the_o child_n which_o not_o only_o imitate_v their_o parent_n in_o the_o like_a sin_n but_o do_v perhaps_o follow_v after_o clean_o contrary_a sin_n as_o i_o show_v unto_o you_o before_o and_o so_o

of_o any_o sin_n commit_v by_o the_o child_n and_o therefore_o he_o do_v not_o say_v he_o will_v visit_v those_o that_o imitate_v their_o father_n sin_n but_o he_o will_v visit_v the_o sin_n of_o
