apostle_n who_o will_v not_o be_v astonish_v at_o these_o wurdꝭ_n of_o the_o apostle_n whereby_o he_o declare_v open_o that_o those_o which_o be_v not_o correct_v and_o chastise_v of_o god_n be_v not_o the_o child_n of_o god_n but_o to_o be_v more_o strong_o comfort_v in_o this_o text_n let_v we_o consider_v that_o those_o which_o be_v chastyse_v by_o the_o hand_n of_o god_n be_v his_o
