theſe Fugitives ſhould eſcape, when'tis God's Net, and he ſpreads It, | his Almighty Power, his all fearching Wiſtom,his juft Vengeance that

vere gathered into $4;74774 as a Net, and there made Priſoners, and thence carried Captives. t Thus they ſhall be puniſh'd. # Both trom the Law of Moſes which they had with them, and as they had hcard from my Prophets which 1, have ſent unto them. 1 will, ſaith God, make good my Word.

13 Wo x unto them, for they have fled from me y :

+ drſtracion unto them z, becauſe they have tranſgreſled a againſt me : thovgh I have redeemed them 6, yet tney have ſpoken lies againit me c.

x It is the Voice hoth of Menace and Lamentation, the Prophet doth at once foretel and bewait their Miſeries. y As if it were not enough that they did at firſt leave my Government, Temple and Wor: ſhip, they have gone farther from me, they have haftened herein, they flew from me as Birds on- the Wing: Their Sia 18 Apoltacy. > This explains the Wo already mentioned, ſuch Wo twill be as ends in Deſtruttion. a Rebelliouſly caft off my Law and Government, much in State, more in Church-matters 3 Oppreffors in one, Ido- ters in the other, and incorrigible in both. 5 Out of Zzypr, but that's long, fince, and the Prophet ſpeaks of deliverance nearer to the times ne lived in; God redeemed them partly by Foaſh, 2 XIngs 13e but more fully by Ferobozm the ſecond, 2 King. 15. and would have compleated this deliverance, but they by their Sins hinder it. © Pra- Qtically they belie me, {lying to Idols, worſhipping them, praying to them, as if I were not able or willing to help them 3 and aſcribing the Praiſe of the Good they <cnjoy to their Idols, chap. 2. 5,6, 7. they belied his Corrections as if not deſerved, or ſeverer than need ; they belied the Good done, as if to9 little, or not done by God, but by their 1dol. ; . :
