CAP. IX.
1 I saw the Lord stondynge on the
auter, and he saide, Smyte thou the
herre, and be the ouer thrisfoldis moued
to gydre; forsothe auerice in the hed of
alle, and Y shal slea in swerd the last of
hem; ther shal no fli&yogh;t be to hem,
and he that shal flee of hem, shal not be
saued.
2 &YOGH;if thei shuln go doun vn to
helle, fro thennus my hond shal leede
hem out; and &yogh;if thei shuln stye til in
to heuen, fro thennus Y shal drawe hem
doun.
3 And &yogh;if thei shuln be hid in the
top of Carmele, fro thennus Y seekynge
shal do hem awey; and &yogh;if thei shuln
hyde hem self fro myn ee&yogh;en in depnesse
of the see, ther Y shal comaunde to a
serpent, and it shal bite hem.
4 And &yogh;if
thei shuln go awey in to caitiftee bifore
her enmyes, ther Y shal comaunde to
swerd, and it shal slea hem. And Y shal
putte myn ee&yogh;en vpon hem in to yuel,
and not in to good.
5 And the Lord God
of oostis, that toucheth erthe, and it shal
fayle, and alle men dwellynge theryn
shuln mourne; and it shal stye vp as
eche stronde, and shal fleete awey as
-- --
the flood of Egypt.
6 He that beeldith
his stying vp in heuen, and foundide his
knytche, or berthen, on erthe; whiche
clepith waters of the see, and heeldith
hem out on face of the erthe; the Lord
name of hym.
7 Wher not as sonys of
Ethiopyens &yogh;e ben to me, the sonys of
Yrael? saith the Lord God. Wher Y
made not Yrael for to stye vp of the
lond of Egypt, and Palistens of Capadocie,
and Siriens of Syrenen?
8 Loo! the
ee&yogh;en of the Lord God on rewme synnynge,
and Y shal to gydre breke it fro
face of the erthe; netheles Y brekynge
togidere shal not breke to gydre the hous
of Jacob, saith the Lord.
9 Loo! sotheli
Y shal comaunde, and shal smyte in alle
folkis the hous of Yrael, as whete is
smyten in a rydil, and a lytil stoon of it
shal not falle on erthe.
10 Alle synners of
my peple shal dye in swerde, whiche
sayn, Yuel shal not nei&yogh;, and shal not
cumme on vs.
11 In that day Y shal rayse
the tabernacle of Dauid, that felle doun,
and Y shal a&yogh;ein beelde opnyngis of
wallis therof, and Y shal instore tho
thingis that fellen to gydre; and Y shal
a&yogh;ein beelde hym,
12 as in olde days, that
thei weelde relikis of Ydome, and alle
naciouns; for that my name is in clepid
on hem, saith the Lord doynge these
thingus.
13 Loo! days cummen, saith the
Lord, and the erer shal cacche the reper,
and treder of grape the man sendynge
seed; and mounteyns shuln droppe swetnesse,
and alle smale hyllis shuln be
tili&yogh;id.
14 And Y shal conuerte the caytifte
of my peple Yrael, and thei shuln beelde
forsaken cytees, and shuln dwelle; and
shuln plaunte vyne &yogh;erdis, and thei shuln
drinke wyne of hem; and thei shuln make
gardyns, and shuln ete fruytis of hem.
15 And Y shal plante hem on her erthe, and
-- --
Y shal namore drawe hem out of her
lond, whiche Y &yogh;aue to hem, saith the
Lord thi God.
Here endith the book of Amos, prophete,
and bigynneth the book of Abdias,
prophete.
