no_o place_n for_o what_o agreement_n have_v the_o idol_n of_o covetousness_n with_o the_o temple_n of_o god_n therefore_o i_o will_v have_v the_o godly_a to_o bear_v in_o mind_n this_o precept_n of_o

all_o unlawful_a deal_n this_o undoubted_o shall_v move_v the_o godly_a profession_n rather_o to_o live_v poor_o than_o to_o cause_v the_o name_n of_o god_n and_o the_o gospel_n of_o christ_n to_o
