CHAP. X. 1 The vanitie of idolatrie. 3 The Lorde promiseth to visite and comfort the house of Israel.


1   Aske you of the note Lord raine in the time of the latter raine: so shall the Lorde make white cloudes, and giue you showers of raine, and to euery one grasse in the field.


2   Surely note the idols haue spoken vanitie, and the southsayers haue seene a lye, and the dreamers haue tolde a vaine thing: they comfort in vaine: therefore note they went away as sheepe: they were troubled, because there was no shepheard.


3   My wrath was kindled against the shepherdes, and I did visite the note goates: but the Lord of hostes will visite his flocke the house of Iudah, and will make them as note his beautifull horse in the battell.


4   Out note of him shall the corner come foorth: out of him the nayle, out of him þe; bowe of battell, and out of him euery note appointer of tribute also.


5   And they shalbe as the mightie men, which treade downe their enemies in the mire of the streetes in the battell, and they shall fight, because the Lorde is with them, and the riders on horses shall be confounded.


6   And I will strengthen the house of Iudah, and I will preserue the house note of Ioseph, and I wil bring them againe, for I pitie them: and they shall be as though I had not cast them off: for I am the Lord their God, and will heare them.


7   And they of Ephraim shall be as a gyant, and their heart shall reioyce as thorowe wine: yea, their children shall see it, and be glad: and their heart shall reioyce in the Lord.


8   I will note hisse for them, and gather them: for I haue redeemed them: and they shall encrease, as they haue encreased.


9   And I will note sowe them among the people, and they shall remember me in farre countreys: and they shall liue with their children and note turne againe.


10   I will bring them againe also out of the land of Egypt, and gather them out of Asshur: and I will bring them into the land of Gilead, and Lebanon, and place shall not be found for them.


11   And he note shall goe into the sea with affliction, and shall smite the waues in the sea, and all the depthes of the riuer shall drye vp: and the pride of Asshur shall be cast downe, and the scepter of Egypt shall depart away.


12   And I will strengthen them in the Lorde, and they shall walke in his Name, sayth the Lorde.
