The .ij. Chapter.
A noteThus sayeth the Lorde: For thre
∧ foure wyckednesses of Moab,
I wil not spare him: because
he brente the bones of the kyng
of Edom to ashes. Therfor wil
I sende a fyre into Moab, which shal c&obar;sume
the palaces of Carioth, so that Moab shal perysh
with a noyse, ∧ the sounde of a shawme.
I wyl rote oute the iudge from amonge th&ebar;, ∧
slaye all hys prynces with him, sayeth þe; lord.
B Thus sayth the Lorde: for thre and foure wickednesses
of Iuda, I wil not spare hym: because
he hath cast a syde the lawe of the Lord,
∧ not kepte his commaundementes: for why,
they wolde nedes be disceyued with the lyes,
that theyr forefathers folowed. Therfore wyl
I sende a fyre into Iuda, whiche shall c&obar;sume
the palaces of Ierusalem.
C Thus sayth the Lorde: For thre and foure
wickednesses of Israel, I wyl not spare hym:
because he hath solde the ryghteous for money,
and the poore for shues. They treade vp&obar;
poore m&ebar;s heades, in the duste of the earthe, ∧
croke the wayes of the meke. The sonne and
the father go to the harlot, to dyshonoure thy
holye name, they05Q1090 lye besyde euery aulter vpon
clothes taken to pledge, and in the house
of theyr Goddes they drincke the wyne of the
oppressed. Yet destroyed I the Amorite before
them, that was as hye as the Cedre trees, and
as stronge as the okes: notwithstandynge I
destroied his frute from aboue, and his rote
from vnder.
Agayne: I broughte you oute of the lande
of Egypte, and led you .xl. yeares thorowe the
wyldernesse, that ye myghte haue the Amorytes
lande in possession.
D I raysed vp prophetes
amonge your children, and absteyners am&obar;g
youre younge men. Is it not so. O ye chyldr&ebar;
of Israel, sayeth the Lorde? But ye gaue the
abstayners wyne to drincke, yea ye c&obar;maunded
the Prophetes, sayinge: Prophecye not.
Beholde, I will crashe you in sonder, lyke as
a wayne crassheth, that is full of sheaues, so
that the swifte shall not escape, nether þe; str&obar;g
be able to do anye thynge: no, the gyaunt shal
not saue hys owne lyfe. The archer shal not
abyde, and the swyfte of fote shall not escape.
The horsman shal not saue hys lyfe ∧ he þt; is
as manlye of stomacke as a gyaunte, shall in
that day be fayne to runne hys waye naked,
sayeth the Lorde.
