live_v walk_v act_n and_o carry_v ourselves_o that_o conscience_n may_v have_v no_o cause_n to_o reproach_v we_o you_o see_v that_o job_n do_v so_o live_v and_o carry_v himself_o that_o though_o his_o friend_n do_v reproach_v he_o his_o conscience_n do_v not_o reproach_v he_o though_o his_o friend_n do_v charge_v he_o yet_o his_o conscience_n do_v discharge_v he_o though_o his_o friend_n do_v condemn_v he_o yet_o his_o conscience_n do_v acquit_v he_o he_o do_v so_o live_v that_o he_o be_v able_a to_o maintain_v his_o integrity_n and_o uprightness_n and_o doubtless_o it_o be_v not_o a_o thing_n impossible_a but_o we_o do_v not_o set_v to_o it_o we_o do_v not_o set_v about_o it_o in_o earnest_n if_o we_o be_v christian_n indeed_o and_o not_o almost_o christian_n we_o may_v so_o live_v

reproach_v parent_n and_o servant_n reproach_v their_o master_n and_o one_o neighbour_n reproach_v another_o but_o it_o be_v possible_a so_o to_o live_v that_o conscience_n all_o this_o while_n may_v be_v at_o peace_n and_o not_o reproach_v we_o possible_o you_o may_v be_v ready_a to_o think_v and_o say_v within_o yourselves_o will_v we_o can_v tell_v how_o we_o may_v so_o live_v pray_v let_v we_o have_v some_o direction_n how_o we_o may_v so_o live_v that_o conscience_n may_v not_o reproach_v we_o but_o before_o i_o give_v counsel_n shall_v not_o i_o know_v of_o you_o whether_o you_o will_v

what_o god_n himself_o give_v we_o shall_v not_o i_o follow_v it_o sir_n if_o i_o give_v you_o any_o other_o counsel_n then_o what_o god_n in_o his_o holy_a word_n do_v give_v you_o i_o will_v entreat_v you_o not_o to_o follow_v it_o nay_o if_o you_o set_v it_o at_o naught_o i_o shall_v not_o be_v offend_v consider_v what_o jethro_n say_v to_o moses_n exod._n 18._o 23._o if_o thou_o shall_v

how_o you_o do_v set_v at_o naught_o the_o counsel_n of_o god_n now_o the_o first_o direction_n which_o i_o shall_v give_v you_o be_v this_o direction_n i._n set_a god_n always_o before_o you_o and_o
