though_o their_o profess_a religion_n be_v good_a and_o bad_a man_n will_v be_v still_o self-troublers_a and_o troubler_n of_o other_o there_o be_v no_o peace_n say_v my_o god_n to_o the_o wicked_a they_o be_v like_o the_o trouble_a sea_n that_o cast_v up_o mire_n and_o dirt_n isa_n 46._o piety_n and_o true_a concord_n must_v grow_v together_o there_o will_v be_v in_o christ_n kingdom_n thing_n that_o offend_v and_o man_n that_o work_v iniquity_n there_o will_v be_v pastor_n and_o people_n that_o be_v worldly_a covetous_a lover_n of_o themselves_o lover_n of_o pleasure_n more_o than_o of_o
