Chap. III.
note
The Iewes shal be depriued of wise men, 4. and be subiect to childish, and
effeminate gouerners, 8. for their greuous sinnes. 16. The proud, curious,
and lasciuious attyre of their wemen, 24. shal be turned into ignominie,
and sorow.
1 For behold the dominatour the Lord of hostes note shal take
away from Ierusalem, and from Iuda the valiant and the
strong, al strength of bread, and al strength of water.
2 The
strong, and the man of warre, the iudge, and the prophete,
and southsayer, and the ancient.
3 The prince ouer fiftie, and
the honorable of countenance, and the counseler, and the
wise of workemasters, and the skilful of mystical speach.
4 And I wil geue children to be their princes, and the effeminate
shal rule ouer them.
5 And the people shal rush violently,
man against man, and euerie one against his neighbour:
the childe shal make tumult against the ancient, and the base
against the noble.
6 For a man shal take hold of his brother,
one of the house of his father: Thou hast a garment, be thou
our prince, and let this ruine be vnder thy hand.
7 He shal
answer in that day, saying: I am no physicion, & in my house
there is no bread, nor garment: do not appoint me prince of
the people.
8 For Ierusalem is gone to ruine, and Iuda is
fallen: because their tongue, & their inuentions were against
our Lord, to prouoke the eyes of his maiestie.
9 The knowlege
of their face hath answered them: and they haue proclaimed
their sinne as Sodom, neither haue they hid it: woe to their
-- --
soule, because euils are rendered to them.
10 Say to the iust
that it is wel, because he shal eate the fruite of his inuentions.
11 Woe to the impious vnto euil: for the reward of his handes
shal be made to him.
12 My people their exactours haue spoyled,
& wemen haue ruled ouer them. My people, note they that cal
thee blessed, the same deceiue thee, and dissipate the way
of thy steppes.
13 Our Lord standeth to iudge, and he standeth
to iudge peoples.
14 Our Lord shal come to iudgement with
the ancients of his people, and his princes: for you haue
deuoured the vineyard, and the spoile of the poore is in your
house.
15 Why do you consume my people, and grinde the
faces of the poore, sayth our Lord the God of hostes?
16 And
our Lord sayd: for that note the daughters of Sion are haughtie,
and haue walked with stretched out necke, and went with
twinglings of eies, and clapped their handes, walked on their
feete, and ietted in a set pace.
17 Our Lord shal make balde the
crowne of the daughters of Sion, and our Lord shal discouer
their haire.
18 In that day shal our Lord take away the ornament
of shoes, and litle moones.
19 And cheynes, and ouches,
and bracelettes, and bonnettes.
20 And the sheading combes,
and sloppes, and tablettes, and sweete balles, and earlets.
21 And ringes, and pearles hanging on the forehead.
22 And
changes of apparel, and shorte clokes, and the fine linen, and
nedles,
23 and loking glasses, and launes, and headbands, and
bonegraces.
24 And for swete sauour there shal be stinke, and
for a girdle a corde, and for frisled haire baldnes, and for
stomacher hairecloth.
25 Thy fayrest men also shal fal by the
sworde, and thy strong ones in battle.
26 And her gates shal
lament and moorne, and she shal sit desolate on the ground.
