¶ The .xii. Chapter. ¶ Of the destruccion and buyldynge agayne of Ierusalem.

A   The heuy burthen which þe; Lorde hath deuysed for Israell. Thus sayeth the Lorde note which spred the heau&ebar;s abrode, layde the foundacion of the earth note and geueth man the breath of lyfe. Beholde, I wyll make Ierusalem a cuppe of surfet, vnto all the people that are rounde about her.

-- --

noteYee, Iuda hym selfe also shalbe in the sege agaynst Ierusalem. At the same tyme wyll I make Ierusalem an heuy stone for al people, so that al soch as lyft it vp, shalbe toarne and rente, and all the people of the earth shalbe gathered together agaynst it.

B    noteIn that daye, sayeth the Lorde, I wyll make all horses abashed, &abar;d those that ryde vpon them, to be out of their wittes. I wyl op&ebar; myne eyes vpon the house of Iuda, and smyte all þe; horses of the people with blindnesse. And the princes of Iuda shall saye in their hertes. The inhabyters of Ierusalem shall geue me consolaci&obar; in the Lorde of hostes their God. In that tyme will I make þe; princes of Iuda lyke an hote burnynge ou&ebar; with wood, and lyke a cresset of fyre among the strawe: so that they shall consume all þe; people rounde aboute them, both vpon the ryght hande ∧ the left. Ierusalem also shalbe inhabyted agayne: namely, in the same place where Ierusalem standeth.

C   The Lorde shall preserue the t&ebar;tes of Iuda lyke as a fore tyme: so þt; the glory of the house of Dauid: ∧ the glory of the cytesyns of Ierusalem, shalbe but lytle regarded, in c&obar;parison of þe; glory of Iuda. In that daye shall the Lorde defende þe; cytesyns of Ierusalem: so that the weakest then amonge th&ebar; shalbe as note Dauid: and the house of Dauid shalbe lyke as Gods house, &abar;d as the Aungell of the Lorde before them.

At the same tyme will I go about to destroye all soch people as come against Ierusalem. Moreouer, vpon the house of Dauid and vpon the cytesyns of Ierusalem note will I poure out the sprete of grace ∧ c&obar;passion, so þt; note they shall loke vp&obar; me, wh&obar; they haue pearsed: ∧ they shal bewepe h&ibar; as m&ebar;mourne for their only begott&ebar; s&obar;ne: yee, ∧ be sory for him, as m&ebar; are sory for their first chyld.

D    noteThen shall there be a great mournyng at Ierusalem, note lyke as the lamentacion at Adremnon in the felde of Maggadon. And the lande shall bewayle euery kinred by th&ebar; selues. The kinred of þe; house of Dauid th&ebar; selues alone, and their wiues by th&ebar; selues: The kynred of the house of note Nathan them selues alone, and their wyues by th&ebar; selues. The kynred of the house of Leui them selues alone, and their wyues by them selues. The kynred of the house of Semei them selues alone, and their wyues by them selues. In lyke maner, all þe; other generaci&obar;s euerychone by them selues alone, and their wyues by them selues.
