say_v the_o lord_n where_o be_v the_o bill_n of_o your_o mother_n divorce_n who_o i_o have_v put_v away_o or_o to_o which_o of_o my_o creditor_n be_v it_o to_o who_o i_o have_v sell_v you_o behold_v for_o your_o iniquity_n have_v you_o sell_v yourselves_o and_o for_o your_o transgression_n be_v your_o mother_n put_v away_o here_o the_o lord_n declare_v that_o he_o be_v marry_v to_o israel_n but_o

as_o much_o as_o to_o say_v i_o have_v keep_v covenant_n with_o you_o but_o you_o for_o your_o iniquity_n have_v sell_v yourselves_o now_o have_v god_n reprobate_v these_o before_o the_o foundation_n of_o the_o material_a heaven_n and_o earth_n to_o sin_n death_n and_o damnation_n there_o be_v no_o deceit_n can_v be_v like_o it_o see_v god_n have_v thus_o here_o declare_v against_o it_o and_o in_o
