Chap. VIII.
note
God wil geue abundance of spiritual benefites to al nations by Christ: 7. to
whom shal be conuerted 13. manie Iewes, 20. but manie more Gentiles.
1 And the word of the Lord of hosts was made, saying:
2 Thus sayth the Lord of hostes: I haue bene ielous for
Sion with great zeale, and with great indignation haue I bene
ielous for it.
3 Thus sayth the Lord of hosts: note I am returned to
Sion, and I wil dwel in the middes of Ierusalem: and Ierusalem
shal be called the Citie of truth, & the Mount of the Lord of
hosts, the sanctified mount.
4 Thus sayth the Lord of hosts: As
yet shal old men dwel, and old wemen in the streets of Ierusalem:
and euerie mans stafe in his hand for multitude of yeares.
5 And the streets of the citie shal be filled with infantes, and
girles playing in the streets therof.
6 Thus sayth the Lord of
hosts: If it shal seme hard in the eyes of the remnant of this
people in those dayes: Why, shal it be hard in mine eyes, sayth
the Lord of hosts?
7 Thus sayth the Lord of hosts: Behold I
wil saue my people from the land of note the East, and from the
-- --
land of the Going downe of the sunne.
8 And I wil bring them,
and they shal dwel in the middes of Ierusalem: and they shal
be my people, and I wil be their God in truth and in iustice.
9 Thus sayth the Lord of hosts: Let your handes be strengthned,
you that heare in these dayes these words by the mouth of
the prophets in the day, that the house of the Lord of hosts was
founded, that the temple might be built.
10 For before those
dayes there was no hyre for men, neither was there hyre for
beasts, neither was there peace to the comer in, nor goer out
for tribulation: and I did let goe al men, euerie one against his
neighbour.
11 But now not according to the former dayes wil
I doe to the remnant of this people, sayth the Lord of hosts,
12 but the seede of peace shal be: the vine shal geue his fruite,
and the earth shal geue her spring, and the heauens shal geue
their dew: and I wil make the remnant of this people to possesse
al these thinges.
13 And it shal be: as you were a malediction
among the Gentils, รด house of Iuda, & house of Israel:
so wil I saue you, and you shal be a benediction: feare not, let
your handes be strengthned.
14 Because thus sayth the Lord of
hosts: As I purposed to afflict you, when your fathers had prouoked
me to wrath, sayth our Lord,
15 and I had no mercie:
so conuerting I haue meant in these dayes to doe good to the
house of Iuda, and Ierusalem: feare not.
16 These then are the
wordes, which you shal doe: Speake ye truth, euerie one with
his neighbour: truth and iudgement of peace iudge ye in your
gates.
17 And thinke ye not euerie man in your hart euil against
his frend: & lying othe loue ye not: for al these things are such
as I hate, sayth our Lord.
18 And the word of our Lord of hosts
was made to me, saying:
19 Thus sayth the Lord of hosts: The
fast note of the fourth, and the fast of the fifth, and the fast of the
seuenth, and the fast of the tenth shal be to the house of Iuda
into ioy, and gladnes, & into goodlie solemnities: truth onlie,
and peace loue ye.
20 Thus sayth the Lord of hosts, vntil peoples
come, & dwel in manie cities,
21 and the inhabitants goe,
one to an other, saying: Let vs goe, and besech the face of our
Lord, and let vs seeke the Lord of hosts: I also wil goe.
22 And
manie peoples shal come, and strong nations to seeke the Lord
of hosts in Ierusalem, & to besech the face of our Lord.
23 Thus
sayth the Lord of hosts: In those dayes, wherein ten men of
al the tongue of the Gentils shal take hold, and they shal take
hold of the skirt of a man that is a Iewe, saying: We wil goe
with you: for we haue heard that God is with you.
