both_o christian_a and_o heathen_a have_v detest_v the_o same_o vice_n &_o he_o that_o commit_v it_o &_o what_o punishment_n some_o people_n execute_v upon_o such_o offender_n and_o partly_o i_o

why_o now_o in_o the_o day_n of_o so_o good_a a_o king_n who_o have_v reform_v religion_n banish_a idolatry_n and_o here_o execute_v the_o idolater_n to_o the_o uttermost_a of_o his_o power_n god_n

most_o wise_o &_o orderly_a put_v in_o execution_n for_o though_o god_n have_v now_o send_v these_o people_n so_o good_a a_o prince_n as_o have_v banish_v idolatry_n execute_v the_o idolater_n and_o erect_v the_o true_a worship_n and_o service_n of_o god_n public_o so_o much_o as_o be_v in_o his_o power_n both_o in_o his_o own_o dominion_n of_o juda_n and_o jerusalem_n &_o also_o amongst_o his_o neighbour_n the_o israelite_n yet_o those_o reign_n people_n for_o the_o most_o part_n play_v the_o hypocrite_n and_o secret_a idolater_n and_o keep_v remnant_n or_o relic_n of_o baal_n moloch_n or_o

jeremy_n by_o the_o space_n of_o seven_o year_n before_o sophonie_n begin_v have_v threat_n preach_v to_o they_o show_v they_o their_o fault_n and_o preach_v doctrine_n for_o their_o learning_n if_o they_o will_v have_v learn_v yet_o they_o neither_o regard_v that_o great_a good_a gift_n of_o god_n namely_o so_o good_a a_o king_n that_o true_o worship_v god_n and_o defend_v true_a religion_n and_o justice_n nor_o yet_o his_o holy_a word_n and_o calling_n send_v they_o under_o the_o same_o king_n by_o the_o prophet_n jeremy_n and_o therefore_o it_o be_v that_o now_o god_n raise_v up_o

special_o when_o he_o join_v therewith_o the_o power_n of_o good_a magistrate_n and_o therefore_o when_o such_o treasure_n be_v by_o man_n neglect_v or_o contemn_v it_o be_v no_o marvel_n that_o god_o do_v threaten_v extreme_a punishment_n as_o here_o he_o do_v by_o this_o sophonie_n and_o though_o i_o contend_v not_o with_o those_o that_o do_v think_v sophonie_n do_v this_o by_o advice_n and_o
