who_o the_o lord_n have_v redeem_v and_o deliver_v from_o the_o hand_n of_o the_o enemy_n this_o psalm_n do_v in_o the_o most_o lively_a and_o glorious_a colour_n paint_v forth_o and_o adorn_v the_o

the_o great_a revolution_n and_o variety_n of_o event_n in_o this_o world_n be_v from_o the_o hand_n of_o god_n that_o all_o humane_a affair_n and_o transaction_n be_v under_o his_o providential_a

to_o convince_v any_o considerate_a person_n that_o the_o world_n be_v not_o govern_v by_o fate_n or_o giddy_a chance_n but_o by_o infinite_a wisdom_n and_o infinite_a goodness_n that_o god_n

three_o to_o the_o seven_o verse_n we_o have_v a_o signal_n instance_n of_o a_o overrule_v omnipotent_a providence_n where_o we_o find_v the_o child_n of_o israel_n wander_v in_o the_o wilderness_n in_o a_o solitary_a way_n deprive_v of_o the_o necessary_a support_v and_o comfort_n of_o this_o life_n yet_o upon_o their_o devout_a address_n to_o heaven_n in_o prayer_n find_v present_a relief_n

thus_o from_o the_o ten_o to_o the_o fourteen_o verse_n we_o find_v how_o god_n be_v please_v to_o discipline_n and_o exercise_v other_o with_o providential_a affliction_n with_o bond_n and_o imprisonment_n because_o of_o their_o wickedness_n and_o impiety_n yet_o as_o soon_o as_o ever_o such_o sharp_a discipline_n such_o severe_a chastisement_n have_v produce_v its_o desire_a effect_n that_o be_v bring_v they_o to_o a_o state_n of_o meekness_n and_o humility_n repentance_n and_o reformation_n as_o soon_o as_o they_o thus_o endeavour_v to_o make_v this_o atonement_n god_n mercy_n then_o get_v the_o ascendant_n of_o his_o justice_n and_o he_o become_v propitious_a and_o favourable_a to_o they_o bring_v they_o out_o of_o darkness_n and_o the_o shadow_n of_o death_n and_o break_v their_o bond_n asunder_o thus_o from_o the_o twenty_o three_o to_o the_o thirty_o verse_n we_o read_v that_o such_o as_o go_v down_o to_o the_o sea_n in_o ship_n and_o do_v business_n in_o great_a

what_o do_v the_o lord_n require_v at_o the_o hand_n of_o such_o as_o have_v the_o character_n of_o divine_a providence_n so_o singular_o and_o eminent_o engrave_v upon_o they_o for_o who_o he_o
