CHAP. II.
The fearefull and victorious armies of God,
against Nineueh.
1
noteHe that dasheth in pieces
is come up before thy face:
keep the munition, watch
the way: make thy loines
strong: fortifie thy power
mightily.
2
noteFor the Lord hath turned away
the note excellencie of Iacob, as the
excellencie of Israel: for the emptiers
haue emptied them out, and marred
their vine branches.
3
The shield of his mightie men is
made red, the valiant men are note in scarlet:
the charets shall bee with note flaming
torches in the day of his preparation,
and the firre trees shall bee terribly
shaken.
4
The charets shall rage in the
streets, they shall iustle one against another
in the broad wayes: note they shall
seeme like torches, they shall runne like
the lightnings.
-- --
The destruction of Nineueh.
5
Hee shall recount his note worthies:
they shall stumble in their walke: they
shall make haste to the wal thereof, and
the note defence shall bee prepared.
6
The gates of the riuers shall bee
opened, and the palace shall bee note dissolued.
7
And note Huzzab shall be note led away
captiue, she shall be brought vp, and her
maids shall leade her as with the voyce
of doues, tabring vpon their breasts.
8
But Nineueh is note of olde like a
poole of water: yet they shall flee away.
Stand, stand shall they cry: but none shal
note looke backe.
9
Take ye the spoyle of siluer, take
the spoile of golde: note for there is none
end of the store, and glory out of all the
note pleasant furniture.
10
Shee is emptie, and voide, and
waste, and the note heart melteth, and the
knees smite together, and much paine
is in all loynes, and the faces of them all
gather blacknesse.
11
Where is the dwelling of the Lions,
and the feeding place of the yong
Lions? where the Lion, euen the olde
Lion walked, and the Lions whelpe,
and none made them afraid.
12
The Lion did teare in pieces
enough for his whelpes, and strangled
for his Lionesses, and filled his holes
with pray, and his dens with rauine.
13
Behold, I am against thee, saith
the Lord of hosts, and I will burne
her charets in the smoke, and the sword
shall deuoure thy yong Lions, and I
wil cut off thy pray from the earth, and
the voice of thy messengers shall no
more be heard.
