condemnation_n and_o such_o a_o government_n will_v stand_v for_o the_o praise_n of_o they_o that_o do_v well_o and_o encourage_v of_o the_o upright_a but_o if_o such_o bear_v rule_n and_o handle_v

your_o mind_n that_o you_o may_v know_v your_o place_n and_o how_o to_o exalt_v justice_n and_o judgement_n the_o light_n of_o the_o son_n of_o god_n by_o which_o every_o man_n be_v light_v be_v but_o

towards_o god_n and_o towards_o man_n by_o the_o pure_a law_n of_o god_n write_v in_o the_o heart_n and_o upon_o such_o and_o over_o such_o your_o law_n have_v no_o power_n for_o they_o be_v one_o and_o in_o union_n with_o that_o law_n which_o be_v righteous_a and_o do_v witness_v the_o justness_n and_o goodness_n and_o holiness_n of_o it_o but_o if_o you_o make_v a_o law_n in_o your_o own_o
