The testimony of the Prophet, being in substance Gods1 promise, is of large extent, saying, they that thy law shall have great prosperity, and they shall have none hurt. And the speech of Eliphas to Job, is of no small force, when he saith, He shall deliver 2thee in six troubles, and in the seventh, the evil shall not touch thee. In famine, he shall deliver thee from death: and in battle, from the power of the sword. Thou shalt be hid from the scourge of the tongue, and thou shalt not be afraid of destruction when it cometh.
