²⁸ herof are they fat and welthy, and are more mischeuous then any other. They mynistre not the lawe, they make no ende of the fatherlesse cause, yea, and they prospere: yet they iudge not the poore accordynge to equytie.

²⁸ For they are all stubberne apostates and fallen awaye, walkinge disceitfully, they are cleane brasse & yron, for they hurt & destroye euery man.

Maruelous pleasaunt vyneyardes shall ye plante, but the wyne of them shall ye not drincke: & why? ¹² as for the multitude of youre wyckednesses and youre stoute synnes, I knowe them ryght well. Enemyes are ye of the ryghteous, ye take rewardes, ye oppresse the poore in iudgement.

¹³ Thou shalt not kyll.

¹ Thou shalt not accept a vayne tale, nether shalt put thyne hande with the wyked to be an vuryghteous witnesse.

⁷ & kepyng mercye in store for thousandes, forgeuynge wikednes, vngodlynes & synne, & not leauynge one innocent, visytynge the wyckednes of the fathers vpon the children and vpon childrens children, euen vnto the third and fourth generacyon.

²⁵ Cursed be he that taketh a rewarde to slaye the soule of innocent bloude, and all the people shall saye, Amen.

²³ For yf thou wilt turne to the Almightye, thou shall stande fast, and put all vnrighteousnesse from thy dwellynge:

¹⁴ Come nott in the pathe of the vngodly: and walke nott in the waye of the wycked. ¹⁵ Abhorre it, and go not therin: departe asyde, and passe ouer by it.

¹⁵ The Lorde hateth as well him that iustifieth the vngodly, as him that condempneth the innocent.

¹⁵ He that ledeth a godly lyfe, say I, & speaketh the trueth. He that abhorreth gaines wonne by violence & disceyte: he that kepeth his hande that he touch no rewarde: which stoppeth his eares, that he heare no councell agenst the innocent bloude: which holdeth downe his eyes, that he se none euell.

³ The Lord suffreth longe, he is of great power, & so innocent that he leaueth no man fautlesse before him. The Lord goeth forth in tempest & stormy wether, the cloudes are the dust of his fete.

¹⁸ As it is written the iust shall lyue by fayth. For the wrath of God apeareth from heauen agaynst all vngodlynes and vnryghtewesnes of men, whych withholde the trueth in vnrightewesnes:

⁵ But thou after thy stubburnesse, and herte that cannot repent, heapest vnto thy selfe wrath agaynst the daye of vengeaunce, when shalbe opened the ryghtewes iudgement of God, ⁶ which wyll reward euery man accordynge to hys dedes:

²² Abstayne from all euell appearaunce.

¹⁷ For the Lorde your God, is God of Goddes, and Lorde of Lordes, a greate God, a myghtye and a terrible whych regardeth no mans person nor taketh gyfte:

³ And his sonnes walked not in his wayes: but turned asyde after lucre, and toke rewarde, and peruerted the ryght.

³ Beholde, here I am: beare recorde of me before the Lorde and before hys anoynted: Whose oxe haue I taken? or whose Asse haue I taken? whom haue I done wrong to? Whom haue I hurt? Or of whose hande haue I receaued any brybe, to blynde myne eyes therwyth? & I wyll restore it you agayne.

¹⁰ In whose handes is wyckednesse, & their ryghthande is full of gyftes.

²⁷ The couetous man roteth vp hys awne house, but who so hateth rewardes, shall lyue.

⁸ A rewarde is as a precious stone vnto him that hath it: but vnto whomsoeuer it turneth it maketh him vnwise.

²³ The vngodly taketh gyftes out of the bosome, to wreste the wayes of iudgement.

⁴ Ryches make many frendes: but the pore is forsaken of hys neyghboure.

⁷ The wyse man hateth wronge delynge: & abhorreth the harte that couetith rewardes.

¹³ Therfore offre me no mo oblacions, for it is but lost laboure. Incense is an abhominable thinge vnto me. I Maye not awaye with youre newe moones, your Sabbathes & gatheringe togyther at the solempne dayes.

²³ These geue sentence with the vngodly for rewardes, but comdempne the iust cause of the ryghteous.

¹² yee, gyftes haue bene receaued in the, to shede bloude. Thou hast taken vsury and encreace, thou hast oppressed thy neyghbours by extorcyon, and forgotten me, sayeth the Lorde God.

¹⁸ Their dronckennes hath put them backe, & brought them to whordome. Their rulers loue rewardes, bringe, (saye they) to their awne shame.

¹² as for the multitude of youre wyckednesses and youre stoute synnes, I knowe them ryght well. Enemyes are ye of the ryghteous, ye take rewardes, ye oppresse the poore in iudgement.

³ yet they saye they do well when they do euel. As the prince will, so sayeth the iudge: that he maye do him a pleasure agayne. The greate man speaketh what his herte desireth: & the hearers alowe him.

²¹ And yf they continue a daye or two, it shall not be auenged, for they are hys money.

²¹ Uexe not a straunger, nether oppresse hym: for ye were straungers in the lande of Egypt.

¹⁹ Loue ye therfore the straunger also: for ye were straungers youre selues in the lande of Egypte.

¹⁴ Thou shalt not defraude an hyred seruaunte that is nedye and poore, whether he be of thy brethen, or of the straungers that are in thy lande with in thy gates. ¹⁵ But shall geue him his hyer the same daye, and lett not the sonne go doune theron. For he is nedye, and therwith susteyneth his lyfe, lest he crye agaynst the vnto the Lorde, and it be synne vnto the. ¹⁶ The fathers shall not dye for the chyldren, nor the chyldren for the fathers: but euery man shall dye for hys awne synne. ¹⁷ Thou shalt not hynder the ryght of the straunger nor of the fatherlesse, nor take a wedowes rayment to pledge. ¹⁸ But remembre that thou wast a seruaunte in Egypte, and howe the Lorde thy God delyuered the thence: And therfore I commaunde the to do thys thynge.

⁶ They murthur the wyddow and the straunger, and put the fatherlesse to death.

⁷ In the haue they despysed father & mother, in the haue they oppressed the straunger, in the haue they vexed the wydowe and the fatherlesse.

³³ shuldest not thou also haue had compassion on thy felow, euen as I had pytie on the?

¹⁷ Wherfore, in all thynges it became hym to be made lyke vnto his brethren, that he myght be mercyfull, and a faythfull hye Preste in thynges concernynge God, for to pourge the peoples synnes. ¹⁸ For in that it fortuned hym selfe to be tempted, he is able to sucker them also that are tempted.

³ Syxe yeares thou shalt sowe thy felde, and syxe yeare thou shalt cut thy vinyarde, and gether in the frute therof. ⁴ But the seuenth yeare shall be a Sabboth of rest vnto the lande. The Lordes Sabboth it shalbe: thou shalt nether sowe thy felde, nor cut thy vyneyarde.

² speake vnto the chyldren of Israel, and saye vnto them: when ye be come into the lande whych I geue you, the lande shall rest, & kepe Sabboth vnto the Lorde. ³ Syxe yeares thou shalt sowe thy felde, and syxe yeare thou shalt cut thy vinyarde, and gether in the frute therof. ⁴ But the seuenth yeare shall be a Sabboth of rest vnto the lande. The Lordes Sabboth it shalbe: thou shalt nether sowe thy felde, nor cut thy vyneyarde. ⁵ That which groweth of the owne accorde thou shalt not reape, nether gather the grapes that thou hast left behynde, for it is a yeare of rest vnto the lande. ⁶ And the rest of the lande shalbe meat for you: euen for the, for thy seruaunte, and for thy mayde, for thy hyred seruaunte, and for the straunger that sogeourneth wyth the: ⁷ and for thy catell, and for the beastes that are in thy lande, shall all the encrease therof be meat.

¹¹ A yeare of iubelye shall that fiftieth yeare be vnto you. Ye shall not sowe nether repe that which groweth of it selfe, nor gether the grapes that are left. ¹² For that yeare of iubelie shalbe holy vnto you: but ye shall eate of the encrease therof out of the felde.

²⁰ And yf ye shall saye: what shall we eate the seuenth yeare, for we shall not sowe, nor gether in oure encrease?

²² and it shall brynge forth frute for thre yeares: & ye shall sowe the eyght yeare, and eate yet of olde corne vntyll the .ix. yeare: euen vntyll her frutes come, ye shall eate of olde stoare.

³⁴ Then shall the lande enioye her Sabbothes, as longe as it lyeth voyde, and ye shalbe in your enemyes lande: euen then shall the lande rest, and reioyse in her Sabbothes. ³⁵ As longe as it lyeth voyde it shall rest, because it dyd not reste in youre Sabbothes, when ye dwelt vpon it.

⁸ Remembre the Sabbath daye that thou sanctifye it. ⁹ Sixe dayes shalt thou laboure and do all that thou hast to do: ¹⁰ but the seuenth daye is the Sabbath of the Lorde thy God, in it thou shalt do no maner of worke, thou and thy sonne, and thy daughter, thy man seruaunte and thy mayde seruaunte, thy catell and the straunger that is within thy gates. ¹¹ For in syxe dayes the Lorde made heauen and erth, the see and all that in them is, and rested the seuenth daye: wherfore the Lorde blessed the Sabbath daye and halowed it.

¹⁵ Syxe dayes shall men worcke. And in the seuenth daye is the Sabboth of the holye rest of the Lorde. Whosoeuer doth any worcke in the Sabboth daye, shall dye: ¹⁶ wherfore lett the children of Israel kepe the Sabboth, that they obserue it thorowout theyr generacions, that it be an appoyntment for euer.

²¹ Syxe dayes thou shalt worke, and in the seuenth daye thou shalt rest, bothe from earyng and reaping.

³ Ye shall kyndle no fier thorowout all youre habitacions vpon the Sabbath daye.

¹³ Syxe dayes thou shalt laboure and do all that thou hast to do, ¹⁴ but the seuenth daye is the Sabboth of the Lorde thy God: thou shalt not do any worke, thou and thy sonne, thy daughter, thy seruaunte and thy mayde, thyne oxe and thyne asse, and all thy catell, and the straunger that is within thy gates, that thy seruaunte & thy mayde maye rest as well as thou. ¹⁵ Remembre, that thou wast a seruaunte in the lande of Egypt, and howe that the Lorde thy God brought the out thence thorowe a myghtye hande and a stretched out arme. For whyche cause the Lord thy God commaunded the, to kepe the Sabboth daye.

³ Wherfore fast we (saye they) and thou seest it not? we put out lyues to straytenes, and thou regardest it not?

¹⁴ And the ruler of the synagoge answered with indignacion (because that Iesus had healed on the Saboth daye) and sayde vnto the people. Ther are syxe dayes in which men ought to worke, in them come, that ye maye be healed, and not on the Saboth daye.

³⁸ Nebo, Baal, Meon, & turned their names, & Sibama also: and gaue other names vnto the cityes which they builded.

⁹ Take hede to thy selfe therfore, and kepe thy soule diligently, that thou forget not the thynges which thyne eyes haue sene, & that they departe not out of thyne harte, all the dayes of thy lyfe: but teache them thy sonnes & thy sonnes sonnes:

¹⁵ Take therfore good hede vnto youre selues as pertaynynge vnto youre soules, for ye sawe no maner of ymage in the daye that the Lorde spake vnto you in Horeb out of the myddes of the fyre: lest ye marre youre selues

³ Ouerthrowe theyr alters, and breake theyr pilers, and burne their groues with fyre and hewe downe the grauen ymages of the Goddes that they haue, and bringe the names of them to noughte out of that place.

⁵ But in any wise take diligent hede, and do the commaundement and lawe, whych Moses the seruaunt of the Lorde charged you: that ye loue the Lorde youre God, and walke in all hys wayes, and kepe hys commaundementes, and cleaue vnto him, and serue him with all youre hertes, & all youre soules.

⁷ and lest that whan ye come amonge these nacions, (euen amonge these that are left with you) ye make mencion or sweare by the names of their goddes: and that ye nether serue them, nor bowe youre selues vnto them.

¹¹ Take good hede therfore vnto youre selues, that ye loue the Lorde youre God.

⁷ I will stablyshe his kingdome for euer, If he will be strong to do my commaundmentes, & my lawes, as it goeth this daye. ⁸ Now therfore, in the syght of all Israel the congregacyon of the Lorde, & in the audience of oure God: kepe & seke for all the commaundmentes of the Lord yor God, that ye maye enioye a good land, & leaue inheritaunce for yor children after you for euer. ⁹ And thou Salomon my sonne, knowe thou the God of thy father, and serue hym with a pure hert, and wyth a swete courage. For the Lorde sercheth all hertes, and vnderstandeth all the ymaginacyons of thoughtes. And yf thou seke hym, he wylbe founde of the: But yf thou forsake hym, he wyll cast the of for euer.

⁴ But they that runne after another God, shall haue greate trouble.

¹ To the chaunter Ieduthun, a Psalme of Dauid. I sayde: I will take hede to my wayes that I offend not in my tonge.

¹¹ As for theyr goddes thus shall you saye to them: they are goddes, that made nether heauen ner earth therfore shall they perysh from the earth, and from all thynges vnder heauen.

¹⁷ for I wyll take awaye those names of Baal from her mouth, yee, she shall neuer remembre their names eny more.

² And then (sayeth the Lorde of hostes) I wyll destroye the names of Idoles out of the lande: so that they shall nomore be put in remembraunce. As for the false prophetes also, and the vnclene sprete, I shall take them out of the lande.

¹² For it is shame euen to name those thynges which are done of them in secrete:

¹⁵ Take hede therfore howe ye walke circumspectly: not as vnwyse, but as wyse men.

¹⁶ Take hede vnto thy selfe, and vnto learnynge, and continue therin. For yf thou shalt so do, thou shalt saue thy selfe, & them that heare the.

¹⁵ And loke, that no man be destitute of the grace of god, lest anye roote of bytternes spryng vp and trouble, & therby many be defyled:

¹⁷ Thre tymes in a yere shall all thy men chyldren appeare before the Lord God.

²² Thou shalt obserue the feast of wekes with thy fyrst frutes of whet heruest, and the feast of in gatherynge at the yeares ende. ²³ Thryse in a yeare shall all your mens children appeare before the Lorde Iehoua God of Israel. ²⁴ Whan I cast out the nacions before the, and enlarge thy coastes: so that no man shall desyre thy lande, thou shalt go vp to appeare before the Lorde thy God, thryse in the yeare.

⁵ In the .xiiij. daye of the fyrst moneth at euen is the Lordes Passeouer.

¹⁶ euen vnto the morowe after the seuenth Sabbath shall ye nombre fyftye dayes. And ye shall brynge a new meatoffrynge vnto the Lorde.

³⁴ speake vnto the chyldren of Israel, and saye: the fyftenth daye of the same seuenth moneth is the feast of tabernacles, seuen dayes vnto the Lord.

¹⁶ Thre tymes in the yere shall all thy males appeare before the Lorde thy God, in the place which he shall chose: In the feast of swete bread, in the feast of wekes, & in the feast of tabernacles. And they shall not appeare before the Lorde empty

¹⁴ And this daye shalbe vnto you a remembraunce: and ye shall kepe it holy vnto the Lorde, euen thorowout youre generatyons shall ye kepe it holy daie, that it be a custome for euer. ¹⁵ Seuen dayes shall ye eat vnleuended bread: and the fyrste daye ye shall put a waye leuen out of youre houses. For whosoeuer eateth leuended bread from the fyrst daye vntill the seuenth daye, that soule shalbe plucked out from Israel. ¹⁶ The fyrste daye shalbe an holy conuocation, and the seuenth daye shalbe an holy conuocation vnto you. There shalbe no maner of worcke done in them, saue about that onely which euery man must eate, that onely maye ye do. ¹⁷ And ye shall obserue vnleuended bread. For this same daye haue I brought your armyes out of the lande of Egypte, therfore ye shall obserue this daye, & all your children after you, by a custome for euer. ¹⁸ The fyrst moneth and the .xiiij. daye of the moneth at euen, ye shall eate swete bread vnto the .xxj. daye of the moneth at euen agayne. ¹⁹ Seuen dayes shall there be no leuended breade founde in youre houses. And whosoeuer eateth leuended bread, that soule shalbe roted out from the multitude of Israel: whyther he be a straunger or borne in the lande. ²⁰ Ye shall eate nothyng leuended: but in all your habitations shall ye eate swete bread. ²¹ Moses called for the elders of Israel, and sayde vnto them: chose out and take you to euery housholde of you a shepe, and kyll it for passeouer. ²² And take a bunche of ysope, & dyp it in the bloude that is in the basen, and stryke the vpperposte and the two syde postes with the bloud that is in the basen, and none of you go out at the dore of hys house, vntyll the mornyng. ²³ For the Lorde will go about to smyte the Egipcians. And when he seeth the bloude vpon the vpper dore poste & on the two side postes: he will passe ouer the dore, and will not suffer the destroyer to come into your house to plage you. ²⁴ Therfore shall ye obserue this thing, that it be an ordinaunce both to the and thy sonnes for euer. ²⁵ And when ye become into the land which the Lorde wyll geue you, accordynge as he hath promysed, ye shall kepe thys seruyce. ²⁶ And when youre chyldren aske you what maner of seruyce is this ye do, ²⁷ ye shall saye: it is the sacrifyce of the Lordes passe ouer, which passed ouer the houses of the children of Israel in Egipte, as he smote the Egypcians, and saued oure houses. And the people bowed them selues, and worshypped: ²⁸ And the chyldren of Israel went, and dyd as the Lorde had commaunded Moses and Aaron. Euen so dyd they.

⁴³ And the Lorde sayde vnto Moses and Aaron: This is the lawe of passeouer: there shall no straunger eate therof. ⁴⁴ But euery seruaunt that is bought for money (after that thou hast circumcised him) shall eate therof. ⁴⁵ A straunger and a hyerd seruaunt shall not eate therof. ⁴⁶ In one house shall it be eaten. Thou shalte carye none of the fleshe oute at the house. Neyther shall ye breake a bone therof. ⁴⁷ All the multitude shall obserue it. ⁴⁸ If a straunger also dwell amonge you, & will holde passeouer vnto the Lorde, let him circumcyse all that be males: and then lett him come and obserue it, and he shall be as one that is borne in the lande. For no vncircumcised persone shall eate therof. ⁴⁹ One maner of lawe shalbe vnto him that is borne in the lande, and vnto the straunger that dwelleth amonge you.

⁴ This daye come ye out in the moneth when corne beginneth to rype.

⁶ Seuen dayes thou shalte eate swete bread: and in the seuenth daye, it is the feaste of the Lord. ⁷ Swete bread shalbe eaten seuen daies: and ther shall no leuended bread be sene, nor yet leuen with the in all thy quarters.

¹⁸ The feaste of swete bread shalt thou kepe. Seuen dayes thou shalt eate vnleuended bread, as I commaunded the in the tyme of the moneth, when corne begynneth to rype. For in the moneth when corne begynneth to ripe, thou camest out of Egipt.

²⁰ But the fyrst of the asse thou shalt bye out wt a lambe. And yf thou redeme hym not, thou shalt breake hys neck. All the fyrst borne of thy sonnes shalt thou redeme. And se that no man appeare before me empty.

⁵ In the .xiiij. daye of the fyrst moneth at euen is the Lordes Passeouer. ⁶ And in the fyfteneth daye of the same moneth is the feast of swete bread vnto the Lorde: seuen dayes ye must eate vnleuended bread. ⁷ In the fyrst daye ye shall haue an holy conuocacyon: ye shall do no laborious worke therin. ⁸ But ye shall offer sacrifyces vnto the Lorde thorow out those seuen dayes, and in the seuenth daye is an holy conuocacyon: ye shall do no laborious worke therin.

¹⁰ speake vnto the chyldren of Israel & saye vnto them when ye be come into the lande (whyche I geue vnto you) & repe doune the haruest therof, ye shall brynge a shefe of the fyrst frutes of youre haruest vnto the preast,

² let the chyldren of Israel offre Passeouer in hys season: ³ euen the .xiiij. daye of thys moneth at euen let them kepe it in hys season, accordynge to all the ceremonyes of it, and accordynge to all the maners therof. ⁴ And Moses spake vnto the chyldren of Israel, that they shulde offer Passeouer, ⁵ and they offered Passeouer the .xiiij. daye of the fyrst moneth at euen in the wyldernesse of Synai: accordynge to all that the Lorde commaunded Moses, euen so dyd the chyldren of Israel. ⁶ And certayne men were defyled vpon the soule of a man, that they myght not offer Passeouer the same daye. And they came before Moses and Aaron the same daye. ⁷ And the men sayde vnto hym: We are defyled vpon the soule of a man: wherfore are we kepte backe, that we maye not offer an offerynge vnto the Lorde in the due season, amonge the chyldren of Israel? ⁸ And Moses sayde vnto them: Stond styll, & I wyll heare what the Lorde will commaunde concernynge you. ⁹ And the Lorde spake vnto Moses sayinge: ¹⁰ speake vnto the chyldren of Israell and saye: If any man amonge you or youre chyldren after you be vncleane by the reason of a coarse, or is in the waye farre from you, and will offer Passeouer vnto the Lorde: ¹¹ the .xiiij. daye of the seconde moneth at euen let them offre it, and eate it with swete breed and sowre herbes: ¹² let them leaue none of it vnto the mornynge nor breake any bone of it: But accordynge to all the ordinaunce of the Passeouer let them offer it. ¹³ But the man that is cleane and is not in a iourney, & yet was negligent to offer Passeouer: the same soule shall peryshe from hys people, because he brought not the offerynge of the Lord in hys due season: that man shall bere hys synne. ¹⁴ And yf a straunger dwell amonge you, and wyll offer Passeouer vnto the Lorde, accordynge to the ordinaunce of Passeouer and maner therof, he shall offre it thus: Ye shall haue one lawe both for the straunger, and for hym that was borne at home in the lande.

¹⁶ And the fourtenth daye of the fyrst moneth, is the passeouer of the Lorde. ¹⁷ And in the fyftenth daye of the same moneth is the feast: and seuen dayes longe shall vnleuened bred be eaten. ¹⁸ In the fyrst daye shalbe an holy conuocacyon, ye shall do no maner of seruile worke therin. ¹⁹ But ye shall offer a sacrifyce for a burntofferynge vnto the Lorde .ij. yong bullockes, one ram, and seuen lambes of a yere olde, which are to you wtout spot, ²⁰ and let theyr meatoffering be of floure mingled with oyle: thre tenth deales also shall ye offre for a bullock, and two tenth deales for a ram: ²¹ one tenth deale shalt thou offre for euery lambe of the seuen lambes: ²² and a hegoate for synne to make atonement for you. ²³ Ye shall offer these, besyde the burntofferyng in the morning, which is a contynuall burntsacrifyce. ²⁴ After this maner ye shall offre thorowout the .vij. dayes: the fode of the sacrifyce for a swete sauoure vnto the Lord. And it shalbe done besyde the dayly burntoffering and his drinckofferyng. ²⁵ And in the seuenth daye ye shall haue an holy conuocacion, and ye shall do no seruyle worke.

¹ Obserue the moneth of newe corne, that thou mayest offer passeouer vnto the Lorde thy God. For in the moneth whan corne beginneth to rype, the Lorde thy God brought the out of Egypte by nyght. ² Thou shalt therfore offer passe ouer vnto the Lorde thy God (and shepe and oxen) in the place whych the Lorde shall chose to put his name there. ³ Thou shalt eate no leuened bread with it: but seuen dayes shalt thou eate vnleuened bred therwith: euen the bread of trybulacyon (for thou camest out of the lande of Egypte in haste) that thou mayst remembre the daye, when thou camest out of the lande of Egypte, all dayes of thy lyfe. ⁴ And there shall be no leuened bread sene in all thy coastes seuen dayes longe, neyther shall there remayne any thynge of the fleshe which thou offrest the fyrst daye at euen, vntyll the mornynge. ⁵ Thou mayst not offer passeouer wythin any of thy gates, whych the Lorde thy God geueth the: ⁶ but in the place which the Lord thy God shall chose, to set his name in, there thou shalt offer Passeouer at euen, aboute the goynge downe of the sonne, euen in the ceason that thou camest out of Egypte. ⁷ And thou shalt sethe and eate it, in the place which the Lorde thy God hath chosen, and departe on the morowe, & gett the vnto thy tente. ⁸ Syxe dayes thou shalt eat swete bread, and the seuenth daye is a gatherynge together before the Lorde thy God: thou shalt do no worke therin.

¹⁰ And the children of Israel abode in Gilgall and helde the feast of passeouer the fourtene daye of the moneth at euen in the playne of Ierico. ¹¹ And they did eat of the corne of the land on the morowe after passeouer swete cakes & parched corne in the selfe same daye.

²¹ And the kynge commaunded all the people, sayeng: kepe the feast of passeouer vnto the Lorde youre God as it is wrytten in the boke of thys couenaunt. ²² There was no Passeouer holden lyke that, from the dayes of the iudges that iudged Israel, and in all the dayes of the kynges of Israel and of the kynges of Iuda. ²³ In the .xviii. yere of kynge Iosia was this Passouer holden to the Lorde in Ierusalem.

⁹ Honoure the Lord wt thy substaunce: and with thy firstlinges of all thyne encrease ¹⁰ so shall thy barnes be fylled with plenteousnesse: and thy presses shall flowe ouer with swete wyne.

¹² And the fyrste daye of swete breed (when they offred Passeouer) his disciples sayd vnto him: where wylt thou that we go & prepare, that thou mayest eate the Passeouer?

⁷ Then came the daye of swete breed, when of necessyte Passeouer must be offered.

⁷ Pourge therfore the olde leuen that ye maye be newe dowe, as ye are swete breed. For Christ oure passeouer is offered vp for vs. ⁸ Therfore, let vs kepe holy daye, not with olde leuen, nether with the leuen of malicyousnes & wickednes: but with the swete breed of purenes and trueth.

²⁹ Thy frutes (whether they be drie or moyst) se thou kepe not backe.

²² Thou shalt obserue the feast of wekes with thy fyrst frutes of whet heruest, and the feast of in gatherynge at the yeares ende.

⁹ And the Lorde spake vnto Moses sayenge: ¹⁰ speake vnto the chyldren of Israel & saye vnto them when ye be come into the lande (whyche I geue vnto you) & repe doune the haruest therof, ye shall brynge a shefe of the fyrst frutes of youre haruest vnto the preast, ¹¹ whych shall waue the shefe before the Lorde to be accepted for you: & euen the morowe after the Sabboth the Preaste shall waue it. ¹² And ye shall offer that daye when ye waue the shefe, an he lambe wythout blemish of a yeare olde, for a burntoffrynge vnto the Lorde: ¹³ and the meatofferynge therof, shalbe made of two tenth deales of fyne floure mengled with oyle, to be a sacrifyce vnto the Lorde for a swete sauoure: and the drynkoffring therof shalbe of wyne, euen the fourth deale of an Hyn. ¹⁴ And ye shall eate nether bread, nor parched corne, nor furmentye, nor newe corne, vntyll the selfe same daye that ye haue brought an offrynge vnto youre God. Let thys be a lawe for euer in youre generacions and in all youre dwellynges. ¹⁵ And ye shall counte from the morowe after the Saboth: euen from the daye that ye brought the shefe of the waueoffrynge .vij. Sabbathes complete: ¹⁶ euen vnto the morowe after the seuenth Sabbath shall ye nombre fyftye dayes. And ye shall brynge a new meatoffrynge vnto the Lorde. ¹⁷ And ye shall brynge out of youre habitacions two waue loues made of two tenth deales of fyne floure and that are made wyth leuen for fyrst frutes vnto the Lord. ¹⁸ And ye shall brynge with the breed seuen lambes wythout deformite of one yeare of age, and one yonge oxe & two rammes, whych shall serue for a burntoffrynge vnto the Lorde, wyth meatoffringes and theyr drynkoffrynges, to be a sacrifyce for a swete sauoure vnto the Lorde. ¹⁹ Then ye shall offer an he goate for a synne offrynge: and two lambes of one yeare olde for a peace offrynge. ²⁰ And the preast shall waue them wyth the breed of the fyrst frutes before the Lorde, and wyth the two lambes. And these holy thynges of the Lorde, shalbe the preastes. ²¹ And ye shall proclayme the same daye, that it maye be an holy conuocacyon vnto you: ye shall do no laborious worke therin: let it be a lawe for euer in all your dwellynges, and in all youre generacyons.

³⁴ speake vnto the chyldren of Israel, and saye: the fyftenth daye of the same seuenth moneth is the feast of tabernacles, seuen dayes vnto the Lord. ³⁵ The fyrst daye is an holy conuocacyon: ye shall do no laboryous worke. ³⁶ Seuen dayes ye shall offer sacryfyce vnto the Lord, and in the eyght daye shalbe an holy conuocacyon vnto you, and ye shall offer sacryfyces vnto the Lorde. It is the colleccyon, and ye shall do no laborious worke therin. ³⁷ These are the feastes of the Lord, whiche ye shall call holy conuocacyons, for to offer sacrifyce vnto the Lord, burntoffrynge, meatoffrynge, peaceoffrynge, and drynkeoffrynges, euery daye hys due sacrifyc ³⁸ besyde the Sabbothes of the Lorde, & besyde youre gyftes, besyde all your vowes, and all your frewylloffrynges, whyche ye geue vnto the Lorde. ³⁹ Moreouer in the fyftenth daye of the seuenth moneth whan ye haue gathered in the frute of the lande, ye shall kepe holy daye vnto the Lorde seuen dayes. The fyrst daye shall be as a Sabboth: lykewise in the eyght daye shalbe the rest of the Sabboth. ⁴⁰ And ye shall take you in the fyrst daye, the frutes of goodly trees, braunches of palme trees, and the bowes of thycke trees, and wyllowes of the brooke, and shall reioyse before the Lord your God seuen dayes. ⁴¹ And ye shall kepe this feast vnto the Lorde seuen dayes in the yeare. It shalbe a lawe for euer in youre generacyons, that ye kepe it in the seuenth moneth. ⁴² Ye shall dwell in boothes seuen dayes: euen all that are Israelites borne, shall dwell in boothes, ⁴³ that youre chyldren after you maye knowe, howe that I made the chyldren of Israel to dwell in boothes, when I brought them out of the lande of Egypt: I am the Lord youre God. ⁴⁴ And Moses spake vnto the chyldren of Israel concernynge the feastes of the Lorde.

²⁶ Therfore in the daye of your first frutes, when ye bryng a newe meatoffering vnto the Lorde (accordyng to your wekes) ye shall haue an holy conuocacion, ²⁷ & ye shall do no seruile worke in it: but offer a burntofferynge for a swete sauoure vnto the Lorde two yonge bullockes, a ram, and .vij. lambes of a yere olde a pece, ²⁸ with their meate offerynges of floure myngled with oyle, thre tenth deales vnto a bullock, two tenth deales to a ram, ²⁹ and one tenth deale vnto a lambe thorowout the seuen lambes, ³⁰ and an hegoate to make an atonement for you. ³¹ This ye shall do besydes the contynuall burntofferynge, and hys meatofferyng: & they shalbe vnto you without spot, with their drynckofferynges.

⁹ Seuen wekes shalt thou nombre vnto the, and begynne to nombre the seuen wekes, whan thou begynnest to put the syckell to the corne, ¹⁰ & kepe the feast of wekes vnto the Lorde thy God, wyth a frewylofferynge of thyne hande: which thou shalt geue vnto the Lorde thy God, accordynge as the Lorde thy God hath blessed the. ¹¹ And reioyse before the Lorde thy God, thou & thy sonne, thy daughter, thy seruaunte & thy mayde and the Leuite that is within thy gates, and the straunger, the fatherlesse & the wedowe that are amonge you, in the place whych the Lorde thy God hath chosen to put hys name there. ¹² And remembre, that thou wast a seruaunte in Egypte: and thou shalt obserue & do these ordinaunces. ¹³ Thou shalt also obserue the feast of tabernacles seuen dayes, after that thou hast gethered in thy corne and thy wyne. ¹⁴ And thou shalt reioyse in that thy feast, thou and thy sonne, thy daughter, thy seruaunte, and thy mayde, the Leuite, the straunger, and the fatherlesse & the wedowe, that are wythin thy gates. ¹⁵ Seuen dayes shalt thou kepe holy daye vnto the Lorde thy God, in the place whych the Lorde shall chose: for the Lord thy God shall blesse the in all thy frutes, and in all the workes of thyne handes, therfore shalt thou be glad.

¹⁴ And they founde wrytten in the lawe (which the Lorde had commaunded by Moses) that the children of Israel shulde dwell in bothes in the feast of the seuenth moneth: ¹⁵ & that they shulde cause it to be declared and proclamed in all theyr cyties, & thorow out Ierusalem, sayenge: go forth vnto the mount, and fetch Olyue braunches, Pyne braunches, Myrbraunches, Palmebraunches, and braunches of thicke trees, to make bothes, as it is wrytten. ¹⁶ And so the people went forth, and sett them, and made them bothes, euery one vpon the rofe of his house, & in theyr courtes, & in the courtes of the house of God, and in the strete by the watergate, and in the strete by porte Ephraim. ¹⁷ And all the congregacion of them that were come agayne out of the captiuite, made bothes, & sat vnder the bothes: for sence the tyme of Iosua the sonne of Nun vnto this daye, had not the chyldren of Israel done so, and ther was very greate gladnesse. ¹⁸ And euery daye from the fyrst daye vnto the last, red Esdras in the boke of the lawe of God. And seuen dayes helde they the feast, and on the eyght daye, they geathered together, accordinge vnto the maner.

¹⁶ Euery one that remayneth then of all the people, which cam agaynst Ierusalem, shall go vp yerly, to worshyppe the kynge (euen the Lorde of hostes) and to kepe the feast of tabernacles. ¹⁷ And loke what generacion vpon the earth goeth vp to Ierusalem for to worshyp the kynge (euen the Lorde of hostes) vpon the same shall come no rayne. ¹⁸ Yf the kynred of Egypte go not vp, & come not, it shall not rayne vpon them nether. This shalbe the plage wher wt the Lorde wil smyte all the Heathen, that come not vp to kepe the feast of tabernacles: ¹⁹ yee, this shalbe the synne plage of Egipt & the sinne plage of al people that go not vp to kepe the feast of tabernacles.

² The Iewes feast of tabernacles was at hande.

³⁷ In the last daye, that great daye of the feast Iesus stode, and cryed, sayinge: If eny man thyrst, lett him come vnto me, & drincke.

¹ When the fyftye dayes were come to an ende, they were all with one accorde together in one place.

¹⁴ Thre feastes thou shalt holde vnto me in a yere.

²³ Thryse in a yeare shall all your mens children appeare before the Lorde Iehoua God of Israel.

⁵ but ye shall seke the place, whych the Lorde youre God shall haue chosen out of all youre trybes, to put hys name there, & there to dwell.

¹¹ when all Israel is come to apeare before the Lord thy God, in the place whych he hath chosen: thou shalt reade thys lawe before all Israel in theyr eares.

⁷ They wyll go from strength, and vnto the God of Goddes appeareth euery one of them in Sion.

⁴² And when he was .xij. yere olde, they went vp to Hierusalem after the custome of the feast daye.

⁸ And they shall eate the flesh the same night: rost wt fyer & wt vnleuended bread, & wt sowre herbes they shall eate it.

¹⁰ And ye shall let nothyng of it remayne vnto the morning. That which remayneth of it vntyll the morowe, shall ye burne with fyer.

¹⁵ Seuen dayes shall ye eat vnleuended bread: and the fyrste daye ye shall put a waye leuen out of youre houses. For whosoeuer eateth leuended bread from the fyrst daye vntill the seuenth daye, that soule shalbe plucked out from Israel.

²⁵ Thou shalt not offre the bloude of my sacrifyce vpon leuen, neyther shall ought of the sacrifyce of the feaste of Passeouer be left vnto the mornyng.

¹¹ All the meateofferynges which ye shall brynge vnto the Lord, shalbe made without leuen. For ye shal nether burne leuen nor honye in any offerynge of the Lorde:

¹² If he offer it to geue thanckes, he shall bringe vnto hys thanckoffrynge, swete kakes myngled wyth oyle, & swete wafers anoynted wt oyle, and kakes myngled with oyle of fyne floure fryed.

¹⁵ And the fleshe of the thankoffrynge in hys peaceoffrynges shalbe eaten the same daye that it is offred. And let hym laye vp nothynge of it vntyll the morowe.

⁴ And there shall be no leuened bread sene in all thy coastes seuen dayes longe, neyther shall there remayne any thynge of the fleshe which thou offrest the fyrst daye at euen, vntyll the mornynge.

²⁶ The fyrst rype frutes of thy lande thou shalt bryng vnto the house of the Lord thy God. And thou shalt not sethe a kydd in hys mothers mylke.

¹⁰ speake vnto the chyldren of Israel & saye vnto them when ye be come into the lande (whyche I geue vnto you) & repe doune the haruest therof, ye shall brynge a shefe of the fyrst frutes of youre haruest vnto the preast, ¹¹ whych shall waue the shefe before the Lorde to be accepted for you: & euen the morowe after the Sabboth the Preaste shall waue it. ¹² And ye shall offer that daye when ye waue the shefe, an he lambe wythout blemish of a yeare olde, for a burntoffrynge vnto the Lorde: ¹³ and the meatofferynge therof, shalbe made of two tenth deales of fyne floure mengled with oyle, to be a sacrifyce vnto the Lorde for a swete sauoure: and the drynkoffring therof shalbe of wyne, euen the fourth deale of an Hyn. ¹⁴ And ye shall eate nether bread, nor parched corne, nor furmentye, nor newe corne, vntyll the selfe same daye that ye haue brought an offrynge vnto youre God. Let thys be a lawe for euer in youre generacions and in all youre dwellynges. ¹⁵ And ye shall counte from the morowe after the Saboth: euen from the daye that ye brought the shefe of the waueoffrynge .vij. Sabbathes complete: ¹⁶ euen vnto the morowe after the seuenth Sabbath shall ye nombre fyftye dayes. And ye shall brynge a new meatoffrynge vnto the Lorde. ¹⁷ And ye shall brynge out of youre habitacions two waue loues made of two tenth deales of fyne floure and that are made wyth leuen for fyrst frutes vnto the Lord.

¹² all the fatt of the oyle, and all the fatt of the wyne and of the corne, whyche they shall offre vnto the Lord for fyrst frutes, the same haue I geuen vnto the. ¹³ And whatsoeuer is fyrst rype in theyr lande whych they brynge vnto the Lord, shalbe thyne: and all that are cleane in thyne house, shall eate of it.

⁵ but ye shall seke the place, whych the Lorde youre God shall haue chosen out of all youre trybes, to put hys name there, & there to dwell. ⁶ And thyther thou shalt come, and thyther ye shall brynge youre burnt sacrifyces, your offrynges, youre tythes, and heue offrynges of youre hande, youre vowes, your frewill offerynges and the fyrst gendred of youre oxen and of your shepe. ⁷ And there ye shall eate before the Lorde youre God, & ye shall reioyse in all that ye put youre hande vnto both ye and youre housholdes, wherin the Lord thy God hath blessed the.

²¹ Ye shall eat of nothynge that dyeth alone: But thou shalt geue it vnto the straunger that is in thy cytie, that he eate it, or thou mayst sel it vnto an Aliant. For thou art an holy people vnto the Lorde thy God. Thou shalt not sethe a kyd in hys mothers mylcke.

² take of the fyrst of all the frute of the erthe, and brynge it out of thy lande that the Lord thy God geueth the, and put it in a maunde, and go vnto the place whych the Lorde thy God shall chose to sett his name in it.

¹⁰ And nowe loo, I haue brought the fyrst frutes of the lande whych thou (O Lorde) hast geuen me. And thou shalt set it before the Lorde thy God, & worshippe before the Lorde thy God,

³⁵ and to bryng the fyrstlinges of oure land, & the fyrstlynges of oure frutes of all trees, yeare by yeare, vnto the house of the Lorde:

¹⁰ A ryghteous man regardeth the lyfe of hys catell, but the vngodly haue cruel hertes.

³ yee, al the customes and lawes of the Gentyles are nothynge, but vanyte. They hewe downe a tree in the wod with the handes of the worckeman, and fashyon it wt the axe:

²⁰ But now is Christ rysen from the deed, & become the fyrst frutes of them that slept.

⁴ These are they, which were not defyled wt wemen, for they are virgyns. These folowe the lambe whythersoeuer he goeth. These were redemed from men, beynge the fyrste frutes vnto God and to the lambe,

¹⁸ In that same daye the Lorde made a couenaunte wt Abram sayinge: vnto thy seed haue I geuen thys lande, from the ryuer of Egypt, euen vnto the great ryuer the ryuer of Euphrates,

¹⁶ And the angell whych hath delyuered me from all euyll, blesse these laddes: & let my name be named in them, & the name of my fathers Abraham & Isahac, & that they maye growe into a multitude in the myddes of the erth.

² And the angell of the Lorde appeared vnto him in a flame of fyre out of the myddes of a bush. And he loked, & beholde, the bush burned wt fyre, and the bush was not consumed. ³ Therfore Moses sayde: I wyll goo nowe, and see thys greate syght, howe it cometh that the bushe burneth not. ⁴ And when the Lorde sawe that he came for to see, God called vnto him out of the myddes of the bushe, and sayde: Moses, Moses. He answered: here am I. ⁵ And he sayde: come not hyther, put thy shooes of thy fete: for the place where on thou stondest is holy grounde. ⁶ And he sayde I am the God of thy father, the God of Abraham, the God of Isahac & the God of Iacob And Moses hyd his face, for he was afrayed to loke vpon God.

¹⁹ And the angell of God which went before the hoost of Israel remoued, and beganne to go behynde them. And the clowden piller that was before the face of them beganne to stonde behynde them,

¹⁷ Thou shalte brynge them in, and plante them in the mountayne of thyne enheritaunce, the place, Lord, which thou hast made for to dwell in, the sanctuary, o Lorde, which thy handes haue prepared.

³⁴ And nowe go thou, brynge the people vnto the place which I sayde vnto the: beholde, myne angell shall go before the. Neuerthelater in the daye when I vyset, I wyll vyset their synne vpon them.

² (and I wyll sende an angel before the: and wyll cast out the Cananites, the Amorites and the Hethites, the Pherezites, the Heuites, and the Iebusites)

¹⁴ And he sayde: my presence shall go with the: and I wyll geue the rest.

¹⁶ And whan we cryed vnto the Lorde, he herde oure voyce, and sent an angell, and hath fett vs vp out of Egypt. And beholde, we are in Cades, euen in the vttermost cyte of thy border.

¹³ And it fortuned that when Iosua was nye to Iericho, he lyfte vp his eyes & loked: and behold, there stode a man against him, hauyng a swerde drawen in his hande. And Iosua went vnto him, and sayde vnto him: arte thou on oure syde or on oure aduersaries.

² And the Lord sayd vnto Iosua: beholde, I haue geuen into thyne hand Iericho and her kynge and the strong men of warre.

¹¹ For he shall geue his angels charge ouer the, to kepe the in all thy wayes.

⁹ In their troubles he was also troubled wt them, and the angell that went forth from hys presence, delyuered them: Of very loue & kyndnesse that he had vnto them, redemed he them. He hath borne them, and caryed them vp euer, sence the worlde beganne.

¹ Beholde, I will sende my messaunger, whiche shall prepare the waye before me: and the Lorde whom ye wolde haue, shal soone come to his temple, yee, euen the messaunger of the couenaunt whom ye longe for. Beholde, he commeth, saieth the Lorde of hostes.

³⁴ Then shall the Kynge saye to them that shalbe on hys ryghte hande: Come ye blessed of my father, inheret the kyngdome prepared for you from the begynninge of the worlde.

³ And yf I go to prepare a place for you, I will come agayne, and receaue you euen vnto my selfe: that wher I am, ther maye ye be also.

⁹ Nether let vs tempte Christ, as some of them tempted, & were destroyed of serpentes. ¹⁰ Nether murmure ye, as some of them murmured, & were destroyed of the destroyer.

¹⁴ And God answered Moses: I am that I am: and he sayde: thys shalt thou saye vnto the chyldren of Israel. I am hath sent me vnto you.

³ I appeared vnto Abraham Isahac and Iacob as an allmyghtye God: and in my name Iehouah was I not knowne vnto them.

⁵ And the Lorde descended in the clowde, and stode with hym there: and he called vpon the name of the Lorde. ⁶ And when the Lord walked before him, he cryed, Lorde Lorde God, mercyfull and gracyous, long suffering, & aboundaunt in goodnes & trueth, ⁷ & kepyng mercye in store for thousandes, forgeuynge wikednes, vngodlynes & synne, & not leauynge one innocent, visytynge the wyckednes of the fathers vpon the children and vpon childrens children, euen vnto the third and fourth generacyon.

¹¹ And the Lorde sayde vnto Moses: How longe do this people prouoke me, and howe longe will it be yer they beleue me: for all the signes which I haue shewed among them?

³⁵ I the Lorde haue sayde that I wyll do it vnto all thys euell congregacion that are gathered together agaynst me. For in this wildernes they shalbe consumed, and here they shall dye.

¹⁹ And whosoeuer will not herken vnto the wordes which he shall speake in my name, I wyll requyre it of hym.

¹⁹ And Iosua sayd vnto the people, Ye can not serue the Lorde: for he is an holye God, and a gelous God, and cannot beare youre iniquite and synne.

¹² Kysse the sonne, lest he be angrye, & so ye perysshe from the waye, yf his wrath be kyndled (yee but a lytle) blessed are all they that put theyr trust in hym.

¹⁹ And blessed be the name of hys maiesty for euer, and all the erth shalbe filled with his maiestye. Amen, Amen.

⁴⁰ For he consydered that they were but flesh: and that they were, euen a wynde that passeth awaye, and commeth not agayne.

⁵⁶ He cast out the Heathen also before them, caused their lande to be denyded amonge them for an heritage, and made the trybes of Israell to dwell in their tentes.

¹⁸ And they shall know, that thou (whose name is Iehoua) art only the moost hyest ouer all the earth.

¹⁴ And therfore the Lord shall geue you a token: Behold, a vyrgin shall conceaue and beare a sonne, and (thou hys mother) shalt cal his name Emanuel.

⁶ For vnto vs a chylde is borne, & vnto vs a sonne is geuen. Upon hys shoulder doth the kyngdome lye, and he is called wt hys awne name: wonderfull. The geuer of councell, the myghtye God, the euerlasting father, the prince of peace,

⁸ Euen I am the Lorde, and this is my name: And my glory wyll I geue to none other, nether myne honoure to grauen ymages.

⁶ that I myght be knowne from the rysing of the sunne to the goynge downe of the same, that all is nothynge without me. For I am the Lorde, and there is els none.

¹⁵ For thus sayeth the hye & excellent, euen he that dwelleth in euerlastyngnesse, whose name is the holy one: I dwell hye aboue and in the sanctuary, and wyth hym also, that is of a contrite and humble sprete do I dwell: that I maye heale a troubled mynde, and a contrite herte.

⁷ Shulde I then for al this haue mercy vpon the? Thy chyldren haue forsaken me, and sworne by them that are no goddes. And albeit that I fed them to the ful yet they fall to aduoutrye, and haunt harlottes houses.

⁶ In this tyme shall Iuda be saued, and Israell shall dwell without feare. And this is the name that they shal call him: euen the Lorde oure ryghteousnesse.

²³ Behold, a mayd shalbe wt chylde, & shall bring forth a sonne, & they shall call his name Emanuel, which yf a man interpret, it is asmoch to say as God with vs.

⁵ Whyle he yet spake, behold, a bright cloude shadowed them And beholde, there came a voyce out of the cloude whych sayd this is my beloued sonne in whom I delyte heare hym.

²³ because that all men shuld honoure the sonne euen as they honoure the father. He that honoureth not the sonne, the same honoureth not the father which hath sent hym.

³⁰ I and my father are one.

³⁸ But yf I do, and yf ye beleue not me, beleue the worckes: that ye maye knowe and beleue, that the father is in me, and I in him.

⁹ Iesus sayth vnto hym: haue I bene so longe tyme with you, & yet hast thou not knowen me? Philip, he that hath sene me, hath sene my father. And howe sayest thou then: shewe vs the father? 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 self: but the father that dwelleth in me is he that doth the workes.

³⁰ And greue not ye the holy sprete of God by whom ye are sealed vnto the daye of redempcyon.

⁹ For in hym dwelleth all the fulnes of the God heed bodely,

¹⁰ Wherfore I was greued with the generacyon, and sayde: They do all waye erre in their hertes: they verely haue not knowen my wayes, ¹¹ so that I sware in my wrath: they shall not enter into my rest.

¹⁶ for some when they hearde dyd prouoke: howe be it not all the came out of Egypt by Moses.

²⁶ For yf we synne wyllfully after that we haue receaued the knowledge of the trueth, ther remayneth nomore sacryfyce for synnes, ²⁷ but a fearfull lokyng for iudgement, & violent fyre, whych shall deuoure the aduersaries. ²⁸ He that despiseth Moses lawe, dyeth wythout mercy vnder two or thre witnesses: ²⁹ how moch sorer (suppose ye) shall he be ponisshed which treadeth vnder fote the sonne of God: & counteth the bloude of the testament, wherwith he was sanctifyed, as an vnholy thyng, & doth dishonoure to the sprete of grace.

²⁵ Se that ye despyse not hym, that speaketh. For yf they escaped not, whych refused him that spake on erth: moch more shall we not escape, yf we turne awaye from hym, that speaketh from heauen:

¹⁶ If eny man se hys brother synne a synne not vnto deeth, let him aske, & he shall geue him lyfe for them that synne not vnto deeth. Ther is a synne vnto deeth, for which saye I not that a man shuld praye.

⁸ I am Alpha and Omega, the begynnyng and the endynge, sayth the Lorde almyghty, which is and which was, and which is to come.

⁸ And vnto the angell of the congregacyon of Smyrna wryte: These thynges sayth he that is fyrst, & the laste, which was deed, and is alyue.

²³ And I wyll kyll her chyldren with deeth. And all the congregacyons shall knowe, that I am he which searcheth the reynes & hertes. And I wyll geue vnto euery one of you acordynge vnto hys workes.

⁷ And wryte vnto the angell of the congregacion of Phyladelphia: this sayth he that is holy and true, which hath the keye of Dauid: whych openeth and no man shutteth, and shutteth, & no man openeth.

³ I wyll also blesse them that blesse the, & cursse suche as curseth the, & in the shall all the kynreds of the erth be blessed.

⁹ He couched hym selfe, and laye doune as a lyon, and as a lyonesse, who shall sterre hym vp? blessed is he that blesseth the, & cursed is he that curseth the.

⁷ And the Lord thy God wyll put all these curses vpon thyne enemyes, and on them that hate the, & that persecute the.

²⁰ Theyr chyldren shalbe as a fore tyme, and their congregacion shall continue in my syght. And all those that vexe them, wyll I vyset.

⁸ for thus sayeth the Lorde of hoostes. After that glorious power hath he sent me out to the Heathen, whych spoyled you, for whoso toucheth you, shall touch the aple of hys owne eye.

⁴ and he fell to the earth and hearde a voyce, sayinge to him: Saul Saul, why persecutest thou me? ⁵ And he sayde: what art thou Lorde? And the Lorde sayd: I am Iesus, whom thou persecutest. It is hard for the to kycke against the pryckes.

¹⁹ the kenytes, the kenyzites, and the Cadmonites, ²⁰ the Hethites, and the Pherezites, and the gyauntes, ²¹ the Amorytes also, & the Canaanites, the Gergesytes and the Iebusytes.

² Whom whan Sichem the sonne of Hemor the Heuite Lorde of the countrey sawe, he toke her, and laye with her, and forced her:

¹⁷ And I haue sayde, I wyll brynge you out of the tribulacyon of Egypte vnto the lande of the Canauytes, and Hethites, and Amorytes, and Pherezytes, and Heuytes, and Iebusytes: euen vnto a lande that floweth wyth mylcke and hony.

²⁰ Beholde, I sende an Angell before the, to kepe the in the waye, and to brynge the into the place which I haue prepared.

² And Aaron sayde vnto them: plucke of the golden earynges which are in the eares of your wyues, your sonnes, and of your daughters: and bryng them vnto me.

⁸ And I brought you into the lande of the Amorites, which dwelt on the other syde Iordan. And they fought with you: and I gaue them into your hand, that ye myght conquere their contre. And I destroyed them from out of youre syght. ⁹ Then Balak the sonne of Ziphor, king of Moab arose, & warred agaynst Israell, & sent & called Balaam the sonne of Beor for to cursse you. ¹⁰ But I wolde not herken vnto Balaam, & therfore he rather blessed you: And so I deliuered you out of his hande. ¹¹ And ye went ouer Iordan, and came vnto Iericho, and the men of Iericho fought agaynst you: the Amorites, Pheresites, Canaanites, Hethites, Girgosites, Heuites, & Iebusites, and I deliuered them in to youre hande.

¹³ Therfore commeth my folk also into captyuite, because they haue no vnderstandynge. Theyr glory is fameshed with hunger, and theyr pryde is marred for thyrste.

⁵ Thou shalt not worshyppe them, nether serue them: for I the Lorde thy God, am a gelouse God, and vyset the synne of the fathers vpon the chyldren vnto the thyrde and fourth generacyon of them that hate me:

²⁰ And he toke the calfe which they had made, and burned it in the fyer, and stampte it vnto powder, and strawed it in the water, and made the chyldren of Israel dryncke of it.

¹³ But ouerthrowe their aulters, and breake their ymages, and cut doune their groues. ¹⁴ Thou shalt worshyp no straunge God. For the Lorde is called gelous, because he is a gelous God:

³ After the doynges of the lande of Egypte wherin ye dwelt, shall ye not doo: and after the doynges of the lande of Canaan, whether I wyll brynge you, shall ye not doo, nether walke in their ordinaunces,

²⁶ Ye shall kepe therfore myne ordinaunces, & my iudgementes, and commyt none of these abhominacyons: nether any of you nor any straunger that soiourneth amonge you ²⁷ (for all these abhominacions haue the men of the lande done whyche were there before you, & the lande is defyled.) ²⁸ Shall not the lande spewe you out also (yf ye defyle it) as it spewed out the people that were before you? ²⁹ For whosoeuer shall commytt any of these abhominacyons, the same soules that commyt them, shall peryshe from amonge their people. ³⁰ Therfore shall ye kepe my watche, that ye committ not one of these abhominable customes whych were commytted before you: and that ye defyle not youre selues therin. I am the Lorde youre God.

⁵² ye shall dryue out all the inhabiters of the lande before you, and destroye all their pictures, and breake asunder all their ymages of metall, and plucke downe all theyr aulters.

⁵ But thus ye shall deale with them: Ye shall ouerthrowe theyr alters, & breake doune theyr pylers, cut doune theyr groues, and burne theyr grauen ymages with fyre.

²⁵ The grauen ymages of theyr goddes shalt thou burne wyth fyre, & couet not the golde and syluer that is on them, nor take it vnto the, lest thou be snared ther in. For it is an abhominacyon before the Lorde thy God. ²⁶ Brynge not therfore abhominacyon in to thyne house, lest thou be a damned thynge, as it is: but vtterlye defye it and abhorre it, for it is a damned thynge.

³⁰ Beware, that thou be not taken in a snare after them, after that they be destroyed before the, and that thou aske not after theyr Goddes, sayinge: howe dyd these nacyons serue their Goddes? I wyll do so lyke wise. ³¹ Nay, thou shalt not do so vnto the Lorde thy God: for all abhominacions, & that whych the Lord hateth, the same haue they done vnto theyr Goddes. For they burne both theyr sonnes and theyr daughters wyth fyre before theyr Goddes.

² But dyd euell in the syght of the Lord, lyke vnto the abhominacions of the heathen, whom the Lorde cast out before the children of Israel. For he went to,

⁹ And so Manasse made Iuda and the enhabiters of Ierusalem to erre, and to do worse then the heathen, whom the Lorde destroyed before the chyldren of Israell.

³ In the .viij. yere of hys raygne (when he was yet a childe) he beganne to seke after the God of Dauid hys father. And in the twelueth yeare he beganne to pourge Iuda and Ierusalem from hylaulters, groues, kerued ymages, and ymages of metall: ⁴ and they brake downe the aulters of Baalim euen in hys presence: and other ymages that were in greater honoure then they, he caused to be destroyed. And the groues, kerued ymages, and ymages of metall he brake and made dust of them, and strawed it vpon the graues of them that had offered to them. ⁵ And he burnt the bones of the preastes vpon the aulters of them, and clensed Iuda and Ierusalem. ⁶ And euen so dyd he in the cyties of Manasse, Ephraim, Simeon vnto Nephthali. And in the wyldernesses of them rounde about, ⁷ he plucked a sondre the aulters and the groues, and dyd beate them and stampte them to powdre, & beate downe all the ymages thorow out all the lande of Israel: and returned to Ierusalem agayne.

³ I wyll take no wicked thinge in hand. I hate the synnes of vnfaythfulnesse, there shall no soch cleue vnto me.

³⁵ But were myngled among the Heathen, and lerned their worckes. ³⁶ In so moch that they worshipped their ydoles, which turned to their awne decaye. ³⁷ Yee they offred their sonnes and their daughters vnto deuel ³⁸ And shed innocent bloude, euen the bloude of their sonnes & of their daughters, whom they offred vnto the ydoles of Canaan, and the lande was defyled with bloud.

⁴⁷ Yet hast thou not walked after their wayes, ner done after their abhominacyons: but thou stodest a lytell & very small tyme, and in all thy wayes thou hast bene more corrupte then they.

²⁶ & sayde: If thou wylt herken vnto the voyce of the Lorde thy God, and wylt do that which is right in his sight, and wylt geue eare vnto his commaundementes, & kepe all hys ordinaunces: then wyll I put none of these diseases vpon the which I brought vpon the Egipcians: for I am the Lorde that healeth the.

¹³ Thou shalt feare the Lorde thy God, & serue him, and swere by his nam

¹³ He wyll loue the, & blesse the, & multiplye the: he wyll also blesse the frute of thy wombe, and the frute of thy londe, thy corne, thy wyne and thyne oyle, & the frute of thine oxen, & the flockes of thy shepe in the lande, which he sware vnto thy fathers to geue the.

¹⁵ Moreouer the Lorde will take awaye from the all maner infirmityes, and will put none of the euell diseases of Egypte (whiche thou knowest) vpon the, but wyll sende them vpon all them that hate the.

¹² And nowe Israel, what doth the Lord thy God requier of the but to feare the Lorde thy God, and to walke in all hys wayes, to loue hym, and to serue the Lorde thy God with all thyne herte & with all thy soule:

²⁰ Thou shalt feare the Lorde thy God, & hym (onely) shalt thou serue, to hym shalt thou cleue, and swere by hys nam

¹³ If you shall herken therfore vnto my commaundementes, whych I commaunde you thys daye, that ye loue the Lorde youre God & serue him wyth all youre herte, & wyth all youre soul ¹⁴ I also wyll geue rayne vnto youre lande in due ceason: the fyrst rayne and the later, that thou mayest gather in thy corne, thy wyne & thyne oyle.

⁴ Ye shall walke after the Lorde youre God, and feare him, kepe his commaundmentes, and herken vnto hys voyce, serue him, and cleaue vnto hym.

¹ If thou shalt herken diligently vnto the voyce of the Lorde thy God, and obserue and do all hys commaundementes, whych I commaunde the thys daye, The Lorde wyll set the on hye aboue all nacyons of the erth. ² And all these blessinges shall come on the, and ouertake the, yf thou shalt herken vnto the voyce of the Lord thy God. ³ Blessed shalt then be in the towne, and blessed in the feldes: ⁴ blessed shalbe the frute of thy body, and the frute of thy grounde, and the frute of thy cattell, the frute of thyne oxen, & the flockes of thy shepe: ⁵ blessed shall be thy basket and thy store. ⁶ Blessed shalt thou be, when thou goest out, and blessed when thou comest in. ⁷ The Lorde shall geue ouer thyne enemyes that ryse agaynst the, that they maye fall before thy face. They shall come out agaynst the one waye, and flee before the seuen wayes. ⁸ The Lorde shall put the blessynge vpon the in thy store houses, & in all that thou settest thyne hande to, & will blesse the in the lande which the Lorde thy God geueth the. ⁹ The Lorde shall make the an holye people vnto hym selfe, as he hath sworen vnto the: yf thou shalt kepe the commaundementes of the Lorde thy God, and walke in hys wayes. ¹⁰ And all nacyons of the erth shall se, that the name of the Lorde, is called vpon ouer the, and they shalbe aferde of the. ¹¹ And the Lorde shall make the plenteous in goodes, in the frute of thy body, in the frute of thy catell, and in the frute of thy grounde, in the lande whych the Lorde sware vnto thy fathers, to geue the. ¹² The Lorde shall open vnto the his good treasure, euen the heauen to geue rayne vnto thy lande in due ceason, and to blesse all the laboures of thyne hande. And thou shalt lende vnto many nacyons, but shalt not borowe thy selfe. ¹³ And the Lord shall set the before and not behynde, & thou shalt be aboue only, and not beneth: yf that thou herken vnto the commaundementes of the Lorde thy God, which I commaunde the thys daye, to kepe and to do them. ¹⁴ And se that thou bowe not asyde from any of these wordes, which I commaunde the thys daye, ether to the ryght hande or to the lefte, that thou woldest goo after straunge goddes to serue them.

¹⁴ Now therfore feare the Lorde, & serue him in perfectnesse and truthe: And put awaye the goddes, whych youre fathers serued on the other syde of the floude, and in Egypte, and serue ye the Lorde. ¹⁵ And yf it seme euell vnto you to serue the Lorde, then chose you this daye whom you will serue: whether the goddes which youre fathers serued (that were on the other syde of the floude) ether the Goddes of the Amorites, in whose land ye dwell. As for me and my howse, we will serue the Lorde.

²¹ And the people sayde vnto Iosua: naye, but we will serue the Lorde.

²⁴ The people sayde vnto Iosua: the Lord oure God will we serue, and his voyce will we obeye,

³ And Samuel spake vnto all the house of Israel, saying: yf ye be come agayne vnto the Lorde with all your hertes, then put awaye the straunge goddes and Astharoth from amonge you: and prepare your hertes vnto the Lorde, and serue hym only: for he shall ryd you out of the hande of the Philistines.

²⁰ And Samuel sayde vnto the people: feare not. Ye haue in dede done all thys wyckednesse, yet departe not from folowynge of the Lorde. But serue hym euen wyth all youre hertes.

²⁴ Therfore feare you the Lorde, and serue hym in the trueth, and wyth all youre hertes & consydre howe great thinges he hath done for you.

³ Whych forgeueth all thy synne, & healeth all thyn infirmities.

¹⁶ He it is, that shall dwell on hye: whose sauegarde shalbe in a bulwarcke of rockes, to hym shalbe geuen meate, & hys waters shall not fayle.

²⁴ There lyeth no man that sayth: I am syck, but all euell is taken awaye from the people that dwell there.

² & layed agaynst the Sunne, the Moone & all the heauenly hoost: whom they loued, whom they serued, whom they ranne after, whom they sought and worshypped. They shall nether be gathered together ner buryed, but shall lye as donge vpon the earth, to theyr shame and despysynge.

¹⁰ Bringe euery Tithe into my barne, that there maye be meat in myne house: and proue me withall (sayeth the Lorde of hoostes) yf I wyll not open the wyndowes of heauen vnto you, and poure you out a blessyng with plenteousnesse.

¹⁰ Then sayeth Iesus vnto hym Auoyde Satan. For it is written: Thou shalt worshyp the Lorde thy God, and hym onely shalt thou serue.

⁸ and than fell sycke and dyed in a lustye age (when he had lyued ynough) and was put vnto hys people.

²⁹ & Isahac fell sycke and dyed, and was put vnto hys people, beynge olde and full of dayes. And his sonnes Esau and Iacob buryed him.

¹⁴ Thou shalt be blessed aboue all nacyons: there shalbe nether man nor woman vnfrutefull amonge you, nor any thing vnfrutefull amonge your catell.

⁴ blessed shalbe the frute of thy body, and the frute of thy grounde, and the frute of thy cattell, the frute of thyne oxen, & the flockes of thy shepe:

¹ So when Dauid was olde and full of dayes, he made Salomon hys sonne kynge ouer Israel.

²⁶ Thou shalt come also to thy graue in a fayre age, lyke as when they take vp a corne shefe in due season.

¹⁰ Their bullocke gendreth, and that not out of tyme: theyr cowe calueth, and is not vnfrutefull.

¹⁷ And so Iob dyed, beynge olde & of a perfect age.

²³ The bloude thrusty and disceatful men shall not lyue out halfe theyr dayes. Neuerthelesse, my trust shalbe in the.

¹⁰ The dayes of oure age are thre score yeares and ten: and though men be so stronge that they come to foure score yeares, yet is theyr strength then but laboure and sorowe: so soone passeth it awaye, and we are gone.

³⁸ He blesseth them, so that they multiplye exceadingly, and suffreth not their catell to decrease.

¹³ That oure garners may be full and plenteous with all maner of stoare: that once shepe maye brynge forth thousandes, and ten thousandes in oure stretes.

²⁰ There shall nether be chylde ner olde man, that haue not their full dayes. But when the chylde commeth to an hondreth yeare olde, it shall dye. And yf he that is an hundreth yeare of age do wronge, he shalbe cursed.

¹⁰ Bringe euery Tithe into my barne, that there maye be meat in myne house: and proue me withall (sayeth the Lorde of hoostes) yf I wyll not open the wyndowes of heauen vnto you, and poure you out a blessyng with plenteousnesse. ¹¹ Yee, I shall reproue the consumer for your sakes, so that he shall not eate vp the frute of youre grounde, nether shall the vynyarde be baren in the felde, sayeth the Lorde of hostes:

⁵ And whan they departed, the feare of God fell vpon the cyties that were rounde aboute them. And they dyd not folowe after the sonnes of Iacob.

¹⁴ The nations heard and were afrayed, sorowe came vpon the Philistines. ¹⁵ Then the dukes of the Edomites were amased, and the mightyest of the Moabites, tremblynge came vpon them: all the inhabiters of Canaan waxed faynte harted: ¹⁶ Lett feare and dreade fall vpon them in the greatnes of thyne arme, let them be as styll as a stone, tyll thy people passe thorowe, O Lorde, whyle thys people passe thorowe, which thou hast goten.

²⁵ This daye wyll I begynne to sende the feare and dreade of the, vpon all nacions that are vnder all the heauen: so that they whych heare speake of the, shall tremble and quake before the.

²³ But the Lorde thy God shall geue them ouer before the, and shall destroye them with a myghtie tempest, vntill he haue brought them to naught.

²³ Then wyll the Lorde cast out all these nacyons before you, and ye shalbe the heyres of great nacions and of them that are myghtyer then youre selues.

²⁵ There shall no man be able to stande before you: for the Lorde youre God shall cast the feare & dreade of you vpon all the lande that ye shall treade vpon, as he hath sayde vnto you.

⁹ & sayde vnto the men: I knowe, that the Lorde hathe geuen you the lande for the feare of you is fallen vpon vs, & the enhabiters of the land faynt at the presence of you. ¹⁰ For we haue heard, how the Lorde dried vp the water of the redd see before you when you came out of Egypte, & what you dyd vnto the two kynges of the Amorites, that were on the other side Iordan Sehon, & Og, whom ye vtterlye destroyed. ¹¹ And as sone as we had heard these thynges oure hertes dyd fainte. And there remayned no moare courage in any man at the presence of you. For the Lord youre God, he is the God in heauen aboue, & on the erth benethe.

¹⁵ And ther was a feare in the host, in the felde, & amonge all people: in so moche that they that were gone out of the watche to robbe, were afrayde also: and the erth trymbled, for the feare that was sent of God.

⁶ For the Lorde had made the hoste of the Sirians to heare a noyse of charettes and a noyse of horsses, & the noyse of a great hoste. In so moch that they sayde one to another, lo, the kynge of Israel hath hyred agaynst vs the kynges of the Hethites, and the kynges of the Egypcyans, to come vpon vs.

¹⁴ And they smote all the cyties rounde about Gerar. For the feare of the Lorde came vpon them. And they spoyled all the cyties and there was exceadynge moche spoyle in them.

⁴⁰ Thou hast made myne enemyes also to turne theyr backes vpon me, & I shall destroye them that hate me.

²⁰ Moreouer the Lord thy God will sende hornettes amonge them vntyll they that are lefte, and hyde them selues from the, be destroyed.

¹¹ And ye went ouer Iordan, and came vnto Iericho, and the men of Iericho fought agaynst you: the Amorites, Pheresites, Canaanites, Hethites, Girgosites, Heuites, & Iebusites, and I deliuered them in to youre hande. ¹² And I sent hornettes before you, whych cast them out of youre sight: euen the two kinges of the Amorites: but not with your owne swerde, or with youre owne bowe.

²² For the Lorde thy God wyll put out these nacyons before the by a lytle & a lytle thou mayst not consume them at once, lest the beastes of the felde encrease vpon the.

⁶³ Neuertheles, the Iebusites that were the enhabiters of Ierusalem, coulde not the children of Iuda cast out. But the Iebusites dwell with the children of Iuda vnto this daye.

¹⁰ And they draue not out the Cananites y dwelte in Gasor: but the Cananites dwell amonge the Ephraites vnto this daye, and serue vnder tribute.

¹² Yet the children of Manasses coulde not ouercome those cyties. But the Cananites presumed to dwell in the same land, ¹³ Neuerthelesse, assone as the children of Israel were waxed strong, they put the Cananites vnder tribute, but expelled them not.

¹ These are the nacyons which the lord left, that he myght proue Israel by them: euen as manye of Israell as had not knowen all the warres of Canaam: ² Onlye for the lernyng of the generacyon of the children of Israel: that he also myght teach them warre, in asmuch as they that were before them, knew nothing therof, ³ Of those whom he left, there were fyue lordes of the Philistines, & all the Cananites, & the Sodonites, and the Heuites that dwelt in mount Libanon: euen from mount Baal Hermon vnto Hemath. ⁴ Those remayned to proue Israel by, and to wete, whether they wold herken vnto the commaundementes of the lorde, which he commaunded their fathers by the hand of Moses.

³⁴ And the Lorde sayde vnto Moses, feare him not, for I haue delyuered him in thy hande, and all his people, and hys lande. And thou shalt do to him as thou dydest vnto Sehon the kyng of the Amorites which dwelt at Hesbon.

³ And your southquarter shalbe from the wildernes Sin alonge by the coaste of Edom, so that youre southquarter reache vpon the syde of the salt see east warde: ⁴ & fet a compasse from the south vp to Acrahim: and recahe to Zinna. And go out from the south to Cades Barne, & go out also to Hazar Adar, and go alonge to Azmon: ⁵ and fet a compasse agayn from Azmon vnto the ryuer of Egipte, and shall go out at the see. ⁶ And let youre westquarter be the greate see: let the same see be your westcoaste. ⁷ And thys shalbe youre northquarter: ye shall compasse youre border from the greate see vnto mount Hor. ⁸ And from mount Hor, ye shall describe youre border, tyll it come vnto Hemath, and the ende of the coaste shalbe at Zedada, ⁹ and the coaste shall reache out to Ziphron, and go oute at Hazar Enan. Thys shalbe your northquarter. ¹⁰ And ye shall compasse your eastquarter from Hazarenan to Sepham. ¹¹ And the coast shall go downe from Sepham to Ribla on the east syde of Ain. And the same border shall descende and go out at the syde of the see of Cenereth eastwarde. ¹² And then go downe alonge by Iordane, & leaue at the salt see. And thys shalbe your lande with the coastes therof rounde aboute. ¹³ And Moses commaunded the chyldren of Israel sayenge: thys is the lande whyche ye shall enherit by lot, and which the Lorde commaunded to geue vnto nyne trybes and an halfe: ¹⁴ for the tribe of the children of Ruben accordyng to the housholdes of theyr fathers, and the trybe of the chyldren of Gad accordyng to theyr fathers housholdes, and halfe the trybe of Manasse, haue receaued theyr enheritaunce. ¹⁵ Two trybes and an halfe haue receaued their enheritaunce on the other syde of Iordan, oueragaynst Iericho eastwarde.

² And the Lord sayde vnto me: feare him not, for I wyll delyuer hym, & all his people and hys lande into thy hande, and thou shalt do vnto him, as thou dyddest vnto Sehon kinge of the Amorites, which dwelt at Hesbon.

²⁴ All the places where on the soles of youre fete shall treade, shalbe youres, euen from the wildernesse and from Libanno, & from the ryuer Euphrates, euen vnto the vttemost see, shall youre coaste be.

⁴ from the wildernes & this Libanon vnto the greate ryuer Euphrates: all the lande of the Hethites, euen vnto the great see towarde the going downe of the sonne, shalbe youre coaste.

⁷ & we will flee before them. In the meane tyme shall ye ryse vp from lying awayte, & destroye the cytie: For the Lorde youre God will deliuer it into youre hande.

¹⁸ And the Lorde sayde vnto Iosua: stretch out the spere that is in thine hand, towarde Hai, for I will geue it into thy hand. And Iosua stretched out the spere that he had in his hande, towarde the citie.

⁸ and the Lord sayde vnto Iosua, feare them not, for I haue delyuered them into thyne hande. Nether shal any of them stande agaynst the.

¹⁹ And stande ye not stylle, but folowe after youre enemyes, and smyte all the hindmost, And soffre them not to entre into theyr cyties, for the Lorde youre God hath delyuered them into youre hande.

⁴⁴ And the Lorde gaue them rest rounde aboute, accordyng to all that he sware vnto their fathers: and there stode not a man of all their ennemyes before them. The Lorde also delyuered all theyr enemyes into their handes.

¹⁴ And behold, this daye, do I entre in to the waye of all the worlde, & ye knowe in all your hertes & in all youre soules, that nothyng hath fayled of all the good thynges which the Lord youre God promysed you:

⁸ And I brought you into the lande of the Amorites, which dwelt on the other syde Iordan. And they fought with you: and I gaue them into your hand, that ye myght conquere their contre. And I destroyed them from out of youre syght.

¹² And I sent hornettes before you, whych cast them out of youre sight: euen the two kinges of the Amorites: but not with your owne swerde, or with youre owne bowe.

¹⁸ And the Lorde dyd cast out before vs all the nacions, specially the Amorites, which dwelt in the lande. And therfore will we also serue the Lorde, for he is oure God.

⁴ And Iuda went vp, and the Lorde delyuered the Cananites & Pheresites into theyr handes. And they slewe of them in Bezek ten thousand men.

²¹ And the Lord God of Israel delyuered Sehon & all his folke into the handes of Israel. And so Israel smote them & conquered all the land of the Amorites, the enhabiters of the sayde contrey.

⁴ Then Dauid asked the Lorde agayne. And the Lord answered him and sayde: Aryse, & go downe to keila, for I will delyuer the Philistines in to thyne hande.

²¹ And Salomon raygned ouer all kyngdoms, from the ryuer vnto the lande of the Philistines: euen vnto the border of Egypt, and they brought presentes, and serued Salomon all the dayes of hys lyfe.

²⁴ For he ruled in all the region on the other side Euphrates, from Thiphsah to Aza; ouer all the kynges on the other syde the ryuer. And he had peace with all hys seruauntes on euery syde.

¹³ And beholde there came a Prophet vnto Ahab kynge of Israel, sayinge: thus sayth the Lorde. Hast thou sene all this great multitude? beholde, I wyll delyuer it into thyne hande this daye, and thou shalt knowe, that I am the Lorde.

⁸ His dominion shalbe also from the one see to the other, and from the floud vnto the worldes ende.

¹² Take hede to thy selfe, that thou make no compacte with the inhabyters of the lande whether thou goest, lest it be cause of ruyne amonge you.

¹⁵ lest yf thou make any agrement with the inhabiters of the lande, and they goo a whoring after theyr goddes, and do sacrifice vnto theyr goddes, they call the, and thou eate of theyr sacrifice:

¹ And Israel dwelt in Sittim, and the people began to committe whoredome with the daughters of Moab, ² which called the people vnto the sacryfyce of theyr goddes. And the people dyd eate, and worshypped theyr goddes,

² and when the Lorde thy God hath sett them before the, thou shalt smyte them, & vtterly destroye them, and make no couenaunt with them, nor haue compassyon on them. Thou shalt make no mariages with them,

¹⁶ Thou shalt consume all the nacions which the Lord thy God shall deliuer the: thyne eye shall haue no pytie vpon them, nether shalt thou serue theyr goddes, for that shalbe thy decaye.

¹⁴ And the men toke of their vitayles, and counceled not with the mouthe of the Lord. ¹⁵ And Iosua made peace wyth them, and made a couenaunt with them, that they shulde be suffred to lyue: & the Lordes of the congregacyon sware vnto them. ¹⁶ And it fortuned, that thre dayes after they had made peace wyth them, they hearde that they were their neyboures, & that they dwelte amonge them. ¹⁷ And the chyldren of Israel toke their Iourney, and came vnto their cyties the thyrde daye: and their cyties were Gibeon, & Caphira, Beeroth and kariat Iarim. ¹⁸ And the children of Israell slewe them not, because the Lordes of the congregacyon had sworne vnto them by the Lorde God of Israell. And all the multitude murmured against the Lordes. ¹⁹ But all the Lordes sayde vnto all the congregacyon: we haue sworne vnto them by the Lord God of Israel, & therfore we maye not hurte them. ²⁰ But this we wyll do to them: We will lett them lyue, lest wrath be vpon vs, because of the othe which we sware vnto them. ²¹ And the Lordes sayd vnto them agayne: Let them lyue, and hewe wodd, and drawe water vnto all the congregacion, and they did as the Lordes sayde vnto them. ²² And Iosua sent for them, & talked wyth them, and sayde: wherfore haue ye begyled vs, sayeng: We dwell farre from you, whan ye dwell amonge vs? ²³ and now are you curssed, & there shall not cease to be of you, bond men and hewers of wodd & drawers of water for the house of my God.

¹ Then there fell an hongre in the dayes of Dauid, thre yeres together. And Dauid enquired of the Lorde. And the Lorde answered: it is for Saul, and the house of bloude, because he slue the Gibaonites. ² And the kynge called the Gibaonites, & sayde vnto them (Nowe the Gibaonites were, not of the chyldren of Israel, but a remnaunt of the Ammorites, and the chyldren of Israel sware vnto them: And Saul sought to sley them, for a zele that he had to the children of Israel and of Iuda.)

³⁵ But were myngled among the Heathen, and lerned their worckes.

¹⁵ Or what concorde hath Christ with Beliall? Ether what parte hath he that beleueth, with an infidell?

² and when the Lorde thy God hath sett them before the, thou shalt smyte them, & vtterly destroye them, and make no couenaunt with them, nor haue compassyon on them. Thou shalt make no mariages with them, ³ nether geue thy daughter vnto hys sonne, nor take hys daughter vnto thy sonne.

³⁰ Beware, that thou be not taken in a snare after them, after that they be destroyed before the, and that thou aske not after theyr Goddes, sayinge: howe dyd these nacyons serue their Goddes? I wyll do so lyke wise.
