⁷ He shall be payned & troubled, and shal not open his mouth. He shalbe led as a shepe to be slayne, yet shall he be as styll as a lambe before the shearer, and not open hys mouthe.

⁶ Geue not that whiche is holye, to dogges nether cast ye your pearles before swyne, lest they treade them vnder theyr feete, and the other tourne agayne and al to rent you.

¹⁴ And he answered hym to neuer a word: in so muche that the debitie marueyled greatly.

³² And he sayed vnto them, Go ye and tell that foxe, beholde I caste oute deuyls, & heale the people to day and to morowe, and the third daye I make an ende.

³² The tenoure of the scripture whiche he reade, was thys. He was led as a shepe to be slaine, and lyke a Lambe dombe before his sherar, so opened he not his mouth:

²³ which when he was reuyled, reuyled not agayne: when he suffered, he threatened not: but commytted the cause to him that iudgeth ryghtuously,

² And they began to accuse hym saiynge: We haue founde thys felowe peruertinge the people & forbiddinge to paye tribute to Cesar, saiynge: that he is Christ a kinge.

⁶ But as for me, I am a worme & no man: a very scorne of men and the outcaste of the people.

¹⁹ Thou knowest my reprofe, my shame & my dishonoure: myne aduersaries are all in thy sight. ²⁰ The rebuke breaketh my herte, and maketh me heuy: I loke for some to haue pytye vpon me, but ther is no man: and for some to comforte me, but I fynde none.

⁷ Moreouer thus sayth the Lorde the auenger and holye one of Israel, because of the abhorrynge and despysynge amonge the Gentyles, concernynge the seruaunte of all them that beare rule: Kynges and prynces shall se, and aryse and worshyppe, because of the Lord that he is faythfull: and because of the holye one of Israell, which hath chosen the.

³ He shalbe the most simple, and despysed of all, which yet hath good experience of sorowes & infyrmyties. We shall reken him so symple and so vyle, that we shall hyde our faces from hym.

²⁷ Then the souldiers of the debytye toke Iesus to the common hall, and gathered to hym all the companye. ²⁸ And they strypped him, and put on him a purpyll roobe, ²⁹ and platted a croune of thornes & put vpon his head, and a reed in his ryght hande, & bowed their knees before him and mocked hym, sayinge: hayle kinge of the Iewes, ³⁰ and spitted vpon hym & toke the reed and smote him on the head.

¹² He aunswered and sayde vnto them: Helias verely shal first come and restore all thinges. And also the sonne of man as it is written, shall suffer many thynges, and shalbe set at nought.

¹⁶ And the soudyers ledde hym away into the common hall, and called together the whole multytude, ¹⁷ and they clothed him wyth purple, and they platted a croune of thornes and crouned hym with al, ¹⁸ and began to salute hym: Hayle kynge of the Iewes. ¹⁹ And they smote hym on the head with a rede, and spatte vpon hym, and kneled doune & worshipped hym. ²⁰ And when they had mocked hym, they toke the purple of hym, and put hys owne clothes on him, and led him out to crucifye him.

⁶⁴ and blindfolded him, and smote his face. And axed him, saiynge arede who it is that smote the? ⁶⁵ And manye other thinges despitfully sayed they against him.

⁵ Then came Iesus forthe wearynge a croune of thornes and a purple robe. And Pylate sayde vnto them: Beholde the man.

²⁷ For of a trueth againste thy holy childe Iesus, whom thou hast anointed, both Herode and also Poncius Pilate, with the Gentyls & the people of Israel, gathered them selues together, ²⁸ for to do whatsoeuer thy hande and thy councell determined before to be done.

⁴ Come (saye they) let vs rote them out from amonge the people, that the name of Israell maye be put out of remembraunce. ⁵ For they haue caste their heades together with one consent, & are confederate agaynst the. ⁶ The tabernacles of the Edomites and Ismaelytes, the Moabytes and Hagarenes.

¹ Then came the Phariseis and Saduceis, and dyd tempte hym, desiring hym to shew them some signe from heauen.

²⁷ For of a trueth againste thy holy childe Iesus, whom thou hast anointed, both Herode and also Poncius Pilate, with the Gentyls & the people of Israel, gathered them selues together,

¹³ These haue one minde, & shal geue their power & strength vnto the beast. ¹⁴ These shal fyght wt the lamb, & the lamb shal ouercome them. For he is Lorde of Lordes, & kinge of kinges, & they that are on his syde, are called the chosen and faithful.

²¹ Then the debitye answered and sayd vnto them: whether of the twayne wyll ye that I let lose vnto you? And they sayed: Barrabas ²² Pylate sayed vnto them: what shall I do then with Iesus whiche is called Christ? They all sayed vnto hym: let hym be crucifyed. ²³ Then sayed the debitie: what euyll hath he done? And they cried the more sayinge: let hym be crucifyed.

⁴ Pylate went forth agayne, & sayd vnto them: behold I bryng hym forth to you, that ye maye knowe, that I fynde no faute in hym.

⁴ Wherfore the Prynces and Lordes soughte, to pycke oute in Danyel some quarell agaynst the kyngdom: yet coulde they fynde none occasyon nor faute vpon hym. For why? he was so faythful, that there was no blame nor dyshonestye founde in hym.

⁴ saying: I haue synned betrayinge the innocent bloud. And they sayde: what is that to vs? Se thou to that.

⁵⁴ When the Centurion and they that were with hym watchinge Iesus, sawe the earth quake and those thinges whiche happened they feared greatly sayinge: Of a surtye this was the sonne of God.

¹ And the whole multytude of them arose, & ledde him vnto Pilate. ² And they began to accuse hym saiynge: We haue founde thys felowe peruertinge the people & forbiddinge to paye tribute to Cesar, saiynge: that he is Christ a kinge.

⁴ Then said Pilate to the hye pryestes, & to the people: I fynde no faute in this man. ⁵ And they were the more fearce saiynge. He moueth the people, teachinge thorowout all Iewrye, and began at Galyle, euen to this place.

²⁸ And when they found no cause of death in hym, yet desyred they Pylate to kyll hym.

⁵ where as he (notwithstanding) shal be wounded for oure offences, & smytten for oure wickednes. For the payne of oure punyshmente shalbe sayde vpon hym, and with hys strypes shall we be healed.

²⁶ Then let he Barrabas louse vnto them, and schourged Iesus, and deliuered hym to be crucyfyed.

¹⁵ And so Pylate wyllyng to content the people, loused them Barrabas, and delyuered Iesus, when he had scourged hym, for to be crucifyed.

¹ Then Pylate toke Iesus & scourged him. ² And the souldyers wound a croune of thornes, and put it on hys heade. And they dyd on hym a purple garment ³ & sayde: hayle kyng of the Iewes: and they smote him on the face. ⁴ Pylate went forth agayne, & sayd vnto them: behold I bryng hym forth to you, that ye maye knowe, that I fynde no faute in hym.

⁴⁰ And to him they agreed, and called the Apostles, and beate them, and commaunded that they shoulde not speake in the name of Iesu, and let them go. ⁴¹ And they departed from the counsel, reioysinge that they were counted worthy, to suffer rebuke for his name.

³⁷ Then sayde Paule vnto them. They haue beaten vs openly vncondempned, for all that we are Romaynes, and haue caste vs into pryson: & now woulde they sende vs awaye priuely? Naye not so, but let them come them selues, and set vs out.

¹⁵ At that feast, the debitye was wont to delyuer to the people a prysoner, whom they would desyre.

⁶ At that feaste Pylate was wonte to delyuer at theyr pleasure a prysoner, whosoeuer they woulde desyre.

³⁹ Ye haue a custome that I shoulde deliuer you one lose at Easter. Wyll ye that I lose vnto you the kyng of the Iewes.

¹⁵ At that feast, the debitye was wont to delyuer to the people a prysoner, whom they would desyre. ¹⁶ He had then a notable prysonner called Barrabas. ¹⁷ And when they were gathered together. Pylate sayde to them whether wyl ye that I let lose vnto you Barrabas or Iesu, whiche is called Christe? ¹⁸ For he knewe well that for enuye they had delyuered hym. ¹⁹ When he was set doune to geue iudgement hys wyfe sent to hym saying: haue thou nothing to do with that iust man. For I haue suffered manye thynges thys daye in a dreame about hym. ²⁰ But the chief priestes and the elders had perswaded the people, that they shulde axe Barrabas and destroye Iesus. ²¹ Then the debitye answered and sayd vnto them: whether of the twayne wyll ye that I let lose vnto you? And they sayed: Barrabas ²² Pylate sayed vnto them: what shall I do then with Iesus whiche is called Christ? They all sayed vnto hym: let hym be crucifyed. ²³ Then sayed the debitie: what euyll hath he done? And they cried the more sayinge: let hym be crucifyed. ²⁴ When Pilate sawe that he preuayled nothyng but the more busynes was made, he toke water and washed his handes before the people sayinge I am innocent of the bloude of this iust persone, or on your perille be it. ²⁵ Then aunswered al the people & sayed, his bloude be on vs and on oure children. ²⁶ Then let he Barrabas louse vnto them, and schourged Iesus, and deliuered hym to be crucyfyed.

⁶ At that feaste Pylate was wonte to delyuer at theyr pleasure a prysoner, whosoeuer they woulde desyre. ⁷ And there was one named Barrabas, whiche laye bounde with them that made insurreccyon, and the insurreccyon committed murther. ⁸ And the people called vnto hym, & began to desyre, accordyng as he had euer done vnto them: ⁹ Pylate aunswered them, & sayd: Wil ye that I lowse vnto you the kyng of the Iewes? ¹⁰ For he knew that the hye priestes had deliuered him of enuye. ¹¹ But the hye prestes had moued the people: that he shoulde rather delyuer Barrabas vnto them. ¹² And Pylate aunswered agayne, & sayd vnto them: what wyl ye then that I do with hym, whom ye call the kynge of the Iewes? ¹³ And they cryed agayne: crucifye hym. ¹⁴ Pylate said vnto them: what euyl hath he done? And they cryed the more feruentlye: Crucifye hym. ¹⁵ And so Pylate wyllyng to content the people, loused them Barrabas, and delyuered Iesus, when he had scourged hym, for to be crucifyed.

³⁹ Ye haue a custome that I shoulde deliuer you one lose at Easter. Wyll ye that I lose vnto you the kyng of the Iewes. ⁴⁰ Then cryed they all agayne, sayinge: Not hym, but Barrabas, that Barrabas was a robber.

¹⁵ They cryed, awaye wyth hym, awaye with hym, crucifye hym. Pylate sayd to them: Shall I crucifye your kynge? The hye Priestes aunswered: we haue no king but Cesar. ¹⁶ Then delyuered he him vnto them to be crucifyed. And they toke Iesus, & led hym awaye,

¹⁴ But ye denyed the holye and iuste: and desyred a mortherer to be geuen you

³⁶ For the multitude of the people folowed after cryenge awaye with hym.

²² They gaue audience vnto thys worde, and then lyft vp theyr voyces, and sayde: awaye with suche a felowe from the earthe, it is pytye that he shoulde lyue.

⁸ And she beynge informed of her mother before sayd: geue me here Ihon Baptistes head in a platter. ⁹ And the king sorowed. Neuertheles for hys othe sake, & for theyr sakes that satte at also at the table, he commaunded it to be geuen her:

²² Pylate sayed vnto them: what shall I do then with Iesus whiche is called Christ? They all sayed vnto hym: let hym be crucifyed. ²³ Then sayed the debitie: what euyll hath he done? And they cried the more sayinge: let hym be crucifyed. ²⁴ When Pilate sawe that he preuayled nothyng but the more busynes was made, he toke water and washed his handes before the people sayinge I am innocent of the bloude of this iust persone, or on your perille be it. ²⁵ Then aunswered al the people & sayed, his bloude be on vs and on oure children.

¹³ And they cryed agayne: crucifye hym.

¹⁶ I wil therfore chasten him and let him louse.

²⁰ Pilate spake agayne to them willinge to let Iesus louse.

² Thou shalt not folowe a multitude to do euell: neyther answere in a matter of plea that thou (wouldest to folow manye) turne asyde from the trueth,

¹⁵ The Lord hateth as wel hym that iustifyeth the vngodly, as him that condemneth the innocent,

¹ Then Pylate toke Iesus & scourged him.

¹³ Now therfore beholde, the kynge whome ye haue chosen and whome ye haue desyred: se, the Lorde hath geuen you a Kynge,

⁶ At that feaste Pylate was wonte to delyuer at theyr pleasure a prysoner, whosoeuer they woulde desyre. ⁷ And there was one named Barrabas, whiche laye bounde with them that made insurreccyon, and the insurreccyon committed murther.

⁴⁰ Then cryed they all agayne, sayinge: Not hym, but Barrabas, that Barrabas was a robber.

³² And as they came out, they found a man of Cyren named Symon: him they compelled to beare his crosse. ³³ And when they came vnto the place, called Golgotha (that is to saye: a place of dead mens sculles) ³⁴ they gaue hym veneger to drynke mengled with gall. And when he had tasted therof: he woulde not drinke. ³⁵ When they had crucifyed hym: they parted his garmentes, and did cast lottes, to fulfyll that was spoken by the prophete. They deuided my garmentes amonge them, and vpon my vesture dyd cast lottes. ³⁶ And they sate and watched him there. ³⁷ And they set vp ouer his head the cause of his death written. This is Iesus the kinge of the Iewes. ³⁸ And ther were two theues crucifyed with him one on the right hande, and another on the lyfte. ³⁹ They that passed by, reuyled hym wagginge their heades ⁴⁰ & sayinge: Thou that destroyest the temple of God and buyldest it in thre dayes: saue thy selfe. If thou be the sonne of God: come doune from the crosse. ⁴¹ Lykewise also the hye priestes mockynge hym with the scrybes and elders sayde. ⁴² He saued other, him selfe he can not saue. If he be the kinge of Israel let him now come doune from the crosse, and we wyll beleue him. ⁴³ He trusted in God, let hym deliuer hym now, if he wyl haue him: for he sayde I am the sonne of God. ⁴⁴ That same also the theues which were crucified with him cast in his teth.

²¹ And they compelled one that passed by, called Simon of Ciren (which came out of the feld, and was father of Alexander and Rufus) to beare hys crosse. ²² And they broughte hym to a place named Golgotha (which is by interpretacyon, the place of dead mens sculles) ²³ and they gaue hym to drynke wyne myngled wyth myrre, but he receyued it not. ²⁴ And when they had crucifyed hym, they parted hys garmentes castynge lotes for them, what euerye man shoulde haue. ²⁵ And it was about the thyrde houre, and they crucyfyed him. ²⁶ And the tytle of hys cause was written: The kynge of the Iewes. ²⁷ And they crucified wt hym two theues, the one on the ryght hande, and the other on his lyft. ²⁸ And the scrypture was fulfylled which sayth: he was counted amonge the wycked. ²⁹ And they that wente by rayled on hym: waggynge their heades and sayinge: A wretche, that destroyest the temple, and buyldest it in thre dayes: ³⁰ saue thy selfe, and come doune from the crosse: ³¹ Lykewise also mocked him the hye pryestes amonge them selues with the scribes and sayde: he saued other men, hym selfe he can not saue. ³² Let Christe the kinge of Israel now descende from the crosse, that we may se and beleue. And they that were crucyfyed with hym, checked him also.

²³ And he sayed to them all, if anye man wyll come after me, let him denye hym selfe, & take vp his crosse dayly, and folowe me.

²⁷ And whosoeuer beare not his crosse, and come after me can not be my disciple.

¹⁶ Then delyuered he him vnto them to be crucifyed. And they toke Iesus, & led hym awaye, ¹⁷ & he bare his crosse, & went forth into a place called the place of dead mens sculles, which is named in Hebrewe Golgatha,

¹⁰ Phrysia, Pamphilia, and of Egypte, and of the parties of Libia, which is besyde Syren, and straungers of Rome, Iewes, and conuertes,

⁶ Whiche they set before the Apostles, and they praied and laide their handes on them.

⁹ Then arose certaine of the Synagoge, whyche are called Lybertines and Syrenites, and of Alexandria, and of Cilicia, and Asia, and disputed with Stephan.

¹ There were at Antioche in the congregacyon certayne Prophetes and teachers: as Barnabas and Symon called Niger, and Lucius of Cyrene, & Manahen. Herode the Tetrarkes noursfelowe. and Saule.

⁵⁵ And many women were there, beholding him a farre of, which folowed Iesus from Galile, ministring vnto him.

⁴⁰ Ther were also women a good waye of beholdyng hym: among whom was Mary Magdalen, and Marye the mother of Iames the lytle, and of Ioses, & Mary Salome:

² And also certaine women, which were healed of euyll spretes and infyrmytyes: Marye called Magdalene, out of whom went seuen deuyls,

⁵² Euerye bodye wepe and sorowed for her. And he sayd: Wepe not: for she is not dead but slepeth.

⁵⁵ The women that folowed after, which came with him from Galyle, behelde the sepulchre, and how his bodye was layed.

⁵ I am black (O ye daughters of Hierusalem) like as the tentes of the Cedarenes, and as the hanginges of Salomon:

⁷ I charge you (O ye daughters of Ierusalem) by the Roes & hyndes of the felde, that ye wake not vp my loue nor touche her, tyll she be content her selfe.

⁵ I charge you, O ye daughters of Ierusalem, by the Roes & Hyndes of the felde, that ye wake not vp my loue nor touche her, tyll she be content her selfe.

¹⁰ the pilers are of syluer, the coueryng of golde, the seate of purple, the ground pleasauntly paued for the daughters of Ierusalem.

⁸ I charge you therfore, O ye daughters of Ierusalem, if ye fynde my beloued, that ye tell hym how that I am sycke for loue.

¹⁶ Hys throte is swete, yea, he is altogether louely. Such one is my loue, O ye daughters of Ierusalem, such one is my loue.

⁴ I charge you, O ye daughters of Ierusalem. that ye walke not vp my loue, nor touch her, tyll she be content her self.

⁵³ And thou shalt eate the frute of thyne owne body: the flesh of thi sonnes and of thy daughters whych the Lorde thy God hath geuen the, in that straytenesse & seyge wherwith thine enemye shal besyege the, ⁵⁴ so that it shal greue the man that is tender and exceadynge delycate amonge you, to loke on hys brother and vpon his wyfe that lyeth in hys bosome, & on the remnaunte of his chyldren which he hath yet lefte, ⁵⁵ for feare of geuynge vnto any of them of the flesh of his children, which he eateth, because he hath noughte lefte him in that straytenes and seyge wherwyth thyne enemyes shall besyege the in all thy cyties. ⁵⁶ Yea, and the woman that is so tender & delycate among you that she dare not aduenture to sett the sole of her foote vpon the grounde for softnesse and tendernesse, shalbe greued to loke on the husbande that lyeth in her bosome and on her sonne & on her daughter: ⁵⁷ euen because of the after byrthe, that is come out from betwene her legges, & because of her chyldren which she hath borne, because she wolde eate them for nede of all thynges secretly, in the straytenes & seyge wherwyth thyne enemye shal besyege the in thy cyties.

¹² And though they bring vp any yet wyll I make them chyldelesse among men. Yea, wo shall come to them, when I departe from them. ¹³ Ephraim (as me thyncke) is planted in welthynesse, lyke as Tirus, but nowe must she bring her owne children forth to the manslayer. ¹⁴ O Lorde thou shalt geue them: what shalte thou geue them? geue them an vnfrutefull wombe and drye brestes. ¹⁵ All their wyckednesse is done at Galgal, there do I abhorre them. For the vngracyousnes of their owne inuencyons. I will driue them oute of my house. I will loue them no more, for all their princes are vnfaythfull. ¹⁶ Ephraim is hewen doune, their rote is dryed vp, so that they shal brynge no more frute: yea and thoughe they brynge forth any, yet will I slaye euen the best beloued frute of their body.

¹⁶ As for Samaria, they shalbe made waste, and why? they are disobedient vnto their god. They shal perysh with the sweard, their children shalbe slayne, and theyr wemen greate with chylde shalbe rypt vp.

¹⁹ Wo in those daies to theim that are with childe, and to them that geue sucke.

¹⁷ Woo is then to them that are with chyld, and to them that geue soucke in those dayes. ¹⁸ But praye, that your flight be not in the winter. ¹⁹ For there shalbe in those dayes such trybulacyon, as was not from the beginning of creatures whiche God created, vnto thys time, neyther shalbe.

²³ But wo be to them that be with chylde, and to them that geue sucke in those dayes: for ther shalbe great trouble in the lande, and wrath ouer all this people. ²⁴ And they shall fall on the edge of the swearde, and shalbe lead captyue into all nacyons. And Ierusalem shalbe troden vnder fote of the gentyls vntyll the tyme of the gentyls be fulfylled.

¹⁹ Men shall crepe into holes of stone, and into caues of the earthe, from the syghte of the fearfull iudge, and from the glorye of hys magesty: what tyme as he shall make hym vp to shake the earthe.

⁸ The hye places of Auen where Israel do synne, shalbe caste doune: thystles and thornes shall growe vpon their aulters. Then shall they saye to the mountaynes: couer vs, and to the hylles, fall vpon vs.

¹⁶ fal on vs, and hyde vs from the presence of hym that sitteth on the seate, and from the wrath of the lambe,

⁶ And in those dayes shal men seke death, and shal not finde it, and shall desyre to dye, and death shal flye from them.

³¹ If the righteous be recompensed vppon earth, how much more then the vngodly and the sinner?

²⁹ For lo, I begynne to plage the cyty, that my name is geuen vnto: thynke ye then, that I will leaue you vnpunyshed? Ye shal not go quyte. For why, I call for a swearde vpon al the inhabitours of the earth, sayeth the Lord of Hostes.

² Thou sonne of man: What commeth of the vyne amonge al other trees? & of the vyne stock amonge al other timbre of the groaue? ³ Do men take wode of it, to make any worcke withall? Or maye there a nayle be made of it, to hange any thyng vpon: ⁴ Beholde, it is caste in the fyre to be brente, the fyre consumeth both the endes of it, the myddest is brente to asshes. Is it mete then for any worcke? No. ⁵ Seyng then that it was mete for no worke being whole: muche lesse maye there any thing be made of it, when the fyre hath consumed & brente it. ⁶ And therfore thus sayth the Lorde God: Like as I cast the vyne into the fyre for to be brent, as other trees of the wode. Euen so wyll I do with them that dwell in Ierusalem, ⁷ & set my face against them: they shall go out from the fyre, & yet the fyre shall consume them. Then shall ye knowe, that I am the Lorde, when I set my face agaynst them,

⁴⁷ and say to the the wood toward the south: Heare the worde of the Lorde: thus sayeth the Lorde God: Beholde, I wil kindle a fire in the, that shal consume the grene trees with the drye. No man shal be able to quenche hys flamme, but al that loketh from the south to the north, shalbe brent therin: ⁴⁸ & al flesh shal se, that I the Lord haue kindled it, so that no man maye quenche it.

³ Thus sayeth the Lorde God: Beholde, I wil vpon the, & wil drawe my swerde out of the sheath, and rote out of the both the righteous & the wycked. ⁴ Seinge then that I will rote oute of the both the righteous and wicked, therfore shall my swerde go oute of his sheath againste all flesh from the North to the south:

²⁶ After these .lxii. weakes shall Christ be slaine and they shall haue no pleasure in hym. Then shall there come a people with the Prince, and destroye the cytie and the Sanctuarye: & his ende shall come as the water floude. But the desolacion shall continue till the ende of the battell.

¹² which hath also his fan in hys hande, and will purge his floure gather the wheat into his garner, & wyl burne the chaffe with vnquenciable fyre.

⁶ Yf a man byde not in me, he is cast forth as a braunche, and is wythered: and men gather it, and cast it into the fyre, and it burneth.

⁸ But that ground which beareth thornes and bryars, is reproued, and is nye vnto curssynge: whose ende is to be burned.

¹⁷ For the time is come that iudgemente must beginne at the house of God. Yf it fyrst begynne at vs, what shal the ende be of them, whiche beleue not the Gospel of God? ¹⁸ And yf the rightuous scasly be saued, where shal the vngodly and the sinner appere?

¹² These are spottes which of youre kyndnes feast together, wythoute feare, fedyng themselues. Cloudes they are wythout water, caryed aboute of wyndes, and trees wythout frute at gatherynge tyme, twyse dead & plucked vp by rotes.

¹² Therfore wyll I geue him the multytude for hys parte, and he shall deuyde the stronge spoyle because he shall geue ouer hys soule to death, & shalbe rekened amonge the transgressours, which neuertheles shall take away the sinnes of the multytude, and make intercessyon for the mysdoers.

³⁸ And ther were two theues crucifyed with him one on the right hande, and another on the lyfte.

²⁷ And they crucified wt hym two theues, the one on the ryght hande, and the other on his lyft.

³⁷ For I saye vnto you: that yet that which is written, must be perfourmed in me: euen with the wicked was he numbred. For tose thinges which are written of me, haue an ende.

¹⁸ Where they crucifyed hym, and two other with hym, on eyther syde one, and Iesus in the myddest.

² lokynge vnto Iesus the author and fynysher of our fayth, whiche for the ioye that was set before hym, abode the crosse, and despised the same, and is set doune on the ryght hande of the throne of God.

²³ let not hys body remayne al nyghte vpon the treee, but burye hym the same daye, For the curse of God is on him that is hanged. Defile not thy lande therefore, whyche the Lorde thy God geueth the to enheret.

¹⁰ Moreouer, vpon the house of Dauid & vpon the cytesins of Ierusalem wil I poure oute the spirite of grace & prayer, so that they shal loke vpon me, whom they haue pearsed: & they shal bewepe him, as men mourne for their onely begotten sonne: yea & be sory for him, as men are sorye for their fyrst childe.

¹⁹ and shall deliuer hym to the gentels, to be mocked, to be scourged, & to be crucified, and the thirde daye he shall rise agayne.

² Ye know that after two dayes shalbe easter, and the sonne of man shalbe delyuered to be crucifyed.

³³ And when they came vnto the place, called Golgotha (that is to saye: a place of dead mens sculles) ³⁴ they gaue hym veneger to drynke mengled with gall. And when he had tasted therof: he woulde not drinke.

³³ Beholde, we go vp to Hierusalem and the sonne of man shalbe delyuered into the handes of the hye priestes, and vnto the Scribes: and they shall condempne hym to death, and shall delyuer hym to the gentyls: ³⁴ and they shal mocke him, & schourge him and spyte vpon hym, and kyl hym. And the thyrd daye he shall ryse agayne.

²² And they broughte hym to a place named Golgotha (which is by interpretacyon, the place of dead mens sculles) ²³ and they gaue hym to drynke wyne myngled wyth myrre, but he receyued it not.

⁷ saiynge: that the sonne of man must be delyuered into the handes of synfull men, and be crucifyed, and the thirde daye ryse againe.

¹⁴ And as Moyses lyfte vp the serpent in the wyldernes, euen so muste the sonne of man be lyft vp,

³³ This sayde Iesus, signifyenge what death he shoulde dye. ³⁴ The people aunswered hym: We haue hearde oute of the lawe, that Christe bydeth euer: and howe sayest thou then that the sonne of man muste be lyfte vp? who is that sonne of man?

³² That the wordes of Iesus might be fulfylled, whiche he spake, signifiynge what death he shoulde dye.

¹⁷ & he bare his crosse, & went forth into a place called the place of dead mens sculles, which is named in Hebrewe Golgatha, ¹⁸ Where they crucifyed hym, and two other with hym, on eyther syde one, and Iesus in the myddest.

²³ hym haue ye taken by the handes of vnryghtuous persons after he was delyuered by the determinate counsell and for knowledge of God, and haue crucifyed and slayne:

³⁰ The God of our father raysed vp Iesus whom ye slewe and hanged on tree.

²⁹ And when they had fulfilled all that were written on hym, they toke hym doune from the tree, and put hym in a sepulchre.

¹³ But Christ hath delyuered vs from the curse of the lawe, and was made accursed for vs. For it is wrytten: cursed is euery one that hangeth on tre,

¹² Therfore Iesus to sanctyfye the people wyth hys owne bloude, suffered wythout the gate. ¹³ Let vs go forth therfore out of the tentes, and suffre rebuke with him.

²⁴ which hys owne selfe bare oure synnes in hys body on the tree, that we shoulde be delyuered from synne, and shoulde lyue in ryghtuousnes. By whose strypes ye were healed.

¹⁷ This wyse say vnto Ioseph, forgeue I pray the the trespace of thy brethren & their synne for they rewarded the euell. Nowe therfore we pray the, forgeue the trespace of the seruauntes of thy fathers God. And Ioseph wepte when they spake vnto him.

¹⁸ They haue parted my garmentes among them, and cast lottes vpon my vesture.

¹⁶ They angred Moyses in the tentes, & Aaron the saynct of the Lord. ¹⁷ So the earth opened & swalowed vp Dathan, & couered the congregatyon of Abyram. ¹⁸ The fyre was kyndled in their companie, the flamme brent vp the vngodly. ¹⁹ They made a calfe in Horeb, and worshipped the molten ymage. ²⁰ Thus they turned their glorye into the similitude of a calfe, that eateth hay. ²¹ They forgat God their Sauiour, whyche had done so greate thynges in Egypte. ²² Wonderous workes in the land of Ham and fearful thynges in the read sea. ²³ So he sayde he wuld haue destroyed them had not Moses hys chosen stand before him in that gappe: to turne awaye his wrathfull indignatyon, lest he should destroy them.

⁴⁴ But I say vnto you loue your enemies. Blesse theim that cursse you. Do good to them that hate you. Pray for them which doo you wronge and persecute you,

²⁵ At that time Iesus aunswered and said: I prayse the, O father Lorde of heauen and earth, because thou hast hid these thinges from the wyse and prudent, and hast opened theim vnto babes:

³⁵ When they had crucifyed hym: they parted his garmentes, and did cast lottes, to fulfyll that was spoken by the prophete. They deuided my garmentes amonge them, and vpon my vesture dyd cast lottes. ³⁶ And they sate and watched him there.

²⁴ And when they had crucifyed hym, they parted hys garmentes castynge lotes for them, what euerye man shoulde haue.

²⁷ But I say vnto you which heare: loue your enemyes. Do good to them which hate you. ²⁸ Blesse them that coursse you. And praye for them which wrongfully trouble you.

⁴⁷ The seruaunt that knewe hys maysters wyl, and prepared not hym selfe, neyther dyd accordynge to his will, shalbe beaten with many strypes. ⁴⁸ But he that knewe not, & yet dyd commytte thynges worthye of strypes, shalbe beaten with fewe stripes. For vnto whome muche is geuen, of him shalbe muche requyred. And to whom men muche committe, the more of hym will they axe.

⁴⁷ When the Centurion sawe what had happened, he gloryfyed God saiynge: Of a suretye this man was perfecte. ⁴⁸ And all the people that came together to the syght beholdinge the thinges which were done: smote their brestes, and returned home.

²² Yf I had not come, and spoken vnto them, they should not haue had synne: but now haue they nothynge to cloke theyr synne with all. ²³ He that hateth me, hateth my father. ²⁴ If I had not done workes among them which none other man dyd, they had not had synne. But now haue they sene, & yet haue hated both me & my father:

¹¹ Iesus aunswered: Than couldest haue no power at all agaynst me, except it were geuen the from aboue. Therfore he that delyuered me vnto the, is more in synne.

²³ Then the souldyers, when they had crucyfyed. Iesus toke hys garmentes, and made foure partes, to euery souldyour a parte, and also hys cote. The cote was withoute seame, wroughte vpon thorow out. ²⁴ And they sayde one to another. Let vs not deuyde it, but caste lottes, who shall haue it: That the scripture myght be fulfylled which sayeth. They parted my raymentes among them, and on my cote dyd they caste lottes. And the souldiours dyd such thynges in dede.

¹⁷ And nowe brethren I wote well that through ignoraunce ye dyd it, as did also your heades.

⁶⁰ And he kneled doune and cryed with a loude voice: Lord laye not thys sinne to their charge. And when he had thus spoken: he fel a slepe.

¹⁴ Blesse them whiche persecute you: blesse, but cursse not.

⁸ whiche wisdome none of the rulars of this worlde knewe. For had they knowen it, they would not haue crucified the Lorde of Glorye.

¹² and labour workinge wyth oure handes. We are reuiled, & yet we blesse. We are persecuted and suffer it.

¹³ when before I was a blasphemer and persecuter, and a tyraunte. But I obtayned mercye, because I dyd it ignorauntly thorowe vnbelefe.

²⁰ For what prayse is it, yf when ye be buffeted for your faultes, ye take it pacientlye? But and yf when ye do well, ye suffre wrong and take it pacyently, then is there thanke wt God. ²¹ for here vnto verelye were ye called: for Christe also suffered for vs, leauynge vs an ensample that we shoulde folowe his steppes, ²² whiche dyd no synne, neyther was there gyle founde in hys mouth: ²³ which when he was reuyled, reuyled not agayne: when he suffered, he threatened not: but commytted the cause to him that iudgeth ryghtuously,

⁹ not rendringe euyll for euyll, neyther rebuke for rebuke, but contrarywyse, blesse, remembryng that ye are thervnto called, euen that ye shoulde be heyres of blessinge.

¹⁹ and sayd one to another, Beholde thys dreamer cometh, ²⁰ come nowe and let vs sley hym and caste hym in to some pytt, and let vs saye that some wycked beast hath deuoured him, and let vs see what hys dreames wyl come to.

² O ye sonnes of men, howe longe wyll ye blaspheme myne honour? why haue ye suche pleasure in vanytye, and seke after lyes? Selah.

⁶ But as for me, I am a worme & no man: a very scorne of men and the outcaste of the people. ⁷ Al they that se me, laugh me to scorne: thei shute out their lippes, & shake their heades. ⁸ He trusted in God, let hym delyuer hym: let him helpe hym, if he will haue hym.

¹⁷ I might haue tolde all my bones: as for them, they stode staryng and lokyng vpon me.

¹⁵ But in myne aduersitie they reioyse, & gather them together. Yea, the very lame come together agaynste me vnwares, makynge mowes at me, and ceasse not.

¹⁹ O let them not triumphe ouer me, that are myne enemyes for naught: O let them not winke with their eyes, that hate me without a cause. ²⁰ And why? their comening is not for peace but they ymagyn false wordes agaynste the outcastes of the lande. ²¹ They gape vpon me with their mouthes, saying: there, there: we se it with our eyes. ²² This thou seist, O lorde: holde not thy tonge then, go not farre fro me, O lorde. ²³ Awake lorde, and stande vp: auenge thou my cause, my God, and my lorde, ²⁴ Iudge me, O lorde my God, accordynge to thy righteousnesse, that they triumphe not ouer me. ²⁵ O let them not saye in their hertes: there there, so wolde we haue it: O let them not saye: we haue ouercome hym.

⁷ And why? for thy sake do I suffre reprofe, shame couereth my face. ⁸ I am become a straunger vnto my brethren, and an aleaunt vnto my mothers chyldren. ⁹ For the zele of thyne house hath euen eaten me, and the rebukes of them that rebuked the, is fallen vpon me. ¹⁰ I wepte and chastened my selfe with fastyng, and that was turned to my reprofe. ¹¹ I put on a sacke cloth, and therefore they iested vpon me. ¹² They that sate in the gate, spake agaynste me, & the dronkardes made songes vpon me.

²⁶ For they persecute hym whom thou hast smytten, and besyde thy woundes they haue geuen him mo.

¹¹ sayinge: God hath forsaken hym, persecute hym, take hym, for there is none to helpe hym.

¹ Beholde now therfore, thys is my seruaunte whom I wyll kepe to my selfe: myne electe, In whom my soule shalbe pacified. I wyll geue hym my sprete, that he may shewe forth iudgement & equyte amonge the Gentyles.

¹⁴ I am laughed to scorne of al my people, they make songes vpon me all the daye longe.

¹⁷ And lo ther came a voice from heauen sayinge. This is my beloued sonne in whom is my delyte.

¹⁸ Beholde my chylde, whom I haue chosen my beloued, in whom my soule delyteth. I wyll put my sprryte on him, and he shall shew iudgement to the gentils.

³⁸ And ther were two theues crucifyed with him one on the right hande, and another on the lyfte. ³⁹ They that passed by, reuyled hym wagginge their heades ⁴⁰ & sayinge: Thou that destroyest the temple of God and buyldest it in thre dayes: saue thy selfe. If thou be the sonne of God: come doune from the crosse. ⁴¹ Lykewise also the hye priestes mockynge hym with the scrybes and elders sayde. ⁴² He saued other, him selfe he can not saue. If he be the kinge of Israel let him now come doune from the crosse, and we wyll beleue him. ⁴³ He trusted in God, let hym deliuer hym now, if he wyl haue him: for he sayde I am the sonne of God.

¹⁴ All these thynges hearde the phariseis also which were couetous, and they mocked hym.

⁶⁷ are thou verye Christe? tell vs. And he sayde vnto them: If I shall tell you, ye wyl not beleue. ⁶⁸ And if also I axe you, ye wyll not aunswere me or let me go.

⁴ to whome ye come as vnto a lyuinge stone dysalowed of men, but chosen of God and precyous:

²¹ They gaue me gall to eate, & when I was thurstye, they gaue me vinegar to dryncke.

³⁴ they gaue hym veneger to drynke mengled with gall. And when he had tasted therof: he woulde not drinke.

⁴⁸ And straight waye one of them ranne & toke a sponge and fylled it full of veneger, and put it on a rede, and gaue him to drinke.

³⁶ And one ran and fylled a sponge full of vyneger and put it on a rede, and gaue him to drinke, saying let him alone, let vs se whither Helyas wyll come and take him doune.

¹¹ And Herode with his men of warre despysed him and mocked him, and arayed him in white, and sent him again to Pilate.

²⁸ After that when Iesus perceyued that all thynges were perfourmed, that the scrypture myght be fulfylled, he sayed: I thyrst. ²⁹ There stode a vessell full of vyneger by. And they fylled a sponge with vyneger, and wounde it aboute with ysope, and put it to hys mouthe. ³⁰ Assone as Iesus had receyued of the vyneger he sayed: It is finyshed: and bowed hys head, and gaue vp the ghoste.

³⁷ And they set vp ouer his head the cause of his death written. This is Iesus the kinge of the Iewes.

²⁶ And the tytle of hys cause was written: The kynge of the Iewes.

³ And Pylate apposed him saiynge: art thou the kynge of the Iewes? He aunswered him and sayde: thou sayest it.

¹⁹ And Pylate wrote hys tytle and put it on the crosse. The wrytyng was Iesus of Nazareth, kynge of the Iewes. ²⁰ Thys tytle red manye of the Iewes. For the place where Iesus was crucifyed, was nye to the cytye. And it was wrytten in Hebrue, Greke and Latyn. ²¹ Then sayde the hye priestes of the Iewes to Pylate. Wryte not kynge of the Iewes: but that he sayde. I am kyng of the Iewes. ²² Pilate aunswered: what I haue wrytten that haue I wrytten.

⁴⁴ That same also the theues which were crucified with him cast in his teth.

³⁴ I tel you: In that nyght there shalbe two in one bed, the one shalbe receyued, & the other shal be forsaken. ³⁵ Two shalbe also a grinding together, the one shalbe receyued, and the other shalbe forsaken.

³⁵ And the people stode and behelde. And the rulers mocked him with them saiyng: he holpe other men let him helpe him selfe, if he be Christ the chosen of God.

³⁷ and sayed: if thou be that kinge of the Iewes, saue thy selfe.

¹⁷ Thou shalt not hate thy brother in thyne hart but shalt in anye wyse rebuke thy neyghboure: that thou bere not synne for hys sake.

²² And therto in the very tyme of hys tribulacion dyd kynge Ahaz trespace yet moare agaynst the Lorde.

¹ To the chaunter, of Dauid the seruaunt of the Lorde. My hert sheweth me the wickednesse of the vngodly, that there is no feare of God before hys eyes.

³ Where as thou (O Lorde) lokest only vpon faythe and truthe. Thou hast scourged them, but they toke no repentaunce: thou hast correcte them for amendement, but they refused thy correccion. They made their faces harder then a stone, and woulde not amende.

⁵ But I wil shew you whom ye shall feare. Feare hym whiche after he hath kylled, hath power to caste into hell. Yea I saye vnto you, hym feare.

¹¹ and haue no fellowshyp wyth the vnfruitfull workes of darckenes: but rather rebuke them.

⁴ Who shal not feare. O Lorde, & glorify thy name? For thou only arte holy and al Gentyls shal come and worshippe before the for thy iudgementes are made manifeste.

¹¹ & blasphemed the God of heauen for sorowe and payne of their sores, and repented not of theyr dedes.

⁴⁰ And they shall confesse theyr misdeades and the mysdeades of theyr fathers in theyr trespaces, which they haue trespaced agaynst me, & for that also that they haue walked contrary to me. ⁴¹ Therfore I also wyl walke contrarye vnto them, and wyl brynge theym into the lande of theyr enemies. And then at the least waye theyr vncircumcised hertes shalbe tamed, & then they shall make an atonement for theyr mysdeades.

¹⁹ And Iosua sayde vnto Acan: my sonne, geue glorye to the Lorde God of Israell, & geue hym prayse, & shewe me what thou hast done, and hyde it not from me. ²⁰ And Acan answered Iosua, and sayde: of a truthe I haue synned agaynst the Lorde God of Israel, and so and so haue I done.

¹² And when he was in trybulacyon he besonght the Lorde his God, & humbled hym selfe exceadynglye before the God of hys fathers,

¹³ And after all thys that is come vpon vs (because of oure euyll deades & greate trespace) thou oure God hast spared oure wyckednesse, and hast geuen vs a delyueraunce as it is come to passe thys daye.

³ & stode vp in theyr place, & red in the boke of the lawe of the Lord theyr God foure tymes on the day, and they knowleged & worshypped the Lorde theyr God foure tymes on the daye. ⁴ I prayed before the Lorde my God, and knowledged, sayinge: O Lorde, thou greate and fearfull God, thou that kepest couenaunt and mercye wyth them, whiche loue the, and do thy commaundementes.

¹⁸ I wyll aryse, and go to my father, and will say vnto hym: father I haue synned agaynst heauen and before the, ¹⁹ and am no more worthye to be called thy sonne, make me as one of thy hyred seruauntes.

⁷ Submytte your selues to God, and resiste the deuyl, and he wyll flye from you.

⁸ If we saye that we haue no sinne, we deceiue oure selues, and trueth is not in vs. ⁹ If we knowledge oure sinnes, he is faythfull and iust, to forgeue vs our sinnes, and to clense vs from al vnrightuousnes.

⁶ Yet haue I sette my kyng vpon my holy hyll of syon.

⁴ Remember vs, O Lorde, accordynge to the fauour that thou bearest vnto thy people O vyset vs wyth thy sauynge health. ⁵ That we myght se the pleasure of thy chosen, that we myght reioyse in the gladnesse of thy people, and geue thanckes with thine enherytaunce.

⁶ For vnto vs a chylde shalbe borne, and vnto vs a sonne shalbe geuen. Vpon his shoulder shall the kyngedome lye, and he shalbe called with hys owne name. The wonderous geuer of councel, the myghty God, the euerlastinge father, the prynce of peace, ⁷ he shall make no ende to encrease the kyngedome and peace, and shall sytte vpon the seate of Dauid, and in his kyngedome, to set vp the same, to stablyshe it wyth equyte and ryghteousnesse, from thence forth for euermore. This shall the gelousy of the Lorde of hostes brynge to paste.

¹⁰ Yet hath it pleased the Lorde to smyte him with infirmite, that when he had made hys soule an offerynge for synne, he myght se longe lasting sede. And this deuyce of the Lord shall prospere in hys hande. ¹¹ Wyth trauayle and laboure of hys soule, shall he obtayne great ryches. My ryghtuous seruaunte shall wyth hys wysdome iustifye & delyuer the multitude, for he shal beare away theyr synnes, ¹² Therfore wyll I geue him the multytude for hys parte, and he shall deuyde the stronge spoyle because he shall geue ouer hys soule to death, & shalbe rekened amonge the transgressours, which neuertheles shall take away the sinnes of the multytude, and make intercessyon for the mysdoers.

¹³ I sawe in a vision by nyght, and beholde, there came one in the cloudes of heauen lyke the sonne of a man, whyche went vnto the olde aged, before whome they broughte hym. ¹⁴ Then gaue he hym power and dignitie regal, that al people trybes and tunges shoulde serue him. Hys power is an euerlastynge power, whych shal neuer be put doune, and his kingdome endureth vncorrupte.

⁸ I saye vnto you whosoeuer confesseth me before men, euen hym shall the sonne of man confesse also before the Angels of God.

¹³ And the Publicane stode a farre of, and woulde not lyft vp his eyes to heauen, but smote his brest, saiynge: God be mercifull to me a synner.

²⁶ Ought not Christ to haue suffred these thinges and to enter into his glorye?

²⁸ Thomas aunswered and said vnto hym: My Lord and my God:

³¹ And they sayd: beleue on the Lord Iesus & thou shalt be saued & thy housholde.

²¹ wytnessyng both to the Iewes, and also to the Grekes, the repentaunce towarde God and fayth towarde oure Lorde Iesus.

⁹ For yf thou shalt knoweledge with thy mouthe that Iesus is the Lorde, and shalte beleue with thyne herte that God raysed hym vp from death, thou shalte be safe. ¹⁰ For the beliefe of the herte iustifyeth: and to knoweledge with the mouth, maketh a man safe. ¹¹ For the scripture sayth whosoeuer beleueth on hym, shall not be ashamed. ¹² There is no difference betwene the Iewe, & the gentyll. For one is Lorde of all whiche is ryche vnto all that call on hym. ¹³ For whosoeuer shall call on the name of the Lorde, shalbe safe. ¹⁴ But how shall they call on hym, on whom they beleued not? howe shall they beleue no hym of whom they haue not hearde? howe shall they heare withoute a preacher?

¹⁰ neither theues, neythe couetous, neither dronkardes, neither cursed speakers, neither pyllars, shall inherete the kyngedome of God. ¹¹ And suche were ye verelye, but ye are washed, ye are sanctifyed, ye are iustifyed by the name of the Lorde Iesus, and by the spyryte of our God.

¹¹ searchynge when or at what tyme of the spyryte of Christe whiche was in them, shoulde signifye, whiche spyryte testyfyed before, the passyons that shoulde come vnto Christe, and the glorye that shoulde folowe after:

⁶ Wherfore it is contained in the scrypture: beholde, I put in Syon an head corner stone, electe and precyous: and he that beleueth on hym, shall not be ashamed. ⁷ Vnto you therfor whiche beleue, he is precyous, but vnto them whiche beleue not, the stone whiche the buylders refused the same is made the head stone in the corner,

¹ Whosoeuer beleueth that Iesus is Christ, is borne of God. And euerye one that loueth hym whiche begat, loueth hym also whyche was begotten of hym.

¹¹ And thys is that recorde, howe that God hath geuen vnto vs eternal lyfe, and this lyfe is in his sonne. ¹² He that hath the sonne, hath lyfe: and he that hath not the sonne of God, hath not lyfe. ¹³ These thinges haue I wryten vnto you, that beleue on the name of the sonne of God, that ye maye know, how that ye haue eternal lyfe, and that ye may beleue on the name of the sonne of God.

²⁷ Suche a respecte hath he vnto men. Therfore let a man confesse (and saye) I offended, but he hath chastened and reformed me: I dyd vnryghteouslye, neuerthelesse he hath not recompensed me thereafter. ²⁸ Yea he hath delyuered my soule from destruccyon, and my lyfe, that it seeth the lyght. ²⁹ Lo, thus worcketh God alwaye wyth man, ³⁰ that he kepeth hys soule from peryshynge, and letteth hym enioye the lyghte of the lyuyng.

⁵ Therfore I confessed my sinne vnto the & hyd not myne vnryghtuousnes. I sayde: I wyll knowledge myne offence and accuse my selfe vnto the Lord, & so thou forgauest me the wickednesse of my synne Selah.

¹⁵ And call vpon me in the tyme of trouble, so wyll I heare the, that thou shalte thanke me.

¹⁸ Nowe go to (sayth the Lorde) we will talke together. Is it not so? Thoughe youre synnes be as reade as scarlet, shal they not be whyther then snowe? And though they were lyke purple, shall they not be lyke white wolle? ¹⁹ Is it not so? If ye be louynge and obedyent, ye shall enioye the best thynge that groweth in the lande.

¹¹ Wyth trauayle and laboure of hys soule, shall he obtayne great ryches. My ryghtuous seruaunte shall wyth hys wysdome iustifye & delyuer the multitude, for he shal beare away theyr synnes,

⁶ Seke the Lorde, whyle he maye be founde, & call vpon hym whyle he is nye. ⁷ Let the vngodly man forsake his wayes & the vnrighteous his ymaginacions, & turne agayne vnto the Lorde: so shall he be mercyfull vnto him: & to oure God, for he is redy to forgeue. ⁸ For thus saith the Lorde: my thoughtes are not youre thoughtes, & youre wayes are not my wayes, ⁹ but as farre as the heauens are hyer then the earth, so farre do my wayes exceade yours, and my thoughtes yours.

²⁴ And it shalbe, that or euer they call, I shall answere them. While they are yet but thinckinge howe to speake. I shal heare them.

¹⁸ Where is there such a God as thou? that pardonest wickednes, and forgeuest the offences of the remnaunte of thyne herytage? He kepeth not hys wrath for euer. And why? his delyte is to haue compassyon:

¹⁵ Is it not lawful for me to do as me lusteth with myne owne? Is thyne eye euel because I am good? ¹⁶ So the laste shalbe firste, and the first shalbe laste. For many are called, and few be chosen.

⁴ What man of you hauynge an hundred shepe, yf he loose one of them, doth not leaue nynty and nyne in the wildernes, and go after that which is lost vntyl he fynde hym? ⁵ And when he hath found hym, he putteth hym on hys shoulders wyth ioye.

²⁰ And he arose and wente to his father. And when he was yet a great way of, hys father sawe hym, and had compassyon and ran and fell on hys necke, & kyssed hym. ²¹ And the sonne sayed vnto him: father, I haue synned agaynst heauen in thy syghte, & am no more worthy to be called thy sonne. ²² But hys father sayed to hys seruauntes: brynge forthe that beste garmentes, & put it on hym, and put a rynge on hys hande, & showes on hys fete. ²³ And brynge hyther the fatted caulfe and kyll hym, and let vs eate and be merye: ²⁴ for thys my sonne was dead, and is alyue agayne, he was lost and is nowe founde. And they beganne to be mery.

¹⁰ For the sonne of man is come to seke, and to saue that which was loste.

³ And yf I go to prepare a place for you, I wyl come agayne, and receyue you euen vnto my self, that wher I am, there may ye be also.

²⁴ Father, I will that they which thou haste geuen me, be with me where I am, that they maye se my glory which thou hast geuen me. For thou louedest me before the makynge of the worlde.

²⁰ But the law in the meane tyme entred in, that sinne should encreace. Neuerthelater where aboundaunce of synne was, there was more plentuousnes of grace, ²¹ that as synne had reygned vnto death, euen so myght grace raygne thorow rightuousnes vnto eternall lyfe, by the helpe of Iesus Christe.

⁸ Neuerthelesse we are of good comforte, and had leuer be absente from the bodye, and to be presente with the Lorde.

³ And I knowe the same man (whether in the bodye, or oute of the bodye, I cannot tell, God knoweth) ⁴ howe that he was taken vp into paradyse, and hearde wordes not to be spoken, whiche no man can vtter.

²³ I wote not. I am constrayned of two thinges: I desire to be lowsed and to be wyth Christe, whiche thinge is best of all.

¹⁵ Thys is a true saiynge and by all meanes worthy to be receyued, that Christ Iesus came into the worlde to saue synners, of whom I am chiefe. ¹⁶ Not wythstandyng for this cause was mercye geuen vnto me that Iesus christ shoulde fyrste shewe on me all longe pacience vnto the ensample of them whiche shal in tyme to come beleue on hym vnto eternall lyfe.

²⁵ Wherfor he is able also euer to saue them that come vnto God by hym, seyng he euer lyueth, to make intercessyon for vs.

⁷ Let him that hath eares heare, what the spirite sayeth vnto the congregacions. To him that ouercommeth, wyl I geue to eate of the tree of lyfe, whyche is in the middes of the Paradyse of God.

²¹ And the Lord sayd vnto Moses: Stretch out thy hand vnto heauen, & let ther be darcknesse vpon the land of Egypt: euen that they may fele the darckenes. ²² And Moyses stretched forth hys hand vnto heauen, & ther was a thycke darckenes vpon al the land of Egipt .iij. dayes long, ²³ so that no man sawe another neither rose vp from the place wher he was by the space of .iij. dayes, but al the chyldren of Israel had light wher they dwelled.

²⁸ He sente darcknesse and it was darcke, for they were not obedyent vnto hys worde.

³¹ The sunne shalbe turned into darcknes, & the mone into bloude: before the greate & notable daye of the Lorde come.

¹⁸ Wo be vnto them that desyre the daye of the Lorde, Wherfore wold ye haue it? As for the daye of the Lorde, it shal be darcke and not cleare:

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

⁸ Waste thou not angrye, O Lorde, in the waters? was not thy wrathe in the floodes, and thy displeasure in the sea? yes when thou sattest vpon thyne horse, & when thy charettes had the vyctory. ⁹ Thou sheuedst thy bowe openly, lyke as thou haddest promised with an othe vnto the trybes. Selah. Thou diddest deuyde the waters of the earth. ¹⁰ When the mountaynes sawe the, they were afrayed, the water streame wente awaye: the depe made a noyse at the lyftyng vp of thyne hande. ¹¹ The sunne and mone remayned. styll in theyr habitacyon. Thyne arowes went out glysterynge, and thy speares as the shyne of the lyghtenyng.

⁴⁵ From the syxte houre was there darcknes ouer all the lande vnto the ninthe houre.

⁵² and graues did open, and the bodies of manye saynctes which slept arose

³³ And when the syxte houre was come, darcknes arose ouer all the earth vntyll the ninthe houre. ³⁴ And Iesus cryed with a loude voice saying: Eloi Eloi lamasabaththany, whiche is if it be interpreted, my God my God, why hast thou forsaken me?

³⁹ And when the Centurion which stode before him, sawe that he so cried and gaue vp the ghost he sayde: truly this man was the sonne of God.

¹⁴ It was the Saboth euen which falleth in the easter feast, and about the sixt houre. And he sayed vnto the Iewes. Beholde your kynge.

²⁰ The sonne shalbe turned into darckenes, and the mone into bloude, before that greate and notable day of the Lorde come.

³¹ And thou shalt make a vayle of Iacynct, of scarlet, purpul and twined bisse, and shalt make it of brodred worcke and ful of Cherubyns. ³² And hang it vpon .iiij. pillers of sethym wod couered with gold and that their knoppes be couered with golde also & stand vpon .iiij. sockettes of syluer. ³³ And thou shalt hange vp the vayle with rynges, & shalt brynge in within the vayle, the arke of witnes. And the vayle shal deuide the holy from the most holye.

¹² And then he shal take a censer ful of burnyng coles out of the alter that is before the Lord, and hys handfull of swete cens beten smal and bryng them within the vayl ¹³ & put the cens vpon the fyre before the Lord: that the cloude of the cens maye couer the mercyseate that is vpon the wytnesse, that he dye not. ¹⁴ And he shall take of the bloude of the bullock & sprynkle it wyth his fynger before the mercyseate eastwarde: euen .vij. tymes. ¹⁵ Then shall he kyll the goote that is the peoples synneoffryng, and bryng hys bloud wythin the vayle, and do with hys bloud as he dyd wyth the bloude of the bullock, and let hym sprynkle it toward the mercyseate, & before the mercyseate: ¹⁶ and reconcile the holy place from the vnclennesse of the children of Israell, and from their trespaces & all theyr synnes. And so let him do also vnto the tabernacle of wytnesse that dwelleth with them, euen among their vnclennesses.

¹⁴ And he made a fore hangynge of Iacincte coloure, of scarlet, cremosyne & bysse: & caused Cherubes to be bourdered thereon.

⁵¹ And beholde the vayle of the tempell dyd rent in twayne from the toppe to the bottome and the earth dyd quake, and the rockes did rent,

³⁸ And the vayle of the temple dyd rent in two peces from the toppe to the bottome.

¹⁴ For he is our peace, whiche had made of both one, and hath broken doune the wall that was a stop betwene vs, ¹⁵ and hath also put awaye thorowe hys fleshe the cause of hatred (that is to saye, the lawe of commaundementes contayned in the lawe written) for to make of twayne one newe man in hym selfe, so makinge peace: ¹⁶ and to reconcile both vnto God in one body thorowe his crosse, and slew hatered therby: ¹⁷ and came and preached peace to you, whiche were a farre of, and to them that were nygh. ¹⁸ For thorowe hym we both haue an open waye in, in one spyrite vnto the father.

¹⁹ whiche hope we haue an ancre of the soule both sure and stedfast. Whiche hope also entreth in, into those thynges that are wythin the vayle,

³ But wythin the second vayle was there a tabernacle, whiche is called holyeste of all ⁴ whiche had the golden senser, and the arcke of the testament ouerlayde roundabout wyth gold, wherein was the golden pot with manna, and Aarons rodde that sprong, and the tables of the testament. ⁵ Ouer the arcke were the cherubes of glorye shadowynge the seate of grace. Of whiche thynges we wyll not nowe speake perticularlye. ⁶ When these thynges were thus ordeyned the priestes wente alwayes into the tabernacle and executed the seruyce of God. ⁷ But into the seconde wente the hye priest alone, once euerye yeare, and not wythout bloude, whiche he offered for hym selfe, and for the ignoraunce of the people. ⁸ Wherewith the holy ghost this signifyinge, that the waye of holy thynges, was not yet oppened, whyle as yet the fyrst tabernacle was standynge.

¹⁹ Seynge brethren that, by the meanes of the bloude of Iesu, we may be bold to enter into that holy place, ²⁰ by the newe and lyuynge waye, whych he hath prepared for vs, thorow the vayle, that is to say hys flesh. ²¹ And seynge also that we haue an hye pryest which is ruler ouer the house of God ²² let vs draw nye wyth a true herte in a full fayth, sprynkeled in our hertes from an euyl conscyence, and washed in our bodyes wyth pure water,

⁵ In to thy handes I commende my spirite: thou hast delyuered me O Lorde thou God of truth.

⁴⁶ And aboute the ninthe houre Iesus cryed with a loude voice sayinge: Eli Eli lama sabathani. That is to saye, my God, my God, why hast thou forsaken me? ⁴⁷ Some of them that stode ther, when they hearde that, saied. This man called for Helias. ⁴⁸ And straight waye one of them ranne & toke a sponge and fylled it full of veneger, and put it on a rede, and gaue him to drinke. ⁴⁹ Other sayed, let be: let vs se whither Helias wyll come and delyuer hym. ⁵⁰ Iesus cryed agayne with a loude voyce and yeldeth vp the ghost. ⁵¹ And beholde the vayle of the tempell dyd rent in twayne from the toppe to the bottome and the earth dyd quake, and the rockes did rent, ⁵² and graues did open, and the bodies of manye saynctes which slept arose ⁵³ & came out of the graues after his resurreccion: and came into the holy citie and appered vnto manye. ⁵⁴ When the Centurion and they that were with hym watchinge Iesus, sawe the earth quake and those thinges whiche happened they feared greatly sayinge: Of a surtye this was the sonne of God. ⁵⁵ And many women were there, beholding him a farre of, which folowed Iesus from Galile, ministring vnto him. ⁵⁶ Among which was Marye Magdalena and Marye the mother of Iames & Ioses, and the mother of Zebedes children.

³⁴ And Iesus cryed with a loude voice saying: Eloi Eloi lamasabaththany, whiche is if it be interpreted, my God my God, why hast thou forsaken me? ³⁵ And some of them that stode by, when they hearde that: saide: behold he calleth for Helias. ³⁶ And one ran and fylled a sponge full of vyneger and put it on a rede, and gaue him to drinke, saying let him alone, let vs se whither Helyas wyll come and take him doune. ³⁷ But Iesus cryeth with a loude voice, and gaue vp the ghost. ³⁸ And the vayle of the temple dyd rent in two peces from the toppe to the bottome. ³⁹ And when the Centurion which stode before him, sawe that he so cried and gaue vp the ghost he sayde: truly this man was the sonne of God. ⁴⁰ Ther were also women a good waye of beholdyng hym: among whom was Mary Magdalen, and Marye the mother of Iames the lytle, and of Ioses, & Mary Salome: ⁴¹ whiche also when he was in Galile, folowed hym, and mynistred vnto hym: and manye other women, whiche came vp with hym vnto Ierusalem:

³⁰ Assone as Iesus had receyued of the vyneger he sayed: It is finyshed: and bowed hys head, and gaue vp the ghoste.

⁵⁹ And they stoned Stephan calling on & saiyng: Lord Iesu receiue my spyryte.

⁸ And when the people sawe it, they marueyled & glorifyed God whiche hath geuen suche power to men.

⁴¹ We are ryghtuously punished, for we receyued accordinge to our dedes. But this man hath done nothinge amisse.

⁷ The Iewes aunswered hym: we haue a lawe, and by our lawe he oughte to dye: because he made hym selfe the sonne of God.

¹⁹ Yea as sone as thou turnest me, I shall refourme my self: and when I vnderstande, I shall smyte vpon my thyghe. For verelye I haue committed shamefull thinges: O let my youth beare this reprofe and confusyon.

³⁷ When they hearde this, they were prycked in their hertes, and sayd vnto Peter and vnto the other Apostles. Ye men and brethren, what shall we do?

¹³ He hath put my brethren farre awaye from me, and suche as were of myne acquauntaunce, are become straungers vnto me.

¹¹ My louers and frendes stande lokynge vpon my trouble, and my kynsmen are gone afarre of.

¹⁸ My louers, and frendes hast thou put awaye fro me, and turned awaye myne acquayntaunce.

⁴ I loke vpon my right hande, & se, there is no man that will know me. I haue no place to fle vnto, no man careth for my soule.

⁶¹ And ther was Marye Magdalene and the other Mary syttynge ouer agaynste the sepulchre.

⁴⁷ And Mary Magdalen & Marye Ioses behelde where he was layed.

²⁷ And there folowed him a great companye of the people and of women, whiche women bewailed and lamented him.

²¹ Then sayde the hye priestes of the Iewes to Pylate. Wryte not kynge of the Iewes: but that he sayde. I am kyng of the Iewes. ²² Pilate aunswered: what I haue wrytten that haue I wrytten. ²³ Then the souldyers, when they had crucyfyed. Iesus toke hys garmentes, and made foure partes, to euery souldyour a parte, and also hys cote. The cote was withoute seame, wroughte vpon thorow out. ²⁴ And they sayde one to another. Let vs not deuyde it, but caste lottes, who shall haue it: That the scripture myght be fulfylled which sayeth. They parted my raymentes among them, and on my cote dyd they caste lottes. And the souldiours dyd such thynges in dede. ²⁵ There stode by the crosse of Iesus his mother, and hys mothers sister. Marye the wyfe of Cleophas, and Mary Magdalen. ²⁶ When Iesus sawe his mother, and the discyple standyng whome he loued, he sayed vnto his mother: woman beholde thy sonne. ²⁷ Then sayed he to the discyple: beholde thy mother. And from that houre the discyple toke her for hys owne.

⁵⁷ When the euen was come, there came a riche man of Aramathia named Ioseph, which same also was Iesus disciple. ⁵⁸ He wente to Pilate and begged the bodye of Iesus, Then Pilate commaunded the body to be deliuered. ⁵⁹ And Ioseph toke the body, & wrapped it in a cleane linnen cloth, ⁶⁰ & put it in his newe tombe: which he had hewen out, euen in the rocke and rolled a great stone to the dore of the sepulchre and departed. ⁶¹ And ther was Marye Magdalene and the other Mary syttynge ouer agaynste the sepulchre.

⁴² And now when night was come (because it was the euen that goeth before the Saboth) ⁴³ Ioseph of Arimathia a noble Councelloure which also loked for the kyngdome of God, came and went in boldly vnto Pylate, & begged the bodye of Iesu. ⁴⁴ And Pylate merueyled that he was already deade, and called vnto hym the Centurion, and axed of hym, whether he had bene anye whyle deade. ⁴⁵ And when he knewe the truth of the Centuryon, he gaue the body to Ioseph. ⁴⁶ And he bought a lynnen clothe, and toke him doune, and wrapped him in the lynnen clothe, and layde hym in a tombe that was hewen out of the rocke, and rolled a stone vnto the dore of the sepulchre. ⁴⁷ And Mary Magdalen & Marye Ioses behelde where he was layed.

²⁵ And beholde ther was a man in Hierusalem whose name was Symeon. And the same man was iuste and feared God, and longed for the consolacion of Israel and the holye ghost was in him.

³⁸ After that Ioseph of Arimathia (whiche was a disciple of Iesus, but secretely for feare of the Iewes) besought Pylate that he myght take doune the bodye of Iesus. And Pylate gaue him licence. ³⁹ And there came also Nicodemus whiche at the begynnyng came to Iesus by nyght, and broughte of myrre & aloes myngled together aboute an hundred pounde wayght. ⁴⁰ Then toke they the body of Iesu, & wound it in lynnen clothes with the odoures, as the maner of the Iewes is to burye. ⁴¹ And in the place where Iesus was crucifyed, was a garden, and in the garden a new sepulchre, wherein was neuer man layde. ⁴² There layde they Iesus because of the Iewes saboth euen, for the sepulchre was nye at hande.

² a deuout man, & one that feared God wt al his houshold whiche gaue much almes to the people, and prayed God alway.

²² And they sayde vnto him: Cornelius the captaine, a iuste man, and one that feareth God, and of good reporte amonge al the people of the Iewes, was warned by an holye aungel to sende for the into hys house, and to heare wordes of the.

²⁴ For he was a good man, and ful of the holy ghoste and of faith: and much people was added vnto the Lord.

²¹ When Ruben herde that, he went aboute to ryd hym out of their handes and sayd, let vs not kyl hym. ²² And Ruben sayde moreouer vnto them, shede not his bloud, but cast him in to this pytt that is in the wyldernes, and laye no handes vpon him: for he wolde haue rydd hym out of their handes and delyuered him to his father agayn.

²¹ Than they sayde one to another: we haue verely synned agaynst oure brother, in that we sawe the anguysh of hys soull when he besought vs, & wold not heare him: therfore is thys troubyll come vpon vs. ²² Ruben answered them sayinge: sayd I not vnto you that ye shulde not synne agaynst the lad? but ye wolde not heare. And nowe verely see, hys bloud is requyred.

¹⁸ After thy sauynge loke I Lord.

¹ There was a man of Ramathaim Zophim, of mount Ephraim named Elkanah, the sonne of Ieroham, the sonne of Elihu, the sonne of Thohu, the sonne of zuph an Ephratite:

¹⁰ My sonne, consent not vnto sinners,

¹² rounde with none of them, whosoeuer saye: younder people are bounde together. Neuertheles feare them not, neyther be afraide of them,

⁴³ Ioseph of Arimathia a noble Councelloure which also loked for the kyngdome of God, came and went in boldly vnto Pylate, & begged the bodye of Iesu.

³⁸ And the same came forth that same houre and praysed the Lorde and spake of him to all that loked for redempcion in Ierusalem.

⁴² And he sayd vnto Iesus: Lord remembre me when thou commeste into thy kyngdome.

⁹ His graue shalbe geuen hym with the condempned, & hys crucyfyenge with the theues. Where as he dyd neuer vyolente nor vuryght, neyther had there bene any disceytfulnesse in hys month.

⁵⁹ And Ioseph toke the body, & wrapped it in a cleane linnen cloth, ⁶⁰ & put it in his newe tombe: which he had hewen out, euen in the rocke and rolled a great stone to the dore of the sepulchre and departed.

⁴⁶ And he bought a lynnen clothe, and toke him doune, and wrapped him in the lynnen clothe, and layde hym in a tombe that was hewen out of the rocke, and rolled a stone vnto the dore of the sepulchre.

⁶² The nexte daye that foloweth good fryday the hye pryestes and phariseis gothe them selues to Pilate

⁴² And now when night was come (because it was the euen that goeth before the Saboth)

³¹ The Iewes then because it was the saboth euen, that the bodyes shoulde not remayne vpon the crosse on the saboth day (for that Saboth daye was an hye daye) besought Pylate that theyr legges myghte be broken, and that they myghte be taken doune.

⁴² There layde they Iesus because of the Iewes saboth euen, for the sepulchre was nye at hande.

⁴⁹ And all his acquantaunce, and the women that folowed him from Galyle, stode a farre of beholdinge these thinges.

⁸ Remembre the Sabbath daye that thou sanctifie it. ⁹ Sixe dayes mayst thou laboure and do all that thou hast to do: ¹⁰ but the seuenth day is the Sabbath daye of the Lord thy God, in it thou shalt do no maner worke: nether thou nor thy sonne, nor thy doughter, neither thy man seruaunte nor thy mayde seruaunt, neither thy cattel neither yet the straunger that is within thy gates.

¹⁴ Kepe my Sabboth therfore, that it be an holye thynge vnto you He that defyleth it shalbe slayne therfore. For whosoeuer worketh therein, the same soule shalbe roted oute from amonge hys people.

² Syxe dayes ye shall worke, but the seuenth day shal be vnto you the holy Sabboth of the Lordes rest: so that whosoeuer doth any worke therin, shal dye. ³ Moreouer ye shal kyndle no fyre thorowe out all your habitacions vpon the Sabboth day.

¹⁴ but the seuenth dai is the Saboth of the lorde thy God: thou shalt do no maner worke, neither thou, nor thy sonne, nor thy daughter, nor thy seruaunte nor thy mayd, nor thyne oxe nor thyne asse, nor any of thy cattel, nor the straunger that is within thy cytye: that thy seruaunte and thy mayde maye reste as well as thou.

¹⁴ And they buryed hym in his owne sepulchre whiche he had made in the citie of Dauid, and layde hym in the bedde whyche he had filled with swete odoures of dyuerse kyndes, made by the crafte of the potecaryes. And they dyd exceadynge greate coste aboute buryeng of hym.

¹³ Yea yf thou turne thy fete from the Sabboth, so that thou do not the thynge whyche pleaseth thy selfe in my holy daye: then shalte thou be called vnto the pleasaunt, holy, & gloryous Sabboth of the Lorde, where thou shalt be in honoure: so that thou do not after thyne owne ymaginacion, neyther seke thine owne wyll, nor speake thyne owne wordes. ¹⁴ Then shalt thou haue thy pleasure in the lord whyche shal carye the hye aboue the earthe, & fede the wt the heretage of Iacob thy father for the lordes owne mouthe hath so promised.

²⁴ Neuertheles, yf ye will heare me (sayet the Lord) & beare no burthen in to the cytie thorow this gate vpon the Sabboth: If ye wyll halowe the Sabboth, so that ye do no worcke therin: ²⁵ then shall there go thorowe the gates of this cytie, kynges and prynces, that shall syt vpon the stole of Dauid: They shall be caried vpon charettes, and ryde vpon horses, both they and their prynces. Yee whole Iuda and all the cytesyns of Ierusalem shall goo here thorowe, and this cytye shall euer be the more and more inhabyted.

¹ And when the Saboth was past. Mary Magdalen, and Mary Iacobi, and Salome, boughte odours, that they myghte come & anoynt hym.

¹ On the morowe after the Saboth, early in the morninge, they came vnto the toumbe and brought the odoures which they had prepared and other women with them.
