than_o a_o maintenance_n for_o that_o house_n and_o they_o that_o shall_v say_v prayer_n in_o it_o of_o these_o in_o order_n and_o first_o of_o the_o first_o then_o shall_v the_o lord_n be_v my_o

as_o before_o he_o call_v the_o very_a place_n bethel_n 1._o because_o god_n have_v manifest_v his_o presence_n here_o in_o a_o extraordinary_a manner_n as_o he_o do_v afterwards_o both_o in_o the_o
