throughout_o the_o book_n of_o the_o lord_n of_o they_o than_o of_o all_o the_o family_n of_o the_o earth_n beside_o but_o therefore_o chief_o it_o be_v because_o of_o what_o be_v aforesaid_a to_o

therefore_o this_o diversity_n may_v be_v now_o observe_v under_o the_o gospel_n that_o unless_o when_o it_o be_v quote_v out_o of_o the_o old_a testament_n he_o be_v never_o call_v the_o god_n of_o

as_o so_o paul_n call_v he_o by_o the_o spirit_n as_o our_o saviour_n jesus_n christ_n argue_v to_o the_o jew_n if_o you_o be_v the_o child_n of_o abraham_n you_o will_v do_v the_o work_n of_o

so_o the_o same_o god_n will_v preserve_v hezekiah_n also_o from_o the_o danger_n of_o pine_v sickness_n and_o give_v he_o as_o it_o be_v a_o new_a life_n and_o health_n spring_v from_o out_o of_o
