to_o baptiae_fw-la father_n and_o child_n i_o prove_v thus_o because_o the_o promise_n be_v to_o the_o father_n and_o child_n the_o promise_n be_v make_v to_o you_o and_o your_o child_n and_o therefore_o the_o command_n be_v be_v baptize_v every_o one_o of_o you_o and_o your_o child_n for_o if_o the_o child_n of_o believer_n have_v a_o right_a to_o be_v baptize_v by_o the_o word_n of_o
