Psalms36:5
Verſ. 5. Thy mercy O Lord, is in the Heavens.] Yea farre above them, Pſal. Admiratur David incredibilem Dei patientiam, &c. Vat. 108.4. and over all thy good and mens bad works. Otherwiſe thou couldeſt never endure ſuch provocations of the profane rout; who yet live upon thee, and ſhare in thy generall goodneſſe.
And thy truth unto the cloudes] Gods mercy goeth uſually yoaked with his truth and bounded by it; leſt any ſhould preſume upon it, conſidering that God is faithfull as well as mercifull; faithfull, I ſay, to fulfill both his promiſes and his menaces too. And as he hath mercy unmeaſurable, and truth unfailable for his Saints; ſo he hath Righteouſneſſe and Judgements for the Wicked, as it followeth.
