He can give a Supersedeas to the highest Attempts, and strongest Designs of Creatures: He can blow on them, and they are soon blasted, all their politic Conceptions prove abortive: Take Counsel together, and it shall come to nought, Isa. 8.10. Their most powerful Engines prove ineffectual, Verse 9. Gird your selves, and ye shall be broken in pieces. Some of them talked at a great, at a high rate; We will go up against Judas and destroy it, and set a King in the midst thereof, even the Son of Tabeal; But they speak beyond their strength, and reckon (as we say) without their Host; Thus saith ⟨p. 137⟩the Lord God, It shall not stand, neither shall it come to pass, Isa. 7.6, 7. But none can give a Supersedeas to the least of his Attempts: Behold he breaketh down, and it cannot be built up again; he shutteth up a Man, and there can be no opening, Job 12.14.
