0 1 The praise of Iosias, 4 Of Dauid and Ezekias, 6 Of Ieremie, 8 Of Ezechiel, 11 Zorobabel, 12 Iesus the sonne of Iosedec. 13 Of Nehemiah, Enoch, Seth, Sem, and Adam. XLIX ¶ [fn]The remembrance of Iosias is like the composition of the perfume yt is made by the arte of the Apothecarie: it is sweete as hony in all mouthes, and as musicke at a banquet of wine. 2 [fn]He behaued himselfe vprightly in the conuersion of the people, and tooke away the abominations of iniquitie. 3 [fn]He directed his heart vnto the Lord, and in the time of the vngodly he established the worship of God. 4 All, except Dauid and Ezechias, and Iosias, were defectiue: for they forsooke the Law of the most High, (euen) the kings of Iudah failed: 5 [fn]Therefore he gaue their power vnto others, & their glory to a strange nation. 6 [fn][fn]They burnt the chosen citie of the Sanctuarie, and made the streets desolate according to the prophecie of Ieremias: 7 [fn][fn]For they entreated him euil, who neuerthelesse was a prophet sanctified in his mothers wombe, that he might root out and afflict & destroy, and that he might build vp also and plant. 8 [fn]It was Ezechiel who sawe the glorious vision, which was shewed him vpon the chariot of the Cherubims 9 [fn][fn]For he made mention of the enemies vnder [the figure of] the raine, and directed them that went right. 10 [fn]And of the twelue prophets let the memorial be blessed, and let their bones flourish againe out of their place: for they comforted Iacob, and deliuered them by assured hope. 11 [fn]How shall we magnifie Zorobabel? euen he was as a signet on the right hand. 12 [fn]So was Iesus the sonne of Iosedec: who in their time builded the house, and set vp an holy Temple to the Lord, which was prepared for euerlasting glory. 13 [fn]And among the elect was Neemias whose renowme is great, who raised vp for vs, the walles that were fallen, and set vp the gates & the barres, and raised vp our ruines againe. 14 But vpon the earth was no man created like Enoch, for he was taken from the earth. 15 [fn]Neither was there a man borne like vnto Ioseph, a gouernour of his brethren, a stay of the people, whose bones were regarded of the Lord. 16 [fn]Sem and Seth were in great honour among men, and so was Adam aboue euery liuing thing in the creation.
