Chap. IIII.
Diuers great sinnes of both kingdomes, 3. are the cause of great punishments
threatned, 15. yet the sinnes of Iuda are lesse excusable, because
they haue more meanes to serue God.
1 Heare the word of our Lord ye note children of Israel, because
there is iudgement to our Lord with the inhabitants
of the land: for there is no truth, and there is no mercie,
and there is note no knowlege of God in the land.
2 Cursing, and
lying, and manslaughter, and theft, and aduoutrie haue ouerflowed,
and bloud hath touched bloud.
3 For this shal the land
moorne, and euerie one shal be weakened that dwelleth in it,
in the beast of the filde, and in the foule of the heauen: yea
and the fishes of the sea shal be gathered together.
4 But yet
let not euerie man iudge: and let not a man be rebuked: for
thy people are as those, that gayne say the priest.
5 And thou
shalt fal to day, and the prophete also shal fal with thee: in the
night I made thy mother hold her peace.
6 My people haue
held their peace, because they had not knowlege: because
thou hast repelled knowlege, I wil repel thee, note that thou doe
not the function of priesthood vnto me: and thou hast forgotten
the law of thy God, I also wil forget thy children.
7 According
to the multitude of them so haue they sinned to me:
their glorie I wil change into ignominie.
8 They shal eate note the
sinnes of my people, and at their iniquitie shal lift vp their
soules.
9 And as the people, so shal the priest be: & I wil visite
their wayes vpon them, and their cogitations I wil render to
them.
10 And they shal eate and shal not be filled: they haue
fornicated, and haue not ceased: because they haue forsaken
our Lord in not obseruing.
11 Fornication, and wine, and
drunkenes take away the hart.
12 My people hath asked in
their wood, and their staffe hath declared vnto them: for note the
spirit of fornications hath deceiued them, and they haue fornicated
from their God.
13 Vpon the heads of mountaines they
did sacrifice, and vpon litle hilles they burnt incense: vnder
the oke, and the poplartree, and the terebinth, because the
shadow therof was good: therfore shal your daughters fornicate,
and your spouses shal be aduoutresses.
14 I wil not visite
vpon your daughters when they shal fornicate, and vpon your
spouses when they shal commit aduoutrie: because they them
selues conuerst with harlots, and with the effeminate they did
-- --
sacrifice, and the people not vnderstanding shal be beaten.
15 If thou fornicate note รด Israel, at the least let not Iuda offend:
and enter ye not into Galgal, and goe not vp into Bethauen,
neither sweare ye: Our Lord liueth.
16 Because Israel hath declined
as a wanton cow: now wil our Lord feede them, as a
lambe in latitude.
17 Ephraim is partaker of idols, let him alone.
18 Their banket is separated, with fornication they haue
fornicated: the protectours therof loued to bring ignominie.
19 The spirit hath bound him in his winges, and they shal be
confounded at their sacrifices.
