Modern spelling is a reading aid: the words are the author’s, only the spelling is modernized. Original shows the page as printed, with the transcription marks.
Or as if they should put God in mind of their Father §2Israel in whom their confidence was; They shall cry to me, My God, we know thee, Israel: Oh remember our Father Israel and deal graciously with us for the sake of our Father Israel: Just like those in Matth. that would cry, We have Abraham to our Father: so here this people would cry; in their cries in the time of their affliction they would cry to God that they had Israel to their Father, we have reference to Israel who did so prevail as a Prince with God, and therefore we hope we shall fare the better for Israel;
Or thus, They shall cry to me, My God, we know thee, Israel: §3That is, we know thee to be the God of Israel, we have known how thy ways have been in former times for the good of thine Israel, and Lord, remember how thou hast wrought for thine Israel heretofore, and work now for us in the same manner: thus there is a great deal in this word, [Israel] if you set it in the last place in the verse, more than if you set it in the beginning.
