The xj. Chapter.

A    noteAfter this there shal come a rod forth of þe; Kynrede of Iesse, and a blossome out of his rote. The sprete of the LORDE shal light vpon it: the sprete of wysdome, and vnderstondinge: the sprete of councel, and strength: þe; sprete of knowlege, and of the feare of God: and shal make him feruent in the feare of God. For he shal not geue sent&ebar;ce, after the thinge þt; shal be brought before his eies, nether reproue a matter at the first hearinge: but with rightousnesse shal he iudge the poore, and with holynes shal he refourme the symple of the worlde. note

He shal smyte þe; worlde with þe; staff of his mouth, ∧ with þe; breath of his mouth shal he slaye the wicked. noteRightuousnesse shalbe the gyrdle of his loynes, treuth and faithfulnesse the gyrdinge vp of his raynes. B   Th&ebar; shal þe; wolfe dwel with the l&abar;be, and the leoparde shal lye downe by the gote. noteBullokes, lyons and catel shal kepe company together, so that a litle childe shal dryue them forth. The cowe and the Bere shal fede together, and their yongones shal lye together. The ly&obar; shal eate strawe like the oxe, or the cowe. The childe whyle he sucketh, shal haue a desyre to the serpentes nest, and wh&ebar; he is weened, he shal put his hande in to the Cockatryce denne. noteNoman shal do euel to another, no man shal destro another, in all the hill of my Sanctuary. C   For the earth shalbe ful of þe; knowlege of þe; LORDE, euen as though the water of the see flowed ouer the earth.

Then shal the Gentiles enquere after the rote of Iesse (which shalbe set vp for a token vnto the Gentiles) for his dwellinge shalbe glorious. noteAt the same tyme shal the LORDE take in honde agayne, to conquere þe; remnaunt of his people note (which are lefft alyue) From the Assiri&abar;s, Egiptians, Arabians, Morians, Elamites, Caldeyes, Antiochi&abar;s and Il&obar;des of the see. noteAnd he shal set vp a tok&ebar; amonge the Gentiles, and gather together þe; dispersed of Israel, yee and the outcastes of Iuda from the foure corners of þe; worlde. The hatred of Ephraim, and þe; enmyte of Iuda shalbe clene rooted out. D   Ephraim shal beare no euel wil to Iuda, and Iuda shal not hate Ephraim: but they both together shal flye vp&obar; the shulders of the Philistynes toward the West, and spoyle them together that dwell toward the East. The Idumytes and the Moabites shal let their h&obar;des fall, and the Ammonites shalbe obedient vnto them.

The LORDE also shal cleue the tunges of the Egipci&abar;s see, and with a mightie wynde shal he lift vp his honde ouer Nilus, and shal smyte his seu&ebar; streames and make men go ouer drye shod. And thus shal he make a waye for his people, þt; remayneth from the Assirians, like as it happened to þe; Israelites, what tyme they departed out of the londe of Egipte. note
