¶ The .ij. Chapter.
¶ Agaynst Moab, Iuda, and Israel.
A Thus sayeth the Lorde: For thre and
foure wyckednesses of note Moab, I
wyll not spare hym: &rhand; because
he brent the bones of the kynge of
Edom to asshes. Therfore, wyll I sende a
fyre into Moab, which shall c&obar;sume the palaces
of Carioth: so that Moab shall peryshe
with noyse and the sounde of a shawme. I
wyll rote out the iudge from amonge them,
∧ slaye all hys prynces with him, sayeth the
Lorde.
B Thus sayeth the Lorde: for thre and
foure wyckednesses of note Iuda, I wyll not
spare him: because he hath cast a syde þe; lawe
of the Lorde, and not kepte hys commaundementes:
for why? note they wolde nedes be
disceaued with the lyes that theyr forefathers
folowed. Therfore, will I sende a fyre
into Iuda, which shall consume the palaces
of Ierusalem.
C Thus sayeth þe; Lorde: For thre and foure
wickednesses of Israel, I will not spare him
because he hath solde the ryghteous for money,
∧ the poore for shoes. They treade vpon
poore mens heades, in the dust of the earth, ∧
croke the wayes of the meke. The sonne and
the father go to the harlot, to dishonoure my
holy name, they lye besyde euery alter vpon
clothes taken to pledge, and in the house of
theyr goddes they dryncke the wyne of the
oppressed. Yet destroyed I the note Amoryte
before them, that was as hye as the Cedre
trees, and as stronge as the okes: notwithstandynge
I destroyed his frute from aboue
and his rote from vnder:
noteAgayne, I brought you out of þe; lande
of Egypt, ∧ led you fourty yeares thorowe
the wildernes, that ye might haue the Amorites
landes in possessi&obar;. I raysed vp prophetes
amonge youre chyldren, and absteyners
amonge youre yonge men.
D Is it not so, O ye
chyldren of Israel, sayeth the Lorde? noteBut
ye gaue þe; absteyners wyne to dryncke, note yee,
ye comma&ubar;ded the prophetes sayinge. Prophecy
not. Beholde, I will crashe you in sonder,
lyke as a wayne crassheth, that is full
of sheaues: so that the swifte shall not escape
nether the stronge be able to do eny thynge:
no, the gyaunte shall not saue his awne lyfe.
The archer shall not abyde, and the swyfte
-- --
of fote shall not escape. The horsman shall
not saue his lyfe, and he that is as manly of
stomack as a gyaunte, shall in that daye be
fayne to runne his waye naked, sayeth the
Lorde.
