2. See the warrants for it in the Scripture, i. e. in the Old Testament: (Numb. 6. 23.) the Lord gives a form of words to Aaron, and his sons, to be continued as a perpetual Liturgy from age to age, for the blessing the children of Israel, saying unto them, the Lord bless thee, and keep thee, the Lord make his face to shine upon thee, and be gracious unto thee; the Lord lift up his countenance ⟨p. 293⟩upon thee, and give thee peace, &c. Numb. 10. 35. Moses gives himself a set form, at the rising and resting of the Ark. When the Ark set forward, Moses said, Rise up Lord, and let thine enemies be scattered, and let them that hate thee, flee before thee; And when it rested, he said, return O Lord unto the many thousands of Israel.

Look down from thy holy habitation from heaven, and bless thy people Israel; and the Land which thou hast given us, as thou swearest, &c.
