The Lord giveth the earth into the hand of the wicked. Man cannot get the earth into his own hand, let him be as wicked as he will: The Lord covers the faces of the Judges: If he enlighten them, no man can cloud them, if he open, no man can shut.
No creature can do good without the directing and enabling hand of God.
No creature can doe good without the directing and enabling hand of God.
No creature doth any evil without the supporting and over-ruling hand of God. (Isa. 41.23.) Show the things that are to come hereafter, that we may know that ye are gods, yea, do good or evil, that we may be dismayed, and behold it together. Let us see you do any mischief, if ye can. Man is set upon mischief, but he cannot act mischief, unless God (at least) permit. We were in an ill case, if man could do all the evil he hath a mind to.

Shew the things that are to come hereafter, that we may know that ye are gods, yea, doe good or evil, that we may be dismaied, and behold it together. Let us see you doe any mischief, if ye can. Man is set upon mischief, but he cannot act mischief, unlesse God (at least) permit. We were in an ill case, if man could doe all the evil he hath a minde to.
