Chap. III
note
The iust contemned by the wicked, and proued by tentations are happie. 10.
and the wicked vnhappie. 12. Chastitie shal be rewarded, & adulterous
generations shal not prosper.
1 Bvt note the soules of the iust are in the hand of God, and
the torment of death shal not touch them.
2 noteThey semed
in the eies of the vnwise to die: and their decease was
counted affliction:
3 and that which with vs is the way, is
destruction: but they are in peace.
4 And though before men
they suffered torments, their hope is ful of immortalitie.
5 Vexed in few thinges, in many they shal be wel disposed of:
because God hath tempted them, and hath found them worthie
of him selfe.
6 As gold in the furnace he hath proued
them, and as an host of holocaust he hath receiued them, and
in time there shal be respect of them.
7 The iust shal shine,
and as sparkes in a place of reedes they shal runne abrode.
8 They note shal iudge nations, & haue dominion ouer peoples,
and their Lord shal reigne for euer.
9 They that trust in him,
shal vnderstand truth: and the faithful in loue shal rest in him:
because rest and peace is to his elect.
10 But the impious according
to the thinges which they haue thought, shal haue correption:
which haue neglected the iust, & haue reuolted from
our Lord.
11 For he that reiecteth wisdom, and discipline, is
vnhappie: and their hope is vaine, and labours without fruite
and their workes vnprofitable.
12 Their note wiues are sensles,
and their children most wicked.
13 Cursed is their creature:
because happie is the barren woman: and the vndefiled,
which hath not knowen bed in sinne, she shal haue fruite in
visitation of holie soules:
14 and note the eunuch, that hath not
wrought iniquitie with his hands, nor thought most wicked
things against God: for the chosen gift of fayth shal be geuen
to him, and a most acceptable lot in the temple of God.
15 For
of good labour there is glorious fruite, and the roote of
wisdom which falleth not.
16 But the children of adulterers
shal be in consummation, and the sede of the vnlawful bed
-- --
shal be destroyed.
17 And if certes they be of long life, they
shal be reputed for nothing, & their last oldage shal be without
honour.
18 And if they dye quickly they shal haue no
hope, non speach of comfort in the day of acknowledging
19 For of a wicked nation the endes are cruel
