with thy oliveyard. |

appointed of the month Abib; for in it thou camest out from Egypt: and none shall
appear before me empty:) |
|
|
|

not; for he will not pardon your transgressions: for my name is in him. |

do all that I speak; then I will be an enemy unto thine enemies, and an adversary
unto thine adversaries. |
|

For mine Angel shall go before thee, and bring
thee in unto the Amorites, and the Hittites, and the Perizzites, and the Canaanites,
the Hivites, and the Jebusites: and I will cut them off. |

unto thee. |
