Chap. II. Vnder the name of Ierusalem, he prophecieth the progresse of the Church of Christ: 6. by the conuersion of some Iewes, 8. and manie Gentiles.

1   And I lifted vp mine eyes, and saw: and loe a man, and in his hand a corde of measurers.

2   And I sayd: Whither goest thou? And he sayd to me: To measure note Ierusalem, and to see how great the breadth therof is, and how great the length therof.

3   And behold the Angel that spake in me, came forth, and an other Angel went out to meete him.

4   And he sayd to him: Runne, speake to this yongman saying: Without wal shal Ierusalem be inhabited for the multitude of men, and of beasts in the middes therof.

5   And I wil be to it, sayth our Lord, a wal of fire round about: and I wil be in glorie in the middes therof.

6   O note flee ye out of the land of the North, saith our Lord, because into the foure windes of heauen haue I dispersed you, sayth our Lord.

7   O note Sion, flee thou that dwellest with the daughter of Babylon:

8   because thus sayth the Lord of hosts: After glorie he sent me to the nations, that

-- --

haue spoiled you: for he that shal touch you, toucheth the apple of myne eye:

9   because loe I lift vp my hand vpon them, and they shal be a praye to those that serued them: and you shal know that the Lord of hosts sent me.

10   Prayse, and reioyce รด daughter of Sion: because loe I come, and wil dwel in the middes of thee, sayth our Lord.

11   And manie nations shal be ioyned to our Lord in that day, and they shal be my people, and I wil dwel in the middes of thee: and thou shal know that the Lord of hosts hath sent me to thee.

12   And our Lord wil possesse Iuda his portion in the sanctified land: and he wil yet choose Ierusalem.

13   Let al flesh be silent at the presence of our Lord: because he is risen vp out of his holie habitation.
