There was a promise made to Abraham that there should come out of his body, albeit it was almost dead, innumerable multitudes of people, who should be as the stars in the heaven for multitude, or as the sand upon the sea shore,◊footnote{◊ref{Heb.11.12}} so that it should be as impossible to number these who came out of his loins as to number the stars or the pickles (grains)grains of the sand; and he believed this promise, notwithstanding all that deadness; and accordingly it came to pass.

TWELFTH TABLE. 179
mise, then thou has this comfort, that God is bound to fulfil it to thee. There is nobody who will send up ane empty heart to God, and takes hold of a promise, but they must get grace; and that is the sweetest reciprocation that can be, to be giving our hearts to God, and to be receiving grace from him. It is good for us to be evermore sending up our prayers to God, and to be evermore receiving what we need from him; and thus still keep society with him, as we delight to be in their company whom we love.

CoONCLUSION.
Beloved, only a word or two now, and so we sall close. I was speaking to you of the fall of the walls of Jericho, in the end of Joshua vi., to shew that the ruin of that city was notable and singular ina [ ] manner. Joshua there, by warrant from the Lord, he pronounces a curse upon him that sall rise up to build the walls of that city Jericho again; and it was a very severe curse: and not only was it pronounced in general to be severe, but even in particular it was strait and severe. For he says, He that presumes to build this city he sall lay the foundation thereof in his first-born, that is, his eldest son sall die presently; and if so be that he go fordward, and takes not a lesson by this, (how many sons he had who did it we know not, or if the rest should die), "then, at the setting up the gates thereof, his youngest son sall die." This was a very strict and peremptory curse that was pronounced against the builder of this city. There were many reasons for the peremptoriness of it, but this seems to be the chief one. Because that whilk God casts down by his awin hand immediately, and he employs not the help or power of man to the doing thereof, man is over pert to mint (offer) to set it up again, let be to do it: when anything is casten down by man, man may build that up again, but not that whilk is directly and immediately casten down by God himself. ArpricaTioN.---God with his awin hand and immediat power did cast down Jericho into this land, and build up the walls of Jerusalem; and therefore it is not possible that a curse can go by (past) these who presumes to build up Jericho here again: whatever temporal curse come upon them here, yet they sall not miss ane everlasting curse, if they leave not offit.
