CHAP. XXXI.
1 The Prophet sheweth the cursed folly, in trusting
to Egypt, and forsaking of God. 6 He
exhorteth to conuersion. 8 Hee sheweth
the fall of Assyria.
1
Woe to them that go down
to Egypt for helpe, and
stay on horses, and trust
in charets, because they
are many; and in horsemen,
because they are very strong: but
they looke not vnto the Holy one of Israel,
neither seeke the Lord.
2
Yet he also is wise, and will bring
euill, and wil not note call backe his words:
but will arise against the house of the
euill doers, and against the helpe of
them that worke iniquitie.
3
Now the Egyptians are men and
not God, and their horses flesh and not
spirit: when the Lord shall stretch
out his hand, both he that helpeth shall
fall, and hee that is holpen shall fall
downe, and they all shall faile together.
4
For thus hath the Lord spoken
vnto me; Like as the lyon and the
yong lyon roaring on his pray, when
a multitude of shepheards is called
foorth against him, he will not be afraid
of their voice, nor abase himselfe for the
note noyse of them: so shall the Lord of
hostes come downe to fight for mount
Zion, and for the hill thereof.
5
As birds flying, so wil the Lord
of hostes defend Ierusalem, defending
also hee will deliuer it, and passing ouer,
he will preserue it.
6
¶ Turne yee vnto him from
whom the children of Israel haue deeply
reuolted.
7
For in that day euery man shall
note cast away his idoles of siluer, and note his
idoles of gold, which your owne hands
haue made vnto you for a sinne.
8
¶ Then shall the Assyrian fall
with the sword, not of a mightie man;
and the sword, not of a meane man, shal
deuoure him: but hee shall flee note from
the sword, and his young men shall be
note discomfited.
Good rulers.
9
And hee shall passe ouer to note his
strong holde for feare, and his princes
shall be afraid of the ensigne, sayth the
Lord, whose fire is in Zion, and his
fornace in Ierusalem.
