Did Hezekiah king of Judah and all Judah put him to death? did he not fear Jehovah, and entreat the favor of Jehovah, and Jehovah repented him of the evil which he had pronounced against them? Thus should we commit great evil against our own souls.
Wheþer Ezechie, kyng of Juda, and al Juda condempnede hym bi deth? Wheþer þei dredden not þe Lord, and bisouyten þe face of þe Lord? and it repentide þe Lord of þe yuel which he spak ayens hem. Þerfor do we not greet yuel ayens oure soulis.
