Thus we see what judgement and justice are: I shall now open what it is to pervert judgement and justice. The same word is used in both.*
- *Istae repetitions div na eloquia multum commē dant, sive eadem verba alia sententia, sive aliis verbis eadem sententia repetatur: illa enim ejusdem rei resumptio, moram quandam in meditando & ponderando requirit, quod in psalmis frequens August.

Doth God pervert?] Some translate it, supplant justice. And so it imports, secret, cunning ways of injustice; for to supplant, properly is to come behind a man, and to strike up his heels, and cast him down, or to lay somewhat in his way, upon which he may trip or stumble, and then fall. God doth not supplant justice, he lays no plots, he sets no snares to entangle or overthrow a man in his cause.
