wicked in the persons of their posterity is deliuered in the 15. verse where it is auouched that the posteritie of the wicked shall lie in the graue and be deuoured by death But before he proceed to a particular declaratiō of this point he brandeth their posteritie in the 14. verse with a note of extreame madnes in that discerning the folly and vanity of their ancesters proceedings they doe notwithstanding approoue and follow them Hereupon in the 15. verse the Prophet inferreth that it succedeth with them as with their predecessors For death seazeth vpon them and consumeth them The truth of this third branch the Prophet maketh evident 1. By a Similitude thus vers 15. in the beginning As death seazeth vpon cattell and consumeth them to nought So death seazeth vpon the posteritie of the wicked and consumeth thē in the graue to dust 2. By a comparison from the greater thus Hell shall seaze vpon them and eternally torment their persons raised from out the graue that is in the day of iudgement vers 15. in the end No marueile then if corporall death seaze on them and consume them in their graues v. 15 in the beginning The first part of this comparison from the greater is amplified by a Dissimilitude wherein the condition of miserie prepared and reserued for the wicked in that day of the general resurrection is set forth vnto vs by notifying the different estate ordained for the righteous in the said day The Dissimilitude is this The righteous shall in that day of the generall resurrection eternally raigne in heauen ouer the wicked vers 15. in the middest Where the said day is called the Morning But hell shall eternally torment the wicked at the same day vers 15. in the end To the former sentence of the said Dissimilitude there is yeelded this proofe Vndoubtedly I the Prophet shall in the last day by the mightie power of the Lord both rise and be receiued into heauen to raigne in glorie ouer the wicked vers 16. Therefore all other righteous men likewise shall in that day both rise and raigne in glorie ouer the wicked For what appertaineth vnto the Prophet in regard of his faith in the Messias whereby he is righteous the same belongeth to each other man that hath the same faith whereby he is iustified The Prophet hauing hitherto from the beginning of vers 6 to the end of the 17. demonstrated the maine position of this Psalme by propounding and debating an instance taken from his owne person hee doth now in the 18. verse proceed to a further illustration of the said positiō by drawing into consideration the wretched condition whereto the wicked are subiect at their death Hee reasoneth vpon this ground after this sort If the wicked shall at their death rest naked and stripped of all their wealth and glorie and so be in a most miserable case the godly ought not to feare them though they abound and glorie in their wealth But the wicked shall at their death rest naked and stripped of all their wealth and glorie and so be in a most miserable case vers 18. Therfore the godly man ought not to feare them though they abound and glorie in their wealth vers 17. The Assumption is amplified 1. By an argument of Diuersitie thus Though they liue an happie life in the world both in their owne flattering conceit and in the opinion of others who doe applaud them vers 19. Thus doth this verse according to the French cohere with the 18 and is thus expounded by Caluin and Marlo It is said that the wicked blesseth his soule in his life that is he flattereth himselfe with a conceit that hee enioyeth an happie life in following his pleasures and commodities yet shall they at their death rest naked and stripped of all their wealth and glorie and so be in a most wretched case vers 18. 2. By a comparison from the greater thus After this life though neuer so long they shall be excluded from eternall life vers 20. So I expound this verse according to Tremell No marueile then if at their death they rest naked and stripped of their wealth and glorie vers 18. The first part of the said comparison which concernes the exclusion of the wicked from eternall life is cleared by a Similitude wherein touching this point of vncapablenes of eternall glory they are resembled vnto brute beasts The said Similitude distinguished into her parts is this As the brute beasts die and rest vncapable of eternall life vers 21. So shall the wicked die and rest vncapable of eternall life vers 20.21 Whereas in this 21. verse it is said A man in honour hauing no vnderstanding we must take it for a description onely of the wicked which haue bin spoken of throughout this Psalm But withall it containes the cause that maketh the wicked vncapable of eternall life which is the want of the knowledge and feare of God which being in the wealthie and honourable wicked is a barre betwixt heauen and them PSALM 50. A Psalme deliuered to Asaph The mightie God the God Iehoua hath spoken and called the earth from the rising vp of the Sunne to the going downe thereof 2 Out of Sion a place of most perfit beautie God shineth 3 Our God will come and will not keepe silence There shall be a deuouring fire before him and a mightie tempest round about him 4 He calleth vpon the heauens aboue and on the earth that he may deliuer vnto his people what is law saying 5 Gather vnto me those who are my welbeloued who haue made a couenant with me by sacrifice 6 When the heauens declared his righteousnes and God to be a soueraigne Iudge 7 Heare O my people saith he and I will speake heare O Israel and I will contest with thee I am God euen thy God 8 I will not reprooue thee for thy sacrifices or thy burnt offrings though they were not continually before me 9 I will take no bullocke out of thine house nor goates out of thy foldes 10 For all beasts of the forrest are mine and the beasts on a thousand mountaines 11 I know all the fowles of the mountaines and the wilde beasts of the field are mine 12 If I should be hungrie I would not tell thee for the world is mine and all that therein is 13 Will I eate the flesh of buls or drinke the blood of goates 14 Offer vnto God praise and pay thy vowes vnto the most high 15 And call vpon me in the day of trouble I will deliuer thee that thou maist glorifie me 16 But vnto the wicked saith God What hast thou to doe to declare mine ordinances and to take my couenant in thy mouth 17 Seeing thou hatest correction and hast cast my words behinde thee 18 When thou seest a theefe thou runnest with him and thou art partaker with the adulterers 19 Thou giuest thy mouth to euill and with thy tongue thou forgest deceit 20 Thou sittest and speakest

the Lord may take delight in his workes and not repent him that he hath made them vers 31. in the end The last argument vsed by the Prophet to inforce this dutie of magnifying the Lord is a comparison of equalitie wherein is offered to our consideration an example and profession on the part of the Prophet that himselfe during life will not faile to performe the said dutie His conclusion is this As for my selfe I professe that while I liue I will magnifie the Lord vers 33. Therefore let all other likewise magnifie and honour him vers 31. The Antecedent of this reason is enlarged thus If this my endeuour to magnifie the Lord will be a seruice pleasing and acceptable vnto him while I liue will I magnifie him But this my endeuour to magnifie the Lord will be a seruice pleasing and acceptable vnto him vers 34. in the beginning Therefore while I liue will I magnifie him vers 33. The Assumption is in this sort amplified 1. From the efficient of this acceptation concluded thus Whose endeuour to magnifie the Lord proceedeth from an heart reioycing in him his endeuour cannot be but a seruice pleasing and acceptable vnto the Lord. But the endeuour on my part to magnifie the Lord proceedeth from an heart reioycing in him vers 34. in the end Therefore this my endeuour cannot be but a pleasing and acceptable seruice vnto the Lord vers 34. in the beginning 2. From the consideration of the Lords proceeding with such as will not honour him thus The Lord will cut off from the earth such as refuse to honour and magnifie him vers 35. Therefore will he accept my endeuour to magnifie him as a pleasing seruice vers 34. in the beginning PSALM 107. PRaise the Lord because hee is good yea because his mercie endureth for euer 2 Let them report who haue been redeemed by the Lord and whom he hath deliuered from distresse 3 And whom he hath gathered from the regions of the East and the West of the North and the South 4 Who wandered in the desert and wildernesse finding no citie to dwell in 5 Both hungry and thirstie so as their soule fainted in them 6 When they cried vnto the Lord in their trouble he deliuered them from their distresse 7 And led them forth by the right way that they might come to a citie of habitation 8 Let them therefore magnifie before the Lord his louing kindnes and his wonderfull workes before the sons of men 9 For he satisfied the thirstie soule and filled the hungrie soule with goodnes 10 Such as dwell in darknesse and in the shadow of death bound in miserie and iron 11 Because they rebelled against the wordes of the mightie God and despised the counsell of the most high 12 Whereupon he humbled their hart with heauinesse they fell downe and there was no helper 13 When they cried vnto the Lord in their trouble he deliuered them from their distresse 14 He brought them out of darknes and out of the shadow of death and brake their bandes asunder 15 Let them therefore magnifie before the Lord his louing kindnes and his wonderfull workes before the sonnes of men 16 For he hath broken the gates of brasse and hath cut the bars of iron asunder 17 Fooles who by reason of their transgression and because of their iniquities are afflicted 18 Whos 's soule abhorreth all meate and they are brought to deaths doore 19 When they cried vnto the Lord in their trouble he deliuered them from their distresse 20 He sent his word and healed them and deliuered them from their graues 21 Let them therefore magnifie before the Lord his louing kindnesse and his wonderfull workes before the sonnes of men 22 And let them offer sacrifices of praise and declare his workes with reioycing 23 They who goe downe to the Sea in ships traffiquing vpon the great waters 24 They who see the workes of the Lord and his wonders in the deepe 25 How he commanding raiseth the stormie winde and lifteth vp the waues of the sea 26 How they mount vp to the heauens and descend to the deepe their soule melteth through trouble 27 They stumble and stagger to and fro like a drunken man all their cunning being gone 28 When they cried vnto the Lord in their trouble he deliuered them out of their distresse 29 He turned the storme into calme and the waues became still 30 And the waues being quieted hee brought them reioycing vnto the hauen where they would bee 31 Let them therefore magnifie before the Lord his louing kindnesse and his wonderfull workes before the sonnes of men 32 And let them exalt him in the congregation of the people and praise him in the assembly of the elders 33 He turneth the floods into a wildernesse and the springs of water into drinesse 34 A fruitfull land into barennesse for the wickednesse of them that dwell therein 35 He turneth the wildernesse into pooles of water and the drie land into springs of water 36 There he placeth the hungrie and they build a citie to dwell in 37 And sow the fields and plant vineyards which bring forth fruitfull increase 38 He blesseth them and they multiplie exceedingly and he diminisheth not their cattell 39 Afterward they are diminished and brought low by distresse euill and sorrow 40 He powreth contempt vpon Princes and causeth them to erre in desert places out of the way 41 He raiseth vp the poore out of miserie and maketh him families like a flock of sheepe 42 Let the vpright see it and reioyce and let all iniquitie stop her mouth 43 Who is wise let him obserue these things that they may vnderstand the louing kindnesses of the Lord. ANALYS PSALM 107. The subiect of this Psalme is this That the Lord is to be magnified first by all men in generall vers 1. Secondly by certaine sorts of men in particular From the beginning of the second verse to the end of the 42. verse That the Lord is to be magnified by all men in generall the Psalmist sheweth by this argument The Lord is good vers 1. in the middest Therefore all his people ought to magnifie him vers 1. in the beginning The Antecedent of this reason is amplified by a comparison from the greater thus The Lord is good yea that which is a matter of greater moment and excellencie this his goodnes doth neuer determine but endureth eternally vers 1. in the end Hauing declared that all men in generall ought to praise the Lord he proceedeth to shew that certaine sorts of men are tyed some of them by a proper obligation of an extraordinary mercy some by the regard of a common blessing to a speciall and praisefull acknowledgement of the Lords goodnes towards them Let vs see vpon what particular motiue these seuerall sorts of men are to ground this their action of magnifying the Lord. The first sort is of such as haue wandered out of their way in deserts fainting through hunger and thirst
