Nebuchadnezzer haing taken the vessels of the Temple, doth offer them in the house of God, thus honouring his idol with vniust spoiles: but our God will not so be serued: the wise man saith, Honour the Lord with thy riches, that is,* 1.1 thine owne, and not an others: They which offer vnto God, or giue vnto the poore of that which is gotten by extortion, are here∣in like vnto Nebuchadnezzer: and they be compared vnto the Eagle, which liueth of the pray of other birds, and that which shee leaueth, doth distribute among the rest, Pintus. The law of Moses forbiddeth, that any should bring the price of a whore into Gods house, Deut. 23. 18. nothing is acceptable vnto God, which is gotten by vnlawfull and dishonest means.
