Beholde ,
I will send you corne ,
and wine ,
and oyle ,
and you shalbe satisfied therewith :
and I will no more make you a reproche among the heathen ,

But I will remove far off from you the (

and his hinder part toward the utmost sea ,
and his stink shall come up ,
and his ill savour shall come up ,
because he hath done great things .

and the presses shal abound with wine and oyle .
*
And I will render you the yeeres that the grashopper hath eaten ,
the canker worme and the caterpiller and the palmer worme ,
my great hoste which I sent among you .
*
So you shal eate and be satisfied and praise the Name of the Lord your God ,
that hath dealt marueilously with you :
and my people shal neuer be ashamed .
*
Ye shal also know ,
that I am in the middes of Israel ,
and that I am the Lorde your God and none other , &

my people shal neuer be ashamed .
