It is here observed to the honour of a good man, 1. That he does well
for himself. He has a certain rule, which with an even steady hand he
governs himself by: He walks in his integrity; he keeps good
conscience, and he has the comfort of it, for it is his rejoicing. He
is not liable to those uneasinesses, either in contriving what he shall
do or reflecting on what he has done, which those are liable to that
walk in deceit. 2. That he does well for his family: His children are
blessed after him, and fare the better for his sake. God has mercy in
store for the seed of the faithful.
