that_o be_v punish_v but_o i_o speak_v this_o even_o as_o it_o be_v say_v that_o god_n make_v not_o death_n whereas_o in_o another_o place_n it_o be_v write_v death_n and_o life_n be_v of_o the_o lord_n god_n the_o punishment_n therefore_o of_o the_o wicked_a which_o come_v of_o god_n be_v evil_a unto_o they_o that_o be_v evil_a but_o yet_o it_o be_v among_o the_o good_a work_n of_o god_n
