¹⁷ Thus shal ye saye vnto Ioseph: O forgeue thy brethren the offence and their synne, that they dyd so euell vnto the. O forgeue now this trespace of vs the seruauntes of thy fathers God. But Ioseph wepte, whan they spake so vnto him.

Aman was well content withall, and caused a galowe to be prepared.

¹⁰ So they hanged Aman on the galowe that he had made for Mardocheus. Then was the kynges wrath stylled.

²⁵ and how Hester wente and spake to the kynge, that thorow letters his wicked deuyce (which he ymagyned agaynst the Iewes) might be turned vpon his awne heade, and how he and his sonnes were hanged on the tre.

¹² Which destroyeth the deuyces of the sotyll, so that they are not able to perfourme the thynges that they take in hode: ¹³ which compaseth ye wyse in their owne craftynesse, and ouertroweth the councell of the wicked: ¹⁴ In so moch that they runne in to darcknesse by fayre daye, and grope aboute them at the noone daye, like as in the night.

¹⁶ Thus ye LORDE is knowne to execute true iudgment, whe the vngodly is trapped in the workes of his owne handes.

¹⁴ This thou seist, for thou considrest the mysery and sorowe: The poore geueth himselff ouer in to thy hande, and committeth him vnto the, for thou art the helper of the frendlesse. ¹⁵ Breake thou ye arme off the vngodly and malycious, search out the wickednesse which he hath done, that he maye perish. ¹⁶ The LORDE is kynge for euer, ye Heithen shal perish out off his londe.

¹⁸ Helpe the fatherlesse and poore vnto their right, that the vngodly be nomore exalted vpon earth.

⁷ For the LORDE is rightuous, ad he loueth rightuousnes, his countenaunce beholdeth the thige yt is iust.

⁵ Now for the troubles sake off the oppressed, & because of the complaynte of the poore, I wil vp (sayeth the LORDE) I wil helpe the, and set the at rest.

⁴ For thy louynge kyndnesse is better then life, my lyppes shal prayse the.

⁵ He is a father of ye fatherlesse, he is a defender of widdowes: eue God in his holy habitacio. ⁶ He is the God yt maketh me to be of one mynde in a house, & bryngeth ye presoners out of captiuite in due season, but letteth ye rennagates cotinue in scarcenesse.

⁵ I haue leaned vpo ye euer sens I was borne, thou art he that toke me out of my mothers wombe, therfore is my prayse allwaye of the.

¹³ O my God, make them like vnto a whele, and as the stuble before the wynde. ¹⁴ Like as a fyre that burneth vp the wodd, & as the flame that consumeth the mountaynes. ¹⁵ Persecute them euen so with thy tempest, & make them afrayed with thy storme. ¹⁶ Make their faces ashamed (o LORDE) yt they maye seke thy name. ¹⁷ Let the be cofounded & vexed euer more & more: Let the be put to shame & perish.

⁸ O LORDE God of hoostes, heare my prayer: herken o God of Iacob.

¹² For the LORDE God is a light and defence, the LORDE wil geue grace & worshipe, and no good thinge shal he witholde from them, that lyue a godly life. O LORDE God of hoostes, blessed is the man, yt putteth his trust in the.

² For I haue sayde: mercy shal be set vp for euer, thy faithfulnesse shalt thou stablish in the heauens.

³³ I wil vyset their offences with the rodde, and their synnes with scourges.

⁴⁵ That they might kepe his statutes, and obserue his lawes. Halleluya. Halleluya.

⁹ For he satisfied the emptie soule, & fylled the hongrie soule wt good. ¹⁰ Soch as sat in darcknesse and in the shadowe of death, beynge fast bounde in misery & yron.

¹⁴ He brought the out of darcknesse & out of the shadowe of death, & brake their bondes in sonder. ¹⁵ O that men wolde prayse the goodnesse of the LORDE, & the woders that he doth for the childre of men. ¹⁶ For he hath broken the gates of brasse, & smitte the barres of yron in sonder.

¹³ Thy kyngdome is an euerlastinge kyngdome, & thy dominion endureth thorow out all ages. ¹⁴ The LORDE vpholdeth all soch as shulde fall, and lifteth vp all those that be downe. ¹⁵ The eyes of all wayte vpon the, and thou geuest them their meate in due season. ¹⁶ Thou openest thine hade, and fyllest all thinges lyuynge with plenteousnesse.

¹² Prayse ye LORDE o Ierusale, prayse yi God o Sion.

⁵ Let them prayse the name of the LORDE, for he comaunded, & they were made. ⁶ He hath made the fast for euer and euer, he hath geue them a lawe which shal not be broke.

¹⁹ But ye waye of the vngodly is as the darcknesse, wherin me fall, or they be awarre.

²⁸ whan he hanged the cloudes aboue: whan he fastened the sprynges of the depe: ²⁹ Whan he shutt the see within certayne bowndes, that ye waters shulde not go ouer their marckes. When he layed the foundacions of the earth,

²⁵ The LORDE wyl breake downe ye house of ye proude, but he shal make fast ye borders of ye wyddowe.

²² Se yt thou robbe not ye poore because he is weake, and oppresse not ye simple in iudgment: ²³ for ye LORDE himself wyl defende their cause, and do violence vnto them yt haue vsed violence.

¹⁰ Remoue not ye olde lande marke, and come not within ye felde of the fatherlesse: ¹¹ For he yt deliuereth them is mightie, euen he shal defende their cause agaynst the.

⁷ Or dust be turned againe vnto earth from whence it came, and or the sprete returne vnto God, which gaue it.

²² Every man can eschue a persone moued in anger, for what doth he wysely?

⁴ For thou shalt breake the yocke of the peoples burthen: the staff of hys shulder, and the rod of his oppressoure, as in ye daye at Madia.

⁷ he shal make no ende to encrease the kyngdome and peace, and shal syt vpon the seate of Dauid and in his kyngdome, to set vp the same, to stablish it with equyte and rightuousnesse, from thence forth for euermore. This shal the gelousy of the LORDE of hoostes bringe to passe.

⁶ Crie out, and be glad, thou that dwellest in Sion, for greate is thy prince: the holy one of Israel.

³ Now the Egiptians are men, and not God, and their horses flesh and not sprete. And as soone as the LORDE stretcheth out his honde, then shal the helper fall, and he that shulde haue bene helped, and shal altogether be destroyed.

⁵ Then shal the eyes of the blinde be lightned, and the eares of the deaff opened.

⁶ And Esay gaue them this answere: Saie thus vnto youre lorde: thus saieth the LORDE: Be not afrayde of the wordes that thou hast herde, wherwith the kinge of Assirias seruauntes haue blasphemed me.

⁹ Go vp vnto the hill (o Sion) thou that bringest good tidinges, lift vp thy voyce with power, o thou preacher Ierusalem. Lift it vp without feare, and say vnto the cities of Iuda: Beholde, youre God:

¹⁶ I wil bringe the blinde into a strete, that they knowe not: and lede them in to a fotepath, that they are ignoraunt in. I shal make darknesse light before the, & the thinge yt is croked, to be straight. These thinges will I do, & not forget them.

¹⁸ Heare, o ye deaf men, and sharpen youre sightes to se (o ye blinde.)

⁷ O how bewtiful are the fete of the Embassitoure, yt bringeth the message fro the mountayne, & proclameth peace: yt brigeth the good tydinges, & preacheth health, & saieth vnto Sion: Thy God is the kinge.

¹ The sprete of the LORDE God is wt me, for ye LORDE hath anoynted me, & sent me, to preach good tydiges vnto the poore, yt I might bynde vp ye wounded hertes, yt I might preach delyueraunce to ye captyue, & open the preson to the that are bounde:

¹¹ As for their goddes, it maye well be sayde of the: they are goddes, that made nether heaue ner earth: therfore shal they perish fro the earth, and from all thinges vnder heauen. ¹² But (as for oure God) he made the earth with his power, and with his wisdome hath he fynished the whole compasse of the worlde, with his discrecion hath he spred out the heauens,

⁵ Thus saieth the LORDE: Cursed be the man that putteth his trust in man, ad that taketh flesh for his arme: and he, whose herte departeth from ye LORDE. ⁶ He shall be like the heeth, that groweth in the wildernes. As for the good thinge that is for to come, he shall not se it: but dwell in a drie place off the wildernes, in a salt and vnoccupied londe. ⁷ O Blissed is the man, that putteth his trust in the LORDE, and whose hope the LORDE is himself. ⁸ For he shalbe as a tre, that is planted by the water syde: which spredeth out the rote vnto moystnesse, whom the heate can not harme, when it commeth, but his leaues are grene. And though there growe but litle frute because off drouth, yet is he not carefull, but he neuer leaueth of to bringe forth frute.

¹⁴ I will poure plenteousnes vpon the hertes of the prestes, and my people shalbe satisfied with good thinges, saieth the LORDE.

¹⁷ O LORDE God, It is thou that hast made heauen and earth with thy greate power and hie arme, and there is nothinge to harde for ye.

¹¹ Thou shalt leaue thy fatherlesse children behinde the, and I will kepe them and thy wydowes shall take their comforth in me.

²⁰ The very breth of oure mouth; euen the anoynted LORDE himself shalbe take in oure synnes, of whom we saye: Vnder his shadowe we shal be preserued amonge the Heithen.

⁴⁴ In the dayes off these kynges, shall the God of heauen set vp an euerlastinge kyngdome which shall not perish, and his kyngdome shall not be geuen ouer to another people: Yee the same shall breake and destroye all these kyngdomes, but it shall endure for euer.

²³ but hast magnified thy selff aboue the LORDE off heauen, so that the vessels off his house were brought before the: that thou, and thy lordes, with thy quene and concubynes, might drynke wyne therout: And hast praysed the Idols of syluer and golde, copper and yron, off wodde & stone: As for the God, in whose honde consisteth thy breth ad all thy wayes: thou hast not loaued him.

²⁶ My commaundement is, in all my dominio and kyngdome, that men feare and stonde in awe off Daniels God: For he is the lyuinge God, which abydeth euer: his kyngdome shall not fayle, and his power is euerlastynge.

¹⁴ Then gaue he him power ad dignite regall, that all people, trybes and tunges shulde serue him. His power is an euerlastinge power, which shal neuer be put downe: & his kyngdome endureth vncorrupte.

⁴ I prayed before the LORDE my God, and knowleged, sayenge: O LORDE, thou greate & fearfull God, thou that kepest couenaunt and mercy with them, which loue the, and do thy commaundementes:

³ Assur shalbe no more oure helper, nether will we ryde vpon horses eny more. As for the workes of oure hondes, we wil nomore call vpon them: For it is thou that art oure God, thou shewest euer mercy vnto the fatherlesse.

¹⁷ Thus shal ye knowe, yt I the LORDE youre God dwell vpo my holy mount of Sion. Then shal Ierusale be holy, & there shal no straungers go thorow her eny more.

²⁰ Thou shalt kepe thy trust with Iacob, and thy mercy for Abraham, like as thou hast sworne vnto oure fathers longe agoo.

¹¹ Thou also thorow the bloude of thy couenaunt: shalt let thy presoners out of the pytte, wherin is no water. ¹² Turne you now to the stronge holde, ye that be in preson, & longe sore to be delyuered: And this daye I bringe the worde, that I wil rewarde the dubble agayne.

⁵ I will come & punysh you, & I myself wil be a swift wytnes agaynst the witches, agaynst the aduouterers, agaynst false swearers: yee ad agaynst those, that wrogeously kepe backe the hyrelynges dewty: which vexe the wyddowes & the fatherlesse, & oppresse the straunger, and feare not me, sayeth the LORDE of hoostes.

³⁰ And their eyes were opened. And Iesus charged the, sayinge: Se that no ma knowe of it.

⁵ The blynde se, and the lame go: the lepers are clensed, and ye deaf heare: the deed aryse ageyne, and the gospell is preached to the poore:

⁵³ He fylleth the hongrie with good thinges, and letteth the riche go emptye.

¹⁸ The sprete of the LORDE is with me, because he hath anoynted me: to preach the Gospell vnto ye poore hath he sent me: to heale the broken harted: to preach delyuerauce to the captyue, and sight to the blynde: and frely to set at liberty them that are brused:

¹⁷ And they ate, and were all satisfied. And there were taken vp of that remayned to them, twolue baskettes full of broken meate.

¹¹ and beholde, there was a woma, which had a sprete of infirmyte eightene yeares, and was croked, and coulde not well loke vp. ¹² Whan Iesus sawe her, he called her to him, and sayde vnto her: Woman, be delyuered from thy disease. ¹³ And he layed his handes vpo her, and immediatly she was made straight, and praysed God.

⁴¹ and sayde: What wilt thou, that I do vnto the? He sayde: LORDE, that I maye receaue my sight. ⁴² And Iesus sayde vnto him: Receaue thy sight, thy faith hath saued the.

³ All thinges were made by the same, and without the same was made nothinge that was made.

⁷ and sayde vnto him: Go thy waye to the pole of Syloha (which is interpretated, sent) and wash the. Then wete he his waye and wasshed him, and came seynge. ⁸ The neghbours and they that had sene him before, that he was a begger, sayde: Is not this he that sat, and begged? ⁹ Some sayde: It is he. Other sayde: he is like him. But he himself sayde: I am euen he. ¹⁰ Then sayde they vnto him: How are thine eyes opened? ¹¹ He answered, and sayde: The ma that is called Iesus, made claye, and anoynted myne eyes, and sayde: Go thy waye to the pole of Siloha, and wash the. I wente my waye, & washed me, and receaued my sight. ¹² Then sayde they vnto him: Where is he? He sayde: I can not tell. ¹³ Then brought they vnto the pharises, him that a litle before was blynde ¹⁴ It was the Sabbath, whan Iesus made the claye, and opened his eyes. ¹⁵ Then agayne the Pharises also axed him, how he had receaued his sight. He sayde vnto the: He put claye vpon myne eyes, and I wasshed me, & now I se. ¹⁶ Then sayde some of the pharises: This man is not of God, seynge he kepeth not ye Sabbath. But the other sayde: How can a synfull man do soch tokens? And there was a stryfe amonge the. ¹⁷ They sayde agayne vnto ye blynde: What sayest thou of him, that he hath opened thine eyes? He sayde: he is a prophet. ¹⁸ The Iewes beleued not hi, that he was blynde, and had receaued his sight, tyll they called the elders of him, that had receaued his sight, ¹⁹ and they axed them, and sayde: Is this youre sonne, whom ye saye, was borne blynde? How doth he now se then? ²⁰ His elders answered them, and sayde: We knowe, that this is oure sonne, and that he was borne blynde. ²¹ But how he now seyeth, we can not tell: or who hath opened his eyes, can we not tell. He is olde ynough himself, axe him, let him speake for him self. ²² This sayde his elders, because they feared the Iewes. For the Iewes had conspyred allready, that yf eny man dyd confesse that he was Christ, the same shulde be excomunicate. ²³ Therfore sayde his elders: He is olde ynough, axe him. ²⁴ Then called they the ma agayne yt was blynde, and sayde vnto him: Geue God ye prayse, we knowe that this man is a synner. ²⁵ He answered, & sayde: Whether he be a synner or no, I can not tell: one thinge am I sure off, that I was blynde, and now I se. ²⁶ The sayde they vnto him agayne: What dyd he vnto the? How opened he thine eyes? ²⁷ He answered them: I tolde you right now. Herde ye it not? What, wil ye heare it agayne? Will ye also be his disciples? ²⁸ Then rayted they him, and sayde: Thou art his disciple. ²⁹ We are sure that God spake wt Moses: As for this felowe, we know not whece he is. ³⁰ The man answered, and sayde vnto the: This is a maruelous thinge, that ye wote not whence he is, and he hath opened mine eyes. ³¹ For we knowe that God heareth not ye sinners: but yf eny ma be a fearer of God, and doth his will, him heareth he. ³² Sens ye worlde beganne was it not herde, that eny man opened the eyes of one that was borne blynde. ³³ Yf this man were not of God, he coulde haue done nothinge.

³⁴ Iesus answered the: Is it not wrytten in youre lawe: I haue sayde, Ye are Goddes?

²¹ He that hath my comaundementes, and kepeth them, the same is he that loueth me: and he that loueth me, shalbe loued of my father: & I wyl loue him, and wyl shewe myne awne self vnto him. ²² Iudas sayde vnto hi: (not that Iscarioth) LORDE, What is the cause the, that thou wilt shewe thy self vnto vs, and not vnto the worlde? ²³ Iesus answered, and sayde vnto him: He that loueth me, wyl kepe my worde, and my father wyl loue him: and we wyl come vnto him, and wyll make oure dwellynge with him.

²⁷ for the father himself loueth you, because ye haue loued me, & beleued that I am come out from God.

¹⁹ But the angell of ye LORDE by night opened the preson dores, and brought the out, and sayde:

¹⁵ and sayenge: Ye me, Why do ye this? We are mortall me also like vnto you, & preach vnto you ye Gospell, that ye shulde turne from these vayne thinges vnto ye lyuynge God, which made heaue and earth, and the see, and all that therin is,

²⁶ Sodenly was there a greate earth quake, so that the foundacions of the preson were shaken. And immediatly were all the dores open, & all their bondes lowsed

¹⁸ to ope their eyes, that they maye turne from the darknesse vnto the lighte, and from the power of ye deuell vnto God, that they maye receaue forgeuenesse of synnes, and the enheritaunce with them that are sanctified by faith in me.

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:

¹⁹ For the wyssdome off this worlde is foolishnes with God. For it is wrytten: He compaseth the wyse in their craftynesse.

⁶ Neuertheles God that comforteth the abiecte, comforted vs by the comynge of Titus.
