Chap. XXXIIII.
A prophecie of the destruction of the whole world, at the day of Iudgement,
5. and in particular of Idumea, 9. & Ierusalem, as figures therof.
1 Come note neere ye Gentiles, and heare, and ye note peoples
attend let the earth heare, & the fulnes therof, the round
world, and euerie spring therof.
2 Because the indignation of
our Lord is vpon al Gentiles, and furie vpon al their hostes: he
hath killed them, & geuen them into slaughter.
3 Their slaine
shal be cast forth, and out of their carcasses shal rise a stinche:
the mountaines shal melt with their bloud.
4 And al the host
of the heauens shal melt away, and the heauens shal be folded
together as a booke: and al their host shal fal away as the leafe
falleth from the vine, and from the figge tree.
5 Because my
sword is inebriated in heauen: behold it shal descend vpon
Idumæa, and vpon the peoples of my slaughter to iudgement.
-- --
6 The sword of our Lord is filled with bloud, it is fatted of the
bloud of lambes and buckgoates, of the bloud of rammes ful
of marow: for the victime of our Lord is in note Bosra, & a great
slaughter in the land of Edom.
7 And the vnicornes shal come
downe with them, and the bulles with the mightie: their land
shal be drunke with bloud, & their ground with the fatnes
of fatte ones.
8 Because it is the day of the reuenge of our
Lord, the yeare of retributions of the iudgement note of Sion.
9 And the torrents therof shal be turned into pitch, and the
ground therof into brimstone: & the land therof shal be into
burning pitch.
10 Night and day it shal not be quenched, the
smoke therof shal goe vp for euer: from generation vnto
generation it shal be desolate, there shal none passe by it world
without end.
11 The onocrotalus, and hedgehog shal possesse
it: & the ibis, and the rauen shal dwel in it: and a measure shal
be stretched out vpon it, to bring it to nothing, and a plumme
line vnto desolation.
12 The nobles therof shal not be there:
they shal cal rather vpon the king, and al the princes therof
shal be as nothing.
13 And thornes and nettles shal grow vp
in the houses therof, and the thisle in the munitions therof:
and it shal be the couche of dragons, and the pasture of
ostriches.
14 And spirites shal meete the onocentaurus, and
the satyr shal crie one to the other, there hath the lamia lien,
and found her self rest.
15 There hath the hedgehog had an
hole, and brought vp whelpes, and digged round about, and
cherished them in the shadow therof: thither are the kites
gathered together, one to an other.
16 Searche ye diligently
in the booke of our Lord, and read: one of them hath not
wanted, one hath not sought for the other, because that which
procedeth out of my mouth, he hath commanded, and his
spirit the same hath gathered them.
17 And he hath cast them
a lot, and his hand hath diuided it vnto them by measure:
they shal possesse it for euer, in generation & generation they
shal dwel therein.
