1He will not frame his dings.] The word is very elegant, you have not such an expression (that I know of) in all the Scripture besides. Some readest,a Non d•bunt cogitationes, he will not give himself to think of such a thing, of turning unto the Lord. Andb others they turn it thus,* Non dabunt operam, they will not do their endeavours to turn unto the Lord. And others,c Non adhibent actiones, they do not apply any action or theirs any way to turn to the Lord. Andd others, N•n permittunt opera, & facta sua; their custom in their ways of sin will not suffer them to turn to the Lord. Ande others thus. [Greek or Hebrew], they give not their counsels, their studies to turn to the Lord. These several translations I find of the word. And by all these together we may come to h•ve further light to know the meaning of the Spirit of God in th•se words; F•r the words are some what strange, therefore we had need of several expressions to find out the sense of them.
