¹⁰ He sendeth the springes into the ryuers, which runne among the hylles.

²⁸ when he hanged the cloudes aboue: when he fastened the sprynges of the depe: ²⁹ When he shut the see within certayne bowndes, that the waters shulde not go ouer their marckes that he commaunded. When he layed the foundacyons of the earth

⁷ All floudes runne into the see, & yet the see yt selfe is not fylled: for loke vnto what place the waters runne, thence they come to flowe agayne.

²² Feare ye not me, sayth the Lorde? Are ye not asshamed to loke me in the face? whiche bynde the see with the sande, so that it cannot passe his boundes. For though it rage, yet can it do nothynge, and thoughe the waues therof do swell, yet maye they not go ouer.

⁹ He answered them: I am an Ebrue, and I feare the Lorde God of heauen, whych made both the see, & drye lande.

⁴ And God sawe the light that it was good. And God made a diuision betwene the light and darknesse.

⁴ Perfecte is the worke of the most myghtye God: for all hys wayes are iudgement. He is a God of trueth, without wickednesse: ryghteous, and iust is he.

³¹ The glorious maiesty of the Lord shall endure for euer, the Lorde shall reioyse in hys worckes.

²⁹ And God sayde: Beholde, I haue geuen you euery herbe sowynge seed, which is in the vpper face of all the earth: and euery tre in the which is the frute of tree, and that soweth seed, that they maye be meate vnto you.

⁵ and euery plant of the felde, before it was in the earth: and euery herbe of the felde, before it grewe. For the Lord God had not caused it to raygne vpon the earth, nether was there a man to tyll the grounde.

⁹ Moreouer, out of the grounde made the Lorde God to growe, euery tre that was pleasaunt to the sight, and commodious for meate. The tre of lyfe also and the tre of knowledge of good and of euyll was in the myddes of the garden.

¹⁶ And the Lorde God commaunded Adam, saying: Eating, thou shalt eate of euery tre of the garden.

⁵ He bringeth foode out of the erth, and that which is vnder, consumeth he with fyre.

³ And he shalbe lyke a tre planted by the watersyde, that wyll brynge forth hys frute in due season. His leafe also shall not wither: & loke whatsoeuer he doth, it shall prospere.

⁹ Thou visitest the earth, and blessest it: thou makest it very plenteous. ¹⁰ The ryuer of God is full of water, thou preparest their corne: for so thou prouydest for the earthe. ¹¹ Thou waterest her forowes, thou sendest rayne into the litle valleys therof: thou makest it soft with the droppes of rayne, and blessed the increase of it. ¹² Thou crownest the yeare wt thy goodnesse: & thy cloudes droppe fatnesse. ¹³ They shall droppe vpon the dwellynges of the wildernesse: and the lytle hylles shall reioyse on euery syde. The foldes shalbe full of shepe, the valleys also shall stande so thycke wt corne, that they shall laugh and synge.

¹⁴ He bryngeth forth grasse for the cattell, and grene herbe for the seruice of men: ¹⁵ that he maye brynge fode out of the earth: and wyne that maketh glad the herte of man, and oyle to make him a chearfull countenaunce, and bred to strength mans herte. ¹⁶ The trees of the Lord also are full of sappe, euen the Cedres of Libanus which he hath planted. ¹⁷ Wherin the byrdes make their nestes, and the fyrre trees are a dwellyng for the storcke.

⁸ Whych couereth the heauen wyth cloudes, and prepareth rayne for the earth, and maketh the grasse to growe vpon the mountaynes.

⁸ For he shalbe as a tre, that is planted by the water syde: whyche spredeth out the rote vnto moystnesse, whom the heate cannot harme, when it commeth, but his leaffe shalbe grene. And though there growe but lytle frute because of drouth, yet is he not carefull, but he neuer leaueth of to brynge forth frute.

¹⁰ Euen now is the axe also put vnto the rote of the trees: so that euery tree which bringeth not forth good frute, is hewen downe, and cast into the fyre.

³⁰ Wherfore, yf God so cloth the grasse of the felde (which though it stande to daye, is to morow cast into the fornasse) shall he not moch more do the same for you, O ye of lytle fayth?

¹⁶ Ye shall knowe them by theyr frutes. Do men gather grapes of thornes? or figges of thistles? ¹⁷ Eue so euery good tree bringeth forth good frutes. But a corrupte tree, bringeth forth euell frutes. ¹⁸ A good tre can not brynge forth bad frute: nether can a bad tree bring forth good frutes. ¹⁹ Euery tree that bringeth not forth good frute, is hewen downe, and cast into the fyre. ²⁰ Wherfore, by their frutes ye shall knowe them.

²⁸ For the earth bryngeth forth frute of her selfe: fyrst the blade, then the eare, after that the full corne in the eare.

⁴³ For it is not a good tree, that bringeth forth euyll frute: nether is that an euyll tree, that bringeth forth good frute. ⁴⁴ For euery tre is knowen by hys frute. For of thornes do not men gather fygges, nor of busshes gather they grapes.

⁷ For the erth which dryncketh in the rayne that commeth oft vpon it, and bringeth forth herbes mete for them that dresse it, receaueth blessinge of God.

¹² Can the fygge tree (my brethren) beare olyue beries: ether a a vyne beare fygges?

¹⁰ And lyke as the rayne & snowe commeth downe from heauen, and returneth not thyther agayne, but watereth the earth, maketh it frutefull and grene, that it maye geue corne vnto the sower, and breade to hym that eateth. ¹¹ So the worde also that commeth out of my mouth shall not turne againe voyde vnto me, but shall accomplyshe my wyll and prospere in the thynge wherto I sende it.

¹¹ For lyke as the grounde bryngeth forth frute, & as the garden shoteth forth sede: So shall the Lord God cause righteousnes, and prayse to God to florysh forth, before all the Heathen.

²⁴ Another similitude put he forth vnto them, sayinge: The kyngdome of heauen is lykened vnto a man, which sowed good seed in his felde. ²⁵ But whyll men slept, his enemie came, & sowed tares among the wheate, & went his waye. ²⁶ But when the blade was sprong vp, and had brought forth frute, there appeared the tares also.

⁴⁴ For euery tre is knowen by hys frute. For of thornes do not men gather fygges, nor of busshes gather they grapes.

¹⁰ He that minystreth seed vnto the sower, minystre breed also for fode: and multyplye youre seede, and increase the frutes of youre ryghtewesnesse,

⁷ Be not deceaued, God is not mocked. For whatsoeuer a man soweth, that shall he also reape.

¹³ I haue set my bowe in the cloude, and it shalbe for a token betwene me & the erth.

¹⁹ Ye and leste thou lyfte vp thyne eyes vnto heuen and when thou seyst the sonne, the moone and the starres with all the hoost of heauen, shuldest be desceaued, and shuldest worshippe and serue the thynges, which the Lorde thy God hath made to serue all nacyons vnder the whole heauen.

⁹ Let the starres of that night be dymme thorow darcknesse of it. Let it loke for lyght, but lett it se none, nether the rysynge vp of the fayre mornynge:

³ whose men of warre are innumerable, and whose light aryseth ouer all.

⁵ Beholde, the Moone shyneth nothynge in comparison to him, and the starres are vncleane in his sight.

¹² Hast thou geuen the mornynge hys charge (as sone as thou wast borne) and shewed the daye spryng hys place, ¹³ that it myght take holde of the corners of the earth, and that the vngodly myght be shaken out? ¹⁴ Theyr tokens and weapens are turned lyke claye, and sett vp agayne as the chaungyng of a garment.

³¹ Wylt thou hyndre the swete influences of the .vij. starres? Or art thou able to breke the circle of heauen? ³² Canst thou brynge forth the mornynge starre or the euenynge starre at conuenient tyme, & conueye them home agayne?

³ For I wyll consydre thy heauens, euen the worcke of thy fyngers: the moone & the starres whych thou hast ordeyned. ⁴ What is man, that thou art myndfull of hym? and the sonne of man, that thou visytest hym?

¹ To the chaunter, a psalme of Dauid. The heauens declare the glory of God, and the firmament sheweth his handy worcke. ² One daye telleth another: & one nyght certifieth another. ³ There is nether speach ner language, but their voices ar heard among them. ⁴ Their sounde is gone out into all landes: & their wordes into the endes of the worlde. ⁵ In them hath he set a tabernacle for the sunne, which commeth forth as a brydgrome out of hys chambre, and reioyseth as a giaunt to runne his course. ⁶ It goeth forth from the vttmost parte of the heauen, and runneth about vnto the ende of it agayne, & there is nothynge hyd from the heate therof.

¹⁶ Thou broughtest out fountaynes and waters out of the harde rockes: thou dryedst vp myghtye waters. ¹⁷ The daye is thine, & the nyght is thyne: thou hast prepared the lyght and the sonne.

³ Blowe vp the trompett in the newe mone, euen in the tyme appoynted, and vpon oure solempne feast daye

¹⁹ He appoynted the Moone for certayne seasons, and the Sunne knoweth hys goynge downe. ²⁰ Thou makest darcknesse, that it maye be night, wherin all the beastes of the forest do moue.

⁹¹ They continue thys daye accordynge to thyne ordinaunce, for all thynges serue the.

⁷ Whych hath made greate lyghtes, for hys mercy endureth for euer. ⁸ The sunne to rule the daye, for hys mercy endureth for euer. ⁹ The Moone and the starres to gouerne the nyght, for his mercy endureth for euer.

³ Prayse hym Sunne and Moone, prayse hym all ye starres and lyght.

⁶ He hath made them fast for euer and euer, he hath geuen them a lawe, whych shall not be broken.

² Thus sayeth the Lorde. Ye shall not lerne after the maner of the Heathen, & ye shall not be afrayed for the tokens of heauen: for the Heathen are afrayed of soch:

³⁵ Thus sayth the Lorde, which gaue the sunne to be a lyght for the daye, and the moone and starres to shyne in the night: which moueth the see, so that the floudes therof waxe fearce: his name is the Lorde of hoostes.

²⁵ Therfore thus saieth the Lorde: If I haue made no couenaunt with daye & nyght, & geuen no statute vnto heauen & earth:

⁷ When thou art put out, I will couer the heauen, and make his starres dymme. I will sprede a cloude ouer the Sunne, and the Mone shal not geue her light. ⁸ All the lightes of heauen will I put out ouer the, & bring darckenes vpon thy lande, sayeth the Lord God.

¹ Thus saith the Lorde God: the dore of the innermer court towarde the east shalbe shut the .vj. worcking dayes: but in the sabboth and in the daye of the newe moone, it shalbe opened.

⁶ In the daye of the newe moneth, it shalbe a yonge bullocke without blemish, syxe lambes and a ram also without blemish.

¹⁰ The earth shall quake before hym, yee, the heauens shalbe moued. The sunne & the moone shall be darckened, and the starres shall withdrawe theyr shyne.

³⁰ I will shewe wonders in heauen aboue and tokens in the earth beneth: bloude and fyre, and the vapoure of smoke. ³¹ The sunne shalbe turned into darckenes, and the mone into bloude: before the greate & notable daye of the Lord come.

¹⁵ The sunne & moone shalbe darckened, & the starres shall withdrawe their lyght.

⁸ Ye forsake the Lord that maketh the .vij. starres & the Orions, that turneth the nyght into daye, and of the daye he maketh darcknesse. He calleth the waters of the see, and poureth them out vpon the playne grounde: the Lorde is hys name.

⁹ At the same tyme (sayeth the Lord God) I shall cause the Sunne to go downe at none, and the lande to be darcke in the cleare daye.

² sayinge: Where is he that is borne king of Iewes? For we haue sene hys starre in the east, and are come to worshyppe hym.

² He answered and sayde vnto them: whan it begynneth to drawe toward euen, ye saye, it wylbe fayre wether, for the skye is reed? ³ And in the mornynge: It wylbe foule wether to daye, for the skye is glowmyng reed. O ye ypocrites, ye can discerne the outward appearaunce of the skye: but can ye not discerne the sygnes of the tymes?

²⁹ Immediatly after the tribulacyons of those dayes, shall the sonne be derkened: & the moone shall not geue her lyght, and the starres shall fall from heauen, & the powers of heauen shall be moued.

²⁴ Moreouer, in those dayes, after that tribulacion, the sonne shall wexe darke, and the mone shal not geue her light,

²⁵ And ther shalbe sygnes in the Sonne, and in the Moone, and in the starres: and in the erth the people shalbe at their wyttes ende, thorow dispayre. The see and the water shall roare, ²⁶ and mennes hertes shall fayle them for feare, and for lokynge after those thynges which shall come on the erth. For the powers of heauen shall moue.

⁴⁵ and the sonne was darckned. And the vayle of the temple dyd rent, euen thorow the myddes.

¹⁹ And I wyll shewe wonders in heauen aboue, and tokens in the erth beneth, bloud and fyre and the vapour of smoke. ²⁰ The sunne shalbe turned into darcknes, & the moone into bloude, before that great and notable daye of the Lorde come.

¹² And I behelde, when he had opened the syxt seale: & lo, ther was a great erthquake and the sunne was as blacke as sacke cloth made of heere. And the mone wexed all, euen as bloud,

¹² And the fourth Angell blew, and the thyrde parte of the sunne was smytten, and the thirde parte of the mone, and the thyrde parte of starres: so that the thyrd part of them was darckned. And the daye was smytten, that the thyrde part of it shulde not shyne, & lykewyse the nyght.

² And he opened the bottomlesse pytt, and the smoke of the pytt arose as the smoke of a gret fornace. And the sunne, and the ayer were darckned by the reason of the smoke of the pytt.

¹² Then spake Iosua before the Lorde, in the daye when the Lorde delyuered the Amorites before the chyldren of Israell, and he sayde in the syght of Israell. Sonne stande thou still vpon Gibeon, and thou Mone, in Aialon. ¹³ And the sonne abode, and the mone stode styll, vntyll the people aduenged them selues vpon their enemyes. Is not this written in the boke of the ryghtwes? The sonne (I saye) abode in the myddes of heauen and hasted not to goo doune by that space of a whole daye. ¹⁴ And there was no daye lyke that, before it, or after it, that the Lorde heard the voyce of a man. For the Lorde fought for Israell.

²⁶ Dyd I euer greatly regarde the rysynge of the sonne? or had I the goinge downe of the moone in greate reputacyon?

⁷ Where wast thou, when the mornyng starres praysed me together, and all the chyldren of God reioysed triumphantly?

⁶ It goeth forth from the vttmost parte of the heauen, and runneth about vnto the ende of it agayne, & there is nothynge hyd from the heate therof.

¹⁰ For the starres & planetes of heauen shal not geue their lyght, the sunne shalbe darkened in the rysynge, and the moone shall not shyne with his lyght.

²³ The mone shall be abashed, and the sunne ashamed, when the Lorde of hostes shall raygne in mount Sion and in Ierusalem with worshyp, and in the syght of such as shalbe of hys councell.

¹¹ The Sunne & Moone remayned styll in their habitacyon. Thyne arowes wente out glisterynge, and thy speares as the shyne of the lyghtenyng.

⁴⁵ From the syxte houre was there dercknes ouer all the lande vnto the nynth houre.

⁴¹ Ther is one maner glory of the sonne, and another glory of the moone, & another glory of the sterres. For one starre differeth from another in glory

⁸ And the fourth Angell powred out hys vyall on the sunne, & power was geuen vnto him to vexe men with heat of fyre. ⁹ And the men raged in gret heate: & spake euyll of the name of God, which hath power ouer those plages, & they repented not of theyr euill dedis, to geue him glory.

²³ And the cytie hath no nede of the sonne, nether of the mone to lighten it. For the brightnes of God dyd lyght it, and the lambe was the lyght of it.

¹² Hast thou geuen the mornynge hys charge (as sone as thou wast borne) and shewed the daye spryng hys place,

¹ To hym that excelleth in Githith, a Psalme of Dauid. O Lorde our gouernoure, howe excellent is thy name in all the world, thou that hast sett thy glory aboue the heauens?

⁴⁷ For so hath the Lorde commaunded vs. I haue made the a lyght of the Gentyls, that thou be the saluacyon vnto the ende of the worlde.

⁷ And God made the firmament, and set a diuision betwene the waters which were vnder the firmament and the waters that were aboue the firmament. And it was so.

²² And God blessed them, sayinge: Growe & increace and fyll the waters of the see: and let fethred foules be multiplyed in the earth.

³⁰ To euery beast of the earth also, and to euery byrde of the ayre, and to euery suche thinge as crepeth vpon the earth (wherin is a lyuing soule) I haue geuen all grenenes of herbe to be meat. And it came so to passe.

¹⁹ And so out of the grounde shope the Lorde God euery beast of the felde, and euery foule of the ayre, and brought it vnto man, that he myght se howe he wolde call it. For likewyse as man hym selfe named euery liuyng thyng, euen so was the name therof.

¹⁷ And brynge forth with the, euery beaste that is with the: of all flesshe (both foule & catel, & euery worme that crepeth vpon the earthe) that they maye gendre in the earth, & bryng forth frute, and increase vpon erth.

³³ And he spake of trees, euen from the Cedar tre that groweth in Libanon, vnto the Isope that spryngeth out of the wall. He spake also of beastes, of foules, of wormes, and of fysshes.

²⁴ O Lorde, how manifolde are thy worckes? in wysdome hast thou made them all: the earth is full of thy ryches. ²⁵ So is this greate and wyde see also, wherin are thynges crepynge innumerable, both small and greate beastes.

¹⁰ Beastes and all catell, wormes and federed foules.

²¹ for so moch as a man shulde weery hym selfe with wysdome, with vnderstanding and oportunite, & yet be fayne to leaue his labours vnto another that neuer swett for them. This is also a vayne thing & greate misery.

²⁵ nether is worshipped with mennes handes, as though he neded of eny thynge, seinge he hym selfe geueth lyfe and breth to all men euery where,

²⁰ Of fethered foules also after theyr kynde, & of catell after theyr kynde, of euery worme of the earth after his kynde: two of euery one shall come vnto the, that thou mayst kepe them alyue.

¹⁴ They, & euery beast after hys kynde, and all catell after theyr kynde, yee & euery worme that crepeth vpon the earthe after his kynde, and euery byrde after his kynde, and euery flieng & fethered foule.

¹⁹ Euery beast also and euery worme, euery foule, and whatsoeuer crepeth vpon the earth (after theyr kyndes) went out of the Arke.

⁷ But brynge you forth frute, and multiplye: Gendre ye in the earth, and increase therin.

⁷ and the chyldren of Israel grewe, encreased, multiplyed, and waxed exceadinge myghtye: and the lande was full of them.

³ And the ryuer shall scrall wyth frogges, whych shall go vp and come into thyne house and in to thy preuy chambre where thou slepest, and vpon thy bedd, and into the house of thy seruauntes, & vpon thy people, and into thyne ouens, and vpon thy meates.

¹² Am I a see or a whalfysh, that thou kepest me so in preson?

⁵ Are not deed thinges shapen vnder the waters: & thinges by the waters syde?

²⁴ O Lorde, how manifolde are thy worckes? in wysdome hast thou made them all: the earth is full of thy ryches. ²⁵ So is this greate and wyde see also, wherin are thynges crepynge innumerable, both small and greate beastes. ²⁶ There go the shippes, and there is that Leuiathan, whom thou hast made, to take hys pastyme therin.

² thou sonne of man, take vp a lamentacyon vpon Pharao the king of Egypt, & saye vnto him: thou art reputed as a lyon of the Heathen, & as a whalfysh in the see: Thou castest thy waters about the, thou troublest the waters with thy fete and stampest in theyr floudes.

¹⁷ (

¹⁰ But I will do the sacrifyce with the voyce of thankesgeuynge, & wyll paye that I haue vowed: for why? saluacyon commeth of the Lord.Jon

⁴⁰ For as Ionas was thre dayes and thre nightes in the whales belly, so shall the sonne of man be thre dayes and thre nightes in the herte of the erth.

²⁸ And God blessed them, and God sayd vnto them: Growe and increace and replenyshe the erth, and subdue it: and haue dominion of the fish of the see, and foule of the aire: and of euery lyuing thyng that moueth vpon the earth.

¹ And God blessed Noah & his sonnes, and sayde vnto them: brynge ye forth frute and multiplye, and replenyshe the earth.

²⁷ To whom Laban answered: yf I haue founde fauoure in thy syght (for I suppose that the Lord hath blessed me for thy sake)

³⁰ For it was but lytle that thou haddest before I came, and nowe it is encreased into a multitude, and the Lorde hath blessed the for my sake. But nowe when shall I make prouisyon for myne awne house also?

¹¹ And God sayde vnto him: I am God allmyghtye, growe and multiplye, people and a multitude of people shall sprynge of the, yee and kynges shall come out of thy loynes.

⁹ For I will haue respect vnto you, and make you encrease and multiplye you, and sett vp my couenaunt with you.

¹⁵ Beholde, the beast Behemoth (whom I made wyth the) whych eateth haye as an oxe:

¹² And the Lorde made Iob rycher then he was before: for he had fourtene .M. shepe .vj.M. camels, a .M. youck of oxen, and a .M. asses.

³¹ O that men wold therfore prayse the Lorde for hys goodnes, and declare the wondres that he doth for the children of men.

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

³ Thy wyfe shalbe as the frutefull vyne vpon the walles of thy house.

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. ¹⁴ That oure oxen maye be stronge to laboure, that there be no decaye, no ledynge into captyuitie, & no complayninge in oure stretes.

²² The blessynge of the Lorde maketh ryche men as for carefull trauayle, it doth nothynge therto.

³⁹ Wylt thou hunt the praye from the lyon, or fede hys whelpes ⁴⁰ lying in theyr dennes, and lurkyng in theyr couches?

¹ Knowest thou the tyme when the wylde goates brynge forth theyr yonge, amonge the stony rockes? Or layest thou wayte when the hyndes vse to fawne?

⁵ who letteth the wylde asse go fre, or who lowseth the bondes of the mule?

⁹ Wyll the vnycorne be so tame as to do the seruice, or to abyde styll by thy crybbe?

¹⁹ Hast thou geuen the horsse hys strength, or lerned him to bowe downe his neck wt feare:

⁹ I wyll take no bullock out of thy house, ner he goates out of thy foldes. ¹⁰ For all the beastes of the forest are myne, & so are the catell vpon a thousande hylles.

¹⁸ The hye hilles are a refuge for the wilde goates, and so are the stony rockes for the conyes.

²³ Man goeth forth to his worcke, and to hys laboure vntyll the euenyng.

¹⁹ And so out of the grounde shope the Lorde God euery beast of the felde, and euery foule of the ayre, and brought it vnto man, that he myght se howe he wolde call it. For likewyse as man hym selfe named euery liuyng thyng, euen so was the name therof. ²⁰ Man him selfe therfore named the names vnto all catell, and foule of the ayre, and to euery beast of the felde. And for man founde he not an helpe that myght be present with him.

⁸ Or the increace of the earth, and it shall shewe the. Or the fysshers of the see, and they shall certifye the. ⁹ What is he, but he knoweth that the hande of the Lorde made all these? ¹⁰ In whose hande is the soule of euery liuyng thynge, and the breth of the flesh of all men.

⁵ I am he that made the earth, the men and the catell that are vpon the grounde, with my great power and outstretched arme, and haue geuen it vnto whom it pleased me.

²² And the Lorde God sayde: Beholde, yonder man hath bene euen as one of vs, that he myght knowe good and euell. And nowe lest happly he put furth hys hande, and take also of the tree of lyfe, and eate, & lyue for euer.

¹ This is the boke of the generacyons of Adam. In the daye that God created man, in the lyknesse of God made he him.

² The feare of you and the drede of you shalbe vpon euery beast of the erth, and vpon euery foule of the ayre, in all such as the earth bryngeth forth, and in all the fyshes of the see. Into your hande are they delyuered. ³ Euery thynge that moueth it selfe, and that lyueth, shalbe meate for you: Euen as the grene herbe haue I geuen you all thinges. ⁴ But flesshe in the lyfe therof, and in the bloude therof shall ye not eate.

⁶ Who so sheddeth mannes bloude, by man shall hys bloude be shedde: For in the ymage of God, dyd God make man.

⁷ Come on, let vs go downe, and confounde theyr language, that euery one perceaue not hys neyghbours speche.

²³ For the stones of the lande shalbe confederate with the, & the beastes of the felde shall geue the peace.

¹⁰ For soche a one neuer sayeth: Where is God that made me? & that geueth vs occasion to prayse him in the night?

⁴ What is man, that thou art myndfull of hym? and the sonne of man, that thou visytest hym? ⁵ Thou madest hym lower then the aungels, to crowne hym with glory & worshyppe. ⁶ Thou makest him to haue domynion in the workes of thy handes: and thou hast put all thynges in subieccion vnder his fete. ⁷ All shepe and oxen, ye and the beastes of the felde. ⁸ The foules of the ayre, and the fysshe of the see, & whatsoeuer walcketh thorow the pathes of the sees.

³ It is he that hath made vs, and not we oure selues: we are his people, and the shepe of his pasture.

²⁰ Thou makest darcknesse, that it maye be night, wherin all the beastes of the forest do moue. ²¹ The lyons roaring after their praye to seke theyr meate at God. ²² The sunne aryseth, and they get them awaye together, and lye them downe in their dennes. ²³ Man goeth forth to his worcke, and to hys laboure vntyll the euenyng. ²⁴ O Lorde, how manifolde are thy worckes? in wysdome hast thou made them all: the earth is full of thy ryches.

² Let Israel reioyce in him that made hym, and let the chyldren of Sion be ioyfull in their king.

²⁹ Lo, this onely haue I founde, that God made man iust and ryght, but they sought many inuencions.

⁸ Also, I herd the voyce of the Lord sayenge on this maner: Whom shall I send, and who wylbe oure messaunger? Then I sayde: here am I, sende me.

⁸ But nowe O Lorde, thou father of oures: we are the claye, & thou art oure potter, & we all are the worcke of thy handes.

⁶ And now will I delyuer all these landes into the power of Nabuchodonosor the king of Babylon my seruaunt. The beastes also of the felde shall I geue hym to do hym seruyce.

¹⁷ And Iesus answered them. My father worketh hitherto, and I worke.

²³ Iesus answered & sayd: vnto them: yf a man loue me, he will kepe my sayinges, and my father wyll loue hym, and we wyll come vnto hym, and dwell wt hym.

²⁰ For thou bryngest straunge tydynges to oure eares. We wold knowe therfore, what these thinges meane.

²⁶ & hath made of one bloude all nacions of men, for to dwell on all the face of the earth, and hath assigned before, how longe tyme, & also the endes of their inhabitacyon,

²⁸ For in hym we lyue, moue, and haue oure beinge, as certayne of youre awne Poetes sayde: For we are also his generacion, ²⁹ For as moch then as we are the generacyon of God, we ought not to thinke that the Godhead is lyke vnto golde, syluer or stone, grauen by crafte and ymaginacyon of man.

⁷ A man ought not to couer his heed, for as moch as he is the ymage and glory of God. But the woman is the glory of the man.

¹⁸ But we all beholde in a myrroure the glorye of the Lorde with his face open, and are chaunged vnto the same similitude, from glory to glory, euen as of the sprete of the Lorde.

⁴ in whom the God of this world hath blynded the myndes of them which beleue not, lest the lyght of the gospell of the glory of Christ (whych is the ymage of God) shulde shyne vnto them.

²⁴ and to put on that newe man, which after God is shapen in ryghte wesnes and true holynes.

¹⁵ which is the ymage of the inuisyble God, fyrst begotten of all creatures.

¹⁰ and haue put on the newe man which is renued into the knowledge & ymage of him that made hym,

⁶ but one in a certayne place wytnessed, sayinge, What is man, that thou art myndfull of hym. Or the sonne of man, that thou visitest hym? ⁷ Thou madest hym a lytle lower then the angels: thou hast crowned hym with honour & glory, and hast set hym aboue the workes of thy handes. ⁸ Thou hast put all thynges in subieccyon vnder hys fete. In that he put all thynges vnder him, he left nothynge that is not put vnder him. ⁹ Neuerthelesse, we se not yet all thynges subdued vnto him: but him that was made lesse then the angels, we se that it was Iesus, which is crowned with glory and honour for the sofferynge of death: that he by the grace of God, shulde tast of deeth for all men.

⁷ All the natures of beastes, and of byrdes, and of serpentes, & thinges of the see are meked and tamed of the nature of man.

⁹ Ther wt blesse we God the father, and therwith cursse wemen, which are made after the symilitude of God.

¹⁸ And agayne, the Lord God sayd: It is not good that Adam shulde be alone I will make him an helpe, which maye be present wt him.

²¹ The Lorde God also caused a slomber to fall vpon Adam, and he slept. And he toke one of hys ribbes, & closed vp the flesh in stead therof. ²² And the rybbe which the Lorde God had taken from man, made he a woman, and brought her vnto man. ²³ And man sayde: This is nowe bone of my bones, and fleshe of my fleshe. She shalbe called woman, because she was taken out of man. ²⁴ For this cause shall a man leaue hys father and hys mother, & shalbe ioyned with hys wyfe, and they shall become one flesh: ²⁵ and they were both naked, the man and his wife, and were not ashamed.

¹ This is the boke of the generacyons of Adam. In the daye that God created man, in the lyknesse of God made he him. ² Male and female created he them, & blessed them, and called theyr name Adam in the daye of theyr creacyon.

¹⁴ I will geue thankes vnto the: for I am fearfully & wonderously made: maruelous are thy workes, & that my soule knoweth right well.

⁷ Namely, all those that be called after my name. For them haue I created, fashyoned, & made for myne honour.

¹⁵ So dyd not the one, and yet had he an excellent sprete. What dyd then the one? He sought the sede promised of God. Therfore loke well to your sprete, and let no man despyse the wyfe of his youth.

⁴ He answered & sayd vnto them: Haue ye not red, how that he which made man at the begynnynge made them man & woman:

⁶ But at the fyrst creacyon. God made them man and woman.

⁷ A man ought not to couer his heed, for as moch as he is the ymage and glory of God. But the woman is the glory of the man. ⁸ For the man is not of the woman: but the woman of the man. ⁹ Nether was the man created for the womans sake: but the woman for the mannes sake.

¹⁰ For we are his worckmanshyppe, created in Chryst Iesu vnto good workes, whiche God ordeyned, that we shulde walke in them.

²⁶ that mistery which hath bene hyd sence the worlde beganne, and sence the begynnynge of generacyons: but nowe is opened to his saynctes,

¹⁶ And I will blesse her & haue geuen the a sonne of her, & wyll blesse her: people also, ye and kynges of people shall sprynge of her.

²⁰ And as concernynge Ismael also, I haue herde the: for I haue blessed him, & wyll make him to encrease, & will multiplye him excedyngly. Twelue princes shal he begette, & I will make a great nacyon of him.

¹⁷ that in blessynge I wyll blesse the, and in multiplienge I wyll multiplie thy seed as the starres of heauen & as the sande which is vpon the see syde. And thy seed shall possesse the gate of hys enemies. ¹⁸ And in thy seed shall all the nacions of the erth be blessed, because thou hast herde my voyce.

⁶⁰ And they blessed Rebecca, and sayde vnto her: Thou art oure syster, growe into thousande thousandes and thy seed possesse the gate of theyr enemyes.

³ soiourne in thys lande, and I wyll be wyth the, and wyll blesse the: for vnto the and vnto thy sede I wyll geue all these contreys. And I wyll performe the oothe which I swore vnto Abraham thy father, ⁴ and wyll multiplye thy seed as the starres of heauen, and wyll geue vnto thy seed all these contreys. And in thy seed shall all the nacyons of the erth be blessed,

²⁴ And the Lorde appeared vnto hym the same nyght, and sayde: I am the God of Abraham thy father, feare not, for I am wyth the, & wyll blesse the, and multiplye thy seed for my seruaunt Abrahams sake.

⁵ And he lyfte vp hys eyes & sawe the wemen, and the chyldren, and sayde: whence hast thou these? And he answered: they are the chyldren whych God hath geuen thy seruaunte.

²⁵ From thy fathers God which hath helped the, and with the almyghtye which hath blessed the wyth blessynges from heauen aboue, wyth blessynges of the depe that lyeth vnder, and wyth blessynges of the brestes and of the wombe.

¹⁰ And Iabes called on the God of Israel, sayinge: If thou wylt blesse me in dede, and enlarge my coastes, and shalt let thyne hande be with me. and wylt kepe me from euell that it hurt me not? And God graunted hym hys desyre.

⁵ Amiel the syxte, Isachar the seuenth, Peulthai the .viij. for God blessed hym.

³⁴ For the Lord heareth the poore, and despyseth not his presoners.

¹ A songe of Salomon of the stayres. Except the Lorde buylde the house, their laboure is but lost that buylde it. ² Except the Lorde kepe the cytie the watchman waketh but in vayne. ³ It is but lost laboure that ye haste to ryse vp early, and so late take rest, and eate the breade of carefulnesse: for so he gyueth hys beloued sleape. ⁴ Lo, chyldren and the frute of the wombe are an herytage and gyfte, that commeth of the Lorde. ⁵ Lyke as the arowes in the hande of the gyaunt, euen so are the yonge chyldren. Happy is the man, that hath hys quyuer full of them, they shall not be ashamed, when they speake wyth theyr enemyes in the gate.

³ Thy wyfe shalbe as the frutefull vyne vpon the walles of thy house. ⁴ Thy chyldren lyke the Olyue braunches rounde aboute thy table.

³ forbyddynge to mary, & commaundynge to abstayne from meates which God hath created to be receaued with geuynge thanckes, of them whych beleue, & knowe the trueth.

³ Euery thynge that moueth it selfe, and that lyueth, shalbe meate for you: Euen as the grene herbe haue I geuen you all thinges.

³¹ By these thinges gouerneth he hys people, and geueth them aboundaunce of meate.

¹ A Psalme of Dauid. The earth is the Lordes, and all that therin is: the compasse of the worlde, and they that dwell therin.

¹⁴ He bryngeth forth grasse for the cattell, and grene herbe for the seruice of men: ¹⁵ that he maye brynge fode out of the earth: and wyne that maketh glad the herte of man, and oyle to make him a chearfull countenaunce, and bred to strength mans herte.

²⁷ These wayte all vpon the, that thou mayest geue them meate in due season. ²⁸ When thou geuest it them, they gather it: and when thou openest thyne hand, they are fylled with good.

⁵ He hath geuen meat vnto them that feare him, he shal euer be mindfull of hys couenaunt.

¹⁶ All the whole heauens are the Lordes, the earth hath he geuen vnto the children of men.

²⁵ Whych geueth fode vnto all flesshe: for hys mercy endureth for euer.

¹⁵ The eyes of all wayte vpon the, & thou geuest them theyr meate in due season. ¹⁶ Thou openest thyne hande, and fyllest all thynges lyuinge wyth plenteousnesse.

⁷ The Lorde loseth men out of preson, the Lorde geueth syght to the blynde.

⁹ Whych geueth fodre vnto the catell, & fedeth the yong rauens that call vpon hym.

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.

⁸ But this wolde she not knowe, where as I yet gaue her corne, wyne, oyle, syluer & gold whych she hath hanged vpon Baal.

¹¹ Geue vs this daye oure daylye bread.

²⁵ Therfore I saye vnto you: be not carefull for youre lyfe, what ye shall eate or drincke, nor yet for youre bodye, what rayment ye shall put on. Is not the lyfe more worth then meat: and the body more of value then rayment? ²⁶ Behold, the foules of the ayer: for they sowe not, nether do they reape, nor cary into the barnes: and youre heuenly father fedeth them. Are ye not moch better then they?

¹⁷ Neuerthelesse, he left not hym selfe withoute wytnes, in that he shewed hys beuefytes from heauen, in geuynge vs rayne and frutefull ceasons, fyllyng oure hertes with fode and gladnes.

²⁴ God that made the worlde and all that are in it (seing that he is Lorde of heauen and earth) dwelleth not in tempels made with handes, ²⁵ nether is worshipped with mennes handes, as though he neded of eny thynge, seinge he hym selfe geueth lyfe and breth to all men euery where,

²⁸ For in hym we lyue, moue, and haue oure beinge, as certayne of youre awne Poetes sayde: For we are also his generacion,

¹⁷ Charge them which are ryche in this world, that they be not hye mynded, ner trust in vncertayne ryches, but in the lyuinge God (which geueth vs aboundauntly all thynges to enioye them)

³⁹ Wylt thou hunt the praye from the lyon, or fede hys whelpes ⁴⁰ lying in theyr dennes, and lurkyng in theyr couches? ⁴¹ who prouideth meate for the rauen, when hys yonge ones crye vnto God, and fle aboute for lack of meate?

⁴ How their younge ones growe vp, & waxe greate thorow good fedyng? whan they go forth, and returne not agayne vnto them?

⁸ but seke theyr pasture about the mountaynes, and folowe the grene grasse.

³⁰ Hys younge ones are fed with bloud: & where any deed body lyeth, there is he immediatly.

²⁰ that the mountaynes shulde geue hym grasse, where all the beastes of the felde take their pastyme.

¹⁴ He bryngeth forth grasse for the cattell, and grene herbe for the seruice of men:

² And in the seuenth daye God ended his worcke which he had made. In the seuenth daye also, he rested from all hys worke which he had made.

¹ To the chaunter, a psalme of Dauid. The heauens declare the glory of God, and the firmament sheweth his handy worcke. ² One daye telleth another: & one nyght certifieth another.

³⁸ Out of the mouth of the moost hyghest goeth not euell and good?

⁴ For all the creatures of God are good, & nothynge to be refused, yf it be receaued with thankesgeuynge.
