bless_v in_o abraham_n the_o angel_n which_o be_v the_o lord_n himself_o do_v bear_v witness_n likewise_o this_o promise_n give_v god_n unto_o isaac_n in_o thy_o seed_n shall_v all_o the_o nation_n

that_o in_o the_o father_n of_o the_o jew_n and_o in_o their_o seed_n and_o in_o the_o jew_n themselves_o all_o the_o kindred_n all_o the_o people_n all_o the_o nation_n and_o tribe_n of_o the_o earth_n be_v to_o be_v bless_v but_o these_o kindred_n nation_n people_n and_o tribe_n we_o shall_v mere_o call_v those_o gentile_n which_o be_v without_o the_o kindred_n nation_n people_n and_o tribe_n of_o the_o jew_n that_o blessing_n by_o which_o the_o gentile_n be_v bless_v in_o the_o jew_n be_v the_o election_n of_o god_n in_o mystery_n which_o be_v first_o proper_a to_o the_o jew_n and_o which_o by_o derivation_n and_o participation_n be_v from_o the_o jew_n pour_v upon_o the_o gentile_n therefore_o if_o god_n have_v prefer_v the_o jew_n in_o a_o mystical_a election_n let_v the_o gentile_n have_v next_o place_n with_o he_o in_o the_o same_o election_n but_o by_o no_o near_a title_n do_v the_o jew_n cleave_v to_o god_n than_o by_o this_o that_o they_o be_v the_o
