Chap. XLV.
note
Praises of Moyses, 7. Aaron, 16. and his priestlie progenie. 22. Against
whom Chore with his complices rebelling, were destroyed.
1 Moyses beloued of God, and men: whose memorie is
in benediction.
2 He made him like in the glorie of
saintes, and magnified him in the feare of his enemies. And
with his wordes he appeased monsters.
3 He glorified him in
the sight of kinges, and gaue him commandment before his
people, & shewed him his glorie.
4 In his faith and meekenes
he made him holie, and chose him of al flesh.
5 For he heard
him, and his voice, and brought him into a cloude.
6 And
he gaue him precepts note face to face, and a law of life and discipline,
to teach Iacob his testament, and Israel his iudgements.
7 He exalted Aaron his brother high, and like to himself of the
tribe of Leui.
8 He established vnto him note an euerlasting
testament, and gaue him the priesthood of the nation, and
made him blessed in glorie,
9 and he girded him about with a
girdle, and put vpon him a robe of glorie, and crowned him in
furniture of power.
10 Garments to the feete, and breches,
and an Ephod he put vpon him, and compassed him with litle
-- --
belles of gold very manie round about,
11 to geue a sound in
his going, to make sound heard in the temple for a memorie
to the children of his nation.
12 An holie robe, of gold, and
hyacinthe, and purple, a wouen worke, of a wiseman,
indued with iudgement and truth:
13 Of twisted scarlet the
worke of an artificer, with precious stones figured in the closure
of gold, and grauen by the worke of a lapidarie for a memorial,
according to the number of the tribes of Israel.
14 A
crowne of gold vpon his miter grauen with a seale of holines,
and the glorie of honour: a worke of power, and the adorned
desires of the eies.
15 There were none such so faire before
him, euen from the beginning.
16 No stranger was clothed
with them, but only his children alone, and his nephewes for
euer.
17 His sacrifices were consumed with fire euerie day.
18 Moyses filled his handes, & anoynted him with holie oile.
19 It was made vnto him for an euerlasting testament, and to
his seede as the daies of heauen, to doe the function of
priesthood, and to haue praise and to glorifie his people in his
name.
20 He chose him of al that liued, to offer sacrifice to
God, incense, and good odour, for a memorial to pacifie for
his people:
21 and he gaue them power in his preceptes, in the
testaments of his iudgementes, to teach Iacob his testimonies,
and in his law to geue light to Israel.
22 Because strangers
stood against him, and for enuie men compassed him about in
the desert, they that were with Dathan and Abiron, and the
congregation of Core in anger.
23 Our Lord God saw, and it
pleased him not, and they were consumed in the violence of
wrath.
24 He did prodigious thinges vnto them, and consumed
them in flame of fire.
25 And he added glorie to Aaron,
and gaue him an inheritance, and diuided vnto him the
first fruites of the increase of the earth.
26 He prepared them
bread in the first vnto satietie: for the sacrifices also of our
Lord they shal eate, which he gaue to him, and to his seede.
27 But note he shal not inherite the nations in the land, and he
hath no part in the nation: for himself is his portion & inheritance.
28 Phinees the sonne of Eleazar is the third in glorie,
in imitating him in the feare of our Lord:
29 and to stand in
the reuerence of the nation: in the goodnes and alacritie of
his soule he pacified God for Israel.
30 Therefore did he establish
vnto him a couenant of peace, to be the prince of the
holies, and of his nation, that the dignitie of priesthood should
-- --
be to him and to his seede for euer.
31 And the testament to
note Dauid king, the sonne of Iesse of the tribe of Iuda, and inheritance
to him and to his seede, that he might geue wisdom
into our hart to iudge his nation in iustice, that their good
thinges might not be abolished, & their glorie in their nation
he made euerlasting.
