Micah 2:1Matthew's Bible 1537O wo vnto them, that Imagyn to do harme, & deuyse vngracyousnesse vpon their beddes, to perfourme it in the cleare daye: for there power is agaynst God. See the chapter |
Then sayde they: come, let vs ymagyn smothynge agaynst this Ieremy. Yee thys dyd euen the prestes, to whom the lawe was commytted: the Senatours, that were the wysest, and the prophetes, whiche wanted not the worde of God. Come (sayde they) lett vs cut out hys tunge, & let vs not regarde his wordes.
Then sayde Zares hys wyfe & al hys frendes vnto hym: Let them make a galowes of fyfty cubytes hye, and to morow speake thou vnto the king that Mardocheus may be hanged theron, yf thou commest merely wyth the kynge vnto the bancket. Haman was well content wyth all, and caused a galowes to be prepared.
