1.Herken vnto me / ye that folowe ryghteousnes and seke the lorde. Looke vnto the rocke ye were cut oute / and to the caue and pit ye were digged oute. Look vn to Abraham youre father and vnto Sara that bare you: how I called him onlye / and blessed him and multiplied him. For the lorde hath compassion on Sion and hath compassion on all that is decayed therin / and will make hir wildernes as paradise / and hir deserte as the garden of the lorde. Ioye and gladnes shalbe founde therin / with thankesgeuynge and the voyce of prayse. Herken vnto me my people / & turne youre eares to me my folke. Ther shall a lawe go oute from me / and my iudgement will I stablishe to be a light vnto nacions. My ryghteousnes is nye / and my salvacyon
But my ryghteousnes shall contynew ever / and my saluacyon from generacion to generacion.
Thus sayth the lorde: I will returne to Syon and will dwell in the myddle of 2. Ierusalem. And Ierusalem shalbe called the citie of trouth and the hill of the lorde Sabaoth and an holy hill. Thus sayth the lorde Sabaoth: yet there shall syt bothe olde men and olde wemen in the stretes of Ierusalem and men with staues in their handes for the multitude of dayes. And the stretes of the citie shalbe filled with boyes and wenches playenge in the stretes therof. Thus sayth the lorde zabaoth / though it seme harde in the eyes of the remmanat of this pepole / shall
This sayth the lorde: vp the walles of Ierusalem / I have set kepers which shall never cease / 3. nether by daye ner yet by nyght. And ye that stere vp the remembraunce of the lorde / se that ye pause not / nether let him have rest vntill he have prepared and made Ierusalem gloryous in the erth The lorde hath sworne by his ryght honde and by his stronge arme / that he will not geue thy corne anye moare to be eaten of thyne enemyes: and that alyentes shall not drynke thy new wyne wherfore thou hast laboured. But they that made it shall eate it and shall praye the lorde: & they that gathered it / shall drynk it in the courte of my holye temple. Go from gate to gate / and prepare the waye for the people / cast vp gravayle and make the waye hye and clense it of stones / and set vp a baner for the people. Beholde the lorde will make it knowen vnto the endes of the worlde. And saye ye vnto the daughter of Sion: beholde he that is thy sauyoure cometh and his rewarde with him and his worke before him. And they shall be called a people of holynes redemed
There shall come a rodde oute of the stocke of Iesse / and a braunche shall sprynge oute of his rote. And on him shall lyght the spirite of the lorde: 4. the spirite of wysdome and of understondynge / the spirite of councell and of strength / the spirite of knowledge and of reuerence / and it shall make him sauer of the feare of the lorde. And he shall not iudge after the syght of his eyes: nether shall rebuke after the hearynge of his eares. But he shall iudge the causes of the poore [wt] ryghteousnes / & shall rebuke with equitie for þe vmble of þe erthe. And he shall smyte þe erth with the rodde of his mouth / & with þe breth of his lyppes shall sleye the wycked. And righteousnes shalbe the gyrdle of his loynes / and faythfullness the gyrdle of his raynes.
The worde that Esaias the sonne of Amos saw in a vision / ccernynge Iuda and Ierusalem. 5.It shall come to passe in the last dayes that the mount of the house of the lorde / shalbe set in the tope of the mountaynes / and shalbe lyfte vp above the hilles: and all nacions shall resorte therto. And moche people shall go and saye: come and let vs go vp to the hill of the lorde and vnto the house of the God of Iacob: that he maye teache vs his wayes / and that we maye
This sayth the lorde. Children of Sion be glad and reioyse in the lorde youre 6. God. For he hath geuen you a teacher of righteousnes / and wyll make descende vnto you the fyrst rayne and the later / as at the beginnynge. And the barnes shalbe full of corne / and the wyne presses flowe with wyne & oyle. And I will restore you agayne with my great power which I haue sent vnto you / the yeres which the locustes and caterpillers haue deuoured. And ye shall eate & haue ynough and prayse the name of the lorde youre God / which hath wrought wonders with you. And my people shall not be in shame foreuer. And ye shall knowe that I am in the myddes of Israel / and that I am the lorde youre God / & that there is no moo. And my people shall not be in shame for euer. 7.And ye shall knowe þt I the lorde youre God / dwell in Syon my holye mounte. And Ierusalem shalbe holye / and there shall no straunger passe thorow there
8.Shoute and be glad daughter of Syon for beholde I come and dwell in the myddes of the sayth the lorde. And manye nacions shall cleaue vnto the lorde at that daye and shalbe my people. And I will dwell in the myddle of the / and thou shalt knowe that the lorde Sabaoth hath sent me vnto the. And the lorde shall inheret Iuda which is his parte in the holye grounde / and he shall chose Ierusalem yet agayne. Let all fleshe holde their peace before the lorde: for he is rysen oute of his holye temple.
He that feareth God / will do good: & he that kepeth the lawe shall obtaine 9. wisdome: and she will come agaynst him as an honorable mother: as a woman
Up and receaue lyght Ierusalem: for thy lyght is come / 10. and the glorye of the lorde is vp ouer the. For beholde / darcknes shall couer the erth / and a thick mist the nacions. But þe lorde shall ryse as the sonne ouer the / & his glorie shalbe sene vpon the And the hethen shall walke in thy lyght / and the kynges in the bryghtnes that is rysen over the. Lyfte vp thyne eyes rounde aboute and se. All these are gathered together and are come vnto the. Thy sonnes shall come from farre / and thy daughters shalbe euer by thy syde. Then thou shalt se / and shalt have plentye: thyne harte shall wonder and breake oute in ioye / when the multytude of the see are turned to the / and the armyes of the hethen are come vnto the. The aboundaunce of Camells shall couer the / and the dromadaryes of Madian and Epha shall come all of them from Saba / and brynge golde and frankynsence / & shall preache the prayse of the lorde.
I will prayse the O lorde / that though thou were angrye with me / 11. yet thyne anger is turned / and thou hast comforte me. Beholde God is my saluacion: I will be bolde therfore and not feare. For the lorde God is my strength and my prayse wherof I synge: and is become my savyoure. And ye shall drawe water in gladnes oute of the welles of saluacion. And ye shall saye in that daye: geue thankes vnto the lorde: call on his name: make his dedes knowen amonge the hethen: remember that his name is hie. Lyfte vp. Synge vnto the lorde / for he hath done excellentlye / and that is knowen thorow oute all the worlde. Crye and showte thou inhabiter of Sion / for great amonge you is the holye of Israel.
And now therfore sayth the lorde. Turne to me with all youre hartes / 12. in fastinge and lamentacy. And teare youre hartes and not youre garmentes / and turne vnto the lorde youre God. For he is full of mercie and compassion / longe yer he be angrye / and great in mercie and repenteth when he is at the poynte to punyshe. Who can tell whether the lorde will turne and have compassion and shall leave after him a blessynge? Sacrifice & drynk offerynge vnto þe lorde youre God. Blowe a trompet in Sion / proclayme
Crye with the throte and spare not. Lyfte vp thy voyce as a trompet / 13. and tell my people their offences and the house of Iacob their synnes. For me they seke daye by daye / and will knowe my wayes / as a people that doth ryghteousnes / and hath not forsaken the equitie of their God. They seke of me ryghteous iudgementes / and wyll drawe nye vnto God. Why have we fasted and thou hast not loked vpon it / have vmbled oure soules / & thou woldest not wyt it. Beholde when ye fast / ye can fynde youre awne lustes / and can call cruellye on all youre detters. Ye fast to lawe and stryve and to smyte with fyst
And the lorde sayde vnto Moses: come vp to me into the hill / and be there / 14. and I will geue the tables of stone and a lawe and commaundementes / which I have wrytten to teache them. Then Moses rose vp and his mynister Iosue / and Moses went vp into the hill of God / & sayde vnto the elders:
In those dayes came Elias to Barsabe / that is in Iuda / 15. and lefte his lad there. And he wt into the wildernes a dayes iorneye / and came & sat vnder a genaper tree / & wysshed to his soule that he myght dye / and sayed: yt is now ynough Lorde / take my soule / for I am not better then my fathers. And as he laye and slepte vnder a genaper tree: beholde / an angell touched him / and sayde thus: vp and eate. And he loked vp: and beholde there was at his heed a cake baken on the coles and a cruse of water. And he ate and dranke and layde him doune agayne. And the angell of the Lorde came agayne the seconde tyme and touched him / and sayde: vp and eate: for thou hast a great waye to goo. And he arose and ate and dranke and walked thorow the
This sayth the Lorde. The soule that sinneth / she shall dye. The sonne shall not beare parte of the fathers wyckednes. 16. The ryghteousnes of the ryght shalbe vpon him / and the wyckednes of the wycked shalbe on him. And yet the wycked if he turne from all his synnes which he dyd / and kepe all myne ordinaunces / and do iustlie and ryghteouslye / he shall live & not dye. None of the synnes that he hath done shalbe reconed vnto him: In the ryghteousnes that he hath done / he shall lyve. For I desier not the deeth of a synner (sayth the Lorde Iehovah) but rather that he shuld tourne from his waye / and lyve. And so yf a ryghteous tourne from his ryghteousnes and do wyckednes / and shall do lyke vnto all the abhominacyons whych a wycked doth / shall he lyve? No / none of those ryghteousnes that he dyd shalbe remembred. But in the wyckednes which he wrought / & in the synne which he dyd / in them shall he dye. But you wyll saye / the waye of the Lorde is not equall. Here I praye you ye house of Israel. Is not my waye equall? If a ryghteous tourne from his ryghteousnes and do wyckedlye / and dye therfore: in the wyckednes which he dyd he shall dye. And when a wycked turneth from his
In the dayes of hester / Merdocheus prayed the lorde / beynge myndfull of all his workes & sayde lorde / 17. lorde kynge allmyghtie: for in thy power all thynges are put / nether is there anye that can resist thy wyll / if thou have determyned to save Israel. Thou madest heaven and erth / and whatsoeuer is contayned within the compasse of heauen: thou art lorde of all / nether is there anye that can resist thy maiestie. Thou knowest all thynge / & wottest þt it was not of pryde or of spyte / or anye desyer of glorie þt I dyd not worship moost proude Amon: for I wolde have been readye / and that gladlye (for the sauynge of Israel) to have kyst even the steppes of his fete. But I feared least I shuld tourne þe glorye of my God vnto a man / and feared to worshyp anye man saue my God. And now lorde kynge and God of Abraham have mercie on thy people for oure enemyes are mynded to destroye vs & to brynge thyne inheritaunce vtterly to naught. Despice not þe porcion which thou delyueredest for thy selfe oute of Egipt. Heare my prayer & be mercifull vnto the parte and inheritaunce / and tourne oure sorow into Ioye: that we maye lyve and prayse thy name
At that tyme Ioseph sayde vnto his brother. Heare I praye you a dreame that I dreamed. 18.Beholde we ware makynge of sheues in the feld: and se / my sheffe arose and stode vpright / and youre sheues stode rounde aboute & made an obeysance vnto my sheffe. Then sayde his brethren vnto him what shalt thou be oure kynge / or shalt thou raynge ouer vs? And they hated him the more for his dreame and for his wordes. And he dreamed yet another dreame and tolde it his brethren. And he sayd: beholde / I dreamed yet another dreame / Me thought the sonne and the mone and eleuen starres dyd worship me. And when he had tolde it his father and his brethren / his father rebuked him and sayde vnto him: what meaneth this dreame which thou hast dreamed? shall I come and thy mother and thy brethren and fall before the on the grounde? And though his brethren hated him: yet his father kept the thynge in mynde. And when his brethren were gone to pasture their fathers shepe at Sichem / Israell sayde to Ioseph: do not thy brethren fede the shepe at Sichem? come that I maye sende þe to th And he sayde: here am I. And he sayde: go good sonne and se whether it be well with thy brethren and with the shepe / and brynge me

Which ye have defyled amonge them: that the hethen maye knowe that I am the lorde (sayth the lorde Iehouah) when I am sanctified vpon you in their fyght. And I will take you from the hethen / and will gather you oute from all landes and will brynge you oute of youre awne contre. And I will poure pure water vpon you / and ye shalbe clensed from all unclennes / and from all youre ydoles. I will clense you. and I will geue you a new harte / and will put a new spirite in you. And will take awaye that stonye harte oute of youre flesshe / & geue you a flesshie heart. And I will put my spirite in you / and will make that ye shall walke in myne ordinaunces and kepe my lawes & do them. And ye shall dwell in the lande which I gaue youre fathers. And ye shalbe my people / and I wilbe youre God.
In those dayes it chaunsed that the sonne of the wyfe of the house was sycke / & the sycknes was so great that there remayned 23. no breth in him. Then she sayde to Helias / what have I to do with the / thou m of god? Dydest thou come to me / that my synne shuld be kepte in mynde & to sle my sonne? And he sayde vnto hir / geve me thy sonne / & he tooke him oute of hir lappe and caried him vp into an hie chamber / where he him selfe dwelt / & layde him on the bed. And he called vnto the Lorde & sayde: O Lorde my god / hast thou dealt so cruelly with the wydowe with whome I dwell / as to kyll hir sonne? And he measured the chyld .iii. tymes / & called vnto the Lorde & sayde: Lorde my God / let this childes soule come agayne into him. And the Lorde herkened vnto the voyce of Helias / & this chyldes soule came agayne vnto him / and he revived. And Helias toke the chylde and caried him doune oute of the chamber into the housse / & delyvered him to his mother. And Helias sayd: se / thy sonne is alyve. Then sayde the woman to Helias: now I knowe that thou arte a man of God / & that the worde of the Lorde is trulye in thy mouth.

He was despised & cast oute of mennes cpanye / & one that had soffered sorowe / & had experynce of infirmitie: & we were as one that had hid his face from him. He was so despisable / that we estemed him not. Truly he tooke vpon him oure deseases / & bare oure sorowes. And yet we counted him plaged / & beaten & humbled of God.

Ye se also that soche gestures and ceremonies haue greater power with them / then have bare wordes onlye / to move the harte & to stere vp fayth / as do the layenge on of handes and anoyntinge with oyle. & c.
Ypocrytes / can ye decerne the face of heaven and not decerne the signe of the tymes? That is to saye: 46. they coulde iudge by the signes of the skye what wether shuld folowe: but coulde not knowe Christ by the signes of the scripture. And yet other signe myght not be geven them.
He that sayth he knoweth Christ and kepeth not his commaundemtes / ys a lyar. To knowe Christ is to beleve in Christ. Ergo he that kepeth not the commaundementes / beleveth not in Christ.
