Job8:7

7. Though thy beginning was small, yet thy latter end should greatly encrease .

The se[illegible: 1+ letters] se is either 1. Though thou hadst possessed but very little at first, yet God would have wonderfully blessed and increased thy estate. Whereas now God hath brought thee down from a great estate almost to nothing. Which is an evidence of his displeasure and thy hypocrisy. Or 2. Though the beginning of thy future fortunes, or, tho what thou hast left be now very small, yet if thou dost repent and seek God it shall vastly increase.
