Isaiah - Chapter: 32


32:1	Beholde, a king shall gouerne after the rule of ryghtewesnesse, and the princes shall rule, accordyng to the balaunce of equitye.
32:2	And that man shalbe vnto men as a defence for the wynd, and as a refuge for the tempest: lyke as a riuer of water in a thirstye place, and the shadowe of a greate rocke in a drye lande.
32:3	The eyes of the seynge shall not be dym, and the cares of them that heare, shall take diligent hede.
32:4	The hert of the vnwyse shall attayne to knowledge, and the vnparfyte tong shall speake playnely and distinctlye.
32:5	Then shall the folyshe nygarde be nomore called gentle, ner the churle liberall.
32:6	But the nygarde will be nigardly minded, and his hert wyll worke euell and playe the ypocrite, and ymagyn abhominations agaynst God, to make the hongry leane, and to witholde drincke from the thirsty.
32:7	These are the perlous weapons of the churlysh, these be his shamefull councels: that he maye begyle the poore with disceatfull wordes: yee, euen there as he shulde geue sentence with the poore.
32:8	But the lyberall persone ymagineth honest thynges, & commeth vp for liberalytie vnto promotyon:
32:9	Up (ye ryche and ydell women) herken vnto my voyce. Ye careles cities, marke my wordes.
32:10	After yeares and dayes shall ye be brought in feare, O ye careles cities. For haruest shalbe out, & the grape gatherynge shall not come.
32:11	O ye rych ydell cities ye that feare no parell. Be abashed, you that lyue in aboundaunce: tremble, you that lyue careles: cast of your rayment, make your selues bare, put sacke cloth aboute you.
32:12	For as the infantes wepe when their mothers tetes ar dryed: so shall you weape for your fayre feldes and frutefull vyneyardes.
32:13	My peoples felde shall brynge thornes and thistles: and so shall it be euen in euery house of volupteousnesse and in euery citye that reioyseth.
32:14	The palaces also shalbe broken, & the greatly occupyed cityes desolate. The towres and bulwarckes shall become dennes for euermore, the pleasure of mules shalbe turned to pasture for shepe:
32:15	vnto the tyme that the sprete be powred vpon vs from aboue. Then shall the wyldernes be a frutefull felde, and the plenteous feld shalbe rekened for a wodde.
32:16	Then shall equytie dwell in the desert, and rigteousnes in a frutefull land.
32:17	And the rewarde of righteousnesse shalbe peace, and her frute rest & quietnes for euer.
32:18	And my people shall dwell in the ynnes of peace, and in sure dwellinges in safe places of conforte.
32:19	And when the hayle falleth, it shall fall in the wodde, and the citye shalbe set lowe in the valleye.
32:20	O howe happy shall ye be, when ye shall safely sowe your seed besyde all waters, and dryue thyther the fete of your oxen and asses.


32:1	Lo! the kyng schal regne in riytfulnesse, and princes schulen be souereyns in doom.
32:2	And a man schal be, as he that is hid fro wynd, and hidith hym silf fro tempest; as stremes of watris in thirst, and the schadewe of a stoon stondynge fer out in a desert lond.
32:3	The iyen of profetis schulen not dasewe, and the eeris of heereris schulen herke diligentli;
32:4	and the herte of foolis schal vndurstonde kunnyng, and the tunge of stuttynge men schal speke swiftli, and pleynli.
32:5	He that is vnwijs, schal no more be clepid prince, and a gileful man schal not be clepid the grettere.
32:6	Forsothe a fool shal speke foli thingis, and his herte schal do wickidnesse, that he performe feynyng, and speke to the Lord gilefuli; and he schal make voide the soule of an hungry man, and schal take awei drynke fro a thirsti man.
32:7	The vessels of a gileful man ben worste; for he schal make redi thouytis to leese mylde men in the word of a leesyng, whanne a pore man spak doom.
32:8	Forsothe a prince schal thenke tho thingis that ben worthi to a prince, and he schal stonde ouer duykis.
32:9	Riche wymmen, rise ye, and here my vois; douytris tristynge, perseyue ye with eeris my speche.
32:10	For whi aftir daies and a yeer, and ye that tristen schulen be disturblid; for whi vyndage is endid, gaderyng schal no more come.
32:11	Ye riche wymmen, be astonyed; ye that tristen, be disturblid; vnclothe ye you, and be ye aschamed;
32:12	girde youre leendis; weile ye on brestis, on desirable cuntrei, on the plenteuouse vyner.
32:13	Thornes and breris schulen stie on the erthe of my puple; hou myche more on alle the housis of ioie of the citee makynge ful out ioie?
32:14	For whi the hous is left, the multitude of the citee is forsakun; derknessis and gropyng ben maad on dennes, `til in to with outen ende. The ioie of wield assis is the lesewe of flockis;
32:15	til the spirit be sched out on us fro an hiy, and the desert schal be in to Chermel, and Chermel schal be arettid in to a forest.
32:16	And doom schal dwelle in wildirnesse, and riytfulnesse schal sitte in Chermel;
32:17	and the werk of riytfulnesse schal be pees, and the tilthe of riytfulnesse schal be stilnesse and sikirnesse, `til in to with outen ende.
32:18	And my puple schal sitte in the fairnesse of pees, and in the tabernaclis of trist, and in riche reste.
32:19	But hail schal be in the coming doun of the foreste, and bi lownesse the citee schal be maad low.
32:20	Blessid ben ye, that sowen on alle watris, and putten yn the foot of an oxe and of an asse.


32:1	Beholde, the kinge shal gouerne after ye rule of rightuousnes, and ye princes shal rule acordinge to the balaunce of equite.
32:2	He shalbe vnto me, as a defence for the wynde, and as a refuge for the tempest, like as a ryuer of water in a thurstie place, and ye schadowe of a greate rock in a drie lode.
32:3	The eyes of the seinge shall not be dymme, and the eares of them that heare, shal take diliget hede.
32:4	The hert of the vnwise, shal attayne to knowlege, and the vnparfite tuge shal speake planely and distinctly.
32:5	Then shal the nygarde be no more called gentle, ner the churle lyberall.
32:6	But the churle wil be churlishly mynded, and his hert wil worke euell and playe the ypocrite, and ymagyn abhominacios agaynst God, to make the hungrie leane, and to withholde drinke from the thurstie:
32:7	These are the perlous weapons of the cuvetous, these be his shameful councels: that he maye begyle the poore with disceatful workes, yee euen there as he shulde geue sentence with the poore.
32:8	But the liberall person ymagineth honest thinges, and commeth vp with honesty.
32:9	Vp (ye rich and ydle cities), harken vnto my voyce. Ye careles cities, marcke my wordes.
32:10	After yeares and dayes shal ye be brought in feare, o ye carelesse cities. For Haruest shalbe out, and the grape gatheringe shal not come.
32:11	O ye rich ydle cities, ye that feare no parell, ye shalbe abashed and remoued: when ye se the barennesse, the nakednesse and preparinge to warre.
32:12	Ye shal knock vpo youre brestes, because of the pleasaunt felde, and because of the fruteful vynyarde.
32:13	My peoples felde shal bringe thornes and thistels, for in euery house is voluptuousnes & in the cities, wilfulnes.
32:14	The palaces also shalbe broken, and the greatly occupide cities desolate. The towers and bulwerckes shalbe become dennes for euermore, the pleasure of Mules shalbe turned to pasture for shepe:
32:15	Vnto the tyme that ye sprete be poured vpon vs from aboue. Then shal the wildernesse be a fruteful felde & the plenteous felde shalbe rekened for a wodde.
32:16	Then shal equyte dwel in the deserte, and rightuousnesse in a fruteful londe.
32:17	And the rewarde of rightuousnesse shalbe peace, and hir frute rest and quietnesse for euer.
32:18	And my people shal dwel in the ynnes of peace, in my tabernacle and pleasure, where there is ynough in the all.
32:19	And whe the hale falleth, it shal fall in the wodde and in the citie.
32:20	O how happy shal ye be, whe ye shal safely sowe youre sede besyde all waters & dryue thither the fete of youre oxe & asses.
