¹⁶ Therfore, thou shalt not praye for thys people, thou shalt nether geue thanckes, nor byd prayer for them: thou shalt make no intercession to me for them, for in no wyse wyll I heare the.

¹ Then spake the Lord vnto me: Thoughe Moses & Samuell stode before me, yet haue I no hearte to thys people. Driue them awaye, that they maye go out of my syght.

¹³ In thy fylthynes euen in thy myscheuous dedes, thou dost contynue & because thy fylthynesse is abhominable, for I haue clensed the, but thou art not clensed. Thou shalt not be pourged from thyne vnclennesse, tyll I haue powred my wrothful indygnacion vpon the.

⁴ For the bloude of oxen and of goates can not take awaye synnes. ⁵ Wherfore, when he commeth into the worlde he sayth: Sacryfyce and offerynge thou woldest not haue: but a bodye hast thou ordeyned me: ⁶ Burnt offerynges also for synne hast thou not alowed. ⁷ Then sayd I: lo, I am here. In the begynnyng of the booke it is written of me, that I shuld do thy will, o God. ⁸ Aboue, when he sayeth: sacryfice & offeryng, & burnt sacryfyces and synne offerynges thou woldest not haue, nether hast thou alowed them (whiche yet are offered by the lawe) ⁹ then sayd he: Lo, I am here, to do thy wyll, o God: he taketh awaye the fyrst to stablisshe the latter, ¹⁰ by wych will we are made holy, euyn by the offeryng of the body of Iesu Christe once for all.

I wyll recompence sayth the Lord. And agayne: the Lord shal iudge his people. ³¹ It is a fearfull thynge to fall into the handes of the lyuyng God.

⁹ So Hanna rose vp after that they had eaten & droncke in Sylo. And Eli the Preaste sate vpon a stole by one of the syde postes of the temple of the Lorde.

⁶ Then sayde I: Oh Lorde God, I canne not speake, for I am yet but younge. ⁷ And the Lorde answered me thus: Saye not so, I am to younge: For thou shalt goo to all that I shall sende the vnto, and whatsoeuer I commaunde the, that shalt thou speake. ⁸ Be not afrayed of their faces, for I am with the, to delyuer the, sayeth the Lorde.

¹⁰ Yee, what is he amonge you, that wyl do so moch as to shut the dores, or to kindle the fyre vpon myne aulter for naught? I haue no pleasure in you, sayeth the Lord of hostes: and as for the meatoffringe, I wyl not accepte it at youre hande.

¹⁰ If Timotheus come, se that he be with out feare with you. For he worketh the worcke of the Lorde, as I do: ¹¹ let no man therfore despyse him. but conuaye hym forth in peace, that he maye come vnto me. For I loke for him with the brethren.

¹⁷ Where thou dyest, there wyll I dye, and there will I be buried. The Lord do so and so to me, yf ought but death onelye departe the and me asondre.

¹³ the Lord do so and so vnto Ionathas. But yf my father haue any pleasure to do the euell, I wyll shewe the also, and sende the awaye that thou mayst go in peace. And the Lorde be wyth the, as he hath bene with my father.

³⁵ And when all the people cam to eate meate with Dauid, while it was yet daye, Dauid sware saying: So & so do God to me, yf I tast breed or ought elles, tyll the sonne be downe.

¹³ And saye ye to Amasa: art thou not of my bone & of my fleshe? God do so and so to me, yf thou be not captayne of the host to me for euer in the roume of Ioab.

¹⁶ And the kynge sayd vnto hym: So & so many times do I charge the, that thou tell me nothyng, but that whych is true, in the name of the Lorde.

⁵ Let the ryghteous rather smyte me frendly & reproue me.

¹⁹ Then Daniel (whose name was Balthazar) helde hys peace by the space of an houre and hys thoughtes troubled hym. So the kynge spake & sayde: O Balthazar, lett nether the dreame ner the interpretacyon therof feare the. Balthazar answered, saing: O my Lorde, this dreame happen to thyne enemies, and the interpretacyon to thyne aduersaries.

⁷ sayeth the house of Iacob. Is the sprete of the Lorde so cleane awaye? or is he so minded? Treuth it is, my wordes are frendly vnto them that lyue ryght:

⁶³ But Iesus helde hys peace. And the chefe preste answered and sayde vnto him: I charge the by the lyuinge God, that thou tell vs, whether thou be Christ the sonne of God.

²⁵ That be farre from the, that thou shuldest do after thys sayinge, & sley the ryghtwes with the wicked, & that the ryghtwes shulde be as the wicked, that be farre from the. Shall not the iudge of all the worlde do accordynge to ryghte?

How moche more then maye thys sonne of Iemini do it? Suffre him to cursse for the Lord hath bydden him: ¹² haplye the Lorde wyll loke on my wepyng eyes & wretchednesse, & do me good for hys curssynge this daye.

⁸ Then sayde Hezekia to Esay. Now God prospere his awne councell, which thou hast tolde me. He sayde more ouer: So that there be peace & faithfulnes in my tyme.

³⁹ Wherfore then murmureth the lyuynge man? let him murmure at his awne synne.

⁶ Submyt youre selues therfore vnder the myghty hande of God, that he maye exalte you, when the tyme is come.

²² And it chaunced the same season, that Abimelech and Phicoll hys chefe captayne spake vnto Abraham sayinge: God is wyth the in all that thou doest.

² And God was with Ioseph, & he became a luckye man, continuynge in the house of his master the Egyptian.

²¹ but the Lorde was wyth Ioseph, and shewed hym mercye, and gote hym fauoure in the syghte of the Lorde of the preson. ²² And the keper of the preson commytted to Iosephs hande all the presoners that were in the preson house.
