²⁴ And ye worde of God grewe and multiplied.

⁸ But Elemas the sorcerar (for so was his name by interpretacion) wt stode them and sought to turne awaye the ruler fro the fayth.

²² and strengthed the disciples soules exhortinge them to continue in the faith affyrminge yt we must thorowe moche tribulacion entre into the kyngdome of God.

²⁰ So myghtely grewe ye worde of god and prevayled.

²⁰ And when they hearde it they glorified the Lorde and sayde vnto him: thou seist brother how many thousande Iewes ther are which beleve and they are all zelous over ye lawe.

⁵ by whom we have receaved grace and apostleshyppe to bringe all maner hethe people vnto obedience of the fayth that is in his name:

²⁶ but now is opened by ye scriptures of prophesie at the commaundement of the everlastinge god to stere vp obedience to the faith publisshed amonge all nacions:

⁶ which is come vnto you eve as it is in to all ye worlde and is frutefull as it is amoge you fro the fyrst daye in ye which ye herde of it and had experiece in ye grace of God in the trueth

⁸ in flammynge fyre rendrynge vengeaunce vnto them that knowe not God and to them that obeye not vnto the gospell of oure Lorde Iesus Christ

⁹ wherin I suffre trouble as an evyll doar even vnto bondes. But the worde of god was not bounde.

⁹ and was made parfaite and the cause of eternall saluacion vnto all them that obey him:

⁸ By fayth Abraha whe he was called obeyed to goo out into a place which he shuld afterwarde receave to inheritaunce and he wet out not knowynge whether he shuld goo.

⁴⁸ Then sayde Iesus vnto him: excepte ye se signes and wodres ye canot beleve.

¹⁷ It shalbe in the last dayes sayth God: of my sprete I will powre out vpon all flesshe. And youre sonnes and youre doughters shall prophesy and youre yoge men shall se visions and youre olde me shall dreme dremes. ¹⁸ And on my servauts and on my honde maydens I will powre out of my sprete in those dayes and they shall prophesye.

²⁹ And now Lorde beholde their threatenynges and graunte vnto thy servauntes with all confidence to speake thy worde. ³⁰ So that thou stretche forth thy honde that healynge and signes and wonders be done by the name of thy holy chylde Iesus.

⁵ And the sayinge pleased the whoale multitude. And they chose Steven a man full of fayth and of the holy goost and Philip and Prochorus and Nichanor and Timon and Permenas and Nicholas a converte of Antioche.

¹⁵ And all that sate in ye counsell loked stedfastly on him and sawe his face as it had bene the face of an angell.

⁵⁵ But he beynge full of the holy goost loked vp stedfastlye with his eyes into heven and sawe the glorie of God and Iesus stondynge on the ryght honde of God

⁶ And the people gave hede vnto those thinges which Philip spake with one acorde in that they hearde and sawe the miracles which he dyd.

¹¹ And the very same made some Apostles some prophetes some Evangelistes some Sheperdes some Teachers:

¹³ For they that minister well get them selves good degre and greate libertie in the fayth which is in Christ Iesu.

¹⁷ And ye shall be brought to the heed rulers and kynges for my sake in witnes to them and to the gentyls.

³⁴ Wherfore beholde I sende vnto you prophetes wyse men and scribes and of the ye shall kyll and crucifie: and of the ye shall scourge in youre synagoges and persecute from cyte to cyte

³² And as they came out they fonnde a man of Cyren named Simon: him they compelled to beare his crosse.

⁹ But take ye hede to youre selves. For they shall bringe you vp to ye counsels and into ye synagoges and ye shalbe beaten: ye and shalbe brought before rulers and kynges for my sake for a testimoniall vnto them.

¹² But before all these they shall laye their hondes on you and persecute you delyueringe you vp to the sinagoges and into preson and bringe you before kynges and rulers for my names sake.

⁹ Parthians Medes and Elamytes and the inhabiters of Mesopotamia of Iury and of Capadocia of Ponthus and Asia ¹⁰ Phrigia Pamphilia and of Egypte and of the parties of Libia which is besyde Syrene and straungers of Rome Iewes and convertes

⁴⁵ When ye Iewes sawe the people they were full of indignacion and spake agaynst those thinges which were spoken of Paul spekinge agaynst it and raylinge on it.

⁴¹ And he went thorowe all Cyria and Cilicia stablisshynge the congregacions.

⁶ When they had goone thorow out Phrigia and the region of Galacia and were forbydde of the holy gost to preach the worde in Asia

¹⁷ Then he disputed in the synagoge wt the Iewes and with the devout persones and in the market dayly with the that came vnto him. ¹⁸ Certayne philosophers of ye Epicures and of ye stoyckes disputed with him. And some ther were which sayde: what will this babler saye. Other sayd: he semeth to be a tydynges bringer of newe devyls because he preached vnto them Iesus and the resurreccion.

²⁴ And a certayne Iewe named Apollos borne at Alexandria came to Ephesus an eloquent man and myghty in the scriptures.

¹⁰ And this contynued by the space of two yeares: so yt all they which dwelt in Asia hearde the worde of the lorde Iesu bothe Iewes and Grekes.

²⁶ Moreover ye se and heare that not alone at Ephesus but almost thorowe oute all Asia this Paul hath persuaded and turned awaye moche people saying yt they be not goddes which are made wt hondes.

²⁷ And as the seven dayes shuld have bene ended ye Iewes which were of Asia when they sawe him in the teple they moved all the people and layde hondes on him

³⁹ But Paul sayde: I am a ma which am a Iewe of Tharsus a cite in Cicill a Citesyn of no vyle cite I beseche ye soffre me to speake vnto ye people.

³ I am verely aman which am a Iewe borne in Tharsus a cite in Cicill: neverthelesse yet brought vp in this cite at ye fete of Gamaliel and informed diligently in the lawe of the fathers and was fervent mynded to Godwarde as ye all are this same daye

¹⁹ And I sayde: Lorde they knowe that I presoned and bet in every synagoge them that beleved on the.

³⁴ When the debite had redde the letter he axed of what countre he was and when he vnderstode that he was of Cicill

¹¹ And I punysshed them ofte in every synagoge and compelled them to blaspheme: and was yet more mad apon them and persecuted the even vnto straunge cities.

⁵ Then sayled we over the see of Cilicia and Pamphylia and came to Myra a cite in Lycia. ⁶ And there ye vnder captayne founde a shippe of Alexander redy to sayle into Italy and put vs therin.

²⁰ Where is the wyse? Where is the scrybe? Where is the searcher of this worlde? ²¹ After that I went into the costes of Siria and Cilicia:

¹² Go therfore and I wilbe with thy mouth and teach the what thou shalt saye.

¹⁹ For it is not ye that speke but ye sprite of your father which speaketh in you. ²⁰ The brother shall betraye the brother to deeth and the father the sonne. And the chyldre shall aryse agaynste their fathers and mothers and shall put them to deethe:

¹⁷ And he shall goo before him in the sprete and power of Helyas to tourne the hertes of the fathers to the chyldren and the vnbelevers to the wysdom of the iuste men: to make the people redy for the Lorde.

¹¹ When they bringe you vnto the synagoges and vnto the rulers and officers take no thought how or what thinge ye shall answer or what ye shall speake. ¹² For the holy goost shall teache you in the same houre what ye ought to saye.

¹⁵ for I will geve you a mouth and wisdome where agaynste all youre adversarys shall not be able to speake nor resist.

⁴⁶ The servautes answered never man spake as this man doeth.

³⁹ But and yf it be of God ye can not destroye it lest haply ye be founde to stryve agaynst God.

⁵¹ Ye stiffenecked and of vncircumcised hertes and eares: ye have all wayes resisted the holy goost: as youre fathers dyd so do ye.

⁴ And my wordes and my preachinge were not with entysynge wordes of manes wysdome: but in shewinge of ye sprete and of power

¹⁶ And he that blasphemeth the name of the Lorde, shall dye for it: all the multitude shall stone him to deeth. And the straunger as well as the Israelite yf he curse the name, shall dye for it.

⁵⁹ The chefe prestes and the elders and all the counsell sought false witnes agenste Iesus for to put him to deeth ⁶⁰ but founde none: in somoche that when many false witnesses cam yet founde they none. At the last came two false witnesses

¹² And they gaddered them to gedder with the elders and toke counsell and gave large money vnto the soudiers ¹³ sayinge: Saye that his disciples came by nyght and stole him awaye whill ye slept. ¹⁴ And if this come to the rulers cares we wyll pease him and save you harmeles. ¹⁵ And they toke the money and dyd as they were taught. And this sayinge is noysed amoge the Iewes vnto this daye.

¹⁷ For the lawe was geven by Moses but grace and truthe came by Iesus Christ.

⁴⁵ Doo not thinke that I wyll accuse you to my father. Ther is one that accuseth you eve Moses in whom ye trust. ⁴⁶ For had ye beleved Moses ye wold have beleved me: for he wrote of me. ⁴⁷ But now ye beleve not his writinge: how shall ye beleve my wordes.

²⁹ We are sure that God spake with Moses. This felowe we knowe not from whence he is.

³³ The Iewes answered him sayinge. For thy good workes sake we stone ye not: but for thy blasphemy and because that thou beinge a man makest thy selfe God. ³⁴ Iesus answered them: Is it not written in youre lawe: I saye ye are goddes? ³⁵ If he called the goddes vnto whom the worde of God was spoken (and the scripture can not be broken) ³⁶ saye ye then to him whom the father hath sainctified and sent into the worlde thou blasphemest because I sayd I am the sonne of God?

³ And suche thinges will they do vnto you because they have not knowen the father nether yet me.

¹³ and brought forth falce witnesses which sayde. This ma ceasith not to speake blasphemous wordes agaynst this holy place and the lawe:

³⁷ This is that Moses which sayde vnto the chyldre of Israel: A Prophet shall the Lorde youre God rayse vp vnto you of youre brethren lyke vnto me him shall ye heare. ³⁸ This is he that was in ye congregacion in the wyldernes with the angell which spake to him in ye moute Syna and with oure fathers. This man receaved the worde of lyfe to geve vnto vs ³⁹ to who oure fathers wolde not obeye but cast it from them and in their hertes turned backe agayne into Egypte

²¹ For Moses of olde tyme hath in every cite that preache him and he is rede in the synagoges every saboth daye.

⁶ And whe they sayde cotrary and blasphemed he shoke his rayment and sayde vnto the: youre bloud apon youre awne heeddes and fro hence forth I goo blamelesse vnto ye gentyls.

²⁰ And when they hearde it they glorified the Lorde and sayde vnto him: thou seist brother how many thousande Iewes ther are which beleve and they are all zelous over ye lawe. ²¹ And they are informed of the that thou teachest all the Iewes which are amoge the gentyls to forsake Moses and sayst that they ought not to circumcise their chyldren nether to live after the customes. ²² What is it therfore? The multitude must nedes come togeder. For they shall heare that thou arte come.

²⁸ cryinge: men of Israel helpe. This is the man that teacheth all men every where agaynst the people and the lawe and this place. Moreover also he hath brought Grekes into the teple and hath polluted this holy place.

¹² When daye was come certayne of the Iewes gaddered them selves to geder and made a vowe sayinge that they wolde nether eate nor drinke till they had killed Paul. ¹³ They were aboute .xl. which had made this conspiracio. ¹⁴ And they cam to ye chefe prestes and elders and sayde: we have boude oure selves with a vowe that we will eate nothinge vntill we have slayne Paul. ¹⁵ Now therfore geve ye knowlege to the vpper captayne and to the counsell that he bringe him forth vnto vs to morow as though we wolde knowe some thinge more perfectly of him. But we (or ever he come neare) are redy in ye meane season to kill him.

¹ After .v. dayes Ananias the hye preste descended with elders and with a certayne Oratour named Tartullus and enformed the ruelar of Paul. ² When Paul was called forth Tartullus beganne to accuse him saying: Seynge yt we live in great quyetnes by the meanes of the and that many good thinges are done vnto this nacion thorow thy providence: ³ that alowe we ever and in all places most myghty Felix with all thankes. ⁴ Notwithstondinge that I be not tedeous vnto the I praye the that thou woldest heare vs of thy curtesy a feawe wordes. ⁵ We have founde this ma a pestilent felowe and a mover of debate vnto all the Iewes thorowe out the worlde and a mayntayner of ye secte of the Nazarites ⁶ and hath also enforsed to pollute the temple. Whom we toke and wolde have iudged acordinge to oure lawe: ⁷ but the hye captayne Lisias came vpon vs and with great violence toke him awaye out of oure hodes ⁸ comaundinge his accusars to come vnto the. Of who thou mayst (yf thou wilt enquyre) knowe the certayne of all these thinges where of we accuse him. ⁹ The Iewes lyke wyse affermed sayinge that it was even so. ¹⁰ Then Paul (after that the rular him selfe had beckened vnto him that he shuld speake) answered: I shall with a moare quyet minde answere for my selfe for as moche as I vnderstonde yt thou hast bene of many yeares a iudge vnto this people ¹¹ because that thou mayst knowe yt there are yet .xii. dayes sence I went vp to Ierusalem for to praye ¹² and that they nether founde me in the teple disputinge with eny man other raysinge vp the people nether in the Synagoges nor in the cite. ¹³ Nether can they prove ye thinges wher of they accuse me.

³ and desired faveour agaynst him that he wold sende for him to Ierusalem: and layde awayte for him in the waye to kill him.

⁷ When he was come the Iewes which were come fro Ierusalem came aboute him and layde many and greveous complayntes agaynst Paul which they coulde not prove

⁸ and saye not rather (as men evyll speake of vs and as some affirme that we saye) let vs do evyll that good maye come therof. Whose damnacion is iuste.

¹³ when before I was a blasphemar and a persecuter and a tyraut. But I obtayned mercy because I dyd it ignorautly thorow vnbelefe.

² which was faythfull to him that made him even as was Moses in all his housse. ³ And this man was counted worthy of more glory then Moses: In as moche as he which hath prepared the housse hath most honoure in the housse. ⁴ Every housse is prepared of some man. But he that ordeyned all thinges is god. ⁵ And Moses verely was faythfull in all his housse as a minister to beare witnes of tho thinges which shuld be spoken afterwarde.

²² But I say vnto you whosoever is angre with hys brother shalbe in daunger of iudgement. Whosoeuer sayeth vnto his brother Racha shalbe in dauger of a cousell. But whosoeuer sayeth thou fole shalbe in dauger of hell fyre.

⁵⁷ Then all the disciples forsoke him and fleed. And they toke Iesus and leed him to Cayphas the hye preeste where the Scribes and the Elders where assembled.

¹ As they spake vnto the people the prestes and the rular of the teple and the Saduces came vpon them ² takynge it grevously that they taught ye pople and preached in Iesus the resurreccion fro deeth. ³ And they layde hondes on them and put them in holde vntill the nexte daye: for it was now even tyde.

¹⁸ and layde hondes on the Apostles and put them in the comen preson.

²⁷ And when they had brought them they set them before the counsell. And ye chefe preste axed the

⁵⁰ But the Iewes moved ye worshypfull and honorable wemen and the chefe men of the cyte and reysed persecucio agaynst Paul and Barnabas and expelled them oute of their costes.

² But the unbelevinge Iewes steryd vp and vnquyeted the myndes of the Gentyls agaynste the brethre.

¹⁹ And when her master and mastres sawe yt the hope of their gaynes was gone they caught Paul and Sylas and drue the into the market place vnto the rulars ²⁰ and brought them to the officers sayinge: These men trouble oure cite which are Iewes ²¹ and preache ordinaunces which are not laufull for vs to receave nether to observe seinge we are Romayns.

⁵ But the Iewes which beleved not havynge indignacio toke vnto the evyll men which were vagabondes and gadered a company and set all the cite on a roore and made asaute vnto the housse of Iason and sought to bringe the out to the people. ⁶ But when they founde them not they drue Iason and certayne brethren vnto the heedes of the cite cryinge: these that trouble the worlde are come hydder also

¹³ When the Iewes of Thessalonia had knowledge that ye worde of God was preached of Paul at Berrea they came there and moved the people.

¹² When Gallio was rular of the countre of Acaia the Iewes made insurreccion with one accorde agaynst Paul and brought him to the iudgement seate

¹⁵ When ye therfore shall se ye abhominacio that betokeneth desolacion spoken of by Daniell the Prophet stonde in ye holy place: let him that redeth it vnderstonde it.

¹¹ Then sent they in men which sayd: we have hearde him speake blasphemous wordes agaynst Moses and agaynst God.

⁵⁸ and caste him out of the cite and stoned him. And the witnesses layde doune their clothes at a yonge mannes fete named Saul.

⁸ as longe as he answered for him selfe that he had nether agaynst the lawe of the Iewes nether agaynst the temple nor yet agaynst Cesar offended eny thinge at all.

¹ And Iesus went out and departed fro the teple: and his disciples came to hym for to shewe him the byldinge of the teple. ² Iesus sayde vnto the: se ye not all these thinges? Verely I saye vnto you: ther shall not be here lefte one stone vpon another that shall not be cast doune.

⁶¹ and sayd: This felowe sayde: I can distroye the temple of God and bylde it agayne in .iii. dayes.

⁵⁸ We herde him saye: I will destroye this temple made with hondes and with in thre dayes I will bylde another made with out hondes.

³⁴ O Ierusalem Ierusalem which kyllest prophetes and stonest them that are sent to ye: how often wolde I have gadered thy childre to gedder as the hen gathereth her nest vnder her wynges but ye wolde not. ³⁵ Beholde youre habitacion shalbe left vnto you desolate. For I tell you ye shall not se me vntill the tyme come that ye shall saye blessed is he that commeth in the name of the Lorde.

⁶ The dayes will come whe of these thynges which ye se shall not be lefte stone apon stone that shall not be throwen doune.

²⁴ And they shall fall on the edge of the swearde and shalbe leed captive into all nacions. And Ierusalem shalbe trooden vnder fote of the gentyls vntyll the tyme of the gentyls be fulfilled.

²¹ Iesus sayde vnto her: woman beleve me the houre cometh when ye shall nether in this moutayne nor yet at Ierusalem worshippe the father.

¹ Then cam certayne from Iewrie and taught the brethren: excepte ye be circumcysed after the maner of Moses ye cannot be saved.

²¹ And they are informed of the that thou teachest all the Iewes which are amoge the gentyls to forsake Moses and sayst that they ought not to circumcise their chyldren nether to live after the customes.

³ namely because thou arte experte in all customes and questions which are amonge the Iewes. Wherfore I beseche the to heare me paciently.

¹⁷ And it fortuned after thre dayes that Paul called ye chefe of ye Iewes together. And whe they were come he sayde vnto the: Men and brethren though I have comitted nothinge agaynst the people or lawes of oure fathers: yet was I delyvered presoner from Ierusalem in to the hondes of ye Romayns.

¹⁹ Wherfore then serveth ye lawe? The lawe was added because of transgression (tyll the seed cam to which ye promes was made) and it was ordeyned by angels in ye honde of a mediator.

²³ Before yt fayth cam we were kept and shut vp vnder the lawe vnto the fayth which shuld afterwarde be declared.

³ Even so we as longe as we were chyldren were in bondage vnder the ordinaunces of the worlde. ⁴ But when the tyme was full come God sent his sonne borne of a woman and made bonde vnto ye lawe ⁵ to redeme the which were vnder the lawe: yt we thorow eleccion myght receave the inheritauce yt belongeth vnto the naturall sonnes.

¹¹ Yf now therfore perfeccion came by the presthod of the levites (for vnder that presthod the people recaved the lawe) what neded it furthermore that an other prest shuld ryse after the order of Melchisedech and not after the order of Aaron? ¹² Now no dout yf the presthod be translated then of necessitie must the lawe be translated also. ¹³ For he of whom these thynges are spoken pertayneth vnto another trybe of which never man served at the aultre. ¹⁴ For it is evidet that oure lorde spronge of the trybe of Iuda of which trybe spake Moses nothynge concernynge presthod. ¹⁵ And it is yet a more evydent thinge yf after the similitude of Melchisedech ther aryse a nother prest ¹⁶ which is not made after the lawe of the carnall commaundmet: but after the power of the endlesse lyfe ¹⁷ (For he testifieth: Thou arte a prest forever after the order of Melchysedech) ¹⁸ Then the commaundmet that went a fore is disanulled because of hir weaknes and vnproffitablenes. ¹⁹ For the lawe made nothynge parfecte: but was an introduccion of a better hope by which hope we drawe nye vnto god.

⁶ Now hath he obtayned a more excellent office in as moche as he is the mediator of a better testament which was made for better promyses. ⁷ For yf that fyrst testament had bene fautelesse: then shuld no place have bene sought for the seconde. ⁸ For in rebukynge them he sayth: Beholde the dayes will come (sayth the lorde) and I will fynnyshe apon the housse of Israhel, and apon the housse of Iuda, a newe testament: ⁹ not lyke the testament that I made with their fathers at that tyme, when I toke them by the hondes, to lede them oute of the londe of Egipte, for they continued not in my testament, and I regarded them not sayth the lorde.
¹⁰ For this is the testament that I will make with the housse of Israhell: After those dayes sayth the lorde: I will put my lawes in their myndes, and in their hertes I will wryte them, and I wilbe their God, and they shalbe my people. ¹¹ And they shall not teache, every man his neghboure, and every man his brother, sayinge: knowe the lorde: For they shall knowe me, from the lest to the moste of them: ¹² For I wilbe mercifull over their vnrightwesnes, and on their synnes and on their iniquities. ¹³ In that he sayth a new testament he hath abrogat the olde. Now that which is disanulled and wexed olde, is redy to vannysshe awaye.

⁹ Which was a similitude for the tyme then present and in which were offered gyftes and sacrifises that coulde not make them that minister parfecte as pertaynynge to the conscience ¹⁰ with only meates and drinkes and divers wesshynges and iustifyinges of the flesshe which were ordeyned vntyll the tyme of reformacion. ¹¹ But Christ beynge an hye prest of good thynges to come came by a greater and a moare parfecte tabernacle not made with hondes: that is to saye not of this maner bildynge

¹ For the lawe which hath but the shadowe of good thynges to come and not the thynges in their awne fassion can never with ye sacryfises which they offer yere by yere continually make the comers thervnto parfayte. ² For wolde not then those sacrifises have ceased to have bene offered because that the offerers once pourged shuld have had no moare conscieces of sinnes. ³ Neverthelesse in those sacrifises is ther mencion made of synnes every yeare. ⁴ For it is vnpossible that the bloud of oxen and of gotes shuld take awaye synnes. ⁵ Wherfore when he commeth into the worlde he sayth: Sacrifice and offeringe thou woldest not have: but a bodie hast thou ordeyned me. ⁶ In sacrifices and synne offerynges thou hast no lust. ⁷ Then I sayde: Lo I come in the chefest of the boke it is written of me that I shuld doo thy will o god. ⁸ Above when he had sayed sacrifice and offerynge and burnt sacrifices and synne offerynges thou woldest not have nether hast alowed (which yet are offered by the lawe) ⁹ and then sayde: Lo I come to do thy will o god: he taketh awaye the fyrst to stablisshe the latter. ¹⁰ By the which will we are sanctified by the offeringe of the body of Iesu Christe once for all. ¹¹ And every prest is redy dayly ministrynge and ofte tymes offereth one maner of offerynge which can never take awaye synnes. ¹² But this man after he had offered one sacrifyce for synnes sat him doune for ever on the right honde of god ¹³ and from hence forth tarieth till his foes be made his fotestole. ¹⁴ For with one offerynge hath he made parfecte for ever them yt are sanctified. ¹⁵ And ye holy goost also beareth vs recorde of this even when he tolde before: ¹⁶ This is the testament that I will make vnto them after those dayes sayth the lorde. I will put my lawes in their hertes and in their mynde I will write them ¹⁷ and their synnes and iniquyties will I remember no moare. ¹⁸ And where remission of these thinges is there is no moare offerynge for synne.

²⁶ whose voyce the shouke the erth and now declareth sayinge: yet once more will I shake not the erth only but also heven. ²⁷ No dout yt same that he sayth yet once more signifieth the removinge a waye of those thinges which are shaken as of thinges which have ended their course: that the thynges which are not shaken maye remayne. ²⁸ Wherfore if we receave a kyngdom which is not moved we have grace wherby we maye serve god and please him with reverence and godly feare.

²⁹ And Moses came doune from mount Sinai and the .ij. tables of witnesse in his hande, and yet he wyst not that the skynne of his face shone with beames of his comenynge with him. ³⁰ And when Aaron and all the childern of Israel loked apon Moses and sawe that the skynne of his face shone with beames, they were a frayde to come nye him. ³¹ But he called the to him, and then Aaron and all the chefe of the companye came vnto him, ad Moses talked with them. ³² And at the last all the childern of Israel came vnto him, and he commaunded them all that the Lorde had sayde vnto him in mount Sinai. ³³ And as soone as he had made an ende of comenynge with them, he put a couerynge apo his face. ³⁴ But whe he went before the Lorde to speak with him, he toke the couerige of vntill he came out. And he came out and spake vnto the childern of Israel that which he was commaunded. ³⁵ And the childern of Israel sawe the face of Moses, that the skynne of his face shone with beames: but Moses put a couerynge vppon his face, vntill he went in, to comen with him.

⁴³ Then shall the iuste men shyne as bryght as the sunne in ye kyngdome of their father. Whosoever hath eares to heare let him heare.

² and was transfygured before them: and his face did shyne as the sunne and his clothes were as whyte as the light.

⁷ Yf the ministracion of deeth thorow the letters figured in stones was glorious so yt the chyldren of Israel coulde not beholde the face of Moses for the glory of his countenauce (which glory neverthelesse is done awaye) ⁸ why shall not the ministracion of the sprete be moche more glorious?

¹⁸ But we all beholde the glorye of the Lorde with his face open and are chaunged vnto the same similitude from glory to glory even of the sprite of the Lorde.
