faithful_a and_o holy_a man_n do_v set_v up_o their_o rest_n in_o christ_n four_o that_o the_o rest_n of_o god_n here_o mean_v consist_v only_o in_o the_o rest_n of_o man_n and_o that_o god_n call_v that_o his_o rest_n which_o indeed_o be_v primary_o and_o proper_o man_n rest_n the_o rest_n of_o god_n can_v be_v mean_v of_o any_o new_a rest_n in_o respect_n of_o himself_o only_o because_o it_o
