the_o philistines_n have_v invade_v the_o land_n we_o read_v of_o a_o evil_a messenger_n pro_n 13.17_o who_o be_v either_o such_o a_o one_o as_o bring_v a_o evil_a message_n or_o be_v himself_o evil_a

as_o it_o note_v a_o messenger_n first_o by_o man_n so_o a_o messenger_n send_v by_o god_n the_o ancient_a prophet_n be_v in_o this_o sense_n the_o angel_n of_o god_n his_o messenger_n and_o so_o be_v
