So
let
all
thine
enemies
perish
,
O
Lord
:
But
let
them
that
love
him
be
as
the
Sunne
when
he
goeth
forth
in
his
might
.
THere
are
few
I
presume
that
heare
me
this
day
but
some
what
they
haue
heard
of
the
great
victories
which
it
hath
pleased
Almighty
God
lately
to
give
to
those
of
the
reformed
Churches
in
forraigne
parts
,
professing
our
religion
;
in
which
regard
that
we
might
in
some
sort
expresse
our
mindfulnesse
of
them
our
well-wishing
to
them
,
our
thankfulnesse
for
them
,
and
our
rejoycing
with
them
:
I
haue
made
choice
of
these
words
at
this
time
by
Gods
gracious
assistance
to
bee
opened
vnto
you
.
In
the
Chapter
going
before
we
read
of
a
wonderfull
great
defeate
by
Barak
the
sonne
of
Abinoam
,
and
Deborah
the
Prophetesse
(
who
at
that
time
judged
Israel
though
a
woman
)
given
to
the
forces
of
Iabin
King
of
Canaan
,
which
were
utterly
routed
,
pursued
&
put
to
the
sword
by
the
Israelites
not
so
much
as
a
man
left
alive
all
the
way
from
the
river
Kishon
even
to
Harosheth
of
the
Gentiles
,
being
sprinkled
with
bloud
and
bestrewed
with
dead
carkases
,
and
for
Sisera
the
Generall
of
the
Armie
under
Iabin
,
the
day
being
thus
lost
he
forsakes
his
chariot
and
flies
for
his
life
,
and
in
his
flight
at
the
motion
of
Iael
the
wife
of
Heber
the
Kenite
turnes
aside
into
her
tent
,
where
being
curteously
entertained
,
and
tyred
with
wearinesse
,
giving
himselfe
to
his
rest
,
he
fell
so
soundly
asleepe
that
Iael
taking
the
opportunity
stole
upon
him
,
and
with
a
hammer
in
her
hand
fastened
a
naile
in
his
temples
,
so
fully
home
that
hee
never
rose
againe
from
the
place
.
Hereupon
Deborah
and
Barak
,
and
by
their
example
all
the
people
take
up
a
song
of
triumph
,
a
sacred
and
solemne
hymne
,
to
the
Lord
of
Hosts
the
Author
of
the
victorie
,
which
takes
up
this
whole
Chapter
,
in
imitation
of
Moses
and
the
men
of
Israel
on
the
one
side
,
and
Miriam
the
sister
of
Moses
with
the
women
on
the
other
,
who
after
their
deliverance
from
the
cruell
oppression
of
the
Aegyptians
,
and
the
overwhelming
of
Pharaoh
and
his
horsmen
in
the
red
Sea
,
thus
sing
unto
the
Lord
(
which
it
should
seeme
was
the
burden
of
their
song
,
)
For
he
hath
triumphed
gloriously
,
the
horse
and
the
rider
hath
he
throwne
into
the
Sea
.
And
such
a
song
was
that
which
the
daughters
of
Israel
tooke
up
(
perchance
in
imitation
of
this
)
after
the
vanquishing
of
the
Philistines
;
they
goe
forth
to
meete
Saul
and
David
in
their
returne
from
that
slaughter
with
tabrets
and
instruments
of
musicke
,
singing
,
and
dancing
,
and
as
they
played
they
answered
one
another
and
said
,
Saul
hath
slain
his
thousands
and
David
his
Poean
,
Poeana
canamus
;
and
againe
,
dicite
Io
Poean
,
&
Io
bis
dicite
Poean
:
and
if
they
did
thus
to
their
heathenish
gods
which
indeede
were
no
gods
but
Idoles
,
how
much
more
should
wee
doe
the
like
to
the
true
and
everliving
God
.
This
Song
(
as
it
is
thought
)
was
composed
by
Deborah
,
which
I
am
the
rather
induced
to
beleeve
,
not
only
because
shee
was
a
woman
of
singular
gifts
and
graces
,
and
above
all
indued
with
a
propheticall
Spirit
,
because
shee
stirred
up
and
spurred
forward
Barak
,
assisting
and
encouraging
him
with
her
presence
and
counsel
in
the
whole
action
,
but
chiefely
because
in
the
12
ver:
shee
thus
rouzeth
up
her selfe
,
Awake
,
awake
Deborah
;
awake
,
awake
,
utter
a
song
:
but
by
whom-soever
it
is
composed
it
is
certainly
a
most
excellent
divine
hymne
,
and
of
a
marvellous
loftie
high
straine
,
as
will
easily
appeare
to
any
man
that
reads
it
with
attention
and
judgement
.
The
words
of
my
Text
they
are
the
very
upshot
and
close
of
the
song
,
and
in
that
respect
no
doubt
the
more
considerable
.
They
containe
in
them
a
prayer
,
a
double
prayer
,
spreading
it selfe
into
two
branches
,
whereof
the
one
is
an
Imprecation
against
Gods
enemies
,
so
let
all
thine
enemies
perish
O
Lord
;
the
other
a
Petition
,
but
let
them
that
love
him
be
as
the
sunne
when
he
goeth
forth
in
his
might
;
the
Imprecation
is
for
the
perishing
of
Gods
enemies
;
the
Petition
for
the
flourishing
of
his
friends
,
because
first
his
enemies
must
perish
before
his
friends
can
flourish
,
as
darknesse
must
first
be
dispelled
before
light
come
in
place
,
and
sicknesse
expelled
before
health
be
recovered
:
these
two
being
like
the
two
buckets
of
a
well
,
or
the
two
scales
of
a
ballance
,
the
falling
of
the
one
is
the
rising
of
the
other
,
as
the
house
of
David
grew
stronger
by
the
weakning
of
Sauls
house
,
and
Rome
erected
her
trophies
in
the
ruines
of
Alba.
Now
the
Imprecation
being
thus
delivered
by
a
Prophetesse
,
containes
a
Prediction
,
as
the
Petition
doth
likewise
a
position
,
and
in
some
translations
is
so
rendred
.
In
the
Imprecation
we
are
first
to
consider
,
whether
or
no
it
be
lawfull
and
how
farre
to
pray
against
others
;
Secondly
,
what
these
enemies
of
God
are
;
Thirdly
,
by
whose
hand
they
are
to
fall
and
to
perish
;
and
lastly
,
the
manner
of
their
perishing
out
of
this
word
,
So
:
so
let
all
thine
enemies
perish
O
Lord
.
That
which
gives
occasion
to
this
doubt
in
the
Saviour
,
Love
your
enemies
,
blesse
them
that
curse
you
,
doe
good
to
them
that
hate
you
,
and
pray
for
them
which
despitefully
use
you
and
persecute
you
.
Wee
are
to
know
then
,
that
we
must
pray
for
our
enemies
,
but
against
Gods
enemies
;
this
was
the
practice
of
the
Prophet
David
,
O
my
God
make
them
like
a
wheele
as
the
stubble
before
the
wind
,
as
the
fire
burneth
a
wood
,
and
as
the
flame
setteth
the
mountaines
on
fire
,
so
persecute
them
with
thy
tempest
,
and
make
them
afraide
with
thy
storme
.
It
was
the
usual
forme
of
the
Priests
at
the
removing
of
the
Arke
,
specially
in
time
of
warre
,
and
wee

have
it
taken
up
by
the
Psalmist
,
Let
God
arise
and
let
his
enemies
be
scattered
,
let
them
also
that
hate
him
flee
before
him
,
let
his
,
not
our
enemies
be
scattered
,
or
if
they
bee
both
ours
and
his
,
wee
are
to
pray
for
them
as
they
are
ours
,
but
against
them
as
they
are
his
.
We
may
lawfully
pray
against
their
designes
though
not
against
their
persons
,
as
David
prayed
Achitophel
,
O
Lord
,
I
pray
thee
turne
the
counsell
of
Achitophel
into
foolishnesse
;
or
we
may
pray
against
their
persons
indefinitely
,
though
not
particularly
,
as
thus
let
them
be
confounded
(
what
ere
they
be
)
and
turned
backe
that
hate
Sion
,
let
them
bee
as
the
grasse
upon
the
house
tops
,
which
withereth
before
it
groweth
up
,
wherewith
the
mower
filleth
not
his
hand
,
nor
he
that
bindeth
sheaves
his
bosome
;
or
lastly
,
we
may
pray
against
their
persons
in
particular
,
conditionally
,
though
not
absolutely
;
first
,
we
are
to
pray
for
their
conversion
,
and
then
if
maliciously
and
wilfully
they
persist
in
their
obstinacy
,
in
the
second
place
for
their
confusion
;
fill
their
faces
with
shame
that
they
they
may
seeke
thy
name
,
O
Lord
,
that
is
,
that
they
may
be
converted
unto
thee
;
but
in
case
they
will
not
be
converted
but
stand
out
in
their
rebellion
,
and
go
on
still
with
an
hard
heart
,
ahigh
hand
,
a
stiffe
necke
and
a
brazen
forehead
,
then
it
followes
,
Let
them
be
confounded
and
troubled
for
ever
,
yea
let
them
boe
put
to
shame
and
perish
;
if
by
shame
they
will
not
bee
wrought
to
conversion
,
from
shame
let
them
be
brought
to
confusion
;
but
then
we
must
here
remember
,
that
we
doe
not
so
much
rejoyce
because
they
perish
,
as
because
by
their
perishing
the
Church
of
God
is
delivered
,
and
the
glory
of
God
advanced
in
the
manifestation
of
his
justice
:
and
for
that
reason
the
same
Prophet
That
men
may
know
that
thou
whose
name
is
only
Iehovah
,
art
the
most
high
over
all
the
earth
:
that
thou
art
the
supreame
Iudge
of
the
world
and
sittest
in
the
throne
that
judgeth
right
;
to
which
very
purpose
is
that
in
another
Psalme
,
The
righteous
shall
rejoyce
when
he
seeth
the
vengeance
,
hee
shall
wash
or
bathe
his
feete
in
the
bloud
of
the
wicked
,
so
that
a
man
shall
say
,
verily
there
is
a
reward
for
the
righteous
,
verily
he
is
a
God
that
judgeth
in
the
earth
;
therefore
shall
the
righteous
rejoyce
in
the
vengeance
and
bloud
of
the
wicked
,
not
because
their
bloud
is
shed
,
but
because
by
the
shedding
of
their
bloud
,
men
are
brought
to
know
and
acknowledge
that
he
is
the
God
that
judgeth
the
earth
with
righteous
judgement
;
for
shall
not
the
Iudge
of
all
the
earth
doe
Alleluja
,
salvation
,
and
glory
,
and
honour
,
and
power
unto
the
Lord
our
God
,
for
true
and
righteous
are
his
judgements
,
for
hee
hath
judged
the
great
whore
which
did
corrupt
the
earth
with
her
fornication
,
and
hath
avenged
the
bloud
of
his
servants
at
her
hand
:
and
againe
they
said
Alleluja
.
This
rubbe
being
thus
remooved
,
I
now
come
to
the
second
part
of
this
first
branch
,
which
is
what
these
enemies
of
God
are
.
The
enemies
of
God
either
acknowledge
no
God
,
as
professed
Atheists
,
or
acknowledge
a
God
but
not
the
true
God
,
as
Idolaters
,
or
the
true
God
but
goe
not
to
him
the
true
way
,
that
is
,
by
IESVS
CHRIST
,
as
Mahometans
and
Iewes
;
or
goe
to
him
by
IESVS
CHRIST
,
but
not
by
him
alone
,
as
Romanists
;
or
goe
by
him
alone
,
but
(
withall
)
fancie
to
themselves
,
and
obstinately
maintaine
some
erroneous
opinion
in
fundamentall
points
,
as
Hereticks
;
or
are
sound
enough
in
fundamentall
points
,
but
out
of
an
affectation
of
singularity
separate
themselves
from
the
congregation
,
as
schismaticks
;
or
lastly
,
joyne
themselves
to
the
congregation
,
but
either
with
false
hearts
as
hypocrites
,
or
foule
hands
as
prophane
persons
,
having
both
of
them
a
forme
of
godlinesse
,
but
denying
the
power
thereof
:
these
may
all
of
them
in
some
sense
,
though
in
a
diverse
manner
,
&
in
a
different
degree
,
be
termed
the
enemies
of
God
.
And
againe
,
to
speake
generally
,
they
are
all
Gods
enemies
who
blaspheme
Gods
name
,
who
with
hold
Gods
right
,
who
prophane
Gods
day
,
who
dishonour
Gods
house
,
who
abuse
Gods
word
,
whou
nreverently
or
unworthi
ly
receive
Gods
Sacraments
,
who
despise
Gods
ordinances
,
who
neglect
Gods
commandements
,
who
disgrace
or
disesteeme
Gods
ambassadors
.
But
by
the
enemies
of
God
here
in
this
place
undoubtedly
are
to
bee
understood
the
enemies
of
his
Church
,
that
is
,
such
as
persecute
it
,
or
for
professions
sake
oppose
themselves
against
it
:
such
an
indissoluble
linke
and
reciprocall
connexion
there
is
betwixt
God
and
his
Church
,
that
it
cannot
be
but
that
the
enemies
of
the
one
should
be
the
enemies
of
the
other
.
The
reproches
of
them
that
reproched
thee
are
falne
upon
me
,
saith
the
Psalmist
as
a
member
of
the
Church
;
and
againe
,
Doe
I
not
hate
them
O
Lord
that
hate
thee
?
and
am
I
not
grieved
with
those
that
rise
up
against
thee
?
I
hate
them
,
with
a
perfect
hatred
,
I
count
them
mine
enemies
.
And
as
Gods
enemies
are
the
Churches
enemies
,
so
the
enemies
of
the
Church
,
are
Gods
enemies
,
and
therfore
they
are
Gods
enemies
because
they
are
the
Churches
enemies
;
Loe
thine
enemies
make
a
tumult
,
and
they
that
hate
thee
have
lift
up
the
head
:
and
why
were
they
thine
enemies
?
the
reason
is
there
immediately
added
,
They
have
taken
crafty
counsell
against
thy
people
,
and
consulted
against
thy
hidden
ones
;
because
they
tooke
counsell
against
his
people
,
and
consulted
against
his
Church
,
therfore
were
they
his
enemies
:
Remember
Lord
(
saith
the
same
Prophet
)
the
reproch
of
thy
servants
,
wherewith
thine
enemies
have
reproched
them
,
therefore
they
were
His
enemies
because
they
reproched
his
servants
,
that
is
,
his
Church
;
and
in
this
very
Chapter
,
Curse
ye
Meroz
(
saith
the
Angell
of
the
Lord
)
curse
bitterly
the
inhabitants
thereof
,
because
they
came
not
up
to
the
helpe
of
the
Lord
against
the
mightie
:
wherby
he
intitles
the
Churches
quarrells
to
the
Lord
.
But
above
all
we
have
to
this
purpose
in
the
ninth
of
the
Acts
a
singular
testimony
from
the
mouth
of
the
Lord
himselfe
,
as
it
were
an
oracle
speaking
to
us
from
heaven
,
where
wee
read
that
when
Saul
(
who
afterward
was
called
Paul
)
was
breathing
out
threatnings
and
slaughter
against
the
Disciples
of
the
Lord
(
that
is
,
the
Church
)
and
to
that
end
was
upon
his
journey
to
Damascus
,
being
amazed
with
an
exceeding
bright
light
,
which
shone
round
about
him
,
he
heard
a
voice
saying
unto
him
,
Saul
,
Saul
,
why
persecutest
thou
me
?
and
he
said
,
Who
art
thou
Lord
?
and
the
Lord
said
,
I
am
Iesus
whom
thou
persecutest
:
it
is
hard
for
thee
to
kicke
against
the
pricks
;
Iesus
whom
thou
persecutest
?
why
Iesus
was
then
in
heaven
and
Saul
on
earth
;
Saul
clothed
with
misery
and
mortality
here
below
and
Iesus
above
sitting
at
the
right
hand
of
God
in
glory
and
majesty
farre
enough
out
of
Sauls
reach
,
how
then
could
Saul
persecute
Iesus
?
surely
none
otherwise
but
because
he
persecuted
the
members
of
his
Church
,
which
Iesus
takes
to
heart
as
if
himselfe
had
beene
persecuted
in
his
owne
person
.
The
reason
here
of
is
apparent
,
the
Church
is
the
spouse
,
and
he
the
husband
of
this
spouse
,
the
Church
the
body
and
he
the
head
of
this
body
,
the
Church
the
family
and
he
the
father
of
this
family
,
the
Church
the
armie
and
he
the
Generall
of
this
armie
,
the
Church
the
kingdome
and
he
the
Soveraigne
of
this
kingdome
;
and
if
the
spouse
suffer
can
the
husband
be
insensible
of
it
?
if
the
body
suffer
can
the
head
be
insensible
of
it
?
if
the
family
suffer
can
the
father
of
the
family
be
insensible
of
it
?
if
the
armie
suffer
can
the
generall
be
insensible
of
it
?
if
the
kingdome
suffer
can
the
soveraigne
be
insensible
of
it
?
nay
a
far
neereunion
there
is
betwixt
Christ
and
his
Church
than
betwixt
the
husband
and
the
spouse
,
for
this
cause
shall
a
man
leave
father
and
mother
and
shall
cleave
to
his
wife
and
they
two
shall
be
one
flesh
:
one
flesh
they
are
,
but
the
wife
liues
not
by
the
soule
of
the
husband
,
as
the
Church
doth
by
the
spirit
of
Christ
the
wife
feeds
not
upon
the
flesh
of
the
husband
as
the
Church
doth
upon
the
flesh
of
Christ
,
the
wife
is
not
bought
with
the
bloud
of
the
husband
as
the
Church
is
redeemed
by
the
bloud
of
Christ
,
and
by
this
meanes
becomes
neerer
unto
him
than
his
owne
right
hand
,
dearer
than
the
apple
of
his
eye
.
Here
is
our
comfort
then
,
there
being
so
many
obligatory
relations
and
mutuall
ingagements
betweene
God
and
his
Church
,
the
enemies
of
the
Church
are
therby
made
his
enemies
,
and
if
God
be
on
our
side
who
shall
be
against
us
?
To
fight
against
God
is
as
if
a
man
should
spit
against
the
winde
which
carries
it
backe
in
his
owne
face
;
the
furie
of
Gods
enemies
against
his
Church
is
but
as
the
ratling
of
a
violent
haile-storm
upon
the
tiles
,
which
makes
a
great
noise
for
the
time
as
if
it
would
beate
down
the
house
,
but
is
cast
off
as
soone
as
it
comes
on
and
then
lies
on
the
ground
,
and
within
a
while
melts
away
;
or
as
the
proud
surges
of
the
sea
which
come
swelling
and
roaring
towards
the
rocke
,
as
if
they
would
rend
it
in
peeces
and
carrie
all
before
them
,
but
the
issue
is
that
they
dash
themselves
against
the
rock
and
so
turne
into
froth
,
but
the
rock
being
onely
washed
remaines
where
it
was
;
so
is
it
with
the
Church
which
is
built
upon
the
rock
,
the
windes
may
blow
and
the
flouds
arise
,
and
the
raine
beate
upon
it
,
but
it
falls
not
,
because
t
is
,
built
upon
a
rocke
,
and
the
gates
of
hell
shall
never
be
able
to
prevaile
against
it
.
The
third
considerable
point
in
this
Imprecation
is
the
hand
by
whose
power
the
enemies
of
God
shall
perish
,
that
is
,
by
the
hand
and
power
of
him
whose
enemies
they
are
,
and
therefore
doth
Deborah
(
as
we
see
)
by
an
apostrophe
turne
her
to
the
Lord
and
directs
her
speech
to
him
,
So
let
,
or
so
shall
all
thine
enemies
perish
O
Lord
,
that
is
,
they
shall
thus
perish
by
thy
hand
;
and
hence
it
is
that
in
so
many
passages
shee
ascribes
the
victorie
wholy
to
the
Lord
;
Deborah
said
unto
Barak
,
Vp
,
for
this
day
wherein
the
Lord
hath
delivered
Sisera
into
thine
hand
:
is
not
the
Lord
gone
out
before
thee
?
and
in
the
next
verse
immediately
following
,
The
Lord
discomfited
Sisera
and
all
his
charriots
,
and
all
his
host
,
with
the
edge
of
the
sword
before
Barak
:
it
is
not
said
,
that
Barak
discomfited
them
before
the
Lord
,
but
the
Lord
before
Barak
:
and
againe
in
the
23.
of
the
same
Chapter
,
So
God
subdued
on
that
day
Iabin
the
King
of
Canaan
before
the
children
of
Israel
.
Though
Barak
signifie
lightning
,
yet
was
hee
but
as
a
thunder-bolt
in
the
hand
of
God
against
Sisera
,
and
though
Deborah
signifie
a
Be
,
yet
no
doubt
but
her
diligence
and
providence
in
assisting
Barak
was
overruled
and
guided
by
the
providence
of
God
;
and
so
much
her selfe
upon
the
matter
confesseth
in
this
very
song
:
they
fought
from
heaven
,
the
starres
in
their
courses
or
paths
fought
against
Sisera
:
they
fought
from
Antiq.

earth
?
which
Iosephus
thut
expresseth
;
There
suddenly
fell
a
storme
.
(
saith
hee
)
of
raine
mixed
with
haile
,
which
the
wind
drove
against
the
faces
of
the
Canaonites
,
and
tooke
away
their
sight
,
making
those
that
carried
darts
,
and
such
as
served
with
the
sling
unprofitable
in
their
service
,
the
Targetiers
likewise
having
their
hands
benummed
with
cold
could
scarcely
weild
their
swords
,
but
the
tempest
beating
on
the
backes
of
the
Israelites
,
not
onely
wrought
them
lesse
offence
,
but
made
them
also
more
forward
,
being
whetted
thereunto
by
the
manifest
signe
of
Gods
favour
and
presence
,
whereupon
disarraying
and
breaking
through
their
enemies
battel
,
they
made
a
great
slaughter
of
them
,
so
as
a
part
of
them
fell
by
the
weapons
of
the
Israelites
,
the
rest
were
overrunne
by
their
owne
horsemen
and
chariots
:
Hitherto
Iosephus
:
much
like
wherunto
is
that
storie
which
Eusebius
(
out
of
Apollinarius
and
Tertullian
)
reports
that
the
armie
of
Marcus
Aurelius
warring
upon
the
Marcomannians
,
being
in
sore
distresse
for
want
of
water
,
and
having
at
that
time
in
his
pay
a
legion
of
Christians
which
served
under
him
,
they
all
with
one
consent
(
the
signe
being
given
)
fell
upon
their
knees
,
and
earnestly
praied
God
for
reliefe
,
who
instantly
thereupon
sent
such
a
storme
of
thunder
and
lightning
and
raine
and
haile
,
as
it
amazed
their
enemies
,
driving
full
in
their
faces
,
but
refreshed
them
to
the
utter
discomfiture
of
the
one
,
and
victorious
triumph
of
the
other
;
and
thus
the
Emperour
himselfe
(
though
by
religion
a
Pagan
)
by
his
letters
signified
to
the
Senate
,
and
thereupon
gave
not
onely
that
legion
the
name
of
fulminatrix
,
but
strait
charge
that
none
should
be
put
to
death
or
punished
for
being
Christians
.
All
which
considered
great
reason
had
Gideon
in
the
crie
of
his
souldiers
to
preferre
the
sword
of
the
Lord
before
his
owne
,
as
t
is
in
the
seventh
Chapter
of
this
booke
;
The
sword
of
the
Lord
and
of
Gideon
;
not
the
sword
of
Gideon
without
the
sword
of
the
Lord
,
nor
the
sword
of
Gideon
in
the
first
place
,
and
then
the
sword
of
the
Lord
;
but
first
,
the
sword
of
the
Lord
,
and
then
the
sword
of
Gideon
;
the
sword
of
the
Lord
to
direct
,
and
the
sword
of
Gideon
to
execute
;
the
sword
of
the
Lord
as
the
primarie
esficient
,
and
the
sword
of
Gideon
as
the
subordinate
instrument
,
the
sword
of
the
Lord
without
the
sword
of
Gideon
in
the
ordinary
course
,
will
doe
nothing
,
and
the
sword
of
Gideon
without
the
sword
of
the
LORD
at
all
can
doe
nothing
.

that

enter

to

it
selfe
with

and
make
it selfe
drunke
with

to

souldier
,
who
strengthneth
his

To

his

we
will
remember
by
flying
to
him
for

and
his
name
wee
will
remember
by
returning
to
him
with
praise
and
thanksgiving
▪
Not

Lord

not
unto

,
but
untothy
name
give
the
praise
;
and
herein
we
are
sure
we
cannot
erre
,
except
Moses
erred
,
who
after
his
victorie
obtained
upon
the
Amalekites
built
an
altar
and
called
the
name
of
it
Iehovah
Nisi
;
the
Lord
my
banner
;
except
the
Prophet
David
erred
I
will
sing
a
new
song
unto
thee
O
God
;
upon
a
Psalterie
and
an
instrument
often
strings
will
I
sing
praises
unto
thee
.
It
is
he
,
it
is
he
that
giveth
victory
unto
Kings
and
delivereth
David
his
servant
from
the
perill
of
the
sword
,
or
from
the
hurtfull
sword
;
lastly
,
except
Deborah
the
Prophetesse
erred
,
I
am
sure
we
cannot
erre
in
this
point
,
who
in
the
very
entrance
of
her
song
dedicates
it
to
the
Lord
;
Praise
ye
the
Lord
for
the
avenging
of
Israel
,
heare
O
Yee
Kings
,
and
give

The
fourth
and
last
observation
in
this
first
branch
is
,
the
manner
of
perishing
of
Gods
enemies
,
out
of
the
word
,
So
,
So
let
all
thine
enemies
perish
O
Lord
.
So
,
as
did
Sisera
with
his
army
;
suddenly
,
and
when
they
least
expect
it
,
as
did
Sisera
;
shamefully
,
and
with
dishonour
,
as
did
Sisera
;
utterly
,
and
without
recovery
,
as
did
Sisera
;
So
let
all
thine
enemies
perish
O
Lord
.
First
then
,
let
them
perish
suddenly
and
when
they
least
expect
,
as
did
Sisera
.
Sisera
was
now
in
the
height
of
his
pride
and
confidence
,
in
the
very
top
of
his
jollity
and
bravery
;
his
master
had
now
by
the
space
of
twenty
yeeres
mightily
oppressed
and
harrowed
the
children
of
Israel
,
whereby
they
became
both
unarm'd
and
dishartened
,
So
,
even
so
let
all
thine
enemies
perish
O
Lord
.
Nay
,
so
they
shal
perish
,
when
the
wicked
spring
as
the
grasse
,
and
when
all
the
workers
of
iniquity
did
flourish
,
then
it
is
that
they
shall
be
destroied
for
ever
;
then
,
even

shall
say
peace
and
safety
,
then
Sudden
destruction
shall
come
upon
them
unawares
,
as
travell
upon
a
woman
with
childe
,
and
they
shall
not
escape
that
which
the
Psalmist
speakes
of
the
wicked
in
generall
,
may
truly
be
verifyed
in
particular
,
of
those
enemies
of
the
Lord
,
who
lately
perished
,
I
have
seen
the
wicked
in
great
power
,
and
spreading
himselfe
like
a
greene
Laurell
:
yet
(
for
all
his
great
power
and
pompe
)
he
passed
away
,
and
loe
he
was
not
;
yea
I
sought
him
but
hee
could
not
be
found
,
hee
was
suddenly
gone
in
the
turn
of
an
hand
:
as
it
was
fore
told
of
Iulian
,
Nubecula
est
&
cito
transibit
,
he
is
but
a
thin
cloud
and
will
quickly
vanish
,
and
so
indeed
it
fell
out
.
Such
a
flash
was
that
Spanish
bravado
in
the
yeere
1588
,
predictions
had
every
where
run
and
were
verily
beleeved
,
that
some
great
conversions
of
kingdomes
would
fall
out
in
that
yeare
,
and
the
Spaniards
for
the
invasion
of
this
kingdome
covered
the
seas
with
such
a
navie
,
as
for
ships
,
men
,
munition
and
provision
in
all
kindes
it
was
(
as
our
Annalist
speakes
)
omnium
quas
Oceanus
unquam
vidit
instructissima
,
the
best
furnished
and
most
accomplished
of
any
that
the
Ocean
ever
saw
,
it
was
more
like
a
moving
forrest
than
a
fleet
,
three
whole
yeares
in
preparing
,
and
cost
the
King
of
Spaine
by
their
owne
report
thirtie
thousand
ducats
every
day
;
inso
much
as
themselvesin
the
pride
of
their
heart
,
and
assurance
of
victory
called
it
the
invincible
Armado
,
and
Bernardinus
,
Mendoza
,
then
ambassador
in
France
,
caused
bookes
to
bee
published
of
their
conquest
of
England
;
but
notwithstanding
all
their
vaine
braggs
and
confidence
,
they
passed
away
and
were
not
,
we
sought
them
but
they
could
not
be
found
.
Quam
benè
te
ambitio
mersit
vanissima
ventus
?
Et
tumidos
tumidae
vos
superastis
aquae
?
Iustly
the
wind
windy
ambition
drownd
,
And
swelling
waves
did
swelling
harts
confound
.
In
memory
of
which
sudden
discomfiture
money
was
coyned
with
this
inscription
,
stamped
on
the
one
side
,
Venit
,
Vidit
,
Fugit
,
and
on
the
other
,
Dux
femina
facti
;
So
let
all
thine
enemies
perish
O
Lord
.
Let
them
also
perish
So
,
that
is
,
shamefully
and
with
dishonour
,
as
Sisera
did
.
Hee
was
for
his
person
and
qualities
,
a
Captaine
of
great
fame
and
long
experience
,
trained
up
in
the
wars
and
militarie
affaires
from
his
very
childhood
:
whereas
Barak
on
the
other
side
was
but
a
raw
commander
,
of
little
experience
and
lesse
courage
as
it
should
seem
by
his
answere
to
Deborah
,
that
he
would
not
march
into
the
field
nor
incounter
Sisera
without
her
,
and
besides
,
that
his
souldiers
were
taken
up
in
haste
,
undisciplind
,
unexercised
and
unfurnished
,
their
spirits
had
beene
broken
by
long
servitude
under
the
Canaanites
,
and
their
number
very
small
,
but
tenne
thousand
men
in
the
whole
,
scarce
matchable
with
Sisera
▪
s
horsemen
;
yet
by
this
handfull
of
men
was
Sisera
▪
s
huge
hoste
cut
in
peeces
,
and
himselfe
flying
shamefully
out
of
the
battell
,
as
shamefully
by
the
hand
of
a
woman
,
as
did
Holophernes
by
the
hand
of
Iudith
,
and
Abimelech
should
have
done
having
his
scull
broken
by
a
peece
of
a
milstone
throwne
downe
from
a
tower
from
the
hand
of
a
woman
,
had
not
he
to
prevent
the
shame
commanded
his
armour-bearer
to
thrust
him
through
with
his
sword
,
as
we
may
read
in
the
ninth
Chap.
of
this
very
booke
.
Thus
Sisera
(
as
Thus
perished
Herod
a
grievous
persecutour
of
the
Church
too
,
who
sitting
in
Majestie
upon
his
throne
of
estate
,
and
glistering
in
his
royall
apparell
as
an
Angell
,
making
an
eloquent
oration
unto
the
people
,
so
that
they
gave
a
shout
crying
out
and
saying
,
It
is
the
voice
of
God
,
and
not
of
man
;
but
immediately
the
Angel
of
the
Lord
smote
him
,
and
he
was
eaten
up
of
wormes
,
and
gave
up
the
ghost
,
and
so
perished
both
suddenly
and
shamefully
.
And
thus
Goliah
who
was
of
a
mighty
stature
,
wherunto
And
so
let
all
thine
enemies
perish
O
Lord
.
Lastly
,
let
them
perish
So
,
that
is
,
utterly
,
without
all
hope
of
recovery
,
as
Sisera
did
;
not
so
much
as
a
man
left
to
carry
tydings
of
the
successe
to
Iabin
King
of
Canaan
;
whose
forces
they
were
:
nay
more
than
so
,
Iosephus
where
we
reade
that
the
hand
of
the
Children
of
Israel
prospered
and
prevailed
against
Iabin
the
King
of
Canaan
untill
they
had
destroyed
him
:
and
so
much
doth
the
Psalmist
intimate
Doe
unto
them
(
saith
he
,
praying
against
the
professed
enemies
of
God
and
his
Church
)
as
unto
the
Midianites
,
as
to
Sisera
,
as
to
Iabin
at
the
brooke
of
Kison
which
perished
at
Endor
,
they
became
as
the
dung
of
the
earth
:
And
so
let
all
thine
enemies
perish
O
Lord
.
Yea
,
so
sha●
al
thine
enemies
perish
O
Lord
(
this
imprecation
being
likewise
a
prediction
)
thou
shalt
break
them
with
a
rod
of
iron
,
thou
shalt
dash
them
in
peeces
like
a
potters
vessell
;
thou
shalt
so
dash
them
as
they
shall
be
broken
to
shivers
;
thou
shalt
so
breake
them
to
shivers
,
as
there
shall
not
bee
left
so
much
as
a
sheard
to
take
fire
withall
from
the
hearth
,
or
water
out
of
the
pit
:
from
hence
it
is
that
their
perishing
is
compared
to
the
vanishing
of
smoake
,
which
mounts
and
dilates
it selfe
for
a
time
,
but
instantly
is
so
cleane
gone
as
no
man
knowes
what
is
become
of
it
;
and
to
the
burning
of
stubble
which
in
a
moment
is
turned
into
ashes
:
The
hoùse
of
Iacob
shall
be
a
fire
,
and
the
house
of
Ioseph
a
flame
,
and
the
house
of
Esau
for
stubble
,
and
they
shall
kindle
in
them
and
devoure
them
,
and
there
shall
not
be
any
remaining
of
the
house
of
Esau
for
the
Lord
hath
spoken
it
.
Such
a
promise
we
have
of
the
utter
perishing
of
the
whore
of
Babylon
.
The
tenne
hornes
which
thou
sawest
upon
the
beasts
,
these
shall
hate
the
whore
,
and
shall
make
her
desolate
and
naked
,
and
hsall
eate
her
flesh
,
and
burne
her
with
fire
:
and
in
the
very
next
Chapter
of
the
totall
and
finall
destruction
of
the
City
Babylon
(
by
which
Rome
is
meant
,
and
that
even
by
the
testimonies
of
the
Iesuits
themselves
Vega
and
Ribera
)
And
a
mighty
Angell
took
up
a
great
milstone
and
cast
it
into
the
Sea
,
saying
:
Thus
with
violence
shall
that
great
City
Babylon
be
throwen
downe
and
shall
bee
found
no
more
at
all
;
shall
be
found
no
more
,
there
is
her
finall
;
no
more
at
all
,
there
is
her
totall
destruction
.
And
s
,
oeven
so
,
let
all
thine
enemies
perish
O
Lord
;
suddenly
,
shamefully
,
irrecoverably
.
And
so
I
passe
from
the
malediction
to
the
benedi
ction
,
from
mount
Ebal
,
the
mountain
of
cursing
,
to
mount
Gerazin
the
mountaine
of
blessing
,
from
the
imprecation
against
Gods
enemies
,
to
the
deprecation
for
his
friends
.
But
let
them
that
love
him
be
as
the
Sun
when
hee
goeth
forth
in
his
might
:
upon
which
I
shall
insist
the
lesse
,
because
I
have
already
dwelt
so
long
upon
the
former
.
In
the
handling
therof
I
will
first
treat
of
that
kinde
of
divine
love
which
is
here
to
be
understood
,
and
of
the
severall
degreestherof
;
secondly
of
the
semblance
of
such
as
are
therwith
inflamed
to
the
sun
;
thirdly
,
of
their
resemblance
to
the
sun
when
he
goeth
forth
in
his
might
.
Love
is
a
passion
of
the
mind
,
or
that
point
of
the
soule
by
which
it
longeth
to
bee
united
to
the
thing
it
loves
;
Amor
meus
pondus
meum
,
eo
feror
quocunque
feror
saith
Saint
Augustine
,
my
love
is
to
me
my
weight
,
by
it
am
I
carried
,
whithersoever
I
am
carried
:
so
that
looke
what
wings
are
to
a
bird
,
sayles
to
a
ship
,
legs
to
a
man
,
wheeles
to
a
cart
,
and
weight
to
heavy
bodies
,
to
the
drawing
of
them
downe
to
the
center
from
whence
they
came
;
the
same
is
love
to
the
soule
for
the
uniting
of
it
to
the
object
it
affects
;
Anima
est
non
tam
ubi
animat
quam
ubi
amat
,
the
soule
being
not
so
much
where
it
lives
as
where
it
loves
.
Againe
,
love
is
as
it
were
prima
mensura
,
the
principall
and
primarie
measure
of
al
the
other
passions
of
the
soule
;
as
our
love
is
,
so
is
our
hatred
,
our
hope
,
our
joy
,
our
feare
,
our
griefe
;
proportionable
to
the
measure
of
our
love
,
to
the
thing
we
affect
is
our
hatred
to
that
which
opposeth
against
it
,
our
hope
of
attaining
it
if
we
have
it
not
,
our
joy
in
possessing
it
if
we
have
it
,
our
feare
of
losing
it
even
when
wee
possesse
it
,
and
lastly
,
our
griefe
for
the
losse
when
we
are
deprived
of
it
.
Now
for
the
generall
kindes
of
love
;
it
is
either
unlawfull
as
immoderate
,
selfe
love
,
irregular
carnall
love
,
inordinate
worldly
love
;
or
lawfull
,
and
that
either
naturall
,
betweene
those
of
the
same
bloud
,
or
morall
,
between
those
of
the
same
vertuous
qualities
,
or
civill
betweene
those
of
the
same
Citty
and
Corporation
,
or
Spirituall
,
between
those
of
the
same
mysticall
body
of
IESVS
CHRIST
;
and
yet
a
more
transcendent
than
all
these
is
Divine
love
,
which
first
reflects
upon
God
,
and
then
from
God
and
for
Gods
sake
upon
other
things
and
persons
:
Qui
aliquid
amat
praeter
Deum
&
non
propter
Deum
,
non
amat
Deum
;
hee
that
loves
any
thing
or
person
beside
GOD
,
and
not
in
reference
to
God
,
loves
not
God
.
God
then
we
are
all
to
love
,
because
he
is
God
,
most
beautifull
and
glorious
,
most
wise
,
most
powerfull
,
most
holy
,
most
just
,
most
true
in
himselfe
;
we
are
likewise
to
love
him
,
because
he
is
Good
to
all
his
creatures
in
generall
,
and
to
us
in
particular
;
and
for
Gods
sake
we
are
to
love
those
things
which
belong
unto
him
,
but
specially
his
Church
,
than
which
nothing
in
this
world
is
to
him
more
pretious
,
or
more
properly
his
;
and
this
love
doe
I
take
to
be
understood
here
in
this
place
,
let
those
that
love
him
be
as
the
sun
;
for
as
by
Gods
enemies
in
the
former
part
of
the
verse
are
to
bee
understood
the
enemies
of
his
Church
,
so
by
his
friends
in
this
latter
part
are
undoubtedly
to
be
understood
the
friends
of
his
Church
,
and
of
that
Gospell
and
truth
which
by
that
Church
is
professed
.
Of
this
love
there
are
different
degrees
;
whereof
the
first
is
to
wish
well
unto
it
,
and
to
pray
for
it
,
that
GOD
would
be
pleased
to
raise
up
Kings
and
Queens
to
be
nursing
fathers
and
nursing
mothers
unto
it
,
that
he
would
stirre
up
the
Princes
of
the
earth
to
be
a
protection
to
it
,
and
to
shrowd
it
under
the
wings
of
their
authority
,
that
the
vinyard
which
his
owne
right
hand
hath
planted
,
be
not
devoured
either
by
cunning
of
wily
Foxes
,
or
by
the
rage
of
the
wilde
Bore
out
of
the
forrest
.
A
second
degree
of
this
love
is
,
to
preferre
the
peace
,
the
libertie
,
the
prosperitie
of
the
Church
before
our
owne
private
concernements
,
as
the
arme
offers
it selfe
to
the
blow
for
the
preservation
of
the
head
wherein
consists
the
safety
of
the
body
,
and
the
elements
forsake
their
proper
motions
for
the
good
of
the
Vniverse
;
thus
did
Vriah
that
worth
souldier
and
faithfull
servant
of
the
Lord
and
o●
David
,
being
advised
by
the
King
to
goe
home
and
refresh
himselfe
with
the
comforts
of
his
own
.
The
arke
(
saith
he
and
Israel
and
Iudah
dwel
in
tents
,
and
my
Lord
Ioab
an●
the
servants
of
my
Lord
abide
in
the
open
fields
:
shall
then
goe
into
mine
owne
house
to
eate
and
to
drinke
and
lie
with
my
wife
?
by
thy
life
and
the
life
of
thy
soule
,
I
will
not
doe
this
thing
:
a
memorable
speech
,
an
admirable
resolution
to
be
in
a
manner
carelesse
of
himselfe
,
till
he
saw
the
state
of
the
Church
(
the
prosperitie
whereof
then
depended
upon
the
preservation
of
the
Arke
)
to
be
in
safety
.
To
like
purpose
was
that
noble
answer
of
Terentius
a
renowned
captaine
under
Valens
the
Emperour
,
an
Arrian
by
profession
,
who
returning
with
victorie
from
Armenia
,
and
being
thereupon
willed
by
the
Emperour
to
demand
some
recompence
for
his
good
service
,
presented
this
petition
that
the
Orthodox
Christians
might
have
the
libertie
of
a
Church
by
themselves
,
wherein
to
worship
God
apart
from
the
Arrians
(
whose
heresie
had
then
spred
it selfe
exceedingly
;
)
he
asked
not
(
saith
Theodoret
)
gold
or
But
the
third
and
last
and
highest
pitch
of
love
to
Gods
Church
is
,
when
a
man
,
but
specially
a
Prince
,
a
King
adventures
and
indangers
his
crown
,
his
kingdom
,
his
life
,
and
all
to
deliver
the
Church
from
oppression
and
persecution
;
and
surely
greater
love
than
this
hath
no
man
,
than
to
hazard
all
he
hath
for
the
good
of
the
Church
,
whereof
he
professeth
himselfe
a
member
;
and
great
reason
it
is
that
the
members
of
the
same
Church
(
though
farre
distant
in
place
yet
linked
together
by
the
same
faith
)
should
assist
such
an
one
with
their
persons
or
purses
,
or
both
(
if
they
be
able
;
)
or
if
with
neither
,
yet
at
leastwise
with
their
prayers
,
that
God
would
give
him
the
heart
of
David
,
the
head
of
Salomon
,
the
hand
of
Gideon
,
in
a
word
that
he
may
be
as
the
Sunne
:
Let
them
that
love
him
(
that
draw
their
swords
and
display
their
banners
in
his
cause
)
be
as
the
sunne
.
The
sun
(
saith
Syracides
)
is
vas
admirable
,
a
marvailous
instrument
;
and
well
might
he
so
call
it
,
it
being
next
to
man
himselfe
the
greatest
wonder
among
all
the
workes
of
God
,
and
in
a
manner
visibilis
mundi
Deus
,
the
visible
God
of
the
world
;
in
so
much
that
Socrates
(
judged
by
the
Oracle
the
wisest
man
then
living
)
would
spend
whole
dayes
in
gazing
upon
it
as
a
man
transported
and
ravished
in
admiration
of
it
,
and
truly
were
it
not
our
inbred
disposition
magis
nova
quam
magna
mir
ari
,
rather
to
wonder
at
things
new
and
strange
than
great
in
themselves
,
it
is
certaine
there
is
no
one
thing
we
should
so
much
admire
as
the
sunne
in
regard
of
the
greatnesse
,
the
glory
,
the
regularity
,
the
swiftnesse
,
but
above
all
the
wonderfull
vertue
and
efficacy
thereof
in
working
upon
these
inferiour
bodies
;
Let
them
then
that
love
him
,
and
so
love
him
Regular
and
constant
in
their
religious
purposes
as
the
sunne
is
uniforme
and
invariable
in
his
course
from
the
East
to
the
West
,
and
from
the
West
to
the
East
againe
,
from
the
North
to
the
South
,
and
from
the
South
to
the
North
againe
,
not
missing
the
least
jot
in
all
his
points
and
periods
,
turnes
and
returnes
,
but
performing
his
office
so
duly
,
so
exactly
,
so
precisely
,
as
if
he
were
indeed
a
reasonable
creature
and
perfectly
understood
what
he
did
according
to
that
of
the
Psalmist
:
he
appointed
the
Moone
for
seasons
,
and
the
Sunne
knoweth
his
going
downe
.
Safe
and
secure
in
their
persons
,
as
from
conspiracy
and
rebelion
at
home
,
so
from
forraigne
machinations
and
Iesuiticall
Assassinates
,
as
the
sunne
is
placed
out
of
gunne-shot
farre
enough
above
the
reach
of
all
malicious
and
forcible
attempts
,
free
not
onely
from
danger
but
from
all
feare
and
possibilitie
of
danger
.
Vnwearied
and
indeficient
in
their
pious
enterprizes
,
as
the
sunne
,
which
though
it
hath
now
lasted
by
the
space
of
so
many
thousand
yeeres
,
yet
since
the
first
creation
thereof
hath
it
lost
nothing
of
that
primitive
vigour
and
originall
perfection
which
by
Almighty
God
was
bestowed
upon
it
.
Swift
and
speedy
in
their
prosperous
successe
as
the
sunne
,
which
(
as
Astronomers
assure
us
)
runnes
above
a
thousand
miles
within
the
compasse
of
every
minute
;
and
this
incredible
swiftnesse
was
it
which
gave
occasion
to
Copernicus
and
others
to
conceive
,
that
the
globe
of
the
earth
did
rather
●●ove
and
the
sunne
stand
still
.
Lastly
,
Let
them
be
as
the
sunne
when
he
goeth
forth
in
his
might
,
which
the
Prophet
David
hath
excellently
described
:
In
them
hath
he
set
a
tabernacle
for
the
sun
,
which
as
a
bridegrome
comming
out
of
his
chamber
,
and
rejoyceth
as
a
strong
man
to
runne
a
race
,
his
going
forth
is
from
the
end
of
the
heaven
,
and
his
circuit
unto
the
ends
of
it
,
and
there
is
nothing
hid
from
the
heat
thereof
.
Let
them
that
love
him
be
as
the
sunne
when
he
thus
goeth
forth
in
his
might
.
Let
them
be
acceptable
and
glorious
,
powerfull
and
vigorous
as
the
sunne
when
he
riseth
in
the
morning
,
and
so
by
degrees
mounts
up
to
the
verticall
point
at
high
noone
,
chasing
away
the
darknesse
,
dissolving
the
frost
,
dispelling
the
mist
,
and
cheering
up
the
spirits
both
of
men
and
beasts
,
partly
with
its
warmth
,
and
part
ly
with
its
light
.
Let
their
wayes
bee
as
the
path
of
the
just
,
So
let
all
thine
enemies
perish
O
Lord
,
but
let
them
that
love
him
bee
as
the
sunne
when
he
goeth
forth
in
〈◊〉
might
.
Grant
this
good
Lord
we
beseech
thee
〈◊〉
thy
mercies
sake
,
for
thy
promise
sake
,
for
thy
sons
sake
,
to
whom
with
thee
and
the
holy
spirit
,
three
persons
and
one
God
invisible
,
eternall
,
only
wise

wee
ascribe

and
desire
to
bee
ascribed
all
power
,
Majesty
and

now
and
