sin_n notwithstanding_o all_o those_o that_o be_v choose_v in_o christ_n before_o the_o foundation_n of_o the_o world_n be_v lay_v be_v without_o spot_n of_o sin_n in_o the_o sight_n of_o god_n so_o that_o they_o be_v both_o sinner_n and_o righteous_a if_o we_o consider_v our_o rebellious_a member_n which_o as_o saint_n paul_n say_v be_v sell_v under_o sin_n rom._n 7._o then_o we_o be_v grievous_a sinner_n but_o contrary_a if_o we_o believe_v that_o by_o the_o merciful_a favour_n of_o god_n he_o have_v free_o give_v we_o his_o christ_n and_o with_o he_o all_o thing_n so_o that_o we_o be_v destitute_a of_o no_o gift_n as_o paul_n do_v testify_v rom._n 8._o then_o be_v we_o righteous_a in_o his_o sight_n and_o our_o conscience_n at_o peace_n with_o god_n and_o what_o have_v we_o then_o to_o do_v with_o purgatory_n but_o leave_v a_o number_n of_o testimony_n that_o may_v be_v cite_v out_o of_o the_o holy_a scripture_n witness_v the_o promise_n let_v this_o suffice_v that_o be_v avouch_v by_o the_o prophet_n david_n who_o his_o 32_o psalm_n say_v bless_v be_v he_o who_o iniquity_n as_o forgive_v and_o make_v exposition_n of_o his_o own_o word_n he_o proceed_v bless_v

how_o be_v they_o then_o to_o be_v cover_v they_o be_v then_o cover_v from_o god_n when_o they_o be_v cover_v by_o god_n then_o be_v they_o cover_v from_o his_o wrath_n when_o they_o be_v cover_v by_o his_o mercy_n and_o they_o shall_v be_v cover_v by_o his_o mercy_n when_o they_o be_v cover_v by_o the_o precious_a blood_n of_o our_o saviour_n jesus_n christ_n who_o be_v our_o propitiation_n &_o

will_v find_v he_o out_o it_o follow_v in_o the_o next_o verse_n bless_a be_v the_o man_n to_o who_o god_n impute_v not_o his_o sin_n and_o in_o who_o spirit_n there_o be_v no_o guile_n but_o why_o be_v it_o not_o say_v here_o bless_a be_v he_o that_o have_v not_o sin_v at_o all_o or_o bless_a be_v he_o that_o have_v not_o offend_v or_o transgress_v the_o law_n because_o it_o be_v say_v else_o
