Vers. 74. So they that fear thee, seeing me shall rejoice, because I have trusted in thy word.
Vers. 74. So they that feare thee, seeing me shall reioyce, because I haue trusted in thy word.
Here is an end why be desireth knowledge, for that others by my example shall be moved to seek thee, and shall have hope that thou also wilt hear them when they1 cry. This then is a great honour, that we shall not only save our own souls, but also be helps to others, that they may be saved, wherein the Lord vouchsafeth us great honour: for to cause the careless to seek God, and to confirm the weak, is a great honour. Likewise hereby we shall stop the mouths of them that speak against the ways of the Lord.
