¹ Of Dauid. Prayse the Lord, O my soule, and all that is wtin me prayse his holy name. ² Prayse the Lorde, O my soule, and forget not all hys benefytes.

² Awake thou lute and harpe, I my selfe wyll awake ryght early.

² The people shal take them, & cary them home to their awne lande. And make them to enherite the house of Israel in the lande of the Lord that they maye be seruauntes & hand maydens of the Lord. They shal take those prisoners whose captyues they had bene a fore: & rule those that had oppressed them.

¹ Wo to the that destroiest, when thou waste not destroyed, thou breakest the leage, where as none hath broken it with the: for when thou shalt leaue destroying, thou thy self shalt be destroyed. And when thou ceasest from breakinge the leage, then shall they breake it to the.

²⁴ Who spoyled the gyaunte of his praye? or who taketh the presoner from the mightye? ²⁵ And therfore, thus sayeth the Lorde. The prisoners shalbe taken from the gyaunte, and the spoyle delyuered from the violente: for I wyll maynteyne thy cause agaynst thyne aduersaryes, and saue thy sonnes. ²⁶ And wyll fede thyne enemyes with theyr awne fleshe, and make them drynke of their awne bloude, as of swete wyne. And all flessh shall knowe, O Iacob, that I am the Lorde thy sauiour, thy noble redemer.

⁹ Wake vp, wake vp: and be stronge. O thou arme of the Lorde, wake vp, lyke as in tyme past, euer and sence the worlde beganne.

¹⁷ Awake, awake, and stande vp, O Ierusalem, thou that from the hande of the Lord, hast droncken out the cuppe of hys wrath: thou that hast supped of, and sucked out the dregges of his deadly cuppe to the botome.

¹ Vp Sion vp, take thy strength vnto the: put on thyne honest rayment O Ierusalem, thou holy citie. For from thys tyme forth, there shall no vncircumcysed ner vncleane person come in the. ² Shake the from the dust, aryse & stande vp, O Ierusalem. Plucke out thy neck from the bonde: O thou captiue daughter Sion.

¹ Get the vp by tymes, & be bryght, for thy lyght commeth, & the glory of the Lorde is rysen vp vpon the.

²⁶ When I hearde thys, I came agayne to my selfe, I mused, lyke as I had bene waked oute of a swete slepe.

³⁴ Awake truely out of slepe, and synne not. For some haue not the knowledge of God: I speake this to youre shame.

⁸ Wherfore he sayth: whan he went vp an hye, he ledde captiuitye captyue, and gaue gyftes vnto men.

¹⁴ Wherfore he sayth: awake thou that slepest, and stonde vp from deeth, and Chryst shall geue the lyght.

²⁶ and that they maye come to them selues agayne out of the snare of the deuyll, which are holden captiue of hym at hys wyll.

¹⁴ They lye in the hell lyke shepe, death gnaweth vpon them, and the ryghteous shall haue dominacyon of them in the mornynge: theyr bewtye shall consume in the sepulchre out of theyr dwellynge.

⁷ For promocion commeth nether from the East, ner from the west, ner yet from the south.

¹⁵ Beholde, I wyll make the a treading cart and a new flayle, that thou mayst thresshe and grinde the mountaynes, and brynge the hylles to poulder. ¹⁶ Thou shalt fanne them and the wynde shall carye them awaye, and the whirlwynde shall scater them. But thou shalt reioyse in the Lorde, and shalt delyte in praysinge the holy one of Israel.

²⁴ And all the trees of the felde shall knowe that I the Lorde haue brought downe the hye tree, and set the lowe tree vp: that I haue dryed vp the grene tree, and made the drye tree to floryshe: Euen I the Lorde that spake it, haue also brought it to passe.

¹⁸ These shall take in the kyngdome of the saynctes of the most hyest, and possesse it styll more & more for a longe season. ¹⁹ After thys I requyred diligently to knowe the trueth, concerning the fourth beast, which was so farre vnlyke the other beastes, and so horrible: whose teeth were of yron, and his nayles of brasse: which deuoured and destroyed and stamped the resydue vnder his fete. ²⁰ I desyred, also to knowe the trueth, as touchynge the ten hornes that he had vpon his heade, and thys other which came vp afterwarde, before whose face there fell downe thre, which horne had eyes and a mouth that spake presumptuous thinges, and loked with a grymmer visage then hys felowes. ²¹ I behelde, and the same horne made battayll agaynst the saynctes, yee and gat the victory of them, ²² vntyll the tyme that the olde aged came, that the iudgement was geuen to the chefest saintes: and tyll the tyme that the sayntes had the kyngdome in possessyon. ²³ He gaue me thys answere. That fourth beaste shalbe the fourth kyngdome vpon earth: it shalbe more then all other kyngdomes, it shall deuoure, treade downe, and destroye all other landes. ²⁴ The ten hornes, are ten kynges, that shall aryse out of the kyngdome, after whom there shall stande vp another, which shalbe greater then the fyrst. ²⁵ He shall subdue thre kynges, & shall speake wordes agaynst the hyest of all: he shall destroye the sayntes of the most hyest, and thyncke, that he maye chaunge tymes and lawes. They shalbe geuen vnder hys power, vntyll a tyme, two tymes, & halfe a tyme. ²⁶ But the iudgement shalbe kepte, so that hys power shalbe taken from him, for he shall be destroyed, and peryssh at the last. ²⁷ As for the kyngdome, power and all might that is vnder the heauen: it shalbe geuen to the holy people of the moost hyest, whose kyngdome is euerlastynge: yee, all powers shall serue and obeye hym.

³⁷ Neuerthelesse, in all these thynges we ouercome thorowe hym that loued vs.

²⁶ & whosoeuer ouercommeth & kepeth my workes vnto the ende, to hym wyll I geue power ouer nacyons, ²⁷ & he shall rule them wt a rodde of yron: & as the vessels of a potter, shall they be broken to sheuers. Euen as I receaued of my father,

⁹ Beholde, I make them of the congregacyon of Sathan, whych call them selues Iewes, and are not, but do lye: Beholde, I wyll make them that they shall come, and worshypp before thy fete: and shall knowe, that I haue loued the.

⁸ Then came Amalech and fought with Israel in Raphidim. ⁹ And Moses sayde vnto Iosua: chose vs oute men, and goo fyghte with Amalech. And tomorow I will stonde on the toppe of the hyll, and the rodd of God shalbe in my hande. ¹⁰ Iosua did as Moses bade hym, & foughte with Amalech. And Moses, and Aaron, & Hur went vp to the toppe of the hyll. ¹¹ And it happened, that when Moses helde vp his hande, Israel had the better. And when he late hys hande downe, Amalech had the better. ¹² But Moses handes were heuye, and therfore they toke a stone and put it vnder hym, and he satt downe there on. And Aaron and Hur stayed vp his handes, the one on the one syde and the other on the other syde. And hys handes remayned stedye vntyll the goynge downe of the sonne. ¹³ And Iosua discomfeted Amalech and hys people, with the edge of the swerde. ¹⁴ And the Lorde sayde vnto Moses: writte thys for a remembraunce in a boke, and commite it vnto the eares of Iosua, for I will vtterly put out the remembraunce of Amalech from vnder heauen. ¹⁵ And Moses made an alter and called the name of it. The Lorde is he that worketh myracles for me. ¹⁶ For he sayde: the hande is on the seate of God the Lorde wyll haue warre with Amalech from generacyon to generacyon.

³⁹ And the children of Machir the sonne of Manasse went to Gilead, and toke it, & put out the Amorites that dwelt therin. ⁴⁰ And Moses gaue Gilead vnto Machir the sonne of Manasse, and he dwelt therin.

¹³ And this (Eglon) geathered vnto hym the children of Ammon, and the Amalekites, and went and smote Israel, & conquered the citye of Paulme trees.

²⁷ And when he was come he blewe a trompette in mount Ephraim. And the chyldren of Israel went downe wyth hym from the hyll and he went before them.

¹⁰ And Barak called Zabulon & Nephthalim to kedes, & led after hym ten thousande men: and Debora went vp with him.

¹⁴ And Debora sayde vnto Barak: vp, for this is the daye in which the Lorde hath delyuered Sisara into thyne hande: Is not the Lorde gone out before the? And so Barak went downe from mount Thabor, & ten thousande men after him.

¹⁵ he dyed, & was buryed in Pharthon in the lande of Ephraim, in the mount of the Amalekites.

⁶ And she sent & called Barak the sonne of Abinoam, out of Kedes Nephthalim, and sayde vnto him. Hath not the Lord God of Israel commaunded the, to leade wt faire wordes men to mounte Thabor, and take with the ten thousande men, of the children of Nephthalim & of the children of Zabulon?

³² And of the chyldren of Isacar, which were men that had understandynge in the ryght tyme, to knowe what Israel ought to do. The heedes of them were two hundred and all their brethren were at their wyll.

¹³ The slouthfull body sayeth: there is a lyon without, I myght be slayn in the strete.

³⁹ And the contencion was so sharpe betwene them: that they departed asunder one from the other & so Barnabas toke Marcke, and sayled vnto Cypers.

¹³ And we went afore to shyppe, & lowsed vnto Asson there to receaue Paul. For so had he appoynted, and wolde hym selfe goo a fote.

² For I am gelous ouer you wt godly gelousye: For I haue coupled you to one man, that ye shulde make your selues a chaste virgin vnto Christ.

¹ The chyldren Ruben and the chyldren of Gad had an exceadynge greate multitude of catell. And when they sawe the lande of Iazer and the lande of Gilead that it was apte place for catell, ² the chyldren of Ruben and the chyldren of Gad came & spake vnto Moses and Eleazar the preast and vnto the lordes of the congregacyon, saying: ³ The lande of Ataroth and Dibon, Iazer and Nemrah, Hesbon and Elealeh, Sabam and Nebo and Beon: ⁴ which contreye the Lorde smote before the congregacyon of Israel: is a lande mete for a catell, and we thy seruauntes haue catell: ⁵ wherfore (sayde they) yf we haue founde grace in thy syght, let this land be geuen vnto thy seruauntes to possesse, and bryng vs not ouer Iordan.

²⁴ Nowe therfore, buylde cityes for youre chyldren, and foldes for your shepe, and do that ye haue spoken.

¹⁵ And of Isachar, there were prynces with Debora, Isachar also and Barac were sent on their fete into the valley, whan in the departing awaye of Ruben there were greate men, and wyse of hert?

⁴ Stonde in awe, and synne not: comen with youre awne herte, and in youre chamber, and be styll. Sela.

⁶ I call to remembraunce my songe: and in the nyght I commune with myne awne hert, and search out my spretes.

⁴⁰ Let vs loke, well vpon our awne wayes and remembre oure selues, and turne againe to the Lorde. ⁴¹ Let vs lyfte vp oure hertes with oure handes vnto the Lorde that is in heauen.

²¹ For all other seke theyr awne, and not the thynges which are Iesus Christes.

¹⁹ whose ende is damnacion, whose God is theyr belly and glory to theyr shame, which are worldely mynded.

²⁵ And theyr costes were Iazer, & all the cyties of Gilead, and halfe the lande of the chyldren of Ammon, vnto Aroer that lyeth before Rabba.

³¹ & halfe Gilead, Astaroth, & Edrai, cyties of the kyngdome of Og in Basan whiche pertayne vnto the chyldren of Machir the sonne of Manasses, euen the halfe porcion of the chyldren of Machir by theyr kynredes.

²⁴ And the fifte lotte cam out for the trybe of the children of Aser by their kynredes. ²⁵ And their coaste was: Helkath, Hali, Beten & Achsap: ²⁶ Alamelech, Amaad and Miseal: & came to Carmel westwarde, & to Sihor Labanath, ²⁷ and turneth towarde the sonne rysyng to Bethdagon, and commeth to Zabulon & to the valeye of Iephthahell, towarde the northsyde of Bethemek & Negel, & goeth out on the lifte syde of Cabul: ²⁸ & to Hebron, Rohob, Ramon, & kanah, euen vnto great Sidon. ²⁹ And then the coast turneth to Ramah and to the strong cytie of Zor, and turneth to Hozah, & endeth at the see, by the possession of Achzibah: ³⁰ Amah also & Aphek and Rohob: Twentye and two cities with their villages. ³¹ This is the enheritaunce of the children of Aser by their kynredes: These are the cyties with their villages.

¹⁶ Go thou thy waye, and gether together all the Iewes that are found at Susan, and fast ye for me, that ye eat not and drynke not in thre dayes, nether daye nor nyght. I and my damosels will fast lykewise, and so will I go into the kyng, which thing yet, is contrary to the commaundment: and yf I perishe, I perishe.

²⁴ But none of these thinges moue me nether is my lyfe deare vnto my selfe, that I might fulfyll my course with ioye, and the ministracyon which I haue receaued of the Lorde Iesu, to testifye the Gospell of the grace of God.

¹⁶ Herby perceaue we loue: because he gaue his lyfe for vs: & we ought to geue oure liues for the brethren.

¹¹ And they ouercame him by the bloude of the lambe, and by the worde of their testimony, & they loued not their lyues vnto the deeth.

¹⁶ And Cain wente out from the presence of the Lorde, & dwelt in the londe of Nod eastward from Eden.

²² And Abram answered the kynge of Sodome: I haue lyfte vp my hande vnto the Lorde the hye God possessor of heauen and erth,

²² Then sayde Iosua: open the mouth of the caue, and bryng oute these .v. kynges vnto me oute of the caue. ²³ And they dyd so, and brought those fyue kynges vnto hym, oute of the caue, euen the kynge of Ierusalem, the kyng of Hebron, the kyng of Iarmuth, the kyng of Lachis, and the kynge of Eglon. ²⁴ And it fortuned, that when they brought oute those kynges vnto Iosua: Iosua called for all the men of Israell, and sayde vnto the chefe of the men of warre, which wente with hym: come nere, & put youre fete vpon the neckes of these kynges. And they cam neare: and put their fete vpon the neckes of them. ²⁵ And Iosua sayde vnto them: Ye shall not feare, ner be faynt harted. But be strong and plucke vp youre hertes, for thus shall the Lorde do to all youre enemyes agaynst whom ye fyght. ²⁶ And then Iosua smote them, and slewe them, & hanged them on fyue trees. And they hanged still vpon the trees vntill the euening. ²⁷ And at the going doune of the sonne it fortuned that Iosua gaue commaundement, and they toke them doune of the trees, and cast them into the caue, (where in they had bene hyd), & layed great stones on the caues mouthe, which remayne vnto this daye.

¹ And it fortuned, that when Iabin kyng of Hazor had hearde those thinges: he sent to Iobab kynge of Madon, & to the kyng of Simron, and to the kynge of Achsaph, ² and vnto the kynges that are by northe in the mountaynes, & playnes toward the southesyde of Ceneroth, and in the lowe countreys, & in the borders of Dor westward ³ and vnto the Cananytes bothe by Easte & weste, & vnto the Amorites, Hethites, Pheresites, and Iebusites in the mountaynes: & vnto the Heuites that were vnder Hermon in the lande of Mizpa: ⁴ And they came out and all their hostes with them, a multytude of folke, euen as the sande that is on the see shore in a greate nombre with horsses & charettes exceding manye. ⁵ And all these kynges mett together, and came, and pytched together at the waters of Merom, for to fight agaynst Israell. ⁶ And the Lorde sayde vnto Iosua: be not afrayde at the presence of them: for tomorowe aboute this tyme will I delyuer then all slayne before Israell: thou shalt hough their horsses, & burne their charettes with fire. ⁷ And so Iosua came and all the men of warre with hym agaynst them by the waters of Merom, & sodenlye fell vpon them. ⁸ And the Lorde delyuered them into the hande of Israell: and they smote them, and chased them vnto great Sidon, & vnto the whott waters, and vnto the valeye of Mizpa which is Eastwarde: and smote them vntyll they had none remaynyng of them. ⁹ And Iosua dyd vnto them, as the Lorde bad hym: he houghed their horsses, and burnt their charettes with fyer. ¹⁰ And Iosua at that tyme turned backe, & toke Hazor, & smote the kyng therof with the swerde. And Hazor before tyme was the head of all those kingdomes. ¹¹ And they smote all the soules that were therin with the edge of the swerde, vtterlye destroying all: & nothing that breathed, was let remayne. And he burnt Hazor wt fyer. ¹² And all the cyties of those kynges, and all the kynges of them, dyd Iosua take, and smote them wyth the edge of the swerde, and vtterlye destroyed them as Moses the seruaunt of the Lorde commaunded. ¹³ But Israell burnt none of the cyties that stode styll in their strength, saue Hazor onlye that Iosua burnt, ¹⁴ And all the spoyle of the sayde cyties and the catell, the children of Israel caught vnto them selues. But the men onlye they smote with the edge of the swerde vntill they had destroyed them nether left they ought that had breath. ¹⁵ As the Lorde commaunded Moses hys seruaunt, so dyd Moses commaunde Iosua, and euen so dyd Iosua so that he mynysshed no worde, of all that the Lorde commaunded Moses.

²⁷ Nether dyd Manasses expelle Bethsean with her townes, Thaanach wyth her townes, the enhabitoures of Dor with her townes, the enhabitoures of Ieblaam wyth her townes, nether the enhabitoures of Magedo wyth her townes, but the Cananites were bolde to dwell in the lande.

¹³ And Sisara gathered together all his charettes, euen .ix. hundred charettes of yron, & all the people that were wt him from of Haroseth of the gentyles, vnto the ryuer of kyson.

³⁰ Surely they haue founde, they deuyde the spoyles: euery man hath a damsell or two: Sisera hath a praye of diuerse couloured garmentes, euen a praye of rayment dyed wt sondrye coloures, & that are made of nedle worke: rayment of diuerses coloures & of nedle worke which is mete for him that is chefe in distributinge of the spoyles.

¹² Baana the sonne of Ahilud was ouer Chanach & Magiddo, & ouer all Bethsan, which is by Zarthana beneth Iezrael, from Bethsan to the playne of Mehola, euen vnto the place that is ouer agaynst Iechmeam:

¹² Thou lettest vs be eaten vp lyke shepe, & hast scatred vs among the Heithen.

⁴ For lo, the kynges are gathered, & gone by together. ⁵ They marueled, to se soch thinges: they were astonied, and sodenly cast downe. ⁶ Feare came there vpon them, & sorowe, as vpon a woman in her trauayle.

¹² Kynges with theyr armyes dyd flye, and were discomfited, and they of the houshold deuyded the spoyle. ¹³ Though ye haue lyen amonge the pottes, yet shall ye be as the wynges of a doue that is couered with syluer wynges, and hir fethers lyke golde. ¹⁴ When the Almyghty scatred kynges for their sake, then were they as white as snowe in Zalmon.

⁸ It is better to trust in the Lord, then to put eny confydence in man. ⁹ It is better to trust in the Lorde, then to put eny confydence in prynces. ¹⁰ All nacions compased me rounde about, but in the name of the Lorde will I destroy them. ¹¹ They kept me in on euery syde, they kept me in (I saye) on euery syde, but in the name of the Lorde, I wyll destroye them. ¹² They came aboute me lyke bees, and are extincte, euen as the fyre amonge the thornes, for in the name of the Lorde I wyl destroye them.

¹² And the ten hornes which thou sawest are ten kynges which haue receaued no kingdom as yet, but shall receaue power as kynges at one houre wyth the beast. ¹³ These haue one mynde, and shall geue their power and strength vnto the beast. ¹⁴ These shall fyght with the lambe, & the lambe shall ouercome them. For he is Lorde of lordes, and kynge of kynges, and they that are on his side, are called, and chosen, and faythfull.

¹⁹ And I sawe the beast, and the kynges of the earth, and their warriers gathered together to make batayle agaynst hym that sat on the horsse, and agaynst his soudiers.

¹¹ And it fortuned, that as they fled from Israell, & were in the goyng doune to Bethoron, the Lorde cast downe great stones from heauen vpon them, vntyll Esaka. And there were mo deed with hayle stones, then they were, whom the chyldren of Israell slewe wyth the swerde.

¹⁵ But the Lorde destroyed Sisara and all his charettes, & all his hoste with the edge of the swerde, before Barak: so that Sisara lyghted downe of his charett, & fled awaye on hys fete.

¹⁰ And as Samuel offred the burntoffring, the Philistines came to fyght agenst Israel. But the Lorde thondered a great thonder that same daye amonge the Philistines, and scatered them, that they fell before Israel.

¹⁷ The cloudes poured out water, the ayer thondered, & thyne arowes went abroade. ¹⁸ The voyce of thy thonder was hearde rounde aboute, the lyghtenynges shone vpon the grounde, the earth was moued and shoke wythall

¹⁸ after thy saluacyon haue I loked (o Lorde.)

⁷ And I will bryng vnto the to the ryuer kyson, Sisara, the Captayne of warre vnto Iabin, wt his charettes, & his people, and will delyuer him into thyne handes.

⁴⁰ And Elia sayde vnto them. Take the prophetes of Baal, & let not one of them escape. And they toke them, and Elia brought them vnto the brooke Kison, & slue them there.

⁵ Thou art my kyng (O God) sende helpe vnto Iacob.

⁹ But do thou to them as vnto the Madianites, vnto Sisera, and vnto Iabin at the broke of Kyson. ¹⁰ Whych peryshed at Endor, and became as the donge of the earth.

¹⁰ For in this mountayne shall the hande of the Lorde cease and Moab shalbe thresshed vnder him, euen as strawe is thresshed vpon the grounde.

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.

⁷ Some put theyr trust in charettes, and some in horses: but we wyll remembre the name of the Lorde oure God.

¹⁷ A horse is counted but a vayne thynge to saue a man, neyther shall he delyuer any man by hys greate strength.

¹⁰ He hath not pleasure in the strength of an horse, nether delyteth he in any mans legges. ¹¹ But the Lordes delyte is in them that feare hym, and put their trust in hys mercy.

²⁸ Hys arowes are sharpe, & al his bowes bent. His horse hoofes are lyke flynt, & his cartwheles lyke a stormy wynde.

⁴ at the same tyme when he shall be there, to destroye the whole lande of the Philistines. He shall make waste both Tirus, Sidon, and all other that are sworne vnto them. For the Lorde wyll destroye the Philistines, the remnaunt of the yle of Caphto

¹³ Therfore get the vp, O thou daughter Syon, and throsshe out the corne: For I wyll make thy horne yron, & thy clawes brasse, that thou mayest grynde many people: theyr goodes shalt thou appropriate vnto the Lorde, and theyr substaunce vnto the ruler of the whole worlde.

¹ And the angell of the Lorde came vp from Gilgall to Bochim, & sayde: I made you to come out of Egypte, and haue brought you vnto the lande which I sware vnto youre fathers. And I sayd: I wyll not breake myne appoyntment that I made with you.

¹¹ And the Angell of the Lorde came, & sate vnder an Oke which was in Ephrah, that pertayned vnto Ioas the father of the Eserites. And his sonne Gedeon pressed out whete out of the eares in a presse, to hyde it from the Madianites:

³ And the Aungell of the Lorde apeared vnto the woman: and sayde vnto her: Beholde, thou art barren, and bearest not: But thou shalt conceaue, & beare a sonne.

⁹ And beholde, ther came none of the enhabitoures of Iabes Gilead vnto the hoost and congregacyon. For the people were vewed: and beholde, there were none of the enhabiters of Iabes Gilead there. ¹⁰ And they sent thether a multitude, euen .xij. thousande men of the strongest of them, and commaunded them, sayinge: go and smyte the enhabiters of Iabes Gilead with the edge of the swerde, both wemen and chyldren.

⁴⁷ And all thys congregacyon shall knowe, that the Lord saueth not with swerd and speare. For the battell is the Lordes, and he shall geue you into oure handes.

¹⁷ And Saul sayde to Dauid. Beholde, my eldest daughter Merob, her I wyll geue the to wyfe Only playe the man with me, and fyght the Lordes batelles. For Saul thought: myne hande shall not be vpon hym, but the hand of the Philistines.

²⁸ Forgeue the trespace of thine handmayde, for the Lord will make my Lorde a sure house, because my Lord fyghteth the batayles of the Lorde, and there coulde none euel be founde in the in all thy dayes.

¹⁹ Now therfore let my Lord the kyng heare the wordes of his seruaunt. If the Lorde haue stered the vp agaynst me, let him smell the sauoure of a sacrifice. But & yf they be the children of men, cursed are they before the lord For they haue cast me out this daye from abidyng in the enheritaunce of the Lord, saying: hence, & go serue other gods.

⁵ And nexte vnto him buylded they of Thekoa. But the great men that were amonge them, put not theyr neckes to the worcke of their Lorde.

¹⁰ Cursed be he that doth the worcke of the Lorde negligently, and cursed be he that kepeth backe his swearde from sheddynge of bloude.

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.

¹⁸ For I dare not speake of eny of those thynges, whych Chryst hath not wrought by me, to make the Gentyls obedient, with worde and dede,

⁹ For we are Goddes labourers, ye are Goddes husbandrye, ye are Goddes buyldyng:

²² If eny man loue not the Lord Iesus Christ, the same be Anathema maranatha.

¹ We also as helpers exhorte you that ye receaue not the grace of God in vayne.

¹⁹ & blessed hym sayinge: Blessed be Abram vnto the hyghe God possessor of heauen and erth.

¹⁷ How be it Sisara fled awaye on his fete to the tent of Iael the wyfe of Haber the kenite: for there was peace betwene Iabin the kyng of Hazor, & the housholde of Haber the kenite.

³¹ Geue her of the frute of her handes and let her awne worckes prayse her in the gates.

²⁸ And the angell went in vnto her, and sayde. Hayle full of grace, the Lorde is with the: blessed art thou amonge wemen.

⁴² & cried with a loude voyce, and sayde: Blessed art thou among wemen, and blessed is the frute of thy wombe.

¹⁹ And he sayd vnto her, geue me a lyttel water to drynk, for I am thirstye. And she opened a bottell of mylke, & gaue hym drynck, & couered him. ²⁰ And agayne he sayde vnto her: stande in the dore of the tente, and whan any man doth come and enquere of the, whether there be any man here, thou shalt saye: naye. ²¹ Then Iael Habers wyfe toke a nayle of the tente, & an hammer in her hand, & went softlye vnto hym, and smote the nayle into the temples of his head, and fastened it into the ground, for he slombered sore, and was weery: And so he dyed.

²¹ Then Iael Habers wyfe toke a nayle of the tente, & an hammer in her hand, & went softlye vnto hym, and smote the nayle into the temples of his head, and fastened it into the ground, for he slombered sore, and was weery: And so he dyed.

⁴⁹ And Dauid put his hande in hys bagge, and toke out a stone, and slange it, & smote the Philistine in his forheed, that the stone souncke into his forheed and he felle grouelynge to the erth. ⁵⁰ And so Dauid ouercame the Philistine with a slyng and a stone, and smote the Philistine, and slue hym, euen whan Dauid had no swerde in hys hande. ⁵¹ But Dauid ranne, and stode vpon the Philistine, & toke hys swerde, and drue it out of hys sheth, and slue hym, & cutte of hys heed therwith. And when the Philistines sawe, that theyr champyon was deed they fled.

²² And then the woman went vnto all the people with her wisdome. And they smote of the heed of Seba the sonne of Bichri, and cast it out to Ioab. And he blewe a trompet, and they skatered from the cytie, euery man to his tent. And Ioab returned to Ierusalem, vnto the kynge.

⁷ The ryghteous also shall se this, & feare, & shall laugh him to scorne.

² For as ye iudge, so shall ye be iudged. And with what measure ye meate, with the same shall other men measure to you.

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

² And Ahazia fell thorowe a graate of hys vpper chambre that he had in Samaria: and whyle he was in his sycknesse, he sent messengers, and sayde vnto them: go and enquyre of Beelzebub the God of Ekron, whether I shall recouer of this my disease.

⁶ For out of the wyndowe of my house I loked thorowe the latysse,

⁹ My beloued, is lyke a Roo or a yonge hart. Beholde, he standeth behynde our wall, he loketh in at the wyndowe, and pepeth thorowe the grate.

¹⁴ O get the awaye, my loue, and be as a roo or a yong hert vpon the swete smellynge mountaynes.

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.

³ But Israel loued Ioseph more than all hys chyldren, because he begat him in hys olde age, and he made hym a coote of many coloures.

⁹ The enemye sayd: I wyll folowe on them: I will ouertake them, I will deuyde the spoyle, I wyll satisfye my lust vpon them, I wyll drawe my sweard, myne hande shall destroye them.

¹⁸ And she had a kirtell of diuerse coloures vpon her: for wt soche were the kynges daughters (that were virgines) appareled. Then his seruaunt brought her oute, and locked the dore after her.

⁵ the gladnes of the vngodly hath bene shorte, and that the ioye of ypocrites continued but the twyncklynge of an eye?

¹⁴ The kynges daughter is all gloryous wythin, her clothyng is of wrought golde.

⁶ and shewe mercye vnto thousandes in them that loue me and kepe my commaundementes.

⁵ and thou shalt loue the Lorde thy God with all thyne harte, & with all thy soule, & with all thy might.

¹¹ And the lande had rest fourtye yeres, and Othoniel the sonne of kenes died.

³⁰ so Moab was subdued that daye, vnder the hande of Israel: and the land had rest .lxxx. yeres.

⁴ And as the mornynge lyght when the sonne is vp, a mornynge in whych are no cloudes to lett the bryghtnesse, and as the grasse of the erth is by the vertue of the rayne.

⁴ Their sounde is gone out into all landes: & their wordes into the endes of the worlde. ⁵ In them hath he set a tabernacle for the sunne, which commeth forth as a brydgrome out of hys chambre, and reioyseth as a giaunt to runne his course.

⁶ He shall make thy rightuousnesse as cleare as the light, & thy iust dealing as the noone daye.

⁴ For lo, the kynges are gathered, & gone by together. ⁵ They marueled, to se soch thinges: they were astonied, and sodenly cast downe.

¹⁰ The ryghteous shall reioyse when he seyth the vengeaunce: he shal wash hys fote stepes in the bloude of the vngodly. ¹¹ So that a man shall saye: verely there is a rewarde for the ryghteous: doutles, there is a God that iudgeth in the earth.

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. ³ But let the ryghteous be glad & reioyse before God: let them also be mery and ioyfull.

⁹ But do thou to them as vnto the Madianites, vnto Sisera, and vnto Iabin at the broke of Kyson. ¹⁰ Whych peryshed at Endor, and became as the donge of the earth. ¹¹ Make them & their prynces lyke Oreb and Zeb. Yee, make all their Prynces lyke as Zebea and Salinana. ¹² Whych saye: let vs take to oure selues the houses of God in possessyon. ¹³ O my God, make them lyke vnto a whele, and as the stubble before the wynde. ¹⁴ Lyke as a fyre that burneth vp the wod, and as the flame that consumeth the mountaynes. ¹⁵ Persecute them euen so with thy tempest, and make them afrayed wyth thy storme. ¹⁶ Make their faces ashamed, O Lorde, that they maye seke thy name. ¹⁷ Let them be confounded and vexed euer more and more: let them be put to shame and perish. ¹⁸ And they shall know, that thou (whose name is Iehoua) art only the moost hyest ouer all the earth.

³⁶ I haue sworne once by my holynesse, that I wyll not fayle Dauid.

¹⁴ Because he hath set hys loue vpon me, therfore shall I delyuer him: I shall set him vp, because he hath knowne my name.

⁹ For lo, thyne enemies, O Lord, lo, thyne ennemies shall perishe, and all the workers of wickednes shalbe destroyed.

¹⁰ O ye that loue the Lorde, se that ye hate the thynge whych is euell: the Lorde preserueth the soules of hys saynctes, he shall delyuer them from the hande of the vngodly.

¹⁸ The pathe of the ryghtewes shyneth as the lyght, that is euer brighter and brighter vnto the perfect daye.

³ The wyse (soch as haue taught other) shall glyster, as the shynynge of heauen: and those that haue instructe the multitude vnto godlynesse, shalbe as the starres, worlde without ende.

³ Then shall we haue vnderstandynge, & endeuoure oure selues to knowe the Lorde. He shall go forth as the spryng of the daye, & come vnto vs as the euenynge and mornynge rayne vpon the earth.

⁴³ Then shall the righteous shine as the Sonne in the kyngdom of their father. Whosoeuer hath eares to heare, let him heare.

²⁸ We knowe that all thynhes worke for the best vnto them that loue God, which also are called of purpose.

³ But yf eny man loue God, the same is knowen of him.

²⁴ Grace be with all them which loue oure Lorde Iesus Chryst syncerely. Amen.

¹² Happy is the man that endureth temptacyon: for when he is tryed, he shall receaue the crowne of lyfe, which the Lorde hath promysed to them that loue hym.

⁵ Harken my deare beloued brethren. Hath not God chosen the poore of thys worlde, soch as are ryche in faythe, & heyres of the kyngdome, whych he promysed to them that loue hym?

⁸ whom ye haue not sene, & yet loue hym, in whome euen now, though ye se hym not, yet do you beleue, and reioyce with ioye vnspeakable and glorious

¹⁹ We loue him, for he loued vs fyrst. ²⁰ If a man say, I loue God, and yet hate his brother, he is a liar. For how can he that loued not hys brother whom he hath sene, loue God whom he hath not sene? ²¹ And this commaundement haue we of hym: that he which loueth God, shuld loue his brother also.

² By this we knowe, that we loue the chyldren of God, when we loue God, and kepe his commaundementes. ³ For this is the loue of God, that We kepe his commaundementes, and his commaundementes are not greuous.

¹⁰ & they cryed with a lowde voyce, sayinge: How longe taryest thou Lord, holy & true, to iudge & to auenge oure bloud on them that dwel on the erth?
