The V. Chapter.
A Take the then a sharpe knyfe (O thou
sonne of man) namely, a rasoure. Take
that, and shaue the hayre off thy
heade and beerd: Then take the scoales and
the waight, and deuyde the hayre a sunder.
And burne the thirde parte therof in the fyre
in the myddest off the cite, and cut the
other thirde parte in peces with a knyfe. noteAs
for the thirde parte that remayneth, cast it
in the wynde, and then shewe the bare knyfe.
Yet afterwarde take a litle off the same,
∧ bynde it in they cote lappe. Then take a
curtesy of it, and cast it in the myddest of þe;
fyre, and burne it in the fyre. Out of the same
fyre shall there go a flame, vpon the whole
house of Israel.
B Morouer, thus sayde the LORDE God:
This same is Ierusalem. I set her in the middest
of the Heithen and nacions, that are rounde
aboute her, but she hath despised my
iudgm&ebar;tes more then þe; Gentiles th&ebar; selues,
and broken my c&obar;maundementes more then
the nacions, that lye rounde aboute her: For
they haue cast out myne ordinaunces, and
not walked in my lawes. noteTherfore, thus saieth
the LORDE God: For so moch as ye &wt;
youre wickednesse farre exceade the Heith&ebar;,
that dwell rounde aboute you: (For ye haue
not walked in my lawes, nether haue ye kepte
myne ordina&ubar;ces) Therfore thus saieth þe;
LORDE God:
I will also come vpon the, for in the myddest
of the will I syt in iugdm&ebar;t, in the sight
of the Heithen, and will handle the of soch a
fashion, as I neuer dyd before, and as I neuer
wil do from that tyme forth, and that because
of all thy abhominacions. For in the
the fathers shal be fayne to eate their owne
sonnes, and the sonnes their owne fathers. note
Soch a courte will I kepe in the, and the
whole remnaunt will I scatre in to all the
wyndes.
C Wherfore, as truly as I lyue (saieth the
LORDE God) seynge thou hast defyled my
Sanctuary, with all maner off abhominacions
and with all thy shamefull offences:
For this cause will I also destroye the. Myne
eye shall not ouersee the, nether will I spare
the.
noteOne thirde parte within the, shall die of
the pestilence and of honger: Another thirde
parte shall be slayne downe rounde aboute
the, with the swearde: The other thirde
parte that remayneth, will I scatre abrode
towarde all the wyndes, and drawe out the
swearde after them. Thus wil I perfourme
my indignacion and set my wrath agaynst
them, and ease my self. So that when I haue
fulfilled myne anger agaynst them, they
shall knowe, that I am the LORDE, which &wt;
a feruent gelousy haue spoken it.
D Morouer I will make the waist and abhorred,
before all the Heithen that dwell aboute
the, and in the sight off all them, that
go by the: so that when I punysh the in my
wrath, in myne anger, and with the plage
off my whote displeasure: thou shalt be a
very abhominacion, shame, a gasinge and
wondringe stocke, amonge the Heithen that
lye aboute the.
Euen I the LORDE haue spoken it, and
it shall come to passe, when I shute amonge
them the perlous dartes of h&obar;ger, which
shalbe but death: note Yee therfore shall I shute
them, because I will destroye you. I will encrease
hunger, and mynish all the prouysion
off bred amonge you.
Plages and mysery will I sende you, yee
and wilde beestes also to destroye yon. Pestilence
and bloudsheddinge shall come vpon
you, and the swearde wil I bringe ouer you.
Euen I the LORDE, haue sayde it.
