in_o fear_n where_o no_o fear_n be_v so_o neither_o will_v i_o have_v your_o fear_n swallow_v up_o your_o hope_n for_o if_o we_o do_v but_o repent_v of_o the_o evil_a of_o our_o sin_n god_n will_v likewise_o repent_v of_o the_o evil_a of_o his_o judgement_n we_o have_v a_o most_o pregnant_a text_n for_o this_o with_o which_o i_o conclude_v jer._n 18.7_o 8._o at_o what_o instant_n i_o shall_v speak_v concern_v a_o nation_n and_o concern_v a_o kingdom_n to_o pluck_v up_o and_o to_o pull_v down_o and_o to_o destroy_v it_o if_o that_o nation_n against_o who_o i_o have_v pronounce_v turn_v from_o their_o evil_n i_o will_v repent_v of_o the_o evil_a that_o i_o think_v to_o do_v unto_o they_o to_o wind_v up_o all_o therefore_o in_o one_o word_n of_o exhortation_n let_v we_o repent_v and_o be_v convert_v that_o our_o sin_n may_v be_v blot_v out_o when_o the_o time_n of_o refresh_a shall_v come_v from_o the_o presence_n of_o the_o lord_n let_v god_n warning-piece_n reclaim_v we_o and_o then_o his_o murdering-peece_n shall_v never_o go_v off_o let_v we_o repent_v while_o there_o be_v adhuc_fw-la quadraginta_fw-la dies_fw-la yet_o forty_o day_n so_o shall_v we_o escape_v the_o fatal_a subvertetur_fw-la the_o overthrow_n here_o threaten_v and_o let_v we_o make_v no_o long_a tarry_n to_o turn_v unto_o the_o lord_n let_v we_o not_o put_v off_o our_o repentance_n from_o day_n to_o day_n but_o let_v this_o very_a day_n present_v be_v the_o birthday_n of_o our_o new_a birth_n i_o and_o you_o and_o all_o that_o hear_v i_o this_o day_n let_v we_o now_o turn_v every_o one_o of_o we_o from_o our_o evil_a way_n and_o from_o the_o wickedness_n that_o be_v in_o our_o hand_n which_o if_o we_o do_v god_n himself_o will_v likewise_o turn_v and_o repent_v he_o will_v turn_v our_o
