¶ The .lij. Chapter. ¶ A consolacyon and comforte to the people of God.

A   Vp Sion vp, take thy strength vnto the: put on thyne honest raym&ebar;t O Ierusalem, thou holy citie. For fr&obar; thys tyme forth, there shall no vncirc&ubar;cysed ner vncleane person come in þe;. Shake the fr&obar; the dust, aryse ∧ stande vp, O Ierusalem. Plucke out thy neck fr&obar; the b&obar;de: O þu; captiue daughter Si&obar;. For thus sayeth the Lord: note ye are solde for naught, therfore shall ye be redemed also without eny mony.

B   For thus sayeth þe; Lorde God: note My people wente downe afore tyme into Egypte, there to be stra&ubar;gers, note and the kynge of the Assyri&abar;s oppressed them wythout anye cause. And nowe what profyt is it to me (sayth the Lorde) that my people is frely caryed awaye, and brought in to heuynes by their rulers, note ∧ my name euer still blasphemed? sayeth þe; Lorde? Therfore that my people maye knowe my name, therfore I say in that daye they shall knowe it, that I am he þt; do speake. I saye euen I. noteO howe bewtifull are þe; fete of the Embassitoure, þt; bryngeth þe; message fr&obar; þe; mo&ubar;tayne, ∧ &pro;clameth peace: that bryngeth the good tydynges, C   and preacheth health, and sayeth vnto Si&obar;: Thy God is þe; kynge. Thy watchmen shall lyft vp theyr voyce: with lowde voyce shall they preach of hym: for they shall note se hym present, wh&ebar; the Lorde shall conuerte Sion.

noteBe glad, with thankes gyuynge. O þu; desolate Ierusal&ebar;, ∧ reioyce together for the Lorde hath c&obar;forted hys people, he hath delyuered Ierusal&ebar;. The Lorde hath made bare hys holy arme, and shewed it forth in the syght of all the Gentiles, note ∧ all the endes of the earth hath sene the sauinge health of our God. note D   Awaye, awaye, get you out fr&obar; thence and touche no vncleane thynge. Go oute from amonge soche. And be cleane, that beare the vessell of the Lorde. For ye shall not escape by rennynge ner by fly&ebar;ge awaye: but note the Lorde shall go before you, and the God of Israel shall gather you together.

Beholde, my seruaunt shall deale wysely, therfore shall he be magnified, exalted ∧ greatly honoured. Lyke as the multitude shall wondre vp&obar; hym, because hys face shalbe so deformed ∧ not as a m&abar;s face, hys note bewtye lyke no man: Euen so shall the multitude of the Gentyles loke vnto hym, ∧ kynges shall shut their mouthes before him. noteFor they þt; haue not bene tolde of h&ibar;, shall se hym, ∧ they þt; herde nothynge of hym, shall beholde him.
