when_o they_o come_v to_o marah_n in_o the_o same_o chapter_n they_o can_v not_o drink_v of_o the_o water_n of_o marah_n for_o they_o be_v bitter_a therefore_o the_o name_n of_o it_o be_v call_v

the_o 17._o of_o exod._n beginning_n and_o all_o the_o congregation_n of_o the_o child_n of_o israel_n journy_v from_o the_o wilderness_n of_o sin_n and_o pitch_v in_o rephadim_n and_o there_o be_v

we_o know_v do_v invite_v bee_n and_o wasp_n unto_o it_o and_o so_o the_o sweet_a of_o prosperity_n do_v invite_v the_o devil_n and_o temptation_n man_n that_o be_v in_o a_o prosperous_a estate_n be_v

where_o the_o honey_n of_o prosperity_n be_v they_o be_v in_o very_o great_a danger_n of_o temptation_n that_o be_v in_o a_o prosperous_a condition_n the_o danger_n of_o man_n that_o be_v in_o a_o

before_o we_o they_o be_v honour_v more_o than_o the_o other_o be_v but_o now_o mark_v their_o burden_n that_o come_v in_o with_o their_o honour_n and_o that_o i_o will_v show_v you_o out_o of_o two_o
