CAP. XLIX.
1 The mynde of Josie mad in a making
of smell, is a werk of a pyment makere.
2 In eche mouth as hony shal be inwardly
sweete the mynde of hym, and as melody
in the feste of wyn.
3 He is euene ri&yogh;t
godly in the penaunce of folc; and he
took awey the abhomynaciouns of vnpitousnesse.
4 And he gouernede to the Lord
his herte; and in the da&yogh;es of synnes he
strengthede pite.
5 Saue Dauid, and Esechie,
and Josie, alle the kingus diden synne
6 For whi the kyngus of Juda laften the
lawe of the my&yogh;ty, and dispiseden the
drede of God.
7 Forsothe thei &yogh;euen ther
kingdam to othere, and ther glorie to an
alien folc.
8 Thei brenden vp the chosen
cite of hoelynesse; and desert thei maden
weies of it in the hond of Jeremye.
9 For
whi euele thei treteden hym, that fro the
wombe of the moder is sacrid a profete,
to turnen vpsodoun, and to leesen, and
eft to bilden vp, and to renewen.
10 Esechiel,
that sa&yogh; the si&yogh;te of glorie, that he
shewede to hym in the char of cherubyn.
11 For whi he remembrede of the enemys
in weder, to wel don to them, that sheweden
ri&yogh;t weies.
12 And the boenes of the
twelue profetes springen oute fro ther
place; for whi thei strengtheden Jacob,
and a&yogh;eenbo&yogh;ten themself in feith of his
vertue.
13 What maner shul wee make large
Zorobabel? for whi and he as a tocne in
the ri&yogh;t hond of Irael;
14 and Jesum, the
sone of Josedech? the whiche in ther
da&yogh;es bildun vp the hous, and enhaunceden
the hoely temple to the Lord, mad
redy in to euermor glorie.
15 And Neemye
in the mynde of myche tyme, that rerede
-- --
vp to vs the turned vpsodoun walles, and
made to stonde &yogh;ates and lokes; that
rerede vp oure houses.
16 No man is born
in the erthe such as Enoch; for whi
and he is resceyued fro the erthe.
17 And
Joseph, that is born of man, prince of
brethern, fastnyng of folc of kynde, gouernour
of brethern, stablyng of puple;
and the bones of hym ben visitid,
18 and
aftir the deth thei profecieden.
19 Seth and
Sem, these anent men hadden gote glorie,
and ouer alle lif in the springyng of
Adam.
