AD 1609

But (a) Jabes invocated the God of Israel, saying: If blessing thou wilt bless me, and wilt enlarge my borders, and thy hand be with me, and thou wilt make that I be not oppressed by malice. And God granted the things that he prayed for. (a) In joining a vow to his prayer he imitated holy Jacob. Gen. 28. And they both desired temporal things for the better serving of God, & advancing his Glory; especially that they might be assisted with grace not to yield to temptations, nor sin of malice.
