The blessing of God shall be taken away from you, you shall not have those showers of blessing as formerly you were wont to have, but you shall be as a wilderness, Jer. 17. 5. 6. Cursed be that man that trusteth in man, and maketh flesh his arm, and departeth from the Lord: Why? For he shall be as the heath in the desert, and shall not see when good cometh, and he shall inherit the parched places of the wilderness in a salt land.

And I will set her as a dry land.] So the Septuagint read it, I will order you so. Your sins bring you out of order, but Gods plagues order that which sin doth disorder. At a dry land. This is contrary to the blessing of a godly man, for he is said to be as the tree planted by the river of water.
