Sermons on Deuteronomy
On Tuesday the 27th of August
1555 The 62nd Sermon, which is the
first upon the ninth Chapter
Hearken O Israel, This day shall you go over Jordan, to enter possession upon Nations greater and mightier than yourself, and upon cities that are huge and walled up to heaven.
2. A people great and tall, even the children of the Enakims whom you has known, and of whom you has heard say, who is he that can stand against the children of Enact?
3. Know you therefore this day, that the Lord you God goes before you as a burning fire: he will destroy them and subdue them before your face, he will drive them out and rid them away, as the Lord has said to you.
4. And when the Lord you God shall have cast them our before your face: say not you in your heart, The Lord has brought me into this land to possess it, for my righteousness sake: for the Lord has driven out these Nations before you face for their wickedness.
