²² For I delite in the lawe of God after the inwarde man:

⁹ Howbeit ye are not fleshly, but goostly, yf so be that the sprete of God dwell in you. But who so hath not the sprete of Christ, the same is not his. ¹⁰ Neuertheles yf Christ be in you, then is the body deed because of synne. But the sprete is life for righteousnes sake. ¹¹ Wherfore yf the sprete of him, that raysed vp Iesus from the deed, dwell in you, then shal euen he also that raysed vp Christ from the deed, quycke youre mortal bodies, because yt his sprete dwelleth in you.

¹⁵ are Gods childre: for ye haue not receaued the sprete of bondage to feare eny more, but ye haue receaued ye sprete of adopcion, wherby we crye: Abba, deare father. ¹⁶ The same sprete certifieth oure sprete, that we are the childre of God. ¹⁷ Yf we be childre, then are we heyres also, namely the heyres of God, and heyres annexed with Christ, yf so be that we suffer together, that we maye be also glorified together.

²⁸ But sure we are, that all thinges serue for the best vnto them that loue of God, which are called of purpose. ²⁹ For those whom he knewe before, hath he ordeyned also before, yt they shulde be like fashioned vnto ye shappe of his sonne, yt he mighte be the first begotte amoge many brethre. ³⁰ As for those whom he hath ordeyned before, them hath he called also: and whom he hath called, the hath he also made righteous: and whom he hath made righteous, them hath he glorified also.

³⁸ For sure I am, that nether death ner life, nether angell, ner rule, nether power, nether thinges present, nether thinges to come,

¹¹ or euer the childre were borne, & had done nether good ner bad (that the purpose of God might stode acordinge to the eleccion, not by the deseruynge of workes, but by the grace of the caller)

²³ that he mighte declare the riches off his glorye on ye vessels of mercy, which he hath prepared vnto glorye,

³ For they knowe not the righteousnes which auayleth before God, and go aboute to manteyne their awne righteousnes: and thus they are not subdued vnto the righteousnes, that is off value before God.

¹¹ For the scripture sayeth: Who so euer beleueth on him, shal not be confounded. ¹² Here is no difference, nether of the Iewe ner of the Gentyle. For one is LORDE of all, which is riche vnto all yt call vpo him.

¹³ I speake vnto you Heythen: for in as moch as I am ye Apostle of the Heythen, I wil prayse myne office,

²⁵ I wolde not that this secrete shulde be hyd from you brethre (lest ye shulde be wyse in youre awne cosaytes) that partly blyndnesse is happened vnto Israel, so longe tyll the fulnesse of the Heythen be come in,

³³ O the depenesse of the riches, both of the wyssdome and knowlege of God? How incomprehensible are his iudgmentes, and his wayes vnsearcheable?

³⁶ For of him, and thorow him, and in him are all thinges. To him be prayse for euer, Amen.

³ For I saye thorow the grace yt is geue me, vnto euery man amonge you: that no man esteme off him selfe more, then it becometh him to esteme: but that he discretly iudge of himselfe, acordinge as God hath dealte vnto euery man the measure of faith. ⁴ For like as we haue many membres in one body, but all the membres haue not one maner of operacion: ⁵ Euen so we beynge many are one body in Christ. But amonge oure selues euery one is the membre of another,

¹⁰ Be kynde one to another with brotherly loue. In geuynge honoure go one before another.

¹⁵ Neuertheles (brethre) I haue somwhat more boldly wrytten vnto you, as one that putteth you in remembraunce, for the grace that is geue me of God,

¹⁵ Neuertheles (brethre) I haue somwhat more boldly wrytten vnto you, as one that putteth you in remembraunce, for the grace that is geue me of God, ¹⁶ that I shulde be a mynister of Iesu Christ amonge the Heythen, to declare the gospell of God, that the Heythen mighte be an acceptable offerynge vnto God, sanctified by the holy goost.

¹⁶ that I shulde be a mynister of Iesu Christ amonge the Heythen, to declare the gospell of God, that the Heythen mighte be an acceptable offerynge vnto God, sanctified by the holy goost.

¹⁶ that I shulde be a mynister of Iesu Christ amonge the Heythen, to declare the gospell of God, that the Heythen mighte be an acceptable offerynge vnto God, sanctified by the holy goost. ¹⁷ Therfore maye I boost myselfe thorow Iesu Christ, that I medle with thinges perteyninge vnto God. ¹⁸ For I durst not speake ought, excepte Christ had wroughte the same by me, to make the Heythen obediet thorow worde and dede, ¹⁹ thorow the power of tokens and wonders, and thorow the power of the sprete of God, so that from Ierusale, and roude aboute vnto Illyricon, I haue fylled all with the Gospell of Christ.

²⁵ To him yt is of power to stablyshe you, acordinge to my Gospell & preachinge of Iesu Christ, wherby is vttered ye mystery which hath bene kepte secrete, sence ye worlde begane,

²⁵ To him yt is of power to stablyshe you, acordinge to my Gospell & preachinge of Iesu Christ, wherby is vttered ye mystery which hath bene kepte secrete, sence ye worlde begane, ²⁶ but now is opened, & shewed by the scriptures of ye prophetes, at the comaundemet of the euerlastinge God, to set vp ye obediece of the faith amonge all Heythen: ²⁷ to the same God, which alone is wyse, be prayse thorow Iesus Christ for euer, Amen.

²⁴ But vnto them that are called (both Iewes and Grekes) we preach Christ the power of God and the wyssdome off God.

³⁰ Of the same are ye also in Christ Iesu, which of God is made vnto vs wyssdome and righteousnes, and sanctifienge and redepcion,

⁶ That we speake of, is wyssdome amonge the yt are perfecte: not ye wyssdome of this worlde, nether of the rulers of this worlde which go to naughte: ⁷ but we speake of the wyssdome of God, which is in secrete and lyeth hyd: which God ordeyned before the worlde vnto oure glorye:

⁷ but we speake of the wyssdome of God, which is in secrete and lyeth hyd: which God ordeyned before the worlde vnto oure glorye:

⁹ but as it is wrytten: The eye hath not sene, and the eare hath not herde, nether hath it entred in to the hert of man that God hath prepared for them that loue him.

⁹ but as it is wrytten: The eye hath not sene, and the eare hath not herde, nether hath it entred in to the hert of man that God hath prepared for them that loue him. ¹⁰ But God hath opened it vnto vs by his sprete. For the sprete searcheth out all thinges, yee euen the depenesses of the God heade.

⁵ What is Paul? What is Apollo? Eue mynisters are they, by whom ye are come to the beleue, and the same, acordinge as the LORDE hath geuen vnto euery man.

¹ Let euery man this wyse esteme vs, euen for the mynisters of Christ, and stewardes of the secretes of God.

¹ As touchinge thinges offred vnto Idols we are sure yt we all haue knowlege. Knowlege puffeth a ma vp, but loue edifyeth.

¹⁷ Yf I do it with a good wyll, I shall haue my rewarde: but yff I do it agaynst my wyll, yet is the office commytted vnto me. ¹⁸ Wherfore the shal I be rewarded? (Namely therfore) that I preach the Gospell, and do the same frely for naughte, that I abuse not my libertye in ye Gospell. ¹⁹ For though I am fre from all men, yet haue I made my selfe euery mans seruaunt, yt I mighte wynne ye moo. ²⁰ Vnto the Iewes I am become as a Iewe, to wynne ye Iewes. To them that are vnder the lawe, I am become as though I were vnder the lawe, to wynne them which are vnder the lawe. ²¹ Vnto them that are without lawe, I am become as though I were without lawe (where as yet I am not without the lawe of God, but am in ye lawe of Christ) to wynne the that are without lawe. ²² To the weake, am I become as weake, to wynne the weake. I am become of all fasshions vnto euery man, to saue some at ye leest.

⁸ To one is geuen thorow the sprete the vtteraunce of wissdome: to another is geuen the vtteraunce of knowlege acordinge to the same sprete: ⁹ to another, faith in the same sprete: to another, the giftes of healinge in the same sprete: ¹⁰ to another, power to do miracles: to another, prophecienge: to another, iudgment to discerne spretes: to another, dyuerse tunges: to another, the interpretacion of tunges.

¹² For as the body is one, and hath yet many membres, neuertheles all the membres of the body though they be many, are yet but one body: euen so Christ also.

²⁷ But ye are the body of Christ, and membres, euery one of another. ²⁸ And God hath ordeyned in the congregacion, first the Apostles, secodly prophetes, thirdly teachers, then doers of miracles, after that the giftes of healinge, helpers, gouerners, dyuerse tunges. ²⁹ Are they all Apostles? Are they all prophetes? Are they all teachers? Are they all doers of miracles?

² And though I coulde prophecy, & vnderstode all secretes, and all knowlege, and had all faith, so that I coulde moue moutaynes out of their places, and yet had not loue, I were nothinge.

⁹ For I am ye leest of the Apostles, which am not worthy to be called an Apostle, because I persecuted the congregacion of God. ¹⁰ But by the grace of God I am that I am. And his grace in me hath not bene vayne, but I haue laboured more then they all: howbeit not I but the grace of God which is wt me.

¹³ Watch ye, stonde fast in the faith, quyte you like men, and be stronge:

⁶ But whether we haue trouble or comforte, it is done for youre welth. Yf it be trouble, it is done for youre coforte and health, which health sheweth hir power, in that ye suffre the same affliccions which we suffre. Yf it be comforte, it is done also for youre comforte and health.

⁴ Soch trust haue we thorow Christ to God warde,

⁶ which hath made vs able, to be mynisters of the new Testament: not of the letter, but of the sprete. For the letter kylleth, but the sprete geueth life.

¹ Therfore seynge we haue soch an office (euen as mercy is come vpon vs) we faynte not,

¹⁶ Therfore are we not weery, but though or outwarde man be corrupte, yet the inwarde is renewed daye by daye.

¹⁴ For the loue of Christ constrayneth vs, in as moch as we thus iudge, that yf one be deed for all, then are all deed.

¹⁴ For the loue of Christ constrayneth vs, in as moch as we thus iudge, that yf one be deed for all, then are all deed. ¹⁵ And therfore dyed he for all, that they which lyue, shulde not hence forth lyue vnto them selues, but vnto him, which dyed for them and rose agayne.

¹⁶ How acordeth ye teple of God with ymages? Ye are the temple of the lyuynge God, as sayeth God: I wyl dwell in them, and walke in them, and wyl be their God, & they shalbe my people.

⁸ God is able to make you riche in all grace, yt ye in all thinges hauynge sufficiet to the vttemost, maye be riche to all maner of good workes.

¹ I Paul my selfe beseke you by the mekenesse and softnesse off Christ, which when I am present amonge you, am of small reputacion, but am bolde towarde you beynge absent.

⁴ For the wapens of oure warre are not fleshly, but mightie before God to cast downe stroge holdes, ⁵ wherwith we ouerthrowe ymaginacions, & euery hye thinge yt exalteth it selfe agaynst the knowlege of God, and brynge in to captiuyte all vnderstondinge to the obedience of Christ,

⁶ And though I be rude in speakynge, yet am I not rude in knowlege. Howbeit amoge you I am knowne to the vttemost.

²³ They are the mynisters of Christ (I speake as a fole) I am more: in laboures more abudaunt, in strypes aboue measure, in presonmentes more plenteously, in death oft.

⁹ And he sayde vnto me: My grace is sufficiet for the. For my strength is made perfecte thorow weaknes. Very glad therfore wil I reioyse in my weaknesses, that the strength of Christ maye dwell in me.

¹³ All the sayntes salute you.

⁵ to whom be prayse for euer and euer. Amen.

¹² For I nether receaued it ner lerned it of ma, but by the reuelacion of Iesus Christ. ¹³ For ye haue herde of my conuersacion afore tyme in the Ieweshippe, how that beyode measure I persecuted the cogregacion of God, and spoyled it,

¹⁵ But whan it pleased God which separated me fro my mothers wombe, and called me by his grace, ¹⁶ for to declare his sonne in me, that I shulde preach him thorow the Gospell amonge the Heythen, immediatly I commened not of the matter with flesh and bloude:

¹⁶ for to declare his sonne in me, that I shulde preach him thorow the Gospell amonge the Heythen, immediatly I commened not of the matter with flesh and bloude:

¹⁶ for to declare his sonne in me, that I shulde preach him thorow the Gospell amonge the Heythen, immediatly I commened not of the matter with flesh and bloude: ¹⁷ nether came I to Ierusalem vnto them which were Apostles before me: but wente my wayes in to Arabia, and came agayne to Damascon. ¹⁸ Then after thre yeare I came to Ierusale to se Peter, and abode with him fyftene dayes. ¹⁹ As for the other Apostles, I sawe none of them, saue Iames the LORDES brother.

⁸ (For he yt was mightie with Peter to the Apostleshippe ouer the circumcision, the same was mightie with me also amoge the Heythen)

⁸ (For he yt was mightie with Peter to the Apostleshippe ouer the circumcision, the same was mightie with me also amoge the Heythen) ⁹ they perceaued the grace that was geuen vnto me. Iames and Cephas and Ihon, which semed to be pilers, gaue me and Barnabas ye righte handes, and agreed with vs, that we shulde preach amonge the Heythe, and they amonge the Iewes:

²⁰ I am crucified with Christ, yet do I lyue: neuerthelesse now not I, but Christ lyueth in me. For ye life which I now lyue in ye flesshe, I lyue in the faith of ye sonne of God which loued me, and gaue himselfe for me.

¹³ But Christ hath delyuered vs from ye curse of the lawe, whan he became a curse for vs. (For it is wrytte: Cursed is euery man that hangeth on tre) ¹⁴ yt the blessynge of Abraham mighte come on the Gentyles in Christ Iesu, and yt we might so receaue ye promysed sprete, thorow faith.

²⁶ For ye all are the children of God by the faith in Christ Iesu. ²⁷ For as many of you as are baptysed, haue put on Christ. ²⁸ Here is nether Iewe ner Greke: here is nether bode ner fre: here is nether man ner woman, for ye are all one in Christ Iesu. ²⁹ Yf ye be Christes, the are ye Abrahas sede and heyres acordynge to the promes.

⁵ to redeme them which were vnder the lawe, that we mighte receaue ye childshippe. ⁶ For so moch the as ye are children, God hath sent the sprete of his sonne in to oure hertes, which cryeth: Abba, deare father. ⁷ Wherfore now, thou art not a seruaunt, but a sonne. Yf thou be a sonne, then art thou the heyre of God thorow Christ.

² Beholde, I Paul saye vnto you: Yf ye be circumcysed, Christ profiteth you nothinge at all.

⁶ For in Christ Iesu nether is circumcision eny thinge worth ner vncircumcision, but faith which by loue is mightie in operacion.

¹¹ Brethren yf I yet preach circumcision, why do I suffre persecucion? then had the slaunder off the crosse ceassed.

⁹ Let vs not be weery of well doynge: for wha the tyme is come, we shal reape without ceassinge.

³ Blessed be God the father of oure LORDE Iesus Christ, which hath blessed vs wt all maner of spirituall blessynge in heauenly thynges by Christ ⁴ acordinge as he had chosen vs by him, or euer the foundacion of the worlde was layed, that we shulde be holy and without blame before him in loue,

⁶ vnto the prayse of the glory of his grace, wherby he hath made vs accepted in the Beloued, ⁷ in whom we haue redempcion thorow his bloude (namely) the forgeuenes of synnes, acordynge to ye riches of his grace,

⁷ in whom we haue redempcion thorow his bloude (namely) the forgeuenes of synnes, acordynge to ye riches of his grace, ⁸ which he hath shed vpon vs abundauntly in all wyssdome and prudece:

⁸ which he hath shed vpon vs abundauntly in all wyssdome and prudece: ⁹ and hath opened vnto vs the mystery of his wil acordinge to his pleasure, which he had purposed in himselfe,

⁹ and hath opened vnto vs the mystery of his wil acordinge to his pleasure, which he had purposed in himselfe,

⁹ and hath opened vnto vs the mystery of his wil acordinge to his pleasure, which he had purposed in himselfe, ¹⁰ yt it shulde be preached wha the tyme was full come, that all thinges shulde be gathered together by Christ, both the thinges which are in heauen, and also the thinges that are vpon earth,

¹⁰ yt it shulde be preached wha the tyme was full come, that all thinges shulde be gathered together by Christ, both the thinges which are in heauen, and also the thinges that are vpon earth,

¹⁰ yt it shulde be preached wha the tyme was full come, that all thinges shulde be gathered together by Christ, both the thinges which are in heauen, and also the thinges that are vpon earth, ¹¹ euen by him, by whom also we are come to the inheritaunce we that were therto predestinate before, acordinge to ye purpose of him, which worketh all thinges after ye councell of his owne wyll,

¹¹ euen by him, by whom also we are come to the inheritaunce we that were therto predestinate before, acordinge to ye purpose of him, which worketh all thinges after ye councell of his owne wyll,

¹⁵ Wherfore I also, (in so moch as I haue herde of the faith which ye haue in ye LORDE Iesu, and of youre loue vnto all ye sayntes) ¹⁶ ceasse not to geue thankes for you, and make mencion of you in my prayers, ¹⁷ that ye God of oure LORDE Iesus Christ, the father of glory maye geue vnto you the sprete of wyssdome, and open vnto you the knowlege of himselfe,

¹⁷ that ye God of oure LORDE Iesus Christ, the father of glory maye geue vnto you the sprete of wyssdome, and open vnto you the knowlege of himselfe, ¹⁸ and lighten the eyes of youre vnderstondinge, that ye maye knowe what is the hope of youre callynge, and what the riches of his glorious enheritaunce is vpon the sayntes,

¹⁸ and lighten the eyes of youre vnderstondinge, that ye maye knowe what is the hope of youre callynge, and what the riches of his glorious enheritaunce is vpon the sayntes,

¹⁸ and lighten the eyes of youre vnderstondinge, that ye maye knowe what is the hope of youre callynge, and what the riches of his glorious enheritaunce is vpon the sayntes, ¹⁹ & what is the exceadinge greatnesse of his power towarde vs, which beleue acordinge to ye workynge of his mightie power,

¹⁹ & what is the exceadinge greatnesse of his power towarde vs, which beleue acordinge to ye workynge of his mightie power,

¹⁹ & what is the exceadinge greatnesse of his power towarde vs, which beleue acordinge to ye workynge of his mightie power, ²⁰ which he wroughte in Christ, whan he raysed him vp fro the deed, and set him on his righte hade i heauely thinges, ²¹ aboue all rule, power, and mighte, and dominacio, and aboue all that maye be named, not onely in this worlde, but also in ye worlde to come.

²¹ aboue all rule, power, and mighte, and dominacio, and aboue all that maye be named, not onely in this worlde, but also in ye worlde to come. ²² And hath put all thinges vnder his fete, and hath made him aboue all thinges the heade of the cogregacion, ²³ which is his body, and the fulnesse of him that fylleth all in all.

²³ which is his body, and the fulnesse of him that fylleth all in all.

⁷ yt in tymes to come he mighte shewe the exceadinge riches of his grace, in kyndnesse to vs warde in Christ Iesu.

¹¹ Wherfore remebre, that ye (which afore tyme were Gentyles after the flesh, and were called vn circumcision, of the that are called circumcision after the flesh, which circumcision is made with the hande) ¹² that ye at the same tyme were without Christ, and reputed aleauntes from the comen welth of Israel, and were straungers from the Testamentes of promes, therfore had ye no hope, and were without God in this worlde. ¹³ But now ye that be in Christ Iesu, and afore tyme were farre of, are now made nye by the bloude of Christ. ¹⁴ For he is or peace, which of both hath made one, and hath broken downe the wall, that was a stoppe betwene vs, ¹⁵ and hath also thorow his flesh put awaye the cause off hatred (namely the lawe of the commaundemetes contayned in the lawe wrytten) that of twayne he mighte create one new man in him selfe, and make peace, ¹⁶ and to reconcyle both vnto God in one body thorow the crosse, and so he slewe ye hatred thorow his owne selfe, ¹⁷ and came and preached peace in the Gospell, vnto you which were afarre of, and to the that were nye. ¹⁸ For thorow him we both haue intraunce in one sprete vnto the father.

¹⁸ For thorow him we both haue intraunce in one sprete vnto the father. ¹⁹ Now therfore ye are nomore gestes and straungers, but citesins with the sayntes, & of the housholde of God, ²⁰ buylded vpon ye foundacion of ye Apostles and prophetes where Iesus Christ is ye heade corner stone

²⁰ buylded vpon ye foundacion of ye Apostles and prophetes where Iesus Christ is ye heade corner stone ²¹ in whom euery buyldinge coupled together, groweth to an holy temple in the LODRE, ²² in whom ye also are buylded together, to be an habitacion of God in the sprete.

¹ For this cause I Paul am a presoner of Iesus Christ for you Heythen, ² acordinge as ye haue herde of ye office of the grace of God which is geuen me to you warde. ³ For by reuelacion was this mystery shewed vnto me, as I wrote aboue in fewe wordes: ⁴ wherby whan ye rede it, ye maye perceaue myne vnderstondynge in ye mystery of Christ,

⁴ wherby whan ye rede it, ye maye perceaue myne vnderstondynge in ye mystery of Christ, ⁵ which (mystery) in tymes past was not opened vnto the childre of me as it is now declared to his holy Apostles and prophetes by the sprete: namely,

⁷ wherof I am made a mynister acordynge to the gifte of the grace of God, which is geue me acordinge to the workynge of his power. ⁸ Vnto me the leest of all sayntes is this grace geuen, that I shulde preach amonge the Heythe ye vnsearcheable riches of Christ, ⁹ and to make all men se, what is the fellishippe of the mystery, which fro the begynnynge of the worlde hath bene hyd in God, which made all thiges thorow Iesus Christ:

¹³ Wherfore I desyre that ye faynte not because of my tribulacions, yt I suffre for you, which is youre prayse.

¹⁶ that he graunte you (acordinge to ye riches of his glory) to be strengthed with power by his sprete in ye inwarde ma,

¹⁸ maye be able to coprehende with all sayntes, what is the bredth, and the length, and the deepth, and the heyth: ¹⁹ and to knowe the loue of Christ, which loue yet passeth all knowlege: that ye maye be fylled with all maner of fulnesse of God. ²⁰ Vnto him that is able to do exceadinge abundauntly, aboue all that we axe or vnderstonde (acordinge to ye power that worketh in vs)

¹ I therfore which am presoner in the LORDE, exhorte you, that ye walke as it becometh yor callinge wherin ye are called,

⁷ Vnto euery one of vs is geuen grace, acordinge to the measure off the gifte off Christ.

¹¹ And ye same hath set some to be Apostles, some to be prophetes, some to be Euangelistes, some to be shepherdes & teachers, ¹² wherby the sayntes mighte be coupled together thorow comen seruyce to the edifienge of ye body of Christ,

¹⁵ But let vs folowe the trueth in loue, and in all thinges growe in him, which is the heade, euen Christ, ¹⁶ in whom all the body is coupled together, and one membre hangeth by another thorow out all ye ioyntes. Wherby one mynistreth vnto another (acordinge to the operacion as euery membre hath his measure) and maketh, that ye body groweth to the edifienge of it selfe in loue.

¹⁶ in whom all the body is coupled together, and one membre hangeth by another thorow out all ye ioyntes. Wherby one mynistreth vnto another (acordinge to the operacion as euery membre hath his measure) and maketh, that ye body groweth to the edifienge of it selfe in loue.

²¹ yf so be that ye haue herde of him, & are taught in him, euen as the trueth is in Iesu.

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.

⁷ Be not ye therfore companions with them.

²⁵ Ye hussbandes loue youre wyues, euen as Christ loued the congregacion, and gaue himselfe for it,

³⁰ For we are membres of his body, of his flesh and of his bones.

³² This is a greate secrete: but I speake of Christ and the congregacion.

¹⁰ Fynally my brethren, be stronge in the LORDE, and in the power of his mighte:

¹² For we wrestle not agaynst flesh and bloude, but agaynst rule, agaynst power namely, agaynst the rulers of the worlde, of the darknesse of this worlde, agaynst ye spretes of wickednes vnder the heauen.

¹⁹ and for me, that the worde maye be geuen me, that I maye open my mouth boldly, to vtter the secretes of the Gospell, ²⁰ wherof I am a messaunger in bondes, that I maye speake therin frely, as it becommeth me to speake.

⁷ as it becommeth me to iudge of you all, because I haue you in my hert, as those that are partakers with me of grace in my bondes, in defendinge and stablyshinge of the Gospell.

¹¹ fylled with the frutes of righteousnes, which come by Iesus Christ vnto the glorye and prayse of God. ¹² I wolde ye vnderstode brethren, that my busynes is happened vnto the greater furtheraunce of the Gospell, ¹³ so that my bondes in Christ are manifest thorow out all ye iudgmet hall, and in all other places:

¹³ so that my bondes in Christ are manifest thorow out all ye iudgmet hall, and in all other places: ¹⁴ In so moch that many brethren in the LORDE, are boldened thorow my bodes, and darre more largely speake the worde without feare.

¹⁴ In so moch that many brethren in the LORDE, are boldened thorow my bodes, and darre more largely speake the worde without feare. ¹⁵ Some (no doute) preach Christ of enuye and stryfe, but some of good wil. ¹⁶ The one parte preacheth Christ off stryfe and not purely, supposynge to adde more aduersite vnto my bondes.

⁷ And ye peace of God, which passeth all vnderstodinge, kepe youre hertes and myndes in Christ Iesu.

¹³ I can do all thinges thorow Christ, which stregtheth me.

¹⁹ My God fulfyll all yor nede, acordinge to his riches in glory i Christ Iesu. ²⁰ Vnto God and oure father be prayse for euer and euer Amen.

⁶ which is come vnto you, eue as it is into all the worlde: and is frutefull, as it is in you, sence ye daye yt ye herde and knewe the grace of God in ye trueth,

¹⁰ that ye mighte walke worthy off the LORDE, to please him in all thinges, and to be frutefull in all good workes, and growe in the knowlege of God: ¹¹ & to be strengthed wt all power acordinge to the mighte of his glory, to all pacience and longsufferynge with ioyfulnes,

¹⁶ For by him were all thinges created, that are in heauen and earth, thinges vysible and thinges inuysible, whether they be maiesties or lordshippes, ether rules or powers: All thinges are created by him and in him,

¹⁶ For by him were all thinges created, that are in heauen and earth, thinges vysible and thinges inuysible, whether they be maiesties or lordshippes, ether rules or powers: All thinges are created by him and in him, ¹⁷ and he is before all thinges, and in him all thinges haue their beynge.

²³ yf ye contynue grounded and stablished in the faith, and be not moued awaye from ye hope of the Gospell, wherof ye haue herde: which is preached amonge all creatures yt are vnder heauen, wherof I Paul am made a mynister.

²⁵ wherof I am made a mynister, acordinge to ye Godly office of preachinge, which is geuen vnto me amonge you, that I shulde richely preach the worde of God, ²⁶ namely, that mystery which hath bene hyd sence the worlde beganne, and sence the begynnynge of tymes: but now is opened vnto his sayntes,

²⁶ namely, that mystery which hath bene hyd sence the worlde beganne, and sence the begynnynge of tymes: but now is opened vnto his sayntes, ²⁷ to whom God wolde make knowne the glorious riches of this mistery amoge ye Heythen: which (riches) is Christ in you, eue he that is the hope of glory,

²⁷ to whom God wolde make knowne the glorious riches of this mistery amoge ye Heythen: which (riches) is Christ in you, eue he that is the hope of glory,

²⁹ Wherin I also laboure, and stryue acordinge to the workynge of him which worketh mightely in me.

¹ I wolde ye knewe what fightinge I haue for youre sakes, and for them of Laodicea, and for as many as haue not sene my personne in the flesh, ² that their hertes mighte be comforted and knytt together in loue, to all riches of full vnderstodinge, which is in the knowlege of the mystery of God the father and of Christ,

⁷ and be roted & buylded in him, and be stedfast in faith, as ye haue learned: & be plenteous in the same in geuynge thankes.

⁹ For in him dwelleth all the fulnes of the Godheade bodely, ¹⁰ and ye are complete in him, which is the heade of all rule and power:

¹⁹ and holdeth not himselfe to the heade, wherof the whole body by ioyntes and couples receaueth norishment, and is knyt together, and so groweth to the greatnes that commeth of God.

³ For ye are deed, and youre life is hyd with Christ in God.

³ and praye also together for vs, that God open vnto vs the dore of the worde, to speake the mystery of Christ (wherfore I am also in bodes)

¹⁸ My salutacion with the hnade of me Paul. Remembre my bodes. Grace be with you, Amen.

¹³ For this cause thanke we God without ceassynge, because that wha ye receaued of vs the worde of the preachinge of God, ye receaued it not as ye worde of men, but (eue as it is of a trueth) the worde of God, which worketh in you that beleue.

¹⁵ Which as they put the LORDE Iesus to death, and their awne prophetes, euen so haue they persecuted vs also, and please not God, and are cotrary to all men, ¹⁶ forbyddinge vs to speake vnto the Heythen that they mighte be saued, to fulfill their synnes allwaye: for the wrath is come vpon them allready vnto ye vttemost.

² & sent Timotheus oure brother and mynister of God, and oure helper in ye gospell of Christ, to stablysh you and to comforte you in youre faith, ³ that noman shulde be moued in these troubles: (for ye youre selues knowe, that we are euen appoynted there vnto. ⁴ And whan we were with you, we tolde you before, that we shulde suffre tribulacion, euen as it is come to passe, & as ye knowe.)

¹³ But we are bounde to geue thankes allwaye vnto God for you, brethren be loued of the LORDE, because that God hath from the begynnynge chosen you to saluacion in the sanctifienge of the sprete and in beleuynge of the trueth,

¹³ Neuertheles brethren, be not ye weery of well doynge.

⁴ nether geue hede to fables and genealogies, which are endlesse, and brede doutes more then godly edifyenge, which is by faith.

¹¹ acordinge to ye Gospell of ye glory of the blessed God, which (Gospell) is comytted vnto me.

¹³ wha before I was a blasphemer, & a persecuter, & a tyraunt: but I optayned mercy, because I dyd it ignorauntly in vnbeleue. ¹⁴ Neuertheles the grace of or LORDE was more abudaunt thorow ye faith & loue which is in Christ Iesu.

¹⁴ Neuertheles the grace of or LORDE was more abudaunt thorow ye faith & loue which is in Christ Iesu.

¹⁴ Neuertheles the grace of or LORDE was more abudaunt thorow ye faith & loue which is in Christ Iesu. ¹⁵ For this is a true sayenge, and by all meanes worthy to be receaued, that Christ Iesus came in to ye worlde to saue synners, of whom I am chefe.

¹⁵ For this is a true sayenge, and by all meanes worthy to be receaued, that Christ Iesus came in to ye worlde to saue synners, of whom I am chefe.

¹⁵ For this is a true sayenge, and by all meanes worthy to be receaued, that Christ Iesus came in to ye worlde to saue synners, of whom I am chefe. ¹⁶ Notwithstondynge for this cause optayned I mercy, that Iesus Christ mighte pryncipally shewe in me all longe pacience, to the ensample of them which shulde beleue in him vnto eternall life.

⁷ wherevnto I am ordeyned a preacher & an Apostle (I tell ye trueth in Christ and lye not) a teacher of the Heythe in faith and in the trueth.

⁹ but hauynge the mystery of faith in pure conscience.

¹⁶ and without naye, greate is that mystery of godlynes. God was shewed in the flesh: was iustified in the sprete: was sene of angels: was preached vnto the Heythen: was beleued on in the worlde: was receaued vp in glory.

⁸ Be not thou asshamed therfore of ye testimony of or LORDE, nether of me, which am his presoner: but suffre thou aduersite also wt the Gospell, acordinge to the power of God ⁹ which hath saued vs, and called vs with an holy callynge: not acordinge to oure dedes, but acordinge to his owne purpose and grace, which was geuen vs in Christ Iesu before the tyme of the worlde, ¹⁰ but is now declared openly by the appearynge of oure Sauioure Iesu Christ. Which hath taken awaye ye power of death, and hath brought life and immortalite vnto lighte, thorow the Gospell: ¹¹ whervnto I am appoynted a preacher and an Apostell, and a teacher of the Heythen:

¹¹ whervnto I am appoynted a preacher and an Apostell, and a teacher of the Heythen:

¹⁶ The LORDE geue mercy vnto the house of Onesiphorus: for he oft refresshed me, and was not asshamed of my cheyne:

⁹ where in I suffre as an euell doer euen vnto bandes: but the worde of God is not bounde. ¹⁰ Therfore suffre I all for the electes sakes, that they also mighte optayne the saluacion in Christ Iesu with eternall glory.

¹⁷ Notwitstondynge the LORDE stode by me, & stregthed me, that by me the preachinge shulde be fulfylled to the vttemost, and that all the Heythe shulde heare. And I was delyuered out of the mouth of the lyon. ¹⁸ And the LORDE shal delyuer me from all euell doynge, and shal kepe me vnto his heauenly kyngdome. To whom be prayse for euer and euer, Amen.

¹ Pavl the seruaunt of God, and an Apostle off Iesus Christ, to preach the faith off Gods electe, and the knowlege of ye trueth, which ledeth vnto godlynes, ² vpon the hope of eternall life: which God that can not lye hath promysed before the tymes of the worlde:

² vpon the hope of eternall life: which God that can not lye hath promysed before the tymes of the worlde: ³ but at his tyme hath opened his worde thorow preachinge, which is commytted vnto me acordinge to the commaundemet of God oure Sauioure.

¹³ lokynge for that blessed hope and appearynge of the glory of ye greate God and of oure Sauioure Iesu Christ: ¹⁴ which gaue him selfe for vs, to redeme vs fro all vnrighteousnes, and to pourge vs to be a peculiar people vnto himselfe, to be feruently geuen vnto good workes.

¹ Paul the presoner of Iesu Christ, and brother Timotheus. Vnto Philemon the beloued, and oure helper,

⁹ yet for loues sake I rather beseke ye, though I be as I am, eue Paul aged, and now a presoner also of Iesu Christ.

²³ There saluteth the, Epaphras my felowe presoner in Christ Iesu,

² but in these last dayes he hath spoken vnto vs by his sonne, whom he hath made heyre of all thinges, by whom also he made the worlde. ³ Which (sonne) beynge the brightnes of his glory, & the very ymage of his substaunce, bearinge vp all thinges with the worde of his power, hath in his owne personne pourged oure synnes, and is set on the righte hande of the maiestie on hye:

³ But this man is worthy of greater honoure then moses, in as moch as he which prepareth the house, hath greater honoure in it, then the house it selfe. ⁴ For euery house is prepared of some ma: but he that ordeyned all thinges, is God.

¹⁴ Seynge then that we haue a greate hye prest, eue Iesus ye sonne of God, which is entred in to heauen, let vs holde oure profession. ¹⁵ For we haue not an hye prest which ca not haue copassion on or infirmities, but was in all poyntes tepted, like as we are, but without synne. ¹⁶ Let vs therfore go boldely vnto the seate of grace that we maye receaue mercy, and fynde grace to helpe in the tyme of nede.

²⁵ Wherfore he is able also euer to saue them, that come vnto God by him: & lyueth euer, to make intercession for vs.

¹⁹ Seynge now brethre, that we haue a fre sure intraunce in to that Holy place, ²⁰ by the bloude of Iesu (which he hath prepared vnto vs for a new and lyuynge waye, thorow the vayle, that is to saye, by his flesh) ²¹ and seynge also that we haue an hye prest ouer the house of God, ²² let vs drawe nye with a true hert in a full faith, sprenkled in oure hertes from an euell conscience, and washed in oure bodies with pure water:

¹⁹ For he considered, yt God was able to rayse vp agayne from the deed. Therfore receaued he him for an ensample.

³⁴ quenched the violece of fyre, escaped ye edge of the swerde, of weake were made stronge, became valeaunt in batayll, turned to flighte the armyes of the aleauntes,

³⁹ And these all thorow faith optayned good reporte, and receaued not ye promes: ⁴⁰ because God had prouyded a better thinge for vs, that they without vs shulde not be made perfecte.

³ Cosidre him therfore that endured soch speakinge agaynst hi of synners, lest ye be weery and faynte in youre myndes: ⁴ for ye haue not yet resisted vnto bloude, stryuynge agaynst synne, ⁵ and haue forgotten the consolacion, which speaketh vnto you as vnto children: My sonne, despyse not the chastenynge off the LORDE, nether faynte whan thou art rebuked of him:

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.

²⁰ The God of peace (that broughte agayue fro the deed oure LORDE Iesus the greate shepherde of the shepe thorow the bloude of the euerlastinge Testament) ²¹ make you perfecte in all good workes, to do his wyll, workynge in you that which is pleasaunt in his sighte thorow Iesus Christ, to whom be prayse for euer and euer Amen.

²¹ make you perfecte in all good workes, to do his wyll, workynge in you that which is pleasaunt in his sighte thorow Iesus Christ, to whom be prayse for euer and euer Amen.

¹² There is one lawe geuer, which is able to saue and to distroye. What art thou that iudgest another man?

¹⁰ Of which saluacion the prophetes haue enquyred and searched, which prophecied off the grace that shulde come vpon you: ¹¹ searchinge whan or at what tyme the sprete off Christ that was in them, shulde signifye, which (sprete) testified before the passions that shulde come vnto Christ, and the glory that shulde folowe after. ¹² Vnto the which (prophetes) it was declared, that not vnto them selues, but vnto vs they shulde mynister the thinges which are now shewed vnto you, by them which thorow ye holy goost sent downe from heauen, haue preached vnto you the thinges which the angels delyte to beholde.

¹² Vnto the which (prophetes) it was declared, that not vnto them selues, but vnto vs they shulde mynister the thinges which are now shewed vnto you, by them which thorow ye holy goost sent downe from heauen, haue preached vnto you the thinges which the angels delyte to beholde.

²⁰ which was ordeyned before the worlde was made, but is declared in these last tymes for youre sakes,

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.

⁴ but let ye inwarde ma of ye hert be vncorrupte wt a meke & a quyete sprete, which before God is moch set by.

²² which is on the righte hande of God, and is gone in to heaue, angels, power and mighte subdued vnto him.

⁵ Likewyse ye yoger submytte youre selues vnto the elder. Submytte youre selues euery man one to another, and knyt yor selues together in lowlynes of mynde. For God resisteth the proude, but geueth grace to the humble. ⁶ Submytte yor selues therfore vnder the mightie hande of God, that he maye exalte you whan the tyme is come.

¹¹ To him be prayse and domynion for euer and euer, Amen.

¹¹ and by this meanes shal there be plenteously mynistred vnto you an entrynge in vnto ye euerlastinge kyngdome of oure LORDE and Sauioure Iesus Christ.

² the wordes, which were tolde before of the holy prophetes: and also the commaundement of vs, that be the Apostles of the LORDE and Sauioure.

¹⁸ But growe in grace, and in the knowlege of oure LORDE and Sauioure Iesus Christ. To him be prayse now and for euer, Amen.

³ That which we haue sene & herde, declare we vnto you, that ye also maye haue fellishippe with vs, and that oure fellishippe maye be with the father and with his sonne Iesus Christ.

²⁵ And this is the promes yt he hath promysed vs, eue eternall life.

⁴ Litle children, ye are off God, and haue ouercome them: for greater is he that is in you, then he that is in the worlde.

⁹ By this appeared the loue of God to vs warde, because that God sent his onely begotten sonne in to this worlde, that we mighte lyue thorow him. ¹⁰ Herein is loue, not that we loued God, but that he loued vs, and sent his sonne to make agremet for oure synnes. ¹¹ Dearly beloued, yf God so loued vs, we oughte also to loue one another. ¹² No man hath sene God at eny tyme. Yf we loue one another, God dwelleth in vs, and his loue is perfecte in vs. ¹³ Hereby knowe we that we dwell in him, and he in vs, because he hath geuen vs of his sprete. ¹⁴ And we haue sene, & testifye that the father sent the sonne to be the Sauioure of the worlde.

¹⁶ and we haue knowne and beleued the loue that God hath to vs. God is loue, and he that dwelleth in loue dwelleth in God, and God in him.

¹⁷ But ye beloued, remeber the wordes which were spoken before of the Apostles of oure LORDE Iesus Christ,

²⁴ Vnto him that is able to kepe you, that ye faule not, and to present you fautlesse before ye presence of his glory with ioye, ²⁵ yt is to saye, to God oure saueoure which only is wyse, be glory, maiestie, dominion, & power, now and for euer. Amen.

¹⁰ Feare none of tho thinges which thou shalt soffre. Beholde, ye deuell shal cast of you in to preson, to tempte you, and ye shal haue tribulacion x. dayes. Be faithfull vnto the deeth, and I wil geue ye a crowne of life.

¹⁷ Let him yt hath eares, heare, what the sprete saith vnto the cogregacions: To him that ouercommeth, wil I geue to eate mana that is hyd, and wil geue him a whyte stone, & in the stone a newe name wrytte, which no man knoweth, sauinge he that receaueth it.

¹² Him that ouer commeth, will I make a pyllar in the temple of my God, and he shal goo no more out.And I will wryte vpon him, the name of my God, and the name of ye cite of my God, newe Ierusalem, which cometh downe out of heauen from my God, and I will wryte vpo him my newe name.

¹⁸ I counsell the to bye of me golde tryed in the fyre, that thou mayste be riche: and whyte rayment, that thou mayste be clothed, that thy fylthy nakednes do not apere: anoynt thine eyes with eye salue, yt thou mayste se.

²⁰ Beholde, I stonde at the doore & knocke. Yf eny man heare my voyce and vpen the dore, I wil come in vnto him and will suppe with him, & he with me. ²¹ To him that ouercomth, will I graute to sytt with me on my seate, eue as I ouercam and haue sytte with my father on his seate.

⁹ And when those beestes gaue glory and honour and thankes to him that sat on the seate, which lyueth for euer and euer: ¹⁰ ye xxiiij. elders fell downe before him that sat on the trone, and worshipped him yt lyueth for euer, and cast their crounes before ye trone, sayenge: ¹¹ thou art worthy LORDE to receaue glory, and honor, and power, for thou hast created all thinges, and for thy willes sake they are, and were created.

¹¹ thou art worthy LORDE to receaue glory, and honor, and power, for thou hast created all thinges, and for thy willes sake they are, and were created.

⁸ And when he had taken the boke, the foure beestes and the xxiiij. elders fell downe before the lambe, hauinge harpes and golden vialles full of odoures (which are ye prayers of the sayntes) ⁹ and they songe a newe songe saynge: thou art worthy to take the boke & to ope the seales therof: for thou wast kylled, and hast redemed vs by thy bloud, out of all kynreddes, and toges, and people, and nacions, ¹⁰ & hast made vs vnto or God, kynges and prestes, and we shal raygne on ye earth. ¹¹ And I behelde, and I herd the voyce of many angilles aboute the trone, and aboute the beestes and ye elders, and I herde thousand thousandes, ¹² sayenge with a loude voyce: Worthy is the lambe that was killed, to receaue power, and riches & wissdome, and strength, and honoure and glory, and blessynge. ¹³ And all creatures, which are in heaue, & on the earth, & vnder the earth, & in the see, & all yt are in the, herd I sayenge: blessinge, honoure, glory, & power, be vnto him, yt sytteth vpo the seate, and vnto the labe for euermore. ¹⁴ And the foure beestes saide: Ame. And ye xxiiij. elders fell vpon their faces, and worshipped him that lyueth for euermore.

⁴ And I herde the nombre of them which were sealed, and there were sealed an c. and xliiij. M. of all the trybes of the children of Israell. ⁵ Of ye trybe of Iuda were sealed xij. M. Of the trybe of Ruben were sealed xij. M. Of the trybe of Gad were sealed xij. M. ⁶ Of the trybe of Asser were sealed xij. M. Of the trybe of Neptalym were sealed xij. M. Of ye trybe of Manasses were sealed xij. M. ⁷ Of the trybe of Symeon were sealed xij. M. Of the trybe of Leui were sealed xij. M. Of the trybe of Isacar were sealed xij. M. ⁸ Of the trybe of Zabulon were sealed xij. M. Of the trybe of Ioseph were sealed xij. M. Of the trybe of Beniamin were sealed xij. thousande. ⁹ After this I behelde, and lo, a gret multitude (which no man coulde nombre) of all nacions and people, and tonges, stode before the seate, and before the lambe, clothed wt longe whyte garmetes, and palmes in their hondes, ¹⁰ and cryed with a loude voyce, sayenge: saluacion be asscribed to him yt sytteth vpon the seate of oure God, and vnto the lambe. ¹¹ And all the angels stode in the compase of the seate, and of the elders and of the foure beastes, and fell before ye seat on their faces, and worshipped God, ¹² sayenge, amen: Blessynge and glory, wissdome and thakes, and honour, and power and might, be vnto oure God for euermore Amen.

¹² sayenge, amen: Blessynge and glory, wissdome and thakes, and honour, and power and might, be vnto oure God for euermore Amen. ¹³ And one of the elders answered, sayenge vnto me: what are these which are arayed in longe whyte garmetes, and whence cam they? ¹⁴ And I sayde vnto him: LORDE thou wotest. And he sayde vnto me: these are they which cam out of gret tribulacion, and made their garmentes large, and made the whyte in the bloude of the lambe: ¹⁵ therfore are they in the presence of the seate of God and serue him daye and night in his temple, and he that sytteth in the seate, wyll dwell amonge them. ¹⁶ They shal honger nomore nether thyrst, nether shal the sonne lyght on them, nether eny heate: ¹⁷ For the labe which is in the myddes of the seate, shal fede them, and shal leade them vnto fountaynes of lyuynge water, and God shal wype awaye all teares from their eyes.

⁸ and all that dwell vpon the earth worshipt him: whose names are not wrytten in the boke of life of the lambe, which was kylled from the beginnynge of the worlde.

⁶ And I sawe an angell flye in the myddes of heauen hauinge an euerlastinge Gospell, to preache vnto them that syt and dwell on the earth, and to all nacions, kinreddes, and toges and people,

⁸ The beest that thou seest, was, and is not, and shall ascende out of the bottomlesse pytt, and shal go in to perdicion, and they that dwell on the earth shal wondre (whose names are not wrytten in the boke of life from the begynnynge of the worlde) when they beholde the beest that was, and is not.

²² And I sawe no temple therin. For the LORDE God allmighty and the lambe is the temple of it, ²³ and the cite hath no nede of the Sonne, nether of the mone to lyghten it. For the bryghtnes of God doth light it: and the lambe is the lyght of it. ²⁴ And ye people which are saued, shal walke in the light of it: and the kynges of the earth shal brynge their glory vnto it.

³ And there shalbe no more cursse, but the seate of God and ye labe shalbe in it: and his seruauntes shal serue him: ⁴ And shal se his face, and his name shalbe in their for heades. ⁵ And there shalbe no night there, and they nede no candle, nether light of the Sonne: for the LORDE God geueth the light, and they shal reygne for euermore.
