They all stink with abominable corruption folly and goe backward and dare not com foorth but are a frayed abashed that God hath forsaken them because they are expelled for their trespass and their bones all scattered in captivity Shall wee sinn that grace may abound God forbid sayth the Apostle So all molesters and workers of Mischeff that call not upon God eat of the tree of life and devoure it like bread destroy the Scriptures and make havok of the word and spend the mercyes of God and waste and consume the people of God and eat up the Church with profanenes So the question is not wher man is but wher a good-man is and ther is no such which is the Mystery of this Psalme by repetition of the wordes The matter wherby it hangeth to the former Psalme is that they all love falshood more then truthe and wrong more then righteousnes and therfor they receiue the wages of sinn which is death because they loved not life nor the word of God that should save their soules Construction Nun to spring or grow the contrary is to fade or to be defective So the wicked are in the fear of God in dooing of good as Ps. 34. or of wisdom in not calling upon him Ghimel to doe good so bothe the Wiseman and the Goodman is wanting by their workes Both the letters make Nag of Nagah to be cleer Mark the doubling of the termns and it will express the intendement Exodus The Fear for the fear of God and the dispair that the wicked make Because God the Fear that guardeth them that fear him and worship him Psal. 34. hath scattered them The not serving of God because hee lets his people goe into captivity doth much hurt among them and freats them and much dismayes them therfor they pray for return The people are not in the right fear and ther is a defect in the service and the Sacrifice is reprooved as yf it would bee mended yf God would releas his people For with them ther is no God or els they dispair of the right God c. So the termnes Fear and God are equall heer and the one soundes to the other to express the same As the Fear of Isaack for the God of Isaack Gen. 31. PSALM LIV. SAtan shall seek to fann and winnow you like wheat and som of you shall hee cast into prison Ther is no safe place for the man of God but the divill and tirants will finde him out and beewray him strangers and such as have no respect of God at all as Ps. 53. as were the Zips which made haste to tell Saul as soon as they could discry him amongst them And thus bee all placees sifted for him that hee can have no rest which maketh him in the next Psalme wish for the wings of a dove to fly from them far enough into the wildernes for rest and all is for his life This sheweth that the rich hath many freendes and all places will serv the mighty Wherever David goeeth or wherever hee hide-eth Saul can hear of him Sayth Eliah they have slain thy Prophetes and I onely am left alive and they seek my life the same may bee sayed of David and more ther is onely one good man left and one after Gods own hart and they seek his life but this is the hower power of darknes From these David prayeth that seeing all their dooing is against God and his word and that God is all his help and confidence and the Lord is with them that sustein him that hee would by his victorious Name and light of his word defend him and save him and reward his Enimyes with the evill and destroy them as Ps. 89. according to his promiss That hee may liberally and freely sacrifice to him and worship his beneficiall Name and his word and the calling upon him for delivering him from all distress to stand in the face of his Enimye and behold him Construction Nun defective The whole is upon desolation resisting and deprivation as strangers and aliens and cruell ones they that are clean without God Eph. 2. that seek his life on the one part and on the contrary Assisting saveing and defending by the great calling upon God According to the word Nun to spring or wax great Ps. 72.
