your_o god_n as_o you_o do_v tempt_v he_o in_o the_o place_n of_o temptation_n which_o be_v when_o they_o come_v from_o the_o desert_n of_o sin_n and_o by_o the_o lord_n appointment_n camp_v at_o

but_o thus_o you_o may_v see_v how_o ready_a the_o wicked_a and_o ungodly_a always_o be_v to_o tempt_v god_n as_o sathan_n do_v christ_n again_o in_o that_o christ_n answer_v the_o devil_n his_o
