create_v he_o they_o and_o god_n bless_v they_o and_o in_o this_o state_n god_n set_v they_o above_o all_o thing_n that_o he_o have_v make_v but_o after_o man_n and_o woman_n have_v transgress_v the_o command_n of_o god_n they_o sew_v figg-leaves_a together_o to_o make_v they_o apron_n for_o their_o eye_n be_v open_v and_o they_o come_v to_o see_v their_o shame_n by_o their_o transgression_n and_o by_o transgress_v the_o command_n of_o god_n the_o spiritual_a eye_n come_v to_o be_v shut_v and_o man_n and_o woman_n come_v to_o fall_v from_o the_o image_n of_o god_n and_o so_o after_o man_n and_o woman_n have_v transgress_v the_o command_n of_o god_n and_o fall_v from_o his_o image_n the_o lord_n god_n make_v coat_n of_o skin_n to_o clothe_v they_o withal_o so_o you_o may_v see_v that_o the_o

those_o that_o the_o lord_n make_v they_o be_v of_o skin_n so_o the_o transgression_n of_o the_o command_n of_o god_n come_v when_o the_o ear_n go_v out_o after_o the_o serpent_n cover_v sin_n the_o

to_o see_v their_o outward_a shame_n and_o nakedness_n who_o have_v fall_v from_o the_o image_n of_o god_n that_o cover_v they_o and_o therefore_o they_o go_v to_o cover_v the_o outward_a shame_n and_o now_o man_n and_o woman_n in_o the_o fall_n be_v take_v think_v what_o they_o shall_v eat_v and_o drink_v and_o what_o they_o shall_v put_v on_o and_o this_o be_v come_v upon_o they_o by_o

the_o world_n the_o love_n of_o the_o father_n be_v not_o in_o he_o and_o far_o say_v for_o all_o that_o be_v in_o the_o world_n the_o lust_n of_o the_o flesh_n the_o lust_n of_o the_o eye_n and_o

the_o father_n but_o of_o the_o world_n and_o you_o may_v see_v how_o pride_n be_v cry_v against_o throughout_o the_o scripture_n of_o truth_n and_o they_o that_o fear_v the_o lord_n do_v hate_v evil_a pride_n the_o evil_a consequence_n of_o pride_n pride_n and_o arrogancy_n by_o pride_n come_v contention_n and_o a_o man_n pride_n shall_v bring_v he_o low_o but_o honour_n uphold_v the_o

isaiah_n say_v the_o lord_n of_o host_n have_v purpose_v to_o stain_v the_o pride_n of_o all_o glory_n and_o to_o bring_v into_o contempt_n all_o the_o honourable_a of_o the_o earth_n isa_n 23.9_o and_o therefore_o love_v not_o that_o which_o god_n will_v stain_v the_o lord_n say_v he_o will_v spread_v forth_o his_o hand_n in_o the_o midst_n of_o they_o as_o he_o that_o swim_v and_o he_o will_v

and_o the_o lord_n say_v he_o will_v mar_v the_o pride_n of_o judah_n and_o the_o great_a pride_n of_o jerusalem_n jer._n 13.9_o and_o do_v not_o jeremiah_n say_v because_o of_o the_o pride_n of_o

you_o may_v see_v that_o pride_n have_v hinder_v man_n from_o seek_v after_o the_o lord_n and_o turn_v to_o he_o and_o you_o may_v see_v edom_n destruction_n be_v for_o his_o pride_n obad._n 1_o and_o

life_n this_o be_v not_o of_o the_o father_n but_o of_o the_o world_n all_o this_o must_v be_v keep_v down_o in_o christian_n and_o david_n say_v the_o wicked_a in_o his_o pride_n do_v persecute_v the_o poor_a but_o be_v they_o not_o take_v in_o their_o device_n that_o they_o have_v imagine_v psal_n 10.2_o again_o david_n say_v the_o lord_n hide_v they_o that_o fear_v he_o in_o the_o secret_a of_o his_o presence_n from_o the_o pride_n of_o man_n and_o keep_v they_o secret_o in_o a_o pavilion_n from_o the_o strife_n of_o tongue_n psal_n 31.20_o and_o also_o david_n say_v that_o pride_n

and_o save_v the_o righteous_a that_o fear_v he_o and_o so_o you_o may_v see_v how_o pride_n be_v testify_v against_o by_o christ_n and_o his_o prophet_n and_o the_o holy_a man_n of_o god_n both_o in_o the_o old_a and_o new_a testament_n since_o man_n and_o woman_n fall_v from_o the_o image_n of_o god_n and_o therefore_o all_o be_v to_o fear_v the_o lord_n and_o learn_v of_o christ_n jesus_n who_o be_v meek_a and_o low_a in_o heart_n for_o it_o be_v say_v that_o josiah_n heart_n be_v tender_a and_o he_o humble_v himself_o before_o the_o lord_n 2_o chron._n 34.33_o and_o if_o my_o people_n
