if_o thou_o be_v true_o turn_v to_o god_n though_o sin_n do_v creep_v in_o as_o a_o thief_n yet_o thou_o will_v not_o suffer_v it_o to_o take_v possession_n of_o the_o house_n but_o you_o will_v

thou_o will_v keep_v it_o under_o the_o second_o effect_n be_v this_o that_o when_o he_o have_v sin_n thrust_v out_o sin_n than_o he_o hate_v it_o as_o amnon_n do_v his_o sister_n thamar_n he_o not_o

it_o be_v the_o the_o work_n of_o god_n to_o bring_v the_o fear_n of_o himself_o upon_o we_o for_o it_o be_v he_o that_o bring_v the_o fear_n of_o one_o man_n upon_o another_o he_o bring_v a_o fear_n
