his_o house_n 8._o solomon_n how_o glorious_a be_v his_o rise_n like_o a_o bright_a morning_n without_o cloud_n and_o so_o he_o continue_v till_o the_o evening_n of_o his_o life_n but_o when_o he_o

after_o 3._o year_n he_o forsake_v the_o lord_n and_o suffer_v the_o people_n to_o make_v they_o high_a place_n then_o say_v the_o text_n in_o the_o 5._o year_n of_o his_o reign_n god_n give_v he_o 2._o year_n respite_n 5._o he_o pour_v out_o his_o wrath_n upon_o he_o and_o upon_o jerusalem_n by_o the_o hand_n of_o shishak_n king_n of_o egypt_n because_o they_o have_v transgress_v against_o

but_o after_o in_o vers_fw-la 10._o when_o the_o lord_n have_v help_v he_o that_o he_o grow_v mighty_a then_o say_v the_o text_n his_o heart_n be_v lift_v up_o to_o destruction_n that_o even_o as_o

whereas_o on_o the_o other_o side_n you_o see_v all_o holy_a and_o good_a king_n that_o live_v the_o life_n of_o grace_n constant_o they_o shine_v in_o the_o dark_a world_n as_o star_n in_o a_o dark_a

the_o suffering_n of_o idolatry_n and_o superstition_n at_o home_n or_o the_o rest_n upon_o ashur_n and_o egypt_n abroad_o be_v the_o cause_n of_o all_o their_o misery_n for_o when_o they_o be_v in_o

at_o home_n and_o in_o all_o their_o distress_n they_o trust_v upon_o god_n and_o you_o shall_v find_v it_o proportionable_o as_o they_o do_v it_o more_o or_o less_o so_o they_o prosper_v as_o you_o may_v see_v in_o asa_n it_o be_v the_o prophet_n own_o speech_n to_o he_o from_o the_o lord_n in_o the_o 2._o chron._n 16._o 7._o 8._o say_v he_o because_o thou_o have_v rely_v on_o the_o king_n of_o

a_o huge_a host_n with_o very_a many_o chariot_n and_o horseman_n yet_o because_o thou_o rely_v upon_o the_o lord_n he_o deliver_v they_o into_o thy_o hand_n asa_n when_o a_o mighty_a company_n come_v

they_o afterward_o a_o small_a army_n escape_v his_o hand_n why_o because_o he_o rest_v upon_o the_o king_n of_o aram._n so_o likewise_o jehosaphat_n when_o he_o come_v back_o from_o help_a achab_n at_o the_o battle_n at_o ramoth_n gilead_n the_o prophet_n jehu_n meet_v he_o in_o 2._o chro._n 19_o 2._o and_o say_v unto_o himthus_fw-la oh_o jehosaphat_n will_v thou_o help_v the_o wicked_a will_v

so_o great_a encouragement_n i_o say_v if_o you_o observe_v throughout_o the_o scripture_n and_o above_o all_o other_o place_n from_o the_o 2._o chron._n 11._o to_o the_o end_n of_o the_o book_n which_o be_v exceed_v well_o worth_a the_o read_n where_o you_o have_v not_o only_o the_o story_n of_o the_o king_n set_v down_o but_o the_o cause_n of_o all_o the_o accident_n that_o do_v befall_v they_o we_o see_v all_o along_o as_o they_o live_v this_o life_n of_o grace_n as_o they_o do_v the_o action_n of_o this_o life_n that_o be_v as_o they_o keep_v their_o heart_n perfect_a with_o god_n

and_o therefore_o let_v we_o be_v exhort_v to_o live_v this_o life_n for_o certain_o every_o life_n have_v a_o excellency_n have_v a_o sweetness_n in_o it_o more_o than_o any_o mere_a be_v and_o as_o any_o life_n exceed_v another_o so_o it_o have_v it_o more_o as_o the_o life_n of_o a_o man_n exceed_v the_o life_n of_o a_o beast_n so_o the_o life_n of_o grace_n exceed_v the_o life_n of_o a_o man_n and_o therefore_o it_o be_v capacious_a of_o great_a joy_n and_o of_o great_a grief_n on_o the_o other_o side_n as_o you_o know_v the_o joy_n of_o the_o saint_n be_v unspeakable_a and_o glorious_a and_o pass_v all_o understanding_n so_o the_o despair_n and_o horror_n of_o conscience_n again_o exceed_v as_o much_o and_o let_v we_o mark_v this_o that_o as_o he_o that_o live_v the_o life_n of_o

drink_v of_o the_o cup_n of_o god_n wrath_n we_o see_v there_o the_o cup_n go_v round_o all_o the_o nation_n drink_v of_o it_o some_o more_o some_o less_o but_o yet_o if_o we_o drink_v it_o not_o yet_o certain_o god_n will_v recompense_v we_o with_o good_a if_o we_o do_v it_o with_o evil_a if_o we_o omit_v it_o for_o though_o he_o seem_v angry_a with_o his_o church_n for_o a_o time_n as_o 14._o david_n be_v with_o absalon_n yet_o joab_n never_o do_v david_n so_o acceptable_a a_o turn_n in_o all_o his_o life_n as_o when_o he_o seek_v to_o bring_v home_o absalon_n his_o banish_a son_n though_o he_o be_v angry_a with_o he_o all_o the_o while_n so_o we_o can_v do_v god_n a_o more_o acceptable_a service_n than_o to_o help_v the_o church_n though_o for_o the_o present_a she_o seem_v to_o be_v under_o the_o cloud_n of_o his_o anger_n and_o doubtless_o as_o the_o lord_n will_v take_v it_o exceed_o ill_n if_o we_o shall_v neglect_v our_o duty_n to_o they_o as_o i_o hope_v we_o do_v

at_o that_o time_n but_o yet_o the_o lord_n take_v it_o as_o do_v to_o himself_o so_o i_o say_v as_o the_o lord_n will_v take_v it_o ill_a if_o we_o do_v it_o not_o so_o again_o if_o we_o do_v it_o he_o will_v take_v it_o exceed_v well_o at_o our_o hand_n this_o work_n have_v meat_n in_o the_o mouth_n of_o it_o it_o will_v bring_v 18._o a_o sure_a reward_n with_o it_o even_o as_o 12._o the_o
