not_o and_o therefore_o how_o be_v god_n say_v to_o be_v the_o confidence_n of_o the_o end_n of_o the_o earth_n to_o this_o we_o must_v answer_v according_a to_o a_o double_a acception_n of_o these_o

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 of_o his_o goodness_n that_o he_o have_v not_o leave_v himself_o without_o witness_n and_o that_o he_o only_o be_v to_o be_v depend_v on_o for_o all_o their_o good_a and_o to_o be_v trust_v and_o
