you_o know_v the_o very_a behold_v of_o the_o brazen_a serpent_n when_o people_n be_v sting_v god_n so_o order_v it_o that_o the_o very_o behold_v shall_v bring_v help_n though_o we_o know_v not_o how_o to_o those_o that_o be_v wound_v and_o sting_v by_o those_o serpent_n so_o god_n have_v ordain_v in_o his_o bless_a wisdom_n that_o the_o discovery_n of_o jesus_n christ_n the_o behold_v of_o
