9 For why should the wicked rule over thy Sanctuary and drive out thy beloved ones 10 Yea let themselves be cursed g which intend me evil and let them with thee O God find no mercy 11 Let them be totally rooted out with root and branch for they fall on me very heavily and bring an evil report on me among the people 12 Yea they are such which appeared as friends h did eat bread with me daily and are become secret Traytors to me 13 For those which somtimes praysed me and were friendly when I was in prosperity now reproach hate me most of all 14 Yea my wife i which lyeth in my arms who is one flesh and bone with me where all my heart delight comfort and mind was fixed bringeth also all wicked out-cryes against me with all accusations for to condemn me 15 Now when I consider all this and that all things are averse and fall contrary to me which formerly I loved so it afflicteth me much more then the rebuking of God 16 But seeing all my love is thus requited with malice therefore all my oppression misery and anxiety is a heavy burthen above measure 17 Now when I out of my heavy burthen call on God then mine enemies which sometimes were my friends k rise up against me 18 They reproved and l contested with me why I was so bold and presumptuous as to call to God for mercy 19 They all cryed against me with one voice Thou hast neither help nor m comfort with the Almighty for he hath poured forth his wrath on thee everlastingly 20 There stood my soul before the Tribunal and I was very much perplexed in my heart and strongly bound with the cords of sinne and was heavily accused of the enemies of life 21 I look't up to the highest and down again to the lowest and round about me far and near whether any one did take to heart my cause for to defend me n but I found none 22 But my enemies which sought my life and were against me o stood in great multitudes even as grass in the field round about me to condemn me 23 And my wayes which sometimes they commended for good they presented before me as evil to a great accusation and I beheld them all as an p abomination of desolation 24 This same grieved me exceedingly and I suffered great great sadness with heavy oppression in my heart 25 Where-ever I did go or stand q there was I surrounded with my enemies and they speak nothing but evil against me 26 And I was full of wo in my soul sadness and out of great anguish I called on the Lord for help or else I had perished CHAP. XV Psalme X. 1 O God a hearken to my crying and sighing let my lamentation come into thine eares and let me not b remain ashamed 2 I am now faln in the sin c and am estranged from thy light and go up and down as one that is condemned and lost 3 I am as the weakest among the children of men d for there is no strength of any vertue in me 4 Those that look on me according to the judgement of mine enemies abhor me e for my enemies cry all shame and disgrace upon me 5 But thou O Lord in whom I hope let me not perish in the darkness but f inlighten me with thy light and take away my shame and reproach 6 For my sins and transgressions are a loathing to me and to do any thing which thou hast prohibited or is against thy will is no pleasure to my soul 7 But I remember thee in my anguish and take a g delight in thy righteousness 8 Therefore O Lord take not the rod of thy correction from me until that I love thy law and forget not that which thou hast commanded 9 O God my mouth is made dumbe h to speak of thy truth through shamefastness of my sin 10 For they stand as an abomination in my sight and have made me dismaid in my mind 11 The ungodly reigned over me and would draw me from thy law that I O God should no more think on thee and thy law 12 They have presented lies before me as a snare and had honey in their lips i wherewith they kissed me friendly 13 But k poison was under their tongue and they mingled that same in my soul and they O God stirred up thy wrath against me 14 For those which were friendly in their falshood and made a shew as if they loved me have brought me to shame 15 But they themselves must fall into the pit l and perish in the destruction which they have prepared for my soul CHAP. XVI Psalme XI 1 O God a make hast to come unto me that my enemies which wait to destroy my soul may be destroyed that I may highly b praise thy Name in the land c of the living 2 Root out the ungodly make thy salvation break forth and let thy Name be glorious over all thine enemies 3 O Lord thou Eternal and Almighty God forsake me not d for my ignorance remember not O God for ever mine errours in the time of my youth 4 But teach e in thy truth that I may praise thy goodness and may highly esteem of thy correction and not forget thy righteousness 5 I rejoyce me in my soul when as thy hand of correction hūbleth me under thee 6 And that I endure my punishment for the folly and ignorance of my youth 7 That I might have my walking among the f Elders in Israel and have my habitation among the Citizens of Jerusalem 8 Therefore O God circumcise g the fore-skin of my heart to me and take away from me the fore-skin of my evil thoughts 9 That I may come up to worship with thy people h into thy holy Temple or Tabernacle and with i offerings and gifts which may be acceptable and well pleasing unto thee for an eternal joy upon mount Sion 10 O Lord help yea O God Iesu help and draw my spirit to thee in thy holy heaven in thy appearing to me in glory CHAP. XVII Psalme XII 1 HOw long shall I O God want thy goodness or when shall I be delivered from the sin 2 Have I hoped in thee in vain or hidest a thou thy goodness for a while from me 3 Let me intreat thee O God b strengthen me and lead me aright O God lead me aright otherwayes must I perish by reason of my sin 4 O Lord hear thy servant who is full of sorrow and misery 5 Ah how long shall I be deaf before I shall hear how long shall I yet be blind before I shall see how long shall I be dying before that I live 6 Is there then c no remnant unto righteousness left for me O God must I then perish in my sins 7 O God

the inheritance of the Lord Let us accuse Him x that is his body and bloud or his Fellowship of Love with all manner of malignity or unjust actions and let us charge him with most wicked things let us destroy or kill him with the most shamefullest sufferings or let him be delivered up to the Iudge to his * slaughter or destruction So remain y we in the Inheritance in the estimation among men that we are pure upright and have right in our cause or demands against him his Communialty of Love 44 Thus we observed in the union with the Body and bloud of Jesus Christ that the wicked hardened hearts against us the Body bloud of Jesus Christ likewise the apostates from the obedience of the Truth did all their endeavour or diligence to have the estimation amongst z men as if they against that Body and bloud of Jesus Christ and against us were * upright and did well therein although they earnestly endevoured wholy to dishonour Jesus Christ and us and to make us detestable before men and likewise that precious pure bloud of Jesus Christ that was to the forgiveness of sinnes d shead for many wherewith we with our bloud are become one bloud to defame as impure before all men so that the same is * despised for unclean among many And as unclean might be poured forth and trampled upon 45 Now when we thus observed the rising up of the wicked and all Hypocrites and enemies of the Godly Life against the Body and bloud of Jesus Christ And beheld that the Body bloud of Jesus Christ wherewith we were become one body and bloud was suffering all that with lowly and meek hearts without resisting so we saw and observed that the same Body and bloud of Jesus Christ in all his suffering and reproach opened a not his mouth even as a Lambe that is led to the slaughter-house and as a sheep that is dumbe before his shearer Where through we also in all our sufferings wherewith we were one Body and bloud with him were wholy moved with his sufferings So that we also in our whole Body and bloud obteined an inclination to suffer with them we found our selves wholy prepared rather to suffer to die with him forasmuch as we knew him righteous then to live in sin with the falshood of the false hearts with the sin of sinners and enemies of the Godly life 46 And thus travelling forth in this-Good-willingness with Jesus Christ b we came on the seventh sixth day to the * accomplishing of the sufferings of Jesus Christ wherein we observed the whole summe of the finishing and fulfilling or satisfaction of Jesus Christ and his Believers unto the true Godliness 47 For in this fulfilling or or accomplishing we perceived in the understanding That all men who will live and reign with the Lord Jesus Christ in his Glory must also c suffer with Christ and then likewise with Christ enter into the Glory of Christ and inherit the same 48 Furthermore wee observed also in this accomplishment to what end this Gospel of the Kingdom is d published in all the World and from thence cometh the accomplishment and fulfilling of e all that is written of Christ and the salvation of man 49 There was also in the same * accomplishment fully revealed and in clearness made manifest * unto us The whole Scripture which testifieth of Christ and of his Sufferings or Passeover and of the upright righteousness of men in Jesus Christ And f how that Christ like as we have heard and seen of him in his sufferings and passed through with him must suffer all these things and so to enter into his Glory and thus g go before all sinful men in to the entrance of the eternal life and the Kingdom of Heavens that they also should follow after him therein and inherit with him the eternal life 50 For Christ h must thus * suffer and accomplish his love to us and so go before us as an * Innocent and that he also by his guiltless sufferings should be an example or patern to all sinful men and thereby to shew unto them that they by reason of their sins are debtors to the same sufferings and as debtors to i follow him therein and to draw unto him all men who are loaden with sins and also to acquit them though his Body and bloud and through his like sufferings from their sins to deliver k them from the bonds of death and to save them and restore or bring them again with him in all upright righteousness and holiness to their God his heavenly Father and to his glory in the kingdom of God and in the everlasting life 51 And that wee might uprightly endeavour us to this aforesaid accomplishment with the Lord Jesus Christ and the * humanity and rightly enter into and inherit the same with the Lord Jesus Christ according to the truth of Jesus Christ and according to the requiring of the obedience of his belief So gave wee up our selves there on the same seventh sixth day of our travelling into a good * custody with the Body and bloud of Jesus Christ which standeth upon the Mount Nebo l on the uppermost height top or firmness from whence we obtein'd the sight of the holy inheritance of God of his living ones 52 And on the same Mount * Nebo there was revealed and made known unto us also m the secret place where the Prophet Jeremian had hid the true Tabernacle and Ark and the true Altar of the Offerings of Incense And the time also was come or accomplished in which the Lord should be merciful unto his people and bring them to his rest 53 And the same good * watchfunless to which we betook our selves on the Mount Nebo was the true n implanting with Christ in his like death and the right implanting with Christ in his like burial 54 Of this implanting with Christ in his like death and of the implanting with Christ in his like burial wee were very firmly embraced 55 At the same instant in the embracing of the implanting with Christ in his like death and burial we offered to the God of Heaven on his Altar of Incense in the Holy of the true Tabernacle our free willing Offering in the Offering * of the High Priest Jesus Christ And o the Offering of the High Priest Jesus Christ kindled or fired our Offering And thus our Offering was a hollowed burnt Offering before the Lord And the Lord Jesus Christ made this our Offering through his Offering acceptable before God his Father and the holy of his Tabernacle was full of sweet perfumes and the p veile opened asunder and the most holiest in his pure and perfect beauty was revealed and Christ also according to

the Spirit as High Priest in the same most holy as a minister of the spiritual and heavenly Goods 56 Thus had the Lord our heavenly Father through the Offering of our High Priest Jesus Christ to the accomplishing of the dayly God-service in the holy of the true Tabernacle a great delight in the accomplishing of our Offering and God-service in the holy of the true Tabernacle of Jesus Christ under the obedience of the Beliefe 57 Which freedom to the entrance into the said holy for to perform to the living God of heaven such acceptable Offering and pleasing Service of God we have obtained and purchased through the bloud of Jesus Christ Yea verily to the accomplishing of the same hath Jesus Christ prepared for us the entrance into the Holy by a new and living way the q veil that is through his flesh 58 And thus when we had finished or fulfilled our Offering and God-service under the obedience of the Belief in the offering and God-service of our Lord r Jesus Christ wee rested us with Christ in his like death and burial on the nine and fortieth day of our journey 59 And thus on the nine and fortieth day resting us in our Lord Jesus Christ from our work and labour we have perfected or * fulfilled our journey and our offering and God-service with Jesus Christ in the holy under the obedience of the Belief And thus through Christ according to the Spirit wee have gotten and obteined the ministration of the spiritual and heavenly Goods and the everlasting life CHAP. XXXII 1 BUt on the fiftieth day of our journey on the fifteenth day of the first moneth on the day of Phase or Pasche came into us a still soft silent voice wind or Spirit And we were enlightned in Christ with the a clearness or brightness of Christ And thus in our illuminating * on the same fiftieth day there appeared to us in a cloud the living God-head of our Lord Jesus Christ and became altogether of one being with us and gathered us to the Mercy-Seat of his divine Majesty and also to the holy Mount Sion b where the Law or Ordinance of the Lord is promised to go forth at the last time And to the true Jerusalem where the Word of the Lord at the last time is likewise promised to go forth 2 And the Lord gave his mighty great sound out of Sion and caused his voice to be heard out of Jerusalem And so c flowed the Law or Ordinance of the Lord out of Sion And his Word forth of Jerusalem And the Scripture of the Godly Testimonies were accomplished in us and with us in Jesus Christ And the former kingdom full of all pure beauty and heavenly riches and full of all vertues a●d upright righteousness which God from the beginning d hath prepared for the man was shewed unto us in his perfect adorning and we were inherited therein eternally and it was all e restored again to us in us and with us what God had spoken wrought and appointed and promised through the mouthes of his holy Prophets from the beginning of the World 3 And that same is the new day and the manifestation of the kingdom of Heavens and his righteousness wherein all Believers of Jesus Christ who follow after Jesus Christ f to the second birth do inherit And the same new day with the fulnesse of his beauties riches and vertues is the day of which the Kingly Prophet David hath of old Evangelized like as there standeth written this is the g day the Lord hath made let us rejoyce and be glad therein 4 And thus in these wonderfull works of God the word of the Lord came to H N and said This holy Land which thou here at this present beholdest and wherein thou art now everlastingly inherited is the holy inheritance of my living-ones h and is my rest and the holy place of my dwelling it is also the true Rest which I have promised my people Israel and all the holy-ones of my Christ and have given it for an eternall inheritance 5 It is my true Building i that I my selfe have prepared for all those who love mee and whereinto I gather all my Lovers to mee and to my people and it is my holy and godly understanding wherein I live eternally and in which I illuminate and endue all the Believers of my Christ in their second birth with such an abounding godly understanding That they far excel all humane and Letter-learned knowledges and in the life of my godly clearness far surmount the same 6 It is my durable kingdom k wherein I will for ever plant and firmly settle all mine Elect to an eternal rest and perfectly joy now in the last times 7 And I have from everlasting ordained them thereunto to manifest therein for ever and ever my heavenly wonders and also to declare the same from thence upon the earth for a witness That I the Lord who am an eternal and living God live from everlasting to everlasting l And that I now at the last time m bring upon the earth the judgment and the righteousness and the Majesty of my divine Glory 8 Therefore shalt thou H. N together with the four and twenty Elders and the four Seraphims dwell with me and all my holy ones in this my holy place eternally 9 And the declaration of my upright Godliness which thou here hast received from my n uncovered face shalt thou also make known upon the earth And with the testimonies of my righteousness and with the publication of the joyful message of my Kingdome enlighten the whole World and so declare that now my true kingdom of heavens with the fulness of it's pure beauty and heavenly riches is appeared manifested and comne upon the earth according to the promises to the salvation and blessing of all men who with their whole hearts seek the same and the righteousness thereof 10 I also will yet shew unto thee in this holy place of my living-ones more of my heavenly workings and give thee also to understand many mysteries which hitherto hath not bin known to the o world Also what my last Will or Testament is of the ministration of my most holy Priestly Office under the obedience of my Love 11 For from hence-forth in this day will I look upon the estranging of men from my Truth with the eyes of compassion to give unto them out of my Priestly Office of Love p the true repentance for their sins and shew forth the true entrance of the Goodlife 12 And because that all men in their estranging or before they out of the doctrine of my grarlous word and out of the holy Spirit of my love are renewed or born again beare q a veile or covering before their hearts betwixt them and my face so will I also now in this last time be gracious unto all those who believe my
