Proverbs29:26

26 Many seek the rulers favour , but every mans judgment cometh from the LORD .

Men study to please and ingage their Rulers by their obliging carriage and humble Petitions and all other means, supposing that to be the only way to procure either right or favour from them, as they need or desire it.

The decision of his cause and the success of all his endeavours.

Dependeth wholly upon God who ruleth and inclineth their Minds and Hearts as it pleaseth him, Prov. 21. 1.

Marginal references: Ch. 19. 6.; Heb. the [illegible: 1 word] of a Ruler.
