¹ Iacob dwelt in ye lande, wherin his father was a straunger, namely in the lade of Canaa. ² And these are ye generacios of Iacob. Ioseph was seuetene yeare olde, wha he became a keper of the catell wt his brethren, & the lad was wt the children of Bilha & Silpa his fathers wyues, and tolde their father of ye euell reporte yt was of the. ³ Israel loued Ioseph more the all his childre because he had begotte him in his olde age, and he made him a cote of many coloures. ⁴ Now wha his brethre sawe, yt his father loued him more the all his brethre, they had euell wyll at him, & coude not speake a fredly worde vnto hi. ⁵ Ioseph also had once a dreame, and tolde his brethre therof. The hated they him ye more, ⁶ for he sayde: Heare I praye you what I dreamed. ⁷ Me thought we were byndinge sheeues vpo ye felde, & my shefe arose, and stode vp, and youre sheeues rounde aboute made obeysaunce vnto my shefe. ⁸ Then sayde his brethre vnto him: Shalt thou be or kinge, and haue domynio ouer vs? And they hated him yet ye more, because of his dreame, & his wordes. ⁹ And he had yet another dreame, which he tolde his brethre, & saide: Beholde, I had yet another dreame: Me thought ye Sonne & ye Moone & eleuen starres made obeisauce to me. ¹⁰ And wha this was tolde his father and his brethre, his father reproued him, & sayde vnto him: What maner of dreame is this, yt thou hast dreamed? Shall I & thy mother, & thy brethren come & fall before ye vpon the groude? ¹¹ And his brethre had envie at him. But his father marcked this sayenge. ¹² Now wha his brethren were gone forth to kepe their fathers catell in Siche, ¹³ Israel sayde vnto Ioseph: Do not yi brethren kepe the catell in Sichem? Come, I wil sende the vnto the. He answered: Here am I. ¹⁴ And he sayde: Go thy waye, and loke whether it be well wt thy brethren and with ye catell, and brynge me worde agayne how it is. And he sent him out of the valley of Hebron, to go vnto Sichem. ¹⁵ Then a certayne man founde him, wandringe out of his waye in the felde, which axed him, and sayde: Whom sekest thou? ¹⁶ He answered: I seke my brethren: tell me I pray the where they kepe. ¹⁷ The man sayde: They are gone from hence, for I herde them saye: let vs go vnto Dothan. Then folowed Ioseph after his brethren, and founde them at Dothan. ¹⁸ Now whan they sawe him a farre of, afore he came at the, they deuysed to sleye him, ¹⁹ and sayde one to another: Lo, there cometh the dreamer, ²⁰ come on, and let vs sley him, & cast him in a pytt, and saye: a wicked beast hath deuoured him: the shal it be sene, what his dreames are. ²¹ When Ruben herde that, he wolde haue delyuered him out of their handes, & sayde: O let vs not sley a soule. ²² Ruben sayde morouer vnto him: Shed no bloude, but cast him in to this pytt yt is in the wyldernes, & laye ye no hades vpon him. (He wolde haue delyuered him out of their hades, yt he might haue brought him agayne vnto his father.) ²³ Whan Ioseph now came to his brethre, they stryped him out of his cote, that partye coloured cote which he had vpon him, ²⁴ & toke him and cast him in to a pytt. But the same pytt was emptye, and no water in it, ²⁵ & they sat them downe to eate. In the meane season they lift vp their eyes, and sawe a copany of Ismaelites comynge from Gilead, with their camels, which bare spyces, balme, and myrre, and were goinge downe into Egipte. ²⁶ Then saide Iuda vnto his brethre: what helpeth it vs, that we sleye oure brother, and hyde his bloude? ²⁷ Come, let vs sell him vnto the Ismaelites, that oure handes be not defyled vpon him, for he is oure brother, oure flesh and bloude. And they herkened vnto him. ²⁸ And as the Madianites marchaunt men wente by, they drew Ioseph out of the pytt, and solde him vnto the Ismaelites (for twetye syluer pens) which brought him in to Egipte. ²⁹ Now whan Ruben came agayne vnto the pytt, & founde not Ioseph therin, he rent his clothes, ³⁰ and came agayne to his brethre and sayde: The lad is not yonder, whyther shal I go? ³¹ Then toke they Iosephs cote & slewe a goate, and dypped the cote in ye bloude, ³² and sent awaye that partie coloured cote, and caused it be brought vnto their father and sayde: This haue we founde, loke, whether it be thy sonnes coate, or no. ³³ But he knewe it, and sayde: It is my sonnes coate, a wicked beast hath deuoured him, a rauyshinge beast hath rauyshed Ioseph. ³⁴ And Iacob rete his clothes, and put a sack cloth aboute his loynes, & mourned for his sonne a longe season. ³⁵ And all his sonnes & doughters came vnto him to coforte him. But he wolde not be coforted, & saide: With sorowe wil I go downe in to the graue vnto my sonne. And his father wepte for him. ³⁶ But the Madianites solde him in Egipte vnto Potiphar Pharaos chefe Marshall.

¹ Ioseph was brought downe in to Egipte, & Potiphar an Egipcia Pharaos chefe marshall bought him of ye Ismaelites, yt brought him downe. ² And ye LORDE was wt Ioseph, in so moch yt he became a luckye ma, & was in his master ye Egipcians house. ³ And his master sawe yt the LORDE was wt him: for what so euer he dyd, the LORDE made it to prospere in his hade: ⁴ so yt he founde fauor in his masters sight, & was his seruaunt. He made him ruler of his house, and put all that he had, vnder his hande. ⁵ And from the tyme forth that he had made him ruler of his house and all his goodes, ye LORDE blessed the Egipcians house for Iosephs sake: and there was nothynge but the very blessynge of the LORDE in all yt he had in ye house & in the felde, ⁶ therfore left he all yt he had, in Iosephs hande. And medled with nothinge himself, saue onely the bred that he ate. And Ioseph was fayre of bewtye, and well fauoured of face. ⁷ And it fortuned after these actes, that his masters wife cast hir eyes vpon Ioseph, and sayde: Slepe with me. ⁸ But he denyed, and saide vnto her: Beholde, my master knoweth not what is in ye house, and all that he hath, that hath he put vnder my hande. ⁹ And there is no man so greate in the house as I, and he hath kepte nothinge fro me, excepte the: for thou art his wife. How shulde I then do so greate euell, and synne agaynst God? ¹⁰ But she spake soch wordes vnto Ioseph daylie. Neuertheles he herkened not vnto her, to slepe by her, or to be in her company. ¹¹ It fortuned vpon a tyme, that Ioseph wente in to the house to do his busynesse, and there was none of ye folkes of the house thereby. ¹² And she caught him by his garment, & sayde: Slepe with me. But he left the garment in hir hande, and fled, and gat him out of the house. ¹³ Now wha she sawe that he had left his garmet in hir hande, and fled out, ¹⁴ she called the folkes in the house, and sayde vnto the: Lo, he hath brought vs in the Hebrue, to do vs shame. He came in here vnto me, to slepe by me: but I cried with loude voyce. ¹⁵ And whan he herde that I made a noyse & cried, he left his garmet here by me, and fled, and ranne out. ¹⁶ And she layed vp his garmet by her, tyll his master came home, ¹⁷ and tolde him euen the same wordes, and sayde: The Hebrue seruaunt whom thou broughtest here vnto vs, came in here to me, for to do me shame. ¹⁸ But whan I made a noyse and cried, he left his garment here by me, and fled out. ¹⁹ Whan his master herde the wordes of his wyfe which she tolde him, and sayde: Thus hath the Hebrue seruaunt done vnto me, he was very wroth. ²⁰ Then his master toke him, and put him in the preson, wherin the kinges presoners laie. And there he laye in preson. ²¹ But the LORDE was with him, and had mercy vpon him, & caused him to fynde fauor in the sight of the officer of ye preson, ²² so that he committed all the presoners of the preson vnto his hades: that what so euer were done, might be done by him. ²³ For the officer of the preson sawe, yt the LORDE was with him in all yt was vnder his handes, and that what so euer he dyd, the LORDE made it to come prosperously to passe.

²⁴ And he turned him from them, and wepte. Now whan he had turned him to them agayne, and talked wt them, he toke Symon from amonge them & bounde him before their eyes,

²⁰ Then answered we: We haue a father, which is olde, and a yonge lad begotten in his age, and his brother is deed, & he is left alone of his mother, and his father loueth him.

³ And he saide: I am ye mightie God of thy father, be not afrayed to go into Egipte, for there wyl I make a greate people of the. ⁴ I wyll go downe with the, & wil brynge the vp also. And Ioseph shal laye his hande vpon thine eyes.

All his sayntes are in his hande, they shall set them selues downe at thy fete, and receaue of thy wordes. ⁴ Moses commaunded vs the lawe, which is the enheritaunce of the congregacion of Iacob. ⁵ And he was in the fulnesse of the kynge, & helde ye rulers of ye people together, with the trybes of Israel. ⁶ Let Ruben lyue, and not dye, and his people be fewe in nombre. ⁷ This is the blessynge of Iuda. And he sayde: LORDE heare the voyce of Iuda, and brynge him vnto his people: Let his hades multiplye him, and let him be helped fro his enemies. ⁸ And vnto Leui he sayde: Thy perfectnes and yi lighte be acordinge vnto the man of thy mercy, who thou hast tempted at Massa, whan ye stroue by the water of stryfe. ⁹ He that sayeth vnto his father and to his mother: I se him not: and to his brother, I knowe him not: and to his sonne, I wote not of him, those haue obserued thy wordes, and kepte yi couenaunt: ¹⁰ they shal teach Iacob thy iudgmentes, and Israel thy lawe: they shal laie incense before thy nose, & burntofferinges vpon thine altare. ¹¹ LORDE, blesse thou his power & accepte the workes of his handes: smyte the loynes of them yt ryse vp agaynst him, & of them that hate him, that they lifte not vp them selues. ¹² And to Ben Iamin he saide: The beloued of the LORDE shal dwell in hope on him: All the daye longe shal he wayte vpon him, and shal dwell betwene his shulders. ¹³ And to Ioseph he sayde: His londe lieth in the blessynge of the LORDE, there are noble frutes of heauen, of the dew, and of the depe that lyeth beneth: ¹⁴ There are noble frutes of the increase of the Sonne, and noble rype frutes of ye monethes: ¹⁵ And of ye toppes of the mountaynes of olde, and of the hilles allwaye, ¹⁶ and of the noble frutes of ye earth, and of the fulnesse therof.

These are the thousandes of Ephraim, and the thousandes of Manasse.

¹⁷ His bewtye is as a firstborne oxe, and his hornes are as ye hornes of an Vnicorne: with the same shal he pusshe the nacions together, euen vnto the endes of the worlde.

For they shal sucke the abundaunce of the see, and the treasures hyd in the sonde. ²⁰ And to Gad he sayde: Blessynge haue Gad, which maketh rowme. He dwelleth as a lyon, and spoyleth the arme and the toppe of the heade. ²¹ And he sawe his begynnynge, that ye heape of the teachers laye hydd there, and came with the rulers of the people, and executed the righteousnesse of the LORDE, and his iudgment on Israel. ²² And to Dan he sayde: Dan a yonge lyon, he shal flowe from Basan. ²³ And to Nephtali he saide: Nephtali shal haue abundaunce of pleasure, & shalbe full of the blessynge of the LORDE: his possession shalbe towarde the west and south. ²⁴ And to Asser he sayde: Asser be blessed wt sonnes, accepted be he with his brethren, and dyppe his fote in oyle. ²⁵ Yron and brasse be on thy shues. Thyne age be as thy youth. ²⁶ There is no God as the God of the iust. He that sytteth vpon heauen, be thy helpe. And his glory is in the cloudes, ²⁷ that is the dwellynge of God from the beginnynge, and vnder the armes of the worlde. And he shal dryue out thyne enemye before the, and saye: Be destroyed. ²⁸ And Israel shall dwell safe alone. The eye of Iacob shalbe vpon ye londe where corne and wine is, heauen also shal droppe with dewe. ²⁹ Happye art thou Israel, who is lyke vnto the? O thou people yt art saued by the LORDE, which is thy helpe, shylde, and the swerde of thy glorye. Thyne enemies shal pyne awaye, and thou shalt treade vpon the height of them.

¹⁴ and with him ten chefe prynces amonge the houses of their fathers, out of euery tribe in Israel one.

¹⁵ But he sayde: My LORDE, wherwithall shal I delyuer Israel? Beholde, my kynred is the smallest in Manasse, & I am the leest in my fathers house?

⁴⁴ And there fell of BenIamin eightene thousande men, which were all men of armes. ⁴⁵ Whan the remnaunt of BenIamin sawe that, they turned them and fled towarde the wildernesse vnto the stonye rocke of Rimon.

²² Samuel saide: Hath the LORDE pleasure in sacrifices and burntofferynges, as in obeynge the voyce of the LORDE? Beholde, obedience is better then offerynge, and to herken is better then the fat of rammes.

⁷ Then sayde Saul vnto his seruauntes that stode by him: Heare ye children of Iemini: Shal the sonne of Isai geue lodes and vynyardes vnto you all, & make you all captaynes ouer thousandes and ouer hudreds,

²³ Loke well and spye out all the places, where he hydeth him, and come agayne to me, whan ye are sure, and I will go with you. Yf he be in the londe, I wyl enquere after him amonge all the thousandes in Iuda.

⁵⁹ And these wete vp also, Mithel, Melath, Thel, Harso, Cherub, Addon and Immer. But they coulde not shewe their fathers house ner their sede, whether they were of Israel.

²⁵ and weyed them there the syluer and golde and vessels for the Heueofferinge vnto the house of oure God, which the kynge, and the lordes of his councell and prynces, and all Israel that were at hande, had geuen to the Heue offerynge: ²⁶ and there weyed I them vnder their hande sixe hundreth and fiftye talentes of syluer, and in syluer vessell an hundreth talentes, and in golde an hundreth talentes, ²⁷ twentye cuppes of golde of a thousande guldens, and two costly ornamentes of good brasse, as cleare as golde, ²⁸ and sayde vnto them: Ye are holy vnto the LORDE, therfore are the vessels holy also, and so is the syluer and golde that is geuen of a good wyll vnto the LORDE God of youre fathers: ²⁹ Watch ye therfore and kepe it, tyll ye weye it downe before the chefe prestes and Leuites, and awncient fathers of Israel at Ierusalem in the chestes of the house of the LORDE. ³⁰ Then toke the prestes and Leuites that weyed syluer and golde & vessell, to brynge it to Ierusalem vnto ye house of oure God.

²² And in the tyme of Eliasib. Ioiada, Iohanan and Iaddua, were the chefe fathers amonge the Leuites, and the prestes wrytte vnder the reigne of Darius ye Persian.

⁴⁷ In the tyme of Zorobabel and Nehemias, dyd all Israel geue porcios vnto the syngers and porters, euery daye his porcion, and they gaue thinges halowed vnto the Leuites, and the Leuites gaue thinges that were sanctified, vnto the childre of Aaron.

⁴ For there ye trybes go vp, euen the trybes of the LORDE: to testifie vnto Israel, to geue thanckes vnto the name of the LORDE.

³¹ The prophetes teach falsely, and the prestes folowe them, and my people hath pleasure therin. What will come therof at the last?

¹⁵ Therfore thus saieth the LORDE of hoostes concernynge the prophetes: Beholde, I wil fede them with wormwod, & make them dryncke the water of gall. For fro the prophetes of Ierusalem is the sicknes of Ypocrisie come in to all the londe.
