Vers 2.
The floore and the wine presse shall not feede them, and the new wine shall fayle in her.
* 1.1A Confirmation of the former threatning and answere concer∣ning the punishment of GOD being not remoued from their necks. And it is taken from the effects the which the Israelites themselues shall shortly feele, and the which effects are a reuenge, and the same most righteous of the filthy whoredome and Idolatry by them committed in all corne floores, and wine presses. What then are those effects? Answere.* 1.2 Neither shall the corne nourish them, nor the wine giue vnto them drinke. For there shall be none. Both the haruest and the vintage shall deceiue them. They shall ga∣ther no fruits, but as Aggeus threatneth to those of his time, The heauens ouer them shall stay themselues from dewe, and the earth shall stay her selfe from fruit cap 1. vers. 10. And as hee sayth in the se∣cond chapter and the seuenteenth vers. When one came to an heape of twenty measures, there were but tenne: when one came to the wine

presse to drawe out fifty vessels out of the presse, there were but twenty. Or if they gather any fruits, yet shall they not bee fed with them, either for that those fruits shall putrifie and rotte, or els the vertue or power of nourishing shall be taken from the meates by God, as is like wise threatned by God in Aggeus cap. 1. vers. 6. Ye haue sowen much (saith he) but bring in little: ye eate, but haue not enough: ye drink▪ but ye are not filled: ye cloth you, but ye be not warm: and he that earneth wages putteth the wages into a broken bagge. And to this effect God threatneth them by Moses Deut. 28 vers. 38. Thou shalt carrie much corne into the field, and shalt gather but little in: for the grashoppers shall destoy it. Or finally, it shall be taken away by the enemies, as was threatned before cap. 8. vers. 7. So then God doth chastice vs after diuers manners.
