Job34:19

19. How much less to him that accepteth not the persons of princes g, nor regardeth the rich more than the poor: for they all are the work of his hands ▪

And therefore of equal worth and price with him, and equally subject to his power and pleasures.

q i. e. To God, who respecteth not the greatest Princes so as to do any unjust thing to gain their favour, or to avoid their anger, to whom Princes and Peasants are equally subject and infinitely inferiour; who therefore is free from all temptation to injustice which commonly proceeds from respect of Persons, Levit. 19. 15. and to whom therefore thou didst owe more reverence, than thy words have expressed.
