and_o our_o strength_n a_o very_a present_a help_n in_o trouble_n if_o a_o person_n have_v slay_v a_o man_n at_o unawarre_n he_o be_v to_o flee_v unto_o one_o of_o the_o city_n of_o refuge_n and_o the_o reason_n be_v give_v deut._n 19_o 6._o why_o god_n will_v have_v three_o of_o those_o city_n in_o three_o several_a part_n of_o the_o land_n lest_o the_o avenger_n of_o blood_n pursue_v the_o slayer_n while_o his_o heart_n be_v hot_a and_o overtake_v he_o because_o the_o way_n be_v long_o and_o slay_v he_o therefore_o will_v god_n have_v they_o in_o divers_a place_n because_o a_o man_n slay_v another_o at_o unaware_o may_v be_v near_o to_o one_o of_o those_o city_n and_o so_o prevent_v danger_n by_o get_v into_o one_o of_o they_o for_o sanctuary_n now_o if_o once_o a_o man_n be_v within_o the_o wall_n or_o gate_n of_o one_o of_o those_o city_n of_o refuge_n than_o he_o be_v safe_a let_v the_o avenger_n of_o blood_n follow_v as_o hard_o as_o he_o will_v and_o let_v his_o heart_n be_v as_o hot_a as_o it_o will_v yet_o if_o once_o within_o the_o city_n of_o refuge_n the_o man_n be_v safe_a when_o the_o avenger_n of_o blood_n pursue_v hot_o a_o man_n be_v in_o present_a danger_n but_o if_o he_o get_v but_o the_o city_n of_o refuge_n over_o his_o head_n though_o the_o avenger_n pursue_v at_o his_o very_a heel_n yet_o the_o city_n of_o refuge_n be_v a_o very_a present_a help_n in_o that_o time_n of_o danger_n so_o say_v the_o psalm_n god_n be_v our_o refuge_n our_o city_n of_o refuge_n suppose_v trouble_n and_o danger_n shall_v pursue_v a_o man_n as_o close_v at_o the_o heel_n as_o the_o avenger_n of_o blood_n do_v the_o man_n slayer_n it_o may_v be_v in_o such_o a_o case_n of_o danger_n there_o be_v no_o possibility_n of_o escape_n yes_o that_o there_o be_v god_n be_v our_o refuge_n and_o our_o strength_n a_o very_a present_a help_n in_o trouble_n let_v danger_n be_v as_o present_a as_o may_v be_v yet_o he_o be_v a_o very_a present_a help_n there_o be_v a_o all-sufficiency_n in_o god_n both_o for_o defence_n and_o offence_n there_o be_v no_o danger_n so_o great_a or_o present_a from_o which_o his_o power_n be_v not_o able_a to_o rescue_v

to_o keep_v a_o enemy_n off_o and_o to_o defend_v a_o man_n within_o it_o from_o the_o danger_n of_o enemy_n without_o 2._o that_o it_o be_v for_o offence_n so_o as_o to_o hurt_v and_o spoil_v a_o

be_v a_o weak_a woman_n to_o he_o and_o yet_o a_o weak_a woman_n have_v the_o advantage_n of_o a_o strong_a tower_n prove_v too_o good_a for_o he_o for_o a_o woman_n from_o the_o tower_n cast_v a_o
