1PVt of thy mourning clothes,ô Ierusalem and thine affliction, and decke thee with the worshippe and honour, that cometh vnto thee from God, for euermore. 2Put on the garment of righteousnes, that cometh from God,and set a crowne vpon thine head of the glorie of the Euerlasting. 3For God wil declare thy brightnes to euerie countrey vnder the heauen. 4And God wil name thee by this name for euer, The Peace of righteousnes, and the glorie of the worship of God. 5Arise,ô Ierusalem, & stand vpon hie, and loke about thee towarde the East, and beholde thy children gathered from the East vnto the West by the worde of the Holie one, reioycing in the remembrance of God. 6For thei departed from thee on foote,and were led away of their enemies: but God wil bring them againe vnto thee, exalted in glorie, as children of the kingdome. 7For God hathe determined to bring downe euerie high mountaine, and the long enduring rockes, and to fil the valleys, to make the grounde plaine, that Israel may walke safely vnto the honour of God. 8The woods and all swete smelling trees shal ouershadowe Israel at the commandement of God. 9For God shal bring Israel with ioye in the light of his maiestie, with the mercie and righteousnes that cometh of him.
