be_v still_o as_o malicious_a and_o industrious_a as_o ever_o to_o put_v they_o upon_o this_o we_o read_v of_o satan_n in_o that_o 1_o pet._n 5.8_o that_o he_o go_v up_o and_o down_o like_o a_o roar_a lion_n seek_v who_o he_o may_v devour_v and_o as_o far_o as_o the_o lord_n permit_v he_o he_o act_v wicked_a man_n in_o who_o he_o rule_v eph._n 2.2_o to_o do_v what_o mischief_n they_o can_v to_o the_o godly_a yea_o and_o in_o the_o last_o time_n he_o be_v so_o far_o from_o abate_v his_o rage_n as_o that_o we_o read_v his_o wrath_n grow_v the_o hot_a because_o he_o know_v he_o have_v but_o a_o short_a time_n rev._n 12.12_o while_o therefore_o the_o principle_n of_o enmity_n which_o be_v in_o the_o wicked_a against_o the_o saint_n remain_v and_o while_o the_o ground_n of_o their_o hatred_n continue_v and_o satan_n be_v as_o industrious_o stir_v they_o up_o as_o ever_o nought_o else_o can_v be_v expect_v but_o that_o they_o watch_v the_o righteous_a to_o do_v they_o a_o mischief_n but_o now_o where_o shall_v the_o righteous_a do_v shall_v he_o render_v evil_a for_o evil_n and_o watch_v the_o wicked_a that_o he_o may_v mischieve_v they_o god_n forbid_v what_o shall_v he_o forsake_v his_o righteousness_n and_o leave_v off_o to_o be_v godly_a no_o in_o no_o wise_a but_o if_o you_o will_v know_v o_o you_o saint_n and_o righteous_a one_o what_o to_o do_v in_o this_o case_n i_o be_o send_v of_o god_n at_o this_o time_n to_o instruct_v you_o that_o it_o will_v be_v your_o best_a way_n to_o wait_v on_o she_o lord_n and_o keep_v his_o way_n and_o so_o i_o come_v to_o what_o be_v express_o assert_v in_o the_o point_n that_o however_o it_o go_v with_o the_o true_o godly_a here_o in_o this_o world_n more_o especial_o when_o the_o wicked_a watch_v the_o righteous_a to_o mischieve_v they_o it_o be_v their_o best_a way_n to_o wait_v on_o the_o lord_n and_o keep_v his_o way_n here_o i_o shall_v speak_v by_o way_n of_o explication_n in_o show_v 1._o what_o it_o be_v to_o wait_v on_o the_o lord_n 2._o what_o it_o be_v to_o keep_v his_o way_n first_o to_o wait_v on_o the_o lord_n be_v take_v more_o large_o or_o more_o strict_o 1._o more_o large_o and_o so_o it_o be_v the_o same_o with_o serve_v the_o lord_n attend_v and_o follow_v the_o lord_n and_o take_v in_o the_o whole_a duty_n of_o the_o saint_n wait_v on_o the_o lord_n as_o a_o soldier_n on_o his_o captain_n or_o as_o a_o servant_n on_o his_o master_n psal_n 123.2_o behold_v as_o the_o eye_n of_o the_o servant_n look_v to_o the_o hand_n of_o their_o master_n and_o as_o the_o eye_n of_o a_o maiden_n unto_o the_o hand_n of_o her_o mistress_n so_o our_o eye_n wait_v on_o the_o lord_n our_o god_n so_o in_o that_o hos_fw-la 12.6_o turn_v thou_o to_o thy_o god_n and_o keep_v mercy_n and_o judgement_n and_o wait_v on_o thy_o god_n continual_o 2._o more_o strict_o and_o so_o it_o intend_v a_o patient_a expect_v the_o lord_n salvation_n it_o be_v the_o continue_a exercise_n of_o faith_n and_o hope_n it_o be_v faith_n and_o hope_n eekt_v out_o so_o here_o verse_n 7._o rest_v on_o the_o lord_n wait_v patient_o so_o psal_n 130._o when_o he_o cry_v out_o of_o the_o depth_n as_o he_o say_v verse_n 1._o then_o verse_n 5._o i_o wait_v for_o the_o lord_n my_o soul_n do_v wait_v and_o in_o his_o word_n do_v i_o hope_v my_o soul_n wait_v for_o the_o lord_n more_o than_o they_o that_o watch_v for_o the_o morning_n i_o say_v more_o than_o they_o that_o watch_v for_o the_o morning_n we_o have_v both_o these_o together_o in_o that_o lam._n 3.25_o 26._o the_o lord_n be_v good_a to_o they_o that_o wait_v for_o he_o to_o the_o soul_n that_o seek_v he_o there_o it_o be_v take_v as_o large_o as_o seek_v after_o god_n but_o it_o follow_v it_o be_v good_a that_o a_o man_n shall_v both_o hope_n and_o quiet_o wait_v for_o the_o salvation_n of_o the_o lord_n there_o it_o be_v take_v for_o the_o continue_a exercise_n of_o hope_n for_o a_o patient_a expectation_n of_o the_o lord_n salvation_n second_o what_o it_o be_v to_o keep_v the_o way_n of_o the_o lord_n here_o mind_n the_o way_n of_o the_o lord_n may_v be_v understand_v of_o that_o way_n wherein_o he_o walk_v towards_o his_o people_n which_o be_v apt_o style_v the_o way_n of_o his_o providence_n or_o of_o that_o way_n wherein_o he_o require_v his_o people_n to_o walk_v towards_o he_o and_o be_v proper_o style_v the_o way_n of_o his_o precept_n 1._o there_o be_v the_o way_n of_o god_n providence_n in_o which_o he_o walk_v towards_o we_o of_o which_o that_o psal_n 18.30_o speak_v as_o for_o god_n his_o way_n be_v perfect_a so_o psal_n 25.10_o all_o the_o path_n or_o way_n of_o the_o lord_n be_v mercy_n and_o truth_n unto_o such_o as_o keep_v his_o covenant_n and_o testimony_n now_o if_o it_o be_v thus_o take_v here_o then_o to_o keep_v his_o way_n be_v diligent_o to_o attend_v his_o hand_n and_o to_o observe_v his_o carriage_n and_o order_v in_o all_o that_o befall_v his_o people_n more_o especial_o in_o all_o that_o trouble_n that_o come_v on_o they_o for_o whatever_o trouble_n come_v upon_o the_o people_n of_o god_n and_o whoever_o be_v the_o instrument_n of_o inflict_v the_o lord_n have_v his_o way_n in_o it_o mic._n 6.9_o order_v it_o as_o to_o the_o kind_n as_o to_o the_o measure_n as_o to_o the_o season_n as_o to_o the_o continuance_n as_o to_o the_o end_n and_o fruit_n now_o to_o observe_v the_o lord_n hand_n and_o to_o attend_v his_o way_n in_o order_v his_o providence_n and_o our_o trouble_n this_o be_v to_o keep_v his_o way_n so_o isa_n 26.8_o in_o the_o way_n of_o thy_o judgement_n we_o have_v wait_v for_o thou_o as_o if_o he_o have_v say_v we_o have_v wait_v on_o the_o lord_n and_o keep_v his_o way_n 2._o there_o be_v the_o way_n of_o god_n precept_n in_o which_o he_o command_v his_o people_n to_o walk_v and_o thus_o be_v this_o phrase_n most_o common_o take_v so_o 2_o king_n 21.22_o where_o it_o be_v say_v of_o amon_n he_o forsake_v the_o lord_n god_n of_o his_o father_n and_o walk_v not_o in_o the_o way_n of_o the_o lord_n i.e._n not_o in_o the_o way_n of_o his_o commandment_n thus_o david_n speak_v of_o the_o way_n of_o his_o precept_n in_o psal_n 119.27_o make_v i_o understand_v the_o way_n of_o thy_o precept_n and_o if_o it_o be_v take_v thus_o then_o to_o keep_v the_o way_n of_o the_o lord_n be_v to_o walk_v in_o his_o statute_n and_o to_o observe_v his_o commandment_n to_o do_v they_o so_o gen._n 18.19_o the_o lord_n testify_v of_o abraham_n i_o know_v he_o that_o he_o will_v command_v his_o child_n and_o his_o household_n after_o he_o and_o they_o shall_v keep_v the_o way_n of_o the_o lord_n to_o do_v justice_n and_o judgement_n so_o in_o job_n 23.11_o 12._o my_o foot_n have_v hold_v his_o step_n his_o way_n have_v i_o keep_v and_o not_o decline_v neither_o have_v i_o go_v back_o from_o the_o commandment_n of_o his_o lip_n so_o to_o walk_v in_o his_o way_n and_o to_o keep_v his_o commandment_n be_v the_o same_o deut._n 26.17_o and_o psal_n 119.1_o 2._o so_o that_o the_o sum_n of_o all_o be_v however_o it_o be_v with_o the_o true_o godly_a more_o especial_o when_o the_o wicked_a do_v watch_v they_o to_o do_v they_o a_o mischief_n their_o best_a way_n be_v to_o attend_v on_o the_o lord_n to_o follow_v he_o to_o walk_v on_o in_o the_o way_n of_o his_o commandment_n so_o eye_v the_o hand_n of_o the_o lord_n in_o all_o that_o befall_v they_o as_o they_o that_o patient_o expect_v and_o quiet_o wait_v for_o the_o salvation_n of_o the_o lord_n thus_o for_o explication_n i_o now_o come_v to_o the_o demonstration_n which_o shall_v be_v dispatch_v by_o clear_v that_o it_o be_v the_o honest_a the_o wise_a the_o safe_a the_o most_o comfortable_a and_o most_o honourable_a way_n first_o this_o be_v the_o most_o innocent_a just_a and_o honest_a way_n yea_o true_o this_o be_v the_o only_a good_a honest_a and_o right_a way_n i_o be_o to_o show_v what_o be_v the_o best_a for_o a_o godly_a man_n to_o who_o no_o way_n be_v good_a but_o what_o be_v just_a and_o honest_a there_o be_v indeed_o other_o way_n which_o a_o man_n may_v take_v when_o he_o be_v in_o trouble_n through_o the_o wicked_n watch_a he_o to_o do_v he_o a_o mischief_n whereby_o to_o escape_v the_o mischief_n intend_v he_o but_o they_o be_v not_o just_a and_o honest_a i_o shall_v instance_n in_o these_o 1._o by_o sinful_a comply_v with_o the_o wicked_a in_o their_o ungodly_a way_n thereby_o to_o abate_v the_o edge_n of_o their_o wrath_n this_o be_v the_o way_n peter_n take_v when_o in_o the_o high_a priest_n hall_n he_o not_o only_o deny_v his_o
