Verse 20. Hee that hath a froward heart, shall not finde good: and he that is peruerse in his tongue, shall fall into euill.
HE that hath a froward heart] which is not only misled by ignorance, or subiect to faults by frailtie, or ouertaken at some times by passions, but is giuen to be wilfull and stub∣borne, his soule is in the power of frowardnesse: [shall not finde good] shall obtaine no fauour or blessing from God, but iudgements and curses rather, both for his euerlasting state, and for his present condition, howsoeuer hee may seeme to possesse many earthly commodities: [and hee that is peruerse in his tongue] which abuseth his tongue to swearing, lying, flattering, railing, filthinesse, or any other leaud speaking, [shall fall into euill] shall feele and finde in the end some hea∣uie stroke of God to light vpon him. See the danger of fro∣wardnesse, Chap. 11. verse 20. where the froward of heart are said to be abomination to the Lord: and Chap. 12. vers. 8. where he that is froward in heart is threatned to bee despised. And the danger that commeth by an euill tongue shall be shewed in the next Chapter, verse 7.
