Ver. 8. And I will ſet my face againſt that man] I will look him to death: Or, Ʋultuoſè torveque illum intuear. laying aſide all other buſineſſe, I will ſee to it, that he be ſoundly paid.

And will make him a ſign and a proverb] That when men would expreſſe a great puniſhent upon any,Ier. 29.22. Tantalus, [non-Latin text not transcribed] ut vult Plato. they ſhall reſemble it to his, as the Jews did to Ahab's and Zedekiah's (that naughty couple) and the Heathens to that of Tantalus and Tityus.

And I will cut him off from the midſt of my people] This is yet a further and a more formidable menace: this is far worſe then to be a by-word to the people.
