[verse 1] And in the laste of [Om. I.] daies the hil of the [Om. CHF sec. m. RSU pr. m.] hous of the Lord schal be maad redi in the cop of hillis [the hillis N.] , and hiȝ [shal be hiȝ U sec. m.] ouer smale hillis. And puplis schulen flete [flowe U sup. ras.] to him, [verse 2] and many puplis [folk C et ceteri.] schulen haaste, and shulen seie, Come ȝe, stie we til [Om. ceteri.] to the hil of the Lord, and to the hous of God of Jacob; and he schal teche vs of hise weies, and we schulen go in hise pathis. For lawe [the lawe I.] schal [Om. S sec. m.] go out fro [shal fro S.] Syon, and the [verse 3] word of the Lord fro Jerusalem; and he schal deme bitwixe many puplis, and schal chastise stronge folkis til in to fer. And thei schulen bete togidere her swerdis in to scharis, and her speris in to picoisis; a [Om. I.] folc schal not take swerd aȝens folc, and thei schulen no more lerne [serue U sec. m.] for [Om. S.] to fiȝte. [verse 4] And a man schal sitte vndur his vyneȝerd, and vndur his fige tree; and ther schal not be that schal make aferd, for the mouth of the Lord of oostis spak. [verse 5] For alle puplis schulen go, ech man in the name of his Lord God; but we schulen walke in the name of oure Lord God in to the world, and ouer. [verse 6] In that dai, seith the Lord, Y schal gadere the haltynge, and Y schal gadere hir that [whom I.] Y castide awei, and whom Y turmentide Y schal coumforte. [verse 7] And Y schal putte the halt|ynge in to relifs, ether remenauntis, and hir that trauelide, in a strong folc. And the Lord schal regne on hem in the hil of Sion, fro this [this tyme U sec. m.] now and til in to with outen ende. [verse 8] And thou, `derk tour [cloudi, or [ether Y] derk, tour CEGHIMNPQRUXY. cloudi, or derk F.] of the [Om. CFKS.] floc of the douȝter of Sion, `til to [vnto I.] thee he schal come, and the first power schal come, the rewme of the douȝtir of Jerusalem. [verse 9] Now whi art thou drawun to|gidere with mournyng? whether a kyng is not to thee, ether thi counselour pe|rischide? for sorowe hath take thee, as a womman trauelinge of child. [verse 10] Thou douȝter of Sion, make sorewe, and haaste,

as a womman trauelynge of child; for now thou schalt go out of the citee, and schalt dwelle in cuntree [the cuntre U sec. m.] , and schalt come `til to [vnto I.] Babiloyne; there thou schalt be delyuered, there the Lord schal aȝen bie thee, fro the hond of thin enemyes. [verse 11] And now many folkis ben gaderid on thee, whiche seien, Be it stonyd, and oure iȝe biholde in to Sion. [verse 12] Forsothe thei knewen not the thouȝtis of the Lord, and vndurstoden not the councel of hym, for he gaderide hem as the [Om. GI.] hei of feeld [the feld F pr. m. GIKNQRSUX.] . [verse 13] Rise thou, douȝter of Sion, and threische, for Y schal putte thin horn of irun, and Y schal putte thi nailis brasun; and thou schalt make lesse, ether waste, many puplis, and schalt sle to the Lord the raueyns of hem, and the strengthe of hem to the Lord of al erthe. [verse 1] Now thou, douȝter of a theef, schalt be distried; thei puttiden on [Om. N.] vs bisegyng, in a ȝerde thei schulen smyte the cheke of the [Om. EGHKSPQRMNX pr. m. a U sec. m.] iuge of Israel.
