Revelation 12 Cross References - Great

¹ And ther appered a gret wonder in heauen: A woman clothed wt the sonne, & the mone vnder her fete, & vpon her heed a croune of .xii. starres. ² And she was wt chylde, & cryed trauaylinge in byrth, & payned redy to be delyuered. ³ And ther appered another wonder in heauen, for beholde, a gret red dragon hauynge .vii. heddes, & ten hornes & seuen crounes vpon hys heades: ⁴ and hys tayle drue the thyrde parte of the starres and cast them to the erth. And the dragon stode before the woman whych was redy to be delyuered: for to deuoure her chylde as sone as it were borne. ⁵ And she brought forth a man childe, which shulde rule all nacyons with a rodd of yron. And her sonne was taken vp vnto God, & to his seate. ⁶ And the woman fleed into wyldernes, where she had a place, prepared of God, that they shulde fede her there a .M.ii. hundred and .lx. dayes. ⁷ And ther was a great battayll in heauen, Michael & his angels fought with the dragon, & the dragon fought & his Angelles, ⁸ and preuayled not, nether was their place founde eny more in heauen. ⁹ And the great dragon, that olde serpent, called the deuyll & Sathanas, was cast out. Which deceaueth all the worlde. And he was cast into the erth & his angelles were cast out also ¹⁰ And I hearde a lowde voyce sayinge: in heauen is now made saluacyon and strength & the kyngdome of oure God, & the power of hys Chryst. For is cast doune, which accused them before God daye and nyght. ¹¹ And they ouercame him by the bloude of the lambe, and by the worde of their testimony, & they loued not their lyues vnto the deeth. ¹² Therfore reioyce heuens, & ye that dwell in them. Woo to the inhabiters of the erth, and of the see: for the deuyll is come downe vnto you, which hath great wrath, because he knoweth that he hath but a short tyme. ¹³ And when the dragon sawe that he was caste vnto the erth, he persecuted the woman, which brought forth the man chylde. ¹⁴ And to the woman were geuen two wynges of a great Egle, that she myght flye into the wyldernes into her place, where she is norysshed for a tyme, tymes, & halfe a tyme, from the presence of the serpent. ¹⁵ And the dragon cast oute of hys mouth water after the woman as it had bene a ryuer, because she shuld haue bene caught of the floud. ¹⁶ And the erth holpe the woman, and the erth opened her mouth & swalowed, vp the ryuer, which the dragon cast out of his mouth. ¹⁷ And the dragon was wroth wyth the woman: and went, & made warre wyth the remnaunt of hyr sede, which kepe the commaundementes of God, and haue the testimony of Iesus Christe. And he stode on the see sande.

³¹ And when the prynces of Babylon sent vnto him Ambassatoures, to enquyre of the wondre that chaunced in the lande, God left hym to trye hym, and that all that was in hys hert, myght be knowne.

¹¹ I had rather be a dore keper in the house of my God, then to dwell in the tentes of vngodlynesse.

² Thou deckest thy selfe with lyght, as it were with a garment, and spredest out the heauens lyke a curtayne.

¹⁰ What is she this, that loketh forth as the mornynge? fayre as the moone, cleare as the sunne, and fearful as an armye of men wt their baners.

¹⁴ But Sion sayde: God hath forsaken, & my Lorde hath forgotten me. ¹⁵ Wyll a wyfe forget the childe of her wombe, and not pitie the sonne whom she hath borne? And though, they do forget, yet will not I forget the. ¹⁶ Beholde, I haue written the vp vpon my handes, thy walles are euer in my syght. ¹⁷ They make hast to buylde the vp agayne. As for those that ouerthrowe the, and made the wast, they shall departe from the. ¹⁸ Lyft vp thyne eyes, and loke about the: all these gather them together, & come to the. As truly as I lyue (sayth the Lord) thou shalt put them all vpon the, as an apparell, & gyrde them to the as a bryd doth her iewels. ¹⁹ As for thy land that lyeth desolate wasted and destroyed: it shalbe to narowe for them that shall dwell in it. And they that wolde deuoure the, they shalbe farre awaye. ²⁰ Then the childe whom the baren shall bringe forth vnto the, shall saye in thyne care: thys place is to narowe, gyue place that I maye haue rowme. ²¹ Then shalt thou thynke by thy selfe: Who hath begotten me these? seinge I am baren and alone, a captyue and an out cast? And who hath noryshed them vp for me? I am desolate and alone, but from whence come these? ²² And therfore thus sayth the Lorde God: Behold, I wyll stretch out myne hande to the Gentyls, and set vp my token to the people. They shall bring the thy sonnes in their lappes: and carye thy daughters vnto the vpon their shoulders. ²³ For kinges shalbe thy nursyng fathers, and quenes shalbe thy nursing mothers. They shall fall before the wt theyr faces flatt vpon the earth: and lycke vp the dust of thy fete: that thou mayst knowe how that I am the Lorde. And who so putteth his trust in me, shall not be confounded.

⁵ For he that made the, shalbe thy Lord & husbande (whose name is the Lorde of hostes) and thy redemer shalbe euen the holy one of Israel, the Lorde of the whole worlde. ⁶ For the Lord, hath called the, beynge as a desolate sorowfull woman, & as a younge wyfe that hath broken her wedlocke: sayeth thy God. ⁷ A lytle whyle haue I forsaken the, but wt greate mercyfulnes shall I take the vp vnto me.

¹ Get the vp by tymes, & be bryght, for thy lyght commeth, & the glory of the Lorde is rysen vp vpon the. ² For lo, whyle the darcknesse & cloude couereth the earth and the people, the Lorde shall shewe the lyght, & his glory shall be sene in the. ³ The Gentiles shall come to thy lyght, and kynges to the bryghtnes that spryngeth forth vpon the. ⁴ Lyft vp thyne eyes, & loke rounde aboute the? All these gather themselues, & come to the. Thy Sonnes shall come vnto the from farre, and thy daughters shall gather them selues to the on euery syde.

¹⁹ The Sunne shall neuer be thy daye lyght, and the lyght of the Moone shall neuer shyne vnto the: but the Lorde him selfe shalbe thyne euerlastyng lyght, and thy God shalbe thy glory. ²⁰ Thy Sunne shall neuer go downe, and thy Moone shall not be hydde, for the Lorde hym selfe shalbe thy euerlastynge lyght, and thy sorowfull dayes shalbe ended.

¹⁰ And therfore I am ioyfull in the Lorde, & my soule reioyseth in my God. For he hath put vpon me the garment of saluacion, & couered me with the mantle of ryghteousnes. He shall decke me lyke a brydegrome, and as a bride that hath hyr apparell vpon her.

³ Thou shalt be a crowne in the hande of the Lorde, and a gloryous garlande in the hande of thy God.

¹⁹ Thus wyll I mary the vnto myne awne selfe for euermore: yee, euen to my selfe wyll I mary the, in ryghteousnesse, in equite, in louynge kyndnesse and mercy. ²⁰ In fayth also wyll I mary the vnto my selfe, and thou shalt knowe the Lorde.

¹⁶ The Lord their God shal delyuer them in the daye, as the flock of his people: ffor as precyous stones of a dyademe they shall be sett vp ouer his lande.

² But vnto you that feare my name, shall that Sonne of ryghteousnesse aryse, and health shalbe vnder his wynges: ye shal go forth, and multiplie as the fat calues,

³⁸ Then certayne of the Scribes and of the Pharises asked him saying. Master, we wyll se a sygne of the.

³⁰ And then shall appeare the token of the sonne of man in heauen. And then shall all the kynredes of the earth mourne, and they shall se the sonne of man commyng in the cloudes of heauen, wyth power & greate glorie

²⁵ & the starres of heauen shall fall: & the powers whych are in heauen, shall moue:

¹¹ and greate erthquakes shalbe in all places, and honger, and pestilence, & fearfull thinges. And greate sygnes shall ther be from heauen.

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,

²⁹ He that hath the bryde, is the brydegrome. But the frende of the brydegrome, whych standeth and heareth hym, reioyseth greatly because of the brydegromes voyce. This my ioye therfore is fulfilled.

¹⁹ And I wyll shewe wonders in heauen aboue, and tokens in the erth beneth, bloud and fyre and the vapour of smoke.

²² The ryghtewesnes of God, commeth by the fayth of Iesus Christ, vnto all and vpon all them that beleue. Ther is no dyfference:

¹⁴ but put ye on the Lorde Iesus Chryst. And make not prouisyon for the fleshe, to fulfyll the lustes of it.

² For I am gelous ouer you wt godly gelousye: For I haue coupled you to one man, that ye shulde make your selues a chaste virgin vnto Christ.

²⁷ For all ye that are baptised haue put on Christ.

¹⁴ God forbyd that I shulde reioyce, but in the crosse of oure Lorde Iesu Christ, wherby the worlde is crucifyed vnto me, & I vnto the worlde.

²⁵ Ye husbandes, loue youre wyues, euen as Chryst also loued the congregacyon, and gaue hym selfe for it, ²⁶ to sanctifye it, and clensed it in the fountayne of water thorow the worde, ²⁷ to make it vnto him selfe a gloryous congregacyon, without spot or wrynckle, or eny soche thynge: but that it shulde be holy, and without blame.

³² Thys is a greate secrete, but I speake of Chryst and of the congregacyon.

¹¹ For the grace of God, that bryngeth saluacyon vnto all men, hath appeared ¹² and teacheth vs that we shulde denye vngodlynes and worldy lustes, & that we shulde lyue soberly, and ryghteously, and godly in thys present worlde,

²⁰ the mistery of the .vii. starres which thou sawest in my ryght hande, and the .vii. golden candelstickes. The .vii. starres are the messengers of the .vii. congregacions, And the seuen candelstickes which thou sawest, are the seuen congregacyons.

¹⁹ And the temple of God was opened in heauen, & ther was sene in his temple, the arcke of his testament, & ther folowed lightnynges, and voyces, and thondrynges and erthquake, and moch hayle.

³ And ther appered another wonder in heauen, for beholde, a gret red dragon hauynge .vii. heddes, & ten hornes & seuen crounes vpon hys heades:

¹ And I sawe another sygne in heuen gret and meruellous, seuen Angels, hauyng the seuen laste plages, for in them is fulfylled the wrath of God.

¹⁴ and the wall of the cytie had .xii. foundacyons: and in them the twelue names of the lambes .xii. apostles.

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.

¹¹ With trauayle & laboure of hys soule, shall he optayne frute, and he shall be satisfyed by the knowledge of hym whych is my ryghteous seruaunt he shall iustifye the multitude, for he shall beare awaye theyr synnes.

¹ Be glad now, thou baren that bearest not, reioyce, synge and be mery thou that art not wyth chylde: For the desolate hath moo chyldren, then the maryed wyfe, sayeth the Lorde.

⁷ lyke as when a wyfe bringeth forth a man chylde, or euer she suffre the payne of the byrth & anguyshe of the trauayle. ⁸ Who euer hearde or sawe soche thynges? doth the grounde beare in one daye? or are the people borne all at once, as Syon traueyled in childe byrth and bare her sonnes? ⁹ For thus sayeth the Lorde. Am I he that maketh other to beare, and beare not my selfe? Am not I he that beareth and maketh baren? sayeth thy God.

³ In the meane whyle he plageth them for a season, vntyll the tyme that she (which shall beare) haue borne: then shall the remnaunt of his brethren be conuerted vnto the children of Israel.

²¹ A woman when she trauaileth, hath sorowe, because her houre is come: but assone as she is deliuered of the childe, she remembreth nomore the anguisshe, for ioye that a man is borne into the worlde.

¹⁹ My lytell chyldren, of whom I trauayle in byrth agayne, vntill Christ be fasshyoned in you,

²⁷ For it is written. Reioyce thou baren, that bearest no chyldren: breake forth and crye, thou the trauaylest not. For the desolat hath many moo chyldren, then she which hathe an husbande.

⁴ and hys tayle drue the thyrde parte of the starres and cast them to the erth. And the dragon stode before the woman whych was redy to be delyuered: for to deuoure her chylde as sone as it were borne.

¹⁵ By the head, is vnderstande the Senatoure and honorable man, and by the tayle the Prophet that preached lyes.

¹ In that daye, the Lorde wt his sore, great and myghtye swearde shall viset Leuiathan the fugityue serpent, euen Leuiathan that croked serpent, and he shall slaye the dragon that is in the see.

⁹ Wake vp, wake vp: and be stronge. O thou arme of the Lorde, wake vp, lyke as in tyme past, euer and sence the worlde beganne.

⁴² The toes of the fete that were parte of yron and parte of claye, sygnifyeth: that it shalbe a kyngdome partely stronge and partely weake.

⁷ After this I sawe in a visyon by nyght, and beholde, the fourth beast was grymme and horrible, and maruelous stronge. It had great yron teeth, it deuoured and destroyed, and stamped the resydue vnder hys fete. It was farre vnlyke the other beastes that were before it: for it had ten hornes, wherof I toke good hede. ⁸ And beholde, there came vp amonge them, another lytell horne, before whom there were thre of the fyrst hornes pluckte awaye. Beholde, this horne had eyes lyke a man, and a mouth speakynge presumptuous thynges.

²⁰ I desyred, also to knowe the trueth, as touchynge the ten hornes that he had vpon his heade, and thys other which came vp afterwarde, before whose face there fell downe thre, which horne had eyes and a mouth that spake presumptuous thinges, and loked with a grymmer visage then hys felowes.

²⁴ The ten hornes, are ten kynges, that shall aryse out of the kyngdome, after whom there shall stande vp another, which shalbe greater then the fyrst.

¹ And ther appered a gret wonder in heauen: A woman clothed wt the sonne, & the mone vnder her fete, & vpon her heed a croune of .xii. starres.

⁹ And the great dragon, that olde serpent, called the deuyll & Sathanas, was cast out. Which deceaueth all the worlde. And he was cast into the erth & his angelles were cast out also

¹⁷ And the dragon was wroth wyth the woman: and went, & made warre wyth the remnaunt of hyr sede, which kepe the commaundementes of God, and haue the testimony of Iesus Christe. And he stode on the see sande.

¹³ And I sawe thre vnclene spretes lyke frogges come out of the mouth of the dragon, & out of the mouth of the beast, & out of the mouth of the false Prophete.

³ And the sprete caryed me awaye in to the wyldernes. And I sawe a woman syt vpon a rose colored beast, full of names of blasphemye, whyche had seuen heades and ten hornes. ⁴ And the woman was arayed in purple and rose coloure, and decked wyth golde, precious stone, and pearles, and had a cup of golde in her hande, full of abhominacions and fylthynes of her fornicacion.

⁷ And the Angell sayde vnto me: wherfore maruaylest thou? I wyll shewe the the mystery of the woman, and of the beast that beryth her, which hath seuen heades and ten hornes.

⁹ And here is a mynde that hath wysdome. The seuen heades are seuen mountaynes, on which the woman sytteth, ¹⁰ they are also seuen kynges. Fyue are fallen, and one is, and another is not yet come. And when he commeth, he must continew a shorte space.

¹² And the ten hornes which thou sawest are ten kynges which haue receaued no kingdom as yet, but shall receaue power as kynges at one houre wyth the beast.

¹⁶ And the ten hornes, which thou sawest vpon the beast, are they that shall hate the whore, & shall make her desolate and naked, & shall eate her flesshe, & burne her wyth fyre.

¹² His eyes were as a flamme of fyre: & on his heed were many crownes: & he had a name wrytten, that noman knew but he hym selfe.

² And he toke the dragon the olde serpente, which is the deuyll & Satanas, & he bounde hym a thousande yeres:

¹⁶ when ye do the offyce of a mydwife to the women of the Ebrues and se in the byrth tyme that it is a boye, ye shall kyll it. But yf it be a daughter, it shall lyue.

⁹ Yee, out of one of the leest of these hornes, there came vp yet another horne, which waxed maruelous greate: towarde the south, towarde the east, and towarde the fayre pleasaunt lande. ¹⁰ It grewe vp to the hoost of heauen, wherof it dyd cast some downe to the grounde, and of the starres also, and trode them vnder fete. ¹¹ Yee, it grewe vp vnto the prynce of the hoost, from whom the daylye offerynge was taken, and the place of hys Sanctuary casten downe. ¹² And a certayne season was geuen vnto it, agaynst the daylye offeringe (because of wyckednesse) that it myght cast downe the veryte to the grounde, and so to prospere in all thynges, that it wente aboute.

³ When Herode the kyng had hearde these thynges, he was troubled, and all the cyte of Ierusalem with hym. ⁴ And whan he had gathered all the chefe prestes and scrybes of the people togeather, he demaunded of them, where Christ shulde be borne. ⁵ And they sayd vnto hym: At Bethleem in Iewrye. For thus it is wrytten by the prophet: ⁶ And thou Bethleem in the lande of Iuda, art not the leest among the princes of Iuda. For oute of the shal there come vnto me the captayne, that shall gouerne my people Israel. ⁷ Then Herode (when he had preuely called the wyse men) he enquyred of them diligently what tyme the starre appered, ⁸ & he bad them go to Bethleem, & sayd: God your waye thither, & searche diligently for the childe. And when ye haue founde him, bryng me word agayne, that I maye come and worshyp hym also. ⁹ When they had heard the kyng, they departed: and lo, the starre which they sawe in the easte, went before them, tyll it came, & stode ouer the place, wherin the chylde was. ¹⁰ When they sawe the starre, they were exceadynge glad: ¹¹ and went into the house, and found the chylde with Mary his mother & fel downe flatt and worshipped hym, and opened their treasures & offered vnto hym gyftes, golde, franckincense, & myrre. ¹² And after they were warned of God in slepe (that they shuld not go agayne to Herode) they returned into their awne countre another waye. ¹³ When they were departed, behold, the angel of the Lord appered to Ioseph in slepe saying, aryse, & take the chyld and his mother, and flye into Egipt: and be thou there tyll I brynge the worde. For it wyll come to passe that Herode shall seke the chylde, to destroye hym. ¹⁴ So whan he awoke, he toke the childe and hys mother by night, and departed into Egipt, ¹⁵ and was there vnto the deeth of Herode, that it myght be fulfylled, which was spoken of the Lorde by the prophete, sayenge: out of Egypt haue I called my sonne. ¹⁶ Then Herode whan he sawe that he was mocked of the wyse men, he was exceading wroth, & sent forth men of warre, & slue all the chyldren that were in Bethleem, and in all the coastes, (as many as were two yeere olde or vnder) accordynge to the tyme, whych he had dilygently knowe out of the wyse men.

⁴⁴ Ye are of youre father that deuyll, and the lustes of youre father will ye serue. He was a murtherer from the beginninge and abode not in the trueth, because there is no trueth in him. When he speaketh a lye, he speaketh of his awne. For he is a lyar, and the father of the same thing:

⁸ Be sober and watch, for youre aduersary the deuyll as a roaring lyon walketh about, sekyng whom he maye deuoure:

⁷ The fyrst Angell blewe, & there was made hayle & fyre, which were myngled wt bloud, & they were cast into the erth: & the thirde parte of trees was burnt, and all grene grasse was brent.

¹⁰ And they had tayles lyke vnto scorpions, and there were stynges in their tayles. And their power was to hurt men .v. monethes.

¹⁹ For their power was in their mouthes & in their tayles, for their tayles were lyke vnto serpentes, & had heades, & with them they dyd hurt:

² And she was wt chylde, & cryed trauaylinge in byrth, & payned redy to be delyuered. ³ And ther appered another wonder in heauen, for beholde, a gret red dragon hauynge .vii. heddes, & ten hornes & seuen crounes vpon hys heades:

¹⁸ And the woman which thou sawest, is the great cytye, whiche raygneth ouer the kynges of the erth.

⁹ Thou shalt bruse them with a rodd of yron, and breake them in peces lyke a potters vessell. ¹⁰ Be wyse nowe therfore, O ye kinges, be warned, ye that are iudges of 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.

²² Howe longe wilt thou go astraye, O thou shrynking daughter? For the Lord wyll worke a newe thing vpon earth. A woman shall compasse a man.

²⁵ & knewe her not, tyll she had brought forth her fyrst begotten sonne, and called his name Iesus.

¹⁹ So then, when the Lorde had spoken vnto them he was receaued into heauen, and is on the right hand of God.

² d) Doutles, it is not expedient for me to boast, I wyll come to visyons and reuelacions of the Lord,

²⁶ & whosoeuer ouercommeth & kepeth my workes vnto the ende, to hym wyll I geue power ouer nacyons, ²⁷ & he shall rule them wt a rodde of yron: & as the vessels of a potter, shall they be broken to sheuers. Euen as I receaued of my father,

¹² And they herde a greate voyce from heauen, sayinge vnto them. Come vp hyther. And they ascended vp into heauen in a cloude, & their enemyes sawe them.

² And she was wt chylde, & cryed trauaylinge in byrth, & payned redy to be delyuered.

¹⁵ and out of hys mouthe wente a sharpe two edged swerde, that wyth it he shulde smyte the hethen. And he shall rule them wyth a rodde of yron, and he trode the wynefat of fearsnes and wrath of almyghty God.

³ gett the hence, & turne the estwarde, & hide thy selfe in the brooke Cherith, that is it that lyeth before Iordan: ⁴ Thou shalt drynck of the ryuer, & I haue commaunded the rauens to fede the there. ⁵ And so he went, & dyd according vnto the worde of the Lord: For he went, & dwelt by the brooke Cherith, that is before Iordan. ⁶ And the rauens brought him bread & fleshe in the mornyng, & lykewise bread & flessh in the euening, & he drancke of the brooke.

⁹ vp & gett the to Zarphath, whych is in Sido, & dwell there. Beholde I haue commaunded a wydowe there to sustayne the. ¹⁰ So he arose, & went to Zarphath. And when he came to the gate of the cytie, the wedow was there, geathering stickes. And he called to her, & sayd: fet me I praye the, a lytle water in a vessell, that I maye dryncke. ¹¹ And as she was goyng to fett it, he cryed after her, and sayd: bryng me I praye the, a morsell of bread also in thyne hande. ¹² She sayd: As truely as the Lord thy God lyueth, I haue no bread readye, but euen an handfull of mele in a barell, and a lyttle oyle in a cruse. And behold, I am gathering two stickes for to go in, & dresse it for me and my sonne, that we maye eate it, and dye. ¹³ And Elia sayde vnto her: feare not, come & do as thou hast sayde: but make me therof a lyttle cake fyrst of all, & bringe it vnto me: and afterwarde make for the and thy sonne. ¹⁴ For thus sayth the Lorde God of Israel: the meale in the barell shall not be wasted nether shall the oyle in the cruse be mynisshed, vntyll the Lorde haue sent rayne vpon the erthe. ¹⁵ And she went, and dyd as Elia sayde. And she & he & her house dyd eate a good space, ¹⁶ and the meale wasted not out of the barell, nether was the oyle spent out of the cruse accordyng to the worde of the Lorde, which he spake by the hande of Elia.

⁴ But he hym selfe went a dayes iourney into the wyldernesse, and came and satt downe vnder a Iuniper tree, and desyred for his soule; that he myght dye, and sayde, it is nowe ynough (O Lorde) take my soule, for I am not better then my fathers. ⁵ And as he laye and slepte vnder the Iuniper tree: beholde, an Angell touched hym, and sayde vnto hym: vp, and eate. ⁶ And whan he loked aboute hym: beholde, there was a loaffe of broyled breade & a vessell of water at his heed. And he dyd eate and drincke, and layde him downe agayne to slepe. ⁷ And the Angell of the Lorde came agayne the seconde tyme, and touched him, and sayde: vp, and eate, for thou hast yet a great iourneye. ⁸ And he arose, and dyd eate and dryncke, and walked in the strength of that meate fourtye dayes & fourtye nyghtes, euen vnto Horeb the mount of God.

¹¹ Then the deuyl leaueth him, and behold, the angels came, & ministed vnto him.

² & the queer which is wt in the temple, cast out & meate it not for it is geuen vnto the Gentyles, & the holy cytye shall they treade vnder fote .xlii. monethes. ³ And I wyll geue power vnto my two witnesses, & they shall prophesy a thousande, two hundred & .lx. dayes, clothed in sacke clothe.

¹⁴ And to the woman were geuen two wynges of a great Egle, that she myght flye into the wyldernes into her place, where she is norysshed for a tyme, tymes, & halfe a tyme, from the presence of the serpent.

⁵ And ther was geuen vnto hym a mouth, that spake great thynges & blasphemyes, & power was geuen vnto hym, to do .xlii. monethes.

⁴⁹ He smote their catel also with haylestones, & their flockes with hote thonder boltes.

⁵ For my sweard shalbe bathed in heauen, and shall immediatly come downe in iudgment vpon Idumea, and vpon the people which I haue cursed for my vengeaunce.

⁴ Beholde, I gaue him for a wytnesse among the folke, for a Prynce and captayne vnto the people.

¹³ had not the prynce ouer the kyngdom of the Perses wythstande me .xxj. dayes. But lo, Michael one of the chefe prynces, came to helpe and I was left to contynue ther with the kinges of Persia,

²¹ Neuertheles, I wyll shewe the that thynge, that is fast noted in the scrypture of trueth. And as for all yonder matters, there is none that helpeth me in them, but Michael youre prynce.

¹ The tyme wyll come also, that the great prince Michael, which standeth on thy peoples side, shal aryse vp, for there shall come a tyme of trouble, soch as neuer was, sens there began to be eny people, vnto that same tyme. Then shall thy people be delyuered, yee, all those that be founde wrytten in the boke.

⁴¹ The sonne of man shall sende forth his Angels, & they shall gather out of his kyngdome all thinges that offende, and them which do iniquite:

²⁷ For the sonne of man shall come in the glory of his father, wt his angels: & then shall he rewarde euery man accordinge to his dedes.

³¹ And he shall sende his Angels wt the greate voyce of a trompett, & they shall gather to gether his chosen, from the foure wyndes: euen from the hyghest partes of heauen, vntyll the endes ther of.

⁴¹ Then shall he saye also vnto them, that shalbe on the lyfte hand: departe from me ye cursed into euerlastynge fyre: whych is prepared for the deuyll and his angels.

⁵³ Thinkest thou that I cannot now praye to my father, and he shall geue me more then twelue Legions of angels?

⁷ For though I wolde boast, I shall not be a foole: for I wolde saye the trueth. Neuerthelesse, I spare you: lest any man shulde thinke of me, aboue that which he seeth me to be, or that he heareth of me.

¹² For we wrestle not agaynst bloude and flesshe: but agaynst rule, agaynst power, agaynst worldy rulers, euen gouerners of the darcknes of thys worlde, agaynst spretuall craftynes in heauenly thynges.

⁷ and to you whych are troubled, rest wyth vs, when the Lorde Iesus shall shewe hym selfe from heauen with the Angels of hys power,

¹⁰ For it became him, for whom are all thinges and by whom are all thynges (after that he had brought many sonnes vnto glory) that he shulde make the Lorde of their saluacyon perfecte thorowe affliccyons.

⁴ For yf God spared not the angels that synned, but cast them downe into hell, and delyuered them into chaynes of dercknes to be kept vnto iudgement:

⁹ Yet Michael the archangell when he stroue agaynst the deuyll, & disputed about the body, of Moses, durst not geue raylinge sentence, but sayde, the Lorde rebuke the.

³ And ther appered another wonder in heauen, for beholde, a gret red dragon hauynge .vii. heddes, & ten hornes & seuen crounes vpon hys heades: ⁴ and hys tayle drue the thyrde parte of the starres and cast them to the erth. And the dragon stode before the woman whych was redy to be delyuered: for to deuoure her chylde as sone as it were borne.

⁷ And it was geuen vnto hym to make warre with the Saynctes, & to ouercome them. And power was geuen him ouer all kynred, and people, and tonge, and nacion,

¹¹ And I sawe heauen open, & behold, a whyte horsse: & he that sat vpon him was called faythfull & true, & in rightewesnes he doth iudge & make battayle. ¹² His eyes were as a flamme of fyre: & on his heed were many crownes: & he had a name wrytten, that noman knew but he hym selfe. ¹³ And he was clothed wyth a vesture dipt in bloude, & his name is called the worde of God. ¹⁴ And the warriers which were in heauen, folowed him vpon whyte horsses, clothed wyth whyte & pure raynes: ¹⁵ and out of hys mouthe wente a sharpe two edged swerde, that wyth it he shulde smyte the hethen. And he shall rule them wyth a rodde of yron, and he trode the wynefat of fearsnes and wrath of almyghty God. ¹⁶ And hath on hys vesture and on his thygh a name wrytten: Kyng of Kynges, and Lorde of Lordes. ¹⁷ And I sawe an Angell stande in the sonne, and he cryed with a loude voyce, sayinge: to all the fowles that flye by the middes of heauen: come and gather youre selues to gether vnto the supper of the great God, ¹⁸ that ye maye eate fleshe of kynges, and the fleshe of hye captaynes, and the fleshe of myghty men, & the fleshe of horsses, and of them that syt on them, and the flesh of all free men and bonde men and of small and gret. ¹⁹ And I sawe the beast, and the kynges of the earth, and their warriers gathered together to make batayle agaynst hym that sat on the horsse, and agaynst his soudiers. ²⁰ And the beast was taken, & with hym that false prophet that wrought miracles before hym, with whych he deceaued them that receaued the beastes marke, & them that worshypped hys ymage. These both were cast quicke into a ponde of fyre burnynge wyth brymstone:

¹⁰ ner turne agayne into hys house nether shall hys place knowe hym eny more.

¹⁸ But yf it be taken out of hys place, euery man denyeth it, sayenge: I knowe the not.

⁹ So that the eye which sawe hym before, shall haue nomore syght of hym, and hys place shall knowe hym nomore.

²¹ A vehement east winde caryeth hym hence, and departeth, a storme plucketh hym oute of his place. ²² It russheth in vpon him, and spareth hym not, he maye not escape from the power therof. ²³ Then clappe men their handes at him, yee, & ieast of hym when they loke vpon his place.

⁴ Lest myne enemye saye: I haue preuayled agaynst hym: for yf I be cast downe, they that trouble me wyll reioyse at it.

¹⁰ Yet a lytle whyle, & the vngodly shalbe clene gone: thou shalt loke after hys place, & he shalbe awaye.

¹⁰ All nacions compased me rounde about, but in the name of the Lorde will I destroy them. ¹¹ They kept me in on euery syde, they kept me in (I saye) on euery syde, but in the name of the Lorde, I wyll destroye them. ¹² They came aboute me lyke bees, and are extincte, euen as the fyre amonge the thornes, for in the name of the Lorde I wyl destroye them. ¹³ Thou hast thrust sore at me, that I myght fall, but the Lorde was my helpe.

² Yee, many a tyme haue they vexed me fro my youth vp, but they haue not preuayled agaynst me.

¹⁹ They shall fyght agaynst the: but they shall not be able to ouercomme the for I am wyth the, to delyuer the, sayeth the Lorde.

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.

¹⁸ And I saye also vnto the that thou art Peter: & vpon this rocke I wil bylde my congregacion. And the gates of hell shal not preuayle agaynst it.

²⁵ that he maye take the roume of thys ministracyon and Apostleshypp, from which Iudas by transgressyon fell, that he myght go to hys awne place.

³¹ What shall we then saye to these thinges? yf God be on oure syde, who can be agaynst vs? ³² which spared not hys awne sonne, but gaue him for vs all: how can it be, that with hym he shulde not geue vs all thynges also? ³³ Who shall laye eny thynge to the charge of Goddes chosen; it is God that iustyfyeth: ³⁴ who is he that can condempne? it is Chryst which dyed, yee, rather which is rysen agayne, which is also on the ryght hande of God, and maketh intercessyon for us. ³⁵ Who shall seperate vs from the loue of God? shall tribulacyon? or angusshe? or persecucyon? other honger? ether nakednesse? ether parell? ether swearde? ³⁶ As it is written: for thy sake are we kylled all daye longe, and are counted as shepe apoynted to be slayne. ³⁷ Neuerthelesse, in all these thynges we ouercome thorowe hym that loued vs. ³⁸ For I am sure, that nether deeth, nether lyfe, nether Angels, nor rule, nether power, nether thynges present, nether thynges to come, ³⁹ nether heygth, nether loweth, nether eny other creature shal be able to departe vs from the loue of God, which is in Christ Iesu oure Lorde.

⁶ The angels also which kept not their fyrst estate, but lefte their awne habitacion, he hath reserued in euerlastynge chaynes vnder darcknes vnto the iudgement of the greate daye

¹¹ And they ouercame him by the bloude of the lambe, and by the worde of their testimony, & they loued not their lyues vnto the deeth.

¹ But the serpent was sotyller then euery beast of the felde, which the Lorde God made. And he sayde vnto the woman: yee, hath the Lorde God sayde: ye shall not eat of euery tre of the garden?

⁴ And the serpent sayde vnto the woman: ye shall not dye the death: ⁵ but God doth knowe, that the same daye that ye eat therof, your eyes shalbe opened, & ye shalbe euen as goddes, knowing good and euyll.

¹³ And the Lorde God sayde vnto the woman: Why hast thou done this? And the woman sayde: yonder serpent begyled me, and I dyd eate.

¹ And Satan stode vp agaynst Israel, & prouoked Dauid to nombre Israel.

⁶ And vpon a daye when the children of God cam & stode before the Lord, it fortuned that Sathan cam also among them. ⁷ And the Lorde sayde vnto Sathan. From whence commest thou? Sathan answered the Lord, and sayde: I haue gone about the lande, and walcked thorow it. ⁸ And the Lorde sayde vnto Sathan: hast thou not considered my seruaunt Iob, how that there is none lyke him in the land? a perfect & a iust man: soch a one as feareth God, and exchueth euell? ⁹ Sathan answered, and sayde vnto the Lord. Doth Iob feare God for naught? ¹⁰ hast thou not preserued him, & his house, and all that he hath on euery syde? Thou hast blessed the worckes of hys handes, and hys possessyon is encreased in the lande. ¹¹ But laye thyne hand now vpon hym and touch all that he hath, and he shal curse the to thy face. ¹² And the Lorde sayde vnto Satan: lo, all that he hath, be in thy power: onely vpon hym selfe se that thou laye not thyne hande. And Satan went forth from the presence of the Lorde.

¹ And the children of God came and stode before the Lorde, and Satan came also amonge them, and stode before the Lorde. ² And the Lord sayde vnto Satan: From whence commest thou? Satan answered the Lorde, and sayde: I haue gone about the land, and walcked thorow it.

⁶ When sentence is geuen vpon him, let him be condemned, and let his prayer be turned into synne.

¹² How art thou fallen from heauen (O Lucifer) thou faire mornynge childe? how hast thou gotten a fall euen to the grounde, and art become weaker then the people?

²⁵ The wolff and the lambe shall fede together, and the lyon shall eate haye lyke the bullock. But earth shalbe the serpentes meate. There shall no man hurte ner slaye another, in all my holy hyll, sayeth the Lorde.

¹⁶ Because of thy great marchaundise, thy hert is full of wyckednesse, & thou hast offended. Therfore, wyll I cast the from the mount of God (O thou couering Cherub) and destroye the amonge the glysterynge stones.

¹ And he shewed me Iesua the hye prest standyng before the angel of the lord and Satan stode at his ryght hand to resyst hym. ² And the Lord sayde vnto Satan. The Lorde reproue the (thou Satan,) yee, the Lorde that hath chosen Ierusalem, reproue the. Is not thys a brand taken out of the fyre?

¹ Then was Iesus led awaye of the sprite: into wyldernes: to be tempted of the deuell.

⁵ Then the deuyll taketh him vp into the holy cytie, & setteth hym on a pynacle of the temple,

⁸ Agayne, the deuel taketh him vp into an exceading hye mountayne, and sheweth him all the kyngdomes of the world, and the glory of them,

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.

³⁹ the enemie that soweth them, is the deuyll. The haruest is the ende of the worlde: the reapers be the Angels.

²⁴ For there shall aryse false Chrystes, and false prophetes and shall shew great miracles, & wondres. In so moch (that yf it were possyble) the verie electe shuld be deceaued:

¹² Those that are besyde the waye, are they that heare, then commeth the deuyll, and taketh a waye the worde out of their hertes, lest they shulde beleue and be saued.

¹⁸ And he sayd vnto them: I sawe Satan (as it had bene lightening) falling downe from heauen.

¹⁶ And ought not this daughter of Abraham, whom Satan hath bounde (lo .xviij. yeares) be lowsed from this bonde on the Saboth daye?

³ Then entred Satan into Iudas, whose syr name was Iscarioth (which was of the nombre of the twelue)

³¹ And the Lord sayde: Symon, Simon, beholde, Satan hath desyred to syfte you, as it were wheate:

³¹ Now is the iudgment of this worlde: now shall the prince of thys worlde be cast out.

³⁰ Here after wyll I not talke many wordes vnto you. For the prince of this worlde commeth, and hath naught in me.

¹¹ Of iudgement, because the prynce of thys worlde is iudged all ready.

³ But Peter sayde: Ananias, how is it, that Sathan hath fylled thyne hert, that thou shuldest lye vnto the holy goost, and kepe awaye parte of the pryce of the lande?

¹⁸ to open their eyes, that they maye be turned from darckness to light, and from the power of Satan vnto God, that they maye receaue forgeuenes of synnes, and inheritaunce amonge them whych are sanctified by fayth that is toward me.

¹⁸ For they that are suche, serue not the Lorde Iesus Christ, but their awne bellyes, & with swete and flatterynge wordes, deceaue the hertes of the innocentes.

²⁰ The God of peace shall treade Satan vnder youre fete shortly. The grace of oure Lorde Iesu Christ be with you.

¹¹ lest Satan shuld preuent vs. For his thoughtes are not vnknowen vnto vs.

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.

³ But I feare lest it come to passe that as the serpent begyled Eue thorowe hys subteltye, euen so your wittes shulde be corrupte from the synglenes that ye had toward Christ.

¹⁴ And no maruayle: for Satan him selfe is chaunged into the fassyon of an angell of light.

¹⁴ That we hence forth shulde be nomore chyldren, wauerynge & caryed aboute with euery wynde of doctrine, by the wylynes of men, thorowe craftynes, wherby they laye a wayte for vs to deceaue vs.

³ Let no man deceaue you by eny meanes, for the Lorde shall not come excepte ther come a departynge fyrst, and that that synfull man be opened, the sonne of perdicyon,

⁹ euen hym whose commynge is after the workynge of Satan, with all lyinge power sygnes and wonders. ¹⁰ and with all deceauablenes of vnryghtwesnes, amonge them that perysshe: because they receaued not the loue of the trueth, that they myght be saued. ¹¹ And therfore, God shall sende them stronge delusyon, that they shulde beleue lyes:

¹⁴ Adam also was not deceaued, but the woman was deceaued, and was subdued to the transgressyon.

⁶ He maye not be a yonge scoler, lest he swell and fall into the iudgement of the euyll speaker. ⁷ He must also haue a good reporte of them whych are without, lest he fall into rebuke, and snare of the euyll speaker.

¹³ But the euyll men & disceauers shall wexe worsse and worsse, whill they deceaue and are deceaued them selues.

¹⁴ For as moch then as the chyldren are partetakers of flesshe and bloud, he also him selfe lykewyse toke parte with them that (thorowe deeth) he myght expell hym that had lordshyppe ouer deeth, that is to saye the deuyll,

⁸ He that committeth synne, is of the deuyll: for the deuyll synneth sence the beginnynge. For this purpose appeared the sonne of God, to lowse the worckes of the deuyl. ⁹ Whosoeuer is borne of God, synneth not: for his seed remayneth in him, and he cannot synne, because he is borne of God. ¹⁰ In thys are the chyldren of God knowen, and the chyldren of the deuyll. Whosoeuer doeth not ryghteousnes, is not of God, nether he that loueth not hys brother.

¹⁹ We knowe, that we are of God, and the worlde is all together set on wyckednes.

⁹ I know thy workes & tribulacyon and pouerte, but thou art ryche. And I knowe the blasphemy of them, whych call them selues Iewes & are not: but are the congregacyon of Sathan.

¹³ I knowe thy workes, & where thou dwellest, euen where Sathanas seat is, and thou kepest my name, & hast not denyed my fayth. And in my dayes Antipas was a faythfull wytnes of myne, whych was slayne amonge you, where Sathan dwelleth.

²⁴ Unto you I saye, and vnto other of them of Thyatira, as many as haue not this lernyng & which haue not knowen the depnes of Sathan (as they saye) I wyll put vpon you none other burthen,

⁹ Beholde, I make them of the congregacyon of Sathan, whych call them selues Iewes, and are not, but do lye: Beholde, I wyll make them that they shall come, and worshypp before thy fete: and shall knowe, that I haue loued the.

¹ And the fyft Angell blewe, and I saw a starre fall from heauen vnto the erth. And to him was geuen the kaye of the bottomlesse pytt:

²⁰ And the remanaunt of the men whych were not kylled by these plages, repented not of the dedes of their handes that they shulde not worshyppe deuyls, & ymages of golde and syluer, and brasse, and stone, and of wood, whych nether can se, nether heare, nether go.

⁷ And ther was a great battayll in heauen, Michael & his angels fought with the dragon, & the dragon fought & his Angelles,

¹⁴ And to the woman were geuen two wynges of a great Egle, that she myght flye into the wyldernes into her place, where she is norysshed for a tyme, tymes, & halfe a tyme, from the presence of the serpent. ¹⁵ And the dragon cast oute of hys mouth water after the woman as it had bene a ryuer, because she shuld haue bene caught of the floud.

¹⁴ And deceaued them that dwelt on the erth, by the meanes of those sygnes whyche he had power to do in the syght of the beast, sayinge to them that dwelt on the erth: that they shuld make an ymage vnto the beast, whych had the wounde of a swearde, and dyd lyue.

¹⁴ For they are the spretes of deuyls, workyng myracles, to go out vnto the kynges of the erth and of the whole world, to gathre them to the battayle of that gret daye of God almyghty.

² And he cryed myghtely with a stronge voyce, sayinge: Great Babylon is fallen, is fallen, and is become the inhabitacion of deuyls, and the holde of all fowle spretes, and a cage of all vncleane and hatefull byrdes,

²³ and the voyce of the brydegrom and of the bryde, shalbe herd no more in the, for thy marchauntes were the gret men of the erth. And wt thyne inchauntment were deceaued al nacions:

²⁰ And the beast was taken, & with hym that false prophet that wrought miracles before hym, with whych he deceaued them that receaued the beastes marke, & them that worshypped hys ymage. These both were cast quicke into a ponde of fyre burnynge wyth brymstone:

² And he toke the dragon the olde serpente, which is the deuyll & Satanas, & he bounde hym a thousande yeres: ³ and cast hym into the bottomlesse pyt, and he shutte hym vp, and set a seale on hym, that he shulde deceaue the people nomore, tyll the thousande yeres were fulfylled. And after that he must be losed for a lytell season.

⁸ and shall go out to deceaue the people, whych are in the foure quarters of the erth, Gog & Magog, to gather them together to battayle, whose nombre is as the sonde of the see:

¹⁰ and the deuyll that deceaued them, was cast into a lake of fyre and brymstone, where the beast and the false prophetes shalbe tormented daye and nyght for euermore.

¹¹ Thyne (O Lorde) is greatnesse, and power, glorie, victorie and prayse: for all that is in heauen and in erth is thyne, & thyne is the kyngdom (O Lorde) and thou excellest aboue all, euen as the heed of all.

⁹ Sathan answered, and sayde vnto the Lord. Doth Iob feare God for naught?

¹¹ But laye thyne hand now vpon hym and touch all that he hath, and he shal curse the to thy face.

⁵ But laye thyne hand now vpon him, and touch once his bone and flesh, and he shall curse the to thy face.

⁸ Desyre of me, and I shall geue the, the Heythen for thyne enheritaunce, & the vtmost partes of the erthe for thy possessyon. ⁹ Thou shalt bruse them with a rodd of yron, and breake them in peces lyke a potters vessell. ¹⁰ Be wyse nowe therfore, O ye kinges, be warned, ye that are iudges of the earth. ¹¹ Serue the Lorde in feare, and reioyse. with reuerence. 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.

²⁸ For the kyngdom is the Lordes, and he is the gouernoure amonge the people.

⁶ Thy arowes are very sharpe, & the people shalbe subdued vnto the, euen in the myddest amonge the kynges enemyes.

⁵ The Lorde vpon thy ryght hande, shall wounde euen kynges in the daye of his wrath. ⁶ He shall be iudge among the Heathen, he shall fyll the places with deed bodyes, & smyte a sonder the heades ouer diuerse countres.

¹¹ They shewe the glory of thy kingdome, and talke of thy power. ¹² That thy power, thy glory & mightinesse of thy kyngdome, myght be knowne vnto men. ¹³ Thy Kyngdome is an euerlastynge kyngdome, & thy dominion endureth thorowe out all ages.

⁴⁴ In the dayes of these kynges, shall the God of heauen set vp an euerlasting kyngdome whych shall not perish, & his kyngdome shal not be geuen ouer to another people: yee, the same shall breake & destroye all these kyngdomes, but it shall endure for euer.

¹⁰ Lett thy kyngdome come. Thy will be fulfylled, as well in earth, as it is in heauen.

⁶⁴ Iesus sayeth vnto hym, thou hast sayd. Neuerthelesse I saye vnto you here after shall ye se the sonne of man syttinge on the right hande of power, and commyng in the cloudes of the skye.

¹⁸ And Iesus came, and spake vnto them, sayinge: All power is geuen vnto me in heauen, & in erth.

² And he sayde vnto them: when ye praye, saye. O oure father which art in heauen, halowed be thy name. Thy kyngdome come. Thy will be fulfilled, euen in erth also as it is in heauen.

⁴ in the name of oure Lord Iesu Christ, when ye are gathered together, and my sprete wt you, with the power of the Lorde Iesus Chryst

⁹ For this thynge besought I the Lorde thryse, that it might departe from me.

³ the elder wemen lykewyse, that they be in soche rayment as be commeth holynes, not beynge false accusars, not geuen to moch wyne, but that they teache honest thynges,

²⁶ & whosoeuer ouercommeth & kepeth my workes vnto the ende, to hym wyll I geue power ouer nacyons,

¹⁰ & cryed with a lowde voyce, sayinge: saluacyon be asscribed to him that sytteth vpon the seate of oure God, & vnto the lambe.

¹⁵ And the seuenth Angell blewe, & ther were made greate voyces in heauen, sayinge: the kyngdoms of this worlde are oure lordes, and his Christes, & he shall raygne for euermore.

¹ And after that, I herde a greate voyce of moch people in heauen saying: Alleluia. Saluacion & glory & honour & power be ascribed to the Lorde our God, ² for true and ryghteous are his iudgementes, for he hath iudged the gret whore which dyd corrupt the erth wt her fornicacion, & hath auenged the bloud of his seruauntes of hyr hande. ³ And agayn they said: Alleluia. And smoke rose vp for euermore. ⁴ And the .xxiiii. elders, & the .iiii. bestes fell downe, & worshipped God that sate on the seate, saying: Amen, Alleluia. ⁵ And a voyce came out of the seat, sayinge: praise our Lord God all ye that are his seruauntes, & ye that feare hym both small and great. ⁶ And I herde the voyce of moche people euen as the voyce of many waters, & as the voyce of strong thondrynges sayinge: Alleluia, for the Lord our God omnipotent raygneth. ⁷ Let vs be glad and reioyce, & geue honoure to him, for the mariage of the lambe is come, and hys wyfe made her selfe ready.

²⁶ If a man come to me, and hate not hys father and mother, and wyfe and chyldren, and brethren, and systers, yee, and his awne lyfe also, he cannot be my disciple.

³³ These wordes haue I spoken vnto you, that in me ye myghte haue peace. For in the worlde shall ye haue tribulacyon: but be of good chere, I haue ouercome the worlde.

²⁴ But none of these thinges moue me nether is my lyfe deare vnto my selfe, that I might fulfyll my course with ioye, and the ministracyon which I haue receaued of the Lorde Iesu, to testifye the Gospell of the grace of God.

¹³ Then Paul answered, & sayde: what do ye wepynge & veryng myne herte? I am ready, not to be bounde onely, but also to dye at Ierusalem for the name of the Lorde Iesu.

⁵⁷ But thankes be vnto God which hath geuen vs victory, thorowe oure Lord Iesus Christ.

³ For though we walke in the flesshe, yet we do not warre flesshly. ⁴ For the weapens of oure warrefare are not carnall thynges, but thynges myghty in God, to cast downe stronge holdes, ⁵ wherewith we ouerthrowe councels and euery hye thynge that exalteth it selfe agaynst the knowledge of God, and brynge into captiuyte all ymaginacion to the obedience of Christ,

¹³ Wherfore take vnto you the whole armoure of God, that ye maye be able to resyste in the euyll daye, and stande perfecte in all thinges. ¹⁴ Stande therfore, and youre loynes gyrd with the trueth, hauynge on the brest plate of ryghtewesnes, ¹⁵ & hauynge shoes on youre fete, that ye maye be prepared for the Gospell of peace. ¹⁶ Aboue all, take to you the shylde of fayth, wherwith ye maye quenche all the fyrie dartes of the wycked. ¹⁷ And take the helmet of saluacyon, and the swearde of the sprete, which is the worde of God. ¹⁸ And praye all wayes with all maner of prayer and supplicacyon in the sprete: and watch ther vnto with all instance and supplycacyon for all saynctes

⁷ I haue fought a good fyght, I haue fulfylled my course, I haue kept the fayth. ⁸ From hence forth ther is layde vp for me a crowne of ryghtewesnes, which the Lorde (that is a ryghteous iudge) shall geue me at that daye: not to me onely, but vnto all them also that loue his comminge.

¹⁴ For as moch then as the chyldren are partetakers of flesshe and bloud, he also him selfe lykewyse toke parte with them that (thorowe deeth) he myght expell hym that had lordshyppe ouer deeth, that is to saye the deuyll, ¹⁵ and that he myght delyuer them, which thorowe feare of deeth were all there lyfe tyme subdued vnto bondage.

³⁵ the wemen receaued theyr deed raysed to lyfe agayne. Other were racked, & wolde not be delyuered, that they myght inheret a better resurrection. ³⁶ Agayne, other were tried wt mockynges & scourginges moreouer, wt bondes & presonment: ³⁷ were stoned, were hewen asunder, were tempted, were slayne wt swearde, walked vp & downe in shepe skynnes, and goates skynnes, being destitute, troubled & vexed: ³⁸ which men that worlde was not worthy of: they wandred in wildernesses: & in mountaynes, and in dennes, and caues of erth.

¹³ I wryte vnto you fathers, how that ye haue knowne him that is from the beginnynge. I wryte vnto you yonge men, how that ye haue ouercome the wicked: I write vnto you lytell chyldren, how that ye haue knowen the father. ¹⁴ I haue wryten vnto you fathers, how that ye haue knowne hym that is from the beginnynge. I haue wryten vnto you yonge men, how that ye are stronge, and the worde of God abydeth in you, and ye haue ouercome that wycked.

⁴ Lyttell chyldren, ye are of God, and haue ouercome them: for greater is he that is in you, then he that is in the worlde.

⁵ Who is it that ouercommeth the worlde: but he which beleueth, that Iesus is the sonne of God?

² which bare recorde of the worde of God, and of the testymony of Iesus Christ, and of all thynges that he sawe.

⁹ I Iohn youre brother, and companion in tribulacion, and in the kyngdome & pacience in Iesu Christ, was in the yle that is called Pathmos, for the worde of God, and for the witnessing of Iesu Christ:

⁷ Lett hym that hath eares, heare what the sprete sayth vnto the congregacyons. To hym that ouercommeth, wyll I geue to eate of the tre of lyfe, which is in the myddes of the Paradyse of God.

¹⁰ Feare none of those thynges, which thou shalt suffre. Beholde, the deuyll shall caste some of you into preson, to tempte you, & ye shall haue tribulacyon ten dayes. Be faythfull vnto the deeth, and I wyll geue the a croune of lyfe. ¹¹ Let hym that hath eares, heare, what the sprete sayth to the congregacyons. He that ouercommeth, shall not be hurt of the seconde deeth.

¹⁷ Let hym that hath eares, heare, what the sprete sayth vnto the congregacyons. To hym that ouercommeth, wyll I geue to eate Manna that is hyd, & wyll geue hym a whyte stone, & in the stone a newe name wrytten, which no man knoweth, sauynge he that receaueth it.

⁵ He that ouercommeth, shalbe thus clothed in whyte araye, and I wyll not put out his name out of the boke of lyfe, and I wyll confesse hys name before my father, and before hys Angels.

¹² Hym that ouercommeth, wyll I make a pyllar in the temple of my God, & he shall go nomore out, And I wyll wryte vpon hym, the name of my God and the name of the cytye of my God, new Ierusalem: whych commeth downe out of heauen from my God, and I wyll wryte vpon hym my new name.

²¹ To hym that ouercommeth wyll I graunte to syt with me in my seate, euen as I ouercam, & haue sytten with my father in his seate.

⁹ And when he had opened the fyft seale, I saw vnder the aultre the soules of them that were kylled for the worde of God, & for the testymony whych they had,

¹⁰ & cryed with a lowde voyce, sayinge: saluacyon be asscribed to him that sytteth vpon the seate of oure God, & vnto the lambe. ¹¹ And all the angels stode in the compase of the seate, & of the elders & of the foure bestes, & fell before the seat on their faces, and worshypped God, ¹² sayinge, Amen: Blessinge & glory & wysdome & thankes, and honour, & power, & myght, be vnto oure God for euermore. Amen. ¹³ And one of the elders answered, sayinge vnto me: what are these which are arayed in longe whyte garmentes, & whence came they? ¹⁴ And I sayde vnto him: Lord thou wotest. And he sayde to me: these are they, whych came out of great tribulacyon, & made their garmentes large, & made them white by the bloude of the lambe:

⁷ And when they haue finysshed their testimony, the beast that cam out of the bottomlesse pyt, shall make warre agaynst them, & shall ouercome them, & kyll them.

¹⁷ And the dragon was wroth wyth the woman: and went, & made warre wyth the remnaunt of hyr sede, which kepe the commaundementes of God, and haue the testimony of Iesus Christe. And he stode on the see sande.

¹ And I loked, and lo, a lambe stode on the mount Syon, & with hym an .C. & .xliiii. thousande hauynge his fathers name written in theyr forheddes. ² And I herde a voyce from heuen, as the sounde of many waters, and as the voyce of a gret thoundre. And I herde the voyce of harpers harpynge with theyr harpes. ³ And they songe as it were a newe songe, before the seate, & before the foure beastes, & the elders, & no man coulde learne that songe, but the hondred & .xliii.M. which were redemed from the erth. 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,

² And I sawe as it were a glassye see, myngled wt fyre, & them that had gotten victory of the beast, and of hys ymage, and of the nombre of hys name, stande on the glassye see, hauyng the harpes of God, ³ and they songe the songe of Moses the seruaunt of God, & the songe of the lambe, sayinge: Gret and maruelous are thy workes: Lorde God almyghtye, iuste & true are thy wayes, thou Kyng of Saynctes.

¹⁰ And I fell at his fete, to worshippe him. And he sayde vnto me: se thou do it not. For I am thy felow seruaunt, & one of thy brethren, euen of them that haue the testimony of Iesus. Worshyppe God. For the testimony of Iesus is the sprete of prophesy.

⁴ And I sawe seates, and they sat vpon them, & iudgement was geuen vnto them: and I sawe the soules of them that were beheaded for the wytnes of Iesu, and for the worde of God: & which had not worshipped the beast, nether his ymage, nether had taken his marke vpon their forheades, or in their handes: and they lyued, and raygned with Christ a .M. yere:

¹¹ Let the heauens reioyse, and let the earth be glad: let the see make a noyse, and all that therin is. ¹² Let the felde be ioyfull and all that is in it, shall all the trees of the wodd reioyce. ¹³ before the Lorde, for he commeth: for he commeth to iudge the earth: and with righteousnesse to iudge the worlde, and the people with his trueth.

¹ Haleluiah. Prayse the euerlastynge. O prayse the Lorde of heauen, prayse hym in the heygth. ² Prayse him all ye angels of hys, prayse hym all hys hoost. ³ Prayse hym Sunne and Moone, prayse hym all ye starres and lyght. ⁴ Prayse hym all ye heauens, & ye waters that be aboue the heauens.

²³ Be glad ye heauens, whom the Lorde hath made for the Lorde hath dealte graciously wt hys people, let all that is here beneth vpon the earth, be ioyfull. Reioyse ye mountaynes and woddes, with all the trees therof: for the Lorde hath redemed Iacob, and wyll shewe hys glory vpon Israel.

¹³ Reioyse ye heauens: & synge prayses, thou earth. Talke of ioye ye hylles, for God hath conforted hys people, and wyll haue mercye vpon his that be in trouble.

¹² And so shall ye goo forth wt ioye, & be led wt peace. The mountaynes & hylles shall synge wyth you for ioye, & all the trees of the felde shall clappe theyr handes. ¹³ For thornes, there shall growe Fyrre trees, & the Myrre tre in the steade of breers. And thys shall be done to the prayse of the Lorde, and for an euerlastynge token, that shall not be taken awaye.

¹⁴ Glory to God on hye, and peace on the erth, & vnto men a good wyll.

¹⁰ Likewyse I saye vnto you, shall ther be ioye in the presence of the angels of God, ouer one synner that repenteth.

³⁷ For yet a very lytell whyle, & he that shall come wyll come, & wyll not tary.

⁸ Dearly beloued, be not ignoraunt of this one thinge, howe that one daye is with the Lorde as a thousande yeare, & a thousande yeare as one daye.

¹³ And I behelde and herde an Angell flyinge thorow the myddes of heauen, sayinge with a lowde voyce: Woo, woo, to the inhabiters of the erth, because of the voyces to come of the trompe of the thre Angels, whych were yet to blowe.

¹² One wo is past, & beholde, two wooes come yet after this.

⁶ and sware by him that lyueth for euer more, wich created heauen, & the thynges that therin are and the see, & the thynges which therin are: that there shulde be no lenger tym

¹⁰ And they that dwell vpon the erth, shall reioyce ouer them, and be glad, & shall sende gyftes one to another, for these two prophetes vexed them that dwelt on the erth.

¹⁴ The second woo is past, & beholde, the thyrde woo wyll come anone.

²⁰ Reioyce ouer her thou heauen, and ye holy Apostles and Prophetes: for God hath geuen your iudgement on her.

¹⁵ I will also put enemytie betwene the & the woman, betwene thy sede and hyr sede: The same shall treade downe thy head, and thou shalt treade vpon hys hele.

¹² The vngodly seketh councell agaynst the iust, & gnassheth vpon hym with his tethe. ¹³ The Lord shall laughe hym to scorne, for he hath sene, that his daye is commynge. ¹⁴ The vngodly haue drawen out the swerde, and haue bended their bowe, to cast downe the poore and nedye, and to slaye soch as be of a ryght conuersacion.

³ And ther appered another wonder in heauen, for beholde, a gret red dragon hauynge .vii. heddes, & ten hornes & seuen crounes vpon hys heades: ⁴ and hys tayle drue the thyrde parte of the starres and cast them to the erth. And the dragon stode before the woman whych was redy to be delyuered: for to deuoure her chylde as sone as it were borne. ⁵ And she brought forth a man childe, which shulde rule all nacyons with a rodd of yron. And her sonne was taken vp vnto God, & to his seate.

⁴ ye haue sene what I dyd vnto the Egyptians, and toke you vp vpon Eegles wynges, & haue brought you vnto my selfe:

¹¹ As an egle that stereth vp her nest and flotereth ouer her younge, & stretcheth out hir winges, so doth he take them vp, & beareth them on his shoulders. ¹² The Lorde alone was hys guyde, & there was no straunge God wt him.

⁶ Lo, then wolde I gett me awaye farre of, and remayne in the wildernes. Sela.

³¹ But vnto them that haue the Lord before theyr eyes, shall strength be encreased. Aegles wynges shall growe vpon them. When they runne they shall not fall: and when they go, they shall not be weery.

²⁵ He shall subdue thre kynges, & shall speake wordes agaynst the hyest of all: he shall destroye the sayntes of the most hyest, and thyncke, that he maye chaunge tymes and lawes. They shalbe geuen vnder hys power, vntyll a tyme, two tymes, & halfe a tyme.

⁷ Then herde I the man wyth the lynen clothes, which stode aboue vpon the waters of the floude: when he helde vp hys ryght and left hande vnto heauen, and sware by hym whych lyueth for euer that it shall tary for a tyme, two tymes and halfe a tyme: & when the power of the holy people is clene scatred abrode, then shall all these thynges be fulfylled.

⁶ And the woman fleed into wyldernes, where she had a place, prepared of God, that they shulde fede her there a .M.ii. hundred and .lx. dayes.

³ And the sprete caryed me awaye in to the wyldernes. And I sawe a woman syt vpon a rose colored beast, full of names of blasphemye, whyche had seuen heades and ten hornes.

⁴ The paynes of hell came about me, the snares of deeth ouertoke me.

⁷ Which stilleth the ragyng of the see, & the noyse of hys waues, and the madnes of the people.

³ Euer sens the world beganne hath thy seate bene prepared, thou art from euerlastynge. ⁴ The floudes are rysen (O Lord) the floudes haue lyft vp theyr noyse, the floudes lyft vp the waues.

⁷ Behold, the Lorde shall brynge myghtie & greate floudes of water vpon them: namely, the kynge of the Assirians with all his power: Which shall clyme vp vpon all his floudes, and renne ouer all theyr banckes.

² Beholde, ther commeth a vehement and sore daye from the Lorde lyke an vnmeasurable hayle and perellous tempest, euen lyke the force of myghtye and horrible waters, that violentlye beareth downe all thinges.

¹⁹ wher thorowe the name of the Lorde myght be feared, from the rysynge of the Sunne: and hys magesty, vnto the goinge downe of the same. For he shall come as a violent waterstreame, whych the wynde of the Lorde hath moued.

¹⁵ And he sayde vnto me: the waters whych thou sawest, where the whore sitteth, are people, and folke, & nacions, and tonges.

³⁵ And the children of Israel dyd accordyng to the saying of Moses: and they borowed of the Egipcyans iewelles of siluer, and iewelles of golde, and rayment. ³⁶ And the Lorde gaue the people fauoure in the syght of the Egippcians: so that they graunted soch thinges as they required. And they robbed the Egypcians.

⁶ And the rauens brought him bread & fleshe in the mornyng, & lykewise bread & flessh in the euening, & he drancke of the brooke.

⁹ And so Hazael went to mete him and toke the present with him, and of euery good thinge of Damascon, euen as moch as fourtye Cameles coulde beare, and came & presented hym selfe before hym, and sayde: Thy sonne Benhadad kynge of Siria hath sent me to the, sayinge, shall I recouer of this dysease?

²³ He gaue me thys answere. That fourth beaste shalbe the fourth kyngdome vpon earth: it shalbe more then all other kyngdomes, it shall deuoure, treade downe, and destroye all other landes. ²⁴ The ten hornes, are ten kynges, that shall aryse out of the kyngdome, after whom there shall stande vp another, which shalbe greater then the fyrst. ²⁵ He shall subdue thre kynges, & shall speake wordes agaynst the hyest of all: he shall destroye the sayntes of the most hyest, and thyncke, that he maye chaunge tymes and lawes. They shalbe geuen vnder hys power, vntyll a tyme, two tymes, & halfe a tyme. ²⁶ But the iudgement shalbe kepte, so that hys power shalbe taken from him, for he shall be destroyed, and peryssh at the last.

³⁶ The kynge shall do what hym lyst he shall exalte and magnifye him selfe agaynst all that is God. Yee, he shall speake maruelous thinges agaynst the God of all goddes wherin he shall prospere, so longe tyll the wrath be fulfylled, for the conclusyon is deuised alredy.

²⁰ Teachinge them to obserue all thinges, whatsoeuer I haue commaunded you. And lo I am wyth you allwaye, euen vntyll the ende of the worlde.

¹ And I brethren (when I came to you) came not in gloriousnes of wordes, or of wysdome, shewynge vnto you the testimony of God.

³ And herby we are sure that we knowe hym, yf we kepe hys commaundementes.

² By this we knowe, that we loue the chyldren of God, when we loue God, and kepe his commaundementes.

¹⁰ He that beleueth on the sonne of God, hath the witnes in hym selfe. He that be beleueth not God, hath made him a liar

¹¹ And they ouercame him by the bloude of the lambe, and by the worde of their testimony, & they loued not their lyues vnto the deeth. ¹² Therfore reioyce heuens, & ye that dwell in them. Woo to the inhabiters of the erth, and of the see: for the deuyll is come downe vnto you, which hath great wrath, because he knoweth that he hath but a short tyme.

¹² Here is the pacyence of saynctes Heare are they that kepe the commaundementes and the fayth of Iesu.

⁶ And I sawe the wyfe droncken wyth the bloude of saynctes, and with the bloude of the wytnesses of Iesu. And when I sawe her: I wondred with great meruayle.

¹⁴ These shall fyght with the lambe, & the lambe shall ouercome them. For he is Lorde of lordes, and kynge of kynges, and they that are on his side, are called, and chosen, and faythfull.

¹⁹ And I sawe the beast, and the kynges of the earth, and their warriers gathered together to make batayle agaynst hym that sat on the horsse, and agaynst his soudiers.

⁸ and shall go out to deceaue the people, whych are in the foure quarters of the erth, Gog & Magog, to gather them together to battayle, whose nombre is as the sonde of the see: ⁹ and they went vp in the playne of the erth: & compased the tentes of the saynctes about, & the beloued citie. And fyre came downe from God out of heauen, and deuoured them:

¹⁴ Blessed are they that do his commaundementes, that theyr power maye be in the tree of lyfe, and maye entre in thorow the gates into the cytie.
