Revelation 10 Cross References - Great

¹ And I saw another myghtye angell come downe from heauen clothed wt a cloude, & the raynebowe vpon his heed. And his face as it were the sunne, & his fete as it were pyllars of fyre, ² and he had in his hande a lytell boke open, and he put his ryght fote vpon the see, & his lyfe fote on the erth. ³ And cryed wyth a lowde voyce, as when a lyon roreth. And when he had cryed, seuen thonders spake their voyces. ⁴ And when the .vii. thondres had spoken their voyces, I was about to wryte. And I herde a voyce from heauen, sayinge vnto me: seale vp those thynges whych the .vii. thondres spake, & wryte them not. ⁵ And the Angell which I sawe stonde vpon the see, & vpon the erth, lyfte vp his hande to heuen, ⁶ and sware by him that lyueth for euer more, wich created heauen, & the thynges that therin are and the see, & the thynges which therin are: that there shulde be no lenger tym ⁷ but in the dayes of the voyce of the seuenth Angell, when he shall begyn to blowe: euen the mystery of God shalbe fynysshed, as he preached by his seruauntes the prophetes. ⁸ And the voyce which I herde from heuen, spake vnto me agayne, & sayd: go & take the lytle boke which is open in the hande of the angell which standeth vpon the see, & vpon the erth. ⁹ And I went vnto the angell, & sayde to him: geue me the lytle boke, and he sayde vnto me: take it, & eate it vp, & it shall make thy belly bytter, but it shalbe in thy mouthe as swete as hony. ¹⁰ And I toke the lytle boke out of his hande, & eate it vp, & it was in my mouth as swete as hony: and as sone as I had eaten it, my belly was bytter. ¹¹ And he sayde vnto me: thou must prophesy agayne amonge the people, and nacyons, and tonges, and to many kynges.

¹¹ But my couenaunt wyl I make wt you that from henceforth euery flesshe be not roted out with the waters of a floude, neyther shall there be a floude to destroye the earth any more. ¹² And God sayde: This is the token of the couenaunt which I geue betwene me & you, and euery lyuynge creature that is with you in to perpetuall generacyons. ¹³ I haue set my bowe in the cloude, and it shalbe for a token betwene me & the erth. ¹⁴ And it shall come to passe, that whan I brynge a cloude vpon the erth, the bowe also shall be sene in the same cloude. ¹⁵ And I wyll thynke vpon my couenaunt whych is betwene me & you, & euery lyuynge creature in all fleshe: & it shall nomore come to passe, that waters make a floude to destroye all fleshe. ¹⁶ But the bowe shalbe in the same cloude, & I wyll loke vpon it, that I maye thynke vpon the euerlastynge couenaunt betwene God and euery lyuinge creature, in all flesh that is vpon erth. ¹⁷ And God sayde vnto Noah. This is the token of the couenaunt which I haue made betwene me and all flesh that is vpon erthe.

¹⁰ And Moses spake vnto Aaron: Saye vnto all the company of the children of Israel, come forth before the Lorde: for he hath heard your grudgynges.

² speake vnto Aaron thy brother, that he come not at all tymes into the holy place wythin the vayle before the mercyseate, whych is vpon the arke, that he dye not. For I will appeare in the clowde vpon the mercyseate.

² Cloudes and darcknesse are rounde aboute hym, ryghteousnesse and iudgment are the habitacyon of his seate.

³ Which layeth the beames of his chambers in the waters, & maketh the cloudes his charet, & walketh vpon the wynges of the wynde.

¹⁵ His legges are as the pylers of Marbell, set vpon sokettes of golde. His face is as Libanus, and as the bewty of the Cedre trees.

¹ The heuye burthen of Egypte: Beholde, the Lorde rydeth vpon a swyfte clowde, and shall come into Egypte, & the ydols of Egypte shall tremble at the presence of hym, & the hert of Egypte shall quake in the myddes of her.

⁹ And this is vnto me as the water of Noe: for lyke as I haue sworne that I wyll not bringe the water of Noe eny more vpon the worlde: so haue I sworne that I wyll neuer be angry with the, ner reproue the:

⁴⁴ Thou hast hyd thy selfe in a cloude, that oure prayer shuld not go thorowe.

²⁸ was lyke a raynbowe, which in a raynye daye appeareth in the cloudes. Euen so was the similytude, wherin the glorye of the Lorde appeared. When I sawe it, I fell vpon my face, and herkened vnto the voyce of hym that spake:

¹³ I sawe in a visyon by nyght, and beholde, there came one in the cloudes of heauen lyke the sonne of a man, which wente vnto the olde aged, before whom they brought him.

⁶ his body was lyke the Chrysolite stone, hys face (to loke vpon) was lyke lyghtenynge, hys eyes as the flame of fyre, hys armes and fete were lyke fayre glysterynge metall, but the voyce of his wordes was lyke the voyce of a multitude.

² and was transfygured before them and hys face dyd shyne as the sonne, and hys clothes were as whyte as the lygh

²⁷ And then shall they se the sonne of man come in a cloude with power and greate glory.

¹³ euen at myddaye. (O kyng) I sawe in the waye a lyght from heauen aboue the bryghtnes of the sonne shyne rounde about me, and them whych iorneyed wyth me.

⁷ Beholde, he cometh with cloudes, & all eyes shall se him, & they also which pearsed him. And all kynredes of the erth shall wayle. Euen so: Amen.

¹⁵ & hys fete lyke vnto brasse, as though they brent in a fornace, and his voyce as the sounde of many waters. ¹⁶ And he had in his ryghte hande .vii. starres. And out of his mouthe went a sharpe two edged swearde. And his face shone, euen as the sonne in his strength.

³ And he that sat, was to loke vpon, lyke vnto a Iasper stone and a Sardyne stone. And ther was a rayne bowe aboute the seate, in syght lyke to an Emeralde.

² And I sawe a stronge angell, which preached wt a lowde voyce: Who is worthy to open the boke, & to lose the seales therof.

¹ And after that, I sawe .iiii. angels stande on the .iiii. corners of the erth holdynge the foure wyndes of the erth, that the wynde shuld not blowe on the erth, nether on the see, nether on eny tree. ² And I sawe another angell ascende from the rysynge of the sunne, which had the seale of the lyuyng God, & he cryed wyth a loude voyce to the foure Angels (to whom power was geuen to hurte the erth & the see)

² And I sawe .vii. angelles standyng before God, & to them were geuen seuen trompettes. ³ And another angell came & stode before the aultre, hauynge a golden senser, & moch of odoures was geuen vnto him, that he shulde offre of the prayers of all saynctes vpon the golden aulter, whych was before the seate. ⁴ And the smoke of the odoures whych cam of the prayers of all saynctes, ascended vp before God out of the Angelles hande. ⁵ And the Angell toke the senser, and fylled it wyth fyre of the aulter, and caste it into the erth, and voyces were made, & thondrynges & lyghtnynges, and erthquake.

¹³ And I behelde and herde an Angell flyinge thorow the myddes of heauen, sayinge with a lowde voyce: Woo, woo, to the inhabiters of the erth, because of the voyces to come of the trompe of the thre Angels, whych were yet to blowe.

¹³ And the syxt Angell blewe, and I herde a voyce from the .iiii. corners of the golden aultre, which is before God, ¹⁴ sayinge to the syxt Angell, which had the trompe: Lose the foure Angelles, which are bounde in the grete ryuer Euphrates.

⁵ And the Angell which I sawe stonde vpon the see, & vpon the erth, lyfte vp his hande to heuen, ⁶ and sware by him that lyueth for euer more, wich created heauen, & the thynges that therin are and the see, & the thynges which therin are: that there shulde be no lenger tym

¹⁴ And I loked, and beholde a whyte clowde, and vpon the clowde one syttynge lyke vnto the sonne of man, hauyng on his heed a golden crowne, and in his hande a sharpe sykle. ¹⁵ And another angell came out of the temple, crying with a lowde voyce to hym that sate on the clowde: Thruste in thy sykle & repe, for thy tyme is come to repe, for the corne of the erth is rype.

⁸ Desyre of me, and I shall geue the, the Heythen for thyne enheritaunce, & the vtmost partes of the erthe for thy possessyon.

⁵ Thou shalt shewe vs wonderfull thynges in ryghteousnesse (O God) of our saluacion: thou that art the hope of al the endes of the earth, and of them that remayne in the broade see?

¹⁵ Thorowe me, kynges reygne: thorowe me counselars make iust lawes. ¹⁶ Thorowe me, do prynces beare rule, and all iudges of the earth execute iudgement.

¹⁹ wher thorowe the name of the Lorde myght be feared, from the rysynge of the Sunne: and hys magesty, vnto the goinge downe of the same. For he shall come as a violent waterstreame, whych the wynde of the Lorde hath moued.

⁹ So as I was lokynge vp, beholde, there was sent vnto me an hande, wherin was closed a booke: ¹⁰ and the hande opened it before me, and it was wrytten within and without full of carefull mournynges: alas, and woo

¹⁸ And Iesus came, and spake vnto them, sayinge: All power is geuen vnto me in heauen, & in erth.

²⁰ which he wrought in Christ, when he raysed him from the deed, and set him on his ryght hande in heauenly thinges, ²¹ aboue all rule, & power, & myght and dominion, and aboue euery name that is named, not in this worlde onely, but also in the worlde to come: ²² and hath put all thynges vnder his fete, and hath made him aboue all thinges the heed of the congregacyon,

¹⁰ that in the name of Iesus euery knee shulde bowe, both of thinges in heauen and thynges in erth and thynges vnder the erth, ¹¹ and that all tonges shulde confesse, that Iesus Christ is the Lorde, vnto the prayse of God the father.

¹ And I sawe in the ryght hande of hym that sat in the trone, a boke written with in & on the backsyde, sealed with seuen seales. ² And I sawe a stronge angell, which preached wt a lowde voyce: Who is worthy to open the boke, & to lose the seales therof. ³ And no man in heauen ner in erth nether vnder the erth, was able to open the boke, nether to loke theron. ⁴ And I wepte moch because no man was founde worthy to open & to reade the boke, nether to loke theron. ⁵ And one of the elders sayde vnto me wepe not: Beholde, a lyon of the trybe of Iuda, the rote of Dauid, hath obtayned to open the boke, and to lose the seuen seales therof.

¹ And I sawe, when the lambe opened one of the seales, and I herde one of the foure beastes saye, as it were the noyse of thonder: come & se:

³ And when he had opened the seconde seale. I herde the seconde beaste, saye: come and se.

⁵ And the Angell which I sawe stonde vpon the see, & vpon the erth, lyfte vp his hande to heuen,

⁸ And the voyce which I herde from heuen, spake vnto me agayne, & sayd: go & take the lytle boke which is open in the hande of the angell which standeth vpon the see, & vpon the erth. ⁹ And I went vnto the angell, & sayde to him: geue me the lytle boke, and he sayde vnto me: take it, & eate it vp, & it shall make thy belly bytter, but it shalbe in thy mouthe as swete as hony. ¹⁰ And I toke the lytle boke out of his hande, & eate it vp, & it was in my mouth as swete as hony: and as sone as I had eaten it, my belly was bytter.

¹² The kynges dysfauoure is lyke the roarynge of a lyon, but hys frendshypis lyke the dewe vpon the grasse.

²⁹ His crye is as it were of a lyon, and he roareth lyke lyons whelpes. They shall roare, & hantch vp the praye, & no man shall recouer it or get it from them.

⁴ For thus hath the Lorde spoken vnto me: Like as the lyon or lyons whelpe roareth vpon the praye that he hath gotten, and is not afrayed, though the multitude of shepherdes crye out vpon hym, nether abashed for all the heape of them. So shall the Lorde of hoostes come downe to fyght for mount Syon, and defende hys hyll.

¹³ The Lorde shall come forth as a gyaunte, and take a stomack to him lyke as a fresh man of warre. He shall roare & crie, & ouercome his enemies.

³⁰ Therfore tell them all these wordes and saye vnto them. The Lorde shall crye from aboue, and let his voyce be herde from hys holy habytacion. With a great noyse shall he crye from hys courte regall. He shall geue a great voyce, lyke the grape gatherers, and the sounde ther of shalbe hearde vnto the endes of the worlde.

¹⁶ The Lorde shall roare out of Syon, and crye out of Ierusalem, that the heauens and the earth shall quake withall. But the Lorde shalbe a defence vnto hys awne people, and a refuge for the chyldren of Israel.

² And he sayde: The Lorde shall roare oute of Sion, and shewe his voyce from Ierusalem: so that the pastures of the shepherdes shalbe in a myserable case, & the toppe of Charmel dryed vp.

⁸ When a lyon roareth, who wyll not be afrayed? Seinge then that the Lorde God him selfe speaketh, who wyll not prophecy?

⁵ And out of the seate proceded lyghtnynges, & thundrynges, & voyces, & ther were seuen lampes of fyre, burnynge before the seate, whych are the seuen spretes of God,

⁵ And the Angell toke the senser, and fylled it wyth fyre of the aulter, and caste it into the erth, and voyces were made, & thondrynges & lyghtnynges, and erthquake.

² And I herde a voyce from heuen, as the sounde of many waters, and as the voyce of a gret thoundre. And I herde the voyce of harpers harpynge with theyr harpes.

¹ And I sawe another sygne in heuen gret and meruellous, seuen Angels, hauyng the seuen laste plages, for in them is fulfylled the wrath of God.

⁷ And one of the fowre beastes gaue vnto the seuen Angels seuen golden vyalles, full of the wrath of God, whych lyueth for euermore.

²⁹ The secrettes of the Lorde oure God are opened vnto vs, and to oure chyldren for euer, that we maye do all the wordes of thys lawe.

¹ Moreouer, the lord sayd vnto me: Take the a greate leaf, & write in it, as men do wt a penne, make hastye spede to robbe, & haste to the spoyle.

¹⁶ Now laye the witnesses together & seale the lawe wt my disciples.

¹¹ And the visyon of all the prophetes is become vnto you, as the wordes of a boke that is sealed vp, which men deliuer to one that is learned, saying: Reade thou in it. And he sayth: I cannot, for it is sealed.

²⁶ And thys visyon that is shewed vnto the, is as sure as the euenynge and the mornynge. Therfore wryte thou vp thys syght, for it wylbe longe or it come to passe.

⁴ And thou O Daniel, shut vp these wordes, and seale the boke tyll the last time Many shall go aboute here and there, and then shall knowledge increase.

⁹ He answered: Go thy waye Daniel, for these wordes shall be closed vp & sealed, tyll the last tyme:

² But the Lord answered me, & sayde: Wryte the vision playnely vpon thy tables, that who so commeth by, maye rede it ³ for the vision is yet farre of for a tyme, but at the last it shal come to passe, & not fayle. And though he tary, yet wayte thou for him, for in very dede he will come, & not be slacke.

¹¹ sayinge: I am Alpha and Omega, the fyrst and the laste. That thou seyst, wryte in a boke, and sende it vnto the seuen congregacions which are in Asia, vnto Ephesus, & vnto Smyrna and vnto Pergamos, and vnto Thiatira, and vnto Sardis, & vnto Philadelphia, and vnto Laodicia.

¹ Unto the messenger of the congregacyon of Ephesus wryte: these thynges sayth he, that holdeth the seuen starres in hys ryght hande, and that walketh in the myddes of the seuen golden candelstickes. ² I knowe thy workes, and thy labour, & thy pacience, and how thou cannest not forbeare them whych are euyll: and hast examined them whych saye they are Apostles, and are not: & hast founde them lyars, ³ & hast suffred. And hast pacience: and for my names sake hast labored, and hast not faynted.

¹⁰ And he sayde vnto me: seale not the sayinges of the prophesy of this boke. For the tyme is at hande.

¹ In the begynnynge God created heauen and earthe. ² The earth was voyde and emptye: and darcknes was vpon the face of the depe: and the sprete of God moued vpon the face of the waters.

²² And Abram answered the kynge of Sodome: I haue lyfte vp my hande vnto the Lorde the hye God possessor of heauen and erth,

¹⁵ And the Angell of the Lorde cryed vnto Abraham from heauen the seconde tyme, ¹⁶ and sayde: by my selfe haue I sworne (sayth the Lorde) because thou hast done thys thynge and hast not spared thy onely sonne:

⁸ And I wyll brynge you vnto the lande concernynge the whych I dyd lyft vp my hande to geue it vnto Abraham, Isahac and Iacob, and wyll geue it vnto you for a possessyon: euen I the Lorde.

¹¹ For in syxe dayes the Lorde made heauen and erth, the see and all that in them is, and rested the seuenth daye: wherfore the Lorde blessed the Sabbath daye and halowed it.

⁴⁰ For I wyll lyfte vp myne hande to heauen, and wyll saye: I lyue euer.

⁶ Thou art Lord alone. Thou hast made heauen, & the heauen of all heauens, with all theyr hoost, the earth & all thinges that are therin, the see & all that is therin: & thou preseruest them all, and the hoost of heauen worshippeth the.

³ For the Lorde is a great God, & a great kynge aboue all goddes. ⁴ In his hande are all the corners of the earth, & the strength of the hylles is his also. ⁵ The see is hys, and he made it, & his handes prepared the drye lande. ⁶ O come, let vs worshyppe & fall downe, and knele before the Lord oure maker.

⁵ Which made heauen and earth, the see, and all that therin is, whych kepeth hys promyse for euer.

¹ Haleluiah. Prayse the euerlastynge. O prayse the Lorde of heauen, prayse hym in the heygth. ² Prayse him all ye angels of hys, prayse hym all hys hoost. ³ Prayse hym Sunne and Moone, prayse hym all ye starres and lyght. ⁴ Prayse hym all ye heauens, & ye waters that be aboue the heauens. ⁵ Let them prayse the name of the Lorde, for he commaunded, and they were created. ⁶ He hath made them fast for euer and euer, he hath geuen them a lawe, whych shall not be broken. ⁷ Prayse the Lorde vpon earth, ye dragons, and all depes.

¹⁰ But the Lorde is a true God, a lyuynge God, & an euerlastynge kynge. If he be wroth, the earth shaketh: all the Gentyles maye not abyde his indygnacyon. ¹¹ As for theyr goddes thus shall you saye to them: they are goddes, that made nether heauen ner earth therfore shall they perysh from the earth, and from all thynges vnder heauen. ¹² But (as for oure God) He made the earth wt his power, and with his wysdome doth he order the whole compasse of the worlde, with his discrecyon hath he spred out the heauens. ¹³ At his voyce the waters gather togethe in the ayre, he draweth vp the cloudes from the vttemost partes of the earth: he turneth lyghtenyng to rayne, & bryngeth forth the wyndes out of their treasures.

⁵ & tell them. Thus sayeth the Lorde God: In the daye when I chose Israel, and lyft vp myne hande vpon the sede of the house of Iacob, & shewed my selfe vnto them in the lande of Egypte: Yee, when I lyfte vp myne hande ouer them, and sayde: I am the Lorde youre God,

¹⁵ But I swore vnto them in the wyldernesse, that I wolde not brynge them in to the lande, which I gaue them: a lande that floweth with mylcke and hony, & is a pleasure of all landes:

²³ I lyft vp myne hande ouer them also in the wyldernesse, that I wolde scatre them amonge the Heathen, & strowe them amonge the nacyons,

²⁸ For after I had brought them in to the lande, that I promysed to geue them, when they sawe euery hye hyll & all the thicke trees: they made there their offrynges, & prouoked me wyth their oblacyons, makynge swete sauoures there, and powred out their drinckoffrynges.

⁴² and that ye maye knowe, that I am the Lorde, whych haue brought you into the lande of Israel: yee, into the same lande, that I swore to geue vnto youre forefathers.

⁷ therfore thus saieth the Lord God. I haue sworne, that the Gentiles which lye aboute you, shal beare their confusion them selues.

¹⁴ Parte it indyfferently vnto one as vnto another: of the which lande I swore vnto yor fathers, that it shulde fall to youre enherytaunce.

⁷ Then herde I the man wyth the lynen clothes, which stode aboue vpon the waters of the floude: when he helde vp hys ryght and left hande vnto heauen, and sware by hym whych lyueth for euer that it shall tary for a tyme, two tymes and halfe a tyme: & when the power of the holy people is clene scatred abrode, then shall all these thynges be fulfylled.

¹⁵ and sayinge: syrs why do ye this? We are mortall men like vnto you, and preache vnto you, that ye shulde turne from these vanyties vnto the lyuinge God, which made heauen and erth and the see and all thynges that are ther in:

²³ For as I passed by, and behelde the maner how ye worshyp youre goddes, I founde an aulter wherin was writen: vnto the vnknowen God. Whom ye then ignorantly worshyppe, hym shew I vnto you.

²⁰ For hys inuisyble thinges (that is to saye hys eternall power ad godhed) are sene, for as moch as they are vnderstande by the workes from the creacyon of the worlde: So that they are wythout excuse

¹³ For when God made promes to Abraham because he had none greater to sweare by he sware by him selfe,

¹⁸ & and am a lyue, and was deed. And beholde I am a lyue for euermore & haue the keyes of hell & of deeth.

⁹ And when those beastes gaue glory and honour & thankes to hym that sate on the seate, (which lyueth for euer & euer)

¹¹ thou arte worthy o Lord to receaue glory, & honoure, and power, for thou hast created all thynges, & for thy willes sake they are, & were created.

² and he had in his hande a lytell boke open, and he put his ryght fote vpon the see, & his lyfe fote on the erth.

⁷ saying wt a lowde voyce: Feare God, & geue honour to hym, for the houre of his iudgement is come: and worshyppe him, that made heauen & erth, & the see, & fountaines of water.

¹⁷ And the seuenth Angell powred out hys vyall into the ayre. And ther cam a greate voyce out of heauen from the seate, saying, it is done.

⁷ Nowe doth the Lorde God no maner of thinge, but he telleth his secrete before vnto hys seruauntes the prophetes.

⁴⁴ And he sayde vnto them. These are the wordes whych I spake vnto you, whyll I was yet with you: that all must nedes be fulfylled, whych were wrytten of me in the lawe of Moses and in the Prophetes, and in the Psalmes. ⁴⁵ Then opened he theyr wyttes, that they myght vnderstand the scryptures, ⁴⁶ and sayde vnto them: Thus is it wrytten, and thus it behoued Christ to suffre, and to ryse agayne from deeth the thyrde daye, ⁴⁷ & that repentaunce and remyssyon of synnes shulde be preached in hys name amonge all nacyons, and must begynne at Ierusalem.

²¹ which must receaue heauen vntyll the tyme that all thynges, which God hath spoken by the mouth of all hys holy Prophetes sence the worlde began, be restored agayne.

²⁵ I wolde not that this secrete shulde be hyd from you my brethren (lest ye shuld be wyse in youre awne consaytes) that partly blyndnes is happened in Israell, vntyll the fulnes of the gentyls be come in:

²⁵ To him that is of power to stablisshe you, according to my Gospell, & preaching of Iesus Christ in vtterynge of the mistery whych was kept secret sence the worlde beganne,

³ For by reuelacion shewed he the mistery vnto me, as I wrote afore in feawe wordes ⁴ wherby when ye reade, ye maye vnderstand my knowledge in the mistery of Christ, ⁵ which mistery in tymes passed was not opened vnto the sonnes of men, as it is nowe declared vnto hys holy Apostles and Prophetes by the sprete: ⁶ that the Gentyls shulde be inheritours also, and of the same body, and partetakers of hys promes in Christ, by the meanes of the Gospell, ⁷ wherof I am made a mynyster, accordinge to the gyfte of the grace of God which is geuen vnto me after the workynge of hys power. ⁸ Unto me the least of all saynctes is this grace geuen, that I shulde preache amonge the Gentyls the vnsearcheable riches of Christ ⁹ and to make all men se, what the felyshyppe of the mystery is, which from the begynnynge of the worlde hath bene hyd in God which made all thinges thorow Iesus Christ:

¹⁵ And the seuenth Angell blewe, & ther were made greate voyces in heauen, sayinge: the kyngdoms of this worlde are oure lordes, and his Christes, & he shall raygne for euermore. ¹⁶ And the .xxiiii. elders, whych syt before God on their seates, fell vpon their faces, & worshypped God, ¹⁷ sayinge: we geue the thankes O Lord God almyghtye: whych arte & wast, & arte to come, for thou haste receaued thy great myght, and hast raygned. ¹⁸ And the nacyons were angry, and thy wrath is come, & the tyme of the deed that they shuld be iudged and that thou shuldest geue rewarde vnto thy seruauntes the Prophetes and Saynctes, & to them that feare thy name small & great & shuldest destroye them, which destroye the erth.

²¹ Yee, and thyne care shall heare the talkynge of hym that doeth speake behynde the. Thys is the waye, walke ye in it. Turne not aside nether to the ryght hande ner to the lyft.

⁴ And when the .vii. thondres had spoken their voyces, I was about to wryte. And I herde a voyce from heauen, sayinge vnto me: seale vp those thynges whych the .vii. thondres spake, & wryte them not. ⁵ And the Angell which I sawe stonde vpon the see, & vpon the erth, lyfte vp his hande to heuen,

¹² I will not forsake the commaundement of his lippes, but loke what he charged me with his mouth, that haue I shutt vp in my herte.

¹⁶ When I had founde thy wordes, I dyd eate them vp gredely: they haue made my herte ioyfull & glad. For thy name was called vpon me, O Lorde God of Hostes.

⁸ Therfore, thou sonne of man, obey thou all thynges that I saye vnto the, & be not thou styfnecked, lyke as they are a styfnecked houshold. Open thy mouth, and eate that I geue the.

¹ After thys, sayde he vnto me: Thou sonne of man, eate that, whatsoeuer it be: yee eate that booke, and go thy waye, and speake vnto the chyldren of Israel: ² So I opened my mouth, and he gaue me the booke for to eate, ³ and sayde vnto me. Thou sonne of man, thy bely shall eate, and thy bowels shalbe fylled with the booke, that I geue the. Then dyd I eate the boke, and it was in my mouth sweter then hony.

¹⁴ Nowe when the sprete toke me vp, and caryed me awaye, I wente wyth an heuy & a sorowfull mynde, but the hande of the Lorde comforted me ryght soone.

⁶ for which thynges sake the wrath of God vseth to come on the disobedyent chyldren

¹⁰ More to be desyred are they then golde, yee then moche fyne golde: sweter also then hony, and the hony combe.

³⁴ And so shall my wordes please him: my ioye shalbe in the Lorde.

¹⁰³ O how swete are thy wordes vnto my throte? Yee sweter than hony vnto my mouth.

²⁴ Fayre wordes are an hony combe, a refreshynge of the mynde, & health of the bones.

¹⁵ For thus hath the Lorde God of Israel spoken vnto me: Take this wyne cuppe of indignacion fro my hande, that thou mayest cause all the people, to whom I send the, for to dryncke of it: ¹⁶ that when they haue droncken therof, they maye be mad, & out of their wyttes, when the swearde commeth, that I wyll sende amonge them. ¹⁷ Then toke I the cuppe from the Lordes hande, and made all people to dryncke therof, vnto whome the Lorde had sent me. ¹⁸ But fyrst the cytie of Ierusalem, & all the cyties of Iuda, their kynges and prynces, to make them desolate, wast, despysed, and hyssed at, and cursed, accordynge as it is come to passe this daye. ¹⁹ Yee, and Pharao the kinge of Egypte, his seruauntes, his princes and his people all together one wyth anoth ²⁰ & all kynges of the lande of Hus, all kynges of the Philistines lande, Ascalon, Azah, Accaron and the remnaunt of Asdod, ²¹ the Edomites, the Moabites and the Ammonites ²² al the kynges of Tirus & Sidon: the kinges of the Iles that are beyonde the see: ²³ Dedan, Thema, Buz & all them that dwell in the vttermost partes of the worlde: ²⁴ all the kinges of Araby and (generally) all the kynges that dwel in the deserte: ²⁵ al the kinges of Zamri, al the kynges of Elam, all the kinges of the Medees, ²⁶ all kynges towarde the North, whether they be farre or nye, euery one agaynst his neyghbours: Yee, and all the kyngdomes that are vpon the whole earth.
