Chap. XLIX.
note
Praises of Iosias, who (like to Dauid, and Ezechias) tooke away occasions
of idolatrie. 8. Praises of Ieremie, 10. Ezechiel, 12. and the twelue Prophetes.
13. Also of Zorobabel, Iesus the sonne of Iosedech, Nehemias,
Enoch, Ioseph, Seth, Sem, and Adam.
1 The memorie of Iosias is according to the confection of
perfume made by the worke of an apothecarie.
2 His
remembrance shal be sweete as honie in euerie mouth, and as
musick in banket of wine.
3 He was directed by God into the
repentance of the nation, and he tooke away the abominations
of impietie.
4 And he gouerned his hart toward our
Lord, and in the daies of sinners he strengthened pietie.
-- --
5 Except Dauid, and Ezechias, and Iosias, note al committed
sinne.
6 For the kinges of Iuda forsooke the law of the
Highest, and contemned the feare of God.
7 For they gaue
their kingdom to others, and their glorie to a strange nation.
8 They burnt the chosen citie of holines, and made the
waies thereof desolate in the hand of Ieremie.
9 For they euil
intreated him, who was consecrated a prophet from his mothers
wombe, to ouerthrow, and pluck vp, and destroy, and
to build againe, and renewe.
10 Ezechiel who saw the sight
of glorie, which he shewed him in the chariote of Cherubs.
11 For he made mention of the enemies in rayne, to doe good
vnto them, that haue shewed right waies.
12 And the bones
of the twelue prophets wel may they spring out of their
place: for they haue strengthened Iacob, and haue redeemed
themselues in the fidelitie of power.
13 How may we magnifie
Zorobabel, for he also was as a signet on the right
hand,
14 and so Iesus the sonne of Iosedec? who in their daies
built the house, and erected the holie temple to our Lord,
prepared to euerlasting glorie.
15 And Nehemias in the memorie
of much time, who erected vs our walles ouerthrowen,
and set vp the gates and lockes, who built our houses.
16 No
man hath bene borne in the earth like to Henoch: for note he
also was taken vp from the earth.
17 Neither as Ioseph who was
a man borne prince of his bretheren, the stay of the nation, the
ruler of his bretheren, the stay of the people:
18 and his bones
were visited, and after death note they prophecied.
19 Seth, and
Sem obteyned glorie with men: and aboue euerie soule, in
the beginning Adam.
