that_o they_o can_v not_o escape_v the_o vengeance_n of_o god_n this_o therefore_o be_v the_o reason_n why_o the_o lord_n pronounce_v himself_o to_o be_v the_o judge_n of_o nineveh_n and_o also_o it_o

by_o synecdoche_n may_v this_o place_n be_v expound_v that_o the_o ninevite_n believe_v the_o lord_n even_o because_o when_o they_o understand_v that_o god_n be_v to_o geve_v they_o their_o deserve_a

more_o by_o the_o word_n of_o jonas_n than_o a_o naked_a terror_n and_o fear_n because_o if_o they_o have_v only_o apprehend_v that_o part_n even_o that_o they_o be_v guilty_a before_o god_n and_o
