The .xxx. Chapter.
The retourne of the people from Babylon. God by
hys chastenynge sheweth that the people is synfull.
The destruccyon of the enemyes of Israell.
A These are the wordes, that the
Lorde shewed vnto Ieremye,
sayenge: Thus saith the Lorde
God of Israell: Wryte vp dylygentlye
al the wordes, that I
haue spoken vnto the, in a boke. For lo, þe; time
commeth (sayth the Lorde) that I wyl brynge
agayne the presonners of my people of Israel
and Iuda, sayeth the Lord: For I wyl restore
them vnto the lande, that I gaue to theyr fathers,
and they shall haue it in possessyon.
Agayne, these wordes spake the Lorde,
concernynge Israell and Iuda: Thus sayeth
the Lord: We heare a terryble crye, fear ∧ disquietnesse.
For what els doth thys sygnyfye,
that I se? Namely, that al strong men smyte,
euerye man hys hande vpon hys loynes, as a
woman in the payne of her trauayle. Who
euer sawe a man trauayle wyth chylde? noteEnquere
thereafter, and se. Yea al theyr faces are
maruelous pale:
Alas for this daye, whiche is so dredefull,
that none maye be lykened vnto it: and alas
for the tyme of Iacobs trouble, from the
whiche he shall yet be delyuered.
B For in that
daye, sayeth the Lorde, I wyll take his yocke

The captiuite of Israel.
from of thy rocke, ∧ breake thy bondes. They
shall no more serue straunge Goddes vnder
hym, but they shall do seruyce vnto God their
Lorde, and to Dauid theyr Kynge, whome I
wyll rayse vp vnto them. noteAnd as for the, O
my seruaunt Iacob, feare not (sayth the Lord)
and be not afrayed, O Israell. For lo, I wyll
helpe the also from farre, and thy sede from
the lande of theyre captiuite.
And Iacob shall turne agayne, he shalbe
in rest, and haue a prosperous lyfe, and no m&abar;
shal make hym afrayed. For I am wyth the,
to helpe the, sayeth the Lorde. And thoughe I
shall destroye all the people, amonge whome
I haue scatred the, yet wyll I not destroy the
but correcte the, and that with dyscrecion. For
I knowe, that thou arte in no wyse wythoute
faute. Therfore thus sayeth the Lorde: I am
sory for thy hurte and woundes. noteThere is no
man to medle with thy cause, or to bynde vp
thy woundes: there maye no man helpe the.
C All thy louers haue forgotten the, and
care nothynge for the. noteFor I haue geuen the
a cruell stroke, and chastened the roughly: and
that for the multitude of thy mysdedes, for
thy synnes haue had the ouer hande. Why
makest thou moue for thy harme? I my selfe
haue pyte of thy sorowe, but for the multytude
of thy mysdedes and synnes, I haue done
this vnto the.
noteAnd therfore all they that deuoure the,
shalbe deuoured, and all thyne enemyes shall
be led into captiuite. All they that make the
wast, shalbe wasted them selues: and al those
that robbe the, wyl I make also to be robbed.
For I wyll geue the thy healthe agayne, and
make thy woundes whole, sayeth the Lorde,
because they reuyled the, as one caste awaye,
and despysed, O Syon.
noteFor thus sayth the Lorde: Beholde, I will
set vp Iacobs tentes agayne, and defende his
dwellynge place. The cytye shalbe buylded
in her olde estate, and the houses shall haue
theyr ryghte foundacyon. And oute of them
shall go thankesgeuynge, and the voyce of
ioye.
I wyll multyplye them, and they shall not
mynishe: I shall endue them wyth honoure,
and no man shall subdue them. Theyr chyldren
shalbe as a fore tyme, and theyr congregacyon
shall continue in my syghte. And all
those that vexe them, wyll I vyset.
noteA captayne also shall come of them, and
a prince shall sprynge oute from the myddest
of them: hym wyll I chalenge to my self, and
he shall come vnto me. noteFor what is he, that
geueth ouer hys herte to come vnto me, sayth
the Lorde. noteYe shalbe my people also, and I
wylbe youre GOD. Beholde, on the other
syde shall the wrathe of the Lorde breake oute
as a stormye water, as a myghtye whyrle
wynde: and shall fall vpon the heades of the
vngodly.
The terryble dyspleasure of the Lorde
shall not leaue of, vntyll he haue done, and
perfourmed the intente of hys herte, whiche
in the note latter dayes ye shal vnderstande. At
the same tyme (sayeth the Lorde) shall I be
the God of all the generacions of Israel, and
they shalbe my people.
