1 The ryghteous perisheth, and no man regardeth it in his heart: good godly people are taken away, & no man considereth it, namely, that the righteous is conueyed away from the wicked. 2 He commeth into peace, and godly men rest in their chaumbers, and before the godly man goeth peace. 3 Come hyther therfore ye charmers children, ye sonnes of the adulterer and the whore. 4 Wherin take ye your pleasure? vpon whom gape ye with your mouth, and bleare out your tongue? Are ye not children of transgression, and a seede of dissimulation? 5 Ye make your fire vnder the okes, and vnder all greene trees, and ye offer children in the valleys and dennes of stone. 6 Thy part shalbe with the stony rockes by the riuer, yea euen these shalbe thy part: For there thou hast powred meate & drynke offeryng vnto them: Shoulde I delyght in that?
