Chap. VIII.
note
Vnder the figure of a new name, Christs birth of a virgin is againe prophecied.
4. but first the kingdomes of Syria, and Israel shal be destroyed: and
Iuda sore afflicted: 8. yet conserued with losse of manie. 16. which is a
mysterie hidden from the Iewes. 21. Great euils hang ouer them, that
depart from the law.
1 And our Lord sayd to me: Take thee note a great booke, &
write in it with the pen of man. Take away the spoiles
spedely, quickly take prayes.
2 And I tooke to me faithful
-- --
witnesses, Vrias the priest, & Zacharias the sonne of Barachias.
3 And I went to the prophetesse, and she conceiued, and bare
a sonne. And our Lord sayd to me: Cal his name, note Hasten to
take away the spoiles: make hast to take prayes.
4 For before
the childe know to cal his father and his mother, the strength
of Damascus shal be taken away, and the spoiles of Samaria
before the king of the Assirians.
5 And our Lord added yet
to speake vnto me, saying:
6 For that note this people hath cast
away the waters of Siloe, that runne with silence, and rather
taken Rasin, and the sonne of Romelia:
7 for this cause
behold our Lord wil bring vpon them the waters of the riuer
strong and manie, the king of the Assirians, and al his glorie:
and he wil ascend ouer al their riuers, and wil flowe ouer
al their bankes.
8 And wil goe through Iuda, ouerflowing,
and passing through shal come euen to the necke. And the
stretching out of his winges shal fil the bredth of thy land ô
Emmanuel.
9 Gather ye together ô peoples, and be ouercome,
and heare al ye landes far of: Take courege, and be
ouercome, gird yourselues, & be ouercome.
10 Take counsel
and it shal be defeated: speake a word, and it shal not be
done: because God is with vs.
11 For thus sayth our Lord to
me: As in a strong arme he hath taught me, that I should not
walke in the way of this people, saying:
12 Say not: Conspiracie:
for al thinges that this people speaketh, is conspiracie:
and feare ye not their feare, neither dread ye.
13 The Lord of
hostes him sanctifie ye: be he your dread, and he your terrour.
14 And he shal be a sanctification to you. But for a stone of
offence, and for a rocke of scandal to the two houses of Israel,
for a snare and a ruine to the inhabitants of Ierusalem.
15 And
verie manie of them shal stumble and fal, and shal be broken
in peeces, and shal be snared, and taken.
16 Binde the testimonie,
seale the law in my disciples.
17 And I wil expect our
Lord, who hath hid his face from the house of Iacob, and I
wil wayte for him.
18 Behold I and my children, whom our
Lord hath geuen me for a signe, and for a wonder in Israel
from the Lord of hostes, which dwelleth in mount Sion.
19 And when they shal say to you: Aske of Pythones, and of
diuiners, which whisper in their inchantments: shal not the
people aske vision of their God, for the liuing of the dead?
20 To the law rather, and to the testimonie. And if they speake
not according to this word, they shal not haue the morning
-- --
light.
21 And he shal passe by it, shal fal, and be hungrie: and
when he shal be hungrie, he wil be angrie, and curse his king,
and his God, and note wil looke vpwards.
22 And he wil looke
note to the earth, and behold tribulation and darknes, dissolution
and distresse, and mist persecuting, and he can not flie
away from his distresse.
