Matthew(i)
9 For this cause we also, sence the daye we heard of it, haue not ceased prayeng for you, and desiring that ye myght be fulfilled with the knowledge of his will, in all wysdome, and spiritual vnderstandinge,
10 that ye mighte walke worthy of the Lorde in all thinges, that please him beyng frutefull in all good workes, and encreasing in the knowledge of God
11 strengthed wyth all myghte thorowe his glorious power, vnto al pacience & longe suffering with ioyfulnes,
12 geuing thankes vnto the father, which hath made vs mete to be partakers of the inheritaunce of sainctes in lyght.
13 Which hath deliuered vs from the power of darcknes and hath translated vs into the kyngdome of his deare sonne,
14 in whom we haue redempcion thorowe his bloude, that is to saye: the forgeuenes of synnes,
15 whyche is the ymage of the inuisible God, fyrste begotten of creatures.
16 For by hym were all thynges created, thinges that are in heauen, and thinges that are in earth: thinges visible and thinges inuisible, whether they be maiestye or Lordeshyp, eyther rule or power. Al thynges are created by hym and in hym,
17 and he is before all thinges, and in hym all thinges haue theyr beynge.
18 And he is the head of the body, that is to wyt of the congregation: he is the beginning and fyrst begotten of the dead, that in all thinges he might haue the preeminence.
