THE THIRTIE SIXE SERMON ON THE SIXTH CHAPTER OF THE BOOKE OF IVDGES.
Vers. 1. Afterward the children of Israel committed wickedness in the sight of the Lord, and the Lord gave them into the hands of Midian seven years. Vers. 2. And the hand of Midian prevailed against Israel: and because of the Midianites, the children of Israel made them dens in the mountains, and caves, and strong holds. Vers. 3. When Israel had sown, then came up the Midianites, the Amalekites, and they of the East, and came upon them, Vers. 4. And camped by them, and destroyed the fruit of the earth, even till thou come unto Azzah, and left no food for Israel, neither sheep, nor ox, nor ass. Vers. 5. For they went up, and their cattle, and came with their tents, as Grasshoppers in multitude, so that they and their camels were without number; and they came into the land to destroy it. Vers. 6. So was Israel exceedingly impoverished by the Midianites: therefore the children of Israel cried unto the Lord.
