Chap. II.
note
The captiuitie of the two tribes, their relaxation, Christ wil assuredly come
though not quickly. 5. Their afflicters (the Chaldees) shal be destroyed;
18. and al other idolaters.
1 I note wil stand vpon my watch, and fixe my steppe vpon the
munition: and I wil behold, to see what may be sayd to me,
and what I may answer to him that rebuketh me.
2 And our
Lord answered me, & sayd: Write the vision, & make it playne
vpon tables: that he which runneth may read it ouer.
3 Because
as yet the vision is far, and it shal appeare at the end, and shal
not lye: if he shal make tariance, expect him: because coming
he wil come, & he note wil not slacke.
4 Behold he that is incredulous,
his soule shal not be right in him self: but note the iust shal
liue in his faith.
5 And as wine deceiueth him that drinketh:
so shal the prowd man be, and he shal not be beautified: who
as it were hel, hath dilated his soule: and himself as death, and
he is not filled: and he hath gathered together vnto him al nations,
and hath heaped together vnto him al peoples.
6 Why,
shal not al these take vp a parable vpon him, and a speach of
obscure sayings of him: and it be sayd: Wo to him, that multiplieth
thinges not his owne? how long also doth he agrauat
-- --
against himself thicke clay?
7 Why, shal they not rise sodenly,
that shal bite thee: and they that teare thee, be raysed vp,
and thou be for a spoile to them?
8 Because thou hast spoiled
manie nations, al that shal be left of the peoples shal spoile
thee: for the bloud note of man, and the iniquitie of the land,
of the citie, and of al that dwel therein.
9 Wo to him that
gathereth together naughtie auarice to his house, that his nest
may be on high, and thinketh he is deliuered out of the hand
of euil.
10 Thou note hast thought confusion to thy house, thou
hast cut in sunder manie peoples, and thy soule hath sinned.
11 Because the stone out of the wal shal crie: and the timber,
that is betwen the iunctures of the buildings, shal answer.
12 Wo to him that buildeth a citie in blouds, and prepareth a
citie in iniquitie.
13 Why, are not these thinges from the Lord
of hosts? For the peoples shal labour in much fire: and the nations
in vaine, and they shal faynt.
14 Because the earth shal be
replenished, that they may know the glorie of our Lord, as
waters couering the sea.
15 Wo to him that geueth drinke to
his freind, putting in his gal, and making drunke, that he may
behold his nakednes.
16 Thou art filled with ignominie for
glorie, drinke thou also, and be fast a sleepe: the cuppe of the
right hand of our Lord shal compasse thee, and the vomite of
ignominie vpon thy glorie.
17 Because the iniquitie of Libanus
shal couer thee, and the wasting of the beasts shal terrifie them
for the blouds of men, and the iniquitie of the land, and of the
citie, and of al that dwel therein.
18 What profiteth the thing
engrauen, that the forger therof hath grauen it, a molten, and
a false image? because the forger therof hath hoped in his forgerie,
to make dumme idols.
19 Wo vnto him that sayth to
wood: Awake: Arise, to the dumme stone. Why, can it teach?
Behold, this same is couered with gold, and siluer: and there is
no spirit in the bowels therof.
20 But our Lord is in his holie
temple: let al the earth be silent at his presence.
