from_o god_n to_o let_v they_o know_v that_o he_o only_o shall_v be_v their_o trust_n and_o confidence_n in_o all_o nation_n there_o be_v such_o demonstration_n of_o god_n power_n such_o declaration_n

that_o he_o be_v or_o shall_v be_v their_o only_a trust_n and_o confidence_n 2._o though_o many_o nation_n do_v not_o as_o yet_o make_v god_n their_o confidence_n yet_o all_o nation_n shall_v one_o
