live_v 70._o year_n and_o beget_v abram_n nahor_n and_o haran_n now_o it_o be_v manifest_a that_o he_o beget_v they_o not_o all_o three_o in_o the_o 70._o year_n of_o his_o age_n as_o saint_n austen_n well_o observe_v and_o consequent_o that_o he_o beget_v some_o of_o they_o in_o his_o ripe_a year_n abram_z therefore_o be_v not_o bear_v till_o terah_n be_v 130._o year_n old_a for_o terah_n be_v
