CAP. XII.
12 Effraym disceyuede me in marchaundise,
and in ydol of the hous of Yrael.
Forsothe Judas witnes wente doun with
God, and with feithful saintis.
1 Effraym
-- --
feedith the wijnd, and sueth heete. Al day
he multiplieth lesyng, and distruccioun;
and made pees with Assiriens, and bare
oyle in to Egypt.
2 Therfore the dome of
the Lord with Juda, and visitacioun on
Jacob; vp the wayes, and vp the fyndyngus
of hym he shal &yogh;eelde to hym.
3 In the wombe he supplauntide, or disceyuyde,
his brother, and in his strengthe
he was dressid with an aungel.
4 And he
hadde victorie at the aungel, and he was
coumfortid; he wepte, and preiede hym;
in Bethel he fonde hym, and there he
spac with &yogh;ou.
5 And the Lord God of
oostis, the Lord, memorial of hym.
6 And
thou shalt be conuertid to the Lord thi
God. Keepe thou mercy and dome, and
hoope thou euermore in thy God.
7 Canaan,
in his hond a gyleful balaunce,
louede fals chalenge.
8 And Effraym saide,
Netheles Y am maad riche, Y fonde an
ydol to me; alle my trauailis shuln not
fynde to me wickidnesse, whiche Y synnyde.
9 And Y the Lord thi God, whiche
ledde thee out of the lond of Egypt; &yogh;it
Y shal make thee for to sytte in tabernaclis,
as in days of feest.
10 And Y spac
on prophetis, and Y multipliede visioun,
and in the hond of prophetis Y am
lickenyd.
11 &YOGH;if in Galaad an ydol, therfore
veynly they weren in Galgal offrynge
to oxis; forwhi and the auters of
hem as hepis on forowis of the feeld.
12 Jacob flei&yogh; into the cuntrie of Sirie, and
Irael seruyde into wyf, and seruyde into
wyf.
13 Forsothe in a prophete the Lord
ledde out Yrael of Egypt, and in a prophete
he is kepte.
14 Effraym terride me to
wrath in his bitternessis, and his blood
shal cum on hym; and the Lord his God
shal restoren hym his shenship.
