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.
In the former part of the verse it was Ish, here it is Adam; 1I will not respect the person of the greatest men, nor will I flatter any earthly, any mortal man. Mr Broughton renders, That I respect an earthly man. The vulgar latin translates the whole verse thus; I will not accept any mans persons, and I will not equal God to man; As if he had said, I will not measure God by man, in his dealings and proceedings with man; As my purpose is to speak truth, and spare no man, so I will not wrong God by drawing him down to the rules of men. What is man that he should compare with God? But, though this be a truth, yet because it departs so far from the Original text, I will not stay upon it. Our reading is clear.
