Augustine upon the two and forty Psalm, affirmeth, That the regenerate Man is not just because of his works, but by faith. For so he sayeth, In deed fear thou if thou accomprest thy self just, if thou haste not the same saying out of an other Psalm, Psalm 130. Enter not into judgement with thy Servant, for if thou shalt execute Justice without Mercy, 1Whither shall I go? if thou Lord shalt mark straitly our sins, Oh Lord, who shall abide it? Psal. 144.

Enter not intoo iudgement with thy Seruaunt, for yf thou shalte execute Iustice without Mercye, 1Whither shall I goe? if thou Lorde shalte marke strayghtly our sinnes, Oh Lord, who shal abyde it? Psal. 144.

Enter not into into judgement with thy servant because no living flesh shall be justified in thy sight. 1Then here no living flesh shall be justified in thy sight: because, whosoever liveth here though he live never so just, yet woe be to him if God shall enter into judgement with him.
