Chap. VI.
note
For the auarice, and luxurie of both kingdomes, 7. they shal be caried into
captiuitie.
1 VVo to you that are rich note in Sion, and haue confidence
in the mountaine of Samaria: ye great men,
heads of the peoples, going stately into the house of Israel.
2 Passe ye into Chalane, and see, & goe ye thence into Emath
the great: and descend into Geth of the Palestines, and to al
the best kingdoms of these: if their border be larger then
your border.
3 You that are seperated vnto the euil day: and
approch to the throne of iniquitie.
4 You that sleepe in beds
of iuorie, and play the wantons in your couches: that eate the
lambe out of the flocke, and calues out of the middes of the
-- --
heard.
5 You that sing to the voice of the psalter: as Dauid
they haue thought themselues to haue the instruments of song.
6 That drinke wine in phials, and are annoynted with the best
oyntment: and they suffered nothing vpon the contrition of
Ioseph.
7 Wherfore now they shal goe in the head of them,
that goe in transmigration: and the faction of the wantons
shal be taken away.
8 The Lord God hath sworne by his soule,
saith our Lord the God of hostes: I detest the pride note of Iacob,
and I hate his houses, and I wil deliuer vp the citie with the inhabitants
therof.
9 And if there shal be left tenne men in one
house, they also shal dye.
10 And his kinsman shal take him vp,
and shal burne him, that he may carie the bones out of the
house: and he shal say to him, that is in the inner parts of the
house: Is there yet with thee?
11 And he shal answer: There is
an end. And he shal say to him: Hold thy peace, & remember
not the name of our Lord.
12 Because loe our Lord hath commanded,
and he wil strike the greater house with ruins, and the
lesser house with clefts.
13 Why note can horses runne vpon rockes,
or can there be ploughing with buffles? because you haue turned
iudgement into bitternes, and the fruite of iustice into
wormewood?
14 Which reioyce in thinges of naught: which
say: Why haue not we taken vnto vs hornes in our owne
strength?
15 For behold I wil rayse vp from you รด house of Israel,
saith our Lord the God of hostes, a nation: and they shal
destroy you from the entrance of Emath, euen to the torrent
of the desert.
