in_o the_o way_n to_o the_o holy_a land_n of_o which_o i_o shall_v observe_v here_o by_o the_o way_n that_o they_o bring_v they_o upon_o themselves_o and_o particular_o for_o digust_v their_o

16.13_o numb_a 16.13_o yet_o this_o be_v not_o likely_a to_o lessen_v the_o provocation_n or_o evade_v the_o punishment_n and_o as_o to_o other_o people_n by_o what_o outward_a mean_n soever_o or_o by_o whatsoever_o management_n or_o intrigue_n thing_n may_v seem_v to_o be_v order_v and_o accomplish_v yet_o it_o must_v be_v suppose_v that_o god_n rule_v the_o world_n still_o and_o if_o we_o

care_n and_o goodness_n upon_o what_o come_v to_o pass_v the_o murmur_a at_o it_o upon_o by_o account_n must_v needs_o be_v of_o as_o ill_a consequence_n now_o as_o ever_o and_o especial_o in_o the_o case_n under_o our_o present_a consideration_n and_o to_o make_v this_o the_o more_o evident_a i_o will_v brief_o run_v over_o the_o three_o head_n of_o murmur_a the_o text_n refer_v to_o the_o first_o be_v at_o deliverance_n when_o some_o unavoidable_a trouble_n and_o difficulty_n be_v suggest_v and_o if_o the_o nature_n of_o any_o one_o offence_n may_v be_v suppose_v to_o have_v a_o

in_o that_o horrid_a revolution_n they_o be_v so_o very_o covetous_a of_o god_n almighty_n do_v indeed_o prevent_v that_o fatal_a project_n the_o murmurer_n be_v upon_o for_o the_o glory_n of_o his_o
