amen_o it_o follow_v in_o the_o 7._o verse_n the_o work_n of_o his_o hand_n be_v verity_n and_o judgement_n all_o his_o fla●●●es_n be_v true_a i_o have_v heretofore_o declare_v the_o wonderful_a and_o

and_o first_o he_o declare_v that_o it_o be_v so_o be●●●_n by_o god_n appoint_v for_o he_o call_v the_o performance_n of_o it_o ●●●eth_n and_o because_o as_o flesh_n and_o and_o sin_n be_v proud_a and_o quick_o leap_v into_o the_o throne_n of_o judgement_n even_o over_o god_n himself_o &_o his_o do_n such_o vile_a and_o abominable_a devil_n be_v we_o the_o prophet_n give_v a_o further_a

the_o hebrew_n use_v this_o word_n when_o they_o speak_v of_o a_o sure_a and_o certain_a performance_n of_o that_o which_o be_v promise_v therefore_o they_o join_v these_o two_o word_n mercy_n and_o
