TVrne Israel vnto the lorde thy God:* 1.1 For thou art fallen for thy wyckednes¦ses sake. Take wordes with you and turne vnto the lorde. And saye vnto him: re∣myt all wyckednes and geue thynges / and we will paye the openly that we have promy¦sed with oure lyppes. Assur shall not saue vs / nether will we ryde on horsses: nether will we
saye to ye workes of oure awne handes / ye are oure Godes / for thou hast compassion on the frendlesse. I will heale their obedience & will love thē of myne awne accorde: for my wrath is ceased from them. I wilbe as dew to Isra∣el / & he shall florisshe as a lylee / & stretch oute his rotes as Libanon. His braūches shall run¦ne oute / & as an olive tree shall his glorie be / & his savoure as Libanō. They that shall tur¦ne & syt in his shadow / shall lyve with corne / & florisshe as vynes. His renoune shalbe as the wyne of Libanon. Ephraim / what have ye anye moare to do with ydoles? I have hea∣led him and loked on him. I wilbe as a great fyrre tre / and of me shall thy frute be founde. Who is wyse to vnderstonde these thinges & hath wyt to perceave them? For the wayes of the Lorde are strayght / and the righteous shall walke in them: but the wycked shall stomble in them.
