Hebrews 10 Cross References - Great

¹ For the lawe (hauynge the shadowe of good thynges to come, and not the very fasshion of the thinges them selues) can neuer with those sacrifices which they offer; yeare by yeare continually make the commers therunto parfayt. ² For wold not then those sacrifices haue ceased to haue bene offred, because that the offerers once purged shuld haue had no more conscience of synnes? ³ Neuerthelesse, in those sacrifyces, is there mencyon made of synnes euery yeare. ⁴ For the bloude of oxen and of goates can not take awaye synnes. ⁵ Wherfore, when he commeth into the worlde he sayth: Sacryfyce and offerynge thou woldest not haue: but a bodye hast thou ordeyned me: ⁶ Burnt offerynges also for synne hast thou not alowed. ⁷ Then sayd I: lo, I am here. In the begynnyng of the booke it is written of me, that I shuld do thy will, o God. ⁸ Aboue, when he sayeth: sacryfice & offeryng, & burnt sacryfyces and synne offerynges thou woldest not haue, nether hast thou alowed them (whiche yet are offered by the lawe) ⁹ then sayd he: Lo, I am here, to do thy wyll, o God: he taketh awaye the fyrst to stablisshe the latter, ¹⁰ by wych will we are made holy, euyn by the offeryng of the body of Iesu Christe once for all. ¹¹ And euery prest is ready dayly ministring and offryng often tymes one maner of oblacion, which can neuer take awaye synnes. ¹² But thys man after he hath offered one sacrifice for synnes, is set downe for euer on the ryght hand of God, ¹³ & from hence forth taryeth tyll his foes be made his fote stole. ¹⁴ For wt one offeringe hath he made parfecte for euer, them that are sanctyfyed. ¹⁵ The holy goost him self also beareth vs recorde, euen when he tolde before: ¹⁶ This is the testament that I wyll make vnto them: after those dayes (sayth the lorde) I will put my lawes in their hertes, & in their myndes will I write them, ¹⁷ & their synnes & iniquities will I remember nomore. ¹⁸ And where remission of these thynges is, ther is nomore offeryng for synne. ¹⁹ Seyng therfore brethren, that by the meanes of the bloud of Iesu we haue libertye to enter into the holy place, ²⁰ by the new & lyuing waye whych he hath prepared for vs, through the vayle (that is to saye, by his flesshe.) ²¹ And seing also that we haue an hye prest whych is ruler ouer the house of God, ²² let vs draw nye wt a true herte in a sure fayth, sprynckeled in our hertes & the euyll conscience put awaye & wesshed in our bodyes wt pure water: ²³ let vs kepe the profession of our hope, wt out waueryng (for he is faithfull that promysed) ²⁴ & let vs consider one another, to the intent that we maye prouoke vnto loue, & to good workes, ²⁵ not forsakynge the felishyppe that we haue among our selues, as the maner of some is: but let vs exhorte one another, & so moch the more, because ye se that the daye draweth nye. ²⁶ For yf we synne wyllfully after that we haue receaued the knowledge of the trueth, ther remayneth nomore sacryfyce for synnes, ²⁷ but a fearfull lokyng for iudgement, & violent fyre, whych shall deuoure the aduersaries. ²⁸ He that despiseth Moses lawe, dyeth wythout mercy vnder two or thre witnesses: ²⁹ how moch sorer (suppose ye) shall he be ponisshed which treadeth vnder fote the sonne of God: & counteth the bloude of the testament, wherwith he was sanctifyed, as an vnholy thyng, & doth dishonoure to the sprete of grace. ³⁰ For we knowe hym that hath sayd: It belongeth vnto me to take vengeaunce. I wyll recompence sayth the Lord. And agayne: the Lord shal iudge his people. ³¹ It is a fearfull thynge to fall into the handes of the lyuyng God. ³² Call to remembraunce the dayes that are passed, in the whych after ye had receaued lyght, ye endured a greate fyght of aduersities, ³³ partly whyle all men wondred & gased at you for the shame and tribulacyon on that was done vnto you: partly, whyle ye became companyons of them which so passed their tyme. ³⁴ For ye became parttakers also of the afflyccyons whych happened thorow my bondes, & toke in worth the spoylyng of your goodes, & that wyth gladnes: knowynge in your selues, how that ye haue in heauen a better & an enduring substaunce. ³⁵ Cast not awaye therfore your confydence, whych hath a great recompence of rewarde. ³⁶ For ye haue nede of pacyence, that after ye haue done the wyll of God, ye myght receaue the promes. ³⁷ For yet a very lytell whyle, & he that shall come wyll come, & wyll not tary. ³⁸ But the iust shall lyue by faith. And yf he withdrawe him selfe, my soule shall haue no pleasure in him. ³⁹ It is not we that withdrawe our selues vnto dampnacion, but we partayne vnto fayth, to the wynnynge of the soule.

¹⁷ which are shaddowes of thinges to come: but the body is in Chryst.

¹⁸ Then the commaundement that went afore, is disanulled, because of weaknes and vnproffytablenes. ¹⁹ For the lawe brought nothynge to perfeccion: but was an introduccyon to a better hope, by the whych we drawe nye vnto God.

⁵ offer gyftes whych serue vnto the ensample, and shadowe of heauenly thynges: euen as the answere of God was geuen vnto Moses, when he was about to fynyssh the tabernacle. Take hede (sayde he) that thou make all thinges accordinge to the patrone which is shewed to the in the mount.

⁸ Wherwith the holy goost thys signifyed, that the waye of holy thynges was not yet opened, whyll as yet the fyrst tabernacle was standyng. ⁹ Which was a symilitude for the tyme then present, in which were offered gyftes and sacrifices, that coulde not make the minister parfecte, as pertayning to the conscyence,

¹¹ But Christ beynge and hye Prest of good thynges to come, came by a greater & a more perfecte tabernacle, not made wyth handes: that is to saye, not of thys buylding,

²³ It is nede then, that the similitudes of heauenly thynges be purifyed wyth soch thynges: but that the heauenly thynges them selues be purifyed wt better sacrifyces then are those.

²⁵ not to offer hym selfe often as the hye prest entreth into the holy place euery yeare with straunge bloud,

³ Neuerthelesse, in those sacrifyces, is there mencyon made of synnes euery yeare. ⁴ For the bloude of oxen and of goates can not take awaye synnes.

¹¹ And euery prest is ready dayly ministring and offryng often tymes one maner of oblacion, which can neuer take awaye synnes. ¹² But thys man after he hath offered one sacrifice for synnes, is set downe for euer on the ryght hand of God, ¹³ & from hence forth taryeth tyll his foes be made his fote stole. ¹⁴ For wt one offeringe hath he made parfecte for euer, them that are sanctyfyed. ¹⁵ The holy goost him self also beareth vs recorde, euen when he tolde before: ¹⁶ This is the testament that I wyll make vnto them: after those dayes (sayth the lorde) I will put my lawes in their hertes, & in their myndes will I write them, ¹⁷ & their synnes & iniquities will I remember nomore. ¹⁸ And where remission of these thynges is, ther is nomore offeryng for synne.

¹² Loke how wyde also the east is from the west, so farre hath he set oure synnes from vs.

²⁵ Where as I yet, euen I am he onely, that for myne awne selfes sake do awaye thyne offences, and forget thy synnes: so that I will neuer thincke vpon them.

²² As for thyne offences, I haue dryuen them awaye lyke the cloudes, and thy synnes as the myst. Turne the agayne vnto me, for I haue redemed the.

¹⁹ he shal turne agayne, and be mercyfull to vs: he shal put downe oure wyckednesses, and cast all oure synnes into the botome of the see.

¹³ For yf the bloud of oxen and of gotes & the asshes of a yong kow, when it was sprinckcled, purifieth the vnclene, as touchyng the purifyinge of the flesshe: ¹⁴ how moch moare shall the bloud of Christ (which thorow the eternall sprete, offered him self without spot to God) pourge youre conscience from deed workes, for to serue the lyuinge God?

¹⁷ & their synnes & iniquities will I remember nomore.

¹⁰ And Aaron shall reconcile vpon the hornes of it once in a yeare: wt the bloude of the synneofferynge of reconcylynge: euen once in the yeare shall he reconcyle it thorow your generacions. It is most holy vnto the Lord.

⁶ And Aaron shall offer hys bullock for synne, and make an attonement for hym, and for hys house. ⁷ And he shall take the two goates, and present them before the Lorde at the dore of the tabernacle of wytnesse. ⁸ And Aaron shall cast lottes ouer the .ij. goates: one lotte shalbe for the Lorde, and the other for the scapegoate. ⁹ And Aaron shall brynge the goote vpon whych the Lordes lotte fell, and offer hym for synne. ¹⁰ But the goate on whych the lotte fell to scape, shall be sett alyue before the Lorde, to reconcyle wyth, and to let hym goo (as a scape goate) fre, into the wyldernesse. ¹¹ And Aaron shall brynge hys bullock for synne, and reconcyle for him selfe, and for hys house, and shall kyll hys bullock for synne.

²¹ and Aaron shall put both hys handes vpon the heed of the lyue goate, and confesse ouer hym all the mysdeades of the chyldren of Israell, and all their trespaces, in all their synnes: puttynge them vpon the heed of the goate, and sende hym awaye (by the hande of a conuenient man) into the wyldernesse. ²² And the goate shall bere vpon hym all theyr mysdeades vnto the wyldernesse, and he shall let the goate goo fre into the wyldernesse.

²⁹ And thys shalbe an ordinaunce for euer vnto you: that in the tenth daye of the seuenth moneth, ye humble youre soules, and do no worke at all: whether it be one of youre selues or a straunger that soiourneth amonge you, ³⁰ for that daye shall the prest make an attonement for you to clense you, and that ye maye be cleane from all youre synnes before the Lorde.

³⁴ And this shalbe an euerlastynge ordinaunce vnto you, that he make an attonement for the chyldren of Israel for all their synnes once a yere: & he dyd as the Lorde commaunded Moses.

²⁷ the tenth daye also of the selfe seuenth moneth, is a daye of reconcilynge, therfore shall it be an holy conuocacion vnto you, and ye shall humble your soules, and offer sacrifyce vnto the Lorde. ²⁸ Ye shall do no worke the same daye, for it is a daye of reconcylynge, to make an atonement for you before the Lorde your God.

⁷ And ye shall haue the tenth daye of that same seuenth moneth an holy conuocacyon: and ye shall humble youre soules, & shall do no maner worke therin. ⁸ But ye shall offre a burntofferynge vnto the Lorde for a swete sauoure: one bullocke, a ram, and .vij. lambes of a yere olde a pece, which shalbe vnto you, without faute. ⁹ Theyr meatoffering shalbe of floure mingled with oyle .iij. tenth deales to a bullock, and .ij. to a ram. ¹⁰ & a tenth deale vnto a lambe, thorowout the .vij. lambes. ¹¹ An he goate for synne, besyde the synoffering of atonement and dayly burntoffring, and the meate and drinck offeringes that longe to the same.

¹⁸ And she sayde vnto Elia: what haue I to do with the, O thou man of God? art thou come vnto me, to call my synne agayne to remembraunce, & to slaye my sonne?

²⁸ For this is my bloud (which is of the new testament) that is shed for many, for the remissyon of synnes.

⁷ But into the seconde, went the hye prest alone once euery yeare: not wyth out bloud which he offered for him selfe, and for the ignoraunces of the people.

⁸ I wyll not reproue the because of thy sacryfyces, or for thy burntoffrynges, because they were not allwaye before me. ⁹ I wyll take no bullock out of thy house, ner he goates out of thy foldes. ¹⁰ For all the beastes of the forest are myne, & so are the catell vpon a thousande hylles. ¹¹ I knowe all the foules vpon the mountaynes, & the wylde beastes of the feld are in my syght. ¹² If I be hongrye I wyll not tell the: for the whole worlde is myne, and all that therin is.

¹⁶ For thou desyrest no sacrifyce, els wolde I geue it the: but thou delytest not in burntofferynge.

¹¹ Why offre ye so many sacrifices vnto me saith Lorde? I am full of the brentoffrynges of wethers, and of the fatnesse of fedbeastes. I haue no pleasure in the bloud of bullokes, lambes and goates. ¹² When ye come to apeare before me, who requireth this of you to treade within my porches? ¹³ Therfore offre me no mo oblacions, for it is but lost laboure. Incense is an abhominable thinge vnto me. I Maye not awaye with youre newe moones, your Sabbathes & gatheringe togyther at the solempne dayes. ¹⁴ I hate your newe mone dayes & solempne feastes, euen fro my very hert. I can not awaye wt suche vanitie & holdinge in of the people. ¹⁵ They lye vpon me as a burthen, and I am wery of beringe them. Whan ye holde out your handes, I will turne myne eyes from you. And though ye make many prayers, yet wil I heare nothynge at all, seyng your handes are ful of bloude.

³ For who so slayeth an oxe for me, doth me so greate dishonoure, as he that kylleth a man. He that kylleth a shepe for me, knetcheth a dogge. He that bryngeth me meatoffrynges, offreth swynes bloude: Who so maketh me a memoryall of incense, prayseth the thynge that is vnryght. Yet take they soch wayes in hande, and their soule delyteth in these abhominacyons.

²⁰ Wherfore, bryng ye me incense from Saba, & swete smellyng Calamus from farre countrees? Your burnt offerynges dysplease me, & I reioyce not in your sacrifyces.

²¹ Thus sayeth the Lorde of Hostes the God of Israel: Heape vp your burnt offrynges wyth your sacrifyces, and eate the fleshe. ²² For when I brought youre fathers out of Egypt, I spake no worde vnto them of burnt offrynges & sacryfyces:

⁶ For I haue pleasure in louyng kyndnesse and not in offringe: yee, in the knowledge of God, more then in burntsacrifyce.

² Take these wordes with you, when ye turne to the Lorde, and saye vnto hym: O, forgeue vs all oure synnes, receaue vs graciously, & then wyll we offre the bullockes of oure lyppes vnto the:

²¹ I hate and abhorre your holy dayes, & where as ye cense me when ye come together, I wyll not accepte it. ²² And though ye offre me brent offrynges and meat offrynges, yet haue I no pleasure therin. As for your fat thanckofferynges. I wyll not loke vpon them:

⁶ What acceptable thinge shall I offre vnto the Lord? shal I bowe my knee to the hie God? Shall I come before hym with brentoffrynges, and wyth calues of a yeare olde? ⁷ Hath the Lord a pleasure in many thousand rammes, or innumerable streames of oyle? Or shall I geue my fyrst borne for myne offences, & the frute of my body for the synne of my soule? ⁸ I will shewe the, O man, what is good, & what the Lorde requyreth of the Namely, to do right, to haue pleasure in louinge kyndnesse, to be lowly, & to walcke wt thy God,

³³ And to loue hym wyth all the herte, and wyth all the mynde, & wyth all the soule, & wyth all the strength: and to loue a mans neyghbour as hym selfe, is a greater thynge, then all burt offerynges and sacrifyces.

²⁹ The nexte daye, Iohn seeth Iesus comminge vnto hym, and sayeth beholde the lambe of God, whych taketh awaye the synne of the worlde.

²⁷ And thys is my couenaunt vnto them, when I shall take awaye their synnes.

⁹ Which was a symilitude for the tyme then present, in which were offered gyftes and sacrifices, that coulde not make the minister parfecte, as pertayning to the conscyence,

¹² nether by the bloude of goates & calues: but by hys awne bloude he entred in once into the holy place, and founde eternall redempcyon. ¹³ For yf the bloud of oxen and of gotes & the asshes of a yong kow, when it was sprinckcled, purifieth the vnclene, as touchyng the purifyinge of the flesshe:

⁸ Aboue, when he sayeth: sacryfice & offeryng, & burnt sacryfyces and synne offerynges thou woldest not haue, nether hast thou alowed them (whiche yet are offered by the lawe)

¹¹ And euery prest is ready dayly ministring and offryng often tymes one maner of oblacion, which can neuer take awaye synnes.

⁵ And ye knowe, that he appeared, to take awaye oure synnes, and in him is no synne.

¹⁵ I will also put enemytie betwene the & the woman, betwene thy sede and hyr sede: The same shall treade downe thy head, and thou shalt treade vpon hys hele.

⁶ Yf I wolde declare them, and speake of them, they shulde be moo then I am able to expresse. ⁷ Sacrifice and meat offerynge thou woldest not haue, but myne eares hast thou opened: burntofferynges and sacrifice for synne hast thou not required. Then sayd I: Lo, I come. ⁸ In the volume of the boke it is written of me, that I shulde fulfyll thy will, O my God: I am content to do it: yee, thy lawe is wythin my hert.

⁸ I wyll not reproue the because of thy sacryfyces, or for thy burntoffrynges, because they were not allwaye before me. ⁹ I wyll take no bullock out of thy house, ner he goates out of thy foldes. ¹⁰ For all the beastes of the forest are myne, & so are the catell vpon a thousande hylles. ¹¹ I knowe all the foules vpon the mountaynes, & the wylde beastes of the feld are in my syght. ¹² If I be hongrye I wyll not tell the: for the whole worlde is myne, and all that therin is. ¹³ Thinkest thou, that I wyll eat bulles flesh and drincke the bloud of goates? ¹⁴ Offre vnto God thanckesgeuynge, and paye thy vowes vnto the most hyest. ¹⁵ And call vpon me in the tyme of trouble, so wyll I heare the, and thou shalt prayse me. ¹⁶ But vnto the vngodly sayed God. Why doest thou preach my lawes, & takest my couenaunt in thy mouth? ¹⁷ Where as thou hatest to be refourmed, & hast cast my wordes behynd the? ¹⁸ Whan thou sawest a thefe, thou consentedest vnto hym, and hast bene partaker wyth the aduouterers. ¹⁹ Thou hast let thy mouth speake wickednesse, and with thy tong thou hast set forth disceat. ²⁰ Thou sattest and spakest agaynst thy brother, yee, & hast sclaundred thine awne mothers sonne. ²¹ These thynges hast thou done, & I helde my tonge: & thou thoughtest that I am euen soch a one as thy selfe: but I wyll reproue the, and set before the, the thinges that thou hast done. ²² O consydre this, ye that forget God: lest I plucke you awaye, and there be none to delyuer you. ²³ Who so offreth me thanckes and prayse, he honoureth me: and to hym that ordreth hys conuersacyon ryght wyll I shewe the saluacyon of God.

¹¹ Why offre ye so many sacrifices vnto me saith Lorde? I am full of the brentoffrynges of wethers, and of the fatnesse of fedbeastes. I haue no pleasure in the bloud of bullokes, lambes and goates.

¹⁴ And therfore the Lord shall geue you a token: Behold, a vyrgin shall conceaue and beare a sonne, and (thou hys mother) shalt cal his name Emanuel.

²² Howe longe wilt thou go astraye, O thou shrynking daughter? For the Lord wyll worke a newe thing vpon earth. A woman shall compasse a man.

²⁰ But whyll he thus thought, beholde, the aungell of the Lorde appeared vnto hym in slepe, saying: Ioseph, thou sonne of Dauid: feare not to take vnto the Mary thy wyfe. For that which is conceaued in her, cometh of the holy ghost. ²¹ She shall brynge forth a sonne, and thou shalt cal hys name Iesus. For he shall saue his people from theyr synnes. ²² Al this was done, that it might be fulfilled, which was spoken of the Lord by the prophet, saying: ²³ Behold, a mayd shalbe wt chylde, & shall bring forth a sonne, & they shall call his name Emanuel, which yf a man interpret, it is asmoch to say as God with vs.

³ & sayde vnto hym: Art thou he that shall come: or do we loke for another.

³⁵ And the angell answered, & sayde vnto her. The holy goost shall come vpon the, and the power of the hyest shall ouer shaddowe the. Therfore also that holy thynge which shalbe borne, shalbe called the sonne of God.

¹⁹ And Iohn called vnto him two of his disciples, & sent them to Iesus, saying: Art thou he that shuld come: or shall we looke for another?

¹⁴ And the same worde became flesshe, and dwelt amonge vs: and we sawe the glory of it, as the glory of the onely begotten sonne of the father, full of grace and trueth.

⁴ But when the tyme was full come, God sent hys sonne, made of a woman, and made bonde vnto the lawe,

¹⁶ And without doute great is that mystery of godlynes: God was shewed in the flesshe, was iustifyed in the sprete, was sene amonge the Angels, was preached vnto the gentyls, was beleued on in the worlde, and receaued vp in glory.

⁶ And agayne, when he bringeth in the fyrst begotten sonne into the worlde, he sayth. And let all the angels of God worshyppe hym.

¹⁴ For as moch then as the chyldren are partetakers of flesshe and bloud, he also him selfe lykewyse toke parte with them that (thorowe deeth) he myght expell hym that had lordshyppe ouer deeth, that is to saye the deuyll,

³ For euery hye prest is ordeyned to offer gyftes and sacrifices: wherfore it is of necessite, that this man haue some what also to offer.

⁷ Then sayd I: lo, I am here. In the begynnyng of the booke it is written of me, that I shuld do thy will, o God.

¹⁰ by wych will we are made holy, euyn by the offeryng of the body of Iesu Christe once for all.

²⁴ whych hys awne selfe bare our synnes in his body on the tree, that we beyng delyuered from synne, shuld lyue vnto ryghteousnes. By whose strypes ye were healed.

² Herby shall ye knowe the sprete of God. Euery sprete that confesseth that Iesu Christ is come in the fleshe is of God. ³ And euery sprete which confesseth not that Iesus Christ is come in the flesshe, is not of God. And this is that sprete of Antichrist, of whom ye haue hearde, howe that he shulde come: and euen now alredy is he in the worlde.

⁷ For many deceauers are entred into the worlde, whych confesse not that Iesus Christ is come in the fleshe. This is a deceauer and an Antichrist.

¹ And the Lorde called Moses, & spake vnto hym oute of the tabernacle of witnesse sayinge. ² Speake vnto the chyldren of Israel, and thou shalt saye vnto them. Yf a man of you brynge a sacrifyce vnto the Lorde, ye shall brynge youre sacrifyce from amonge these catell, euen from amonge the oxen and the shepe. ³ Yf hys sacrifyce be a burntofferynge, let hym offre a male of the oxen without blemyshe, and brynge hym (of hys own voluntary wyll) vnto the dore of the Tabernacle of witnesse before the Lorde. ⁴ And he shal put hys hande vpon the heade of the brent sacrifyce, and it shalbe accepted for him, to be hys attonement. ⁵ And he shall kyll the calfe of the droue before the Lord. And the prestes Aarons sonnes, shall brynge the bloude, and sprynckle it rounde aboute vpon the altare, that is by the dore of the Tabernacle of witnesse. ⁶ And then shall he slaye the burntofferynge, and hewe hym in peces.

¹¹ But the Lordes delyte is in them that feare hym, and put their trust in hys mercy.

¹⁰ Yee, what is he amonge you, that wyl do so moch as to shut the dores, or to kindle the fyre vpon myne aulter for naught? I haue no pleasure in you, sayeth the Lord of hostes: and as for the meatoffringe, I wyl not accepte it at youre hande.

¹⁷ And loo, there came a voyce from heauen saienge. Thys is my beloued sonne, in whom I am well pleased.

² and walke ye in loue euen as Christ loued vs, and gaue him selfe for vs an offerynge and a sacrifyce of a swete sauer to God

¹⁸ Neuertheles I receaued all, and haue plentie. I was euen fylled after that I receaued of Epaphroditus the thinges, which were sent from you, an odoure of a swete smell a sacrifyce accepted and pleasaunt to God.

⁴ For the bloude of oxen and of goates can not take awaye synnes.

³¹ As for the rounde compase of thys worlde, I make it ioyfull: for my delyte is to be amonge the chyldren of men.

² Take a boke, and wryte therin all the wordes, that I haue spoken to the, agaynst Israel agaynst Iuda, and agaynst all the people, from the tyme that I beganne for to speake vnto the (in the raygne of Iosiah) vnto thys daye.

³⁴ Iesus sayeth vnto them: my meate is to do the will of him that sent me, & to fynisshe his worcke.

³⁰ I can of myne awne selfe do nothing. As I heare, I iudge, and my iudgment is iust, because I seke not myne awne wyll, but the wyll of the father whych hath sent me

³⁸ For I came downe from heauen: not to do that I will, but that he will, whych hath sent me.

⁹ then sayd he: Lo, I am here, to do thy wyll, o God: he taketh awaye the fyrst to stablisshe the latter, ¹⁰ by wych will we are made holy, euyn by the offeryng of the body of Iesu Christe once for all.

⁵ Wherfore, when he commeth into the worlde he sayth: Sacryfyce and offerynge thou woldest not haue: but a bodye hast thou ordeyned me:

⁷ For yf that fyrst testament had bene soch, that no faute coulde haue bene founde in it, then shulde no place haue bene sought for the seconde. ⁸ For in rebukynge them, he sayth vnto them. Beholde the dayes come (sayth the Lord) and I wyll fynyssh vpon the house of Israel, and vpon the house of Iuda, ⁹ a new testament: not like the testament that I made with theyr fathers in that daye, when I toke them by the handes, to leade them out of the land of Egypte. For they contynued not in my testament, and I regarded them not sayth the Lord. ¹⁰ For this is the testament, that I wyll make wt the house of Israel: After those dayes (sayth the Lord) I wyll put my lawes in their myndes, and in their hertes I will write them, and I wylbe their God, and they shalbe my people. ¹¹ And they shall not teach euery man hys neyghboure, and euery man hys brother, saying: knowe the Lord: for they shall knowe me, from the least to the moste of them: ¹² For I wilbe mercyfull ouer their vnrightewesnes, and their synnes & their iniquities will I thinke vpon nomore. ¹³ In that he sayth a new testament, he hath worne out the olde, For that which is worne out & wexed olde, is redy to vanyshe awaye.

¹¹ But Christ beynge and hye Prest of good thynges to come, came by a greater & a more perfecte tabernacle, not made wyth handes: that is to saye, not of thys buylding, ¹² nether by the bloude of goates & calues: but by hys awne bloude he entred in once into the holy place, and founde eternall redempcyon.

²⁷ Where as he sayth: yet once more, it signifyeth the remouyng awaye of those thynges which are shaken as of thinges which haue ended their course: that the thynges which are not shaken, maye remayne. ²⁸ Wherefore, yf we receaue the kyngdome which can not be moued, we haue grace, wherby we maye so serue God, and that we maye please hym with reuerence and godly feare.

¹ In that tyme shall the house of Dauid and the cytesyns of Ierusalem haue an open well, to wash of synne and vnclennesse.

¹⁹ & for their sakes sanctifie I my selfe, that they also myght be sanctifyed thorowe the treuth.

³⁴ but one of the soudiers wt a speare, thrust him into the syde, and forth with came ther out bloude and water.

³⁰ And of hym are ye, in Chryst Iesu, whych of God is made vnto vs, wysdome, & rightwesnes, and sanctifyinge, and redempcyon.

¹¹ And soch were some of you, but ye are wasshed: but ye are sanctifyed: but ye are iustifyed by the name of the Lorde Iesus, & by the sprete of oure God.

¹¹ For both he that sanctifyeth and they which are sanctyfyed, are all of one. For whych causes sake he is not a shamed to call them brethren,

²⁷ Which nedeth not dayly (as yonder hye prestes) to offer vp sacrifice. Fyrst for his awne synnes and then for the peoples synnes. For that dyd he once, when he offered vp him self.

¹² nether by the bloude of goates & calues: but by hys awne bloude he entred in once into the holy place, and founde eternall redempcyon.

²⁶ for then must he haue often offered sence the worlde began. But now in the ende of the worlde, hath he appeared once, to put sinne to flight by the offerynge vp of him selfe.

²⁸ euen so Christ was once offered, to take awaye the sinnes of many, & vnto them that loke for hym shall he appeare agayne without synne vnto saluacyon.

¹² But thys man after he hath offered one sacrifice for synnes, is set downe for euer on the ryght hand of God,

¹⁴ For wt one offeringe hath he made parfecte for euer, them that are sanctyfyed.

²⁰ by the new & lyuing waye whych he hath prepared for vs, through the vayle (that is to saye, by his flesshe.)

¹² Therfore Iesus also to sanctifye the people with hys awne bloud, suffered without the gate.

⁶ This Iesus Christ is he that cam by water & bloud, not by water onely: but by water and bloud. And it is the sprete that beareth wytnes, because the sprete is trueth.

³⁸ This is that which thou shalt offer vpon the aulter: euen two lambes of one yeare olde, daye by daye continually: ³⁹ the one thou shalt offer in the mornyng, and the other at euen.

³ And thou shalt saye vnto them: This is the offering which ye shall offer vnto the Lord .ij. lambes of a yere olde without spot daye by daye, for a continuall burntoffering.

²⁴ After this maner ye shall offre thorowout the .vij. dayes: the fode of the sacrifyce for a swete sauoure vnto the Lord. And it shalbe done besyde the dayly burntoffering and his drinckofferyng.

⁶ besyde the daylye burntoffering of the moneth & his meatoffering, & besyde the dayly burntofferyng & his meatofferyng, and the drynckofferinges of the same, which must be done according vnto the maner of them for a sauoure of swetnes of the sacrifyce of the Lorde.

⁸ I wyll not reproue the because of thy sacryfyces, or for thy burntoffrynges, because they were not allwaye before me. ⁹ I wyll take no bullock out of thy house, ner he goates out of thy foldes. ¹⁰ For all the beastes of the forest are myne, & so are the catell vpon a thousande hylles. ¹¹ I knowe all the foules vpon the mountaynes, & the wylde beastes of the feld are in my syght. ¹² If I be hongrye I wyll not tell the: for the whole worlde is myne, and all that therin is. ¹³ Thinkest thou, that I wyll eat bulles flesh and drincke the bloud of goates?

⁴ The resydue of that holy grounde shalbe the prestes, which do seruyce in the sanctuary of the Lorde, and goo in before the Lorde to serue hym, that they maye haue rowme to dwell in.

¹¹ Yee, it grewe vp vnto the prynce of the hoost, from whom the daylye offerynge was taken, and the place of hys Sanctuary casten downe.

²¹ yee, whyle I was yet speakynge in my prayer, beholde, the man Gabriel. (whom I had sene afore in the visyon) came flyinge to me, and touched me aboute the offering tyme in the euenynge.

²⁷ He shall make a stronge bonde with many, for the space of a weke: & when the weke is halfe gone, he shall put downe the slayne and meatoffringe. And in the temple there shalbe an abhominable desolacyon, tyll it haue destroyed all. And it is concluded, that this wastynge shall contynue vnto the ende.

³¹ He shall set myghtye men to vnhalowe the Sanctuary of strength, to put downe the daylye offeringe, and to set vp the abhominable desolacyon.

¹¹ And from the tyme forth that the daylye offerynge shalbe put downe & the abhominable desolation sett vp, there shalbe a .M.CCXC: daies

⁹ (accordyng to the custome of the prestes office) hys lot fell to burne incence. ¹⁰ And he went into the temple of the Lorde, & the whoale multitude of the people were without in prayer, whill the incense was a burninge.

¹ For euery hye preste that is taken from amonge men, is ordeyned for men, in thynges pertaynynge to God to offer gyftes and sacrifyces for synne,

¹ For the lawe (hauynge the shadowe of good thynges to come, and not the very fasshion of the thinges them selues) can neuer with those sacrifices which they offer; yeare by yeare continually make the commers therunto parfayt.

³³ Sence now that he by the ryght hande of God exalted is, and hath receaued of the father the promyse of the holy Goost, he hath sheed forth thys which ye now se and heare. ³⁴ For Dauid is not ascendyd into heuen: but he sayeth: The Lord sayde to my Lorde: syt thou on my ryght hand,

³⁴ who is he that can condempne? it is Chryst which dyed, yee, rather which is rysen agayne, which is also on the ryght hande of God, and maketh intercessyon for us.

¹ If ye be then rysen agayne with Chryst, seke those thynges which are aboue, where Chryst sytteth on the ryght hande of God.

³ Which (sonne) beinge the bryghtnes of his glory, and that very ymage of his substance rulynge all thynges with the worde of hys power, hath by hys awne person pourged oure synnes, and sytteth on the ryght hande of the maiestye on hye:

¹ Of the thynges which we haue spoken, thys is the pyth: that we haue soch an hye preste as sytteth on the ryght hande of the seate of maiestye in heauen,

¹ A Psalme of Dauid. The Lorde sayde vnto my Lorde: Syt thou on my ryght hand, vntill I make thine enemyes thy fotestole.

⁴⁴ In the dayes of these kynges, shall the God of heauen set vp an euerlasting kyngdome whych shall not perish, & his kyngdome shal not be geuen ouer to another people: yee, the same shall breake & destroye all these kyngdomes, but it shall endure for euer.

⁴⁴ The Lord sayd vnto my Lorde syt the on my ryght hande tyll I make thyne enemyes thy foote stoole.

³⁶ for Dauid him selfe inspired wt the holy goost, sayd: The Lorde sayde to my Lorde, syt on my ryght hande tyll I make thyne enemyes thy fote stole.

⁴³ tyll I make thyne enemyes thy fote stole.

³⁵ vntyll I make thy fooes thy fote stole.

²⁵ For he must raygne tyll he haue put all his enemyes vnder his fete.

¹³ Unto whych of the angels sayde he at eny tyme: Syt on my ryght hande, tyll I make thyne enemyes thy fote stole?

³² And now brethren, I commende you to God and to the worde of his grace, which is able to build farther, & to geue you an inheritaunce amonge all them which are sanctifyed

¹³ euen at myddaye. (O kyng) I sawe in the waye a lyght from heauen aboue the bryghtnes of the sonne shyne rounde about me, and them whych iorneyed wyth me.

¹⁶ that I shuld be the minister of Iesu Christ amonge the Gentyls, & shuld minyster the Gospell of God, that the offeryng of the gentyls myght be acceptable, & sanctified by the holy ghost.

² Unto the congregacyon of God whych is at Corynthum. To them that are sanctifyed by Christ Iesu, called saynctes, with all that call on the name of oure Lorde Iesus Chryst in euery place, ether of theirs or of oures.

²⁶ to sanctifye it, and clensed it in the fountayne of water thorow the worde,

¹³ For when God made promes to Abraham because he had none greater to sweare by he sware by him selfe, ¹⁴ sayinge: Surely I will blesse the, and multiplie the in dede.

¹⁹ For the lawe brought nothynge to perfeccion: but was an introduccyon to a better hope, by the whych we drawe nye vnto God.

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

¹⁰ wyth onely meates & drinckes, & diuers wasshinges and iustifyinges of the fleshe, whych were ordeyned vntyll the tyme of reformacyon.

¹⁴ how moch moare shall the bloud of Christ (which thorow the eternall sprete, offered him self without spot to God) pourge youre conscience from deed workes, for to serue the lyuinge God?

¹ Iudas the seruaunt of Iesus Christ the brother of Iames. To them which are called, and sanctifyed in God the father, and preserued in Iesu Christ.

² the sprete of the Lorde spake by me, & his worde was in my tonge.

³⁰ And many yeares dyddest thou forbeare them, & testifyedst vnto them thorow thy sprete, euen by the hande of thy prophetes, and yet wolde they not heare. Therfore gauest thou them into the hande of the nacions in the landes.

²⁶ But when the comforter is come, whom I will sende vnto you from the father (euen the sprete of treuth, which proceadeth of the father) he shall testifye of me.

²⁵ And when they agreed not amonge them selues, they departed, after that Paul had spoken one worde: well spake the holy ghost by Esay the prophet vnto oure fathers,

³ howe shall we escape, yf we despyse so great saluacyon, which at the fyrst began to be preached of the Lorde hym selfe, and was confirmed vnto vs warde, by them that hearde it? ⁴ God bearynge wytnes therto, both with sygnes & wonders also & with diuers myracles, & gyftes of the holy gooste, accordynge to hys awne wyll.

⁷ Wherfore (as the holy goost sayth:) to daye yf ye wyll heare hys voyce,

⁸ Wherwith the holy goost thys signifyed, that the waye of holy thynges was not yet opened, whyll as yet the fyrst tabernacle was standyng.

¹¹ searchyng when or at what tyme the sprete of Chryst (whych was in them) shuld sygnifye, whych sprete testifyed before, the passyons that shuld happen vnto Chryst, & the glory that shulde folowe after, ¹² vnto whych Prophetes it was also declared, that not vnto them selues, but vnto vs, they shulde minyster the thynges whych are now shewed vnto you of them, whych (by the holy goost sent downe from heauen) haue in the Gospell preached vnto you the thynges, whych the angels desyre to beholde.

²¹ For the scripture came neuer by the wyll of man: but holy men of God spake, as they were moued by the holy goost.

⁷ Lett hym that hath eares, heare what the sprete sayth vnto the congregacyons. To hym that ouercommeth, wyll I geue to eate of the tre of lyfe, which is in the myddes of the Paradyse of God.

¹¹ Let hym that hath eares, heare, what the sprete sayth to the congregacyons. He that ouercommeth, shall not be hurt of the seconde deeth.

¹⁷ Let hym that hath eares, heare, what the sprete sayth vnto the congregacyons. To hym that ouercommeth, wyll I geue to eate Manna that is hyd, & wyll geue hym a whyte stone, & in the stone a newe name wrytten, which no man knoweth, sauynge he that receaueth it.

²⁹ Let hym that hath eares, heare, what the sprete sayth to the congregacyons.

⁶ Let hym that hath eares, heare, what the sprete sayth vnto the congregacyons.

¹³ Let hym that hath eares, heare, what the sprete sayth vnto the congregacyons.

²² Lett hym that hath eares heare, what the sprete sayth vnto the congregacyons.

¹⁰ And I fell at his fete, to worshippe him. And he sayde vnto me: se thou do it not. For I am thy felow seruaunt, & one of thy brethren, euen of them that haue the testimony of Iesus. Worshyppe God. For the testimony of Iesus is the sprete of prophesy.

³³ But this shalbe the couenaunt that I wyll make with the house of Israel after those dayes, sayth the Lorde. I will plante my lawe in the inward partes of them, and wryte it in their hertes, & wilbe their God, and they shalbe my people. ³⁴ And from thens forth, shall no man teach his neyghbour or his brother, & saye: knowe the Lorde. But they shall all knowe me from the lowest vnto the hyest, sayth the Lorde. For I will forgeue their mysdedes, and will neuer remembre their synnes eny more.

⁸ For in rebukynge them, he sayth vnto them. Beholde the dayes come (sayth the Lord) and I wyll fynyssh vpon the house of Israel, and vpon the house of Iuda, ⁹ a new testament: not like the testament that I made with theyr fathers in that daye, when I toke them by the handes, to leade them out of the land of Egypte. For they contynued not in my testament, and I regarded them not sayth the Lord. ¹⁰ For this is the testament, that I wyll make wt the house of Israel: After those dayes (sayth the Lord) I wyll put my lawes in their myndes, and in their hertes I will write them, and I wylbe their God, and they shalbe my people. ¹¹ And they shall not teach euery man hys neyghboure, and euery man hys brother, saying: knowe the Lord: for they shall knowe me, from the least to the moste of them: ¹² For I wilbe mercyfull ouer their vnrightewesnes, and their synnes & their iniquities will I thinke vpon nomore.

³⁴ And from thens forth, shall no man teach his neyghbour or his brother, & saye: knowe the Lorde. But they shall all knowe me from the lowest vnto the hyest, sayth the Lorde. For I will forgeue their mysdedes, and will neuer remembre their synnes eny more.

¹² For I wilbe mercyfull ouer their vnrightewesnes, and their synnes & their iniquities will I thinke vpon nomore.

² For wold not then those sacrifices haue ceased to haue bene offred, because that the offerers once purged shuld haue had no more conscience of synnes?

² by whom also it chaunsed vnto vs to be brought in thorow fayth, vnto thys grace, wherin we stande, and reioyce in hope of the glory of God.

¹⁵ they are the sonnes of God. For ye haue not receaued the sprete of bondage to feare eny mor are, but ye haue receaued the sprete of adopcyon, wherby we crye: Abba father.

⁶ Because ye are sonnes, God hathe sent the sprete of hys sonne into oure hertes, cryinge: Abba father. ⁷ Wherfore nowe, thou art not a seruaunt: but a sonne. If thou be a sonne, thou arte also an heyre of God, thorowe Christ.

¹⁸ For thorowe hym we both haue an intraunce, in one sprete vnto the father.

¹² by whom we haue boldnesse and entraunce with the confidence which is by the fayth of hym.

⁷ For God hath not geuen to vs the sprete of feare: but of power, and of loue, and of sobrenes.

¹⁶ Let vs therfore go boldely vnto the seate of grace, that we maye obtayne mercy, and fynde grace to helpe in tyme of nede.

³ But within the seconde vayle was there a tabernacle, whych is called holyest of all,

⁷ But into the seconde, went the hye prest alone once euery yeare: not wyth out bloud which he offered for him selfe, and for the ignoraunces of the people. ⁸ Wherwith the holy goost thys signifyed, that the waye of holy thynges was not yet opened, whyll as yet the fyrst tabernacle was standyng.

²³ It is nede then, that the similitudes of heauenly thynges be purifyed wyth soch thynges: but that the heauenly thynges them selues be purifyed wt better sacrifyces then are those. ²⁴ For Christ is not entred into the holy places that are made wyth handes (whych are symilitudes of true thynges) but is entred into very heauen, for to appeare now in the syght of God for vs: ²⁵ not to offer hym selfe often as the hye prest entreth into the holy place euery yeare with straunge bloud,

²⁸ Wherefore, yf we receaue the kyngdome which can not be moued, we haue grace, wherby we maye so serue God, and that we maye please hym with reuerence and godly feare.

¹ My lytell chyldren, these thinges write I vnto you, that ye synne not. And yf eny man synne, we haue an aduocate wyth the father, Iesus christ, the ryghteous: ² & he it is that obtayneth grace for oure synnes, not for oure synnes onely: but also for the synnes of all the worlde.

¹⁹ Herby we knowe, that we are of the veritie & can quyet oure hertes before hym. ²⁰ For yf oure herte condempne vs, God is gretter then oure herte, and knoweth all thinges. ²¹ Dearly beloued, yf oure herte condempne vs not, then haue we trust to God warde:

¹⁷ Here in is the loue perfect in vs, that we shuld haue trust in the daye of iudgement: For as he is, euen so are we in this worlde.

³¹ And thou shalt make a vayle of yelowe sylke, of purpull, scarlet, and whyte twyned sylke. Of broderd worke with pictures shalt thou make it. ³² And hange it vpon foure pilers of sethim wodd couerd with golde. Whose heades shalbe of golde, stondynge vpon foure sockettes of syluer. ³³ And thou shalt hange vp the vayle wyth rynges, that thou mayest bringe in (with in the vayle) the arcke of witnesse. And the vayle shall vnto you deuyde the holye from the most holy. ³⁴ And thou shalt put the mercy seate vpon the arcke of wytnesse in the holyest place. ³⁵ And thou shalt put the table without the vayle: and the candelsticke ouer agaynst the table on the south syde of the habitacyon. And put the table on the north syde. ³⁶ And thou shalt make an hangynge for the dore of the Tabernacle: of yelowe sylke purple, scarlet, and white twined sylk wroughte with nedle worke. ³⁷ And thou shalt make for the hangyng, fyue pillers of sethim wodd and couer them with golde, and theyr knoppes shalbe of golde, and thou shalt cast fyue sockettes of brasse for them.

³⁵ And he made an hangyng of yelow sylke, purple, scarlet and whyte twyned sylke, euen with pyctures made he it of broderd worcke. ³⁶ And made ther vnto foure pillers of Sethim wodd, and ouerlayde them with golde. Theyr knoppes were also of golde, and he cast for them foure sockettes of syluer. ³⁷ And he made an hangynge for the tabernacle dore: of yelowe sylke, purple, scarlet and whyte twyned sylke of nedle worcke. ³⁸ And the fyue pylers of it with theyr knoppes, & ouerlayde the knoppes of them & the whopes wyth golde. Their fyue sockettes also were of brasse.

² speake vnto Aaron thy brother, that he come not at all tymes into the holy place wythin the vayle before the mercyseate, whych is vpon the arke, that he dye not. For I will appeare in the clowde vpon the mercyseate.

¹⁵ Then shall he kyll the goate that is the peoples synne offrynge, & brynge hys bloude wythin the vayle, & doo wyth that bloude, as he dyd wt the bloude of the bullock, sprynklynge it vpon the mercyseate, and before the mercyseate.

²³ Onely let him not goo in vnto the vayle, nor come nye the alter, when he is deformed, that he polute not my sanctuary, for I am the Lorde that sanctifye them.

⁵¹ And beholde, the vayle of the temple dyd rent in to two partes, from the toppe to the bottome, and the earth dyd quake, and the stones ren

³⁸ And the vayle of the temple dyd rent in two peces, from the toppe to the bottome.

⁴⁵ and the sonne was darckned. And the vayle of the temple dyd rent, euen thorow the myddes.

⁵¹ I am that lyuinge bread, whych came downe from heauen. If eny man eate of this bread, he shall liue for euer And the breed that I will geue, is my flesshe, whych I will geue for the lyfe of the worlde. ⁵² The Iewes therfore stroue amonge them selues, saying: How can this felowe geue vs the flessh of his, to eate? ⁵³ Then Iesus sayde vnto them: Uerely, verely, I saye vnto you, except ye eate the flesshe of the sonne of man, and drinke his bloude: ye haue no lyfe in you. ⁵⁴ Whoso eateth my flesshe & dryncketh my bloude, hath eternall lyfe, & I wyll rayse him vp at the last daye. ⁵⁵ For my fleshe is meate in dede: and my bloude is drincke in dede. ⁵⁶ He that eateth my flesshe & drinketh my bloude, dwelleth in me and I in him.

⁷ Then sayd Iesus vnto them agayne: Uerely verely, I saye vnto you: I am the dore of the shepe.

⁹ I am the dore: by me yf any man entre in, he shalbe safe, and shall go in and out, and fynde pasture.

⁶ Iesus sayeth vnto hym: I am the waye and the treuth, and the lyfe. No man cometh vnto the father, but by me.

¹⁵ and hath also put awaye thorowe his flesshe, the cause of hatred, euen the lawe of commaundementes contayned in the lawe wrytten, for to make of twayne one newe man in hym selfe, so makynge peace,

¹⁹ whych hope we holde as an ancre of the soule both sure and stedfast, whych hope also entreth in, into those thinges which are with in the vayle,

¹⁸ For as moch as Christ hath once suffered for synnes, the iust for the vniust, to bring vs to God, and was kylled, as pertayninge to the flesshe: but was quyckened in the sprete.

² Herby shall ye knowe the sprete of God. Euery sprete that confesseth that Iesu Christ is come in the fleshe is of God.

¹⁸ And I saye also vnto the that thou art Peter: & vpon this rocke I wil bylde my congregacion. And the gates of hell shal not preuayle agaynst it.

⁹ For we are Goddes labourers, ye are Goddes husbandrye, ye are Goddes buyldyng: ¹⁰ Accordynge to the grace of God geuen vnto me, as a wyse buylder haue I layde the foundacyon. And another bylt theron. But let euery man take hede, how he byldeth vpon. ¹¹ For another foundacyon can no man laye, then it that is layde, whych is Iesus Christ. ¹² If eny man buylde on this foundacyon, golde, syluer, precyous stones, tymber, haye or stoble: ¹³ euery mannes worcke shall appeare. For the daye shall declare, whych shalbe shewed in fyre. And the fyre shall trye euery mannes worcke, what it is. ¹⁴ If eny mannes worcke that he hath bylt vpon, byde, he shall receaue a rewarde. ¹⁵ If eny mannes worcke burne, he shall suffre losse, but he shalbe safe hym selfe: neuertheles, yet as it were thorowe fyre. ¹⁶ Knowe ye not, that ye are the temple of God, & how that the sprete of God dwelleth in you? ¹⁷ If eny man defyle the temple of God, hym shall God destroye. For the temple of God, is holy, whych temple ye are.

¹⁶ Or how agreeth the temple of God with Images for ye are the temple of the lyuinge God, as sayde God? I wyll dwell amonge them, & walcke amonge them, and wylbe their God: & they shalbe my people. ¹⁷ Wherfore come out from amonge them, and separate youre selues from them (sayth the Lorde) and touche none vncleane thynge: so wyll I receaue you,

¹⁹ Now therfore, ye are not straungers, and foreyners: but citesyns with the sayntes & of the housholde of God: ²⁰ and are buylt vpon the foundacyon of the Apostles and Prophetes, Iesus Chryst him selfe beynge the heed corner stone, ²¹ in whom what buyldynge soeuer is coupled together, it groweth vnto an holy temple in the Lorde, ²² in whom ye also are buylt together, to be an habitacion of God thorowe the ghost.

¹⁵ but and yf I tarie longe, that then thou mayst yet haue knowledge, howe thou oughtest to behaue thy selfe in the house of God, whych is the congregacyon of the lyuynge God, the pyllar & grounde of trueth.

¹⁷ Wherfore, in all thynges it became hym to be made lyke vnto his brethren, that he myght be mercyfull, and a faythfull hye Preste in thynges concernynge God, for to pourge the peoples synnes.

¹ Therfore holy brethren, partakers of the celestiall callynge consyder the ambassadour and hye preste of oure professyon Christ Iesus,

³ For loke howe moche honoure he (that hath buylded a house) hath more then the house it selfe, so moch honour is he counted worthy of more then Moses. ⁴ For euery house is buylded of some man. But he that ordeyned all thynges, is God. ⁵ And Moses verely was faythfull in all hys house, as a minyster, to beare witnes of those thynges which were to be spoken afterwarde. ⁶ But Christ as a sonne, hath rule ouer the house, whose house are we, yf we holde fast the confydence and the reioysynge of that hope, vnto the ende.

¹⁴ Seynge then, that we haue a great hye prest which is entred into heauen (euen Iesus the sonne of God) let vs holde the profession. ¹⁵ For we haue not an hye preste, which cannot haue compassyon on oure infirmities: but was in all poyntes tempted, lyke as we are: but yet with out synne. ¹⁶ Let vs therfore go boldely vnto the seate of grace, that we maye obtayne mercy, and fynde grace to helpe in tyme of nede.

²⁰ where the fore runner is for vs entred, euen Iesus, that is made an hye preste for euer, after the order of Melchisedech.

²⁶ For soch an hye Prest it became vs to haue, which is holy, harmlesse, vndefiled, separate from synners, made hyer then heauen.

⁴ And brynge Aaron and his sonnes vnto the doore of the tabernacle of wytnesse, and washe them with water,

⁶ And Moses brought Aaron & hys sonnes, and wasshed them with water,

⁷ and sprynkle vpon hym (that must be clensed of hys leprosye) seuen tymes, and clense hym, and shall let the lyuynge byrde goo fre into the felde.

⁷ But thus shalt thou do vnto them, when thou cleansest them: sprynckle water of purifyenge vpon them, and let them make a rasure to runne alonge vpon all the fleshe of them, and let them washe their clothes, and so make them selues cleane.

¹⁸ And let a cleane persone take Isope and dyppe it in the water, & sprynkle it vpon the tent, and vpon all the vessels, and on the soules that were there in, and vpon hym that touched a bone, or a slayne persone, or a deed body, or a graue. ¹⁹ And the cleane persone shall sprynkle vpon the vncleane the thirde daye and the seuenth daye. And the seuenth daye he shall purifye him selfe, & wasshe hys clothes, & bathe him selfe in water, and shalbe cleane at euen.

³ And he walked in all the synnes of his father, which he had done before hym and hys hert was not perfect with the Lord hys God as the hert of Dauid his father.

³³ And of Zabulon that went out to the battayll and proceded forth to the warre, wt all maner of instrumentes of warre, fyftye thousand that were prepared to the warre, without anye dublenesse of hart.

⁹ And thou Salomon my sonne, knowe thou the God of thy father, and serue hym with a pure hert, and wyth a swete courage. For the Lorde sercheth all hertes, and vnderstandeth all the ymaginacyons of thoughtes. And yf thou seke hym, he wylbe founde of the: But yf thou forsake hym, he wyll cast the of for euer.

¹¹ Greate plages remayne for the vngodly, but who so putteth hys trust in the Lorde, mercy embraceth him on euery syde. Be glad, O ye ryghteous and reioyse in the Lorde: and be ioyfull all ye that are true of herte.

¹⁰ Make me a cleane hert (O God) and renue a ryght sprete wythin me.

²⁸ But it is good for me, to holde me fast by God, to put my trust in the Lorde God, and to speake of all thy workes.

¹¹ I had rather be a dore keper in the house of my God, then to dwell in the tentes of vngodlynesse.

¹⁵ Untill righteousnes turne agayne vnto iudgement all soch as be true of hert shall folow it.

¹ Prayse the Lorde. I Wyll geue thanckes vnto the Lord with my whole hert: secretly among the faithfull, and in the congregacion.

² Blessed are they that kepe hys testimonies, and seke hym wyth theyr whole herte.

¹⁴⁵ I call wt my whole hert, heare me, O Lord, I will kepe thy statutes.

²⁶ My sonne, geue me thyne herte, & lett thyne eyes haue pleasure in my wayes.

¹³ Therfore thus hath the Lorde sayde: For somoche as this people when they be in trouble, do honour me with their mouth & wt their lippes: but their hert is far fro me, & the feare which they haue vnto me, proceadeth of a commaundment that is taught of men.

¹⁵ Euen so shall the multitude of the Gentyles loke vnto hym, & kynges shall shut their mouthes before him. For they that haue not bene tolde of him, shall se hym, & they that herde nothynge of hym, shall beholde him.

¹⁰ Neuerthelesse, her vnfaythfull syster Iuda is not turned vnto me agayne wyth her whole herte, but faynedly, sayeth the Lorde.

⁷ And I wyll geue them an herte, to knowe how that I am the Lorde. They shalbe my people, & I will be their God, for they shall returne vnto me with their whole herte.

²¹ A captayne also shall come of them: and a prynce shall springe out from the myddest of them: hym will I chalenge to my selfe, and he shall come vnto me. For what is he, that geueth ouer his hert to come vnto me? sayth the Lorde.

⁹ Then washed I the with water, and pourged thy bloude from the. I anoynted the with oyle,

²⁵ Then will I poure cleare water vpon you, and ye shalbe clene: yee, from all your vnclennesse and from all your Idols shall I clense you.

¹¹ I baptyse you in water vnto repentaunce: but he that shall come after me is myghtyer then I, whose shoes I am not worthy to beare. He shall baptise you with the holy ghost and with fyre:

²¹ Iesus answered, and sayd vnto them: Uerely I saye vnto you yf ye haue fayth & dout not, ye shal not onely do this that is happened vnto the fygge tree: but also yf ye shall saye vnto this mountayne, remoue, & cast thy selfe into the see, it shalbe done. ²² And all thinges whatsoeuer ye aske in prayer (yf ye beleue) ye shall receaue them.

²³ Uerely I saye vnto you, that whosoeuer shall saye vnto thys mountayne: remoue, and cast thy selfe into the see, and shall not doute in hys herte, but shall beleue that those thinges which he sayeth shal come to passe, whatsoeuer he sayeth he shall haue. ²⁴ Therfore I saye vnto you, what thinges soeuer ye desyre when ye praye, beleue that ye receaue them, and ye shall haue them.

⁵ Iesus answered verely, verely, I saye vnto the: except a man be borne of water & of the sprete, he cannot enter into the kyngdom of God,

⁹ And assone as they hearde this, they went out one by one, begynning at the eldest. And Iesus was lefte alone, & the woman standynge in the myddes.

⁸ Peter sayeth vnto him: thou shalt neuer wasshe my fete. Iesus answered hym: yf I wasshe the not, thou hast no parte with me. ⁹ Symon Peter sayeth vnto hym: Lorde, not my fete onely, but also the handes and the head. ¹⁰ Iesus sayth to hym: he that is wasshed, nedeth not, saue to wasshe his fete, but is cleane euery whyt. And ye are cleane, but not all.

²¹ Thou hast nether parte, nor felowshyp in thys busynes. For thy hert is not ryght in the syght of God.

¹ Seynge that we haue soche promyses (dearely beloued) lett vs clense oure selues from all filthynes of the flesshe and sprete, and growe vp to full holynes wyth the feare of God.

⁵ Ye seruauntes, obeye them that are youre bodely masters, with feare & tremblynge, euen with the synglenes of youre herte, as vnto Christ:

² which speake false thorowe ypocrysye, & haue their consciences marcked wt an hote yron,

⁵ not by the dedes of rightewesnes which we wrought, but accordynge to hys mercye he saued vs by the fountayne of the newe byrth, and renuynge of the holy goost,

¹⁹ For when Moses had declared all the commaundement to all the people according to the lawe, he toke the bloud of calues and of goates, with water & purple wolle, and ysope, and sprinckled both the boke, & all the people,

¹⁹ Seyng therfore brethren, that by the meanes of the bloud of Iesu we haue libertye to enter into the holy place,

²⁸ Thorow fayth he ordeyned the passeouer and that effusyon of bloud, lest he that destroyed the fyrst borne, shulde touch them.

²⁴ and to Iesus the mediator of the new testament, & to the sprincklynge of bloud that speaketh better then the bloud of Abel.

⁶ But let him aske in fayth, and wauer not, For he that douteth, is lyke a waue of the see, which is tost of the wyndes and caryed with violence.

⁸ Drawe nye to God, and he will drawe nye to you. Clense your handes ye siners, & pourge your hertes ye waueryng mynded.

² accordyng to the for knowledge of God the farthe thorow the sanctifynge of the sprete vnto obedience & sprincklyng of the bloude of Iesus Chryst. Grace be wyth you and peace be multiplyed.

²¹ like as baptyme also now saueth vs, not the puttynge awaye of the fylth of the flesshe, but in that a good conseyence consenteth to God, by the resurreccyon of Iesus Christ,

¹⁹ Herby we knowe, that we are of the veritie & can quyet oure hertes before hym. ²⁰ For yf oure herte condempne vs, God is gretter then oure herte, and knoweth all thinges. ²¹ Dearly beloued, yf oure herte condempne vs not, then haue we trust to God warde: ²² & what soeuer we aske we receaue of hym, because we kepe his commaundementes, & do those thinges which are pleasinge in his syght.

⁵ & from Iesus Christ, which is a faythfull wytnes, & fyrst begotten of the deed: & Lorde ouer the kynges of the erth. Unto him that loued vs, and wesshed vs from oure synnes in hys awne bloude,

⁹ God is faythfull, by whom ye are called vnto the fellyshyppe of hys sonne Iesus Christ our Lord.

¹³ Ther hath none other temptacyon taken you, but soche as foloweth the nature of man. But God is faythfull whych shall not suffer you to be tempted aboue youre strength: but shall in the myddes of the temptacyon make awaye, that ye maye be able to beare it.

²⁴ Faythfull is he whych called you, which wyll also do it.

³ but the Lord is faythfull, whych shall stablysshe you, and preserue you from euyll.

² in the hope of eternall lyfe, which God (that cannot lye) promysed before the worlde beganne:

⁶ But Christ as a sonne, hath rule ouer the house, whose house are we, yf we holde fast the confydence and the reioysynge of that hope, vnto the ende.

¹⁴ We are made partetakers of Christ, yf we kepe sure (vnto the ende) the begynnynge of the substance,

¹⁴ Seynge then, that we haue a great hye prest which is entred into heauen (euen Iesus the sonne of God) let vs holde the profession.

¹⁸ that by two immutable thynges (in whych it was vnpossible that God shulde lye) we myght haue a stronge consolacyon, which hitherto haue fled, for to holde fast the hope that is set before vs,

¹¹ Thorow fayth Sara also receaued strength to conceaue and be with chylde, and was delyuered of a childe when she was past age, because she iudged him faythful which had promysed.

¹¹ Beholde, I come shortly. Holde that which thou hast, that no man take awaye thy crowne.

¹ To the chaunter, a Psalme of Dauid. Blessed is he that consydreth the poore the Lorde shall delyuer hym in the tyme of trouble.

⁷ The ryghteous considreth the cause of the poore: but the vngodly regardeth no vnderstandynge.

²⁹ Then the disciples euery man accordynge to his abylyte, purposed to sende socour vnto the brethren which dwelt in Iewry.

⁴ But what sayth the answere of God vnto hym? I haue reserued vnto my selfe seuen thousande men, which haue not bowed the knee to the ymage of Ball.

¹⁵ Be mery with them that are mery. Wepe also with them that wepe.

¹ We whych are stronge ought to beare the fraylnes of them, whych are weake, and not to stonde in oure awne consaytes. ² Let euery man please hys neyghbour vnto hys welth and edifyinge.

¹² When ye synne so agaynst the brethren, & wounde their weake conscience, ye synne agaynst Christ. ¹³ Wherfore yf meate hurt my brother, I will neuer eate flesshe lest I shulde offende my brother.

²² To the weake became I as weake, to wynne the weake: In all thinges I fasshyoned my selfe to all men, to saue at the least waye some.

³³ euen as I please all men in all thynges, not sekynge myne awne profet, but the profet of many, that they myght be saued.

⁸ This saye I, not commaundynge: but because of feruentnes, I do alowe the vnfaynednesse of youre loue towarde other men.

² for I knowe the redynes of your mynde, wherof I boast my selfe vnto them of Macedonia, that Achaia was prepared a yeare ago: and your ensample hath prouoked many.

⁶ For in Iesu Christ, nether is circumcisyon any thynge worth, nether yet vncircumcysion but faith which worketh by loue.

¹³ Brethren, ye were called into libertye: only let not youre libertye be an occasion vnto the flesshe: but by loue serue one another.

²² Contrarely, the frute of the sprete is, loue, ioye, peace, longe sufferinge, gentylnes, goodnes, faythfulnes,

¹ Brethren, if a man also be taken in eny faute, ye which are spirituall, helpe to amende hym in the sprete of meaknes: consyderinge thy selfe, lest thou also be tempted.

⁹ And thys I praye, that youre loue maye increase yet more and more in knowledge, and in all vnderstandynge, ¹⁰ that ye maye accepte the thynges that are most excellent, that ye maye be pure, and soche, as offende no man vntyll the daye of Christ: ¹¹ beynge fylled with the frute of ryghtewesnes, which cometh by Iesus Christ vnto the glory and prayse of God.

¹⁶ Let the worde of Chryst dwell in you plenteously with all wysdome. Teache and exhorte youre awne selues, in Psalmes, and hymnes, and spirituall songes syngynge with grace in youre hertes to the Lorde

³ without ceasynge, & call you to remembraunce because of the worke of your fayth, and labour in loue, and because ye haue contynued in the hope of oure Lorde Iesus Christ, in the syght of God our father.

¹² the Lord also shall increace you & make you flowe ouer in loue one toward another, and towarde all men, euen as we do toward you, ¹³ that he maye make youre hertes stable & vnblameable, in holynes before God oure father, at the commynge of oure Lorde Iesus Christ with all saynctes.

¹¹ Wherfore, comforte your selues together, & edifye euery one another, euen as ye do.

⁹ not but that we had auctorite: but to make oure selues an ensample vnto you to folowe vs.

¹⁸ that they do good: that they be riche in good workes: that they be redy to geue & gladly to distribute,

⁴ to make the younge wemen sobre mynded, to loue theyr husbandes, to loue their chyldren,

⁸ Thys is a true sayinge. Of these thynges I wyll that thou certifye, that they which beleue in God, myght be diligent to go forwarde in good workes. For these thynges are good and profitable vnto men,

¹⁰ For God is not vnryghteous that he shulde forget youre worke and laboure that procedeth of loue, which loue ye shewe in his name, which haue ministred vnto the saynctes, and yet minister. ¹¹ Yee, and we desyre, that euery one of you shewe the same diligence, to the full stablishinge of hope, euen vnto the ende,

¹ Let brotherly loue continu

³ Remember them that are in bondes, euen as though ye were bounde wt them your selues. Be myndfull of them which are in aduersyte, as ye which are yet in the bodye.

¹⁸ My babes, let vs not loue in worde, nether in tonge: but in dede & in veritie.

²⁰ For where two or thre are gathered to gether in my name, there am I in the myddes of them

³³ So lykewyse ye, when ye se all these thinges, be ye sure that it is neare, euen at the dores. ³⁴ Uerely I saye vnto you: this generacion shal not passe, tyll all these thinges be fulfylled

²⁹ So ye in lyke maner: when ye se these thynges come to passe: vnderstand, that he is nye euen at the dores. ³⁰ Uerely I saye vnto you, that thys generacion shall not passe, tyll these thinges de done.

¹⁹ The same daye at night: which was the fyrst daye of the Sabothes, when the dores were shut (where the disciples were assembled together for feare of the Iewes) came Iesus, and stode in the myddes, & saieth vnto them: peace be vnto you. ²⁰ And when he had so sayde, he shewed vnto them his handes, & his syde. Then were the disciples glad when they sawe the Lord. ²¹ Then sayd Iesus to them agayne: peace be vnto you. As my father sent me, euen so sende I you also. ²² And when he had sayd those wordes, he brethed on them and sayeth vnto them: Receaue ye the holy goost. ²³ Whosoeuers synnes ye remitte, they are remitted vnto them. And whosoeuers synnes ye retayne, they are retayned. ²⁴ But Thomas one of the twelue (which is called Didymus) was not wt them when Iesus came. ²⁵ The other disciples therfore sayde vnto him: we haue sene the Lorde. But he sayde vnto them: except I se in hys handes the prynt of the nayles, & put my fynger in to the prynte of the nayles, & thrust my hande into his syde, I will not beleue. ²⁶ And after .viij. dayes, agayne his disciples were wt in, & Thomas wt them. Then came Iesus when the dores were shut, & stode in the myddes, and sayde: peace be vnto you. ²⁷ After that sayd he to Thomas: bringe thy fynger hether, & se my handes, & reach hyther thy hande, & thrust it into my syde, & be not faythlesse, but beleuinge. ²⁸ Thomas answered, and sayde vnto him: my Lorde, & my God: ²⁹ Iesus sayeth vnto him: Thomas, because thou hast sene me, thou hast beleued, blessed are they that haue not sene, and yet haue beleued.

¹³ And when they were come in, they went vp into a parler, where aboade both Peter and Iames, and Iohn and Andrew, Philip & Thomas, Barthelemew and Mathew, Iames the sonne of Alpheus, and Simon Zelotes, and Iudas the brother of Iames. ¹⁴ These all contynued with one accorde in prayer and supplicacyon with the wemen & Mary the mother of Iesu, and with hys brethren.

¹ When the fyftye dayes were come to an ende, they were all with one accorde together in one place.

⁴² And they continued in the Apostles doctrine and felowshyp, & in breakynge of bread, and in prayers.

¹⁶ And it fortuned as we went to prayer, a certayn damsell possessed with a sprete that prophesyed, met vs, which brought her master: & mastres moche vauntage wt Prophesyinge.

⁷ And vpon one of the Saboth dayes, whan the disciples came together for to breake breed Paul preached vnto them (ready to departe on the morowe) & continued the preaching vnto mydnyght.

⁸ Let hym that exhorteth, geue attendaunce to his exhortacion. If eny man geue, let hym do it with synglenes. Let hym that ruleth, do it wit diligence. If eny man shewe mercy, let hym do it with cherfulnes.

¹¹ This also, we knowe the season howe that it is tyme that we shulde now awake out of slepe. For now is oure saluacyon nearer, then when we beleued. ¹² The nyght is passed, the daye is come nye. Let vs therfore cast awaye the dedes of darcknes, and let vs put on the Armoure of lyght. ¹³ Let vs walke honestly as it were in the daye lyght: not in eatynge & drynckynge, nether in chamburyng and wantannes, nether in stryfe & enuyinge:

¹³ euery mannes worcke shall appeare. For the daye shall declare, whych shalbe shewed in fyre. And the fyre shall trye euery mannes worcke, what it is.

⁴ in the name of oure Lord Iesu Christ, when ye are gathered together, and my sprete wt you, with the power of the Lorde Iesus Chryst

¹⁷ This I warne you of, and commende not, that ye come not together after a better maner, but after a worsse. ¹⁸ For fyrst of all when ye come together in the congregacion, I heare that there is dyssencyon amonge you: and I partely beleue it.

²⁰ When ye come to gether therfore into one place, the Lordes supper can not be eaten. For euery man begynneth afore to eate his awne supper.

³ But he that prophesieth, speaketh vnto men for their edifyinge, for their exhortacion and for their comforte.

²³ If therfore, when all the congregacyon is come together, and all speake with tonges, ther come in they that are vnlearned, or they which beleue not: will they not saye, that ye are out of youre wittes?

⁵ Let youre softenes be knowen vnto all men: The Lorde is euen at hande.

¹⁸ Wherfore, comforte your selues one another wt these wordes.

¹³ but exhorte ye one another dayly, while it is called to daye: lest eny of you wexe harde harted thorowe the deceytfulnesse of synne.

²⁴ & let vs consider one another, to the intent that we maye prouoke vnto loue, & to good workes,

⁸ Be ye also pacient therfore, and settle youre hertes, for the commynge of the Lorde draweth nye.

⁷ The ende of al thinges is at hande. Be ye therfore sober, and watch vnto prayer.

⁹ The Lord that hath promised, is not slacke, as some men count slacknes: but is pacyent to vs warde: for asmoch as he wolde haue no man lost, but wyll receaue all men to repentaunce.

¹¹ Seyng then that all these thinges shal perishe, what maner persons ought ye to be in holy conuersacyon, and godlynes:

¹⁴ Wherfore dearly beloued, seynge that ye loke for such thinges, be diligent that ye maye be founde of hym in peace, wythout spotte and vndefyled.

¹⁹ These are makers of sectes, fleshlye, hauynge no sprete.

² speake vnto the chyldren of Israel, and saye: Yf a soule synne thorowe ignoraunce, and hath done any of those thynges whyche the Lorde hath forbydden in hys commaundementes to be done.

¹³ If the hole congregacyon of Israel synne thorowe ignoraunce, and the thynge be hyd from theyr eyes, so that they haue committed any of those thynges which the Lorde hath forbydden to be done in hys commaundementes, and haue offended.

²⁸ And the preaste shall make an atonement for the soule that synned ignorauntly, with the synneofferynge before the Lorde to reconcyle hym: and that it maye be forgeuen hym. ²⁹ And both thou that art borne of the children of Israel and the straunger that dwelleth amonge you, shall haue both one lawe, whoso doeth synne thorowe ignoraunce. ³⁰ But the soule that doeth ought presumptuouslye, whyther he be an Israelite or a straunger, the same blasphemeth the Lorde. And that soule shalbe roted out from among his people, ³¹ because he hath despysed the word of the Lorde, and hath broken hys commaundement, that soule therfore shall perish, and his synne shalbe vpon him.

¹² And that man that will do presumptuously, and wyll not herken vnto the preast (that standeth there before the Lorde thy God to mynistre) or vnto the iudge, that man shall dye: and thou shalt put awaye euell from Israel.

¹² Who can tell, howe oft he offendeth? Oh clense thou me fro secrete fautes. ¹³ Kepe thy seruaunt also from presumptuous synnes, lest they get the dominion ouer me: so shall I be vndefyled, & innocent from the greate offence.

²² And thou his sonne (O Balthazar) for all this, hast not submytted thyne herte, though thou knewest all these thinges: ²³ but hast magnifyed thy selfe aboue the Lorde of heauen, so that the vessels of hys house were brought before the: that thou, and thy Lordes? with thy quene and concubynes, myght dryncke wyne therout. And hast praysed the Idoles of syluer and gold, copper and yron, of wodd and stone. As for the God in whose hande consysteth thy breth and all thy wayes: thou hast not loued hym.

³¹ Wherfore, I saye vnto you, all maner of synne and blasphemy shalbe forgeuen vnto men but the blasphemy agaynst the sprete, shall not be forgeuen vnto men. ³² And whosoeuer speaketh a worde agaynst the sonne of man, it shalbe forgeuen hym. But whosoeuer speaketh agaynst the holy gost, it shall not be forgeuen him, nether in this worlde, nether in the worlde to come:

⁴³ When the vnclene spryte is gone out of a man, he walketh throughout drye places, sekyng rest, and findeth none. ⁴⁴ Then he saieth: I will retourne into my house, from whence I came out. And when he is come, he fyndeth it empty, and swepte, and garnisshed. ⁴⁵ Then goeth he, and taketh vnto him seuen other spretes worse then him selfe, and so entreth he in, and dwelleth there. And the ende of that man is worse then the begynning. Euen so shall it be also, vnto this froward generacion.

⁴⁷ The seruaunt that knewe his masters will and prepared not him selfe, nether dyd accordinge to hys wyll, shalbe beaten with many strypes.

⁴¹ Iesus sayd vnto them: If ye were blynde, ye shulde haue no synne. But now ye saye: we se, therfore your synne remayneth.

¹⁷ If ye vnderstande these thinges happy are ye, yf ye do them.

²² If I had not come and spoken vnto them, they shuld haue had no synne: but now haue they nothyng to cloke their synne withall. ²³ He that hateth me, hateth my father also: ²⁴ If I had not done amonge them the workes whych none other man dyd, they shuld haue had no synne. But now haue they both sene, & hated: not onely me but also my father.

¹⁰ and with all deceauablenes of vnryghtwesnes, amonge them that perysshe: because they receaued not the loue of the trueth, that they myght be saued.

¹³ where as before I was a blasphemer, and a persecuter, & a Tyraunt. But yet I obtayned mercy, because I dyd it ignorauntly thorowe vnbelefe.

⁴ For it can not be that they which were once lyghted, and haue tasted of the heauenly gyfte, & were become partakers of the holy goost, ⁵ and haue tasted of the good worde of God, and of the power of the worlde to come: ⁶ yf they fall awaye (and as concernynge them selues crucifye the sonne of God a fresshe, and make a mocke of him) that they shulde be renued agayne by repentaunce.

¹⁷ Therfore to hym that knoweth how to do good, and doth it not, to hym it is synne.

²⁰ For yf they (after they haue escaped from the fylthynes of the worlde thorow the knowledge of the Lord and the sauyour Iesu Christ) are yet tangled againe therin, and ouercome then is the latter ende worse wyth them then the begynninge. ²¹ For it had bene better for them, not to haue knowne the waye of ryghteousnes, then after they haue knowen it, to turne from the holy commaundement that was geuen vnto them: ²² But the same is happened vnto them that is vsed to be spoken by the true prouerbe. The dogge is turned to his awne vomet agayne and the sow that was wasshed is turned agayne to her walowynge in the myer.

¹⁶ If eny man se hys brother synne a synne not vnto deeth, let him aske, & he shall geue him lyfe for them that synne not vnto deeth. Ther is a synne vnto deeth, for which saye I not that a man shuld praye.

³⁵ And there came oute a fyer from the Lorde, and consumed the two hundred and fyftye men that offred cens.

⁴³ Prayse ye hethen his people, for he will auenge the bloude of hys seruauntes, & wyll auenge hym of his aduersaries, and wylbe mercyfull vnto his lande, and to hys people.

¹⁹ And moreouer, the Lorde wyll delyuer Israel wt the, into the handes of the Philistines. To morowe shalt thou and thy sonnes be with me, and the Lorde shall geue the hoste of Israel into the handes of the Philistines. ²⁰ Then Saul fell streyght waye flatte on the erth a longe as he was, and was sore adread because of the wordes of Samuel. And there was no strength in hym, for he had eaten no bread all the daye and the nyght before.

⁹ Thou shalt make them lyke a fyrye ouen in tyme of thy wrath: the Lorde shall destroye them in hys displeasure, and the fyre shall consume them.

¹ To the chaunter, a Psalme and songe of Dauid. Let God aryse, and let his enemies be scattered: let them also that hate him, flye before him. ² Like as the smoke vanysheth, so shalt thou dryue them awaye: and lyke as waxe melteth at the fyre: so let the vngodly perysh at the presence of God.

¹¹ Lorde, when thy hande is lyfte vp to stryke, they se it not: but they shall se it, and be confounded with the zele of the people, and the fyer that consumeth thyne enemyes, shall deuoure them.

¹⁴ The sinners at Zion are afrayde, a soden fearfulnes is come vpon the ypocrites. What is he amonge vs, say they, that shall dwell by the consuming fier? which of vs maye abyde that euerlasting heat?

⁴ Be circumcysed in the Lorde, and cut awaye the foreskynne of youre hertes, all yee of Iuda, and all the indwellers of Ierusalem: that my indignacyon breake not out lyke fyre and kyndle, so that no man maye quench it, because of the wyckednes of youre ymaginacyons.

⁵ Yee, euen thus sayeth the Lord God. In the fyre of my gelousy haue I taken a deuyce, agaynst the residue of the Gentiles, & agaynst all Edom: which haue taken in my lande vnto them selues for a possession: which also reioysed from their whole hert with a despitefull stomacke, to waste it, and to spoyle it.

¹⁹ For in my gelousy and hote displeasure I haue deuysed that there shalbe a greate trouble in the lande of Israell at that tyme.

⁶ Then chaunged the kynge his countenaunce, and his thoughtes troubled hym, so that the ioyntes of his body shoke, and hys knees smote one agaynst the other.

⁸ The hye places of Auen where Israell do synne, shall be cast downe: thystles and thornes shall growe vpon theyr aulters. Then shall they saye to the mountaynes: couer vs, and to the hylles: fall vpon vs.

³⁰ I will shewe wonders in heauen aboue and tokens in the earth beneth: bloude and fyre, and the vapoure of smoke.

² The Lorde is a gelous God, & a taker of vengeaunce is the Lorde, and wrothfull. The Lorde taketh vengeaunce of his enemyes, and reserueth displeasure for his aduersaries.

⁵ The mountaynes tremble for him, the hylles consume. At the sight of him, the earth quaketh: yee, the whole world, and all that dwell therin. ⁶ Who maye endure before hys wrath? Or who is able to abide his gryme displeasure? His anger taketh on lyke fyre, and the harde rockes are clouen in sunder before him.

⁸ when the floude renneth ouer, and destroyeth the place, and when the darcknesse foloweth styll vpon his enemyes. ⁹ What do ye Imagin then agaynst the Lord on this maner? (Tush, when he hath once made an ende, there shall come nomore trouble.) ¹⁰ For like as the thornes that stike together, and as the drie strawe, so shall the dronckardes be consumed together, euen when they be full.

¹⁸ Nether their syluer ner their golde shalbe able to deliuer them in that wrothful daye of the Lorde, but the whole lande shalbe consumed thorow the fyre of his gelousy: for he shall soone make clene ryddaunce of al them that dwell in the lande.

⁸ Therfore, ye shall wayte vpon me (sayth the Lorde) vntyll the tyme that I stande vp: for I am determined, to gather the people & to bring the kingdomes together, that I may poure out myne anger, ye all my wrothfull dyspleasure vpon them. For al the worlde shall be consumed with the fyre of my gelousy.

¹ For marck, the daye commeth that shal bnrne as an ouen: and all the proude, yee, and all soch as do wyckednesse, shalbe strawe, & the daye that is for to come, shall burne them vp (saieth the Lord of hostes) so that it shal leaue them nether rote ner braunche.

¹⁰ Euen now is the axe also put vnto the rote of the trees: so that euery tree which bringeth not forth good frute, is hewen downe, and cast into the fyre.

¹² whose fan is in hys hand, & he wyll purge hys floore, & gather his wheat into the barne, but wyll burne the chaffe wt vnquencheable fyre.

²⁹ And beholde, they cryed out sayinge: O Iesu thou sonne of God what haue we to do with the? Art thou come hyther to torment vs before the tyme?

⁴² and shall cast them into a furnes of fyre. There shalbe waylinge & gnasshyng of teth.

⁵⁰ & shall cast them into a furnace of fyre: there shalbe wayling & gnasshing of teth.

⁴¹ Then shall he saye also vnto them, that shalbe on the lyfte hand: departe from me ye cursed into euerlastynge fyre: whych is prepared for the deuyll and his angels.

⁴³ Wherfore yf thy hande hynder the, cut it of. It is beter for the, to entre into lyfe maymed, then (hauynge two handes) to go into hell, into fyre that neuer shalbe quenched, ⁴⁴ where theyr worme dyeth not, and the fyre goeth not out. ⁴⁵ And yf thy fote be a hynderaunce vnto the, cut it of. It is better for the to go halt into lyfe, then (hauynge two fete) to be cast into hell, into fyre that neuer shalbe quenched: ⁴⁶ where theyr worme dyeth not, and the fyre goeth not out. ⁴⁷ And yf thyne eye hinder the plucke it out. It is better for the to go into the kyngedome of God wyth one eye, then (hauynge two eyes) to be cast into hell fyre: ⁴⁸ where theyr worme dyeth not, and the fyre goeth not out. ⁴⁹ Euery man shalbe salted wyth fyre. And euery sacrifyce shalbe seasoned with salt.

²⁴ and he cryed and sayde: father Abraham: haue mercy on me, and sende Lazarus, that he maye dyppe the typpe of hys fynger in water, and cole my tonge: for I am tormented in this flame.

²⁷ Moreouer, those myne enemyes, (whych wolde not that I shuld raygne ouer them) brynge hyther, and slee them before me.

²⁶ and mennes hertes shall fayle them for feare, and for lokynge after those thynges which shall come on the erth. For the powers of heauen shall moue.

³⁰ Then shall they begynne to saye to the mountaynes: fall on vs: and to the hylles, couer vs.

¹⁵ Whych as they kylled the Lorde Iesus, and theyr awne Prophetes, euen so haue they persecuted vs: and God they please not, and are contrary to al men, ¹⁶ & hynder vs, that we shuld not speake vnto the Gentyls, that they myght be saued, to fulfyll their synnes alwaye. For the wrath of God is come on them, euen to the vtmost.

⁷ and to you whych are troubled, rest wyth vs, when the Lorde Iesus shall shewe hym selfe from heauen with the Angels of hys power, ⁸ wyth flaminge fyre, whych shall rendre vengeaunce vnto them that knowe not God, and that obeye not the Gospell of oure Lorde Iesus Christ

³ howe shall we escape, yf we despyse so great saluacyon, which at the fyrst began to be preached of the Lorde hym selfe, and was confirmed vnto vs warde, by them that hearde it?

²⁷ And as it is apoynted vnto all men tkat they shall once dye, and then commeth the iudgement

²⁵ Se that ye despyse not hym, that speaketh. For yf they escaped not, whych refused him that spake on erth: moch more shall we not escape, yf we turne awaye from hym, that speaketh from heauen:

²⁹ For oure God is a consumyng fyre.

³ Youre golde & syluer is cankred, and the rust of the shalbe a wytnes vnto you, & shall eate youre flesshe as it were fyre. Ye haue heaped treasure together in your last dayes:

¹⁵ And the kynges of the erth, and the gret men, and the ryche men, and the chefe captaynes, & the myghty men, & euery bondman, and euery free man, hyd them selues in dennes, and in rockes of the hylles: ¹⁶ and sayde to the hylles and rockes: fall on vs, & hyde vs from the presence of hym that sytteth on the seate, and from the wrath of the lambe: ¹⁷ for the grete daye of his wrath is come, and who is able to endure?

¹⁵ And whosoeuer was not founde wrytten in the boke of lyfe, was cast into the lake of fyre.

³⁶ And all the multitude brought him without the hoost, & stoned him with stones, and he dyed as the Lord commaunded Moses.

⁶ If thy brother, the sonne of thy mother, or thyne awne sonne, or thy daughter, or the wyfe that lyeth in thy bosome, or thy frende which is as thyne awne soule vnto the, entice the secretly, saying: let vs go & serue straunge Goddes, whych thou hast not knowen nor yet thy fathers, ⁷ And they be of the Goddes of the people which are rounde aboute you, whether they be nye vnto the or farre of from the, from the one ende of the erth vnto the other, ⁸ Thou shalt not consente vnto him, nor herken vnto him: thine eye shall not pitie him nether shalt thou haue compassion on him, nor kepe him secret but cause him to be slayne. ⁹ Thyne hande shalbe fyrst vpon him to kyll hym: & then the handes of all the people. ¹⁰ And thou shalt stone him wyth stones that he dye, because he hath gone aboute to thrust the awaye from the Lorde thy God, which brought the out of the lande of Egipte, and from the house of bondage.

² there be founde amonge you wyth in any of thy gates, whych the Lorde thy God geueth the, man, or woman that hath wrought wyckednesse in the syghte of the Lorde thy God, so that they haue gone beyonde hys appoyntment, ³ and gone and serued straunge goddes, and worshypped them the sonne or moone or any of the hoost of heauen, which I haue not commaunded, ⁴ & it is tolde the, and thou hast heard of it then shalt thou enquire diligently. And yf it be true, & the thynge of a suertye, that soche abhominacion is wrought in Israel, ⁵ then shalt thou brynge forth that man or that woman (whych haue committed that wycked thinge) vnto the gates, and shalt stone them wyth stones, tyll they dye. ⁶ At the mouth of two or thre witnesses shall he that is worthy of death, dye: and at the mouth of one wytnesse let no man dye. ⁷ The handes of the wytnesses shalbe fyrst vpon hym, to kyll hym, and afterwarde the handes of the people, & thou shalt put the wycked awaye from the. ⁸ If there ryse a matter to harde for the in iudgement betwene bloud and bloud, betwene plee and plee, betwene plage and plage, and the matters come to stryfe wythin thy gates, Then shalt thou aryse, and get the vp vnto the place which the Lord thy God hath chosen, ⁹ and come vnto the preastes the Leuites, and vnto the iudge that shalbe in those dayes, and aske and they shall shewe the the sentence of iudgement. ¹⁰ And thou must do accordynge to that, whych they of that place (which the Lorde had chosen) shewe the and thou shalt obserue to do, accordynge to all that they enfourme the. ¹¹ Accordynge to the sentence of the lawe which they teache the, & accordinge to the iudgement which they tell the, shalt thou do, and bowe not from that which they shewe the, nether to the right hande nor to the lefte. ¹² And that man that will do presumptuously, and wyll not herken vnto the preast (that standeth there before the Lorde thy God to mynistre) or vnto the iudge, that man shall dye: and thou shalt put awaye euell from Israel. ¹³ And all the people shall heare and feare, and shall do no more presumptuously.

¹³ Thyne eye shall not spare hym, but thou shalt put a waye innocent bloude, from Israel, that it maye go well wyth the.

¹⁵ One wytnesse shall not ryse agaynst a man for any maner trespace, or for any maner synne, or for any maner faute, that he offendeth in. But at the mouthe of two wytnesses or of .iij. wytnesses shall the matter be stablyshed.

⁹ Wherfore then hast thou despised the commaundement of the Lorde, to do wyckednesse in hys syght? thou hast kylde Urias the Hethite with the swerde, and hast taken his wife to thy wyfe, & hast slayne hym with the swerde of the chyldren of Ammon.

¹³ And Dauid sayde vnto Nathan I haue synned agaynst the Lorde. And Nathan sayd vnto Dauid: the Lorde also hath put awaye thy synne, thou shalt not dye.

¹¹ When the braunches of it are drie, they are broken of, & the wemen come, and set them on fyer. For it is a people of no vnderstanding, & therfore he that made them, shall not fauoure them, and he that created them, shall geue them no grace.

¹⁴ And I wyll sett them one agaynst another, ye, the fathers agaynst the sonnes, sayeth the Lorde. I wyll not pardon them, I wyll not spare them, ner haue pytie vpon them: but destroye them.

¹⁶ But yf he heare the not, then take yet wyth the one or two, that in the mouth of two or .iij. witnesses, euery mater may be stablysshed.

¹⁷ It is also wrytten in youre lawe, that the testimony of two men is true.

¹⁵ For he sayth to Moses: I wyll shewe mercy to whomsoeuer I shewe mercy: and wyll haue compassyon,

¹ Nowe come I the thyrd tyme vnto you: in the mouth of two or thre witnesses shal euery worde be stablysshed.

² For yf the worde whych was spoken by angells was stedfast: And euery transgressyon and disobedience receaued a iust recompence of rewarde,

¹³ For he shal haue iudgement without mercy that sheweth no mercy: and mercy reioyseth agaynst iudgement.

³³ And he sayde: throwe her downe. So they threwe her downe, and her bloude dasshed towarde the wall, & toward the horses, and he troade her vnder fote.

¹³ Thou shalt go vpon the Lyon and Adder, the yonge Lyon and the Dragon shalte thou treade vnder thy fete.

¹⁰ Teach me to do the thynge that pleaseth the, for thou art my God, let thy louinge sprete leade me forthe vnto the lande of ryghteousnes.

¹⁹ and thou art cast out of thy graue lyke a filthy abhominable braunch: lyke as dead mens raymint that are shot thorow with the swerde, & go downe to the stones of the depe: as a dead coarse that is troden vnder fete:

³ The crowne of the pryde of the dronken Ephraemites shalbe troden vnder fote:

¹⁰ But after they prouoked him to wrath & vexed his holy mynde he was their enemye, & fought agaynst them him selfe.

⁵ Before I fasshioned the in thy mothers wombe, I dyd knowe the. And or euer thou wast borne, I sanctifyed the, and ordeyned the, to be a prophete vnto the people.

¹⁵ The Lorde hath destroyed all the myghtye men, that were in me He hath proclaymed a feaste, to slaughter all my best men. The Lorde hath troden downe the daughter, of Iuda, lyke as it were in a wyne presse.

⁶ Then came I by the, and sawe the troden downe in thyne awne bloude, & sayde vnto the: Lyue, although thou be defyled in thyne awne bloude, ye euen I (I tell the) sayde vnto the lyue, although thou be defyled in thyne awne bloude.

¹⁰ She that is myne enemy shal loke vpon it, & be confounded, which now saieth. Where is thy Lord God? Myne eyes shall beholde her, when she shalbe troden downe, as the claye in the stretes.

¹⁰ Moreouer, vpon the house of Dauid and vpon the cytesyns of Ierusalem will I poure out the sprete of grace & compassion, so that they shall loke vpon me, whom they haue pearsed: & they shal bewepe him as men mourne for their only begotten sonne: yee, & be sory for him, as men are sory for their first chyld.

⁶ Geue not ye that whych hys holy vnto dogges, nether cast ye youre pearles before swyne, lest they treade them vnder their fete & the other turne against you, & al to rent you.

¹⁰ And whosoeuer speaketh a worde agaynst the sonne of man, it shalbe forgeuen him. But vnto him that blasphemeth the holy goost, it shall not be forgeuen.

³⁶ concernynge hym whom the father hath sanctifyed, and sent into the worlde) Do ye saye that I blaspheme because I sayde, I am the sonne of God?

⁵¹ Ye stiffenecked and of vncircumcised hertes and eares: ye haue allwayes resysted the holy ghost: as youre fathers dyd, so do ye.

²⁰ The God of peace shall treade Satan vnder youre fete shortly. The grace of oure Lorde Iesu Christ be with you.

²⁷ Wherfore, whosoeuer, shall eate of this bread, or dryncke of the cup of the Lorde vnworthely, shalbe gyltye of the body and bloud of the Lorde.

²⁹ For he that eateth or dryncketh vnworthely, eateth and dryncketh his awne damnacyon, because he maketh no difference of the Lordes body.

²⁷ For he hath put all thynges vnder his fete. But when he sayth all thynges are put vnder him, it is manifest that he is excepted, which dyd put all thynges vnder him.

³⁰ And greue not ye the holy sprete of God by whom ye are sealed vnto the daye of redempcyon.

⁴ For it can not be that they which were once lyghted, and haue tasted of the heauenly gyfte, & were become partakers of the holy goost,

⁶ yf they fall awaye (and as concernynge them selues crucifye the sonne of God a fresshe, and make a mocke of him) that they shulde be renued agayne by repentaunce.

¹³ For yf the bloud of oxen and of gotes & the asshes of a yong kow, when it was sprinckcled, purifieth the vnclene, as touchyng the purifyinge of the flesshe:

²⁰ saying: this is the bloud of the testament, whych God hath appoynted vnto you.

²⁰ The God of peace that brought agayne from deeth our Lorde Iesus the gret shepperde of the shepe, thorow the bloud of the euerlastyng testament,

³⁵ Uengeaunce is myne, and I wyll rewarde: their fete shall slyde in due tyme. For the daye of their destruccyon is at hande, and the thynges that shall come vpon them make haste. ³⁶ For the Lorde shall iudge hys people, and haue compassyon on hys seruauntes: whan he seyth that their power is gone, and that they be in a maner shut vp, or brought to naught and forsaken.

⁴ He shall call the heauen from aboue, and the earth, that he maye iudge hys people.

¹ O lord God to whome vengeaunce belongeth: thou God to whome vengeaunce belongeth, shewe thy selfe.

¹³ before the Lorde, for he commeth: for he commeth to iudge the earth: and with righteousnesse to iudge the worlde, and the people with his trueth.

⁹ Let the floudes clappe their handes, and let the hylles be ioyfull together. Before the Lord, for he is come to iudge the earth. Wyth ryghteousnes shall he iudge the worlde, & the people with equite.

¹⁴ For the Lord wyll auenge hys people, & be gracyous vnto his seruauntes.

¹⁷ He put ryghteousnes vpon him for a brest plate, a set the helmet of health vpon hys head. He put on wrath in steade of clothynge, & toke gelousy about hym for a cloke:

² that I myght declare the acceptable yeare of the Lorde, and the daye of the vengeaunce of oure God: that I myght comforte all them that are in heuynesse,

⁴ For the daye of vengeaunce is assigned in my hert, & the yeare when my people shall be delyuered, is come.

³⁰ As for me, I wyll iudge euery man, accordynge to his wayes, O ye house of Israel, sayeth the Lorde God. Wherfore, be conuerted, and turne you cleane from all your wyckednesse, so shall there no synne do you harme.

¹⁷ And as for you (O my shepe) sayeth the Lorde God. I wyll put a difference amonge the shepe, among the wethers & the goates.

¹⁹ Dearly beloued, auenge not youre selues, but rather geue place vnto wrath. For it is wrytten: vengeaunce is myne, I wyll rewarde, sayth the Lorde.

⁴ For he is the mynyster of God, for thy welth. But and yf thou do that which is, euyll, then feare: for he beareth not the sweard for nought: for he is the mynister of God, to take vengeaunce on hym that doth euyll.

¹⁰ For we must all appeare before the iudgement seate of Christ, that euery man maye receaue the workes of hys body accordynge to that he hath done, whether it be good or bad.

²² O consydre this, ye that forget God: lest I plucke you awaye, and there be none to delyuer you.

⁷ Thou, euen thou art to be feared: and who may stande in thy syght, when thou art angrye.

¹¹ But who regardeth the power of thy wrath, for euen therafter as a man feareth, so is thy displeasure.

²⁸ And feare ye not them which kyll the body but are not able to kyll the soule. But rather feare him, which is able to destroye both soule and body into hell.

¹⁶ Simon Peter answered & sayde: Thou art Christ the sone of the lyuynge God.

⁵ But I will shewe you, whom ye shall feare. Feare him, which after he hath kylled, hath power to cast into hell. Yee, I saye vnto you: feare him.

¹¹ and greate erthquakes shalbe in all places, and honger, and pestilence, & fearfull thinges. And greate sygnes shall ther be from heauen.

²⁷ but a fearfull lokyng for iudgement, & violent fyre, whych shall deuoure the aduersaries.

¹ Saul consented vnto hys death. And at that tyme there was a greate persecucyon agaynst the congregacyon which was at Ierusalem, and they were all scatered abrode thorowout the regyons of Iewry and Samaria, except the apostles. ² But deuout men dressed Steuen, and made great lamentacyon ouer hym. ³ As for Saul he made hauocke of the congregacyon, and entred into euery house, and drew out both men and women, and thrust them into preson.

¹ And Saul yet brethyng out threatnynges and slaughter agaynst the disciples of the Lorde, wente vnto the hye preste, ² and desyred of hym letters, to cary to Damasco, to the synagoges. that yf he founde any of thys waye, (whyther they were men or wemen) he myght brynge them bounde vnto Ierusalem.

¹⁸ to open their eyes, that they maye be turned from darckness to light, and from the power of Satan vnto God, that they maye receaue forgeuenes of synnes, and inheritaunce amonge them whych are sanctified by fayth that is toward me.

⁶ For it is God, that commaunded the lyght to shyne out of darcknes, which hath shyned in oure hertes, for to geue the lyght of the knowledge of the glory of God, in the face of Iesus Christ.

³ Are ye soche fooles, that after ye haue begonne in the sprete, ye nowe ende in the flesshe? ⁴ So many thynges ye haue suffred in vayne, yf it be also in vayne.

²⁹ for vnto you it is geuen for Chryst, that not onely ye shulde beleue on hym: but also that ye shulde suffre for hys sake, ³⁰ hauynge euen soche a fyght, as ye sawe in me, and nowe heare of me.

¹⁶ Neuerthelesse vnto that which we haue attayned vnto, lett vs proceade by one rule, that we maye be of one accorde.

¹ For I wolde that ye knewe howe greate care that I haue for you and for them that are at Laodicia, and for as many as haue not sene my parson in the flessh,

³ Thou therfore suffre afflyccyons as a good soudier of Iesu Chryst. ⁴ No man that warreth, entanglyth hym selfe wyth worldly busynes, and that because he maye please hym, whych hath chosen hym to be a soudier. ⁵ And though a man stryue for a mastery, yet is he not crowned, except he stryue laufully ⁶ The husbandman that laboureth, must fyrst receaue of the frutes. ⁷ Consyder what I saye. The Lorde geue the vnderstandynge in all thynges. ⁸ Remember that Iesus Christ of the sede of Dauid, rose agayne from deeth according to my Gospell, ⁹ wherin I suffre trouble as an euyll doar, euen vnto bondes. But the worde of God was not bounde. ¹⁰ Therfore I suffre all thynges, for the electes sakes, that they myght also obtayne the saluacion, which is in Christ Iesu, with eternall glory. ¹¹ It is a true sayinge for yf we be deed wt hym, we shall also lyue wyth hym. ¹² If we be pacient, we shall also raygne wyth hym. If we denye hym, he also shall denye vs. ¹³ If we beleue not, yet abydeth he faythfull. He cannot denye hym selfe.

⁷ I haue fought a good fyght, I haue fulfylled my course, I haue kept the fayth. ⁸ From hence forth ther is layde vp for me a crowne of ryghtewesnes, which the Lorde (that is a ryghteous iudge) shall geue me at that daye: not to me onely, but vnto all them also that loue his comminge.

⁴ For ye haue not yet resysted vnto bloud, striuynge agaynst synne.

⁸ Loke on your selues that we loose not that we haue wrought: but that we maye haue ful rewarde.

⁵ Remember therfore from whence thou art fallen, & repent, and do the fyrst worckes. Or elles I wyll come vnto the shortly, & wyll remoue thy candelsticke out of his place, except thou repent.

³ Remember therfore, how thou hast receaued & heard, & hold faste, & repent. If thou shalt not watche, I wyll come on the as a thefe, & thou shalt not know what houre I wyll come vpon the.

⁹ For the zele of thyne house hath euen eaten me, and the rebukes of them that rebuked the are fallen vpon me.

⁷ Oh let my mouth be fylled with thy prayse and honour all the daye longe.

²² O let not the symple go awaye ashamed, but let the poore and nedy geue prayse vnto thy name.

¹² O let the sorowfull syghyng of the presoners come before the: accordyng vnto the greatnesse of thy power, preserue thou those that are appoynted to dye.

⁵¹ Remember (Lorde) the rebuke that thy seruauntes haue & how I do beare in my bosome thy rebukes of many people.

⁷ Herken vnto me, ye that haue pleasure in righteousnes, thou people that bearest my lawe in thyne hert. Feare not the curse of men: be not afrayde of their blasphemyes and reuylinges:

⁶ I will cast dyrte vpon the, to make the be abhorred, & a gasynge stocke:

⁸ Heare (O Iesua) thou hye preste, thou and thy frends that dwell before the, for they are wonderous people. Behold, I wyl bring forth the braunches of my seruaunt:

⁹ For me thynketh, that God hath set forth vs (which are the last Apostles) as it were men appoynted to deeth. For we are a gasynge stocke vnto the worlde, and to the Angels, and to men.

¹⁰ And he sayde vnto me: my grace is sufficient for the. For my strength is made parfect thorow weaknes. Uery gladly therfore wyll I reioyce of my weaknes, that the strength of Christ maye dwell in me.

⁷ as it becommeth me, so iudge I of you all, because I haue you in my herte: for asmoche as ye all are companyons of grace with me, euen in my bondes, and in the defendynge and stablisshynge of the Gospell.

¹⁴ Not withstandynge ye haue well done, that ye bare parte wt me in my tribulacion.

¹⁴ For ye brethren became folowers of the cogregacyons of God whych in Iewry are in Christ Iesu: for ye haue suffred lyke thynges of youre kynsmen, as we oure selues haue suffered of the Iewes.

⁸ Be not thou therfore ashamed of the testimony of oure Lorde, nether be ashamed of me whych am his presoner: but suffre thou aduersytie with the Gospell, accordynge to the power of God,

¹⁶ The Lorde geue mercye vnto the housholde of Onesyphorus for he ofte refreshed me, and was not ashamed of my chayne: ¹⁷ but when he was at Rome, he sought me out very diligently, & founde me. ¹⁸ The Lorde graunt vnto hym that he maye fynde mercye with the Lorde at that daye. And in howe many thynges he ministred vnto me at Ephesus, thou knowest very well.

²⁶ and estemed the rebuke of Christ greater riches then the treasures of Egypt. For he had respect vnto the rewarde.

³⁶ Agayne, other were tried wt mockynges & scourginges moreouer, wt bondes & presonment:

¹³ Let vs goo forth therfore vnto hym, out of the tentes, and suffer rebuke with hym.

¹¹ Blessed are ye, when men reuyle you, and persecute you, and shall falesy say all maner of euyll sayinge against you, for my sake. ¹² Reioyse & be glad for greate is your rewarde in heuen. For so persecuted they the prophetes, which were before you.

¹⁹ Laye not vp for your selues treasure vpon earth, where the rust and mothe doth corrupte, and where theues breake through, and steale. ²⁰ But laye vp for you, treasures in heuen, where nether rust nor mothe doth corrupte, and where theues do not breake thorow nor steale.

²¹ Iesus sayd vnto hym, yf thou wilt be perfecte go & sell that thou hast, & geue to the poore, & shall haue treasure in heauen, & come & folowe me.

⁴² verely one is nedefull. Mary hath chosen the good parte, which shall not be taken awaye from her.

³³ Sell that ye haue, and geue almes. And prepare you bagges, which wexe not olde, euen a treasure that fayleth not in heauen, where no thefe commeth, nether moth corrupteth.

⁴¹ And they departed from the counsell, I reioysinge, that they were counted worthy, to suffre rebuke for his name.

³³ Then the captayne cam neare and toke hym, and commaunded hym to be bounde with two chaynes, and demaunded what he was, and what he had done.

²⁰ For thys cause then haue I called for you, euen to se you, and to speake wyth you: because that for the hope of Israel I am bounde wt this cheyne.

¹ For we knowe that yf oure erthy mancion of this dwellyng were destroyed, we haue a byldinge of God, an habitacyon not made with handes, but eternall in heauen.

¹ For this cause, I Paul am a presoner of Iesus Chryst for you Hethen:

¹ I therfore (which am a presonner of the Lordes) exhorte you, that ye walke worthy of the vocacyon wherwith ye are called,

²⁰ (wherof I am messenger in bondes) that therin I maye speake frely, as I ought to speake.

⁵ for the hopes sake which is layd vp in store for you in heauen, of which hope, ye herde before by the true worde of the Gospell,

² Set youre affeccyon on heauenly thynges, and not on erthye thynges. ³ For ye are deed, and youre lyfe is hyd with Chryst in God. ⁴ Whensoeuer Chryst (which is oure lyfe) shall shewe hym selfe, then shall ye also appeare with hym in glory.

¹⁹ laying vp in store for them selues a good fundacion against the tyme to come, that they maye obtayne eternall lyfe.

¹⁶ The Lorde geue mercye vnto the housholde of Onesyphorus for he ofte refreshed me, and was not ashamed of my chayne:

⁹ wherin I suffre trouble as an euyll doar, euen vnto bondes. But the worde of God was not bounde.

⁸ From hence forth ther is layde vp for me a crowne of ryghtewesnes, which the Lorde (that is a ryghteous iudge) shall geue me at that daye: not to me onely, but vnto all them also that loue his comminge.

¹⁶ but now they desyre a better (that is to saye) a heauenly. Wherfore God himselfe is not ashamed to be called theyr God for he hath prepared for them a citye.

² My brethren, count it for an excedyng ioye, when ye fall into diuers temptacyons:

⁴ to an inherytaunce immortall and vndefyled, and that perissheth not, reserued in heauen for you,

² Dearely beloued, now are we the sonnes of God & yet it doth not appeare, what we shalbe. But we knowe, that when it shall appeare, we shalbe lyke him. For we shall se hym as he is.

¹¹ Moreouer, by them is thy seruaunt taught, & in kepynge of them there is greate rewarde.

¹² Reioyse & be glad for greate is your rewarde in heuen. For so persecuted they the prophetes, which were before you.

³² Euery one therfore that shall knowledge me before men, him will I knowledge also before my father which is in heauen.

⁴² And whosoeuer shall geue vnto one of these lytle ones to dryncke, a cuppe of colde water onely (in the name of a disciple) verely I saye vnyou, he shall not lose his rewarde.

¹⁴ & thou shalt be happy, for they can not recompence the But thou shalt be recompensed at the resurreccyon of the iuste men.

⁵⁸ Therfore my deare brethren, be ye stedfast and vnmouable, alwayes ryche in the worke of the Lorde, for as moch as ye knowe, how that youre labour, is not in vayne in the Lorde.

⁸ For he that soweth in his flesshe, shall of the flesshe reape corrupcyon. But he that soweth in the sprete, shall of the sprete reape lyfe euerlastynge. ⁹ Let vs not be wery of well doinge. For when the tyme is come, we shall reape without werynesse. ¹⁰ Whyle we haue therfore tyme, lett vs do good vnto all men, and specially vnto them which are of the housholde of fayth.

⁷ Holde the styll in the Lorde, & abyde pacyently vpon him: but greue not thy selfe at hym, whose waye doth prospere agenst the man that doth after euell councels.

¹ To the chaunter, a Psalme of Dauid. I Wayted paciently for the Lord, & he enclyned vnto me: and hearde my calling.

²¹ Not euery one that sayth vnto me, Lord, Lord, shall enter into the kyngdome of heauen: but he that doth the wyll of my father, which is in heauen.

²² & ye shalbe hated of all men for my name sake. But he that endureth to the ende, shalbe saued.

⁵⁰ For whosoeuer doth the will of my father which is in heauen, the same is my brother, syster, and mother.

³¹ Whether of them twayne dyd the wyll of the father? And they saye vnto him: the fyrst. Iesus sayeth vnto them: verely I saye vnto you, the publicans & harlotes go into the kyngdom of God before you.

¹³ But he that endureth to the ende, the same shalbe safe.

¹⁵ That which fell in the good grounde, are they, which with a pure and good herte heare the worde, and kepe it, and brynge forth frute thorow pacyence.

¹⁹ Possesse ye youre soule by pacience.

¹⁷ If eny man wyll be obedient vnto his wyll, he shall knowe of the doctrine, whether it be of God, or whether I speake of my selfe.

²² And whan he was put downe, he sett vp Dauid to be theyr kynge, of whom he repported saying: I haue founde Dauid the sonne of Iesse, a man after myne awne hert, which shall fulfyll all my wyll.

³⁶ For Dauid (after he had in hys tyme fulfylled the wyll of God) fell on slepe, and was layde vnto hys fathers, and sawe corrupcyon.

⁷ that is to saye, prayse, honoure and immortalite, to them whych contynue in good doyng; and seke immortalite.

³ Not that onely: but also we reioyce in tribulacyons: knowyng that tribulacyon bryngeth pacience, ⁴ pacience bryngeth experience, experience bryngeth hope.

²⁵ But and yf we hope for that we se not, then do we wt pacience abyde for it.

² & fassyon not youre selues lyke vnto this worlde: but be ye chaunged in youre shape, by the renuyng of your mynde, that ye maye proue what thynge that good, and acceptable, and perfaycte wyll of God is.

⁴ Whatsoeuer thinges are written afore tyme, they are written for our learnynge, that we thorow pacience and comforte of the scriptures, myght haue hope. ⁵ The God of pacyence and consolacyon, graunt you, to be lyke mynded one towardes another, after the ensample of Chryst Iesu:

⁷ suffreth all thynges, beleueth all thynges, hopeth all thynges, endureth all thynges.

⁹ Let vs not be wery of well doinge. For when the tyme is come, we shall reape without werynesse.

⁶ not doynge seruice vnto the eye, as they that go about to please men: but as the seruauntes of Christ, doynge the wyll of God from the herte

¹¹ strengthed with all myght, thorowe hys glorious power, vnto all pacience and longe sufferynge with ioyfulnes

²⁴ knowynge, that of the Lord ye shall receaue the rewarde of inheritaunce, for ye serue the Lorde Christ.

¹² Epaphras the seruaunt of Chryst, (which is one of you) saluteth you, and all wayes laboureth feruently for you in prayers, that ye maye stande perfect and full, in all the wyll of God.

¹² that ye faynt not, but be folowers of them, which thorowe fayth and pacience receaue the enheritaunce of the promyse.

¹⁵ And so after that he had taried paciently, he enioyed the promes.

¹⁷ So God wyllinge very aboundantly to shewe vnto the heyres of promes, the stablenes of his counsayl, added an oth:

¹⁵ And for this cause is he the mediator of the new testament, that thorow deeth which chaunsed, for the redempcion of those transgressions that were vnder the fyrst testament they whych are called, myght receaue the promes of eternall inheritaunce.

¹ Wherfore, let vs also (seyng that we are compassed with so great a multitude of witnesses) laye awaye all that presseth doune, and the synne that hangeth so fast on, let vs runne with pacience vnto the battayle that is set before vs,

²¹ make you parfect in all good workes, to do hys wyll, and bryng to passe, that the thyng which ye do, maye be pleasaunt in his syght thorowe Iesus Christ. To whom be prayse for euer whyle the world endureth. Amen.

³ knowyng this, that the trying of your fayth gendreth pacience: ⁴ and let pacience haue her parfect worke, that ye maye be parfecte and sounde, lackyng nothyng.

⁷ Be pacient therfore brethren, vnto the commynge of the Lord. Beholde, the husbande man wayteth for the precyous frute of the earth, & hath longe pacience ther vpon, vntyll he receaue the early & the latter rayne. ⁸ Be ye also pacient therfore, and settle youre hertes, for the commynge of the Lorde draweth nye. ⁹ Grudge not one agaynst another brethren lest ye be damned. Beholde, the iudge standeth before the dore. ¹⁰ Take (my brethren) the Prophetes for an ensample of sufferinge aduersytie, and of pacience, which spake in the name of the Lorde. ¹¹ Beholde, we counte them happy which endure. Ye haue heard of the pacience of Iob, and haue knowen what ende the Lorde made. For the Lord is very pitiefull and mercyfull.

⁹ receauyge the ende of your fayth, euen the saluacyon of youre soules.

¹⁷ And the worlde passeth awaye and the lust therof: but he that fulfylleth the will of God, abydeth for euer.

¹⁰ He that leadeth into captyuyte, shall go into captyuyte: he that kylleth with a swearde, must be kylled with a swearde. Heare is the pacyence, & the fayth of the saynctes.

¹² Here is the pacyence of saynctes Heare are they that kepe the commaundementes and the fayth of Iesu.

²⁰ Come my people, enter thou into thy chambers, and shut thy dores about the: hyde thy selfe a lytle for a whyle, vntyll the indignation be ouerpast.

²² Thy yongest and leest shall growe in to a thousande, and the symplest in to a stronge people. I the Lorde shall shortly bringe this thinge to passe in his tyme.

³ for the vision is yet farre of for a tyme, but at the last it shal come to passe, & not fayle. And though he tary, yet wayte thou for him, for in very dede he will come, & not be slacke. ⁴ Beholde, the vnrighteouse thinketh him selfe in sauegarde as in a strong holde: but the iust shal lyue by his fayth.

⁸ I tell you that he will auenge them, & that quickly. Neuerthelesse, when the sonne of man commeth, shall he fynde fayth on the erth?

⁷ Be pacient therfore brethren, vnto the commynge of the Lord. Beholde, the husbande man wayteth for the precyous frute of the earth, & hath longe pacience ther vpon, vntyll he receaue the early & the latter rayne. ⁸ Be ye also pacient therfore, and settle youre hertes, for the commynge of the Lorde draweth nye. ⁹ Grudge not one agaynst another brethren lest ye be damned. Beholde, the iudge standeth before the dore.

⁸ Dearly beloued, be not ignoraunt of this one thinge, howe that one daye is with the Lorde as a thousande yeare, & a thousande yeare as one daye.

²⁰ He whych testifyeth these thynges, sayeth: be it. I come quyckly. Amen. Euen so come Lorde Iesu.

⁴ For thou arte the God that hath no pleasure in wyckednes, nether shall any euell dwell with the.

⁸ I wyll herken what the Lorde God will saye: for he shall speake peace vnto his people and to hys saynctes, that they turne not agayne.

⁴ For the Lorde hath pleasure in hys people, and helpeth the meke harted.

¹ Beholde, this is my seruaunte vpon whom I leane, myne electe, In whom my soule is pacifyed. I haue geuen hym my sprete, that he maye shewe forth iudgement and equitye among the Gentiles.

²⁰ Nowe yf a ryghteous man go from his ryghteousnesse, and do the thynge that is euell: I will laye a stomblynge blocke before him, and he shall dye because thou hast not geuen hym warnyng: yee, dye shall he in hys awne synne, so that the vertue, whych he dyd before, shall not be thought vpon: but his bloude wyll I requyre of thyne hande.

²⁴ Agayne: yf the ryghtuous turne awaye from his ryghtuousnes, and do iniquyte, accordynge to all the abhominacyons, that the wicked man doth: shall he lyue? All the ryghtuousnes that he hath done, shall not be thought vpon: but in the faute that he hath offended withall, and in the synne that he hath done, he shall dye.

⁴ Beholde, the vnrighteouse thinketh him selfe in sauegarde as in a strong holde: but the iust shal lyue by his fayth.

⁶ which starte a backe from the Lord, and nether seke after the Lord ner regarde hym.

¹⁸ Beholde, my childe, whom I haue chosen, my beloued, in whom my soule deliteth. I wyll put my sprete vpon him, and he shall shewe iudgement to the gentyls.

²¹ yet hath he no rote in hym selfe, but dureth for a season: for whan tribulacyon or persecucyon happeneth because of the worde, by and by he falleth.

¹⁷ For by it is the ryghtewesnes of God opened from fayth to fayth.

¹¹ That no man is iustifyed by the lawe in the syght of God, it is euydent. For the iuste shall lyue by fayth.

¹⁵ Whych as they kylled the Lorde Iesus, and theyr awne Prophetes, euen so haue they persecuted vs: and God they please not, and are contrary to al men,

²⁶ For yf we synne wyllfully after that we haue receaued the knowledge of the trueth, ther remayneth nomore sacryfyce for synnes, ²⁷ but a fearfull lokyng for iudgement, & violent fyre, whych shall deuoure the aduersaries.

¹⁹ while they promes them libertie, where as they them selues are the bonde seruauntes of corruption. For of whom a man is ouer come, vnto the same is he brought in bondage.

¹⁹ They went out from vs, but they were not of vs. For yf they had bene of vs, they wolde no dout haue continued with vs. But that it myght appeare, that they were not of vs.

¹¹ it repenteth me, that I haue made Saul kynge. For he is turned from me, and hath not parfourmed my commaundementes. And Samuel was euell apayed, and cried vnto the Lorde all nyght.

¹⁸ And though all this be come vpon vs, yet do we not forgette the, ner behaue oure selues frowardly in thy couenaunt.

³² for the turnynge awaye of the vnwyse shall sleye them, and the prosperytie of fooles shalbe their awne destruccyon.

¹⁴ A backslydynge hert shalbe fylled wt his awne wayes, but a good man shall lyue of his frutes.

¹⁶ he that beleueth & is baptised, shalbe saued. But he that beleueth not, shalbe dampned.

²⁶ Then goeth he and taketh to him seuen other spretes worse then him selfe: and they enter in, & dwell there. And the ende of that man, is worse then the begynnynge.

¹⁵ that whosoeuer beleueth in him, perysshe not, but haue eternall lyfe. ¹⁶ For God so loue the worlde, that, he gaue is only begotten sonne, that whosoeuer beleueth in him, shulde not perisshe, but haue euerlastyng lyfe.

²⁴ Uerely, verely I saye vnto you. He that heareth my worde, & beleueth on him that sent me, hath euerlasting lyfe, and shall not come into damnacyon: but is scaped from deeth vnto lyfe.

⁴⁰ And thys is the will of him that sent me: that euery one whych seeth the sonne and beleueth on him, haue euerlasting lyfe. And I wyll rayse him vp at the last daye.

¹² Whyle I was with them in the world, I kepte them in thy name. Those that thou gauest me, haue I kepte, and none of them is lost, but that lost childe, that the scripture might be fulfilled.

³¹ These are written, that ye myght beleue, that Iesus is Chryst the sonne of God, and that (in beleuyng) ye myght haue lyfe thorow hys name.

³⁰ and brought them out, & sayde: Syrs what must I do to be saued? ³¹ And they sayde: beleue on the Lorde Iesus, & thou shalt be saued & thy housholde.

⁹ For yf thou knowledge with thy mouth that Iesus is the Lorde, & beleue in thyne hert, that God raysed hym vp from deeth, thou shalt be safe. ¹⁰ For to beleue wt the hert iustyfyeth: and to knowledge with the mouth, maketh a man safe.

⁹ For God hath not appoynted vs to prouoke wrath vnto oure selues, but to obtayne saluacyon by the meanes of oure Lorde Iesu Christ

³ Let no man deceaue you by eny meanes, for the Lorde shall not come excepte ther come a departynge fyrst, and that that synfull man be opened, the sonne of perdicyon,

¹² that all they myght be damned, whych beleued not the trueth: but had pleasure in vnryghtewesnes. ¹³ But we are bounde to geue thankes alwey to God for you (brethren beloued of the Lorde) for because that God hath from the begynnynge chosen you to saluacyon, thorowe sanctifyinge of the sprete, and thorow beleuing of the trueth, ¹⁴ wher vnto he called you by oure Gospell, to obtayne the glorye of oure Lord Iesu Christ.

⁹ They that wylbe ryche, fall into temptacyon and snares, & into many folysshe & noysome lustes, which droune men into perdicyon & destruccyon.

⁶ yf they fall awaye (and as concernynge them selues crucifye the sonne of God a fresshe, and make a mocke of him) that they shulde be renued agayne by repentaunce. ⁷ For the erth which dryncketh in the rayne that commeth oft vpon it, and bringeth forth herbes mete for them that dresse it, receaueth blessinge of God. ⁸ But that grounde which beareth thornes and bryars, is reproued, and is nye vnto cursynge: whose ende is to be burned. ⁹ Neuerthelesse (deare frendes) we trust to se better of you, and thynges which accompany saluacion, though we thus speake.

²⁶ For yf we synne wyllfully after that we haue receaued the knowledge of the trueth, ther remayneth nomore sacryfyce for synnes,

¹ Fayth is a sure confydence of thynges, whych are hoped for, & a certayntie of thynges whych are not sene.

⁵ whych are kept by the power of of God thorow fayth, vnto saluacion, whych is prepared allready to be shewed in the last tyme,

⁷ But the heauens and erth whych are now, be kept by hys worde in store, and reserued vnto fyre, agaynst the daye of iudgement & perdicion of vngodly men.

⁵ Who is it that ouercommeth the worlde: but he which beleueth, that Iesus is the sonne of God?

¹² These are spottes which of your kidnes feast together, wt out feare, lyuinge lawlesse, and after ther awne pleasure. Cloudes they are with out water, caryed about of windes, trees wt out frute at geatheringe time withered, twyse deed, & plucked vp by the rotes. ¹³ They are the ragynge waues of the see, fomynge out their awne shame. They are wandrynge sterres, to whom is reserued the myst of darcknes for euer.

⁸ The beast that thon seest, was, and is not, and shall ascende out of the bottomlesse pyt, and shall go into perdicion, & they that dwel on the erth shall wondre (whose names are not written in the boke of lyfe from the begynnynge of the worlde) when they behold the beast that was and is not.

¹¹ And the beast that was, & is not, is euen the eyght and is one of the seuen, and shall go into destruccion.
