his_o power_n to_o make_v all_o creature_n even_o the_o dead_a and_o dumb_a in_o a_o manner_n to_o stand_v in_o awe_n of_o he_o and_o by_o all_o these_o terrible_a do_n of_o his_o teach_v his_o own_o

before_o lift_v up_o in_o prosperity_n and_o how_o easy_a a_o matter_n it_o be_v for_o god_n to_o make_v sudden_a change_n as_o to_o our_o outward_a estate_n so_o to_o our_o inward_a also_o and_o that_o whatsoever_o change_v pass_v upon_o god_n people_n he_o can_v easy_o and_o sudden_o change_v all_o their_o mourning_n into_o mirth_n and_o so_o give_v they_o matter_n of_o rejoice_v in_o his_o salvation_n in_o the_o one_o and_o thirty_o psalm_n david_n teach_v we_o from_o his_o own_o experience_n that_o there_o be_v a_o inexhaustible_a store_n of_o all_o good_a lay_v up_o with_o god_n for_o all_o that_o trust_v in_o he_o yea_o and_o that_o notwithstanding_o our_o infirmity_n and_o diffidence_n god_n of_o his_o mere_a faithfulness_n will_v deliver_v we_o in_o his_o appoint_a time_n there_o also_o we_o may_v learn_v that_o though_o god_n people_n be_v many_o time_n low_a in_o their_o own_o apprehension_n by_o reason_n of_o many_o and_o great_a danger_n yet_o so_o long_o as_o their_o eye_n and_o their_o heart_n be_v towards_o the_o lord_n as_o david_n be_v they_o may_v comfortable_o expect_v a_o good_a issue_n at_o last_o and_o thereupon_o be_v to_o encourage_v themselves_o and_o pluck_v up_o their_o spirit_n as_o they_o be_v exhort_v to_o do_v in_o the_o last_o verse_n of_o that_o psalm_n the_o 32d_o psalm_n teach_v we_o wherein_o lie_v true_a blessedness_n

and_o so_o be_v far_o from_o guile_n in_o our_o spirit_n as_o david_n be_v at_o last_o after_o much_o ado_n it_o teach_v we_o also_o in_o what_o way_n we_o must_v come_v to_o god_n and_o that_o be_v in_o a_o way_n of_o true_a humiliation_n and_o hearty_a confession_n of_o sin_n and_o that_o all_o such_o humble_a penitent_n have_v matter_n of_o rejoice_v when_o impenitent_a and_o harden_a rebel_n shall_v have_v sorrow_n enough_o how_o can_v we_o admire_v god_n gracious_a dispensation_n towards_o his_o israel_n better_a than_o by_o a_o affectionate_a sing_v the_o thirty_o three_o thirty_o forth_o and_o thirty_o seven_o psalm_n which_o set_v forth_o in_o most_o ample_a manner_n the_o goodness_n of_o god_n towards_o his_o own_o and_o his_o just_a indignation_n against_o all_o his_o and_o their_o enemy_n though_o for_o the_o present_a it_o be_v not_o easy_a for_o we_o to_o apprehend_v the_o righteousness_n of_o god_n in_o his_o deal_n with_o the_o one_o and_o the_o other_o and_o have_v not_o god_n people_n always_o occasion_n from_o god_n daily_a providence_n to_o sing_v such_o psalm_n as_o those_o that_o so_o they_o may_v confirm_v their_o heart_n in_o confidence_n on_o god_n and_o
