Who so euer toucheth the carcase of soch, shall be vncleane vntill ye euen: ²⁵ and who so euer beareth the carcase of eny of these, shall wash his clothes, and shalbe vncleane vntyll the euen. ²⁶ Therfore euery beest that hath hoffe, and deuydeth it not in to two clawes, & cheweth not cud, shalbe vncleane vnto you.

Who so euer toucheth the carcases of the, shalbe vncleane vntyll euen. ²⁸ And he yt beareth their carcase, shall wash his clothes, and be vncleane vntyll the eue: For soch are vncleane vnto you. ²⁹ These shalbe vncleane vnto you also, amonge the beestes that crepe vpon earth: ye Wesell, the Mouse, the Tode, euery one with his kynde, ³⁰ the Hedgehogge, the Stellio, the Lacerte, the Snale, and the Moule, ³¹ these are vncleane vnto you amonge all that crepe. Who so euer toucheth the deed carcase of the, shalbe vncleane vntyll the euen. ³² And what so euer eny soch deed carcase falleth vpon, it shalbe vncleane, what so euer vessell of wodd it be, or rayment, or skynne, or bagge. And euery vessell that eny thinge is occupyed with all, shalbe put in the water, and is vncleane vntyll the euen, and then shal it be cleane. ³³ All maner of earthen vessell that eny soch carcase falleth in to, shal all be vncleane that therin is, & ye shal breake it. ³⁴ All meate which is eate, that eny soch water commeth in to, is vncleane: & all maner of drynke that is dronke in all maner of soch vessell, is vncleane. ³⁵ And what so euer eny soch carcase falleth vpo, it shalbe vncleane, whether it be ouen or kettell, so shal it be broke, for it is vncleane, and shalbe vncleane vnto you: ³⁶ Neuertheles the fountaynes, welles, & poundes of water are cleane. But who so euer toucheth their carcases, is vncleane. ³⁷ And though the deed carcase of eny soch fell vpon the sede that is sowne, yet is it cleane. ³⁸ But whan there is water poured vpon the sede, and afterwarde eny soch deed carcase falleth theron, then shall it be vncleane vnto you. ³⁹ Whan a beest dyeth that ye maye eate, he that toucheth the deed carcase therof, is vncleane vntyll euen. ⁴⁰ Who so eateth of eny soch carcase, shall wash his clothes, and be vncleane vntyll the euen. Likewyse he that beareth eny soch carcase, shal wash his clothes, and be vncleane vntyll the euen. ⁴¹ What so euer crepeth vpon earth, shall be an abhominacion vnto you, and shall not be eaten. ⁴² And what so euer crepeth vpon ye bely, or all that goeth vpon foure or mo fete, amoge all that crepeth vpon earth, shall ye not eate, for it shalbe an abhominacion vnto you. ⁴³ Make not youre soules abhominable, and defyle you not in them, to stayne youre selues: ⁴⁴ for I am the LORDE youre God. Therfore shal ye sanctifie youre selues, that ye maye be holy, for I am holy. And ye shal not defyle youre selues on eny maner of crepynge beest, that crepeth vpon earth: ⁴⁵ for I am the LORDE, which brought you out of the londe of Egipte, that I might be youre God: therfore shal ye be holy, for I am holy. ⁴⁶ This is the lawe ouer ye beestes and foules, & all maner of soules of crepynge beestes in the waters, and all maner of soules yt crepe vpon earth: ⁴⁷ that ye maie knowe to discerne what is vncleane & cleane, and what maner of beestes are to be eaten, and which are not to be eaten.

³¹ And youre cities wyll I make waist, and brynge youre churches to naught, and wyll not smell youre swete odoures.

³² And the angell of the LORDE sayde vnto him: Wherfore hast thou smytte thine Asse now thre tymes? Beholde, I am come out to resiste ye, for yi waye is frowarde, & cotrary vnto me.

⁶⁵ And amonge those same nacions shalt thou haue no quyetnesse, nether shal the sole of yi fote haue eny rest: for the LORDE shal geue the there a fearfull hert, and dasynge of eyes, and a troubled soule

¹⁰ As for ye prestes that bare ye Arke, they stode in the myddes of Iordane, vntyll all was perfourmed that the LORDE charged Iosua to saye vnto ye people acordinge as Moses gaue Iosua in commaundemet. The people also made haist, and wente ouer.

¹⁶ Commaunde the prestes which beare the Arke of witnesse, that they come vp out of Iordane. ¹⁷ So Iosua comaunded the prestes, & sayde: Come vp out of Iordane. ¹⁸ And whan the prestes yt bare the Arke of the couenaut of ye LORDE were come out of Iordane, and trode with the soles of their fete vpon the drye londe, ye water of Iordane came agayne in to his place, and flowed (like as afore tyme) vpon all his banckes.

¹⁹ and on ye morow they gat them vp by tymes. And whan they had worshipped before ye LORDE, they returned, and came home vnto Ramatha. And Elcana laye with Anna his wife, and the LORDE remembred her.

⁴ and thou shalt drynke of the ryuer: and I haue commaunded the rauens, that they shal fede the there.

⁶ And the raues broughte him bred and flesh in the mornynge and in the euenynge, and he dranke of the ryuer.

³⁷ And as he worshipped in ye house of Nesrach his god, his awne sonnes Adramalech and Sarazer smote him with the swerde, and fled in to ye londe of Ararat. And Asarhadon his sonne was kynge in his steade.

¹⁵ And so they caused it be declared and proclamed in all their cities, & at Ierusalem, sayenge: Go vp vnto ye mout and fetch Olyue braunches, Pynebraunches, Myrtbraunches, Palmebraunches, & braunches of thicketrees, to make bothes as it is wrytten.

¹⁴ Thynke vpon me O my God here in, & wype not out my mercy, that I haue shewed on ye house of my God, & on the offices therof.

²² And I sayde vnto the Leuites which were cleane, that they shulde come and kepe the gates, to halowe the Sabbath daye. Thynke vpo me (O my God) cocernynge this also, & spare me acordynge to thy greate mercy.

²⁹ O my God, thynke thou vpon them that are quyte of the presthode, and haue desyled the couenaunt of the presthode and of the Leuites.

³¹ and to offre the wod at tymes appoynted, and the first frutes. Thynke thou vpon me (O my God) for the best.

⁴ Who can make it cleane, that commeth of an vncleane thinge? No body.

¹³ O that thou woldest kepe me, and hyde me in the hell, vntill thy wrath were stilled: & to appoynte me a tyme, wherin thou mightest remembre me.

¹⁴ What is man, that he shulde be vncleane? what hath he (which is borne of a woman) wherby he might be knowne to be rightuous? ¹⁵ Beholde, he hath founde vnfaithfulnesse amoge his owne sanctes: yee the very heauens are vnclene in his sight. ¹⁶ How moch more then an abhominable and vyle ma, which dryncketh wickednesse like water?

¹¹ The cloudes do their laboure in geuynge moystnesse, the cloudes poure downe their rayne. ¹² He distributeth also on euery syde, acordinge as it pleaseth him to deale out his workes, that they maye do, what so euer he commaundeth the thorow the whole worlde: ¹³ whether it be to punysh eny londe, or to do good vnto them, that seke him.

³⁷ who nombreth the cloudes in wisdome? who stilleth ye vehement waters of the heaue?

⁴¹ who prouydeth meate for the rauen, whe his yonge ones crie vnto God, ad fle aboute for want of meate?

¹⁴ O tary thou ye LORDES leysure, be stronge, let thine hert be of good comforte, and wayte thou still for the LORDE.

⁶ Thy rightuousnesse stondeth like the stronge mountaynes, & thy iudgment like the greate depe.

¹ I wayted paciently for the LORDE, which enclyned himself vnto me, and herde my callinge.

⁵ Beholde, I was borne in wickednesse, and in synne hath my mother conceaued me.

³ The vngodly are frowarde, eue from their mothers wombe: as soone as they be borne, they go astraie & speake lyes.

¹⁶ Thou dyggest vp welles & brokes, thou dryest vp mightie waters. ¹⁷ The daye is thyne, & the night is thine: thou hast prepared the lightes & the Sonne.

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

⁷ But at thy rebuke they fle, at the voyce of thy thonder they are afrayed. ⁸ Then are the hilles sene alofte, & the valleys beneth in their place which thou hast appoynted for the. ⁹ Thou hast set them their boundes, which they maie not passe, that they turne not agayne to couer ye earth.

⁴ Remembre vs (o LORDE) acordinge to the fauoure that thou bearest vnto thy people: o vyset vs wt thy sauinge health.

⁸ The LORDE preserueth thy goinge out and thy comynge in, from this tyme forth for euermore.

⁵ I loke for the LORDE, my soule doth wayte for him, and in his worde is my trust. ⁶ My soule doth paciently abyde the LORDE, fro the one mornynge to the other.

¹ Lorde, remembre Dauid and all his trouble.

²³ Which remebreth vs, whe we are in trouble, for his mercy endureth for euer.

⁷ Remembre the childre of Edom (o LORDE) in the daye of Ierusalem, how they sayde: downe with it, downe with it, eue to the grounde.

¹³ That or garners maye be full and plenteous with all maner of stoare: that or shepe maye brynge forth thousandes and hundreth thousands in oure villages. ¹⁴ That oure oxen maye be stronge to laboure, that there be no myschaunce, no decaye, and no complayninge in oure stretes.

⁹ Which geueth foder vnto ye catell, & fedeth ye yonge rauens yt call vpo him.

²⁸ whan he hanged the cloudes aboue: whan he fastened the sprynges of the depe:

⁹ Who can saye: my hert is cleane, I am innocent from synne?

²³ The north wynde dryueth awaye the rayne, euen so doth an earnest sober countenauce a backbyters tonge.

²⁰ for there is not one iust vpo earth, yt doth good, & sinneth not.

¹⁵ O how fayre art thou (my loue) how fayre art thou? thou hast doues eyes.

¹¹ for lo, the wynter is now past, the rayne is awaie & gone. ¹² The floures are come vp in the felde, the twystinge tyme is come, the voyce of the turtle doue is herde in oure londe.

¹⁴ (my doue) out of the caues of the rockes, out of the holes of the wall: O let me se thy countenaunce and heare thy voyce, for swete is thy voyce and fayre is thy face.

¹⁰ O how fayre and louely are thy brestes, my sister, my spouse? Thy brestes are more pleasaunt then wyne, and the smell of thy oyntmentes passeth all spices. ¹¹ Thy lippes (o my spouse) droppe as the hony combe, yee mylck and hony is vnder thy tonge, and the smell of thy garmentes is like the smell of frankynsense.

¹⁷ Thus I waite vpon the LORDE, that hath turned his face from the house of Iacob, and I loke vnto him.

⁹ At the same tyme shal it be sayde: lo, this is oure God in who we put oure trust, and he hath healed vs. This is the LORDE that we haue wayted for: Let vs reioyse & delyte in his health.

⁸ Therfore (LORDE) we haue a respecte vnto the waye of thy iudgmentes, thy name and thy remebraunce reioyse the soule.

¹⁸ Yet stondeth the LORDE waitinge, that he maye haue mercy vpon you, and lifteth him self vp, that he maye receaue you to grace. For the LORDE God is rightuous. Happie are all thei that wate for him.

³⁸ Afterwarde it chaunsed, as he prayed in the Teple of Nesrah his god, that Adramalech and Sarazer his owne sonnes slewe him with the swearde, and fled in to the londe of Ararat. And Esarhadon his sonne reigned after him.

¹² Now go to thy coniurers, and to the multitude of thy witches, (whom thou hast bene acquanted withal from thi youth) yf they maye helpe the, or strengthe the.

¹⁵ Euen so shal they be vnto the, whom thou hast vsed & occupide from thy youth. Euery one shal shewe ye his erroneous waye, yet shall none of them defende the.

⁸ Morouer there be some wherof thou hast nether herde ner knowne, nether haue they bene opened vnto thine eares afore tyme. For I knew that thou woldest maliciousli offende, therfore haue I called the a transgressoure, euen from thy mothers wombe.

⁶ As for vs, we go all astraye (like shepe), euery one turneth his owne waye. But thorow him, the LORDE pardoneth all or synnes.

⁸ Whe I was angrie, I hid my face from the for a litle season, but thorow euerlastinge goodnesse shal I pardon the, saieth the LORDE thine avenger. ⁹ And this must be vnto me, as the water of Noe: For like as I haue sworne yt I wil not bringe the water off Noe eny more vpo the worlde: So haue I sworne, yt I wil neuer be angrie wt the, ner reproue the:

⁹ And this must be vnto me, as the water of Noe: For like as I haue sworne yt I wil not bringe the water off Noe eny more vpo the worlde: So haue I sworne, yt I wil neuer be angrie wt the, ner reproue the: ¹⁰ The mountaynes shall remoue, & the hilles shal fall downe: but my louynge kyndnesse shal not moue, and the bonde off my peace shal not fall downe fro ye, saieth ye LORDE thy merciful louer.

⁸ But what are these that fle here like the cloudes, and as the doues flienge to their wyndowes?

⁶ Beholde, it is written before my face, & shal not be forgotten, but recopensed. I shal rewarde it them in to their bosome:

²⁴ They thinke not in their hartes: O let vs feare the LORDE oure God, that geueth vs rayne early and late, when nede is: which kepeth euer still the haruest for vs yearly.

⁶ For I haue loked, and considered: but there is no ma, that speaketh a good worde: there is no man, that taketh repetaunce for his synne, that will so moch as saye: wherfore haue I done this? But euery man (as soone as he is turned backe) runneth forth still, like a wilde horse in a battayl.

⁹ Amonge all thinges lyuynge, man hath the most disceatfull and vnsercheable hert. Who shall then knowe it?

¹² But they saye: No more of this, we will folowe oure owne ymaginacions, and do euery ma acordinge to the wilfulnesse of his owne mynde.

²⁷ Beholde (saieth the LORDE) the dayes come, that I will sowe the house of Israel and the house of Iuda, with men and with catell. ²⁸ Yee it shall come therto, that like as I haue gone aboute in tymes past to rote them out, to scatre them, to breake them downe, to destroye them and chaste them: Euen so will I also go diligently aboute, to buylde them vp agayne, and to plante them, saieth the LORDE.

³⁵ Thus saieth the LORDE which gaue the sonne to be a light for the daye, and the Moone and starres to shyne in the night: which moueth the see, so that the floudes therof waxe fearce: his name is the LORDE of hoostes.

²⁰ Thus saieth the LORDE: Maye the couenaunt which I haue made with daye and night, be broken, that there shulde not be daye and night in due season? ²¹ Then maye my couenaunt also be broken, which I made with Dauid my seruaunt, and so he not to haue a sonne to reigne in his Trone. So shall also the prestes and Leuites neuer fayle, but serue me. ²² For like as the starres of heauen maye not be nombred, nether the sonde of the see measured: so will I multiplie the sede of Dauid my seruaunt, and of the Leuites my ministers. ²³ Morouer, the worde of the LORDE came to Ieremy, saienge: ²⁴ Cosidrest thou not what this people speaketh? Two kynreddes (saye they) had the LORDE chosen, & those same two hath he cast awaye. For so farre is my people come, yt they haue no hope to come together eny more, and to be one people agayne. ²⁵ Therfore thus saieth the LORDE: Yf I haue made no couenaunt with daye & night, and geue no statute vnto heauen and earth: ²⁶ then will I also cast awaye the sede of Dauid my seruaunt: so that I wil take no prynce out of his sede, to rule the posterite of Abraha, Isaac and Iacob. But yet I will turne agayne their captiuyte, and be mercifull vnto them.

²⁷ Set vp a toke in the londe: blowe the trompettes amonge the Heithen, prouoke the nacions agaynst her, call the kyngdomes, of Ararat, Menni & Ascanes agaynst her: nombre out Taphsar agaynst her, bringe as greate a sorte of horses agaynst her, as yf they were greshoppers.

¹⁶ And soch as escape and fle from amonge them, shal be vpon the hilles, like as the doues in the felde: euery one shalbe afrayed, because off his owne wickednesse.

⁴¹ I wil accepte youre swete sauoure, when I bringe you from the nacions, and gather you together out of the londes, wherin ye be scatred: that I maye be halowed in you before the Heithen,

¹⁰ Now when Daniel vnderstode that the wrytynge was made, he wente in to his house: and the wyndowes of his hall towarde Ierusalem stode open. There kneled he downe vpon his knees, thre tymes a daye: there he made his peticion, and praysed his God, like as his maner was to do afore tyme.

²⁵ Vnderstode this then, and marcke it well: that from the tyme it shalbe concluded, to go and repayre Ierusalem agayne, vnto Christ (or the anoynted) prynce: there shalbe seuen wekes. Then shall the stretes & walles be buylded agayne lxij. wekes, but with harde troublous tyme. ²⁶ After these lxij. wekes, shal Christ be slayne, & they shal haue no pleasure in him. Then shal there come a people with the prynce, and destroye the cite and the sanctuary: and his ende shal come as the water floude. But the desolacion shall continue till the ende of the batell.

²¹ I hate and abhorre youre holy dayes, ad where as ye cense me when ye come together I will not accepte it. ²² And though ye offre me brentofferinges and meatofferinges, yet haue I no pleasure therin: As for youre fat thankofferynges, I wil not loke vpon them.

⁷ The LORDE hath sworne agaynst the pryde of Iacob: these workes of theirs will I neuer forget.

³ Thou haddest cast me downe depe in ye middest off the see, and the floude compased me aboute: yee all thy wawes and rowles of water went ouer me,

¹¹ And shulde not I then haue compassion vpon Niniue that greate cite, wherin there are aboue an C. and xx. thousande personnes, yt knowe not their right hode fro the lefte, besydes moch catell?

³ for ye visio is yet farre of for a tyme, but at ye last it shal come to passe, & not fayle. And though he tary, yet wait thou for him, for in very dede he wil come, and not be slacke.

² O Lorde, when I herde speake of ye, I was afrayed. The worke yt thou hast taken in honde, shalt thou perfourme in his tyme, O LORDE: and when thy tyme commeth, thou shalt declare it. In thy very wrath thou thinkest vpon mercy.

¹² I spake morouer, & sayde vnto him: what be these ij. olyue braunches which (thorow ye two golden pipes) emptie them selues into the golde? ¹³ He answered me, & sayde: knowest thou not, what these be? And I sayde: No, my lorde. ¹⁴ Then sayde he: These are the two olyue braunches, that stonde before the ruler of the whole earth.

¹¹ Thou also thorow the bloude of thy couenaunt: shalt let thy presoners out of the pytte, wherin is no water.

⁹ For I myselfe also am a ma subiect to ye auctorite of another, & haue sowdiers vnder me. Yet wha I saye to one: go, he goeth, and to another: come, he commeth: & to my seruaunt: do this, he doeth it.

²⁶ And he sayde vnto them: why are ye fearfull, o ye of lytell faithe? Then he arose, and rebuked the wyndes and the see, & there folowed a greate calme. ²⁷ And the men marueyled and sayde: what ma is this, that both wyndes and see obey hym?

¹⁶ Beholde, I sende you forth as shepe amoge wolues. Be ye therfore wyse as serpentes, and innocent as doues.

²⁸ Come vnto me all ye that laboure and are laden, and I wil ease you.

¹⁹ For out of ye hert come euell thoughtes murthur, breakynge of wedlocke, whordome theft, false witnesse, blasphemy.

⁶ That which is borne of flesh, is flesh: & that which is borne of the sprete, is sprete.

³³ These thinges haue I spoken vnto you, that in me ye might haue peace. In ye worlde haue ye trouble, but be of good comforte, I haue ouercome the worlde.

²⁷ Wha the keper of the preson waked out of slepe, and sawe the preson dores open, he drue out his swerde, and wolde haue kylled him selfe: for he thoughte ye presoners had bene fled. ²⁸ But Paul cryed loude, and sayde: Do thy self no harme, for we are all here.

³⁷ But Paul sayde vnto them: They haue beaten vs openly vncondempned (where as we are yet Romaynes) and haue cast vs in preson, and shulde they now thrust vs out preuely? Not so, but let them come them selues, and brynge vs out. ³⁸ The mynisters tolde these wordes vnto the officers. And they feared, whan they herde that they were Romaynes, ³⁹ and came and besoughte them, and prayed the to departe out of the cite.

²¹ in as moch as they knewe, that there is a God, and haue not praysed him as God ner thanked him, but became vayne in their ymaginacions, and their foolish hert was blynded.

²³ For they are all synners, and wate the prayse that God shulde haue of the,

⁷ For to be fleshly mynded is enemyte agaynst. God, syth it is not subdued vnto ye lawe of God, for it can not also. ⁸ As for the that are fleshlye, they can not please God.

²⁰ because the creature is subdued vnto vanyte agaynst hir will, but for his wyll that hath subdued her vpon hope. ²¹ For the creature also shal be fre from the bondage of corrupcion, vnto the glorious libertye of the childre of God. ²² For we knowe, that euery creature groneth, and trauayleth with vs in payne vnto the same tyme.

²⁵ But yf we hope for that which we se not, the do we thorow pacience abyde for it.

¹⁵ But how shal they preach, excepte they be sent? As it is wrytte: How beutyfull are the fete of the yt preach peace, yt brynge good tidinges?

¹ I beseke you brethre by the mercyfulnesse of God, that ye geue ouer youre bodies for a sacrifice, yt is quycke holy, and acceptable vnto God, which is yor reasonable seruynge off God.

¹⁵ For we are vnto God the good fauoure of Christ, both amonge the yt are saued, & amonge them yt perishe.

¹ And quyckened you also, whan ye were deed thorow trespaces and synnes, ² in the which in tyme past ye walked, acordinge to the course off this worlde, and after the prynce that ruleth in the ayre namely, after ye sprete, which now worketh in the children of vnbeleue, ³ amonge whom we also had oure conuersacion in tyme past in the lustes of oure flesh, and dyd the wyll of the flesh and of the mynde, and were naturally the children of wrath, euen as well as other.

² and walke in loue, euen as Christ loued vs, and gaue him selfe for vs an offerynge and sacrifice of a swete sauoure vnto God.

¹⁸ For I haue all, and haue plentye. I was euen fylled wha I receaued of Epaphroditus, that which came from you, an odoure of swetenes, a sacrifice accepted & pleasaunt vnto God.

¹⁰ We haue an altare, wherof they haue no power to eate, which serue in the Tabernacle.

¹⁵ Let vs therfore by him offre allwayes vnto God the sacrifice of prayse: that is to saye, the frute of those lippes which confesse his name. ¹⁶ To do good and to destribute forget not, for wt soch sacrifices God is pleased.

¹⁴ But euery ma is tepted, drawne awaye, & entysed of his awne cocupiscece. ¹⁵ The whe lust hath conceaued, she bringeth forth synne, & synne when it is fynished, bringeth forth deeth.

¹ From whence commeth warre and fightynge amonge you: come they not here hence? euen of yor volupteousnesses that rayne in youre mebres? ² Ye lust, and haue not. Ye envie and haue indignacion, and can not obtayne. Ye fight & warre, and haue not, because ye axe not.

⁷ Be pacient therfore brethren, vnto the comynge of the LORDE. Beholde, the hussbade man wayteth for the precious frute of ye earth, and hath longe pacience there vpon, vntill he receaue the erly and the latter rayne.

⁷ Be pacient therfore brethren, vnto the comynge of the LORDE. Beholde, the hussbade man wayteth for the precious frute of ye earth, and hath longe pacience there vpon, vntill he receaue the erly and the latter rayne. ⁸ Be ye also pacient therfore, and settle youre hertes, for the commynge of the LORDE draweth nye.

⁵ And ye also as lyuynge stones are made a spirituall house, and an holy presthode, to offre vp spirituall sacrifices, acceptable vnto God by Iesus Christ.

⁹ But ye are that chosen generacion, that kyngly presthode, that holy nacion, that peculier people, yt ye shulde shewe the vertues of him, which hath called you out of darknesse in to his maruelous lighte:

⁶ yet was the worlde at that tyme destroyed by the same with the floude. ⁷ But the heauens which are yet, and ye earth, are kepte in stoare by his worde, to be reserued vnto fyre agaynst the daye of iudgment and damnacion of vngodly men.

¹⁹ We knowe that we are of God, & the worlde is set alltogether on wickednes.

¹⁹ And the greate cite was deuyded in to thre parties. And the cities of nacions fell. And greate Babilon came in remembraunce before God, to geue vnto hyr the cuppe of wyne of the fearcenes of his wrath.

⁵ For her synnes are gone vp to heauen, and the LORDE hath remembred her wyckednes.
