Chap. II. note God also threatneth Moab, 4. Iuda, 6. and Israel, 9. that for ingratitude, 12. and other sinnes, they shal be brought into captiuitie.

1   Thvs sayth our Lord: Vpon three wickednesses of Moab and vpon note foure I wil not conuert him: because he hath burnt the bones of Idumea euen to ashes.

2   And I wil send fyre into Moab, and it shal deuoure the houses of Carioth: and Moab shal dye in the sound, in the noyse of the trumpet:

3   and I wil destroy the iudge out of the middes of him, and al his princes I wil kil with him, saith our Lord.

4   Thus saith our Lord: Vpon three wickednesses note of Iuda, & vpon foure I wil not conuert him: because he hath cast away the law of our Lord, and not kept his commandments: for their idols haue deceiued them, after which their fathers went.

5   And I wil send fire into Iuda, and it shal deuoure the houses of Ierusalem.

6   Thus saith our Lord: Vpon three wickednesses of Israel, and vpon note foure I wil not conuert him: because he hath sold the iust for siluer, and the poore for shoes.

7   Which bruise the heades of the poore vpon the dust of the earth, and decline the way of the humble: and note the sonne and his father haue gone to note a young woman, that they might violate my holie name.

8   And vpon garments layd to pledge they did lye beside euerie altar: & the wine of the condemned they dranke in the house of their God.

9   But I did cast out the Ammorrheit before their face: whose height the height of Cedars, & he strong as an oke: and I destroyed his fruite from aboue, & his rootes beneath.

10   It is I that made you come vp out of the Land of Ægypt, & I ledde you in the desert fourtie yeares, that you might possesse the Land of the Amorrheite.

11   And I raysed vp of your sonnes to be prophets & of your yongmen Nazareites, is it not so ô children of Israel, saith our Lord?

12   And you dranke wine to the Nazareites: and the prophets you commanded, saying: Prophecie not.

13   Behold I wil screake vnder you, as a wayne screaketh loden with hay.

14   And flight shal perish from the

swift, and the valient shal not obteyne his strength, and the strong shal not saue his life.

15   And he that holdeth the bow shal not stand, and the swift of his feete shal not be saued, and the rider of the horse shal not saue his life.

16   and the stoute of hart among the valients shal flee naked in that day, sayth our Lord.
