we_o shall_v see_v he_o face_n to_o face_n oh_o what_o fleet_n or_o army_n be_v there_o on_o earth_n or_o in_o the_o whole_a world_n that_o can_v harm_v you_o if_o you_o be_v follower_n of_o god_n

that_o a_o kingdom_n a_o house_n or_o army_n or_o fleet_n divide_v against_o itself_o can_v stand_v but_o must_v fall_v into_o desolation_n and_o hence_o we_o find_v that_o the_o child_n of_o israel_n

to_o keep_v the_o lord_n with_o or_o among_o such_o a_o people_n or_o army_n the_o truth_n of_o this_o lesson_n we_o may_v see_v confirm_v to_o we_o in_o the_o case_n of_o the_o israelite_n here_o in_o this_o chapter_n of_o our_o text._n for_o we_o read_v that_o they_o by_o their_o fear_n and_o faint-heartedness_n by_o their_o unbelief_n and_o cowardice_n when_o god_n have_v command_v they_o not_o to_o fear_v or_o to_o be_v afraid_a at_o the_o outward_a strength_n and_o power_n of_o their_o enemy_n the_o amorites_n and_o canaanites_n thereby_o tempt_v the_o lord_n and_o provoke_v he_o
