For rebellion is as the sin of witchcraft, and stubbornness is as idolatry and teraphim. Because thou hast rejected the word of Jehovah, he hath also rejected thee from being king.
for it is as þe synne of mawmetrie to fiyte ayens Goddis heest, and it is as þe wickidnesse of ydolatrie to nyle ascente to Goddis heest. Þerfor for þat, þat thou castidist awey þe word of þe Lord, þe Lord castide þee awei, þat thou be not kyng.
