the_o apostle_n add_v if_o thou_o do_v that_o which_o be_v evil_a fear_n for_o he_o bear_v not_o the_o sword_n in_o vain_a for_o he_o be_v the_o minister_n of_o god_n a_o revenger_n to_o execute_v

those_o that_o do_v evil_a so_o they_o will_v join_v with_o he_o and_o serve_v he_o in_o his_o tyranny_n from_o fear_n and_o he_o bear_v the_o sword_n not_o only_o in_o vain_a in_o reference_n to_o any_o good_a end_n intend_v by_o god_n ordinance_n but_o altogether_o contrary_a to_o it_o and_o be_v so_o far_o from_o be_v the_o minister_n of_o god_n that_o he_o be_v as_o before_o a_o minister_n of_o his_o own_o lust_n to_o shelter_v those_o that_o do_v evil_a and_o to_o pursue_v with_o all_o wrath_n and_o revenge_v he_o that_o do_v good_a and_o will_v not_o be_v a_o slave_n to_o his_o

also_o for_o conscience_n sake_n what_o rule_v of_o conscience_n before_o lay_v infer_v now_o by_o the_o word_n wherefore_o urge_v such_o a_o asinine_a or_o stupid_a subject_n as_o to_o be_v subject_a

at_o least_o not_o in_o this_o place_n urge_v he_o not_o to_o it_o 6._o yet_o the_o apostle_n goes-on_a for_o this_o cause_n also_o pay_v you_o tribute_n for_o they_o be_v god_n minister_n continual_o
