That which the wicked feareth, &c. Whatsoever is most contrary Doct. 1 to the affection, and liking of sinful persons, that they ¹may expect to be plagued withal. This the Lord threatened to the rebellious and obstinate Jews by the Prophet Ezekiel, I will take from them their power, the joy of their honour, the pleasure of their eyes, and the desire of their heart, their sons and their daughters. Ezek. 24. 25.
