²⁶ Beholde, I set before you thys daye, a blessynge & a curs ²⁷ a blessynge: yf ye obeye the commaundmentes of the Lorde youre God whych I commaunde you thys daye. ²⁸ And a curse: yf ye wyll not obeye the commaundmentes of the Lorde youre God: but turne out of the waye, whych I commaunde you thys daye, to go after straunge goddes, whych ye haue not knowen. ²⁹ When the Lorde thy God therfore hath brought the in to the lande, whether thou goest to possesse it, thou shalt put the blessynge vpon mount Garizim, & the curse vpon mount Ebal, ³⁰ whych (mountaynes) are on the other syde Iordan on the backe syde of the waye towarde the goynge doune of the sonne, in the lande of the Cananites whych dwel in the playne ouer agaynst Gilgal besyde the groue of Moreh. ³¹ For ye shall passe ouer Iordane, to go in, and possesse the lande, which the Lorde your God geueth you, and ye shall conquere it, & dwell therin.

³³ Ether make the tree good, and his frute good, or els make the tree euyll, and hys frute euyll. For the tree is knowen by his frute. ³⁴ O generacion of vypers, how can ye speake good thinges, when ye youre selues are euyll? For out of the aboundance of the hert, the mouth speaketh. ³⁵ A good man out of the good treasure of the hert, bryngeth forth good thynges. And an euyll man, out of euyll treasure, bringeth forth euyll thynges.

³³ Herken another symilitude Ther was a certaine man an housholder, whych planted a vineyarde, & hedged it rounde about, & made a wynepresse in it, & bilt a tower, and let it out to husbandmen, & went into a straung countre.

⁴⁴ And whosoeuer falleth on this stone, shalbe broken in peces: but on whomsoeuer it falleth it shall all to grynd hym.

²⁰ And in the morninge as they passed by, they sawe the fygge tree dryed vp by the rotes. ²¹ And Peter remembred, and sayde vnto him: master, beholde, the fygg tree whych thou cursedst, is wyddred awaye.

⁶ If a man byde not in me, he is cast forth as a braunche, & is wythered: and men gather them: and cast them into the fyre, and they burne.

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.

¹¹ He that doeth euyll, let him do euyll styll: and he which is filthy, let him be fylthy styll: and he that is ryghteous, let hym be more ryghteous: & he that is holy, let hym be more holy.

²⁵ then shalt thou make it in money, & take the money in thyne hande, & go vnto the place whych the Lorde thy God hath chosen, ²⁶ and bestowe the money for whatsoeuer thy soule lusteth after: for oxen, & shepe, wyne & stronge drynke, & for whatsoeuer thy soule desyreth, and eate there before the Lorde thy God and be mery. bothe thou and thyne housholde,

¹² And Iesus went into the temple of God, & cast out all them that solde & bought in the temple, & ouerthrew the tables of the mony chaungers, & the seates of them that solde doues, ¹³ & sayd vnto them: It is wrytten my house shalbe called the house of prayer. But ye haue made it a denne of theues. ¹⁴ And the blynde & the halt came to him in the temple, & he healed them. ¹⁵ When the chefe Prestes & Scribes sawe the wonders that he dyd, & the chyldren cryinge in the temple (& sayinge: Hosanna to the sonne of Dauid) they disdayned, ¹⁶ and sayd vnto him: hearest thou what these saye? But Iesus saieth vnto them why not? haue ye neuer redde. Out of the mouth of babes & suckelynges thou haste ordeyned prayse?

⁴⁵ And he went into the temple, and beganne to cast out them that solde therin, and them that bought, ⁴⁶ sayinge vnto them: It is written: my house is the house of prayer: but ye haue made it a den of theues: ⁴⁷ And he taught dayly in the temple. But the hye Prestes & the scrybes and the chefe of the people went aboute to destroye hym:

¹³ And the Iewes ester was euen at hande, and Iesus went vp to Ierusalem, ¹⁴ & founde syttynge in the temple, those that solde oxen and shepe and doues, & chaungers of money. ¹⁵ And when he had made (as it were) a scourge of smal coardes, he droue them all out of the temple, with the shepe & oxen, and powred out the chaungers money, and ouerthrue the tables, ¹⁶ & sayde vnto them that solde doues: Haue these thinges hence, & make not my fathers house an house of marchaundyse. ¹⁷ And his disciples remembred it that is wrytten: the zele of thyne house hath euen eaten me.

⁴¹ And lykewyse, yf a straunger that is not of thy people Israel come out of a farre contrey for thy names sake, ⁴² for they shall heare of thy greate name, & of thy myghtie hande and of thy stretched out arme & shall come and praye in thys house. ⁴³ Therfore, heare thou in heauen thy dwellynge place, and do all that the straunger calleth to the for: that all nacions of the erth maye knowe thy name and feare the, as do thy people Israel: and that they maye knowe that thy name is called vpon in thys house whych I haue buylte. ⁴⁴ Yf thy people go out to batell agaynst their enemye, whether soeuer thou shalt sende them and shal praye vnto the, (O Lord) to warde the waye of the cytie whyche thou hast chosen, and towarde the house that I haue buylte for thy name: ⁴⁵ heare thou in heauen theyr prayer and supplicacion, and iudge their cause. ⁴⁶ Yf they synne aganst the (for there is no man that synneth not) and thou be angrie with them, and delyuer them into the hande of theyr enemyes: so that they carye them awaye prysoners vnto the lande of theyr enemyes, whether farre or neare, ⁴⁷ yet yf they turne agayne vnto theyr hertes in the lande (to the whych they be caryed awaye captyue,) and returne and praye vnto the in the lande of theyr enemyes, saying: we haue synned, we haue done wyckedlye, and haue committed vngodlynesse, ⁴⁸ and so turne agayne vnto the with all theyr herte, and all theyr soule in the lande of their enemies, which led them awaye captyue, and praye vnto the toward the waye of theyr lande, whych thou gauest vnto theyr fathers, and towarde the cytie, which thou hast chosen, & towarde the house which I haue buylt for thy name:

⁷ Them wyll I brynge to my holy mountayne, and make them ioyfull in my house of prayer. Theyr burnt offrynges and sacrifyces shalbe accepted vpon myne aulter. For my house shalbe called an house of prayer for all people.

⁷ All the catell of Cedar shalbe gathered vnto the, the rammes of Nabaioth shall serue the, to be offred acceptablye vpon myne aulter, which I haue chosen, & in the house of my glory which I haue garnyshed.

¹¹ What? thyncke you this house that beareth my name, is a denne of theues? And yea I se what you thynke, sayeth the Lorde.

⁷ But thou art lyke the marchaunt that hath a false weyght in his hande, he hath a pleasure to occupie extorcyon.

⁴⁶ sayinge vnto them: It is written: my house is the house of prayer: but ye haue made it a den of theues:

¹⁶ & sayde vnto them that solde doues: Haue these thinges hence, & make not my fathers house an house of marchaundyse.

¹⁷ And it fortuned that whan Ahab sawe Elia, he sayde vnto him: art thou he that troubleth Israel? ¹⁸ He answered: it is not I that haue troubled Israel, but thou, and thy fathers house, in that ye haue forsaken the commaundementes of the Lorde, and thou hast folowed Baal.

²⁰ And Ahab sayde to Elia: hast thou founde me, o thou myne enemye? He answered: I haue founde the: for thou art euen solde to worcke wickednesse in the syght of the Lorde.

⁸ And the kyng of Israel sayd vnto Iehosaphat: there is yet one man (Michea the sonne of Iimla,) by whom we maye aske councell of the Lorde. But I hate hym: for he doth not prophesye good vnto me, but euel. And Iehosaphat sayde: let not the kyng saye so.

¹⁸ And the kynge of Israel sayde vnto Iehosaphat: dyd I not tell the, that he wolde prophesye no good vnto me, but euell?

⁷ Moreouer, thus sayth the Lorde the auenger and holy one of Israel: because of the abhorringe and despysinge amonge the Gentiles, concerning the seruaunt of all them that beare rule. Kynges and princes shall se, and aryse and worshyp, because of the Lord that is faythfull: & because of the holy one of Israel, which hath chosen the.

²⁸ And it came to passe, that when Iesus had ended these sayinges, the people were astonnyed at hys doctryne.

¹⁵ When the chefe Prestes & Scribes sawe the wonders that he dyd, & the chyldren cryinge in the temple (& sayinge: Hosanna to the sonne of Dauid) they disdayned,

³⁸ But when the husbandmen sawe the sonne, they sayd amonge them selues: This is the heyre: come, let vs kyll him, & let vs enioye his inheritaunce ³⁹ And they caught hym, & thrust hym out of the vineyarde, & slewe him.

⁴⁵ And when the chefe Prestes and Pharises had hearde hys parables, they perceaued, that he speake of them. ⁴⁶ And they went about to laye handes on him but they feared the people, because they tooke him as a Prophet

³ Then assembled together the chefe prestes & the scrybes & the elders of the people vnto the palace of the hye preste, (whych was called Cayphas) ⁴ and helde a counsell, that they myght take Iesus by suttelte, and kyll him.

²² And they were astonnyed at hys learnynge. For he taught them as one that had auctorite, & not as the Scribes.

⁶ And the Pharises departed, and streight waye gathred a councell (with them that belonged to Herode) agaynst hym, that they myght destroye him.

²⁰ For Herod feared Iohn, knowing that he was a iust man & an holy: & gaue hym reuerence: and when he hearde hym, he dyd many thynges, and hearde hym gladly.

³² but yf they had sayd, of men, they feared the people. For all men counted Iohn, that he was a verye Prophete.

¹² They went about also to take him, & feared the people. For they knewe, that he had spoken the parable agaynst them. And they left hym and went theyr waye:

¹ After two dayes was Easter, and the dayes of swete breed And the hye Prestes and the Scribes sought, how they myghte take hym by crafte, & put him to deeth. ² But they sayde: not in the feast daye, leest any busynes aryse amonge the people.

²² And all bare hym wytnes and wondred at the gracious wordes, which proceaded out of of hys mouth, and they sayde: Is not thys Iosephs sonne?

⁴⁷ And he taught dayly in the temple. But the hye Prestes & the scrybes and the chefe of the people went aboute to destroye hym:

¹⁹ And the hye prestes and the Scrybes the same houre went about to laye handes on hym, and they feared the people. For they perceaued that he had spoken thys symilitude agaynst them.

⁴⁶ The mynisters answered: neuer man spake as this man doeth,

⁵³ Then from that daye forth they toke councel together, for to put him to death. ⁵⁴ Iesus therfore walked nomore openly among the Iewes: but went his waye thence vnto a countre nye to a wildernes, into a cytie which is called Ephraim, and there contynued wt his disciples. ⁵⁵ And the Iewes Easter was nye at hand, & many went out of the countre vp to Ierusalem before the Easter, to purify them selues. ⁵⁶ Then sought they for Iesus, & spake among them selues, as they stode in the temple: What thinke ye, seyng he commeth not to the feaste daye? ⁵⁷ The hye prestes and pharises had geuen a commaundement, that yf eny man knewe wher he were, he shuld shewe it, that they myght take him.

²⁵ And as he preached of ryghtewesnes temperaunce, and iudgement to come, Felix trembled, and answered: Go thy waye for thys tyme: whan I haue a conuenient season, I wyll sende for the.

⁵ And yf eny man wyll hurt them, fyre shall procede out of their mouthes, and consume their enemyes. And yf eny men wyll hurt them, thys wyse muste he be kylled. ⁶ These haue power to shut heauen, that it rayne not in the dayes of their prophesying: and haue power ouer waters to turne them to bloude, and to smyte the erth with all maner plages, as often as they wyll. ⁷ And when they haue finysshed their testimony, the beast that cam out of the bottomlesse pyt, shall make warre agaynst them, & shall ouercome them, & kyll them. ⁸ And their bodyes shall lye in the stretes of the greate citye, which spritually is called Zodom and Egypte, where oure Lorde was crucyfyed. ⁹ And they of the people & kynredes, & tonges, & they of the nacyons, shall se their bodyes .iii. dayes and an halfe, & shall not suffre their bodyes to be put in graues. ¹⁰ And they that dwell vpon the erth, shall reioyce ouer them, and be glad, & shall sende gyftes one to another, for these two prophetes vexed them that dwelt on the erth. ¹¹ And the Lorde entred into Ierusalem and into the temple. And when he had loked round about vpon all thynges, and now the euen tyde was come, he went out vnto Bethany wyth the twelue.

³⁷ In the daye tyme, he taught in the temple: and at nyght, he went out, and abode in the mount that is called Olyuete.

³⁶ Whyle ye haue lyght, beleue on the lyght, that ye maye be the children of the lyght. These thynges spake Iesus, and departed, and hid him self from them.

¹⁶ His rotes shalbe dried vp beneth, and aboue shall his braunch be cutt downe. ¹⁷ His remembraunce shall perysshe from the earth, and he shall haue no name in the strete:

⁵ the gladnes of the vngodly hath bene shorte, and that the ioye of ypocrites continued but the twyncklynge of an eye? ⁶ Though he be magnified vp to the heauen, so that his head reacheth vnto the cloudes: ⁷ yet at a turne he perisheth for euer. Insomoch that they which haue sene hym, shall saye. Where is he?

⁴ What more could haue bene done for it that I haue not done? Wherfore then hath it geuen thornes, where I loked to haue had grapes of it?

²⁴ so that of them it may be sayde they be not planted nor sowen agayne, nether their stock roted agayne in the earth? For as soone as he bloweth vpon them, they wither & fade awaye, like the straw in a whyrle winde.

⁶ and when the sonne was vp, they caught heat, & because they had no rote, they wyddred awaye.

¹³ But he answered and sayd. Euery plante which my heauenly father hath not planted, shalbe plucked vp by the rotes.

¹⁴ And Iesus answered, and sayde vnto the fygg tre: neuer man eate frute of the here after whyll the worlde standeth. And hys discyples hearde it.

⁸ But that grounde which beareth thornes and bryars, is reproued, and is nye vnto cursynge: whose ende is to be burned.

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.

³³ The curse of the Lorde is in the house of the vngodly: but he blesseth the dwellynges of the ryghteous.

³ Then sayed he vnto me: Thys is the curse that goeth forth ouer the whole earth: for all theues shalbe Iudged after this booke & all swearers shalbe iudged accordynge to the same, ⁴ & I wyl brynge it furth (sayeth the Lorde of hostes) so that it shall come to the house of the thefe, & to the house of him, that falsly sweareth by my name: & shall remayne in hys house, & consume it, wt the tymbre and stones therof.

⁷ & gretynges in the markett, and to be called of men, Rabbi.

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.

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

²⁰ And whan they arose earlye in the mornynge, they gat them out vnto the wyldernesse of Thekoa. And as they went out, Iehosaphat stode and sayde: heare me, O Iuda, & ye enhabiters of Ierusalem. Put your trust in the Lord your God, that ye maye be founde faythfull. Geue credence to hys prophetes, & so shall ye prospere.

⁸ O put your trust in him allwaye (ye people) powre out youre hertes before him, for God is our hope. Sel

⁹ And the chefe cytie of Ephraim is Samaria, but the head of Samaria is Romelies sonne. Yf ye beleue not: it commeth of thys: that ye are vnfaithfull to God.

²³ Iesus sayd vnto hym: yf thou couldest beleue all thynges are possyble to hym that beleueth.

¹ And he sayde vnto his disciples: lett not your herte be troubled. Ye beleue in God, beleue also in me.

¹² in that ye are buried with hym thorowe bapti me, in whom ye are also rysen agayne thorowe fayth, that is wrought by the operacyon of God which raysed him from deeth.

¹ Paul the seruaunt of God, and apostle of Iesu Christ accordinge to the fayth of goddes electe, and accordynge to the knowledge of the trueth, which is after godlynes

⁴ Delyte thou in the Lorde, & he shall geue the thy hertes desyre.

¹³ When Iesus hearde of it, he departed thence in a shyppe vnto a desert place, out of the waye. And when the people had harde therof, they folowed him on fote and left the cyties.

²⁰ Iesus sayd vnto them: Because of youre vnbelefe. For verely I saye vnto you: yf ye haue fayth as a grayne of musterd seed, ye shall saye vnto this mountayne: remoue hence to yonder place, and it shall remoue: nether shal eny thinge be vnpossible vnto you.

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.

⁶ And the Lorde sayde: yf ye had fayth lyke a grayne of mustarde sede, & shuld saye vnto this Sycamyne tree, plucke thy selfe vp by the rootes, and plant thy selfe in the see: it shulde obey you.

¹³ And whatsoeuer ye aske in my name, that will I do, that the father maye be glorifyed by the sonne.

⁷ If ye byde in me, and my wordes abyde in you: aske what ye wyll, and it shalbe done for you.

¹⁸ Whych Abraham, contrary to hope, beleued in hope, that he shulde be the father of many nacyons, accordynge to that whych was spoken: ¹⁹ euen so shall thy seed be. And he faynted not in the fayth, nor yet consydered his awne body whych was now deed, euen when he was almost an hondred yeare olde: nether yet that Sara was past chyldeberinge. ²⁰ He stackered not at the promes of God thorow vnbelefe: but became stronge in fayth, and gaue God the prayse, ²¹ beynge full certifyed, that he whych had promised the same was able also to make it good. ²² And therfore was it reckened to hym for ryghtewesnes. ²³ Neuertheles it is not wrytten for hym onely, that it was reckened to hy ²⁴ but also for vs, to whom it shalbe counted so that we beleue on hym, that raysed vp Iesus oure Lorde from the deed: ²⁵ whych was delyuered for oure synnes, and was raysed agayne for oure iustificacyon.

² And though I coulde prophesy, and vnderstode all secretes, and all knowledge: yee yf I haue all fayth, so that I can moue mountayns oute of their places, and yet haue no loue, I am nothynge.

¹⁷ By fayth Abraham offered vp Isaac, when he was proued, and he offered him beyng his only begotten sonne, in whom he had receaued the promyses. ¹⁸ And to hym it was sayde, in Isaac shal thy seed be called: ¹⁹ for he consydered, that God was able to rayse vp agayne from deeth. Therfore, receaued he him also for an ensample of the resurreccion.

⁵ If eny of you lacke wysdome, let hym aske of him that geueth it: euen God, which geueth to all men indifferentlye, and casteth no man in the teeth: and it shalbe geuen him. 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.

⁷ Aske, and it shalbe geuen you: Seke, & ye shall fynde: Knocke, and it shalbe opened vnto you. ⁸ For whosoeuer asketh, receaueth: and whosoeuer seketh, fyndeth: and to hym that knocketh, it shalbe opened. ⁹ Is there eny man amonge you, which (yf hys sonne aske bread) wyll offer him a stone? ¹⁰ Or yf he aske fisshe, will he profer him a serpent? ¹¹ If ye then (whan ye are euell) can geue youre children good gyftes, how moch more shall your father which is in heauen, geue good thynges, yf ye aske of hym?

¹⁹ Agayne I saye vnto you that yf two of you agree in erthe vpon eny maner a thynge, whatsoeuer they desyre: they shall haue it of my father which is in heauen.

²² And all thinges whatsoeuer ye aske in prayer (yf ye beleue) ye shall receaue them.

⁹ And I saye vnto you: aske, and it shalbe geuen you. Seke, and ye shall fynde: Knocke, and it shalbe opened vnto you. ¹⁰ For euery one that asketh, receaueth: and he that seketh, fyndeth: & to him that knocketh, shall it be opened. ¹¹ Yf the sonne shall aske breed of eny of you that is a father, wyll he geue him a stone? Or yf he aske fishe, wyll he for fysshe geue him a serpent? ¹² Or yf he aske an egge, will he offer him a scorpion? ¹³ Yf ye then beyng euyll, can geue good giftes vnto youre children, how moch moare shall your father of heauen geue the holy sprete to them, that desyre it of him?

¹ And he put forth a parable vnto them, signifying that men ought all wayes to praye and not to be wery, ² sayinge: Ther was in a certayne cytie a iudge, which feared not God, nether regarded man. ³ And ther was a certayne wedowe in the same cytye, and she came vnto hym, sayinge: auenge me of myne aduersary. ⁴ And he wolde not for a whyle. But after warde he sayd within him selfe: though I feare not God, nor care for man, ⁵ yet because thys wedowe is importune vpon me, I wyll auenge her, lest she come at the last and rayle on me. ⁶ And the Lorde sayde, heare what the vnryghtewes Iudge sayeth. ⁷ And shal not God auenge his electe, which crye daye and nyght vnto him, yee, though he deferre them? 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?

²³ And in the daye shall ye aske me no question. Uerely verely, I saye vnto you: whatsoeuer ye shall aske the father in my name, he wyll geue it you. ²⁴ Hytherto haue ye asked nothynge in my name. Aske, and ye shall receaue: that youre ioye maye be full. ²⁵ These thinges haue I spoken vnto you by prouerbes. The tyme will come, when I shal nomore speake vnto you by prouerbes: but I shall shewe you playnely from my father. ²⁶ At that daye shall ye aske in my name. And I saye not vnto you that I will speake vnto my father for you. ²⁷ For the father him selfe loueth you, because ye haue loued me, and haue beleued, that I came out from God.

¹⁵ and the prayer of fayth shall saue the sycke, and the Lord shal rayse him vp: and yf he haue commytted synnes, they shalbe forgeuen hym. ¹⁶ Knowledge youre fautes one to another: and praye one for another, that ye maye be healed. For the feruent prayer of a ryghteous man auayleth moch. ¹⁷ Helyas was a man vnder infirmitees euen as we are, and he prayed in his prayer that it myght not rayne: and it rayned not on the earthe by the space of thre yeares & syxe monethes. ¹⁸ And he prayed agayne, and the heauen gaue rayne, and the earth brought forth her frute.

²² & what soeuer we aske we receaue of hym, because we kepe his commaundementes, & do those thinges which are pleasinge in his syght.

¹⁴ And thys is the trust that we haue in hym: that yf we aske eny thynge accordynge to hys wyll, he heareth vs. ¹⁵ And yf we knowe that he heare vs whatsoeuer we aske, we knowe, that we haue the peticyons, that we desyre of hym.

¹ And he shewed me Iesua the hye prest standyng before the angel of the lord and Satan stode at his ryght hand to resyst hym.

²³ Therfore, yf thou offrest thy gyfte at the aulter, and there remembrest that thy brother hath ought agaynst the:

⁵ And when thou prayest thou shalt not be as the ypocrytes are. For they vse to stand praieng in the synagoges, and in the corners of the stretes, that they maye be sene of men. Uerely, I saye vnto you: they haue theyr rewarde.

¹² And forgeue vs our dettes, as we forgeue oure detters.

¹⁴ Therfore, yf ye forgeue other men theyr trespasses, your heuenly father shall forgeue you. ¹⁵ But yf ye wyll not forgeue men theyr trespasses, nomore shall your father forgeue you youre trespasses.

²³ Therfore is the kyngdom of heauen lykened vnto a certaine man that was a king, which wolde take acountes of hys seruauntes. ²⁴ And when he had begone to recken, one was brought vnto him, whych ought him ten thousand talentes, ²⁵ but forasmoch as he was not able to paye, his Lord commaunded him to be solde, & hys wyfe & chyldren, & all that he had, and payment to be made. ²⁶ The seruaunt fell doune, & & be sought him, saying: Syr, haue pacience wt me, and I wyll paye the all. ²⁷ Then had the Lorde pytie on that seruaunt, & lowsed hym and forgaue hym the det. ²⁸ So the same seruaunt, went out, & founde out of hys felowes which ought him an hundred pence: & he layed handes on hym, & toke him by the throte, saying: paye that thou owest. ²⁹ And his felowe fell downe, & besought hym saying: haue pacyence wt me, & I wyll paye the all. ³⁰ And he wolde not, but went, & cast hym into preson, tyll he shulde paye the det. ³¹ So, when his felowes sawe what was done, they were very sory, and came, & tolde vnto their Lord all that had happened. ³² Then his Lord called hym & sayd vnto hym: O thou vngracyous seruaunt, I forgaue the all that det, whan thou desyredst me: ³³ shuldest not thou also haue had compassion on thy felow, euen as I had pytie on the? ³⁴ And hys Lorde was wrooth, & delyuered him to the iaylers, tyll he shuld paye all that was due vnto hym. ³⁵ So lyke wyse shall my heauenly father do also vnto you yf ye from youre hertes, forgeue not (euery one his brother) theyr trespases.

³⁷ Iudge not, and ye shall not be iudged: Condempne not, and ye shall not be condempned. Forgeue, and ye shalbe forgeuen.

¹¹ The Pharyse stode and prayed thus with hym selfe: God, I thancke the, that I am not as other men are, extorsioners, vniuste, aduoutrers, or as this publycan.

³² Be ye courteouse one to another, mercyfull, forgeuynge one another, euen as God for Christes sake hath forgeuen you.

¹³ for bearynge one another, & forgeuynge one another, yf any man haue a quarell agaynst another: as Christ forgaue you, euen so do ye.

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

⁴ These are two olyue trees, & two candelstyckes, standynge before the God of the erth.

¹ Why do the Heythen so furiouslye rage together? and why do the people ymagyne a vayne thynge? ² The kynges of the erth stande vp, and the rulers take councell together agaynst the Lorde, and agaynst hys anoynted. ³ Let vs breake theyr bondes asunder, and cast awaye theyr coardes from vs. ⁴ He that dwelleth in heauen shall laugh them to scorne: the Lorde shall haue them in derisyon. ⁵ Then shall he speake vnto them in hys wrath, and vexe them in hys sore displeasure.

²³ And when he was come in to the temple, the chefe Prestes & the elders of the people came vnto him (as he was teachinge) & sayde By what auctorite doest thou these thinges? & who gaue the thys power? ²⁴ Iesus answered & sayde vnto them: I also wyll aske of you a certayne thing, which yf ye tell me, I in lyke wyse will tell you by what auctorite I do these thinges. ²⁵ The baptime of Iohn: whence was it? from heauen or of men? And they thought amonge them selues, saying: yf we saye from heauen, he wyll saye vnto vs: why dyd ye not then beleue him? ²⁶ But yf we shall saye of men, then feare we the people. For all men holde Iohn as a prophet. ²⁷ And they answered vnto Iesus & sayde: we cannot tell. And he sayd vnto them: nether tell I you, by what auctorite I do these thynges.

¹ After two dayes was Easter, and the dayes of swete breed And the hye Prestes and the Scribes sought, how they myghte take hym by crafte, & put him to deeth.

¹ And it fortuned in one of those dayes (as he taught the people in the temple and preached the gospell) the hye Prestes and the Sribes came together wyth the elders, ² & spake vnto him sayinge: Tell vs: by what auctorite doest thou these thynges? Ether who is he, that gaue the thys auctorite? ³ Iesus answered & sayd vnto them: I also will aske you one thyng, & answer me. ⁴ The baptyme of Iohn: was it from heauen or of men? ⁵ And they thought wyth in them selues sayinge: yf we saye from heauen, he will saye: why then beleued ye hym not? ⁶ But & yf we saye: of men, all the people wyll stone vs. For they be perswaded, that Iohn is a Prophete. ⁷ And they answered, that they coulde not tell whence it was. ⁸ And Iesus sayd vnto them: nether tell I you, by what auctoryte I do these thynges.

²³ and Iesus walked in the temple, euen in Salomons porche.

²⁰ Iesus answered hym: I spake openly in the worlde. I euer taught in the Synagoge, and in the temple, whyther all the Iewes resorte, and in secret haue I sayde nothyng.

⁵ And it chaunsed on the morow, that their rulars and elders and Scribes, ⁶ (and Annas the chefe Prest, and Cayphas, and Iohn, and Alexander, & as many as were of the kynred of the hye Prestes) gathered together at Ierusalem. ⁷ And whan they had set them before them they asked by what power, or in what name haue ye done this? ⁸ Then Peter full of the holy goost sayde vnto them ye rulars of the people, and elders of Israel,

²⁷ For of a trueth, agaynst thy holy chylde Iesus (whom thou hast anoynted) both Herode and also Poncius Pylate, which the Gentyls and the people of Israel, gathered them selues together ²⁸ for to do whatsoeuer thy hande and thy counsell determyned before to be done.

¹⁴ He answered: who made the a man of auctoryte to iudge vs? Speakest thou to kyll me, as thou kylledst the Egyptian? And Moses feared & sayde: of a suertie thys thynge is knowne:

³ & they gathred them selues together agaynst Moses and Aaron, & sayde vnto them: ye make moche to do, seynge all the multitude are holy euery one of them, and the Lorde is amonge them: Why heaue ye your selues vp aboue the congregacyon of the Lorde?

¹³ Is it a small thynge, that thou hast brought vs oute of a lande that floweth with mylke and hony, to kyll vs in the wildernes, and to raygne ouer vs also?

²⁷ But he that dyd hys neyghboure wronge, thrust hym awaye, sayinge: who made the a ruler and a iudge ouer vs? ²⁸ wilt thou kyll me, as thou dydest the Egypcian yesterdaye?

³⁸ This is he that was in the congregacion, in the wildernes with the angel (which spake to hym in the mount Sina) and with our fathers. This man receaued the word of life to geue vnto vs, ³⁹ to whom our fathers wold not obey, but cast it from them, and in theyr hertes turned backe agayne into Egypt,

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

¹³ Beholde, my seruaunt shall deale wysely, therfore shall he be magnified, exalted & greatly honoured.

²⁴ Iesus answered & sayde vnto them: I also wyll aske of you a certayne thing, which yf ye tell me, I in lyke wyse will tell you by what auctorite I do these thinges.

¹ In those dayes came Iohn the Baptist, preachyng in the wyldernesse of Iewry, ² and sayeng: Repent of the life that is past, for the kingdome of heauen is at hand. ³ For this is he, of whom the Prophete Esaye spake, which sayeth: The voyce of a cryer in the wyldernes, prepare ye the waye of the Lorde: & make hys pathes streyght. ⁴ Thys Iohn had hys rayment of camels heer. And a gyrdell of a skynne about hys loynes. His meat was locustes and wylde hony. ⁵ Then went out to hym Ierusalem and all Iewrye, and all the regyon rounde about Iordan, ⁶ and were baptysed of hym in Iordan, confessyng their synnes. ⁷ But when he sawe many of the Pharises and Saduces come to hys baptyme, he sayd vnto them: O generacion of vypers, who hath taught you to fle from the vengeaunce to come? ⁸ Bring forth therfore the frutes that belong to repentaunce. ⁹ And be not of soch mynde that ye wolde saye wtin your selues: we haue Abraham to oure father. For I saye vnto you: that God is able to bryng to passe, that of these stones ther shall ryse vp children vnto Abraham. 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. 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: 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. ¹³ Then commeth Iesus from Galile to Iordan vnto Iohn to be baptysed of hym. ¹⁴ But Iohn forbade hym, sayinge: I haue nede to be baptised of the: and commest thou to me? ¹⁵ Iesus answered & said vnto him: Let it be so now. For thus it becometh vs to fulfyll all ryghteousnesse. Then he suffred hym. ¹⁶ And Iesus when he was baptised, came straight waye out of the water. And lo heuen was open vnto him: and he sawe the sprete of God descendynge lyke a doue, and lyghtyng vpon hym. ¹⁷ And loo, there came a voyce from heauen saienge. Thys is my beloued sonne, in whom I am well pleased.

¹ The begynnynge of the Gospell of Iesu Chryst the sonne of God, ² as it is written in the Prophetes, behold, I sende my messenger before thy face which shall prepare thy waye before the. ³ The voyce of a cryer in the wildernes: prepare ye the waye of the Lorde, & make his pathes strayte. ⁴ Iohn dyd baptyse in the wyldernes, and preached the baptyme of repentaunce, for the remissyon of synnes. ⁵ And all the lande of Iewrie and they of Ierusalem, went out vnto hym, and were all baptised of him in the ryuer Iordan, confessynge their synnes. ⁶ Iohn was clothed with camilles herr, and wt a gerdyll of a sayng about hys loynes. And he dyd eate locustes and wilde hony, ⁷ and preached sayinge. He that is stronger then I, commeth after me, whose sho latchet I am not worthy to stoupe downe, and vnlose, ⁸ I haue baptysed you wyth water: but he shall baptyse you with the holy gost. ⁹ And it came to passe in those dayes, that Iesus cam from Nazareth, of Galile: and was baptysed of Iohn in Iordan: ¹⁰ And assone as he was come vp out of the water: he sawe heauen open, & the sprete descendynge vpon him lyke adoue: ¹¹ And ther came a voyce from heauen. Thou art my deare sonne in whom I delyte.

¹³ But I saye vnto you, thut Helias is come, and they haue done vnto hym whatsoeuer they wolde, as it was wryten of hym.

¹ In the fyfteneth yere of the raygne of Tyberius the Emperoure, Pontius Pylate beynge leftenaunt of Iewrie, and Herode beinge Tetrach of Galile, and his brother Philip Tetrach of Iturea & of the region of the Traconites, & Lysaniath the Tetrach of Abyline ² (when Anna and Cayphas were the hye prestes) the worde of the Lorde came vnto Iohn the sonne of Zacharias in the wyldernes. ³ And he came in to all the coastes aboute Iordan, preaching the baptyme of repentaunce for the remission of synnes, ⁴ as it is wrytten in the boke of the wordes of Esayas the prophet, sayenge: The voyce of a cryar in wyldernes: prepare ye the waye of the Lord, make his pathes strayght. ⁵ Euery valley shalbe fylled, & euery mountayne & hyll shalbe brought lowe. And thinges that be croked, shalbe made streyght: & the rough wayes shalbe made playne: ⁶ & all flesshe shall se the Saluacion of God. ⁷ Then sayde he to the people, that were come forth to be baptysed of him. O ye generacion of vypers, who hath taught you to flye from the wrath to come? ⁸ Brynge forth therfore due frutes of repentaunce, & begyn not to saye wyth in youre selues: we haue Abraham to oure father. For I saye vnto you. God is able of these stones to reyse vp chyldren vnto Abraham. ⁹ Now also is the axe leyde vnto the rote of the trees: euery tree therfore which bryngeth not forth good frute, is hewen doune, & cast into the fyre. ¹⁰ And the people asked him, sayinge: what shall we do then? ¹¹ He answereth and sayeth, vnto them: He that hath two coates? lett him parte wyth hym that hath none, & he that hath meate, let him do lyke wyse. ¹² Then cam the publicans also to be baptised, & sayde vnto him: Master, what shal we do? ¹³ And he sayde vnto them: requyre no more, then that which is appoynted vnto you. ¹⁴ The soudyoures lykewyse demaunded of him, sayinge: and what shall we do? And he sayde vnto them: hurt no man: nether trouble eny man wrongfully: and be content with youre wages. ¹⁵ As the people were in a doute, and all men musyd in their hertes of Iohn, whether he were very Christ, ¹⁶ Iohn answered & sayde vn them all: I baptise you wyth water, but one stronger then I shall come after me, whose shoo latchet I am not worthy to vnlowse: he shall baptyse you with the holy goost, & wt fyre: ¹⁷ which hath hys fanne in hys hande, & wyll pourge his floore, and gather the corne into his barne: but the chaffe wyll he burne with fyre that neuer shalbe quenched. ¹⁸ And many other thinges in his exhortacion preached he vnto the people. ¹⁹ Then Herode the Tetrach when he was rebuked of hym for Herodias his brother Philippes wyfe, & for all the euyls which Herode dyd: ²⁰ added this aboue all, and layed Iohn in preson.

⁶ There was sent from God a man, whose name was Iohn. ⁷ The same cam as a wytnes to beare wytnes of the lyght, that all men through hym myght beleue. ⁸ He was not the lyght: but was sent to beare wytnes of the lyght.

¹⁵ Iohn beareth wytnes of hym, and cryeth sayinge: Thys was he of whom I spake: which though he came after me, went before me, for he was before me. ¹⁶ And of hys fulnes haue all we receaued, euen grace for grace. ¹⁷ For the lawe was geuen by Moses, but grace & trueth came by Iesus Christ. ¹⁸ No man hath sene God at eny tyme. The onely begotten sonne, whych is in the bosome of the father, he hath declared hym. ¹⁹ And thys is the recorde of Iohn: when the Iewes sent Prestes and Leuites from Ierusalem, to aske hym, what art thou? ²⁰ And he confessed & denyed not, & sayde playnly. I am not Chryst. ²¹ And they asked him: what then? art thou Helyas? And he sayeth: I am not. Arte thou that Prophete? And he answered no. ²² Then sayde they vnto hym: what art thou, that we maye geue an answer to them that sent vs. What sayest thou of thy selfe? ²³ He sayde I am the voyce of a criar in the wildernes, make strayght the waye of the Lorde, as sayde the Prophete Esaias. ²⁴ And they whych were sent, were of the Pharyses: ²⁵ And they asked him, & sayde vnto him: why baptisest thou then, yf thou be not Christ, nor Helias, nether that Prophet? ²⁶ Iohn answered them sayinge I baptise with water: but there stondeth one amonge you, whom ye knowe not, ²⁷ he it is which though he came after me, was before me, whose sho latchet I am not worthy to vnlose. ²⁸ These thynges were done in Bethabara beyonde Iordan where Iohn dyd baptise. 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. ³⁰ Thys is he of whom I sayd: After me cometh a man, whych went before me, for he was before me, ³¹ and I knewe him not: but that he shuld be declared to Israell, therfore am I come baptysinge with water. ³² And Iohn bare recorde, sayinge: I sawe the sprete descende from heauen, lyke vnto a doue, & abode vpon him, ³³ and I knewe hym not. But he that sent me to baptise in water, the same sayde vnto me: vpon whom thou shalt se the sprete descende, and tary styll on hym, the same is he whych baptiseth wyth the holy goost. ³⁴ And I sawe, and bare recorde, that he is the sonne of God. ³⁵ The nexte daye after, Iohn stode agayne, & two of his disciples, ³⁶ and he behelde Iesus as he walked by, & sayeth: beholde the lambe of God.

²⁵ And ther arose a question betwene Iohns disciples and the Iewes, aboute purifyinge. ²⁶ And they came vnto Iohn, & sayde vnto him: Rabbi, he that was wyth the beyonde Iordan (to whom thou barest wytnes) beholde the same baptiseth & all men come to hym. ²⁷ Iohn answered, & sayde: a man can receaue nothinge, except it be geuen him from heauen. ²⁸ Ye youre selues are witnesses how that I sayd: I am not Christ, but am sent before him: ²⁹ He that hath the bryde, is the brydegrome. But the frende of the brydegrome, whych standeth and heareth hym, reioyseth greatly because of the brydegromes voyce. This my ioye therfore is fulfilled. ³⁰ He must increace: but I must decreace. ³¹ He that commeth from an hye, is aboue all: He that is of the erth, is earthly, and speaketh of the erth. He that commeth from heauen, is aboue all, ³² & what he hath sene and hearde: that he testifieth: and no man receaueth hys testimonye. ³³ He that hath receaued hys testimonie hath set to hys seale, that God is true. ³⁴ For he whom God hath sent, speaketh the wordes of God: For God geueth not the sprete by measure vnto him. ³⁵ The father loueth the sonne & hath geuen all thynges into hys hande ³⁶ He that beleueth on the sonne hath euerlastinge lyfe: He that beleueth not the sonne, shall not se lyfe, but the wrath of God abydeth on him.

⁷ And as they departed, Iesus beganne to saye vnto the people concerning Iohn. What went ye out into the wyldernes to se? A rede that is shaken with the wynde? ⁸ Or what went ye out for to se? A man clothed in softe rayment? Beholde: they that weare softe clothing: are in kinges houses. ⁹ But what went ye out for to se? A prophete: Uerely I saye vnto you: and more then a Prophete. ¹⁰ For this is he, of whom it is wrytten. Beholde, I sende my messenger before thy face, which shall prepare thy waye before the. ¹¹ Uerely I saye vnto you: amonge them that are borne of wemen, arose not a greater then Iohn the Baptist. Not withstandinge he that is lesse: in the Kyngdome of heauen is gretter then he. ¹² From the dayes of Iohn Baptist vntill this daye, the kyngedom of heuen suffreth violence, and the violent plucke it vnto them. ¹³ For all the prophetes, and the lawe it selfe prophesied vnto Iohn. ¹⁴ And yf ye wyll receaue it this is Helias, which was for to come.

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. ³² For Iohn cam vnto you by the waye of ryghtewesnes, and ye beleued hym not: but publicans & harlottes beleued hym. And ye (whan ye had sene it) were not moued afterwarde wyth repentaunce, that ye myght haue beleued hym.

¹⁵ Iohn beareth wytnes of hym, and cryeth sayinge: Thys was he of whom I spake: which though he came after me, went before me, for he was before me.

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.

³⁴ And I sawe, and bare recorde, that he is the sonne of God.

³⁶ and he behelde Iesus as he walked by, & sayeth: beholde the lambe of God.

⁵ Then went out to hym Ierusalem and all Iewrye, and all the regyon rounde about Iordan, ⁶ and were baptysed of hym in Iordan, confessyng their synnes.

⁹ But what went ye out for to se? A prophete: Uerely I saye vnto you: and more then a Prophete.

⁵ And when he wolde haue put hym to deeth, he feared the people, because they counted him as a prophet.

⁴⁶ And they went about to laye handes on him but they feared the people, because they tooke him as a Prophet

²⁶ But what wente ye forth to se? A prophete? Yee, I saye to you, & more then a prophet. ²⁷ This is he, of whom it is writen: Beholde, I sende myne angell before thy face which shall prepare thy waye before the. ²⁸ For I saye vnto you, amonge wemens children, is ther not a greater prophete then Iohn baptiste. Neuerthelesse, he tha is lesse, in the kingdom of God is greater then he. ²⁹ And all the people, and the publicans that heard him, iustified God, and were baptised with the baptyme of Iohn.

² and the hye Prestes, and Scrybes sought how they myght kyll him, for they feared the people.

⁴¹ And many resorted vnto him, and sayd: Iohn dyd no myracle, but all thynges that Iohn spake of this man were true.

²⁶ Then went the ruler of the temple, with ministres, and brought them without vyolence. For they feared the people, lest they shulde haue bene stoned.

¹³ He compaseth the wyse in their awne craftynes, and ouerthroweth the councell of the wycked.

⁴ Geue not the foole an answere after his foolyshnesse, lest thou become lyke vnto him: ⁵ but make the foole an answere to his foolyshnesse, lest he be wyse in his awne conceate.

³ The oxe hath knowne his owner & the asse his masters cribb: but Israel hath receaued no knowledge, my people hath no vnderstandyng.

⁹ And he sayde, go, and tell this people: ye shall heare in dede, but ye shall not vnderstande: ye shall playnely se, and not perceaue. ¹⁰ Harden the harte of this people, stoppe theyr eares, and shut theyr eyes, that they se not with theyr eyes, heare not with theyr eares, and vnderstand not with theyr hertes, and conuerte and be healed.

⁹ Pondre these thynges once in your myndes, & wondre. Blinded are they them selues and the blind guides of other. They are dronken: but not with wyne: they are vnstable, but not thorowe strong drincke. ¹⁰ For the Lorde hath couered you with a slomberinge sprete, and hath closed your eyes. Your prophetes also & rulers that shuld se, them hath he couered. ¹¹ And the visyon of all the prophetes is become vnto you, as the wordes of a boke that is sealed vp, which men deliuer to one that is learned, saying: Reade thou in it. And he sayth: I cannot, for it is sealed. ¹² And the boke is geuen vnto him that is not learned, saying: Reade thou in it, and he sayth: I am not learned. 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. ¹⁴ Therfore wyll I do maruayls amonge this people, euen maruelous thinges (I saye) & a wonder. For the wysdome of their wise men shall perysh, & the vnderstanding of their wittye men shall hyd it selfe.

¹⁹ Who is blinde, but my seruaunt? Or so deafe, as my messaunger, whom I sent vnto them? For who is so blynde (faye they) as the perfecte man and so blynde as the Lordes seruaunte? ²⁰ Thou vnderstondest moch, and kepest nothynge: the eares are open, & no man heareth.

¹⁰ For hys watchmen are all blynde, they haue all together no vnderstandynge, they are all domme dogges, not beynge able to barcke, they are slepy: slogysh are they, and lye snortynge:

⁷ The Storke in the ayer knoweth hys apoynted tyme, the Turtle doue the Swalow & the Crane consydre the tyme of theyr trauayll, but my people wyll not knowe the tyme of the punyshment of the Lorde. ⁸ How darre ye saye then, we are wyse, we haue the lawe of the Lorde amonge vs? Suerly in vayne hath he prepared his penne, & vaynly haue the wryters wryten it: ⁹ therfore shall the wyse be confounded, they shalbe afrayed & taken: for lo, they haue cast out the worde of the Lorde: what wysdome can then be amonge them?

⁶ my people perish, because they haue no knowledg. Seinge then that thou hast refused vnderstanding, therfore wyll I refuse the also: so that thou shalt nomore be my preste. And for so moche as thou hast forgotten the lawe of thy God, I wyll also forget thy chyldren.

⁷ For in the prestes lyppes shulde be sure knowledge, that men may seke the lawe at his mouth, for he is a messaunger of the Lorde of hostes. ⁸ But as for you, ye are gone clene out of the waye, and haue caused the multitude to be offended at the lawe: ye haue broken the couenaunt of Leui, sayeth the Lorde of hostes.

¹⁴ Let them alone, they be the blynde leaders of the blynde. If the blynde leade the blynde, both shall fall into the dyche.

⁴ The frowarde & aduoutrous nacyon requyreth a sygne, and there shall no sygne be geuen vnto it, but the sygne of the Prophet Ionas. And he lefte them, and departed.

²⁷ And they answered vnto Iesus & sayde: we cannot tell. And he sayd vnto them: nether tell I you, by what auctorite I do these thynges.

¹⁶ Wo be vnto you ye blynde gydes, ffor ye saye: whosoeuer doth sweare by the temple: it is nothynge: but whosoeuer sweareth by the golde of the temple, he is gyltye. ¹⁷ Ye fooles & blinde: For whether is greater: the gold, or the temple that sanctifyeth the gold? ¹⁸ And whosoeuer sweareth by the aultre, it is nothinge, but whosoeuer sweareth by the gyft that is vpon it, he is giltye, ¹⁹ ye foles & blynd for whether is greater? the gyft: or the altare that sanctifieth the gyft? ²⁰ Whoso therfore sweareth by the aultre, sweareth by it, and by all thinges that are there on. ²¹ And whoso sweareth by the temple, sweareth by it, & by hym that dwelleth therin. ²² And he that sweareth by heauen, sweareth by the seate of God, and by hym that sytteth theron. ²³ Wo vnto you Scribes & Pharises, ye ypocrites: For ye tyth mynt, and anyse, & commyn, & haue leaft the wayghtier matters of the lawe: iudgement, mercy, & fayth. These ought ye to haue done, & not to leaue the other vndone. ²⁴ ye blynde gydes, which strayne out agnat, & swalowe a Camell. ²⁵ Wo vnto you Scrybes and pharises, ye ypocrites: for ye make cleane the vtter syde of the cuppe, & of the platter: but within they are full of brybery and excesse. ²⁶ Thou blynde Pharise, clense fyrst that whych is wt in the cup & platter, that the outesyde of them maye be cleane also.

²¹ That same houre reioysed Iesus in ghost, and sayd: I thanke the, O father. Lorde of heauen and earth, that thou hast hyd these thinges from the wyse and prudent, and hast opened them vnto babes. Euen so father, for so pleased it the. ²² All thinges are geuen me of my father. No man knoweth who the sonne is, but the father: and who the father is, but the sonne, & he to whom the sonne wyll shewe hym.

⁶⁶ And assone as it was daye, the elders of the people and the hye Prestes and Scrybes, came together, and ledde hym into their councell, sayinge: ⁶⁷ art thou very Chryst? tell vs. And he sayde vnto them: yf I tell you, ye wyll not beleue. ⁶⁸ And yf I aske you, ye wyll not answere me, nor let me go: ⁶⁹ Her after shall the sonne of man syt on the ryght hand of the power of God.

¹⁰ Iesus answered & sayde vnto hym: art thou a master in Israel, & knowest not these thinges?

²⁷ He answered them: I tolde you yer whyle, and ye dyd not heare. Wherfore wold ye heare it agayne? Wyll ye also be his disciples?

¹⁸ As it is written the iust shall lyue by fayth. For the wrath of God apeareth from heauen agaynst all vngodlynes and vnryghtewesnes of men, whych withholde the trueth in vnrightewesnes: ¹⁹ seynge that it whych maye be knowen of God, is manyfest amonge them because God hath shewed it vnto them. ²⁰ For hys inuisyble thinges (that is to saye hys eternall power ad godhed) are sene, for as moch as they are vnderstande by the workes from the creacyon of the worlde: So that they are wythout excuse ²¹ because that when they knewe God, they glorifyed hym not as God, nether were thankfull but wexed full of vanities in theyr imaginacions, and theyr folysh hert was blynded. ²² When they counted them selues wyse, they became fooles

²⁸ And as they regarded not to knowe God euen so God delyuered them vp vnto a lewde mynde, that they shulde do those thynges whych were not comly,

¹⁵ But euen vnto this daye when Moses is redde the vayle hangeth before their hertes.

³ If oure Gospell be yet hyd, it is hyd amonge them that are lost, ⁴ in whom the God of this world hath blynded the myndes of them which beleue not, lest the lyght of the gospell of the glory of Christ (whych is the ymage of God) shulde shyne vnto them.

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. ¹¹ And therfore, God shall sende them stronge delusyon, that they shulde beleue lyes: ¹² that all they myght be damned, whych beleued not the trueth: but had pleasure in vnryghtewesnes.
