Jeremiah38:5
Ver. 5. Then Zedekiah the King ſaid, Behold he is in your hand] O nihili Regem, qui ne verbulo quidem cruentis viris obluctatur! O King of clouts, ſaith One, who knowing the Prophets innocency and theſe Princes bloodthirſtineſſe, durſt not ſay a word for him, or againſt them! This inconſtancy of his, and impotency of ſpirit proceeded meerly from diffidence and diſtruſt in God.
