Reuelatio Dei The reuelation of God, and his great propheatie: which God now; in the last daye; hath shewed vnto his elect. Set-fourth by HN, and by him pervsed anew and more distinctlie declared. Translated out of Base-almayne.

The XXII. Chap.

AFter that / God spake. and saide: I [ A] will vtter-fourth my Declaratiō {reversed ;}to prooue my Title right; with good Certificatiō and cleere Vnderstandinge / before your No∣blenes {reversed ;}yee honourable Lordes; vprightlie and ac∣cording to the Trueth.

2. Beholde: I God /a 1.1 am onlie God.b 1.2 I was* 1.3 from in Eternitie / without beginninge. I am con∣tinuallie present / c 1.4 also alwayes to-com or appee∣ringe: and shall remaine without ende {reversed ;}in my hea∣uenlie Mansion and Glorious-dignitie; euerlast∣inglie. Such-like is also my Beeinge / which is an eternall Life with mee.

3. Thissame Life of myne / d 1.5 is the true Light. Thissame Light of myne / is my true Woorde ؛my only begotten Sonne{punctel} which floweth-fourth from Mee / to the Peace and Saluation of Men.

Which Woorde of myne / was also begotten of Mee eauen from the Beginninge / e 1.6 when-as I made through thesame / Heauen and Earth / with all their Ornamentes. Whosoeuer is in thesame Woorde / and the Woorde in him / hee hath my true Light: and inheriteth {reversed ;}in thesame Light;f 1.7 my Rest and Peace / and my euerlastinge Life.

[ B] 4. Yet farder / to a more-inlardginge of this my Declaration: I God myself {reversed ;}g 1.8 which am onlie the Lorde; haue also out of Myself {reversed ;}as out of an vn∣chaungeable Light; brought-fourth Dayes or Lightes / to seuerall Seruices or Offices / on the Earth / and caused thosesame / h 1.9 out of y^• Eaueninges and Morninges / for to be or to appeere / on the Earth: also {reversed ;}in my Light; I foresawe it-all / what ther was needfull in euery-behalf: and made all the∣same myself / to a good Ordinaunce.

5. Also I foresawe the Man / to make him to myne Imaige: and euenso {reversed ;}to an Imaige of God; madei 1.10 I the Man / To-thend that thesame / tho∣rough the Light of my Wisdom or Vnderstan∣dinge (k 1.11 which I haue begotten and brought vnto the Man {reversed ;}out of his Life of my Life; to an Healp for hym) shoulde gouerne all that which was brought-fourth or created through my Woorde / well and vprightlie·l 1.12 and euenso in my Beeinge / haue the Dominion / ouer the created Thinges on the Earth.

6. Beholde: All this wasm 1.13 made and orday∣ned in such-sort / through my Light / Woorde / and Wisdom. Who is-ther then that may be a God /

besidesn 1.14 I myself? Or where is-ther an other God / that can be like Mee / in my Light and Wis∣dom / and in my Woorkes?

7. Therfore I affirme heere now for Right / that I am only God. and that also it-all what∣soeuer is in Heauen and on Earth / ought to submit itself and be obedient vnto Mee / in my Woorde. Foro 1.15 it is all / my Proprietee or Very-owne.

8. AFter-that / Searching-prouidēce spake. [ C] and saide: It is true: God hath made all Thinges {reversed ;}which Hee hath made;p 1.16 through his Woorde: but-yet not without Mee. For I my∣self haue ben assuredlie (life as God himself hath also heere affirmed) in all his Woorkes / the Pro∣uidence of thesame:q 1.17 and haue foreseene it all vnto God / ereuer that hee made thesame / To-thend that Hee should make it all euenso / out of my Wisdom.

9. For I myself / was Gods Eye / or the pro∣uident Cleernes of his Light:r 1.18 Wher-through Hee sawe-into the vpright Fourme of all Thinges / ereuer that hee made thesame. And yet farder / to a more Certentie or Confirmation of my Right.

10. I myself haue also first foreseene the Man vnto God / euen-like as Hee made thesame: In like sort also / the Healp of the Man: insomuch / that Gods 1.19 made it-all / euen-like as I ؛Prouidence{punctel} foresawe it-all vnto Him. For God coulde do no∣thing without Mee / because I was y^e Sight؛the Highest and Pretioust{punctel} of the Bodye of God. For-that-cause I am also the Lorde / or a God, euen-like as God himself.
