¹⁰ And sayde vnto them: Syrs, I perceaue that this vyage will be with hurt and much damage, not of the ladyng and shippe only, but also of our lyues

²¹ But after long abstinence, Paul stoode foorth in the middes of them, and sayde: Syrs, ye shoulde haue harkened to me, & not to haue loosed fro Candie, neither to haue brought vnto vs this harme and losse

²⁵ Wherfore syrs be of good cheare: for I beleue God, that it shalbe euen as it was tolde me

⁶ Howbeit, they wayted whe he shoulde haue swolne, or fallen downe dead sodenlie: But after they had loked a great while, and sawe no harme come to him, they chaunged their myndes, and sayde that he was a God

²⁴ And some were perswaded in the thynges which were spoken, and some beleued not

¹⁶ For I am not ashamed of the Gospell of Christ, because it is the power of God vnto saluation to all that beleue, to the Iewe first, and also to the Greke

¹⁹ For that that may be knowen of God, is manifest among them, because God hath shewed it vnto them ²⁰ For his inuisible thinges, being vnderstanded by his workes, through the creation of the worlde, are seene, that is, both his eternall power and godhead: So that they are without excuse

²⁰ For his inuisible thinges, being vnderstanded by his workes, through the creation of the worlde, are seene, that is, both his eternall power and godhead: So that they are without excuse ²¹ Because that when they knewe God, they glorified hym not as God, neither were thankefull, but waxed full of vanities in their imaginations, and their foolishe heart was blynded

²¹ Because that when they knewe God, they glorified hym not as God, neither were thankefull, but waxed full of vanities in their imaginations, and their foolishe heart was blynded ²² When they counted them selues wyse, they became fooles

²² When they counted them selues wyse, they became fooles ²³ And turned the glorie of the immortall God, vnto an image, made not only after the similitude of a mortal man, but also of birdes, and foure footed beastes, and of crepyng beastes

²³ And turned the glorie of the immortall God, vnto an image, made not only after the similitude of a mortal man, but also of birdes, and foure footed beastes, and of crepyng beastes ²⁴ Wherefore God gaue them vp to vncleanenesse, through the lustes of their owne heartes, to defyle their owne bodies among them selues ²⁵ Whiche chaunged his trueth for a lye, and worshipped and serued the creature, more then the creator, which is to be praysed for euer. Amen

²⁸ And as they regarded not to knowe God: euen so God deliuered them vp vnto a leude mynde, that they should do those thinges which were not comely

¹⁷ If we be sonnes, then are we also heyres, the heyres of God, and ioyntheyres with Christe: So that we suffer together, that we may be also glorified together

¹² There is no difference betwene the Iewe & the Greke: for the same Lorde ouer al, is riche vnto al yt call vpon him

¹⁸ For I dare not speake of any of those thinges which Christ hath not wrought by me, to make the gentiles obedient with worde and deede ¹⁹ In myghtie signes and wonders, by the power of the spirite of God: so that from Hierusalem, & the coastes rounde about, vnto Illyricum, I haue fullye preached the Gospell of Christe

⁸ Whiche shall also strength you vnto the ende, that ye may be blamelesse in the day of our Lord Iesus Christ

²² For the Iewes require a signe, & the Grekes seke after wisedome ²³ But we preache Christe crucified, vnto the Iewes a stumblyng blocke, and vnto the Grekes foolyshnesse ²⁴ But vnto them which are called both of the Iewes and Grekes [we preache] Christe the power of God, and the wisedome of God

⁵ What is Paul? what is Apollo? Only ministers are they by whom ye beleued, euen as the Lorde gaue to euery man ⁶ I haue planted, Apollo watered: but God gaue the encrease ⁷ So then, neither is he that planteth any thyng, neither he that watreth: but God that geueth the encrease ⁸ He that planteth, & he that watreth, are one, and euery man shal receaue his rewarde accordyng to his labour ⁹ For we together are Gods labourers, ye are Gods husbandrie [ye are] Gods buyldyng

⁴ In the name of our Lorde Iesus Christe, when ye are gathered together and my spirite, with the power of the Lorde Iesus Christe

⁴ As concerning the eating of those thinges that are offered vnto idols, we are sure that an idoll is nothing in the worlde, and that there is none other God but one

⁵ Haue we not power to leade about a sister a woman as well as other Apostles, and as the brethren of the Lord, and Cephas

⁵ Haue we not power to leade about a sister a woman as well as other Apostles, and as the brethren of the Lord, and Cephas ⁶ Either only I and Barnabas haue not power this to do

¹⁸ For first of all, when ye come together in the Churche, I heare that there is dissention among you, and I partly beleue it

²³ If therfore, when all the Churche is come together in one, & all speake with tongues, there come in they that are vnlearned, or they which beleue not: wyll they not say yt ye are out of your wittes

¹⁰ But by the grace of God, I am that I am: And his grace which is in me, was not in vayne: But I laboured more aboundauntly then they all, yet not I, but the grace of God which is with me

³¹ By our reioycyng which I haue in Christe Iesu our Lorde, I dye dayly

⁸ I wyll tarie at Ephesus vntyll whytsontyde ⁹ For a great doore and effectuall is opened vnto me, and there are many aduersaries

⁹ For a great doore and effectuall is opened vnto me, and there are many aduersaries

⁹ Yea, we receaued the sentence of death in our selues, that we should not put our trust in our selues, but in God, whiche rayseth the dead ¹⁰ Who delyuered vs from so great a death, and doth deliuer: On whom we trust that yet hereafter he wyll deliuer

¹² For our reioycyng is this, the testimonie of our conscience, that in simplicitie & godly purenesse, and not in fleshely wisdome, but by the grace of God, we haue had our conuersatio in the worlde, and most of all to you wardes

¹² Furthermore, when I came to Troada, to [preache] Christes Gospell, and a doore was opened vnto me of the lorde

¹⁰ We alwayes beare about in the body the dying of the Lorde Iesus, that the lyfe of Iesus myght also appeare in our bodie ¹¹ For we which lyue, are alwayes deliuered vnto death for Iesus sake, that the lyfe also of Iesu myght appeare in our mortall flesshe ¹² So then, death worketh in vs, but life in you

⁹ As vnknowen, and yet knowen, as dying, and beholde we lyue, as chastened, and not kylled

²³ They are the ministers of Christe, (I speake as a foole) I am more: in labours more aboundant, in stripes aboue measure, in pryson more plenteouslie, in death oft

²⁵ Thryse was I beaten with roddes, once stoned, thrise I suffred shipwracke, nyght and day haue I ben in ye depth

³ But neither Titus which was with me, beyng a Greke, was compelled to be circumcised

¹¹ But whe Peter was come to Antioche, I withstoode him to the face, because he was to be blamed

²⁸ There is no Iewe, neither Greke, there is neither bonde nor free, there is neither male, nor female: For ye are all one in Christe Iesu

¹² That at that tyme ye were without Christe, beyng aliauntes from the common wealth of Israel, and straungers fro the testamentes of promise, hauyng no hope, & without God in this worlde

¹⁷ This I say therfore, and testifie in the Lorde, that ye hencefoorth walke not as other gentiles walke, in vanitie of their mynde

¹⁸ Praying alwayes in all prayer and supplication in the spirite, and watche thervnto with all instaunce and supplication, for all saintes ¹⁹ And for me, that vtteraunce may be geue vnto me, yt I may open my mouth freely, to vtter ye secretes of the Gospell ²⁰ Whereof I am messenger in bondes, that therein I may speake freely, as I ought to speake

²³ If ye continue grounded & stablisshed in the fayth, and be not moued away from the hope of the Gospell, which ye haue hearde howe it is preached to euery creature which is vnder heauen, wherof I Paul am made a minister

²⁵ Wherof I am made a minister, accordyng to the dispensation of God, which is geuen to me to youwarde, to fulfyll the worde of God

²⁸ Whom we preache, warnyng euery man, and teachyng euery man in all wisdome, to present all men perfect in Christe Iesus

¹¹ Where is neither Greke nor Iewe, circumcision nor vncircumcision, Barbarian, Sythian, bonde, free: but Christe is all, and in all

³ Praying also for vs, that God may open vnto vs the doore of vtteraunce, that we may speake ye misterie of Christ, wherfore I am also in bondes

¹⁷ And say to Archippus: take heede to the ministerie that thou hast receaued in the Lorde, that thou fulfyll it

⁹ For they them selues shewe of you, what maner of entryng in we had vnto you, and howe ye turned to God from images, to serue the lyuyng and true God

² But euen after that we had suffred before, and were shamefully entreated as ye knowe, at Philippos, we were bolde in our God, to speake vnto you the Gospell of God, in much stryuyng

¹⁵ Who both kylled the Lorde Iesus, and their owne prophetes, & haue persecuted vs: and God they please not, and are contrarie to all men ¹⁶ And hynder vs to speake to the gentiles that they myght be saued, to fulfyll their sinnes alway. For the wrath [of God] is come on them to the vtmost

² And sent Timotheus, our brother and minister of God, and felowe labourer in the Gospell of Christe, to stablishe you & to comfort you concernyng your faith ³ That no man shoulde be moued in these afflictions: For ye your selues knowe, that we are appoynted therevnto ⁴ For veryly when we were with you, we tolde you before that we shoulde suffer tribulation, euen as it came to passe, and [as] ye knowe

¹² And the Lorde encrease you, & make you abounde in loue one towarde another, and towarde all men, euen as we also towarde you ¹³ To stablyshe your heartes vnblameable, in holynesse before God and our father, in the commyng of our Lorde Iesus Christe, with all his saintes

¹³ To stablyshe your heartes vnblameable, in holynesse before God and our father, in the commyng of our Lorde Iesus Christe, with all his saintes

¹⁶ Our Lorde Iesus Christe, and God and our father, whiche hath loued vs, and hath geuen vs euerlastyng consolation, and good hope in grace ¹⁷ Comfort your heartes, and stablysshe you in all good saying and doyng

¹⁵ But yf I tary long, that thou mayest knowe howe thou oughtest to behaue thy selfe in the house of God, whiche is the Church of the lyuyng God, the pyller and grounde of trueth

¹ Rebuke not an elder, but exhort him as a father, the younger men as brethren

¹⁷ The elders that rule well are worthy of double honour, most speciallye they which labour in the worde & teachyng ¹⁸ For the scripture sayth: Thou shalt not moosel the oxe that treadeth out the corne: And, the labourer is worthy of his rewarde ¹⁹ Agaynst an elder receaue none accusation, but vnder two or three witnesses

²² Lay handes sodenly on no man, neither be partaker of other mens sinnes. Kepe thy selfe chaste

¹⁷ Charge them which are riche in this world, that they be not hie minded, nor trust in vncertayne riches: but in ye lyuyng God, which geueth vs aboundauntly all thinges to enioy

⁸ Be not thou therfore ashamed of the testimonie of our Lorde, neither of me his prisoner: but suffer thou aduersitie with the Gospell, accordyng to the power of God

¹² For the which cause I also suffer these thynges. Neuerthelesse, I am not ashamed: For I knowe whom I haue beleued, and I am perswaded that he is able to kepe that which I haue committed to hym, agaynst that day

² And the thynges that thou haste hearde of me by many witnesses, the same commit thou to faythfull men, which shalbe apt to teache other also

¹¹ It is a faythfull saying: for yf we be dead with hym, we shall also lyue with hym ¹² If we be patient, we shall also raigne with hym: If we denie hym, he also shall denie vs

¹¹ Persecutions, afflictions, which came vnto me at Antioche, at Iconium, at Lystra, which persecutions I suffred patiently: And from them all, the Lord deliuered me ¹² Yea, and all that wyll lyue godly in Christe Iesus, shall suffer persecution

² Preache the worde, be instant in season, out of season: Improue, rebuke, exhort in all long sufferyng and doctrine

⁵ But watche thou in all thynges, suffer afflictions, do the worke of an Euangelist, fulfyll thy ministerie ⁶ For I am nowe redie to be offered, & the tyme of my dissolution is at hande ⁷ I haue fought a good fyght, I haue fulfylled [my] course, I haue kept ye faith ⁸ Hencefoorth there is layde vp for me a crowne of ryghteousnesse, which the Lorde, the ryghteous iudge, shall geue me at that day: not to me only, but vnto the also yt haue loued his appearyng

⁵ For this cause left I thee in Creta, that thou shouldest refourme ye thynges that are left, and ordayne elders in euerye citie, as I had appoynted thee

⁴ God bearyng witnesse therto both with signes & wonders also, and with diuers powers and gyftes of the holy ghost, accordyng to his owne wyll

¹² Take heede brethren, lest at any tyme there be in you an euyll heart of vnbeliefe, to depart from the lyuyng God

¹² Therfore Iesus also, that he myght sanctifie ye people with his owne blood, suffered without the gate ¹³ Let vs go foorth therfore vnto hym out of the tentes, bearyng his reproche

¹⁴ Is any diseased among you? let hym call for the elders of the Churche, and let them pray for him, and annoynt him with oyle in the name of the Lorde

¹⁷ Elias was a man vnder infirmities euen as we are, and he prayed in his prayer that it myght not rayne: and it rayned not on the earth by the space of three yeres and sixe monethes

¹⁷ Elias was a man vnder infirmities euen as we are, and he prayed in his prayer that it myght not rayne: and it rayned not on the earth by the space of three yeres and sixe monethes ¹⁸ And he prayed againe, and the heauen gaue rayne, & the earth brought foorth her fruite

³ For it is sufficient for vs that we haue spent the tyme that is paste of the lyfe, after the wyll of the gentiles, walkyng in wantonnesse, lustes, in excesse of wynes, in excesse of eatyng, in excesse of drynkyng, and abominable idolatrie

¹² Dearely beloued, thinke it not straunge concerning the fierie triall, which thing is to trye you, as though some straunge thyng happened vnto you ¹³ But reioyce, in as much as ye are partakers of Christes passions: that when his glory appeareth, ye maye be mery and glad ¹⁴ Yf ye be rayled vpon for the name of Christe, happy are ye. For the spirite of glory and of God, resteth vpon you: On their part he is euyll spoken of, but on your part he is glorified ¹⁵ See that none of you be punished as a murtherer, or as a thiefe, or an euyll doer, or as a busie body in other mens matters ¹⁶ Yf any [man suffer] as a Christian man, let hym not be ashamed, but let him glorifie God on this behalfe

¹ The elders which are among you, I exhort, whiche am also an elder, & a wytnesse of the afflictions of Christe, and also a partaker of the glory that shalbe opened

¹⁰ But the God of all grace whiche hath called vs vnto his eternall glory by Christe Iesus, shal his owne selfe, after that ye haue suffred a litle affliction, make you perfite, setle, strength, and stablyshe you

¹¹ Yea, and by this meanes an entryng in shalbe ministred vnto you aboudantlye, into the euerlastyng kyngdome of our Lorde and sauiour Iesus Christe

¹ The elder to the elect Lady & her chyldren, whom I loue in the trueth: and not I only, but also all that haue knowen ye trueth

¹ The elder vnto ye beloued Gaius, whom I loue in the trueth

⁶ Which beare witnesse of thy loue before the Churche. Which brethren, yf thou bryng forwardes of their iourney after a godly sorte, thou shalt do well ⁷ Because that for his names sake they went foorth, and toke nothyng of the gentiles ⁸ We therfore ought to receaue such, that we myght be helpers to the trueth

³ Beloued, when I gaue all diligence to write vnto you of the common saluation, it was nedeful for me to write vnto you, to exhorte you, that ye shoulde earnestly contende for the fayth which was once geuen vnto the saintes

²⁰ But ye dearely beloued, edifie your selues in your most holy fayth, praying in the holy ghost ²¹ And kepe your selues in the loue of God, lokyng for the mercie of our Lord Iesus Christe, vnto eternall lyfe

⁹ I Iohn, your brother and companion in tribulation, and in the kingdome and patience of Iesus Christe, was in the Ile that is called Pathmos, for ye worde of God, and for the witnessyng of Iesus Christe

¹⁰ Feare none of those thynges, which thou shalt suffer: Beholde, the deuyll shall caste some of you into prison, to tempt you, and ye shall haue tribulation ten dayes. Be faythfull vnto the death, and I wyll geue thee a crowne of lyfe

⁷ And write vnto ye Angel of the Church of Philadelphia, this sayth he that is holy and true, which hath the key of Dauid, which openeth, and no man shutteth, and shutteth, and no man openeth ⁸ I knowe thy workes: Beholde, I haue set before thee an open doore, and no man can shut it, for thou hast a litle strength, & hast kept my sayinges: and hast not denyed my name

¹⁴ And he sayde vnto hym, Lorde thou wotest. And he sayde to me: These are they which came out of great tribulation, and haue wasshed their long robes, and made them whyte by the blood of the lambe

⁷ And whe they haue finished their testimonie, the beast that commeth out of the bottomlesse pit, shall make warre against them, and shal ouercome them, and kyll them ⁸ And their bodyes shall lye in ye streates of the great citie, which spiritually is called Sodome and Egypt, where our Lorde was crucified ⁹ And they of the people, and kinredes, and tongues, and they of the nations, shall see their bodyes three dayes and an halfe, & shall not suffer their bodyes to be put in graues ¹⁰ And they that dwell vpon the earth shal reioyce ouer them, and be glad, and shall sende gyftes one to another: for these two prophetes vexed them that dwelt on the earth ¹¹ And after three dayes and an halfe, the spirite of lyfe [commyng] from God, shall enter into them: And they shall stande vp vpon their feete, & great feare shall come vpon the which sawe them ¹² And they shall heare a great voyce from heauen, saying vnto them, come vp hyther. And they shall ascende vp to heauen in a cloude, and their enemies shall see them

⁷ Saying with a loude voyce: Feare God, and geue honour to hym, for the houre of his iudgement is come: and worshippe hym that made heauen and earth, and the sea, and fountaynes of water

¹⁰ And I fell at his feete to worship him. And he saide vnto me: See thou do it not, for I am thy felowe seruaunt, and of thy brethren, euen of them that haue the testimonie of Iesus. Worship God: For the testimonie of Iesus, is the spirite of prophesie

¹⁹ And I sawe the beast, and the kinges of the earth, and their warryers gathered together, to make battayle agaynst hym that sate on the horse, and agaynst his souldyers

⁹ And he sayde vnto me: see thou do it not, for I am thy felowe seruaunt, and the felowe seruaunt of thy brethren the prophetes, and of them which kepe the sayinges of this booke: But worshippe God
