5. Phineas prayed, &c. For Phineas executed iudgement. Psal. 106.30.

Suppose it graunted that the word in Hebrew signifieth to execute iudgement and not to pray, whereas we haue shewed the contrarie, what difference is there more in these two actions (which may be and are copartners in godly men) then in that of the Prouerbs cap. 3. God skorneth with the skornefull which Saint Iames and Saint Peter following the Gréeke,* 1.1 render, God resisteth the proud. To skorne and to resist are as much contrarie for so they will néeds call it, as to pray and to exe∣cute iudgement. But they are not contrarie, neither is this a peruerting of the meaning of the holy Ghost. These spéeches procéede of ouermuch eagernesse of stomacke against discipline, doctrine, and translations which our Church proposeth, as if there were cause inough to dislike eo nomine because she liketh and approueth it. But for a more ample answere to this their obiection, we referre the good Reader to the first part. cap. 2. pag. 84. 86.
