John Trapp on Isaiah 26:10

Ver. 10. Let favour be ſhewed to the wicked, &c.] No fair means will work upon him, whatever foul may do. But as an evil ſtomach turneth good meat into bad humours; ſo here, all's loſt that's laid out upon them.

Ʋngentem pungit, pungentem ruſticus ungit.

In the land of uprightneſs will he deal unjuſtly] In the Church where Righteouſneſs raigneth. Or, in a land of evenneſs he will wry and ſtray. Ye all know, (ſaith holy Bradford in a certain letter of his) there was never more knowledge of God (viz. in good King Edward 6. his days) and leſs godly living and true ſerving of God.Act. & Mon. It was counted a folly to ſerve God ſincerely: and earneſt prayer was not paſt upon. Preaching was but paſtime: Communion was counted too common, &c.

And will not behold the Majeſty of the Lord] Or, and he ſhall not ſee the Majeſty of the Lord, ſc. in his heavenly kingdom, Heb. 12.14.
