⁶⁰ And he kneeled downe, and cryed with a loude voyce: Lorde lay not this sinne to their charge. And when he had thus spoken, he fell a sleepe

¹⁸ Therfore, they which are fallen in a slepe in Christe, are perisshed

³⁴ Awake truely out of slepe, and sinne not: For some haue not the knowledge of God. I speake this to your shame

⁵¹ Beholde, I shewe you a misterie. We shall not all slepe: but we shall all be chaunged

¹⁴ Wherefore he sayth: Awake thou that sleepest, and stande vp from the dead, and Christe shall geue thee lyght

¹⁴ For yf we beleue that Iesus dyed and rose agayne: euen so them also whiche sleepe by Iesus, wyll God bryng with hym ¹⁵ For this say we vnto you in the worde of the Lorde, that we whiche lyue, remayning vnto the comyng of the Lord, shall not preuent them which sleepe

¹⁰ Whiche dyed for vs, that whether we wake or sleepe, we shoulde lyue together with hym

²³ And the scripture was fulfylled, which sayth: Abraham beleued God, and it was reputed vnto hym for ryghteousnesse: And he was called the friende of God

²⁴ Then came the Iewes rounde about hym, and sayde vnto hym: Howe long doest thou make vs doubt? Yf thou be Christe, tell vs playnely

²⁵ These thynges haue I spoken vnto you by prouerbes. The tyme wyl come, when I shall no more speake vnto you by prouerbes: but I shall shewe you playnely of my father

²⁹ His disciples sayde vnto hym: Lo, nowe talkest thou plainely, and speakest no prouerbe

²⁴ And the Lorde appeared vnto hym the same night, and sayde: I am the God of Abraham thy father, feare not, for I am with thee, and wyl blesse thee and multiple thy seede for my seruaunt Abrahams sake

⁵ And it came to passe from the tyme that he had made hym ouerseer of his house, and ouer all that he had, the Lorde blessed the Egyptians house for Iosephes sake: and the blessyng of the Lorde was vpon all that he had in the house and in the fielde

¹⁴ (105:11) He suffred no man to do them wrong: yea he reproued euen kynges for their sakes

¹⁵ Lo, whoso gathereth together [agaynst thee, doth it] without me, and who so within thee doth ioyne together against thee, shall surely fall

⁸ Moreouer, thus saith the Lord: Like as when newe wine is founde in the cluster, and one saith, Lose it not, for there is blessing therein: euen so wyll I do also for my seruauntes sakes, that I wyll not destroy them all

⁴ When Iesus hearde that, he sayde, this infirmitie is not vnto death: but for the glory of God, that the sonne of God, myght be glorified therby

³⁵ And Iesus wept ³⁶ Then sayde the Iewes: Beholde howe he loued hym

³⁰ Iesus aunswered and sayde: This voyce came, not because of me, but for your sakes

¹⁰ Beleuest thou not, that I am in the father, & the father in me? The wordes that I speake vnto you, I speake not of my selfe: but the father that dwelleth in me, is he that doth the workes ¹¹ Beleue me, that I am in the father, and the father in me: Or els beleue me for the workes sake

¹⁹ And for their sakes sanctifie I my selfe, that they also myght be sanctified through the trueth

¹⁵ For all thynges [do] for your [sakes,] that the plenteous grace, by thankes geuyng of many, may redounde to the prayse of God

¹⁰ Therfore I suffer all thynges for the electes sakes, that they myght also obtaine the saluation, which is in Christ Iesus, with eternall glorie

¹³ These thynges haue I written vnto you that beleue on ye name of the sonne of God, that ye may knowe howe that ye haue eternall lyfe, and that ye may beleue on the name of the sonne of God

³ Philip, & Bartholomewe, Thomas and Matthewe, which [had ben] a Publicane, Iames, ye [sonne] of Alphee, & Lebbeus, whose surname was Taddeus

³⁵ Peter sayde vnto hym: Though I shoulde dye with thee, yet wyll I not denie thee. Lykewyse also sayde all the disciples

¹⁸ And Andrewe, and Philip, and Bartholomewe, and Matthewe, and Thomas, and Iames the sonne of Alphee, and Thaddeus, and Simon Cananite

¹⁵ Matthewe and Thomas, Iames the sonne of Alpheus, & Simon, which is called Zelotes

³³ And he sayde vnto him: Lord I am redy to go with thee into pryson, and to death

³⁷ Peter sayde vnto hym: Lorde, why can not I folowe thee nowe? I wyll ieoparde my lyfe for thy sake

⁵ Thomas sayth vnto hym: Lorde, we knowe not whither thou goest: And howe is it possible for vs to knowe the waye

²⁴ But Thomas, one of the twelue, [which is] called Didymus, was not with them when Iesus came ²⁵ The other disciples therfore sayde vnto hym, we haue seene the Lorde. But he sayde vnto them: Except I see in his handes the print of the nayles, and put my fynger into the prynt of the nayles, and thruste my hande into his syde, I wyll not beleue ²⁶ And after eyght dayes, againe his disciples were within, and Thomas with them: Then came Iesus, when the doores were shutte, and stoode in the myddes, and sayde, peace be vnto you ²⁷ After that said he to Thomas: Bring thy fynger hyther, and see my handes, & reache hyther thy hande, and thrust it into my syde, and be not faythlesse, but beleuyng ²⁸ Thomas aunswered, and sayde vnto hym: My Lorde, and my God ²⁹ Iesus sayth vnto hym: Thomas, because thou hast seene me, thou hast beleued: Blessed are they that haue not seene, and yet haue beleued

² There were together Simon Peter, and Thomas [which is] called Didymus, and Nathanael, of Cana in Galilee, and the sonnes of Zebedee, & two other of his disciples

¹³ And when they were come in, they went vp into a parlour, where abode both Peter, and Iames, and Iohn, and Andrewe, Philip and Thomas, Barthelmewe and Matthewe, Iames the sonne of Alpheus, & Simo Zelotes, and Iudas the brother of Iames

² After two dayes shall he quicken vs, in the thirde day he shall rayse vs vp, so that we shall liue in his sight

¹⁹ Iesus aunswered, & sayde vnto them: Destroy this temple, & in three dayes I wyll reare it vp

³⁹ Iesus sayde: Take ye away the stone. Martha, the sister of hym that was dead, sayde vnto hym, Lorde, by this tyme he stinketh: For he hath ben dead foure dayes

²⁷ Because thou wylt not leaue my soule in hell, neither wylt thou suffer thyne holy one to see corruption ²⁸ Thou hast shewed me the wayes of lyfe, thou shalt make me full of ioy with thy countenaunce ²⁹ Ye men and brethren, let me freely speake vnto you of the patriarke Dauid: For he is both dead and buryed, and his sepulchre remayneth with vs vnto this day ³⁰ Therfore, seeyng he was a prophete, and knewe that God had sworne with an oth to hym, that Christe, as concernyng the fleshe, should come of the fruite of his loynes, & should syt on his seate ³¹ He knowyng this before, spake of the resurrection of Christe, that his soule shoulde not be left in hell, neither his fleshe shoulde see corruption

¹³ And beholde, two of them went that same day to a towne called Emaus, which was from Hierusalem about threescore furlonges

¹⁹ So, when they had rowed about 25 or 30 furlonges, they sawe Iesus walkyng on the sea, and drawyng nye vnto the shippe, and they were afrayde

²⁰ And the wynefat was troden without the citie, and blood came out of the fat, euen vnto the horse bridles, by the space of a thousand & sixe hundreth furlonges

¹⁶ And the citie was buylt foure square, & the length was as large as ye breadth: and he measured the citie with the reede twelue thousande furlonges, and the length, and the breadth, and the heyght of it were equall

³⁵ But all his sonnes & all his daughters rose vp to comfort hym: neuerthelesse he woulde not be comforted, but sayde, I wyll go downe into the graue vnto my sonne, mournyng: And thus his father wept for hym

² Then saide Dauid: I will shewe kindnesse vnto Hanon the sonne of Nahas, as his father shewed kindnesse vnto me. And Dauid sent to comfort him by the hand of his seruauntes, ouer his father: And Dauids seruauntes came in to the land of the children of Ammon

²¹ And Sabad his sonne, and Suthelah his sonne, and Eser, and Elead: And the men of Gath that were borne in that lande, slue them, because they were come downe to take away their cattell ²² And Ephraim their father mourned many a day, and his brethren came to comfort hym

¹¹ Nowe when Iobs three friendes heard of all the trouble that came vpon him, they came euery one fro his owne place [namely] Eliphas the Themanite, Bildad the Suhite, and Zophad the Naamathite: for they were agreed together to come to shewe their compassion vpon him, and to comfort hym

¹¹ And then came there vnto him all his brethren, all his sisters, and all they that had ben of his acquaintaunce afore, and did eate bread with him in his house, and had compassion on him, and comforted him ouer all trouble that the Lorde had brought vpon him: euery man also gaue him a certaine summe of money, and a iewell of golde

² It is better to go into an house of mourning, then into a banketting house: For there is the ende of all men, and he that is liuing taketh it to heart

¹⁹ Both these thinges are happened vnto thee, but who is sory for it? yea destruction, wastyng, hunger, and sworde, but who wyll comfort thee

⁵ For thus saith the Lorde, Go not thou into the house of mournyng, nor come to mourne and weepe for them: for I haue taken my peace from this people saith the Lorde, yea my fauour and my mercies ⁶ And in this lande shall they dye olde and young, and shall not be buryed: no man shall beweepe them, no man shall clippe or shaue hym selfe for them ⁷ They shall not wryng their handes in mournyng wise on their dead one to comfort another: one shall not offer another the cup of consolation, to forget their heauinesse for their father and mother

² She weepeth sore in the nyght, so that the teares runne downe her cheekes: for among all her louers there is none that geueth her any comfort, yea her next friendes transgresse agaynst her, and are become her enemies

⁹ Her skirtes are defiled, she remembred not her last ende, therfore is her fall so wonderfull, and there is no man to comfort her: O Lorde consider my trouble, for myne enemie hath the vpper hande

¹⁶ Therfore do I weepe, and mine eyes gushe out of water: for the comfort that shoulde quicken me is farre fro me, my children are driuen away: for why? the enemie hath gotten the vpper hande

²¹ They heare my mournyng, but there is none that wyll comfort me: All myne enemies haue hearde of my trouble, and are glad therof because thou hast done it: and thou hast brought foorth the time which thou calledst, when they also shal be lyke vnto me

¹³ What shall I say vnto thee, O thou daughter Hierusalem? to whom shal I liken thee? To whom shall I compare thee O thou daughter Sion, to comfort thee withall? thy heart is lyke a mayne sea, who may heale thee

³¹ The Iewes then which were with her in the house & comforted her, when they sawe Marie that she rose vp hastelye, and went out, folowed her, saying: She goeth vnto the graue, to weepe there

¹⁵ Reioyce with them that do reioyce, and wepe with them that wepe

⁴ Which comforted vs in all our tribulation, insomuch that we are able to comfort them which are in any maner trouble, with the comfort wherwith we our selues are comforted of God

¹⁸ Wherfore comfort your selues one another in these wordes

¹¹ Wherefore comfort your selues together, and edifie euery one another, euen as ye do

¹ Then shall the kyngdome of heauen be lykened vnto ten virgins, which toke their lampes, and went to meete the brydegrome

⁶ And euen at mydnyght, there was a crye made: beholde, the brydegrome commeth, go out to meete hym

³⁰ Iesus was not yet come into the towne: but was in that place where Martha met hym

²⁵ And it came to passe, as Peter came in, Cornelius met hym, & fell downe at his feete, and worshipped [hym.

¹⁵ And from thence, when the brethren hearde of vs, they came to meete vs at Appii forum, and at the three tauernes. When Paul sawe the, he thanked God, and waxed bolde

¹⁷ Than we which lyue, which remaine, shalbe caught vp together with them in the cloudes, to meete the Lorde in the ayre: And so shall we euer be with the Lorde

¹⁸ And she said vnto Elias: What haue I to do with thee O thou man of God? Art thou come vnto me to call my sinne againe to remembraunce, and to slay my sonne

¹⁹ They spake against God: they said, can God prepare a table in the wildernesse

⁴¹ They turned backe and tempted the Lorde: and prescribed boundes to the most holy [God] of Israel

¹⁸ Whyle he spake these thynges vnto them, beholde, there came a certayne ruler, and worshypped hym, saying: My daughter is euen nowe dead, but come and lay thy hande vpon her, and she shall lyue

⁶ Then Iesus went with them. And when he was nowe not farre from the house, the Centurion sent friendes to hym, saying vnto hym: Lorde, trouble not thy selfe, for I am not worthy that thou shouldest enter vnder my roofe ⁷ Wherefore I thought not my selfe worthy to come vnto thee: but say thou the worde, & my seruaunt shalbe whole ⁸ For I also am a man, set vnder power, and haue vnder me souldiers: and I say vnto one go, and he goeth: and to another, come, and he commeth: and to my seruaunt, do this, and he doth it ⁹ When Iesus hearde these thynges, he marueyled at hym, and turned hym about, and sayde to the people that folowed hym: I say vnto you, I haue not founde so great fayth, no, not in Israel ¹⁰ And they that were sent, turned backe home agayne, and founde the seruaunt whole, that had ben sicke

¹³ And when the Lorde sawe her, he had compassion on her, and sayde vnto her: Weepe not ¹⁴ And he came nye, & touched the beere, (and they that bare hym stoode styll) And he sayde: Young man, I say vnto thee, aryse ¹⁵ And he that was dead, sate vp, and began to speake: And he delyuered hym to his mother

⁴⁹ Whyle he yet spake, there came one from the ruler of the synagogues house, which sayde to hym: Thy daughter is dead, disease not the Maister ⁵⁰ But when Iesus hearde that worde, he aunswered him, saying: Feare not, beleue only, & she shalbe made whole ⁵¹ And when he came to the house, he suffered no man to go in with hym, saue Peter, and Iames, and Iohn, and the father and the mother of the mayden ⁵² Euery body wept, & sorowed for her. And he sayde: Weepe not, the damsell is not dead, but slepeth ⁵³ And they laughed hym to scorne, knowyng that she was dead ⁵⁴ And he thrust them all out, and toke her by the hande, and cryed, saying: Mayde, aryse ⁵⁵ And her spirite came agayne, and she rose straightway: And he commaunded to geue her meate

⁴⁷ Assoone as the same hearde that Iesus was come out of Iurie into Galilee, he went vnto hym, and besought hym that he woulde come downe, and heale his sonne: For he was euen at the poynt of death ⁴⁸ Then sayde Iesus vnto hym: except ye see signes and wonders, ye wyll not beleue ⁴⁹ The ruler sayth vnto hym: Syr, come downe or euer that my sonne dye

³² Then when Marie was come where Iesus was, and sawe hym, she fell downe at his feete, and sayth vnto him: Lorde, yf thou haddest ben here, my brother had not ben dead

³⁷ And some of them sayde: Coulde not he which opened the eyes of the blinde, haue made also, that this man shoulde not haue dyed

⁸ Desire of me, and I wyll geue thee the heathen for thyne inheritaunce: and the vttermost partes of the earth for thy possession

¹⁸ And Iesus came, and spake vnto the, saying: All power is geuen vnto me in heauen and in earth

²³ Iesus sayde vnto hym: this thyng yf thou cans beleue, all thynges are possible to hym that beleueth

³⁵ The father loueth the sonne, and hath geuen all thynges into his hande

²² Neither iudgeth the father any man: but hath committed all iudgement vnto the sonne ²³ Because that all men shoulde honour the sonne, euen as they honour the father. He that honoureth not the sonne, the same honoureth not ye father which hath sent hym ²⁴ Ueryly veryly I say vnto you, he that heareth my worde, and beleueth on him that sent me, hath euerlastyng lyfe, and shall not come into dampnation, but is escaped from death vnto lyfe ²⁵ Ueryly veryly I saye vnto you, the houre shall come, and nowe is, when the dead shall heare the voyce of the sonne of God: And they that heare, shall lyue ²⁶ For as the father hath lyfe in hym selfe: so lykewyse hath he geuen to the sonne, to haue lyfe in hym selfe ²⁷ And hath geuen hym power also to iudge, because he is the sonne of man

³¹ For we be sure, that God heareth not sinners: But yf any man be a worshipper of God, and obedient vnto his wyll, hym heareth he

⁴¹ Then they toke away the stone from the place where the dead was layde. And Iesus lyft vp his eyes, and sayde: Father, I thanke thee that thou hast hearde me ⁴² Howbeit, I knowe, that thou hearest me alwayes: but because of the people which stande by, I sayde it, that they maye beleue that thou hast sent me

² As thou hast geuen hym power ouer all fleshe, that he shoulde geue eternall life, to as many as thou hast geuen him

¹⁷ By fayth Abraham offered by Isaac when he was proued: and he that had receaued the promises, offered vp his only begotten sonne ¹⁸ To whom it was saide, that in Isaac shall thy seede be called ¹⁹ For he considered that God was able to rayse the dead vp agayne, fro whence also he receaued hym in a similitude [of the resurrection.

¹⁵ But as for me, I will beholde thy face in ryghteousnesse: I shalbe satisfied when I awake vp after thy lykenesse

¹⁴ (49:13) They shalbe put into a graue [dead] as a sheepe, death shall feede on them: but the ryghteous shall haue dominion of them in the mornyng, their beautie shall consume away, hell [shall receaue them] from their house ¹⁵ (49:14) But God wyll delyuer my soule from the place of hell: for he wyll receaue me. Selah

⁸ As for death he hath destroyed it for euer, and the Lorde God shall wype away teares from all faces, and the rebuke of his people shall he take away out of all the earth, for so the Lorde hath sayde

¹⁹ Thy dead men shall liue, euen as my body shall they rise againe: Awake and sing ye that dwell in dust, for thy deawe is euen as the deawe of hearbes, and the earth shall cast out them that be vnder her

¹ The hande of the Lorde was vpon me, and caried me out in the spirite of the Lorde, and set me downe in the midst of a plaine fielde that was full of bones ² And he led me rounde about by them, and beholde, there were very many in the open fielde, and lo [they were] very drye ³ Then saide he vnto me: Thou sonne of man, thinkest thou these bones may liue againe? I aunswered, O Lorde God, thou knowest ⁴ And he saide vnto me, Prophecie thou vpon these bones, & speake vnto them: Ye drye bones, heare the worde of the Lorde ⁵ Thus saith the Lorde God vnto these bones: Beholde, I wyll cause breath to enter into you, that ye may lyue ⁶ I wyll geue you sinowes, and make fleshe growe vpon you, and couer you ouer with skinne, & so geue you breath, that ye may liue, and knowe that I am the Lorde ⁷ So I prophecied as I was comaunded: and as I was propheciyng, there was a noyse, and lo a great motion, so that the bones came neare together, bone to his bone ⁸ Now when I had loked, behold they had sinowes, & flesh grewe vpon them, and aboue they were couered with skin: but there was no breath in them ⁹ Then saide he vnto me: Thou sonne of man, prophecie thou towarde the winde, prophecie & speake to the winde, thus saith the Lorde God: Come, O thou ayre from the foure windes, and blowe vpon these slaine, that they may lyue ¹⁰ So I prophecied as he had commaunded me: then came the breath into them, and they receaued lyfe, and stoode vp vpon their feete, a marueilous great armie

² And many of them that sleepe in the dust of the earth, shal awake, some to euerlasting life, & some to shame & perpetuall contempt ³ They that be wyse, shall shine as the brightnesse of the firmament: and they that turne many to righteousnesse, as the starres for euer and euer

¹⁴ I wyll redeeme them from the power of the graue, and deliuer them from death: O death, I wyll be thy death: O hell, I wyll be thy styng: yet can I see no comfort

²³ The same day came to hym the Saducees, which say that there is no resurrection, and asked hym ²⁴ Saying: Maister, Moyses sayde, that if a man dye, hauing no childre, his brother shoulde mary his wyfe, and rayse vp seede vnto his brother ²⁵ Ther were with vs seuen brethren, and the first maryed a wyfe, and deceassed without issue, and left his wyfe vnto his brother ²⁶ Likewyse, the seconde, and the thirde, vnto the seuenth ²⁷ Last of all, the woman dyed also ²⁸ Therfore, in the resurrection, whose wyfe shall she be of the seuen? For they all had her ²⁹ Iesus aunswered & sayde vnto them: ye do erre, not knowyng the Scriptures, nor the power of God ³⁰ For in the resurrection, they neither mary, nor are geuen in maryage: but are as the Angels of God in heauen ³¹ But as touchyng the resurrection of the dead: haue ye not read that which is spoken vnto you of God, which sayth ³² I am the God of Abraham, and the God of Isaac, and the God of Iacob? God is not the God of the dead, but of the lyuyng

¹⁴ And thou shalt be happy, for they can not recompence thee: For thou shalt be recompenced at the resurrection of the iust [men.

³¹ Because he hath appoynted a day in the which he wyll iudge the worlde in ryghteousnesse, by that man by whom he hath appoynted, and hath offered fayth to all men, in that he hath raysed hym from the dead ³² And when they hearde of the resurrection from the dead, some mocked, and other sayde, we wyll heare thee agayne of this matter

⁶ But when Paul perceaued that the one part were saducees, and the other pharisees, he cryed out in the counsell: Men and brethren, I am a pharisee, the sonne of a pharisee: Of the hope & resurrection of the dead, I am iudged ⁷ And when he had so sayde, there arose a debate betwene the pharisees and the saducees, & the multitude was deuided ⁸ For the saducees say, that there is no resurrection, neither Angel, nor spirite: But the pharisees confesse both ⁹ And there arose a great crye: and whe the scribes which were of the pharisees part arose, they stroue, saying, We fynde none euyll in this man: But yf a spirite or an Angel hath spoken to hym, let vs not striue agaynst God

¹⁵ And haue hope towardes God, that the resurrection of the dead which they them selues loke for also, shalbe both of the iust and vniust

³⁵ The women receaued their dead, raysed to lyfe agayne: Other were racked, not lokyng for deliueraunce, that they might receaue a better resurrectio

²⁵ For I am sure that my redeemer saueth, and he shall rayse vp at the latter day them that lye in the dust ²⁶ And though after my skinne the [wormes] destroy this body, yet shall I see God in my fleshe ²⁷ Whom I my selfe shall see, and myne eyes shall beholde, and none other for me, though my raines are consumed within me

⁹ For with thee is the fountaine of lyfe: and in thy light shall we see light

¹⁶ O Lorde, to all those that shall lyue hereafter, yea to all men shall it be knowen, that euen in those yeres I haue a ioyfull lyfe, and that it was thou that causedst me to sleepe agayne, thou hast geuen lyfe to me

⁴³ And Iesus sayde vnto hym: Ueryly I say vnto thee, to day shalt thou be with me in paradise

⁴ In it was lyfe, and the lyfe was the lyght of men

³⁶ He that beleueth on the sonne, hath euerlastyng lyfe: He that beleueth not the sonne, shall not see life, but the wrath of God abydeth on hym

²¹ For lykewyse as the father rayseth vp the dead, and quickeneth them: euen so, the sonne quickeneth whom he wyll

²⁶ For as the father hath lyfe in hym selfe: so lykewyse hath he geuen to the sonne, to haue lyfe in hym selfe

³⁵ And Iesus sayde vnto them, I am the bread of lyfe: He that cometh to me, shall not hunger: and he that beleueth on me, shall neuer thirst

³⁹ And this is the fathers wyll whiche hath sent me: that of all which he hath geuen me, I shal lose nothing, but rayse it vp agayne at the last day ⁴⁰ And this is the wyll of him yt sent me: that euery one which seeth the sonne, & beleueth on him, hath euerlastyng lyfe: And I wyll rayse him vp at ye last day

⁴⁴ No man can come to me, except the father, whiche hath sent me, drawe hym: And I wyll rayse hym vp at the last day

⁶ Iesus sayth vnto hym: I am the way, and the trueth, and the lyfe. No man cometh vnto the father, but by me

¹⁹ Yet a litle whyle, and the worlde shall see me no more: but ye shall see me, because I lyue, and ye shall lyue [also.

¹⁵ And kylled the Lorde of lyfe, whom God hath raysed from the dead: of the which we are witnesses

¹⁷ (As it is written, that I haue made thee a father of many nations) before God, whom he beleued, which restoreth the dead vnto life, and calleth those thynges whiche be not, as though they were

¹⁷ For yf by the sinne of one, death raigned by the meanes of one: much more they, whiche receaue aboundaunce of grace, and of the gyfte of ryghteousnes, shall raigne in life by the meanes of one, Iesus Christe ¹⁸ Lykewyse then, as by the sinne of one [sinne came] on all men to condempnation: euen so, by the ryghteousnes of one [good came] vpon all men to the ryghteousnes of lyfe ¹⁹ For as by one mans disobedience many became sinners: so by the obedience of one, shall many be made ryghteous

² For the lawe of the spirite of lyfe, through Iesus Christe, hath made me free from the lawe of sinne and death

¹⁰ And yf Christe be in you, the body is dead because of sinne: but the spirite is lyfe for ryghteousnesse sake ¹¹ But, yf ye spirite of hym that raysed vp Iesus from the dead, dwell in you: euen he that raised vp Christe from the dead, shall also quicken your mortall bodyes, because that his spirite dwelleth in you

³⁸ For I am sure, that neither death, neither lyfe, neither angels, nor rule, neither power, neither thynges present, neither thynges to come ³⁹ Neither heygth nor deapth, neither any other creature, shalbe able to seperate vs from the loue of God, which is in Christe Iesu our Lorde

²⁰ But nowe is Christe rysen from the dead, the first fruites of them that slept ²¹ For since by man [came] death, euen so by man [came] the resurrection of ye dead ²² For, as by Adam all dye: euen so by Christe shall all be made alyue ²³ But euery man in his owne order. The first fruites [is] Christe, afterward, they that are Christes at his commyng ²⁴ Then [commeth] the ende, when he hath deliuered vp the kingdome to God the father, when he hath put downe all rule, and all auctoritie, and power ²⁵ For he must raigne tyll he haue put all his enemies vnder his feete ²⁶ The last enemie that shalbe destroyed, [is] death

²⁹ Els what shall they do, which are baptized for the dead, yf the dead ryse not at all

⁴³ It is sowen in dishonour, it riseth in honour. It is sowen in weakenesse, it ryseth in power ⁴⁴ It is sowen a naturall bodie, it ryseth a spirituall bodie. There is a naturall bodie, and there is a spirituall bodie ⁴⁵ As it is also written: The first man Adam was made a lyuyng soule, and the last Adam was made a quickenyng spirite ⁴⁶ Howebeit, that is not first whiche is spirituall, but that [whiche is] naturall, and then that [whiche is] spirituall ⁴⁷ The first man [is] of the earth, earthy: the seconde man [is] the Lorde from heauen ⁴⁸ As is the earthy, suche [are] they that are earthy: And as is the heauenly, such [are] they also that are heauenly ⁴⁹ And as we haue borne the image of the earthy, so shall we beare the image of the heauenly ⁵⁰ This saye I brethren, that fleshe and blood can not inherite the kyngdome of God: Neither doth corruption, inherite incorruption ⁵¹ Beholde, I shewe you a misterie. We shall not all slepe: but we shall all be chaunged ⁵² In a moment, in the twynklyng of an eye, at the last trumpe. For the trumpe shall blowe, and the dead shall ryse incorruptible, and we shalbe chaunged ⁵³ For this corruptible, must put on incorruption, and this mortall [must] put on immortalitie ⁵⁴ When this corruptible, hath put on incorruption, and this mortal, hath put on immortalitie, then shalbe brought to passe the saying that is written, Death is swalowed vp into victorie ⁵⁵ O death where is thy stynge? O hell where is thy victorie ⁵⁶ The stynge of death [is] sinne, and the strength of sinne [is] the lawe ⁵⁷ But thankes be vnto God, whiche hath geue vs victorie through our Lord Iesus Christe

¹⁴ For we knowe, that he which raysed vp the Lorde Iesus, shall rayse vp vs also by the meanes of Iesus, and shall set vs with you

¹ For we knowe, that yf our earthly house of [this] tabernacle were destroyed, we haue a building of God, an habitation not made with handes, but eternall in heauen ² For therfore sygh we, desiryng to be clothed with our house whiche is from heauen ³ So yet, yf that we be founde clothed, and not naked ⁴ For we that are in this tabernacle sigh, & being burdened because we would not be vnclothed, but would be clothed vpo, that mortalitie might be swalowed vp of lyfe ⁵ He that hath ordeyned vs for this thyng [is] God, which hath also geuen vnto vs the earnest of the spirite ⁶ Therfore we are alway of good cheare, and knowe, that as long as we are at home in the body, we are absent from the Lorde ⁷ (For we walke by fayth, not after outwarde appearaunce. ⁸ Neuerthelesse, we are of good comfort, and had rather to be absent from the body, and to be present with the Lorde

²³ For I am in a strayte betwixt two, hauyng a desire to be loosed, and to be with Christ, which is much farre better

¹⁰ That I may knowe hym, and the power of his resurrection, and the felowshippe of his passions, confirmable vnto his death

²⁰ But our conuersation is in heauen, from whence also we loke for the sauiour, the Lorde Iesus Christe ²¹ Who shall chaunge our vyle body, that it may be fashioned lyke vnto his glorious body, according to the working wherby he is able to subdue all thynges vnto hym selfe

³ For ye are dead, and your lyfe is hyd with Christe in God ⁴ When soeuer Christe which is our life, shall appeare, then shall ye also appeare with hym in glorie

¹⁴ For yf we beleue that Iesus dyed and rose agayne: euen so them also whiche sleepe by Iesus, wyll God bryng with hym

¹³ These all dyed according to fayth, not hauing receaued the promises, but seing them a farre of, and beleuyng, and salutyng, and confessyng that they were straungers and pilgrimes on the earth ¹⁴ For they that saye suche thynges, declare that they seke a countrey ¹⁵ Also yf they had ben myndfull of that [countrey] from whence they came out, they had leasure to haue returned ¹⁶ But nowe they desire a better, that is, a heauenly. Wherefore God is not ashamed of them to be called their God, for he hath prepared for them a citie

¹ That whiche was fro the beginning, whiche we haue heard, which we haue seene with our eyes, whiche we haue loked vpo, & our handes haue handeled of, the worde of lyfe ² (And the lyfe appeared, and we haue seene, and beare witnesse, and shewe vnto you that eternall lyfe which was with the father, and appeared vnto vs.

¹¹ And this is the recorde, how that God hath geuen vnto vs eternall lyfe, and this lyfe, is in his sonne ¹² He that hath the sonne, hath lyfe: and he that hath not the sonne of God, hath not lyfe

⁵ But the other of the dead men shall not lyue agayne, vntyll the thousande yeres be finished. This is the first resurrection

¹⁰ And the deuyll that deceaued them, was cast into a lake of fire & brymstone, where the beast and the false prophete shalbe tormented day & nyght for euermore ¹¹ And I sawe a great whyte throne, and him that sate on it, fro whose face fledde away both the earth and heauen, and their place was no more founde ¹² And I sawe the dead both great and small stand before God, and the bookes were opened: and another booke was opened, which is [the booke] of lyfe, and the dead were iudged of those thynges whiche were written in the bookes, accordyng to their deedes ¹³ And the sea gaue vp her dead whiche were in her, and death and hell delyuered vp the dead whiche were in them: and they were iudged euery man accordyng to his deedes ¹⁴ And death and hell were cast into the lake of fyre. This is the seconde death ¹⁵ And whosoeuer was not founde written in the booke of lyfe, was cast into the lake of fire

⁴ And God shall wype away all teares from their eyes: and there shalbe no more death, neither sorowe, neither crying, neither shall there be any more payne, for the former thynges are gone

¹ And he shewed me a pure ryuer of water of lyfe, cleare as Cristall, proceadyng out of the throne of god, and of the lambe

¹⁷ And the spirite and the bride say, come. And let hym that heareth, say also, come. And let hym that is a thirst, come. And let whosoeuer wyll, take of the water of lyfe, freely

²⁸ And whe he was come into the house, the blynde came to hym. And Iesus sayth vnto them: Beleue ye that I am able to do this? They sayde vnto hym, yea Lorde

⁵³ Thynkest thou that I can not nowe pray to my father, and he shall geue me more then twelue legions of Angels

¹⁵ That whosoeuer beleueth in hym, perishe not, but haue eternall lyfe ¹⁶ For God so loued the worlde, that he gaue his only begotten sonne, that whosoeuer beleueth in hym, shoulde not perishe, but haue euerlastyng lyfe ¹⁷ For God sent not his sonne into the worlde, to condempne the worlde: but that the worlde through hym myght be saued. He that beleueth on hym, is not condempned ¹⁸ But he that beleueth not, is condempned alredy, because he hath not beleued in the name of the only begotte sonne of God

¹⁴ But whosoeuer drynketh of the water that I shall geue hym, shall neuer be more a thyrst: but the water that I shall geue him, shalbe in him a well of water, spryngyng vp into euerlastyng lyfe

²⁴ Ueryly veryly I say vnto you, he that heareth my worde, and beleueth on him that sent me, hath euerlastyng lyfe, and shall not come into dampnation, but is escaped from death vnto lyfe

⁵⁰ This is that bread, which commeth downe from heauen, that yf any man eate therof, [he] shoulde not dye ⁵¹ I am that lyuyng bread, which came downe from heauen. Yf any man eate of this bread, he shall lyue for euer. And the bread that I wyl geue, is my fleshe, whiche I wyll geue for the lyfe of the worlde

⁵⁴ Who so eateth my fleshe, and drinketh my blood, hath eternall lyfe, and I wyl rayse hym vp at the last day ⁵⁵ For my fleshe is meate in deede, and my blood is drynke in deede ⁵⁶ He that eateth my fleshe, and drinketh my blood, dwelleth in me, & I in hym ⁵⁷ As the lyuing father hath sent me, and I lyue by the father: Euen so, he that eateth me, shal liue by [the meanes of] me ⁵⁸ This is that bread, which came downe from heauen: Not as your fathers dyd eate Manna, and are dead. He that eateth of this bread, shall lyue euer

⁵¹ Ueryly veryly I saye vnto you, yf a man kepe my saying, he shall neuer see death ⁵² Then sayde the Iewes vnto hym: Now know we that thou hast ye deuyll. Abraham is dead, & the prophetes: and thou sayest, yf a man kepe my saying, he shall neuer taste of death ⁵³ Art thou greater the our father Abraham, which is dead? and the prophetes are dead: whom makest thou thy selfe

³⁵ Iesus hearde that they had excommunicate hym, & when he had founde hym, he sayde vnto hym: Doest thou beleue on the sonne of God

²⁸ And I geue vnto them eternall lyfe, and they shal neuer perishe, neither shal any man plucke them out of my hande

¹⁰ Beleuest thou not, that I am in the father, & the father in me? The wordes that I speake vnto you, I speake not of my selfe: but the father that dwelleth in me, is he that doth the workes

¹³ For if ye liue after ye fleshe, ye shall dye: But if ye through the spirite, do mortifie the deedes of the body, ye shall lyue

¹⁰ He that beleueth on the sonne of God, hath the witnesse in hym selfe: He that beleueth not God, hath made hym a lyer, because he beleued not the recorde that God gaue of his sonne

¹ Beholde, I wyll sende my messenger, and he shall prepare the way before me, and the lord whom ye seeke, shal speedyly come to his temple, and the messenger of the couenaunt whom ye desire, beholde he commeth, saith the Lorde of hoastes

³ Art thou he that shoulde come? or do we loke for another

¹⁶ Simon Peter aunswered and sayde: Thou art Christe, the sonne of the lyuyng God

¹¹ For vnto you is borne this daye, in the citie of Dauid, a sauiour, which is Christ the Lorde

¹⁹ And Iohn called vnto hym two of his disciples, and sent them to Iesus, saying: Art thou he that shoulde come, or shall we loke for another ²⁰ When the men were come vnto hym, they sayde, Iohn Baptiste sent vs vnto thee, saying: Art thou he that shoulde come, or shall we loke for another

⁴⁹ Nathanael aunswered, and sayde vnto hym: Rabbi, thou art euen the [very] sonne of God, thou art ye kyng of Israel

⁴² And sayde vnto the woman: Nowe we beleue, not because of thy saying: for we haue heard him our selues, & know that this is euen Christe, the sauiour of the worlde

¹⁴ Then those men, when they had seene the miracle that Iesus did, saide: This is of a trueth the same prophete that shoulde come into the worlde

⁶⁹ And we beleue and are sure that thou art Christe, the sonne of ye lyuyng God

³⁶ He aunswered and sayde: Who is he Lorde, that I myght beleue on hym ³⁷ And Iesus sayde vnto hym: Thou hast both seene hym, and it is he that talketh with thee ³⁸ And he sayde, Lorde, I beleue: And he worshipped hym

²⁸ Thomas aunswered, and sayde vnto hym: My Lorde, and my God ²⁹ Iesus sayth vnto hym: Thomas, because thou hast seene me, thou hast beleued: Blessed are they that haue not seene, and yet haue beleued ³⁰ And many other signes truely dyd Iesus in the presence of his disciples, which are not written in this booke ³¹ These are written, that ye myght beleue that Iesus is Christe the sonne of God, and that in beleuyng, ye myght haue lyfe through his name

³⁶ And as they went on their way, they came vnto a certayne water, and the Eunuche sayde: See, here is water, what doth let me to be baptized

¹⁵ This is a faythfull saying, and by all meanes worthy to be receaued, that Christe Iesus came into the worlde to saue synners, of whom I am chiefe ¹⁶ Notwithstandyng, for this cause was mercie shewed vnto me, that in me the first, Iesus Christe myght shewe all long sufferyng, to the example of them which shoulde beleue on hym to lyfe euerlastyng

¹ Whosoeuer beleueth that Iesus is Christe, is borne of God: And euerie one that loueth him which begat, loueth hym also which is begotten of hym

²⁰ We knowe that the sonne of God is come, & hath geuen vs a minde to know hym which is true: and we are in hym that is true, through his sonne Iesus Christe. This same is very God, and eternall lyfe

⁸ I charge you (O ye daughters of Hierusalem) by the roes and hindes of the fiede, that ye wake not vp my loue, nor touche her, tyll she be content her selfe ⁹ Me thinke I heare the voyce of my beloued: lo, there commeth he hopping vpon the mountaines, and leaping ouer the litle hilles ¹⁰ My beloued is lyke a roe or a young hart: beholde he standeth behinde our wall, he looketh in at the windowe, and peepeth thorowe the grace ¹¹ My beloued aunswered and sayd vnto me: O stande vp my loue, my beautifull, and go to thyne owne: for lo the winter is nowe past, the rayne is away and gone ¹² The flowres are come vp in the field, the tyme of the byrdes singing is come, and the voyce of the turtle doue is hearde in our lande ¹³ The figge tree bryngeth foorth her figges, and the vines beare blossomes and haue a good smell ¹⁴ O stande vp then and come my loue my beautifull, [and come I say] O my doue, out of the caues of the rockes, out of the holes of the wall, O let me see thy countenaunce and heare thy voyce: for sweete is thy voyce, and fayre is thy face

¹⁰ In that day shall euery man call his neighbour vnder the vine, and vnder the figtree, saith the Lorde of hoastes

¹⁸ And he saide: Go into the citie, to such a man, and say vnto hym, the maister sayth, my tyme is at hand, I wyll kepe the Passouer at thy house, with my disciples

⁴⁹ And Iesus stoode styll, and commaunded hym to be called. And they called the blynde, saying vnto hym: Be of good comfort, ryse, he calleth the

¹⁴ And whyther soeuer he goeth in, say ye to the good man of the house, the maister sayth: Where is the ghest chaumber, where I shall eate the Pasouer with my disciples

¹¹ And ye shall say vnto the good man of the house, the maister saith vnto thee, where is the ghest chamber, where I shall eate ye Passouer with my disciples

⁴¹ The same founde his brother Simon first, and sayth vnto hym: We haue founde Messias, which is by interpretation, the annoynted

⁴⁵ Philip founde Nathanael, and sayth vnto hym: We haue founde hym, of whom Moyses in the lawe, and the prophetes, dyd write: Iesus of Nazareth, the sonne of Ioseph

³ To hym the porter openeth, and the sheepe heare his voyce, and he calleth his owne sheepe by name, and leadeth them out

²⁰ Martha assoone as she hearde that Iesus was commyng, went and met hym: but Marie sate styll in the house

¹³ Ye call me Maister, and Lorde, and ye say well, for so am I

¹⁶ Iesus sayth vnto her, Marie. She turned her selfe, and sayde vnto hym: Rabboni, which is to say, Maister

⁷ Then sayde the disciple, whom Iesus loued, vnto Peter: It is the Lord. Whe Simon Peter hearde that it was the Lorde, he gyrde his coate vnto him (for he was naked) and sprang into the sea

¹⁷ Than we which lyue, which remaine, shalbe caught vp together with them in the cloudes, to meete the Lorde in the ayre: And so shall we euer be with the Lorde ¹⁸ Wherfore comfort your selues one another in these wordes

¹² Strayghten vp therfore the handes which were let downe, and the weake knees

⁸ My heart hath sayde vnto thee [according to this thy commaundement] seeke ye my face: thy face O God wyll I seeke

⁵⁹ (119:3) I haue considered mine owne wayes: and I haue turned my feete vnto thy testimonies ⁶⁰ (119:4) I made haste and I made no delay: for to kepe thy commaundementes

²³ A ioyfull thing it is to a man whe his counsayle is folowed: and howe good is a worde spoken in season

¹⁷ Like as one iron whetteth another, so doth one man comfort another

¹ By night in my bed I sought hym whom my soule loueth: yea diligently sought I him, but I found him not ² I will get vp [thought] & go about the citie, in the wayes in all the streates wyll I seeke hym whom my soule loueth: but when I sought him I founde him not ³ The watchmen also that go about the citie, founde me [to whom I sayde] Sawe ye not hym whom my soule loueth ⁴ So when I was a litle past them, I founde him whom my soule loueth: I haue gotten holde vpon hym, and wyll not let him go, vntyll I bryng him into my mothers house, and into her chaumber that bare me

¹⁶ Dauid therefore besought God for the childe, and fasted, and went in, & laye all night vpon the earth ¹⁷ And the elders of his house arose and went to him, to take him vp from the earth: But he would not, neither did he eate meate with them ¹⁸ And the seuenth day the childe dyed, and the seruauntes of Dauid feared to tell him that the childe was dead: For they said, beholde, while the childe was yet alyue we spake vnto hym, and he would not hearke vnto our voyce: how will he then vexe him selfe, if we tell him that the childe is dead

¹⁹ And many of the Iewes came to Martha and Marie to comfort them ouer their brother

¹⁵ But he that is spirituall, discerneth all thynges, yet he hym selfe is iudged of no man

⁸ When Simon Peter sawe this, he fell downe at Iesus knees, saying: Lorde, go from me, for I am a sinfull man

⁴¹ And behold, ther came a man named Iairus, & he was a ruler of ye synagoge, & he fell downe at Iesus feete, praying him that he would come into his house

¹⁶ And fell downe on his face at his feete, and gaue hym thankes: And the same was a Samaritane

⁴⁹ The ruler sayth vnto hym: Syr, come downe or euer that my sonne dye

²¹ Then sayde Martha vnto Iesus: Lorde, yf thou haddest ben here, my brother had not dyed

⁸ And when he had taken the booke, the foure beastes and 24 elders fell downe before the lambe, hauyng euery one of them harpes, and golden vyals full of odours, which are the prayers of saintes

¹⁴ And the foure beastes sayde, Amen. And the 24 elders fell vpon their faces, and worshipped hym that lyueth for euermore. The lambe openeth the sixe seales, and many thynges folowe the openyng therof, so that this conteyneth a generall prophesie to the ende of the worlde

⁸ I Iohn sawe these thynges, & hearde them: And when I had hearde and seene, I fell downe to worship before the feete of the angell, which shewed me these thynges

⁵ And when he had loked rounde about on them with anger, mournyng for the hardnesse of their heartes, he sayth to the man: stretch foorth thyne hande. And he stretched it out: And his hande was restored, euen as whole as the other

¹⁹ He aunswereth hym, and sayth: O faythlesse nation, howe long shall I be with you? how long shall I suffer you? Bryng hym vnto me

³³ And he taketh with hym, Peter, and Iames, and Iohn, and began to waxe abasshed, and to be in an agonie ³⁴ And sayth vnto them: My soule is heauie, euen vnto the death, tarry ye here and watche ³⁵ And he went foorth a litle, and fell flat on the grounde, and prayed: that yf it were possible, the houre myght passe from hym

³⁸ Iesus therfore agayne groned in him selfe, and came to the graue. It was a caue, and a stone layde on it

²⁷ Nowe is my soule troubled, and what shall I say? Father, saue me from this houre: but therfore came I into this houre

²¹ When Iesus had thus sayde, he was troubled in spirite, and testified, & saide: Ueryly, veryly, I say vnto you, that one of you shall betray me

¹⁵ For we haue not an hye priest whiche can not be touched with the feelyng of our infirmities: but was in all poyntes tempted lyke as we are, and [yet] without sinne

⁷ Which in the dayes of his fleshe, when he had offered vp prayers and supplications with strong crying and teares, vnto hym that was able to saue hym from death, and was hearde in that which he feared ⁸ Though he were the sonne, yet learned he obediece, by these thinges which he suffred

⁶ He is not here, he is rysen, as he saide. Come, se the place where that the Lord was layde

⁴⁷ And Marie Magdalene, and Marie Ioses, behelde where he was layde

⁶ And he sayth vnto them, be not amased: ye seke Iesus of Nazareth, which was crucified: He is risen, he is not here, beholde the place where they had put hym

³⁹ He sayeth vnto them: come and see. They came, and sawe where he dwelt, and abode with hym that day: For it was about the tenth houre

² Then she ranne, & came to Simo Peter, & to the other disciple who Iesus loued, & saith vnto the: They haue take away the Lorde out of the graue, & we can not tell where they haue layde him

³⁰ And Ioseph made haste (for his heart did melt vpon his brother) and sought [where] to weepe, and entred into his chaumber and wept there

²⁵ Dyd not I weepe with hym that was in trouble? Had not my soule compassion vpon the poore

¹³ Neuerthelesse, when they were sicke I did put on sackcloth: I afflicted my soule with fasting, and my prayer returned into myne owne bosome ¹⁴ I kept them company whersoeuer they went, as though they had ben my frende or brother: I went heauyly, as one that mourned for his mother ¹⁵ But in mine aduersitie they reioysed and gathered them together: yea, the very abiectes came together against me, yer I wyst they rented me a peeces and ceassed not

¹³⁶ (119:8) Ryuers of waters gushe out of myne eyes: because men kepe not thy lawe

³ He is dispised and abhorred of men, he is such a man as hath good experience of sorowes and infirmities: We haue reckened hym so vile, that we hyd our faces from hym

⁹ In their troubles, he was also troubled with them, and the angell that went foorth from his presence deliuered them: of very loue and kindnesse that he had vnto them, he redeemed them, he hath borne them and caried them vp euer since the worlde began

¹ O who wyll geue my head water inough, and a wel of teares for mine eyes, that I may weepe night and day for the slaughter of my people

¹⁷ But if ye wyll not heare me that geue you secrete warnyng, I wyll mourne from my whole heart for your stubburnnesse: Piteously wyll I weepe, and the teares shall gushe out of mine eyes, for the Lordes flocke shalbe caried away captiue

¹⁷ This shalt thou say also vnto them, Mine eyes shall weepe without ceassyng day and nyght: for my people shalbe destroyed with great harme, and shall perishe with a great plague

¹¹ And as they hearde these thynges, he added & spake a parable, because he was nye to Hierusale, & because they thought that the kingdome of God should shortly appeare

⁴¹ And when he was come neare, he behelde the citie, and wept on it

³³ Whe Iesus therfore sawe her weepe, and the Iewes also weepyng which came with her, he groned in the spirite, and was troubled in hym selfe

² That I haue great heauinesse, & continuall sorowe in my heart ³ For I haue wisshed my selfe to be cursed from Christe, for my brethren, my kynsmen as pertaynyng to ye fleshe

¹⁶ For he in no place taketh on hym the Angels: but the seede of Abraham taketh he on hym ¹⁷ Wherfore, in all thinges it became him to be made lyke vnto his brethren, that he myght be mercyfull, and a faythfull hye priest in thynges concernyng God, for to purge the peoples sinnes

²¹ He that hath my commaundementes, and kepeth them, the same is he that loueth me: And he that loueth me, shalbe loued of my father, and I wyll loue him, and wyll shew myne owne selfe to hym ²² Iudas sayth vnto hym, not [Iudas] Iscariot: Lorde, what is done, that thou wylt shewe thy selfe vnto vs, and not vnto the worlde ²³ Iesus aunswered, & sayde vnto hym: If a man loue me, he wyll kepe my sayinges: and my father wyll loue hym, and we wyll come vnto hym, and dwell with hym

¹⁵ So when they had dyned, Iesus saith to Simon Peter: Simon Ioanna, louest thou me more then these? He sayd vnto hym: Yea Lorde, thou knowest that I loue thee. He sayth vnto hym: feede my lambes ¹⁶ He sayth to hym agayne the seconde tyme: Simon Ioanna, louest thou me? He sayth vnto hym: Yea Lorde, thou knowest that I loue thee. He sayde vnto hym: feede my sheepe ¹⁷ He sayde vnto hym the thirde tyme: Simon Ioanna, louest thou me? Peter was sory, because he sayde vnto hym the thirde tyme, louest thou me: And he sayde vnto hym, Lorde thou knowest all thynges, thou knowest that I loue thee. Iesus sayth vnto hym: feede my sheepe

⁸ This say I not by commaundement, but because of ye feruentnesse of other, & alowing the vnfaynednes of your loue ⁹ For ye knowe the grace of our Lorde Iesus Christ, that though he was rich, yet for your sakes he became poore, that ye through his pouertie might be made rich

² And walke ye in loue, euen as Christe hath loued vs, and hath geuen hym selfe for vs an offering and a sacrifice of a sweete smellyng sauour to God

²⁵ Ye husbandes loue your wyues, euen as Christe also loued the Churche, and gaue hym selfe for it

¹ Beholde what loue the father hath shewed on vs, that we shoulde be called the sonnes of god: For this cause the worlde knoweth you not, because it knoweth not hym

⁹ In this appeared the loue of God to vs warde, because God sent his only begotten sonne into the worlde, that we myght lyue through hym ¹⁰ Herein is loue, not that we loued God, but that he loued vs, and sent his sonne to be the agreement for our sinnes

⁵ And from Iesus Christe, which is a faythfull witnesse, and first begotten of the dead, and Lorde ouer the kynges of the earth: Unto hym that loued vs, and wasshed vs from our sinnes in his owne blood

¹⁹ They spake against God: they said, can God prepare a table in the wildernesse ²⁰ Beholde, he hath smytten the stonie rocke, and waters haue gushed out, and streames haue flowed out aboundantly: but can he likewise geue bread, can he prouide fleshe for his people

⁴⁰ And saying: Thou that destroyedst the temple, & buyldest it in three dayes, saue thy selfe. If thou be the sonne of God, come downe from the crosse ⁴¹ Lykewyse also the hye priestes, mockyng hym, with the scribes, and elders, [and pharisees] sayde ⁴² He saued other, hym selfe can he not saue. If he be the kyng of Israel, let him nowe come downe from the crosse, and we wyll beleue hym

³² Let Christe the kyng of Israel descende nowe from the crosse, that we may see, and beleue. And they that were crucified with hym, checked hym also

³⁵ And the people stoode, and behelde: and the rulers mocked him with them, saying: He saued other [men] let hym saue him selfe, if he be very Christe the chosen of God

³⁹ And one of the euyll doers whiche were hanged, rayled on hym, saying: If thou be Christe, saue thy self and vs

⁶ Assoone as he had thus spoke, he spat on the grounde, and made claye of the spittle, and he annoynted with the claye the eyes of the blynde ⁷ And sayde vnto hym: Go, washe thee in the poole of Siloe, whiche by interpretation, is [as much to say, as] sent. He went his way therefore, & washed, and came agayne, seyng

¹⁹ After this dyd Abraham bury Sara his wyfe in the double caue of the fielde that lyeth before Mamre, the same is Hebron in the land of Chanaan

²⁹ And he charged them, and sayde vnto them: When I shalbe gathered vnto my people, bury me with my fathers in the caue that is in the field of Ephron the Hethite ³⁰ In the caue that is in the fielde of Machpelah, which is before Mamre in the lande of Chanaan, which Abraham bought with the fielde of Ephron the Hethite for a possession to bury in ³¹ Where as were buried Abraham and Sara his wyfe, and where as were buried Isahac and Rebecca his wife: & there I buried Lea

¹⁶ What hast thou to do here? and whom hast thou here? that thou shouldest here hewe thee out a sepulchree, as it were one that heweth hym out a sepulchree on hye, or that graueth an habitation for hym selfe on an harde rocke

⁴ And the Lorde sayde vnto hym, Go through the citie, euen through Hierusalem, & set a marke vpon the foreheades of them that mourne, and are sory for all the abhominations that be done therin

⁶ Mourne therfore O thou sonne of man, yea [euen] with the breakyng of thy loynes, mourne bitterly in their presence

⁶⁰ And layde it in his newe tombe, which he had hewen out, euen in the rocke, and rolled a great stone to the dore of the sepulchre, and departed

⁶⁶ So they went, and made the sepulchre sure with the watch, and sealed the stone

¹² And when he had sighed depely in his spirite, he sayth: Why doth this generatio seke a signe? Ueryly I say vnto you, there shall no signe be geue vnto this generation

⁴⁶ And he bought a lynnen cloth, & toke hym downe, and wrapped hym in the lynnen cloth, & layde him in a sepulchre, that was hewe out of the rocke, & roulled a stone vnto the doore of ye sepulchre

² And they founde the stone rolled away from the sepulchre

¹ The first day of ye Sabbothes, came Marie Magdalene early, whe it was yet darke, vnto the sepulchre, and sawe the stone taken awaye from the graue

¹⁹ In the sweatte of thy face shalt thou eate thy breade, tyll thou be turned agayne into the ground, for out of it wast thou taken: For dust thou art, and into dust shalt thou be turned agayne

⁴ I am a straunger and a foriner amongest you: geue me a possession to bury in with you, that I may bury my corse out of my sight

⁷ But no man at all can redeeme his brother: nor geue a raunsome vnto God for hym

⁹ (49:8b) yea though he lyue long and see not the graue

¹⁴ (49:13) They shalbe put into a graue [dead] as a sheepe, death shall feede on them: but the ryghteous shall haue dominion of them in the mornyng, their beautie shall consume away, hell [shall receaue them] from their house

³ And they sayde among them selues, who shall roule vs away the stone from the doore of the sepulchre

¹⁷ Then went Iesus, and founde that he had lyen in his graue, foure dayes alredy

²⁷ Because thou wylt not leaue my soule in hell, neither wylt thou suffer thyne holy one to see corruption

³⁶ For Dauid, after he had serued his tyme, by the wyll of God fell on slepe, and was layde vnto his fathers, and sawe corruption

²¹ Who shall chaunge our vyle body, that it may be fashioned lyke vnto his glorious body, according to the working wherby he is able to subdue all thynges vnto hym selfe

²⁰ And when they arose early in the morning, they gat them out vnto the wildernesse of Thekoa, and as they went out, Iehosaphat stoode and sayd, Heare me O Iuda, and ye inhabiters of Hierusalem: Put your trust in the Lorde your God, that ye may be founde faythfull: Geue credence to his prophetes, and so shall ye prosper

² (63:3) [To see thee] euen so [as] I haue seene thee in the sanctuary: that I might beholde thy power and glory

¹⁶ Let thy worke appeare in thy seruauntes: and thy glory in their children

¹⁴ And the same word became fleshe, and dwelt among vs ( and we sawe the glory of it, as the glory of the only begotten sonne of the father) full of grace and trueth

²³ Iesus sayth vnto her: Thy brother shall ryse agayne ²⁴ Martha sayth vnto hym: I knowe that he shall ryse agayne in the resurrection at the last day ²⁵ Iesus sayth vnto her, I am the resurrection, and the lyfe: He that beleueth on me, yea, though he were dead, yet shall he lyue ²⁶ And whosoeuer lyueth, and beleueth on me, shall neuer dye. Beleuest thou this

⁴¹ Such thynges sayde Esaias, when he sawe his glory, and spake of hym

¹⁷ (As it is written, that I haue made thee a father of many nations) before God, whom he beleued, which restoreth the dead vnto life, and calleth those thynges whiche be not, as though they were ¹⁸ Who contrary to hope, beleued in hope, that he shoulde be the father of many nations, accordyng to that which was spoken: so shall thy seede be ¹⁹ And he faynted not in the fayth, nor considered his owne body nowe dead, when he was almost an hundred yeres old, neither yet the deadnesse o Saraes wombe ²⁰ He stackered not at the promise of God through vnbeliefe: but was strong in fayth, geuyng glorie to God ²¹ And beyng full certified, that what he had promised, he was able also to perfourme ²² And therfore was it reckened to hym for righteousnes ²³ Neuerthelesse, it is not written for hym only, that it was reckened to him ²⁴ But also for vs, to whom it shalbe reckened, so that we beleue on hym that raysed vp Iesus our Lorde from the dead ²⁵ Which was deliuered for our sinnes, and was raysed agayne for our iustification

¹⁸ But we all behold [as] in a mirrour, the glorie of the Lorde, with his face open, and are chaunged vnto the same similitude, from glorie to glorie, euen as of the spirite of the Lorde

⁶ For it is God that commaundeth the lyght to shine out of darknesse, whiche hath shined in our heartes, for to geue the lyght of the knowledge of the glorie of God, in the face of Iesus Christe

¹ I lyft vp myne eyes vnto thee: who dwellest in heauen

²⁵ At that tyme Iesus aunswered and sayde: I thanke thee O father, Lorde of heauen and earth, because thou hast hid these thinges from the wise and prudent, and hast shewed them vnto babes

²¹ That same houre reioyced Iesus in the spirite, and sayde: I confesse vnto thee father, Lorde of heauen & earth, that thou hast hyd these thynges from the wise and prudent, and hast opened them vnto babes: Euen so father, for so it pleased thee

¹³ And the publicane standyng a farre of, woulde not lyft vp his eyes to heauen, but smote vpon his brest, saying: God be mercifull to me a sinner

²⁸ Father, glorifie thy name. Then came there a voyce from heauen [saying] I haue both glorified it, and wyll glorifie it agayne ²⁹ The people therfore that stoode by and hearde it, sayde that it thundred: Other sayde, an Angel spake to hym ³⁰ Iesus aunswered and sayde: This voyce came, not because of me, but for your sakes

⁶ Be carefull for nothyng: but in all thynges, let your petition be manifest vnto God, in prayer and supplication with geuyng of thankes

²² Then was brought to him one possessed with a deuyll, blinde, and dumbe: and he healed him, insomuch that the blinde and dumbe both spake and sawe ²³ And all the people were amased and sayde: Is not this that sonne of Dauid ²⁴ But when the Pharisees hearde it, they sayde: This [felowe] driueth the deuils no otherwise out, but by Beelzebub the prince of the deuils

¹⁷ For God sent not his sonne into the worlde, to condempne the worlde: but that the worlde through hym myght be saued. He that beleueth on hym, is not condempned

³⁸ For I came downe from heauen, not to do that I wyll: but that he wyll, which hath sent me

²⁸ Then cryed Iesus in the temple, as he taught, saying: Ye both knowe me, and whence I am, ye knowe. And I am not come of my selfe: but he that set me is true, whom ye knowe not ²⁹ But I knowe him, for I am of him, and he hath sent me

¹⁶ And if I iudge, my iudgement is true: For I am not alone, but I and the father that sent me

²⁹ And he that sent me, is with me. The father hath not left me alone: For I do alwayes those thynges that please him

⁴² Iesus saide vnto them: Yf God were your father, truely ye woulde loue me: For I proceaded foorth, and came from God: neither came I of my selfe, but he sent me

²⁴ Then agayne called they the man that was blynde, and sayde vnto hym: Geue God the prayse, we knowe that this man is a sinner ²⁵ He aunswered, and sayde: Whether he be a sinner or no, I can not tell: One thyng I am sure of, that wheras I was blynde, nowe I see ²⁶ Then sayde they to hym agayne: What dyd he to thee? Howe opened he thyne eyes ²⁷ He aunswered them: I tolde you yer whyle, and ye dyd not heare. Wherfore woulde ye heare it agayne? Wyll ye also be his disciples ²⁸ Then rayted they hym, and sayde, Be thou his disciple: We are Moyses disciples ²⁹ We are sure, that God spake vnto Moyses: As for this felowe, we knowe not from whence he is ³⁰ The man aunswered, and sayde vnto them: this is a marueylous thyng, that ye wote not from whence he is, and yet he hath opened myne eyes ³¹ For we be sure, that God heareth not sinners: But yf any man be a worshipper of God, and obedient vnto his wyll, hym heareth he ³² Sence the worlde began, was it not hearde, that any man opened the eyes of one that was borne blynde ³³ If this man were not of God, he coulde haue done nothyng ³⁴ They aunswered, & sayde vnto hym: Thou art altogether borne in sinne, and doest thou teache vs? And they cast hym out

³⁶ Say ye of hym whom the father hath sanctified and sent into the worlde, thou blasphemest, because I saide I am the sonne of God ³⁷ Yf I do not the workes of my father, beleue me not ³⁸ But yf I do, and yf ye beleue not me, beleue the workes: that ye may knowe and beleue, that the father is in me, and I in hym

²² Neuerthelesse, nowe I knowe that whatsoeuer thou askest of God, God wyll geue it thee

⁴⁵ Then many of the Iewes which came to Marie, and had seene ye thynges which Iesus dyd, beleued on hym ⁴⁶ But some of them went their wayes to the pharisees, and tolde them what Iesus had done ⁴⁷ Then gathered the hye priestes and the pharisees a councell, and sayde: What do we? For this man doth many miracles ⁴⁸ If we let hym scape thus, all men wyll beleue on him, and the Romaynes shall come, and take away both our rowme and the people ⁴⁹ And one of them named Caiaphas, beyng the hye priest that same yere, sayde vnto them: Ye perceaue nothyng at all ⁵⁰ Nor consider, that it is expedient for vs, that one man dye for the people, and not that all the people perishe

²⁷ Nowe is my soule troubled, and what shall I say? Father, saue me from this houre: but therfore came I into this houre

⁸ For I haue geuen vnto them ye wordes which thou gauest me, and they haue receaued them, and haue knowe surely that I came out from thee, & they haue beleued, that thou dyddest sende me

²¹ That they all may be one, as thou father art in me, and I in thee, and that they also may be one in vs: that ye world may beleue, that thou hast sent me

²⁵ O ryghteous father, the worlde [also] hath not knowen thee: But I haue knowen thee, and these haue knowen that thou hast sent me

³¹ These are written, that ye myght beleue that Iesus is Christe the sonne of God, and that in beleuyng, ye myght haue lyfe through his name

³ For what the lawe coulde not do, in as much as it was weake through the fleshe, God sendyng his owne sonne, in the similitude of sinfull fleshe, euen by sinne, condempned sinne in the fleshe

⁴ But when the fulnesse of the tyme was come, God sent his sonne, made of a woman, and made vnder the lawe

⁷ Which in the dayes of his fleshe, when he had offered vp prayers and supplications with strong crying and teares, vnto hym that was able to saue hym from death, and was hearde in that which he feared

²⁵ Wherefore he is able also euer to saue them to the vttermost that come vnto God by hym, seyng he euer lyueth to make intercession for them

¹⁴ And we haue seene, and do testifie that the father sent the sonne to be the sauiour of the worlde

²¹ And he stretched him selfe vpon the childe three tymes, and called vnto the Lorde, and saide: O Lorde my God, I pray thee let this childes soule come into him againe ²² And the Lord heard the voyce of Elias, & the soule of the childe came into him againe, and he reuiued

³³ He went in therefore, & shut the doore vpon them twayne, & prayed vnto the Lorde ³⁴ And went vp, and laye vpon the lad, and put his mouth on his mouth, & his eyes vpon his eyes, & his handes vpon his handes, & when he so laye vpon the childe, the fleshe of the childe waxed warme ³⁵ And he went againe, and walked once vp and downe in the house, & then went vp, & layde him selfe vpon him againe: And then the childe gasped seue times, and opened his eyes ³⁶ And he called Gehezi, and saide: Call for this Sunamite. So he called her: which when she was come in vnto him, he saide vnto her: Take thy sonne

⁴¹ And they feared exceadyngly, and sayde one to another: Who is this? For both wynde and sea obey hym

⁶ Then sayde Peter: Syluer and golde haue I none, but such as I haue, geue I thee: In the name of Iesus Christe of Nazareth, ryse vp, and walke

¹² And when Peter sawe that, he aunswered vnto the people: Ye men of Israel, why maruayle ye at this, or why loke ye so on vs, as though by our owne power or godlynesse, we had made this man to go

³⁴ And Peter sayde vnto hym, Eneas, Iesus Christe make thee whole: aryse, and make thy bedde. And he arose immediatly

⁴⁰ And Peter put them all foorth, and kneled downe, and prayed, and turned hym to the body, and sayde: Tabitha aryse. And she opened her eyes, and when she sawe Peter, she sate vp

³ And God sayde, let there be light: and there was light

⁶ The Lord kylleth and maketh alyue, bryngeth downe to the graue & fetcheth vp agayne

⁹ For he spake and it was: he commauded, and it was brought to passe

⁴³ And he charged them straytly, that no man shoulde knowe of it: and commaunded to geue her meate

¹⁵ And he that was dead, sate vp, and began to speake: And he delyuered hym to his mother

²⁵ Ueryly veryly I saye vnto you, the houre shall come, and nowe is, when the dead shall heare the voyce of the sonne of God: And they that heare, shall lyue

³⁰ I and my father are one

⁴⁰ Then toke they the body of Iesus, & wounde it in linnen clothes, with the odours, as the maner of the Iewes is to burie

⁵ And when he had stowped downe, he sawe the linnen clothes lying, yet went he not in

⁷ And the napkin yt was about his head not lying with the linnen clothes, but wrapped together in a place by it selfe

⁹ And there sate in a window a certaine young man, named Eutychus, being fallen into a deepe sleepe: And as Paul was long reasonyng, he was the more ouercome with sleepe, and fell downe from the thirde loft, and was taken vp dead ¹⁰ But whe Paul went downe, he fell on hym, and imbraced hym, & saide: make nothyng a do, for his lyfe is in hym ¹¹ And so when he was come vp againe, and had broken bread and eaten, & talked a long while, euen tyll the morning, and so he departed ¹² And they brought the young man alyue, and were not a litle comforted

¹⁸ And am alyue, and was dead: And beholde, I am alyue for euermore, Amen, and haue the keyes of hell and of death

²³ When he was in Hierusalem at the Passouer, in the feast day, many beleued on his name, when they sawe his miracles which he dyd

³¹ Many of the people beleued on hym, and saide: When Christe commeth, wyl he do mo miracles [then these] that this man hath done

⁴¹ And many resorted vnto hym, and sayde: Iohn dyd no miracle, but all thynges that Iohn spake of this man were true

⁹ Much people of the Iewes therfore had knowledge that he was there. And they came not for Iesus sake only: but that they might se Lazarus also, who he raysed from death ¹⁰ But the hye priestes helde a councell, that they myght put Lazarus to death also ¹¹ Because that for his sake, many of the Iewes went away, and beleued on Iesus

¹⁷ The people that was with him, when he called Lazarus out of his graue, and raysed hym from death, bare recorde ¹⁸ Therfore met hym the people also, because they hearde that he had done such a miracle ¹⁹ The pharisees therfore sayde among them selues: perceaue ye, howe ye preuayle nothyng? Beholde, [all the whole] worlde goeth after hym

⁴² Neuerthelesse, among ye chiefe rulers also, many beleued on hym: But because of the pharisees, they dyd not confesse hym, lest they should be excomunicate

³⁰ And he sayde, nay father Abraham: but yf one come vnto them from the dead, they wyll repent ³¹ He sayde vnto hym: If they heare not Moyses & the prophetes, neither wyll they beleue, though one rose from death agayne

¹⁵ The man departed, & tolde the Iewes that it was Iesus which had made him whole ¹⁶ And therefore the Iewes dyd persecute Iesus, and sought [the meanes] to slea hym, because he hadde done these thynges on the Sabboth day

¹³ They brought to the pharisees, hym that a litle before was blynde

³⁷ But though he had done so many miracles before them, yet beleued not they on hym

²⁵ Then came one and shewed them, saying: Beholde, the men that ye put in pryson, stande in the temple, and teache the people

² The kynges of the earth stande vp: and the rulers take counsell together against god, and against his annointed ³ Let vs breake [say they] their bondes a sunder: and cast away their cordes from vs ⁴ He that dwelleth in heauen wyll laugh them to scorne: the Lorde wyll haue them in derision

²² But I say vnto you, that who so euer is angry with his brother, vnaduisedly, shalbe in daunger of iudgement. And who so euer shall say vnto his brother, racha, shalbe in daunger of a councell: But, whosoeuer shall saye (thou) foole, shalbe in daunger of hell fire

³ Then assembled together the chiefe priestes, and the scribes, and the elders of the people, vnto the palace of the hye prieste, which was called Caiaphas

¹ When the mornyng was come, all the chiefe priestes, and the elders of the people, helde a councell agaynst Iesus to put hym to death ² And brought hym bounde, and deliuered hym to Pontius Pilate the deputie

¹ After two dayes was [the feaste] of the Passouer, & of vnleuened bread. And the hye priestes and the scribes, sought howe they myght take him by craft, and put hym to death

² And ye hie priestes and scribes sought howe they myght kyll hym, for they feared the people

⁵⁷ The hye priestes and pharisees had geuen a commaundement, that yf any man knewe where he were, he shoulde shewe it, that they myght take hym

¹⁹ The pharisees therfore sayde among them selues: perceaue ye, howe ye preuayle nothyng? Beholde, [all the whole] worlde goeth after hym

⁵ And it came to passe on the morowe, that their rulers, and elders, & scribes ⁶ And Annas the chiefe priest, and Caiaphas, and Iohn, and Alexander, and as many as were of the kynrede of the hye priestes, were gathered together at Hierusalem

¹⁶ Saying: What shall we do to these men? For a manifest signe is done by them, and is openly knowen to all them that dwell in Hierusalem, and we can not denie it ¹⁷ But that it be noysed no farther among the people, let vs threaten and charge them that they speake hencefoorth to no man in this name

²⁷ And of a trueth, agaynst thy holye chylde Iesus, who thou hast anoynted, both Herode and also Pontius Pilate, with the Gentiles, and the people of Israel, gathered them selues together ²⁸ For to do whatsoeuer thy hande & thy counsel determined before to be done

²¹ And when they hearde that, they entred into the temple early in ye mornyng, and taught: But the chiefe priest came, and they that were with hym, & called a counsayle together, and all the elders of the chyldren of Israel, and sent to the pryson to fet them

²⁴ Then when the chiefe priest and the ruler of the temple, and the hye priestes hearde these thynges, they doubted of them, whervnto this woulde growe

⁵⁰ A nation of a shamelesse and cruell countenaunce, whiche shall not regarde the person of the olde, nor haue compassion on the young ⁵¹ The same shall eate the fruite of thy cattell, and the fruite of thy lande, vntill he haue destroyed thee: and shall leaue thee neither corne, wyne, nor oyle, neither the encrease of thy kine, nor the flockes of thy sheepe, vntyll he haue brought thee to naught ⁵² And he shall kepe thee in, in all the cities, vntyll he haue cast downe thy hye walles and strong holdes, wherin thou trustedst, throughout all the lande: And he shall besiege thee in al thy cities thorowout all the lande whiche the Lorde thy God hath geuen thee ⁵³ And thou shalt eate the fruite of thine owne body, the fleshe of thy sonnes, and of thy daughters, which the Lord thy God hath geuen thee, in that straitnesse and siege, wherewith thyne enemie shall inclose thee ⁵⁴ So that it shall greeue the man (that is tender and exceeding delicate among you) to loke on his brother, and vpon his wyfe that lieth in his bosome, and on the remnaunt of his chyldren which he hath yet left ⁵⁵ For feare of geuyng vnto any of them of the fleshe of his chyldren, whom he shall eate: because he hath nothyng left hym in that straitnesse and siege, wherwith thine enemie shall besiege thee in all thy cities ⁵⁶ Yea, and the woman that is so tender and delicate, that she dare not aduenture to set the sole of her foote vpon the grounde, for softnesse and tendernesse, shalbe greeued to loke on her husbande that lieth in her bosome, & on her sonne, and on her daughter ⁵⁷ And on her afterbyrth that is come out from betweene her feete, and her chyldren whiche she shall beare: For when all thinges lacke, she shall eate them secretly, duryng the siege & straitnesse wherewith thyne enemies shall besiege thee in thy cities ⁵⁸ If thou wylt not kepe and do all the wordes of this lawe that are written in this booke, and feare this glorious and fearefull name, The Lorde thy God ⁵⁹ The Lord wyll sende vnto thee and thy seede, great plagues, and of long continuaunce, euyll sicknesses, and of long duraunce ⁶⁰ Moreouer, he will bryng vpon thee all the diseases of Egypt, and those whiche thou wast afrayde of shall cleaue vnto thee ⁶¹ And all maner sicknesses, and all maner plagues whiche are not written in the booke of this lawe, wyll the Lorde bryng vpon thee, vntyll he bryng thee to naught ⁶² And ye shalbe lefte fewe in number, where before ye were as the starres of heauen in multitude: because thou wouldest not hearken vnto the voyce of the Lorde thy God ⁶³ And it shall come to passe, that as the Lord reioyced ouer you, to do you good, and to multiplie you: euen so he will reioyce ouer you, to destroy you, & to bring you to naught, and ye shalbe wasted from of the lande whyther thou goest to enioy it ⁶⁴ And the Lord shal scatter thee among all nations, from the one ende of the worlde vnto the other: and there thou shalt serue straunge gods, whiche thou nor thy fathers haue knowen, euen wood and stone ⁶⁵ And among these nations thou shalt finde no ease, neither shall the sole of thy foote haue rest: But the Lorde shal geue thee there an vnquiet heart, and dasing eyes, and sorowe of minde ⁶⁶ And thy life shall hang in doubt before thee, and thou shalt feare both day and nyght, and shalt haue none assurannce of thy lyfe ⁶⁷ In the morning thou shalt say, would God it were nyght: And at nyght thou shalt say, would God it were mornyng, for feare of thyne heart whiche thou shalt feare, and for the sight of thyne eyes whiche thou shalt see ⁶⁸ And the Lorde shall bryng thee into Egypt agayne with shippes by the way whiche I sayde to thee, thou shalt see it no more againe: And there ye shalbe solde vnto your enemies for bondmen and bondwomen, and no man shall bye you

²⁶ After these threescore & two weekes shall Messiah be slaine, & not for him selfe: and the people of the prince that shal come, shall destroy the citie and the sanctuarie, and the ende thereof shalbe with a fludde, and vnto the ende of the battel it shalbe destroyed by desolatios ²⁷ He shall confirme the couenaunt with many for one weeke, and in the midst of the weeke he shall cause the sacrifice and the oblation to ceasse, and for the ouerspreading of the abhominations, he shal make it desolate, [euen] vntil the consummation determined shalbe powred vpon the desolate

⁷ Aryse O thou sworde vpon my shephearde, and vpon the man that is my felow, saith the lord of hoastes: smite the shepheard, & the sheepe shalbe scattred abroade: and so wyll I turne my hande to the litle ones ⁸ And it shall come to passe saith the Lorde, that in all the lande two partes shalbe rooted out, but the third part shall remayne therein

¹ Beholde, the day of the Lorde commeth, and thy spoyle shalbe deuided in the middest of thee ² For I wyll gather together all the heathen to fight against Hierusalem, so that the citie shalbe wonne, the houses spoyled, and the women defiled: the halfe of the citie shall go away into captiuitie, and the residue of the people shal not be caryed out of the citie

⁴⁰ When the Lorde therfore of the vineyarde commeth, what wyll he do vnto those husbande men ⁴¹ They sayde vnto hym: He wyll miserably destroy those wicked [men] & wyll let out his vineyard vnto other husband men, which shall delyuer him the fruite in due seasons ⁴² Iesus sayth vnto them. Did ye neuer reade in the Scriptures: The stone which the buylders refused, the same is become the head of the corner. This is the Lordes doing, and it is marueylous in our eyes

⁷ But when the kyng hearde [therof], he was wroth, and sent foorth his men of warre, and destroyed those murtherers and brent vp their citie

³⁵ That vpon you may come all the ryghteous blood, which hath ben shed vpon the earth, from the blood of ryghteous Abel, vnto the blood of Zacharias, sonne of Barachias, whom ye slewe betwene the temple & the aulter ³⁶ Ueryly I say vnto you: all these thynges shal come vpon this generatio ³⁷ O Hierusalem, Hierusalem, thou that kyllest the prophetes, and stonest them which are sent vnto thee: Howe often woulde I haue gathered thy chyldren together, euen as the henne gathereth her chickens vnder her wynges, and ye woulde not ³⁸ Beholde, your house is left vnto you desolate

²⁵ Then aunswered all the people, and sayde: His blood be on vs, and on our chyldren

¹² Those that are besyde the way, are they that heare: then commeth the deuyll, and taketh away the worde out of their heartes, lest they shoulde beleue, and be saued

⁵² Wo vnto you lawyers: for ye haue taken away the keye of knowledge, ye entred not in your selues, and them that came in, ye forbad

⁴¹ And when he was come neare, he behelde the citie, and wept on it ⁴² Saying: If thou haddest knowen those thynges whiche belong vnto thy peace, euen in this thy day: But nowe are they hyd from thyne eyes ⁴³ For the dayes shall come vpon thee, that thyne enemies also shall caste a banke about thee, and compasse thee rounde, and kepe thee in on euery syde ⁴⁴ And make thee euen with ye grounde, and thy chyldren which are in thee: and they shall not leaue in thee one stone vpo another, because thou knowest not the tyme of thy visitation

²⁰ And whe ye see Hierusalem besieged with an hoast, then be sure that the desolation of the same is nye ²¹ Then let them which are in Iurie, flee to the mountaynes, and let them which are in the myddes of it, depart out: and let not them that are in other countreys enter therin ²² For these be the dayes of vengeaunce, that all thinges which are written, may be fulfylled ²³ But wo vnto the that are with childe, & to them that geue sucke in those days: For there shalbe great distresse in the lande, and wrath ouer this people ²⁴ And they shall fall through the edge of the sworde, and shalbe led away captiue into all nations: And Hierusalem shalbe troden downe of the gentiles, vntyll the tyme of the gentiles be fulfylled

²⁸ But Iesus turned backe vnto them, and sayde: [Ye] daughters of Hierusalem, wepe not for me, but wepe for your selues, and for your chyldren ²⁹ For beholde, the dayes wyll come, in the which they shal say : Happy are the barren, & the wombes that neuer bare, & the pappes which neuer gaue sucke ³⁰ Then shall they begin to say to the mountaynes, fall on vs, & to the hylles, couer vs ³¹ For if they do these thinges in a greene tree, what shalbe done in the drye

⁷ The same came for a witnesse, to beare witnesse of the lyght, that all men through hym myght beleue

²⁸ Saying: dyd not we strayghtly commaunde you, that ye shoulde not teache in this name? And beholde, ye haue fylled Hierusalem with your doctrine, and intende to bryng this mans blood vpon vs

³⁸ And nowe I saye vnto you, refrayne your selues fro these men, and let them alone: For yf this counsell or this worke be of men, it wyll come to naught ³⁹ But and yf it be of God, ye can not destroy it, lest haply ye be founde to stryue agaynst God ⁴⁰ And to hym agreed the other: And when they had called the Apostles, they beat them, and commaunded that they shoulde not speake in the name of Iesu, and let them go

¹⁵ Who both kylled the Lorde Iesus, and their owne prophetes, & haue persecuted vs: and God they please not, and are contrarie to all men ¹⁶ And hynder vs to speake to the gentiles that they myght be saued, to fulfyll their sinnes alway. For the wrath [of God] is come on them to the vtmost

¹² If thou seest a man that is wise in his owne conceipt: there is more hope in a foole, then in hym

²⁰ Wo be vnto them that call euyll good, and good euyll, which make darknesse lyght, and lyght darknesse, that make sowre sweete, and sweete sowre ²¹ Wo be vnto them that are wise in their owne syght, and thynke them selues to haue vnderstandyng ²² Wo be vnto them that are strong to suppe out wine, and expert men to set vp drunkennesse ²³ Wo be vnto them that geue sentence with the vngodly for rewardes, but condempne the iust cause of the ryghteous

² When Annas and Caiaphas were the hye priestes, the worde of the Lorde came vnto Iohn, the sonne of Zacharias, in the wyldernesse

⁴⁸ Doth any of the rulers or of the pharisees beleue on hym ⁴⁹ But this [common] people which know not the lawe, are cursed

⁵¹ This spake he, not of hym selfe, but beyng hye priest that same yere, he prophesied that Iesus shoulde dye for the people

¹³ And led hym away to Annas first, (for he was father in lawe vnto Caiaphas,) which was ye hye priest that same yere: [And Annas sent Christe bounde vnto Caiaphas the hye priest. ¹⁴ Caiaphas was he which gaue councell to the Iewes, that it was expediet that one man should dye for the people

⁶ And Annas the chiefe priest, and Caiaphas, and Iohn, and Alexander, and as many as were of the kynrede of the hye priestes, were gathered together at Hierusalem

²⁰ Where is the wise? where is ye scribe? where is the disputer of this worlde? Hath not God made the wisedome of this worlde foolyshenesse

⁶ And we speake wisedome among the that are perfite: not the wisedome of this world, neither of the princes of this world, which come to naught

¹⁸ Let no man deceaue him selfe. Yf any man among you seeme to be wise in this worlde, let hym be a foole, that he may be wyse ¹⁹ For the wisedome of this worlde, is foolishnesse with God. For it is writte: He compasseth the wise in their own craftynesse

⁴⁶ And sayde vnto them: Thus is it written, and thus it behoued Christe to suffer, and to rise agayne from death the thirde day

⁴⁸ If we let hym scape thus, all men wyll beleue on him, and the Romaynes shall come, and take away both our rowme and the people

¹⁴ Caiaphas was he which gaue councell to the Iewes, that it was expediet that one man should dye for the people

¹² And from thencefoorth sought Pilate [meanes] to loose hym. But the Iewes cryed, saying: Yf thou let hym go, thou art not Caesers friend. For whosoeuer maketh hym selfe a kyng, speaketh agaynst Caesar

⁸ And not rather (as men speake euyll of vs, and as some affirme that we say) let vs do euyll, that good may come therof? Whose dampnation is iuste

³⁰ And thou shalt put in the brestlap of iudgment the Urim & the Thummim, and they shalbe [euen] vpo Aarons heart whe he goeth in before the Lord: and Aaron shall beare the iudgement of the children of Israel vpon his heart before the Lorde alway

²⁸ And the Lorde opened the mouth of the asse, and she sayde vnto Balaam: What haue I done vnto thee, that thou hast smytten me nowe three tymes

² And Balaam lift vp his eyes, and loked vpon Israel as he lay accordyng to his tribes, and the spirite of God came vpon hym

¹⁴ And nowe behold, I go vnto my people: Come therfore, and I wyll aduertise thee what this people shall do to thy folke in the latter dayes ¹⁵ And he toke vp his parable and sayd: Balaam the sonne of Beor hath sayde, the man whose eye is open, hath sayde ¹⁶ He hath said that heareth the wordes of God, and hath the knowledge of the most hygh, and beholdeth the vision of the almightie, and that falleth and his eyes are opened ¹⁷ I shall see him, but not nowe, I shall beholde him, but not nigh: There shall come a starre of Iacob, and ryse a scepter of Israel, & shall smyte the coastes of Moab, and vndermine all the chyldren of Seth ¹⁸ And Edom shalbe possessed, & Seir shall fall to the possession of their enemies, and Israel shall do manfully ¹⁹ Out of Iacob shall come he that shall haue dominion, and shall destroy the remnaunt of the citie ²⁰ And when he loked on Amaleck, he toke vp his parable, and said: Amaleck is the first of the nations, but his latter ende shall perishe vtterly ²¹ And he loked on the Kenites, and toke vp his parable, and sayde: Strong is thy dwelling place, and thou puttest thy nest in a rocke ²² Neuerthelesse, the Kenite shalbe rooted out, vntyll Assur take thee prisoner ²³ And he toke vp his parable, and sayd: Alas, who shall lyue when God doth this ²⁴ The shippes also shall come out of the coast of Chittim, and subdue Assur, and subdue Eber, and he hym selfe shall perishe at the last ²⁵ And Balaam rose vp, and went and returned to his place: and Balac also went his way

²⁷ And the children of Israel asked the Lord: (for there was the arke of the appoyntment of God, in those dayes ²⁸ And Phinehes the sonne of Eleazar, the sonne of Aaron stoode before it at that time) saying: Shal I get me vp to go out any more to battell against the children of Beniamin my brethren, or shal I ceasse? The Lorde sayde: Go vp, for to morow I wil deliuer them into your handes

⁹ And Dauid hauing knowledge that Saul imagined mischiefe agaynst him, sayde to Abiathar the priest: Bring the Ephod

⁶ And when Saul asked councell of the Lorde, the Lorde aunswered him not, neither by dreames, nor by Urim, nor yet by prophetes

⁵ Wheras he [notwithstandyng] was wounded for our offences, and smitten for our wickednesse: for the payne of our punishment was layde vpon hym, and with his stripes are we healed ⁶ As for vs we are all gone astray lyke sheepe, euery one hath turned his owne way: but the Lord hath throwen vpon hym all our sinnes ⁷ He suffered violence, and was euyll intreated, and dyd not open his mouth: He shalbe led as a sheepe to be slayne, yet shall he be as styll as a lambe before the shearer, and not open his mouth ⁸ From the prison and iudgement was he taken, and his generation who can declare? for he was cut of from the grounde of the lyuyng, which punishment dyd go vpon hym for the transgression of my people

²⁶ After these threescore & two weekes shall Messiah be slaine, & not for him selfe: and the people of the prince that shal come, shall destroy the citie and the sanctuarie, and the ende thereof shalbe with a fludde, and vnto the ende of the battel it shalbe destroyed by desolatios

²² Many wyll say to me in that day, Lorde Lorde, haue we not prophesied thorowe thy name? and thorowe thy name haue cast out deuyls? & done many great workes thorowe thy name ²³ And then wyll I confesse vnto them, I neuer knewe you: Depart from me, ye that worke iniquitie

²⁸ Euen as the sonne of man came, not to be ministred vnto, but to minister, and to geue his lyfe a raunsome for many

¹⁵ As the father knoweth me, euen so, knowe I also the father: And I geue my lyfe for the sheepe

²⁵ Whom God hath set foorth to be a propitiatio, through fayth in his blood, to declare his ryghteousnes, in that he forgeueth the sinnes that are past ²⁶ Which God dyd suffer, to shew at this tyme his righteousnes, that he might be iuste, & the iustifier of hym which beleueth on Iesus

² And though I coulde prophesie, and vnderstoode all secretes, and all knowledge: Yea, if I had all fayth, so that I coulde moue mountaynes out of their places, and haue not loue, I were nothyng

²¹ For he hath made him to be sinne for vs, whiche knewe no sinne, that we shoulde be made the ryghteousnesse of God in hym

¹³ Christe hath redeemed vs from the curse of the lawe, beyng made a curse for vs. For it is written: Cursed is euery one that hangeth on tree

⁴ But when the fulnesse of the tyme was come, God sent his sonne, made of a woman, and made vnder the lawe ⁵ To redeeme them that were vnder the lawe, that we myght receaue the adoption of chyldren

²⁴ Which his owne selfe bare our sinnes in his body on the tree, that we beyng deliuered from sinne, shoulde liue vnto ryghteousnes: By whose strypes ye were healed

¹⁸ Forasmuch as Christe hath once suffered for sinnes, the iust for the vniust to bryng vs to God, and was kylled as parteynyng to the fleshe, but was quickened in the spirite

¹⁵ Which haue forsaken the ryght waye, and are gone astray, folowyng the way of Balaam the sonne of Bosor, which loued the rewarde of vnrighteousnesse ¹⁶ But was rebuked of his iniquitie. The dumbe beast, and vsed to the yoke, speaking with mans voyce, forbad the madnesse of the prophete ¹⁷ These are welles without water, cloudes that are caryed with a tempest, to whom the mist of darknesse is reserued for euer

¹⁰ The scepter shal not depart from Iuda, and a law geuer from betweene his feete, vntyll Silo come: And vnto hym shall the gatheryng of the people be

¹⁵ My strength is dried vp like a potsheard, & my tongue cleaueth to my gummes: and thou hast brought me into the dust of death

²⁷ (22:26) All the endes of the worlde shall remember them selues and be turned vnto God: and all the kinredes of the nations shall worshyp before thy face

¹⁹ (72:19a) And blessed be the name of his maiestie for euer: and all the earth shalbe fylled with his maiestie. Amen, Amen

²² (102:20a) When people were gathered together, & kyngdomes to serue God ²³ (102:20b) he afflicted my strength in the way, he shortened my dayes

¹⁰ And in that day shall the gentiles enquire after the roote of Iesse, whiche shalbe set vp for a token vnto the people, and his rest shalbe glorious ¹¹ At the same time shall the Lord take in hande agayne to recouer the remnaunt of his people, whiche shalbe left aliue from the Assirians, Egyptians, Arabians, Morians, Elamites, Chaldees, Antiochians, & from the Ilandes of the sea ¹² And he shall set vp a token among the gentiles, and gather together the dispearsed of Israel, yea and the outcastes of Iuda from the foure corners of the worlde

⁶ And he sayde: It is but a small thyng that thou art my seruaunt to set vp the kinredes of Iacob, and to restore the destruction of Israel: For I haue made thee the lyght of the gentiles, that thou mayest be my health vnto the ende of the worlde

¹⁸ Lift vp thine eyes and loke about thee, all these gather them together and come to thee: As truely as I lyue saith the Lorde, thou shalt put them all vpon thee as an apparell, and girde them to thee as a bride doth her iewels

⁵ Lo, thou shalt call an vnknowen people: and a people that had no knowledge of thee shall runne vnto thee, because of the Lorde thy God and the holy one of Israel which glorifieth thee

⁸ Thus saith the Lorde God which gathereth together the scattered of Israel: I wyll bryng yet an other congregation to hym

⁴ Lift vp thyne eyes, and loke rounde about thee: all these gather them selues and come to thee, thy sonnes shall come vnto thee from farre, and thy daughters shall gather them selues to thee on euery side

¹⁶ Therfore tell them, thus saith the God: Although I sende them farre of among the gentiles, and scatter them among the nations, yet wyll I be to them as a litle sanctuarie in the landes where they shall come ¹⁷ Tell them also, thus saith the Lorde God, I wyll gather you agayne out of the nations, and bryng you from the countreis where ye be scattered, and I wyll geue you the lande of Israel agayne

¹² Lyke as a shephearde when he hath ben among the flocke, seeketh after the sheepe that are scattered abroade: euen so wyll I seeke after my sheepe, and deliuer them out of all places where they haue ben scattered, in the cloudie and darke day

¹⁰ Yet the number of the chyldren of Israel shalbe as the sand of the sea, which can neither be measured nor tolde: and in the place where it was sayde vnto them, Ye are not my people: it shall be saide vnto them, Ye are the chyldren of the liuing God

³¹ When the sonne of man shall come in his glorie, and all the holy Angels with hym, then shall he sitte vpon the throne of his glorie ³² And before hym shalbe gathered all nations: and he shall seperate them one from another, as a shephearde deuideth his sheepe from the goates ³³ And he shall set the sheepe on his right hande, but the goates on the lefte ³⁴ Then shall the king say vnto them on his right hande: Come ye blessed of my father, inherite the kyngdome, prepared for you from the foundation of the worlde

³² A light to be reuealed to the gentiles, and the glory of thy people Israel

²⁹ The next day, Iohn seeth Iesus comming vnto hym, and saith, beholde the lambe of God, which taketh away the sinne of the worlde

¹⁶ And other sheepe I haue, which are not of this folde: them also must I bryng, & they shall heare my voyce, and there shalbe one folde, and one sheepehearde

³² And I, yf I were lyft vp from the earth, wyll drawe all men vnto me

¹⁰ For I am with thee, and no man shal inuade thee to hurt thee. For I haue much people in this citie

²⁹ Is he the God of the Iewes only? Is he not also of the Gentiles? Yes, euen of the Gentiles also

²⁹ For those which he knewe before, he also dyd predestinate, that they shoulde be lyke fashioned vnto the shape of his sonne, that he myght be ye first begotten among many brethren ³⁰ Moreouer, whom he dyd predestinate, the also he called. And whom he called, them also he iustified: And whom he iustified, them he also glorified

²⁵ As he sayth also in Osee: I wyll call them my people, which were not my people: and her beloued, which was not beloued ²⁶ And it shall come to passe, that in the place where it was sayde vnto them: Ye are not my people, there shall they be called ye chyldren of the lyuyng God

⁵ Who hath predestinate vs into the adoption of childre, by Iesus Christ vnto hym selfe, according to the good pleasure of his wyll

⁹ And hath opened vnto vs the misterie of his wyll, accordyng to his good pleasure which he had purposed in himselfe ¹⁰ That in the dispensation of the fulnesse of the tymes, he myght gather together in one all thinges in Christe, both which are in heauen, and which are in earth, in hym

¹⁴ For he is our peace, which hath made both one: and hath broken downe the wall that was a stoppe betwene vs ¹⁵ Taking away in his flesshe the hatred, [euen] the lawe of commaundementes, [conteyned] in ordinaunces, for to make of twayne one newe man in hym selfe, so makyng peace ¹⁶ And that he myght reconcile both vnto God in one body through [his] crosse, and slewe hatred thereby ¹⁷ And came and preached peace to you which were a farre of, and to them that were nye ¹⁸ For through hym, we both haue an entraunce in one spirite vnto the father ¹⁹ Nowe therefore, ye are no more straungers and foreyners: but citezins with the saintes, and of the housholde of God ²⁰ And are built vpon the foundation of the apostles and prophetes, Iesus Christe hym selfe beyng the head corner stone ²¹ In whom all the buyldyng coupled together, groweth vnto an holy temple in the Lorde ²² In whom ye also are buylded together for an habitation of God through the spirite

¹¹ According to ye eternall purpose which he wrought in Christe Iesus our Lord

²⁰ And by hym to reconcile all thynges vnto hym selfe, & to set at peace through the blood of his crosse by hym, both the thynges in earth, and thynges in heauen ²¹ And you which were sometyme straungers, and enemies, by cogitation in euyll workes, hath he nowe yet reconciled ²² In the body of his fleshe, through death, to present you holye, and vnblameable, & without fault in his syght ²³ If ye continue grounded & stablisshed in the fayth, and be not moued away from the hope of the Gospell, which ye haue hearde howe it is preached to euery creature which is vnder heauen, wherof I Paul am made a minister

¹³ But we are bounde to geue thankes alway to God for you, brethren beloued of the Lorde, because that God hath fro the begynnyng chosen you to saluation in sanctifiyng of the spirite, & [in] fayth of the trueth ¹⁴ Wherevnto he called you by our Gospell, to the obteyning of the glorie of our Lorde Iesus Christe

¹ Iames a seruaunt of God, and of the lorde Iesus Christ, to ye twelue tribes which are scattred abroade, greetyng

¹ Peter, an Apostle of Iesus Christ, to them that dwell here and there as straungers, throughout Pontus, Galatia, Cappadocia, Asia, and Bithynia

² And he is ye attonement for our sinnes: not for our sinnes only, but also for the sinnes of all the worlde

⁹ And they song a newe song, saying: Thou art worthy to take the booke and to open the seales therof: for thou wast kylled, and hast redeemed vs to God by thy blood, out of al kinrede, and tongue, and people, and nation

⁹ After this I behelde, and loe a great multitude which no man could number of all nations, and kinredes, and people, and tongues, stoode before the throne, and before the lambe, clothed with long whyte garmentes, and palmes in their handes ¹⁰ And cryed with a loude voyce, saying: Saluation be ascribed to hym that sitteth vpon the throne of our God, and vnto the lambe

¹⁶ And from that time foorth, the halfe part of the young men dyd the labour, and the other halfe part of them helde the speares, shieldes, bowes, and brestplates: and the rulers stoode behinde all the house of Iuda

²¹ Then reproued I them sore, and sayde vnto them: Why tary ye all night about the wall? If ye do it once againe, I will lay handes vpon you: From that time foorth came they no more on the Sabbath

² The kynges of the earth stande vp: and the rulers take counsell together against god, and against his annointed

¹³ For I haue hearde the villanie of the multitude, and feare was on euery side [me]: whyle they conspired together against me, [and] toke their counsell to take away my life

¹⁰ (71:9) For myne enemies speake against me: and they that lay awayte for my soule take their counsayle together

⁴ For the loue that I bare vnto them, they are become mine aduersaries: but I geue my selfe vnto prayer ⁵ Thus haue they rewarded me euyll for good: and hatred for my good wyll

² Blessed be the name of God: from this time foorth for euermore

⁴ Then saide the princes vnto the kyng, Sir, we beseche you let this man be put to death: for thus he discourageth the handes of the souldiours that be in this citie, and the handes of all the people, when he speaketh such wordes vnto them: This man laboureth not for peace of the people, but mischiefe

¹⁵ Then Ieremie aunswered Zedekia, If I be playne vnto thee, thou wylt cause me to suffer death: yf I geue thee counsayle, thou wylt not folowe me

²¹ From that tyme foorth, began Iesus to shewe vnto his disciples, howe that he must go vnto Hierusalem, and suffer many thynges of the elders, and hye priestes, & scribes, and [must] be kylled, and be raysed agayne the thyrde day

⁴⁶ And no man was able to aunswere hym a worde: neither durst any man (from that day foorth) aske hym any mo questions

⁵⁹ The chiefe priestes, and elders, and all the councell, sought false witnesse agaynst Iesus, for to put hym to death

⁶ And the pharisees departed, and strayghtway gathered a councell, with the Herodians, agaynst hym, that they myght destroy hym

⁴⁷ Then gathered the hye priestes and the pharisees a councell, and sayde: What do we? For this man doth many miracles

¹⁰ But the hye priestes helde a councell, that they myght put Lazarus to death also

³³ When they hearde that, they claue asunder, and sought meanes to slea the

²³ And after that many dayes were fulfilled, the Iewes toke counsell together to kyll hym

²³ And after the tyme of two yeres, Absalom had sheepe shearers in the playne of Hazor beside Ephraim, & bade all the kinges sonnes

¹⁹ And Abia folowed after Ieroboam, and toke cities from him, Bethel with the townes belonging thereto, Iesana with the townes that belonged thereto, and Ephron with her townes

¹ Assoone as the Lord knew, how the pharisees had heard that Iesus made and baptized mo disciples then Iohn ² (Though that Iesus hym selfe baptized not, but his disciples: ³ He left Iurie, and departed agayne into Galilee

¹ After these thynges, Iesus went about in Galilee: For he would not go about in Iurie, because that the Iewes sought to kyll hym

⁴ For there is no man that doeth any thyng in secrete, and he hym selfe seketh to be knowen openly. Yf thou do suche thynges, shewe thy selfe to the worlde

¹⁰ But assoone as his brethre were gone vp, then went he also vp vnto the feaste, not openly, but as it were priuilie

¹³ Howebeit, no man spake openlye of hym, for feare of the Iewes

⁴⁰ And went away againe beyonde Iordane, into the place where Iohn before had baptized, and there he abode

²⁰ Iesus aunswered him: I spake openly to the worlde, I euer taught in the synagogue, and in the temple, whyther all the Iewes resort, & in secrete haue I sayde nothyng

² Then sayde Iacob vnto his householde, and to all that were with hym: put away the straunge gods that are among you, and be cleane, and chaunge your garmentes

¹¹ Of this maner shall ye eate it: with your loynes girded, and your shooes on your feete, and your staffe in your hand, and ye shall eate it in haste: for it is the Lordes passouer ¹² For I wyll passe through the lande of Egypt this same nyght, and wyll smyte all the first borne of Egypt from man to beast, and vpon all the gods of Egypt I wyll execute iudgement: I [am] the Lorde ¹³ And the blood shalbe vnto you a token in the houses wherin you are: and whe I see the blood, I wyll passe ouer you, and the plague shall not be vpon you to destroy you when I smyte the lande of Egypt ¹⁴ And this day shalbe vnto you a remebraunce: and you shall kepe it an holy feast vnto the Lorde throughout your generations, ye shall kepe it holy for an ordinaunce for euer

¹⁰ And the Lorde sayde vnto Moyses: Go vnto the people, and sanctifie the to day and to morowe, and let them washe theyr clothes

¹⁴ And Moyses went downe from the mount vnto the people, and sanctified them, and they washed their clothes ¹⁵ And he sayd vnto the people: be redy agaynst the thirde day, and come not at [your] wyues

⁶ And certayne men were defiled by a dead man, that they myght not kepe the Passouer the same day, and they came before Moyses & Aaron the same day

⁵ He aunswered: Yea, I am come to offer vnto the Lorde: Sanctifie your selues, and come with me to the offering. And he sanctified Isai and his sonnes, and bade them to the offering

¹⁷ For there were many in the congregation that were not sanctified, and therefore the Leuites had the charge of the killing of the Passouer for euery one that was not cleane, to sanctifie him vnto the Lorde ¹⁸ For many of the people, and very many out of Ephraim, Manasse, Isachar, and Zabulon, were not clensed, and yet did eate Passour against the lawe appoynted: but Hezekia prayed for them, saying, The good Lorde be mercifull toward euery on ¹⁹ That prepareth his heart to seeke the Lorde God, the God of his fathers: though he be not [clensed] accordyng to the purification of the sanctuarie ²⁰ And the Lorde heard Hezekia, and healed the people

¹ And when the seuenth moneth came, and the childre of Israel were now in their cities, the people came together euen as one man to Hierusalem ² And there stoode vp Iesua the sonne of Ioseder, and his brethren the priestes, and Zorobabel the sonne of Salathiel and his brethren, and builded the aulter of the God of Israel, to offer burnt offeringes thereon, as it is written in the law of Moyses the man of God ³ And the aulter set they vpon his sockets: for there was a fearefulnesse among them, because of the people of those countries, therefore they offered burnt offeringes theron vnto the lorde, euen burnt offeringes in the morning and at euening ⁴ And they helde the feast of tabernacles as it is written, and offered burnt sacrifices dayly, according to the number and custome, day by day ⁵ Afterwarde they offered dayly burnt offringes also, and in the new moones, and in al the feast dayes that were consecrated vnto the Lord, and for all them which did of their owne free wyll offer vnto the Lorde ⁶ From the first day of the seuenth moneth, began they to offer burnt sacrifices vnto the Lord: euen when the foundation of the temple of the Lorde was not yet layde

¹ And all the people gathered them selues together as one man, in the streete that was before the water gate, and they saide vnto Esdras the scribe, that he should fetch the booke of the law of Moyses, which the Lorde commaunded to Israel ² And Esdras the priest brought the law before the congregation both of men & women, and all that could vnderstand did hearken vnto it vpon the first day of the seuenth moneth ³ And he read therein in the streete that was before the water gate, from the morning vntill the noone day, before men and women that did hearken to it: and the eares of all the people were inclined vnto the booke of the law ⁴ And Esdras the scribe stoode vpon a pulpet of wood which they had made for the preaching, and beside him stoode Mathathia, Sema, & Anaiah, Uriah, Helkia, & Maaseiah, on his right hande: and on his left hand stoode Pedaia, Misael, & Melchia, & Hasum, Hasabadana, Zachari, and Mesullam ⁵ And Esdras opened the booke before all the people, (for he stoode aboue al the people:) and when he opened it, all the people stoode vp ⁶ And Esdras praysed the Lorde the great God: And all the people aunswered, Amen, Ame, lifting vp their handes, and bowed them selues and worshipped the Lord falling downe vpon their faces to the grounde ⁷ And Iesua, Bani, Serebiah, Iamin, Accub, Sebbethai, Hodaia, Maasia, Celita, Azariah, Iozabad, Hanan, Pelaiah, & the Leuites caused the people to geue heede vnto the law: and the people stoode in their place ⁸ And they read in the booke of the lawe of God distinctly, and gaue the sense, and caused them to vnderstand the reading ⁹ And Nehemia which is Athirsatha, and Esdras the priest and scribe, and the Leuites that caused the people to take heede, said vnto al the people, This day is holy vnto the Lorde your God, be not ye sory, and weepe not: For all the people wept when they heard the wordes of the lawe ¹⁰ And he saide vnto them: Go your way, and eate the fat, and drinke the sweete, and send part vnto them also that haue not prepared for them selues, for this day is holy vnto our Lorde: be not ye sory therefore, for the ioy of the Lorde is your strength ¹¹ And the Leuites stilled all the people, and saide: Holde your peace, for the day is holy, be not sad therefore ¹² And all the people went their way to eate, and to drinke, & to sende part vnto other, and to make great mirth, because they had vnderstand the wordes that were declared vnto them

⁵ And when the dayes of their banquetting were gone about, Iob sent and sanctified them, and gat vp early and offered for euery one a burnt offring: For Iob saide, It may be that my sonnes haue done some offence, & haue ben vnthankfull to God in their heartes. Thus did Iob euery day

⁶ I haue wasshed my handes in innocencie: and [so] I haue gone about thine aulter O God

¹ And it came to passe, when Iesus had finished all these sayinges, he sayde vnto his disciples

⁶ And there were set there, sixe water pottes of stone, after the maner of the purifiyng of the Iewes, conteynyng two or three firkins a peece

¹³ And the Iewes Passouer was at hande, & Iesus went vp to Hierusalem

¹ After this, was there a feast day of the Iewes, and Iesus went vp to Hierusalem

⁴ And the Passouer, a feast of ye Iewes, was nye

⁸ Go ye vp vnto this feast: I wyll not go vp yet vnto this feast, for my tyme is not yet full come ⁹ When he had saide these wordes vnto them, he abode styll in Galilee ¹⁰ But assoone as his brethre were gone vp, then went he also vp vnto the feaste, not openly, but as it were priuilie

¹ Then Iesus, sixe dayes before the Passouer, came to Bethanie, where Lazarus had ben dead, whom he raysed from death

¹ Before the feast of the Passouer, when Iesus knewe that his houre was come, yt he shoulde departe out of this world vnto the father: When he loued his which were in the world, vnto the ende he loued them

²⁸ Then led they Iesus fro Caiaphas into the hall of iudgement. It was in the mornyng: And they them selues went not into the iudgement hall, leste they shoulde be defyled: but that they myght eate the Passouer

¹⁸ In the which they founde me purified in the temple, neither with multitude, nor yet with vnquietnesse: Howbeit, there were certayne Iewes out of Asia

²⁸ But let a man examine hym selfe, and so let hym eate of this bread, and drinke of this cuppe

¹³ For if the blood of Oxen & of Goates, and the asshes of a young Cowe, sprinklyng the vncleane, sanctifieth to the purifiyng of the flesshe ¹⁴ Howe much more the blood of Christe, which through the eternall spirite offered hym selfe without spot to God, shall purge your conscience fro dead workes, to serue the lyuyng God

⁸ Drawe nye to God, and he wyll drawe nye to you. Clense your handes ye sinners, and purifie your heartes ye double mynded

¹¹ Then sought hym the Iewes at the feaste, and sayde, where is he

⁷ Then after that, sayde he to his disciples: Let vs go into Iurie agayne ⁸ His disciples sayde vnto hym: Maister, the Iewes lately sought to stone thee, and wylt thou go thither agayne

⁴ For the loue that I bare vnto them, they are become mine aduersaries: but I geue my selfe vnto prayer

¹⁶ And therefore the Iewes dyd persecute Iesus, and sought [the meanes] to slea hym, because he hadde done these thynges on the Sabboth day ¹⁷ And Iesus aunswered them: My father worketh hitherto, and I worke ¹⁸ Therfore the Iewes sought the more to kyll him, not only because he had broken the Sabboth, but sayde also, that God was his father, and made himselfe equall with God

²² Such wordes spake his father & mother, because they feared the Iewes: For the Iewes had decreed alredy, that yf any man dyd confesse that he was Christe, he shoulde be excommunicate out of the synagogue
