¶ The .v. Chapter.
¶ Ierusalem is moued vnto gladnes for the retourne
of her people, and vnder the figure therof, the churche.
A O Ierusal&ebar;, loke aboute the towarde
the east, and beholde the ioye that
commeth vnto the from God. For
lo, thy sonnes (wh&obar; thou hast forsaken,
and that were scatred abrode) come
gathered together, from the east and west,
reioysynge in the worde of the holy one, vnto
the honoure of God.
Put of thy mournynge clothes (O Ierusalem)
and thy sorow, and decke the wyth
the worshyppe and honoure, that commeth
vnto the from God, with euerlastynge glory.
God shall put the garment of righteousnesse
vpon the, and sett a crowne of euerlastynge
worshyppe vpon thine head: for vp&obar;
the wyll God declare hys bryghtnesse, that
is vnder the heauen. Yee an euerlasting name
shalbe geuen the of God, wyth peace of
ryghteousnesse, and the honoure of Goddes
feare.
B Aryse, O Ierusal&ebar;, stande vp on hye: loke
aboute the towarde the east, and beholde
thy chyldren gathered from the east, vnto
the west: whyche reioyce in the holy worde,
hauynge God in remembraunce. They departed
fr&obar; the on fote, and were led awaye
of theyr enemyes: but now shall the Lorde
brynge them caryed with honoure, as chyldren
of the kyngdom. For God is purposed
to bryng downe all stoute mountaynes, yee
and all hye rockes, to fyll the valleys, and
so to make them euen wyth the grounde:
that Israell maye be dilig&ebar;t to lyue vnto þe;
honoure of God: The woddes and all pleasaunt
trees shall ouershadow Israel, at the
-- --
commaundement of God. For hyther shall
God brynge Israel with ioyful myrth, and
in the lyght of hys magestye: with the mercy
and ryghteousnes, that commeth of him
selfe.
