They may come from a cord to a sword, from being bound to be slain. God hath several sorts of Instruments to chasten his people with, and as the best of outward good things may be the portion of evil wicked men, so the worst of outward evils may be the portion of good men; they may at any time, and sometimes shall perish by the sword, and as it follows, They shall die without knowledge.
