haue destroyed them had not Moses his chosen stande before him in the gap to turne away his wrathfull indignation lest he should destroy them Yea they thought scorne of that pleasant land and gaue no credence vnto his word But murmured in their tents and hearkened not vnto the voice of the Lord. Then lift hee vp his hande against them to ouerthrowe them in the wildernesse To cast out their seede among the nations and to scatter them in the lands They ioyned themselues vnto Baal Peor and ate the offerings of the dead Thus they prouoked him to anger with their owne inuentions and the plague was great among them Then stood vp Phinees prayed and so the plague ceased And that was counted vnto him for righteousnes among all posterities for euermore They angred him also at the waters of strife so that hee punished Moses for their sakes Because they prouoked his spirit so that he spake vnaduisedly with his lippes Neither destroyed they the heathen as the Lorde commanded them But were mingled among the heathen and learned their workes In so much that they worshipped their idols which turned to their owne decay yea they offered their sonnes and daughters vnto deuils And shed innocent blood euen the blood of their sonnes and of their daughters whome they offered vnto the woles of Chanaan and the land was defiled with blood Thus were they stained with their owne workes went a whoring with their owne inuentions Therefore was the wrath of the Lord kindled against his people in so much that he abhorred his owne inheritance And he gaue them ouer into the hand of the heathen and they that hated them were lords ouer them Their enemies oppressed them had them in subiection Many a time did he deliuer them but they rebelled against him with their owne inuentions and were brought downe in their wickednesse Neuerthelesse when hee saw their aduersitie hee heard their complaint Hee thought vpon his couenant and pitied them according vnto the multitude of his mercies yea hee made all those that led them away captiue to pitie them Deliuer vs O Lord our God and gather vs from among the heathen that we may giue thanks vnto thy holy Name and make our boast of thy praise Blessed be the Lord God of Israel from euerlasting and world without end and let all the people say Amen Confitemini Domino Psal 107.
