therefore_o we_o can_v stand_v before_o god_n in_o it_o there_o be_v much_o unrighteousness_n in_o our_o righteousness_n therefore_o we_o can_v stand_v before_o god_n in_o it_o and_o how_o righteous_a if_o i_o may_v so_o speak_v soever_o our_o righteousness_n be_v or_o may_v be_v yet_o we_o can_v stand_v before_o god_n in_o it_o because_o he_o have_v appoint_v another_o righteousness_n or_o the_o
