Micah6:11
Verſe 11. Shall I count them pure with the wicked ballances] Shall I cleare and acquit ſuch? I that am the righteous Judge of heaven and earth, I abhorr all injuſtice?Exod 34.7. Iob. 8. I that have named my ſelf a God that will by no meanes cleare the guilty, nor take the wicked by the hand? Doe they think to draw me in as a party? or that I will beare with their falſe and fraudulent dealings, which I have ſo oftdeclared againſt, and doomed both in the law, and by my ſervants Solomon, Amos, and others. No: aſſure your ſelves, your ſins ſhall find you out, and I will curſe you, ſmite you, plague you, and ſo ſet it on, as no creature ſhall be able to take it off. Let earthly Judges warp, as they will, and wink at ſin, I neither can nor will: but as men have ſowed, ſo they ſhall reape; as they have ſowed in hardneſſe of heart, ſo they ſhall reape in horrour of conſcience, & quorum eculos culpa clauſit, poena aperiet, as they have lived unconſcionably, ſo they ſhall die uncomfortably: at which times, their treaſures of wickedneſſe ſhall leave them in the lurch: as the devill leaves witches, when they come to priſon.
