Thus saith Jehovah, In an acceptable time have I answered thee, and in a day of salvation have I helped thee; and I will preserve thee, and give thee for a covenant of the people, to raise up the land, to make them inherit the desolate heritages:
Þe Lord seith þese thingis, In a plesaunt tyme Y herde þee, and in þe dai of helþe Y helpide þee; and Y kepte þee, and yaf þee in to a bonde of pees of þe puple, þat thou schuldist reise þe erþe, and haue in possessioun eritagis, þat ben distried;
