ungrateful_a as_o it_o give_v he_o just_a cause_n to_o be_v like_o a_o stranger_n among_o they_o and_o to_o employ_v his_o power_n no_o long_o for_o their_o salvation_n only_o this_o they_o can_v say_v that_o he_o be_v not_o yet_o depart_v upon_o which_o the_o prophet_n ground_n some_o hope_n he_o may_v be_v prevail_v withal_o to_o stay_v with_o they_o yet_o o_o lord_n thou_o be_v in_o the_o

of_o fear_n that_o notwithstanding_o these_o address_n to_o he_o he_o may_v forsake_v they_o how_o like_o our_o condition_n be_v to_o they_o i_o need_v not_o stay_v to_o tell_v you_o we_o have_v too_o much_o cause_n to_o fear_v lest_o god_n who_o be_v our_o only_a hope_n and_o have_v be_v heretofore_o our_o saviour_n shall_v let_v we_o reap_v the_o fruit_n of_o our_o own_o do_n and_o interpose_v no_o far_o for_o our_o deliverance_n he_o show_v we_o indeed_o what_o he_o be_v ready_a to_o do_v for_o we_o if_o we_o be_v dispose_v to_o receive_v his_o new_a offer_n of_o salvation_n but_o we_o

another_o course_n and_o be_v as_o the_o prophet_n here_o speak_v like_o a_o mighty_a man_n that_o can_v save_v have_v weary_v himself_o with_o unprofitable_a care_n and_o pain_n for_o our_o welfare_n but_o we_o ought_v not_o for_o all_o this_o to_o cast_v away_o all_o hope_n in_o he_o since_o it_o be_v apparent_a by_o the_o unexpected_a discovery_n he_o have_v make_v of_o the_o horrid_a design_n of_o our_o enemy_n against_o we_o that_o he_o be_v still_o in_o the_o midst_n of_o we_o nay_o be_v desirous_a if_o we_o be_v willing_a to_o save_v we_o and_o therefore_o the_o fear_n and_o sad_a

may_v prevail_v with_o he_o i_o shall_v endeavour_v 1._o first_o to_o make_v you_o sensible_a what_o a_o privilege_n what_o a_o glory_n and_o security_n it_o be_v to_o have_v god_n in_o the_o midst_n of_o we_o that_o so_o you_o may_v be_v awaken_v to_o use_v your_o best_a endeavour_n to_o keep_v he_o with_o we_o 2._o and_o you_o will_v be_v more_o excite_v to_o this_o if_o i_o brief_o show_v you_o in_o the_o second_o place_n that_o this_o extraordinary_a presence_n of_o god_n with_o the_o people_n will_v not_o secure_v they_o from_o the_o severe_a punishment_n if_o they_o be_v disobedient_a to_o he_o nor_o be_v any_o reason_n for_o their_o presumption_n that_o he_o be_v immutable_o tie_v to_o they_o no_o 3._o it_o will_v be_v apparent_a that_o it_o ought_v rather_o to_o be_v expect_v he_o shall_v punish_v they_o because_o of_o his_o care_n of_o they_o express_v by_o this_o phrase_n and_o that_o he_o shall_v quite_o leave_v they_o if_o they_o will_v not_o be_v amend_v by_o those_o punishment_n because_o they_o be_v insensible_a of_o his_o care_n 4._o and_o how_o great_a a_o plague_n that_o be_v i_o believe_v you_o will_v be_v sensible_a though_o i_o say_v nothing_o of_o it_o and_o therefore_o 5._o in_o the_o last_o place_n i_o shall_v direct_v you_o how_o to_o prevent_v it_o by_o such_o prayer_n to_o god_n as_o may_v obtain_v the_o favour_n of_o his_o continue_a presence_n with_o we_o i._o the_o first_o of_o these_o will_v need_v no_o other_o illustration_n but_o the_o explain_n of_o these_o two_o phrase_n in_o my_o text_n thou_o be_v in_o the_o midst_n of_o

we_o may_v now_o upon_o the_o same_o account_n make_v our_o boast_n of_o above_o many_o other_o nation_n the_o explication_n of_o the_o latter_a depend_v upon_o the_o former_a for_o therefore_o they_o
