And beholdH2009, the springH3954 cropH3954 was afterH310 the king’sH4428 4mowingH1488. 2And it cameH1961 about, 5whenH518 it had 6finishedH3615 eatingH398 the vegetationH6212 of the landH776, that I saidH559, “7LordH136 GodH3068, pleaseH4994 pardonH5545! 8HowH4310 can JacobH3290 standH6965, For he is 9smallH6996?”3The LordH3068 1011changedH5162 His mindH5162 aboutH5921 thisH2088. “It shall not be,” saidH559 the LordH3068.
