in_o this_o translation_n which_o our_o church_n have_v accept_v and_o authorize_v and_o which_o agree_v with_o the_o first_o translation_n know_v to_o we_o by_o way_n of_o exposition_n that_o be_v the_o chalde_a paraphrase_n if_o foundation_n be_v destroy_v what_o can_v the_o righteous_a do_v the_o church_n of_o god_n ever_o delight_v herself_o in_o a_o holy_a officiousness_n in_o the_o

a_o protestation_n of_o david_n that_o though_o he_o be_v so_o vehement_o pursue_v by_o saul_n as_o that_o all_o that_o wish_v he_o well_o say_v to_o his_o soul_n fly_v as_o a_o bird_n to_o the_o

may_v privy_o shoot_v at_o the_o upright_o in_o heart_n as_o it_o be_v in_o the_o second_o verse_n though_o he_o take_v it_o almost_o as_o grant_v that_o foundation_n be_v destroy_v and_o then_o what_o can_v the_o righteous_a do_v as_o it_o be_v in_o the_o three_o verse_n which_o be_v our_o text_n yet_o in_o this_o distress_n he_o find_v what_o to_o do_v for_o as_o he_o begin_v in_o the_o first_o verse_n in_o thou_o lord_n put_v i_o my_o trust_n so_o after_o he_o have_v pass_v the_o enumeration_n of_o his_o danger_n in_o the_o second_o and_o three_o verse_n in_o the_o four_o he_o pursue_v it_o as_o he_o begin_v the_o lord_n be_v in_o his_o holy_a temple_n the_o lord_n throne_n be_v in_o heaven_n and_o in_o the_o five_o he_o fix_v it_o thus_o the_o lord_n tri_v the_o

be_v the_o argumentation_n of_o the_o righteous_a man_n in_o collateral_a thing_n in_o circumstantial_a thing_n in_o thing_n that_o be_v not_o fundamental_a a_o righteous_a man_n a_o constant_a man_n shall_v not_o be_v shake_v at_o all_o not_o at_o all_o scandalize_v that_o be_v true_a but_o then_o in_o a_o second_o place_n sometime_o it_o come_v to_o that_o that_o foundation_n be_v destroy_v and_o what_o can_v the_o righteous_a do_v then_o why_o even_o then_o this_o be_v a_o question_n not_o of_o desperation_n that_o nothing_o can_v be_v do_v but_o of_o consultation_n with_o god_n what_o shall_v be_v do_v i_o know_v say_v david_n i_o shall_v not_o be_v and_o thou_o know_v o_o god_n i_o have_v not_o be_v move_v with_o ordinary_a trial_n not_o though_o my_o friend_n have_v dis-avowed_n i_o and_o bid_v i_o fly_v to_o the_o mountain_n as_o a_o bird_n not_o though_o my_o enemy_n prepare_v and_o prepare_v arrow_n and_o shoot_v and_o shoot_v privy_o bestow_v their_o labour_n and_o their_o cost_n and_o their_o wit_n to_o ruin_v i_o yet_o these_o have_v not_o move_v i_o because_o i_o have_v fix_v myself_o upon_o certain_a foundation_n confidence_n and_o assurance_n of_o
