Proverbs2:22

Verſ. 22. But the wicked ſhall bee cut off] Certainly, ſuddenly, utterly, cum maxime velint vivere, when they have feathered their neſts, and ſet up their reſt, and reckon upon long life, as the fool in the Goſpel: God will ſhoot at them with an arrow ſuddenly, and fetch them off when they leaſt look for it. The wicked may dye ſinning: The Saints ſhall not dye till the beſt time; not till that time when, if they were but rightly informed, they would even deſire to dye.

Shall bee rooted out] Heb. plucked up, as degenerate plants, Ex[illegible: 1 letter]rientur, ſed exurentur; God ſhall likewiſe deſtroy thee for ever, hee ſhall take thee away, and pluck thee out of thy dwelling place, and root thee out of the land of the living, S[illegible: 1 letter]lah. Pſal. 52.5.
