king_n 2._o that_o we_o may_v live_v in_o godliness_n and_o honesty_n and_o still_o they_o be_v the_o same_o who_o seek_v the_o lord_n their_o god_n and_o david_n the_o king_n but_o why_o david_n

be_v with_o jehoshaphat_n because_o he_o walk_v in_o the_o first_o way_n of_o his_o father_n david_n but_o beside_o this_o his_o very_a name_n be_v give_v to_o two_o zorobabel_n and_o the_o messiah_n
