¶ The .xvi. Chapter.
¶ The destruccyon of Moab.
A &rhand; Sende þe; Lord of the world a l&abar;be,
fr&obar; the rocke þt; lyeth towarde þe;
deserte, vnto þe; hil of the daughter
Sy&obar;. For as for the daughters of
Moab, they shalbe as atr&ebar;blyng byrde, þt; is
put out of heruest, for they shal carye them
vnto Arnon: gather your co&ubar;cel, come together
in iudgem&ebar;t, couer vs &wt; your shadowe
in the myddaye, as the nyght doth hyde the
chased, and bewraye not them that are fled
let my persecuted people dwell am&obar;ge you
&rhand; Moab, be thou their refuge against the
destroyer:
B for the aduersary is brought to
naught, þe; robber is vndone, the tyraunt is
waysted out of the land. And in mercy shall
the seate be prepared, and he shal syt vp&obar; it
in the trueth, &ibar; the tabernacle of Dauid iudgyng
and sekyng iudgem&ebar;t, ∧ making hast
vnto ryghteousnes. We haue heard of the
pryde of Moab, he is very proude, presumpteous,
arrogant, and full of indignacyon,
∧ vayne are hys lyes. Therfore shal Moab
make lamentaci&obar; because of the Moabites
(that shalbe slayne) yee they shal wayle all
together. Because of the &rhand; foundacy&obar;s of
the citye that is made of brick, shal ye complayne:
eu&ebar; &rhand; ye lame people that are left
onely behinde.
C For &rhand; the vynes of Hesbon are cut downe:
As for the vyne of Sibma, the Lordes
of the Heithen haue broken downe hyr
principall bra&ubar;ches: they are come euen vnto
Iazer, they w&ebar;t on w&abar;dering vnto þe; wildernesse.
Hyr goodly braunches were throwen
downe, as they w&ebar;t ouer the see. Therfore
will I mourne for Iazer, ∧ for the vyne
of Sibma. I will poure my teares vpon
the, O Hesb&obar; and Eleale, for the crie of thyne
enemyes is fallen vpon thy sommer frutes,
and vpon thyne haruest. The Myrth
and chere is taken awaye out of the plentifull
felde, and in the vyneyardes there shalbe
no ioye ner gladnesse.
D The treader shall treade out no wyne in
the presses, þe; song of theyr mery chere haue
I layde downe. Wherfore, my bowels shal
romble lyke an harpe for Moabs sake, and
myne inwarde partes for the cityes sake þt;
is made of bryck. And it shal come to passe,
that wh&abar; it is sene that Moab shalbe made
wery of hys hyll chapels, &rhand; he shall come
to his t&ebar;ple to praye, but he shal not be able
So then, thys is the say&ebar;g þt; the Lord hath
spoken concernyng, Moab sens that tyme.
But now the Lord hath spoken sayeng. In
thre yeares which shalbe as &rhand; the yeares
of an hyred seruaunt: shall the glorye of
Moab be turned into c&obar;fusion, thorow out
al his multitude, which is very great. And
that whych remayneth, shalbe very small
and feble.
