Chap. XXV.
note
The Prophet getteth thankes to God for his meruelous workes, 7. and great
benefites, in lightning manie with faith, washing away sinnes, and geuing
grace, and eternal glorie.
1 O Lord thou art my God, I wil exalt thee, and confesse
to thy name: because thou hast done meruelous
thinges, the old cogitations faithful, note Amen.
2 Because thou
hast brought the citie into a heape, the strong citie into ruine,
the house of strangers: that it be no citie, & that it be not built
-- --
for euer.
3 For this shal strong people prayse thee, the citie of
strong nations shal feare thee.
4 Because thou art become a
strength to the poore, a strength to the needie in his tribulation:
an hope against the whirlwinde, a shadow against the
heate. For the spirit of the strong is as a whirlwinde beating
against a wal.
5 As heare in thirst, shalt thou humble the tumult
of strangers: and as with heate vnder a burning cloude
thou shalt make the branch of the strong to wither.
6 And
the Lord of hostes shal make to note al peoples in this mount, a
feast of fat thinges, a feast of vintage, of fat thinges ful of marrow,
of vintage purified from the dregges.
7 And he shal in
this mount throw downe headlong the face of the bond, tied
together vpon al peoples, and the webbe that he hath begune
vpon al nations.
8 He shal cast death downe headlong for euer:
and our Lord God shal take away teare from al face, and the
reproch of his people he shal take away out of the whole
earth: because our Lord hath spoken it.
9 And he shal say in
that day: Loe this is our God, we haue expected him, and he
wil saue vs: this is our Lord, we haue patiently wayted for
him, we shal reioyce and be ioyful in his saluation.
10 Because
the hand of our Lord shal rest in this mount: and Moab shal
be treshed vnder him, as straw is broken with the wayne.
11 And he shal stretch forth his handes vnder him, as he that
swimmeth stretcheth forth to swimme: and he shal humble
his glorie with dashing of his handes.
12 And the munitions
of thy high walles shal fal, and be humbled, & shal be plucked
downe to the grownd euen to the dust.
