1 Kings 9:6Wycliffe's Bible with Modern SpellingForsooth if by turning away, ye and your sons turn away, and pursue [or follow] not me, and keep not my behests and ceremonies, which I have set forth to you, but ye go, and worship alien gods, and honour them, See the chapter |
But thou, Solomon, my son, know [thou] the God of thy father, and serve thou him with perfect heart, and with a willful soul, or mind; for the Lord searcheth all hearts, and he understand-eth all the thoughts of souls; if thou seekest him, thou shalt find him; forsooth if thou forsakest him, he shall cast thee away without end.
Therefore the Lord God of Israel saith these things, I speaking spake, that thine house, and the house of thy father, should minister in my sight till into without end; now forsooth the Lord saith, Far be this from me; but whoever honoureth me, I shall glorify him; forsooth they that despise me, shall be unnoble.
