call_v the_o name_n of_o the_o place_n massah_n and_o meribah_n because_o of_o the_o chide_n of_o the_o child_n of_o israel_n and_o because_o they_o tempt_v the_o lord_n say_v be_v the_o lord_n among_o we_o or_o not_o mark_v they_o do_v murmur_v because_o they_o be_v bring_v into_o affliction_n but_o see_v what_o the_o text_n say_v therefore_o the_o place_n be_v call_v massah_n and_o

be_v mere_o because_o we_o be_v afflict_v i_o beseech_v you_o observe_v that_o scripture_n god_n call_v it_o a_o tempt_a of_o he_o when_o he_o afflict_v any_o for_o they_o to_o conclude_v and_o say_v that_o god_n be_v depart_v from_o they_o if_o a_o child_n shall_v cry_v out_o of_o his_o father_n and_o say_v that_o his_o father_n be_v turn_v to_o be_v a_o enemy_n to_o he_o because_o he_o do_v
