the_o glory_n of_o his_o justice_n out_o of_o the_o hand_n of_o the_o wicked_a 3_o such_o be_v the_o nature_n of_o sin_n it_o just_o provoke_v god_n to_o be_v extreme_a because_o 1_o it_o be_v a_o

not_o only_o a_o transgression_n of_o god_n law_n but_o it_o be_v a_o injury_n offer_v to_o his_o sacred_a person_n there_o be_v no_o act_n of_o evil_n wherein_o our_o whole_a man_n deliberate_o

unto_o you_o i_o shall_v not_o have_v name_v it_o but_o that_o be_v not_o all_o for_z 3_o every_o sin_n be_v so_o much_o the_o great_a because_o it_o be_v commit_v by_o person_n that_o have_v receive_v all_o sort_n of_o kindness_n and_o be_v under_o all_o manner_n of_o obligation_n to_o the_o contrary_a therefore_o well_o may_v god_n be_v extreme_a for_o sin_n when_o find_v in_o they_o

the_o punishment_n shall_v be_v infinite_a also_o for_o if_o god_n reward_v we_o with_o glory_n if_o we_o serve_v he_o above_o our_o desert_n can_v we_o condemn_v he_o for_o but_o reward_v we_o according_a to_o our_o fault_n and_o if_o he_o do_v spare_v we_o and_o not_o inflict_v the_o extremity_n of_o his_o justice_n it_o be_v because_o his_o mercy_n intercede_v that_o glorious_a
