¹⁵ For thus saith the hye and excellent, euen he that dwelleth in euerlastingnesse, whose name is the holy one: I dwell hye aboue and in the sanctuarie, and with him also that is of a contrite and humble spirite do I dwell, that I may heale a troubled minde, and a contrite heart

⁹ The Isles also shall wayte for me, and specially the shippes of Tharsis that they may bryng thy sonnes from farre, and their siluer and their golde with them, vnto the name of the Lorde thy God, vnto the holy one of Israel that hath glorified thee

⁷ I wyll declare the goodnesse of the Lorde, yea and the prayse of the Lorde for all that he hath geuen vs, for the great good that he hath done for Israel, whiche he hath geuen them of his owne fauour, and according to the multitude of his louing kindnesses

⁵ Before I fashioned thee in thy mothers wombe, I dyd knowe thee: and or euer thou wast borne, I sanctified thee, and ordeyned thee to be a prophete vnto the people

⁴ Wylt thou not herafter say vnto me, O my father, thou art he that hast brought me vp, and led me from my youth

⁷ Who would not feare thee, O king of the gentiles? for thyne is the dominion: for among all the wise men of the gentiles, and in all their kingdomes, there is none that may be likened vnto thee

⁸ For thou art the comfort and helpe of Israel in the tyme of trouble: Why wilt thou be as a straunger in the lande, and as one that goeth his iourney, and cometh in only to remayne for a night

¹⁹ O Lorde my strength, my power and refuge in tyme of trouble: the gentiles shall come vnto thee from the endes of the worlde, and say, Ueryly our fathers haue cleaued vnto lyes, their idols are but vayne and vnprofitable

⁷ O blessed is the man that putteth his trust in the Lorde, and whose hope is in the Lorde hym selfe

¹³ Thou art the comfort of Israel, all they that forsake thee shalbe confounded, all they that do depart from thee shalbe written in earth: for they haue forsaken the Lorde the very conduite of the waters of lyfe

¹⁷ Be not thou terrible vnto me O Lord: for thou art he in whom I hope when I am in perill ¹⁸ Let my persecutours be confounded, but not me: let them be afrayde, and not me: Thou shalt bryng vpon them the tyme of plague, and shalt destroy them right sore

¹⁰ Ueryly I hearde the euyll reportes of many, terrour was on euery side of me: complayne vpon hym say they, and we wyll tell his tale: Yea all myne owne companions, and suche as were conuersaunt with me, lay in wayte for my halting, saying: peraduenture he wylbe deceaued, and so shall we preuayle against hym, and be auenged of hym ¹¹ But the Lorde stoode by me lyke a mightie giaunt, therefore my persecutours fell and coulde do nothing: they shalbe sore confounded, for they haue done vnwisely, they shall haue an euerlasting shame, which shall neuer be forgotten

⁷ All they that came vpon them haue deuoured them, and their enemies said, We haue made no fault agaynst them, for they haue displeased the Lorde, [yea euen the Lorde which is] the habitation of their righteousnesse, and the hope of their fathers

²¹ Whyle I consider these thinges in my heart, I get a hope agayne

²⁶ The good man with stilnesse and pacience, taryeth for the health of the Lorde

⁶ Kyll and destroy both olde men and young, maydens, children, and women: but as for all those that haue the marke vpon them, see that ye touche them not, and begyn at my sanctuarie. Then they began at the auncient men which were before the house

¹² Therefore prophecie thou, and speake vnto them, thus saith the Lorde God: Beholde, I wyll open your graues O my people, and cause you to come vp out your sepulchres, and bring you into the lande of Israel againe ¹³ So shal ye know that I am the Lord, when I open your graues O my people, & bring you out of your sepulchres

¹⁵ Nowe therfore be redy when ye heare the sound of the cornet, trumpet, harpe, shawme, psaltries, dulcimers, and al instrumentes of musicke, to fal downe and worship the image whiche I haue made: for if ye worship it not, ye shalbe cast immediatly into the mids of a hot firie fornace: for who is that God that can deliuer you out of my handes

¹⁶ O Lorde, according to all thy righteousnes, I beseche thee let thyne anger and thy wrath be turned away from thy citie of Hierusalem, thy holy hill: for because of our sinnes, and for the wickednesse of our fathers, Hierusalem and thy people are a reproche to all them that are about vs

¹ Come, let vs turne agayne to the Lorde: for he hath smitten vs, and he shall heale vs, he hath wounded vs, and he shall binde vs vp agayne ² After two dayes shall he quicken vs, in the thirde day he shall rayse vs vp, so that we shall liue in his sight

⁶ I went downe to the bottome of the mountaines, the earth with her barres was about me for euer: yet hast thou brought vp my lyfe from corruption, O Lorde my God

²⁰ Thou wilt perfourme to Iacob thy trueth, and thy mercie to Abraham, like as thou hast sworne vnto our fathers in olde time

¹⁸ But I will reioyce in the Lord, I will ioy in the God of my saluation ¹⁹ The Lord God is my strength, he wil make my feete like hindes [feete] & he wil make me to walke vpon my hye places. To the chiefe singer on Neginothai, [or vpon the instrumentes of musicke.

⁶ Then the angell of the Lorde testified vnto Iosua, and spake

¹² I wil comfort them in ye lord, that they may walke in his name, saith the Lord

³³ But rather, seke ye first the kyngdome of God, and his ryghteousnesse, and all these thynges shalbe ministred vnto you

³⁵ A good man, out of the good treasure of the heart, bryngeth foorth good thynges: And an euyll man, out of euyll treasure, bryngeth foorth euyll thynges

³ Then assembled together the chiefe priestes, and the scribes, and the elders of the people, vnto the palace of the hye prieste, which was called Caiaphas ⁴ And helde a councell, that they might take Iesus by subtiltie, and kyll hym

¹ When the mornyng was come, all the chiefe priestes, and the elders of the people, helde a councell agaynst Iesus to put hym to death

⁴² He saued other, hym selfe can he not saue. If he be the kyng of Israel, let him nowe come downe from the crosse, and we wyll beleue hym ⁴³ He trusted in God, let hym delyuer hym nowe, yf he wyll haue hym: for he sayde, I am the sonne of God

⁴⁶ And about the nynth houre, Iesus cried with a loude voyce, saying: Eli, Eli, lama sabachthani, that is to say: My God, my God, why hast thou forsaken me

⁴⁹ Other sayde, let be, let vs see whether Elias wyll come and saue hym

³³ And he taketh with hym, Peter, and Iames, and Iohn, and began to waxe abasshed, and to be in an agonie ³⁴ And sayth vnto them: My soule is heauie, euen vnto the death, tarry ye here and watche

³⁴ And at the nynth houre, Iesus cryed with a loude voyce, saying: Eloi, Eloi, lama sabachthani? which is, yf one interprete it, My God, my God, why hast thou forsaken me

³¹ For beholde, thou shalt conceaue in thy wombe, and beare a sonne, & shalt call his name Iesus ³² He shalbe great, & shalbe called ye sonne of the hyest: & the Lord God shall geue vnto him the seate of his father Dauid

⁴⁶ And Marie saide: My soule magnifieth the Lorde ⁴⁷ And my spirite reioyceth in God my sauiour

⁴⁹ Because, he that is mightie, hath done to me great thinges, & holy is his name

³⁴ And Simeon blessed them, & saide vnto Marie his mother: beholde, this chylde is set to be the fall & vprysyng agayne of many in Israel, & for a signe which is spoken agaynst

⁴⁰ And the chylde grewe, and waxed strong in spirite, and was fylled with wisdome: & the grace of God was vpon hym

²⁴ Whom God hath raised vp, and loosed the sorowes of death, because it was vnpossible, that he shoulde be holden of it

³² This Iesus hath God raysed vp, wherof we all are witnesses ³³ Then sence that he by the ryght hande of God was exalted, and hath receaued of the father the promise of the holy ghost, he hath shed foorth this, which ye nowe see, and heare ³⁴ For Dauid is not ascended into heaue, but he sayeth: The Lorde sayde to my Lorde, syt thou on my ryght

¹³ Nowe when they sawe the boldnesse of Peter and Iohn, and vnderstoode that they were vnlearned and lay men, they marueyled, and they knewe them that they had ben with Iesu

³⁶ For Dauid, after he had serued his tyme, by the wyll of God fell on slepe, and was layde vnto his fathers, and sawe corruption

¹⁷ For by it is the ryghteousnes of God opened fro fayth to fayth. As it is written: the iuste shall lyue by fayth

²¹ But nowe is the righteousnes of God declared without the lawe, beyng witnessed by the testimonie of the lawe and of the prophetes

³³ As it is written: Beholde, I put in Sion a stumblyng stone, and a rocke of offence: And whosoeuer beleueth on hym, shall not be confounded

³ For they beyng ignoraunt of Gods ryghteousnesse, and goyng about to stablyshe their owne righteousnesse, haue not ben obedient vnto the ryghteousness of God

⁸ And I say, that Iesus Christe was a minister of the circumcisio for the trueth of God, to confirme the promise [made] vnto the fathers

¹³ The God of hope, fyll you with al ioy and peace in beleuyng, that ye may be riche in hope, through the power of the holy ghost

⁹ For me thynketh, that God hath set foorth vs, whiche are the last apostles, as it were men appoynted to death. For we are made a gasyng stocke vnto the worlde, and to the angels, and to men

¹³ There hath no temptation taken you, but such as foloweth the nature of man: But God is faythfull, which shall not suffer you to be tempted aboue your strength: but shall with the temptation make away that ye maye be able to beare it

²⁵ For he must raigne tyll he haue put all his enemies vnder his feete

⁴ Which comforted vs in all our tribulation, insomuch that we are able to comfort them which are in any maner trouble, with the comfort wherwith we our selues are comforted of God ⁵ For as the afflictions of Christ are plenteous in vs: euen so is our consolation plenteous by Christe

¹⁴ Nowe thankes be vnto God, whiche alwayes geueth vs the victorie in Christe, and openeth the sauour of his knowledge by vs in euery place

⁸ We are troubled on euery syde, yet are we not without shyft. We are in pouertie, but not vtterly without somewhat ⁹ We suffer persecution, but are not forsaken therin. We are cast downe, but we perisshe not 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

⁸ By honour and dishonour, by euyll report and good report, as deceauers and yet true ⁹ As vnknowen, and yet knowen, as dying, and beholde we lyue, as chastened, and not kylled ¹⁰ As sorowyng, and yet alway merie: as poore, and yet make many riche: as hauyng nothyng, and yet possessyng all thynges

⁶ Neuerthelesse, God that comforteth the humble, comforted vs by the commyng of Titus

¹³ Therfore we are comforted, because ye are comforted: yea and exceedyngly the more ioyed we, for the ioy that Titus had, because his spirite was refreshed by you all

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 ²⁴ Of the Iewes fyue tymes receaued I fourtie [stripes] saue one ²⁵ Thryse was I beaten with roddes, once stoned, thrise I suffred shipwracke, nyght and day haue I ben in ye depth ²⁶ In iourneying often, in perils of waters, in perils of robbers, in perils of myne owne nation, in perils among the heathen, in perils in the citie, in perils in the wildernesse, in perils in the sea, in perils among false brethren ²⁷ In labour & trauayle, in watchinges often, in hunger and thirst, in fastinges often, in colde and nakednesse ²⁸ Besides the thynges which outwardlye come vnto me: my dayly encombraunce [is] the care of all the Churches ²⁹ Who is weake, and I am not weake? who is offended, and I burne not ³⁰ If I must needes glory, I wyll glory of the thynges that concerne myne infirmities ³¹ The God and father of our Lorde Iesus Christe, which is blessed for euermore, knoweth that I lye not

¹⁵ But when it pleased God, which seperated me from my mothers wombe, & called [me] by his grace

¹⁶ That he would graunt you, according to the rychesse of his glorie, to be strengthed with myght by his spirite in the inner man

⁹ (But that he ascended, what is it? but that he also descended first into the lower partes of the earth

²⁹ Let no fylthy communication procede out of your mouth, but that whiche is good to edifie withal, as oft as neede is, that it may minister grace vnto the hearers

²⁰ Geuing thankes alwayes for all thinges vnto God and the father, in ye name of our Lorde Iesus Christe

¹⁰ Finally my brethren, be strong in the Lorde, & in the power of his might

⁹ And this I pray, that your loue may abounde yet more and more in knowledge, and in all vnderstandyng

⁹ And be founde in hym, not hauyng myne owne ryghteousnesse which is of the lawe: but that which is through the fayth of Christ, the ryghteousnes which commeth of God through fayth

¹³ I can do all thynges through Christe, which strengtheneth me

⁹ For what thankes can we recompence to God agayne for you, for all the ioye wherwith we ioy for your sakes before our God

¹⁰ Yea and that thyng veryly ye do vnto all ye brethren which [are] in al Macedonia: But we beseche you brethren, that ye encrease more and more

⁶ For it is a ryghteous thing with God, to recompence tribulation to them that trouble you

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

¹ Thou therfore my sonne, be strong in the grace that is in Christe Iesus

¹⁵ And that from an infant thou hast knowen the scriptures, which are able to make thee wyse vnto saluation, thorowe fayth which is in Christe Iesus

¹⁸ And the Lorde shall delyuer me from euery euyll worke, & will preserue me vnto his heauenly kingdome: To who [be] prayse for euer and euer. Amen

³⁵ Cast not awaye therefore your confidence, which hath great recompence of rewarde

¹³ Wherfore girde vp the loynes of your mynde, be sober, and trust perfectly on the grace that is brought vnto you, by the reuelation of Iesus Christe

⁶ Wherefore it is conteyned also in the scripture: beholde, I put in Sion a stone to be laide in the chiefe corner, elect and precious, and he that beleueth on hym, shall not be confounded

⁵ Likewise ye younger, submit your selues vnto the elder: Submit your selues euery man one to another, decke your selues inwardly in lowlynes of mynde: For God resisteth the proude, and geueth grace to the humble

¹⁸ But growe in grace, and in the knowledge of our Lorde and sauiour Iesus Christe, to whom be glorie both nowe and for euer. Amen

³ And euery man that hath this hope in hym, purgeth hym selfe, euen as he also is pure

⁹ And they song a newe song, saying: Thou art worthy to take the booke and to open the seales therof: for thou wast kylled, and hast redeemed vs to God by thy blood, out of al kinrede, and tongue, and people, and nation

² And I sawe another angell ascende from the rysing of the sunne, which had the seale of the lyuyng God, and he cryed with a loude voyce to the foure angels to whom power was geuen to hurt the earth and the sea ³ Saying: Hurt not the earth, neither the sea, neither the trees, tyll we haue sealed the seruautes of our God in their foreheades

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

¹⁵ And the seuenth angell blewe, & there were made greate voyces in heauen, saying: the kyngdomes of this worlde are our Lordes, and his Christes, and he shall raigne for euermore
