question_n thus_o a_o pax_n sit_v impijs_fw-la whether_o the_o wicked_a have_v peace_n it_o be_v conclude_v in_o this_o text_n that_o they_o have_v no_o peace_n the_o medium_n concludendi_fw-la or_o proof_n of_o this_o be_v a_o argument_n à _fw-fr divino_fw-la testimonio_fw-la that_o be_v from_o the_o witness_n or_o testimony_n of_o god_n own_o mouth_n the_o lord_n have_v speak_v it_o therefore_o the_o wicked_a have_v no_o peace_n there_o be_v no_o peace_n say_v the_o lord_n unto_o the_o wicked_a you_o see_v then_o that_o this_o conclusion_n be_v negative_a the_o extreme_n whereof_o be_v two_o perpetual_a contrary_n and_o therefore_o can_v possible_o be_v affirm_v one_o of_o another_o but_o deny_v for_o as_o white_n can_v be_v affirm_v of_o blackness_n nor_o light_n of_o darkness_n no_o more_o can_v true_a peace_n of_o sin_n and_o wickedness_n the_o argument_n draw_v from_o the_o divine_a testimony_n be_v use_v here_o 〈◊〉_d 〈◊〉_d 〈◊〉_d 〈◊〉_d 〈◊〉_d that_o be_v to_o say_v by_o way_n of_o pre-ocupation_a or_o prevention_n and_o it_o argue_v the_o infidelity_n of_o the_o heart_n of_o man_n in_o this_o point_n and_o his_o gross_a and_o beastly_a error_n as_o if_o the_o prophet_n have_v thus_o say_v how_o soever_o the_o wicked_a and_o carnal_a man_n of_o this_o world_n because_o they_o live_v in_o prosperity_n and_o have_v of_o all_o thing_n in_o abundance_n suffer_v no_o outward_a affliction_n nor_o misery_n do_v conceit_n themselves_o to_o be_v seat_v in_o a_o kind_n of_o perfect_a peace_n and_o therefore_o can_v hardly_o be_v draw_v to_o entertain_v a_o other_o doctrine_n and_o to_o believe_v a_o contrary_a assertion_n yet_o the_o lord_n god_n of_o heaven_n and_o earth_n who_o be_v wisdom_n itself_o he_o know_v it_o and_o who_o be_v truth_n itself_o he_o have_v pronounce_v it_o that_o they_o have_v no_o peace_n and_o therefore_o how_o be-it_a they_o flatter_v themselves_o with_o outward_a show_n and_o shadow_n yet_o in_o truth_n they_o have_v no_o

but_o alas_o thou_o will_v not_o suffer_v i_o wicked_a man_n have_v no_o peace_n not_o because_o they_o be_v man_n for_o so_o the_o lord_n cherish_v they_o and_o favour_v they_o but_o because_o they_o be_v wicked_a man_n and_o this_o be_v a_o main_a reason_n that_o the_o spirit_n of_o god_n lay_v down_o in_o this_o text_n why_o there_o can_v be_v no_o peace_n unto_o the_o wicked_a there_o be_v nothing_o but_o sin_n that_o make_v a_o man_n unhappy_a for_o there_o be_v nothing_o that_o seperate_v man_n from_o his_o god_n but_o sin_n and_o if_o man_n because_o of_o sin_n be_v separate_v from_o his_o god_n the_o god_n and_o prince_n of_o peace_n how_o can_v there_o then_o be_v peace_n unto_o that_o man_n man_n in_o the_o day_n of_o his_o innocence_n have_v a_o twofould_a peace_n say_v
