The .x. Chapter. The people is moued to requyre the doctryne of trueth of the Lorde. The Lorde promyseth to vpset ∧ comforth the house of Israel.

A   Praye the Lord then by tymes to geue thou the note latter rayne, so shall the Lorde make cloudes, ∧ geue you raine ynough, for all the intreace of the felde: For vayne is the answere of Idols. The sothsayers se lyes, ∧ tel but vayn dreames: the comforthe that they geue, is nothinge worth. Therfore go they astraye lyke a flocke of shepe, ∧ are troubled, because they haue no sheperde. noteMy wrothfull displeasure is moued at the sheperdes, ∧ I will vpset the goates. For the Lord of hostes wil graciously viset his flocke, the house of Iuda, and hold them as a goodlye fayre horse in the battell. noteOut of Iuda shall come the helmet, the nale, the battelbowe, and all the princes together. They shalbe as the giauntes, whiche in the batell tread doune the myre vpon the stretes. They shal fight, for the Lorde shalbe wyth them, so that the horsem&ebar; shalbe confounded. I will c&obar;forth the house of Iuda, and preserue the house of Ioseph. C   I wil turne th&ebar; also, for I pitie them: ∧ they shalbe lyke as they were, when I had not cast them of. For I the Lord am their God, and wil hear them. Ephraim shalbe as a gyaunt, and their hert shalbe chereful as thorow wine: yea, their children shall se it, ∧ be glad, ∧ their herte shall reioyce in the Lord. I wil blow for them ∧ gather th&ebar; together, for I wil redeme th&ebar;. They shal increase as they increased afore. I will sow th&ebar; am&obar;g the people, that they may thincke vpon me in farre countreyes, they shall lyue &wt; their childr&ebar;, ∧ turne again. D   I wil bring th&ebar; again also from the l&abar;d of Egipt, ∧ gather th&ebar; out of Assiria. I wil carie th&ebar; into the land of Galaad ∧ to Libanus, ∧ they shall wante nothing. He shall go vpon the sea of trouble, ∧ smyte the sea waues: so þt; al the depe floudes shalbe dried vp. noteThe proud boastinge of Assur shalbe cast doun, ∧ the scepter of Egipte shalbe tak&ebar; away. I will c&obar;forte th&ebar; in the Lord, that they maye walcke in his name, sayeth the Lorde.
