he_o with_o great_a and_o heavy_a punishment_n and_o man_n the_o creature_n be_v unjust_o become_v a_o enemy_n to_o god_n the_o judge_n hate_v he_o and_o mutter_n against_o he_o because_o of_o the_o

enmity_n may_v cease_v and_o peace_n be_v settle_v between_o they_o so_o do_v christ_n he_o come_v betwixt_o his_o father_n and_o we_o offer_v to_o his_o
