The great Lawgiver observes such a Legal course in his justice, that whom Plenty hath swelled up to the disease of wickedness, Poverty shall be Physic to bring them to humility. And again, Those that have suffered the Slavery of Bondage, to be free for his Service, shall inherit a Canaan, to encourage them in their Integrity. The Israelites which were exposed to the tyranny of injustice under the Egyptian Pharaoh, must be comforted again with Milk and Honey. But lest a sudden Liberty should procure their forgetfulness of him that relieved them in misery, a tedious Journey must usher them to Repose. They Are come near Iordan, and their Commander (poor wretches) surrenders up his Soul to the Giver thereof. Yet no sooner is he deceased, then Ioshua is raised. dt np2, r-crq vvd p-acp dt n1 pp-f n1, vmb vbi vvn av p-acp dt n1 pp-f n1. dt j n1 vvz d dt j n1 p-acp po31 n1, cst r-crq n1 vhz vvn a-acp p-acp dt n1 pp-f n1, n1 vmb vbi n1 pc-acp vvi pno32 p-acp n1. cc av, d cst vhb vvn dt n1 pp-f n1, pc-acp vbi j p-acp po31 n1, vmb vvi dt np1, pc-acp vvi pno32 p-acp po32 n1. dt np1 r-crq vbdr vvn p-acp dt n1 pp-f n1 p-acp dt jp np1, vmb vbi vvn av p-acp n1 cc n1. cc-acp cs dt j n1 vmd vvi po32 n1 pp-f pno31 cst vvd pno32 p-acp n1, dt j n1 vmb vvi pno32 p-acp vvb. pns32 vbr vvn av-j np1, cc po32 n1 (j n2) n2 p-acp po31 n1 p-acp dt n1 av. av dx av-c vbz pns31 vvn, av np1 vbz vvn.
