85Moreouer you shall neuer seeke to haue peace with them, that yee may be strong, and eate the good things of the land, and that ye may leaue the inheritance of the land vnto your children for euermore. 86And all that is befallen, is done vnto vs for our wicked workes, and great sinnes: for thou, O Lord, didst make our sinnes light: 87And didst giue vnto vs such a roote: but we haue turned backe againe to transgresse thy Law, and to mingle our selues with the vncleannesse of the nations of the land. 88Mightest not thou be angry with vs to destroy vs, till thou hadst left vs neither root, seed, nor name? 89O Lord of Israel, thou art true: for we are left a root this day.
