¶ The .xj. Chapter.
¶ Who they were that seduced the people of Israel.
Agaynst these he prophecyeth, shewynge them howe
they shalbe dispayred abroade. The renuynge of þe; hert
commeth of God, otherwyse can we not waclke in hys
c&obar;maundementes. He threateneth them that leane vnto
theyr awne councelles.
A Moreouer, the sprete of the Lord
lyft me vp, and brought me vnto
the East porte of the Lordes
house. And beholde, there were
xxv. men vnder the dore am&obar;ge
wh&obar; I sawe Iaazaniah the sonne of Azur,
and Pheltiah the sonne of Bananiah, the rulers
of the people. Then sayde the Lorde vnto
me: Thou sonne of man: these men ymagyn
myschefe, and a wycked councell take
they in thys cyte, sayinge: tush, there is no
destruccyon at hande, let vs buylde houses:
this Ierusal&ebar; is the cauldron, and we be the
fleshe. Therfore shalt thou prophecye vnto
them, yee, prophecye shalt thou vnto them,
O sonne of m&abar;. And wyth that fell the sprete
of the Lorde vpon me, and sayde vnto me:
Speake, thus sayeth the Lorde: On this maner
haue ye spoken (O ye house of Israel) ∧
I knowe the ymaginacyons of youre hertes.
Many one haue ye murthured in this cyte,
and fylled the stretes full of the slayne.
B Therfore, thus sayeth the Lorde God: The
slayne men that ye haue layed on the gro&ubar;de
in this cyte, are the flesh, and thys cyte is the
cauldron: note But I wyll brynge you out of it
note ye haue feared the swerde, ∧ I wyll brynge
a swearde ouer you, sayeth the Lorde God.
I wyll dryue you out of thys cyte and delyuer
you into youre enemyes hande, and will
condemne you. Ye shalbe slayne in all the coastes
of Israel, I wyll be auenged of you: to
lerne you for to knowe, that I am the Lord.
Thys cyte shall not be youre cauldron, nether
shall ye be þe; flesh theryn: but in the coastes
of Israel wyll I punysh you, that ye
maye knowe, that I am the Lorde: in whose
commaundem&ebar;tes ye haue not walcked, ner
kepte his lawes: note but haue done after þe; customes
of the Heathen, that lye ro&ubar;de aboute
you.
C Nowe when I preached, Pheltiah the sonne
of Bananiah dyed. Then fell I downe
vpon my face, and cryed wyth a loude voyce:
O Lorde God, wylt thou then vtterlye
destroye all the remnaunt in Israel? And so
the worde of the Lorde came to me on thys
maner: thou sonne of man: thy brethren, thy
kynsfolke, ∧ the whole house of Iuda, which
dwell at Ierusalem, saye. Wythdrawe ye
farre from the Lorde, for the l&abar;de is geu&ebar; vs
in possession. Therfore tell th&ebar;, thus sayeth
the Lorde God: I wyll sende you farre of amonge
the Gentiles, and skatre you am&obar;ge
the nacyons, ∧ I wyll halowe you but a lytle,
in the landes where ye shall come. Tell
th&ebar; also, thus sayeth the Lorde God: I wyll
gather you agayne out of the nacyons, and
brynge you from the countrees where ye be
scatred, and wyll geue you the lande of Israel
agayne. And they shall comme thyther.
And they shall take awaye all ther Idols ∧
all ther abhominacyons from thence.
D noteAnd I wyll geue you one hert, and I
wyll pl&abar;te a newe sprete wythin your bowels.
That stony herte will I take out of your
body, and geue you &rhand; a flesshy herte? that
ye maye walke in my commaundementes,
and kepe myne ordinaunces, and do them: þt;
ye maye be my people, ∧ I youre God But
loke whose hertes are dysposed to folowe
theyr abhominacy&obar;s and wycked lyuinges:
those mens dedes wyll I brynge vpon theyr
awne heades, sayeth the Lorde God. After
thys dyd the Cherubyns lyft vp theyr wynges,
and the wheles wente wyth them, and
the glory of the Lorde was vpon them. note
So the glory of the Lorde wente vp fr&obar; the
myddest of the cyte, and stode vpon the mount
of the cyte towarde the east: note But the
wynde toke me vp, and in a visyon (whych
came by the sprete of God) it brought me agayne
into Caldea amonge the presoners.
Then the visyon that I had sene vanyshed
awaye fro me. So I spake vnto the presoners,
all the wordes of the Lorde, whych he
had shewed me.
