must_v we_o look_v for_o what_o cause_n the_o wrath_n of_o god_n be_v kindle_v against_o israel_n &_o how_o the_o israelite_n have_v provoke_v the_o justice_n of_o god_n to_o punish_v they_o the_o

kindle_v against_o israel_n it_o be_v for_o none_o other_o cause_n but_o for_o their_o sin_n &_o it_o be_v needle_n to_o inquire_v what_o particular_a sin_n be_v the_o cause_n for_o it_o be_v not_o
