promise_n be_v far_o set_v forth_o by_o two_o thing_n first_o the_o person_n to_o who_o it_o be_v make_v the_o people_n of_o israel_n and_o judah_n notify_v by_o two_o attribute_n 1_o first_o they_o

manner_n to_o put_v promise_n upon_o 2_o condition_n first_o if_o they_o be_v humble_v and_o humble_v themselves_o 1_o second_o if_o that_o humiliation_n be_v not_o contain_v within_o the_o compass_n of_o their_o breast_n only_o but_o express_v 2_o by_o prayer_n and_o confession_n of_o sin_n three_o if_o they_o seek_v my_o face_n seek_v to_o be_v reconcile_v 3_o seek_v his_o presence_n as_o separate_v from_o all_o thing_n else_o not_o seek_v corn_n wine_n oil_n but_o god_n himself_o four_o if_o they_o part_v with_o their_o sin_n in_o seek_v 4_o for_o they_o can_v maintain_v communion_n

this_o love_a compellation_n my_o people_n argue_v as_o much_o it_o be_v as_o if_o he_o shall_v say_v i_o can_v
