Isaiah31:2
Ver. 2. Yet he alſo is wiſe] yea he is the only wiſe God, whatever the worlds wizzards think of Him, or of themſelves. They counted, the voyage down to Egypt the wiſeſt way; and to reſt altogether upon God,Tacita Antitheſis in qua latet Antanaclaſis. to be altogether impolitique, as the caſe now ſtood. Egypt alſo they knew was famous for wiſdom, chap. 19.11, 12. but conſidered not how God had fooled them, Exod. 1. and taken thoſe foxes in their own craft, 1 Cor. 3 19.
And will bring evil] To thoſe evil-Counſellors eſpecially, [non-Latin text not transcribed].
