Hiere. xvi.
Your forefathers have forsake me, saith the Lord, & they are gone away after strange Gods & have served them and worshipped them, yea they have utterly given me over and have not kept my law. But you have wrought more abomination then all your forefathers have done For behold every one of you walk after the lewdness of his own wicked heart, & will not hear me.
Your forefathers haue forsake me, sayth the Lorde, & they are gone away after strange Goddes & haue serued thē and worshypped thē, yea they haue vtterly gyuē me ouer and haue not kept my lawe. But you haue wrought more abhominacyon then al your forefathers haue done For behold euery one of you walke after ye lewdenes of his owne wycked harte, & wyl not heare me.
