Chap. LXV.
note
The gentiles shal seeke and finde Christ, 2. Whom the Iewes wil persecute,
and shal be reiected, only a few reliques reserued. 13. So the Church shal
multiplie, and abound in graces.
1 They note haue sought me that before asked not, they haue
found that sought me not. I said: Behold me, behold me,
to a Gentilitie that did not inuocate my name.
2 I haue spred
forth mine handes al the day to note an incredulous people, which
goeth in a way not good after their owne cogitations.
3 A
people that prouoke me to anger before my face alwayes:
that immolate in gardens, and sacrifice vpon brickes.
4 That
dwel in sepulchers, and sleepe in temples of idols: that eate
swines flesh, and profane potage in their vessels.
5 That say:
Depart from me, approch not to me, because thou art vncleane:
these shal be smoke in my furie, a fyre burning al the
day.
6 Behold it is written before me: I wil not hold my peace,
but I wil render and repay into their bosome
7 your iniquities,
and the iniquities of your fathers together, sayth our Lord,
that haue sacrificed vpon the mountaines, and vpon the litle
hilles haue reproched me, & I wil remeasure their first worke
in their bosome.
8 Thus faith our Lord: As if a berrie be
found in a cluster, and it be said: Destroy it not, because it is a
blessing: so wil I doe for my seruants sake, that I destroy not
the whole.
9 And I wil bring forth seede out of Iacob, & out
of Iuda a possessour of my mountaines: and mine elect shal inherite
it, and my seruants shal inhabite there.
10 And the champaine
countries shal be into foldes of flockes, and the valley
of Achor for the couche of heardes, vnto my people that haue
sought after me.
11 And you, that haue forsaken the Lord, that
haue forgotten my holie mount, that sette a table to Fortune,
and offer libaments vpon it.
12 I wil number you in the sword,
and you shal al fal by slaughter: because I called, and you haue
not answered: I spake, and you haue not heard, and you did
euil in mine eies: and you note haue chosen the thinges, that I
would not.
13 noteFor this cause thus sayth our Lord God: Behold
my seruants shal eate, and you shal be hungrie: behold,
my seruants shal drinke, and you shal be thirstie.
14 Behold my
seruants shal reioyce, and you shal be confounded: behold
my seruants shal prayse for ioyfulnes of hart: and you shal crie
for sorow of hart, and for contrition of spirit you shal howle.
-- --
15 And you shal leaue your name note for an note othe to mine elect:
and the Lord God shal kil thee, and wil cal his seruants by note an
other name.
16 In which he that is blessed vpon the earth,
shal be blessed in God amen: & he that sweareth in the earth,
shal sweare by God amen: because the former distresses are
forgotten, and because they are hid from myne eyes.
17 For behold
I create note new heauens, and a new earrh: and the former
thinges shal not be in memorie, and they shal not ascend vpon
the hart.
18 But you shal be glad and reioyce for euer in these
thinges, which I create: because loe I create Ierusalem exultation,
and the people therof ioy.
19 And I wil reioyce in Ierusalem,
and be glad in my people, and there shal no more be
heard in it the voice of weeping, and the voice of crying.
20 There shal no more be a childe of daies, and an old man that
shal not fil vp his dayes, because the childe of an hundred
yeares shal die, and the sinner of an hundred yeares shal be accurst.
21 And they shal build cities, and inhabite: and they
shal plant vineyardes, and eate the fruites therof.
22 They shal
not build, and an other shal dwel: they shal not plant, and an
other shal eate: for according to the daies of the tree, shal be
the dayes of my people, and they shal make old the workes of
their handes.
23 Myne elect shal not labour in vayne nor ingender
in conturbation: because it is the seede of the blessed of the
Lord, and their posteritie with them.
24 And it shal be, before
they cal, I wil heare: as they are yet speaking, I wil heare.
25 The
wulfe and the lambe shal feede together, the lion and the oxe
noteshal eate straw: & to the serpent dust shal be his bread: they
shal not hurt, nor kil in al my holie mountaine, sayth our Lord.
