1 Heare this worde that the Lord pronounceth against you, O children of Israel, euen against the whole familie which I brought vp fro the land of Egypt, saying, 2 You onely haue I knowen of all the families of the earth: therefore I will visite you for all your iniquities. 3 Can two walke together except they bee agreed? 4 Will a lion roare in ye forest, when he hath no pray? or wil a lions whelpe cry out of his den, if he haue taken nothing? 5 Can a birde fall in a snare vpon the earth, where no fouler is? or will he take vp the snare from the earth, and haue taken nothing at all? 6 Or shall a trumpet be blowen in the citie, and the people be not afraide? or shall there be euil in a citie, and the Lord hath not done it? 7 Surely the Lord God will doe nothing, but he reueileth his secrete vnto his seruantes the Prophets.
