plain_o in_o the_o second_o verse_n there_o when_o the_o lord_n have_v get_v silence_n he_o plead_v the_o cause_n of_o christ_n by_o way_n of_o expostulation_n as_o if_o he_o have_v say_v what_o

he_o shall_v pursue_v say_v the_o text_n and_o he_o shall_v pass_v on_o safe_o or_o as_o it_o be_v in_o the_o margin_n he_o shall_v pass_v on_o in_o peace_n as_o much_o as_o to_o say_v when_o christ_n
