The .lxij. Chapter. A prophecye of the commynge of Christ.

A   For Syons sake therfore wyll I not holde my tonge, and for Ierusalems sake I wil not ceasse: vntil their righteousnesses breake forth as the shininge lyghte, ∧ their health as a burninge lampe. Th&ebar; shal the Gentiles se thy ryghteousnesses and all kinges thy glorye. Thou shalt be named wyth a newe name, whyche the mouthe of the Lorde shal shewe. Thou shalt be a croune in the hande of the Lorde, and a glorious garlande in the hande of thy God. B   From this tyme forthe thou shalt neuer be called þe; forsaken, ∧ thy land shal no more be called the wildernesse. But thou shalt be called05Q0966 Hephribah, ∧ thy lande05Q0967 Beula: for the Lorde loueth the, and thy land shalbe inhabyted. And lyke as a younge man taketh a doughter to mariage, so shall God mary him selfe vnto thy sonnes. And as a brydegrome is glad of his bride, so shall God reioyse ouer the.

But they þt; haue gathered in þe;

D   Stande backe, and depart a sunder, ye that stand vnder the gate: make roume ye people, repayre the strete, and take awaye the stones, ∧ set out a token for the people. Beholde, the Lorde proclameth in the endes of the worlde: note tell the doughter Syon: se, thy saluacyon commeth, beholde he bryngeth his treasure wyth hym, and hys worckes go before hym. For they whome the Lorde delyuereth, shalbe called the holy people: and as for the, thou shalt be named the greatly occupied, and not the forsaken.
