Nevertheless yet, if any man have resisted 1ignorantly as Paul did, let him look on the truth which Paul wrote after he came to knowledge. Also if any man clean against his hart (but overcome with the weakness of the flesh) for fear of persecution, have denied as Peter did, or have delivered his book, or put it away secretly: let him (if he repent) come again, and take better hold, and not despair or take it for a sign that God hath forsaken him: for God ofttimes taketh his 2strength even from his very elect, when they either trust in their own strength, or are negligent to call to him for his strength. And that doth he to teach them, & to make them feel that in that fire of tribulation for his words sake, nothing can endure and abide, save his word, and that strength only, which he hath promised. For the which strength he will have us to pray unto him night and day, with all instance.
Neuerthelesse yet, if any man haue resisted 1ignorantly as Paule did, let him looke on the truth which Paule wrote after he came to knowledge. Also if any man cleane against his hart (but ouercome with the weaknes of the flesh) for feare of persecution, haue denied as Peter did, or haue deliuered his booke, or put it away secretly: let him (if he repente) come again, and take better hold, and not dispayre or take it for a signe that God hath forsaken him: for God ofttimes taketh hys 2strength euen frō his very elect, whē they either trust in theyr own strength, or are negligent to call to him for his strength. And that doth hee to teach thē, & to make thē feele that in that fire of tribulatiō for his wordes sake, nothing can endure and abide, saue his word, and that strēgth onely, which he hath promised. For the which strength he will haue vs to praye vnto him night and day, wyth all instance.
