Chap. LV.
note
God promiseth abundance of spiritual graces to the faithful, 4. that shal
beleue in Christ of al nations: 7. and sincerely serue him.
1 Al ye note that thirst come to the waters: and you that
haue no siluer, make hast, bye, & eate: come, bye without
siluer, and without any exchange wine and milke.
2 Why
bestow you siluer not for bread, & your labour not for saciety?
Hearing heare ye me, and eate that which is good, and your
-- --
soule shal be delighted in fatnes.
3 Incline your eare, & come
to me: heate, and your soule shal liue, and I wil make an
euerlasting couenant with you, the faythful mercies of Dauid.
4 Behold I haue geuen him for a witnes to the peoples, for a
prince and master to the Gentiles.
5 Behold thou shalt cal the
nation, which thou knowest not: and the nations that knew
not thee shal runne to thee, because of the Lord thy God, and
the holie one of Israel: because he hath glorified thee.
6 Seeke
ye our Lord whiles he may be found, inuocate him, whiles he
is neere.
7 noteLet the impious forsake his way, and the vniust
man his cogitations, and returne to our Lord, and he wil haue
mercie on him, and to our God: because he is bountiful to
forgeue.
8 For my cogitations are not your cogitations: nor
your wayes my wayes, sayth our Lord.
9 noteFor as the heauens
are exalted aboue the earth, so are my wayes exalted aboue
your wayes, and my cogitations aboue your cogitations.
10 And as the showre cometh downe, and the snow from
heauen, and returneth no more thither, but inebriateth the
earth, and watereth it, and maketh it to spring, and geueth
seede to the sower, and bread to him that eareth:
11 so shal my
word be, which shal proceede from my mouth: it shal not
returne to me voyde, but it shal doe what thinges soeuer I
would, and shal prosper in these thinges for which I sent it.
12 Because you shal goe forth in ioy, and in peace shal you be
conducted, the mountaines and the litle hilles shal sing prayse
before you, and al the wood of the countrie shal clap the
hand.
13 For the shrubbe, shal come vp the firre tree, and for
the nettle, shal grow the myrtle tree: and our Lord shal be
named for an euerlasting signe, that shal not be taken away.
