very_a presence_n of_o the_o ark_n will_v excuse_v they_o and_o keep_v they_o safe_a and_o therefore_o they_o carry_v the_o ark_n into_o the_o camp_n though_o they_o reform_v not_o and_o repent_v not_o yet_o they_o think_v the_o ark_n will_v save_v they_o so_o many_o there_o be_v that_o think_v the_o ark_n will_v save_v they_o though_o never_o so_o wicked_a but_o nothing_o will_v secure_v a_o
