Chap. IIII. note The tenne tribes are particularly charged for oppressing the poore, 2. therfore threatned with calamities: 6. blamed for their obstinacie: 12. neuertheles al are admonished to expect Christ.

1   Heare this word ye note fatte kine, which are in the mountaines of Samaria: which doe calumnie to the needie, and breake the poore: which say to your lords: Bring, and we wil drinke.

2   Our Lord God hath sworne by his holie, that loe the dayes shal come vpon you, and they shal lift you vp on poles, and your remnant in pottes boyling hotte.

3   And by the breaches you shal goe out one against an other, & you shal be cast forth into note Armon, saith our Lord.

4    noteCome ye to Bethel, and doe impiousely: to Galgal, and multiplie preuarication: and offer in the morning your victimes, three dayes your tithes.

5   And sacrifice ye prayse of the leauened: and cal voluntarie oblations, and proclaime it: for so would you ô children of Israel, sayth our Lord God.

6   Wherupon I also note haue geuen you dulnes of the teeth in al your cities, and lacke of bread in al your places: and you haue not returned to me, sayth our Lord.

7   I also haue stayed the rayne from you, when there remayned yet three monethes vnto haruest: and I rayned vpon one citie, and vpon an other citie I rayned not: one part was rayned vpon; and the part whereupon I rayned not, withered.

8   And two and three cities came to one citie to drinke water, & were not filled: & you returned not to me, saith our Lord.

9   I stroke you with a burning winde, & with blasting, the multitude of your gardens, and al your vineyards: your oliue groues, & figgroues the eruke hath eaten: and you returned not to me, sayth our Lord.

10   I sent death vpon you in the way of Ægypt, I stroke your yongmen with the sword, euen to the captiuitie of your horses: and I made the putrefaction of your campe to come vp into your nostherels: and you returned not to me, sayth our Lord.

11   I subuerted you, as God subuerted Sodom and Gomorth, and you were made as a fyrebrand hastely caught from the burning: and you returned not to me, sayth our Lord.

12   Wherfore these thinges wil I doe to

thee Israel: but after I shal doe these thinges to thee, note be prepared to meete thy God ô Israel.

13   Because loe he that formeth the mountaines and createth the wind, and declareth his word to man, maketh the morning mist, and walketh vpon the high places of the earth: our Lord the God of host is his name.
