Vers. 12.
Though they bring vp their children, yet will I depriue them from being men: yea, woe to them, when I depart from them.

Page 481

* 1.1THe figure Hypophora, or answering an obiection, whereby God answereth a certaine obiection of the Israelites, refuting and despising these threatnings of God, to wit, that their children and issue shall not be destroyed in such sort. For they will nourish and bring vp their children. But the Lord answereth, I will kill and vtterly destroy the selfe same your children or sonnes, the which you shall bring vp, so that there shall not any remaine of your twelue tribes, and nation. The reason is set downe, because your e∣state shall bee in euery respect most miserable, when as I shall bee angrie with you because of your sinnes. Therefore when as I shall depart from you for this cause, and shall not protect or defend you any longer with my fauour, hand, and power, your children shall be destroyed, that there shall not any more afterward be any nation or bodie of a people of them, albeit that some of them may remaine and be lest aliue. For the anger of God is the fountaine of all cala∣mities and miseries, as his good will towards vs through Christ, is the welspring of all good things. So Dauid confesseth Psal. 4. ver. 6.7.* 1.2 that whencesoeuer the wicked & vngodly looke to receiue their hope good, he is perswaded that the light of God his countenance towards his elect, shall throughly furnish them with all heauenly and spirituall ioy and comfort, and consequently with all other things requisite and needfull for the behoofe of this life, like as Psal. 30. ver. 7. he also acknowledgeth all his prosperitie to stand by the strength of the Lord. Woe therefore be vnto them, with whom the Lord God is angrie.
