¶ The .xxi. Chapter.
¶ He prophecyeth that Zedekiah shall be taken, and
the cytie burned.
A These are the wordes that the Lorde
spake vnto Ieremy note what tyme as
kyng Zedekiah sent vnto h&ibar; Phashur
the sonne of Melchias, and Sophonias the
sonne of Maasias preste, sayinge. noteAske
councell at the Lorde (we praye the) of our
behalfe, for Nabuchodonosor the kynge of
Babilon besegeth vs, yf the Lorde (peraduenture)
will deale with vs, accordynge to
his maruelous power, ∧ take him from vs.
Then spake Ieremy. Geue Zedekias this
answere. Thus sayeth þe; Lorde God of Israel:
beholde, I wil turne backe the weap&ebar;s
that ye haue in youre handes, wherwith ye
fyght agaynst the kynge of Babylon ∧ the
Caldees, which besege you round aboute þe;
walles, and I will bringe th&ebar; together into
the myddest of this cytie, ∧ I my selfe wyll
fyght against you, with an outstretched h&abar;de,
∧ with a myghtie arme, in great displeasure
and terrible wrath: ∧ wyll smyte th&ebar;,
that dwel in this citie: yee, both men &abar;d catell
shall dye of a great pestilence.
B noteAnd after this (sayeth the Lorde) I shal
deliuer Zedekias the kinge of Iuda, and his
seruauntes, his people (and soch as are escaped
in the citie, from the pestilence, swearde
and honger) into the power of Nabuchodonosor
-- --
kynge of Babylon: yee, into the handes
of theyr enemyes, into þe; handes of those
that folowe vpon their lyues, which shall
smyte them with the swearde, they shal not
pytie them, they shall not spare them, they
shall haue no mercy vpon them.
C And vnto this people þu; shalt saye. Thus
sayeth þe; Lorde: note beholde, I laye before you
the waye of lyfe ∧ deeth. noteWho so abydeth
in this cytie, shall perish: ether with þe; swearde,
wyth honger, or wyth pestilence. But
who so goeth out to holde on the Chaldees
parte, that besege it, he shall saue hys lyfe
∧ shall wynne his soule for a pray. noteFor I
haue set my face agaynst this cytie (sayeth
the Lorde) to plage it, and to do it no good.
It must be geuen into the hande of the king
of Babylon, and be brent with fyre.
And vnto the house of the kyng of Iuda,
saye thus: Heare the worde of the Lorde (O
thou house of Dauid) for thus saith þe; Lord:
note Minister ryghteousnes, &abar;d that soone, delyuer
the oppressed from violent power note or
euer my terryble wrath breake out lyke a
fyre,
D and burne so, that no man maye qu&ebar;ch
it, because of the wyckednes of youre ymaginacions.
noteBeholde (sayeth the Lorde) I
will come vpon you, that dwell in the valleyes,
rockes and feldes, and saye. noteTush:
who will make vs afrayed? or who will come
into oure houses? For I wyll vyset you
saieth the Lorde) because of the wickednes
of your inuencions, and wyll kyndle soche a
fyre in youre wood, as shall c&obar;sume al that
is aboute you.
