any_o injurious_a action_n of_o manifest_a adversary_n as_o we_o may_v see_v in_o that_o psalm_n of_o david_n where_o he_o say_v sure_o my_o enemy_n do_v not_o defame_v i_o for_o i_o can_v have_v

every_o one_o with_o his_o neighbour_n flatter_v with_o their_o lip_n and_o speak_v with_o a_o double_a heart_n these_o word_n contain_v in_o they_o a_o prayer_n of_o david_n when_o he_o himself_o

of_o god_n name_n which_o former_o they_o have_v make_v now_o in_o this_o prayer_n of_o he_o we_o may_v observe_v 1._o first_o a_o petition_n help_v lord_n see_v man_n help_n fail_v and_o their_o

truth_n they_o plot_v against_o he_o help_v lord_n here_o we_o see_v his_o refuge_n 1._o he_o betake_v himself_o unto_o god_n when_o he_o be_v forsake_v of_o man_n whence_o observe_v this_o doctrine_n that_o although_o all_o humane_a help_n and_o earthly_a friend_n do_v fail_v god_n people_n helpless_a yet_o they_o be_v not_o helpless_a nor_o hopeless_a albeit_o in_o regard_n of_o man_n assistance_n they_o be_v utter_o destitute_a yet_o the_o lord_n will_v be_v ever_o with_o they_o and_o always_o stand_v for_o they_o david_n argument_n here_o be_v not_o this_o lord_n help_n for_o there_o be_v many_o that_o will_v join_v with_o thou_o but_o this_o lord_n help_n for_o there_o be_v none_o else_o that_o will_v help_v so_o that_o our_o case_n be_v not_o according_a to_o man_n affection_n towards_o we_o but_o according_a to_o god_n love_n unto_o us._n this_o be_v evident_a in_o the_o prophecy_n of_o micha_n 2._o where_o it_o be_v show_v that_o friend_n fail_v neither_o do_v they_o fail_v one_o man_n alone_o but_o the_o whole_a church_n good_a man_n be_v perish_v out_o of_o the_o earth_n and_o there_o be_v none_o righteous_a among_o man_n &c_n &c_n but_o the_o best_a of_o they_o be_v a_o briar_n and_o the_o most_o rightteous_a of_o they_o sharp_a than_o a_o throne_n hedge_n yet_o the_o church_n be_v not_o quite_o dismay_v but_o resolve_v to_o fly_v unto_o the_o lord_n for_o succour_v therefore_o will_v i_o look_v unto_o the_o lord_n 7._o i_o will_v wait_v for_o god_n my_o saviour_n my_o god_n will_v hear_v i_o though_o good_a man_n be_v dead_a and_o go_v and_o hypocrite_n do_v put_v on_o their_o shape_n and_o likeness_n that_o they_o may_v more_o free_o practice_v mischief_n yet_o the_o people_n of_o god_n determine_v with_o themselves_o not_o to_o cast_v off_o all_o hope_n but_o to_o rely_v upon_o the_o lord_n and_o though_o he_o delay_v to_o help_v they_o for_o a_o time_n yet_o they_o will_v wait_v upon_o he_o know_v that_o at_o length_n he_o will_v deal_v gracious_o with_o they_o and_o for_o the_o further_a confirmation_n of_o this_o point_n we_o have_v the_o example_n of_o christ_n jesus_n himself_o who_o be_v grievous_o perplex_v and_o trouble_v within_o and_o without_o and_o on_o every_o side_n use_v this_o argument_n unto_o his_o father_n be_v not_o far_o from_o i_o 11._o because_o trouble_n be_v near_o for_o there_o be_v none_o to_o help_v i_o and_o this_o be_v usual_a with_o god_n to_o relieve_v his_o people_n in_o extremity_n and_o therefore_o when_o no_o man_n call_v for_o justice_n no_o man_n contend_v for_o the_o truth_n etc._n etc._n then_o he_o himself_o will_v take_v the_o matter_n into_o his_o hand_n &_o he_o will_v save_v &_o deliver_v his_o servant_n as_o the_o prophet_n isaiah_n witness_v 16._o and_o the_o reason_n hereof_o be_v these_o first_o reason_n though_o all_o man_n do_v forsake_v we_o yet_o god_n power_n be_v no_o whit_n diminish_v thereby_o and_o therefore_o that_o be_v a_o worthy_a speech_n of_o faith_n in_o jonathan_n that_o it_o be_v not_o hard_o to_o the_o lord_n to_o save_v with_o many_o or_o with_o few_o and_o in_o asa_n who_o say_v 6._o it_o be_v nothing_o to_o thou_o to_o
