CHAP. III. Hee reproueth the house of Israel of ingratitude. 11 For the which God will punish them.


1   Heare this worde that the Lord pronounceth against you, O children of Israel, euen against the whole familie which I brought vp fr&obar; the land of Egypt, saying,


2   You note onely haue I knowen of all the families of the earth: therefore I will visite you for all your iniquities.


3   Can two walke together except they bee note agreed?


4   Will a note lion roare in þe; forest, when he hath no pray? or wil a lions whelpe cry out of his den, if he haue taken nothing?


5    noteCan a birde fall in a snare vpon the earth, where no fouler is? or will he take vp the note snare from the earth, and haue taken nothing at all?


6   Or note shall a trumpet be blowen in the citie, and the people be not afraide? or shall there note be euil in a citie, and the Lord hath not done it?


7   Surely the Lord God will doe nothing, but he note reueileth his secrete vnto his seruantes the Prophets.


8   The lyon hath roared: who will not bee afraide? the Lord God hath spoken: who can but note prophecie?


9   Proclayme in the palaces at note Ashdod, and in the palaces in the lande of Egypt, and saye, Assemble your selues vpon the mountaines of Samaria: so beholde the great tumultes in the middes thereof, and the oppressed in the middes thereof.


10   For they knowe not to doe right, sayth the Lorde: they store vp violence, and robbery note in their palaces.


11   Therefore thus saith the Lord God, An aduersary shall come euen rounde about the countrey, and shall bring downe thy strength fr&obar; thee, and thy palaces shalbe spoyled.


12   Thus saieth the Lorde, As the shephearde taketh note out of the mouth of the lyon two legges, or a piece of an eare: so shall the children of Israel be taken out that dwell in Samaria in the corner of a bed, and in note Damascus, as in a couche.


13   Heare, and testifie in the house of Iaakob, saith the Lord God, the God of hostes.

-- --

Bring, let vs drinke.


14   Surely in the day that I shal visit the transgressions of Israel vpon him, I wil also visite the altars of Beth-el, and the hornes of the altar shal be broken off, and fall to the ground.


15   And I wil smite the winter house with the sommer house, and the houses of yuorie shal perish, and the great houses shalbe consumed, sayth the Lord.
