that_o befall_v they_o so_o gideon_n have_v the_o name_n of_o jerubbaal_n give_v to_o he_o by_o his_o father_n joash_n upon_o his_o break_n down_o 32._o the_o altar_n of_o baal_n and_o jacob_n be_v

the_o bless_a of_o 29_o the_o lord_n which_o be_v among_o they_o a_o term_n of_o honour_n and_o respect_n and_o a_o name_n without_o doubt_n as_o it_o be_v due_a so_o be_v give_v to_o jehoiada_n in_o

that_o this_o blood_n and_o much_o more_o the_o blood_n of_o abel_n and_o all_o the_o righteous_a blood_n shed_v upon_o the_o earth_n shall_v be_v require_v of_o that_o generation_n as_o our_o

their_o ancestor_n be_v slay_v above_o seven_o hundred_o year_n before_o i_o grant_v this_o blood_n can_v no_o more_o literal_o be_v charge_v upon_o that_o generation_n than_o they_o can_v be_v say_v to_o have_v be_v cotemporary_n with_o those_o age_n of_o abel_n or_o zacharias_n but_o it_o be_v here_o thus_o represent_v partly_o because_o they_o be_v of_o the_o same_o temper_n and_o be_v act_v
