see_v how_o wise_o &_o with_o what_o powerful_a discretion_n the_o prophet_n enforce_v his_o exhortation_n 1_o from_o benefit_n bestow_v 2_o from_o promise_n make_v 3_o from_o judgement_n threaten_v so_o as_o if_o benefit_n will_v not_o allure_v they_o promise_n may_v provoke_v they_o if_o promise_n can_v not_o provoke_v they_o judgement_n may_v fear_v they_o when_o nabucadnezzar_n shall_v come_v
