in_o immanuel_n that_o salvation_n which_o he_o have_v promise_v to_o come_v from_o the_o house_n of_o david_n but_o slight_v it_o because_o the_o house_n of_o david_n be_v now_o low_a and_o their_o

the_o lord_n will_v bring_v they_o water_n broad_a enough_o foreign_a water_n such_o as_o they_o desire_v but_o little_a for_o their_o good_a he_o will_v bring_v the_o assyrian_a upon_o they_o he_o

who_o they_o expect_v to_o be_v their_o saviour_n shall_v bring_v upon_o they_o with_o a_o purpose_n to_o destroy_v they_o and_o in_o the_o close_a of_o this_o threaten_a there_o be_v a_o elegant_a

o_o emmanuel_n yet_o because_o of_o their_o unbelief_n all_o this_o shall_v come_v upon_o they_o this_o turn_n of_o his_o speech_n to_o christ_n seem_v to_o be_v a_o indignity_n to_o christ_n that_o his_o land_n under_o the_o notion_n of_o his_o land_n shall_v be_v waste_v by_o such_o a_o wicked_a king_n but_o this_o appear_v to_o be_v add_v for_o two_o end_n one_o to_o signify_v the_o

but_o it_o shall_v come_v though_o it_o be_v emmanuel_n land_n second_o this_o be_v add_v as_o a_o secret_a ground_n of_o comfort_n of_o deliverance_n because_o it_o be_v the_o land_n of_o emmanuel_n the_o land_n and_o people_n where_o emmanuel_n be_v to_o be_v bear_v and_o where_o he_o be_v to_o reign_v where_o he_o have_v and_o will_v have_v his_o fire_n and_o furnace_n his_o seat_n ●nd_v

but_o the_o power_n of_o the_o king_n of_o assyria_n and_o this_o king_n of_o assyria_n shall_v be_v their_o scourge_n to_o beat_v and_o almost_o to_o break_v they_o in_o piece_n which_o be_v
