and_o place_n of_o the_o most_o curse_a enemy_n of_o god_n and_o his_o people_n and_o therefore_o god_n will_v be_v unto_o they_o what_o he_o be_v unto_o the_o worst_a of_o those_o his_o adversary_n 3._o that_o which_o god_n proper_o in_o that_o place_n assume_v this_o title_n unto_o himself_o upon_o be_v the_o cruelty_n and_o rage_n of_o those_o adversary_n in_o the_o persecution_n and_o

and_o unto_o sin_n although_o he_o have_v allow_v infliction_n of_o punishment_n on_o offender_n in_o order_n unto_o the_o government_n and_o peace_n of_o the_o world_n in_o magistrate_n and_o

satisfaction_n unto_o themselves_o in_o punishment_n but_o it_o be_v unto_o their_o evil_a affection_n which_o make_v it_o useless_a and_o unjust_a hence_o david_n bless_v god_n that_o he_o have_v keep_v he_o from_o avenge_a himself_n on_o nabal_n for_o there_o be_v no_o vengeance_n but_o what_o be_v exert_v by_o a_o man_n self_n in_o his_o own_o case_n and_o cause_n the_o judgement_n unto_o

hence_o he_o call_v it_o the_o year_n of_o vengeance_n and_o the_o day_n of_o recompense_n so_o here_o i_o will_v repay_v it_o say_v the_o lord_n this_o be_v so_o god_n have_v say_v that_o vengeance_n belong_v unto_o he_o and_o that_o it_o be_v due_a unto_o provoke_a sin_n and_o sinner_n that_o it_o be_v in_o his_o power_n and_o his_o 〈◊〉_d alone_a to_o inflict_v it_o when_o and_o how_o he_o
