The Bible (Old and New Testaments)

Also no man that drinketh olde wine strayght waye can awaye with newe for he sayeth the olde is plesauter.

It happened on an after saboth that he went thorow the corne felde and that his disciples plucked the eares of corne and ate and rubbed them in their hondes.

And certayne of the Pharises sayde vnto them: Why do the that which is not laufull to do on the saboth dayes?

And Iesus answered them and sayde: Have ye not redde what David dyd when he him sylfe was anhungred and they which were with him:

how he went into the housse of God and toke and ate the loves of halowed breed and gave also to them which were with him: which was not laufull to eate but for the prestes only.

And he sayde vnto them: The sonne of man is Lorde of the saboth daye.

And it fortuned in a nother saboth also that he entred in to the sinagoge and taught. And ther was a man whose right honde was dryed vp.

And the Scribes and Pharises watched him to se whether he wolde heale on the Saboth daye that they myght fynde an accusacion agaynst him.

But he knewe their thoughtes and sayde to the man which had the wyddred honde: Ryse vp and stonde forthe in the myddes. And he arose and stepped forthe.

Then sayde Iesus vnto them: I will axe you a question: Whether is it laufull on the saboth dayes to do good or to do evill? to save lyfe or for to destroye it?

And he behelde them all in compasse and sayd vnto the man: Stretche forth thy honde. And he dyd so and his honde was restored and made as whoole as the other.

And they were filled full of madnes and communed one with another what they myght do to Iesu.

And it fortuned in thoose dayes that he went out into a mountayne for to praye and cotinued all nyght in prayer to god.

And assone as it was daye he called his disciples and of the he chose twelve which also he called apostles.

Simon who he named Peter: and Andrew his brother. Iames and Ihon Philip and Bartlemew

Mathew and Thomas Iames the sonne of Alpheus and Simon called zelotes

and Iudas Iames sonne and Iudas Iscarioth which same was the traytour.

And he came doune with them and stode in the playne felde with the company of his disciples and agreate multitude of people out of all parties of Iurie and Ierusalem and from the see cooste of Tire and Sidon which came to heare hym and to be healed of their diseases:

and they also that were vexed with foule spretes and they were healed.

And all the people preased to touche him: for there went vertue out of him and healed them all.

And he lifted vp his eyes apon the disciples and sayde: Blessed be the poore: for yours is the kyngdome of God.

Blessed are ye that honger now: for ye shalbe satisfied.

Blessed are ye that wepe now: for ye shall laugh. Blessed are ye when men hate you and thrust you oute of their companye and rayle and abhorre youre name as an evyll thinge for the sonne of manes sake.

Reioyse ye then and be gladde: for beholde youre rewarde is greate in heven. After this manner their fathers entreated the Prophetes.

But wo be to you that are ryche: for ye have therin youre consolacion.

Wo be to you that are full: for ye shall honger. Wo be to you that now laugh: for ye shall wayle and wepe.

Wo be to you when all men prayse you: for so dyd their fathers to the false prophetes.

But I saye vnto you which heare: Love youre enemyes. Do good to the which hate you.

Blesse the that course you. And praye for the which wrongfully trouble you.

And vnto him that smyteth the on the one cheke offer also the other. And him that taketh awaye thy goune forbid not to take thy coote also.

Geve to every man that axeth of the. And of him that taketh awaye thy goodes axe them not agayne.

And as the wolde that men shuld doo to you: so do ye to them lyke wyse.

If ye love the which love you: what thanke are ye worthy of? For the very synners love their lovers.

And yf ye do for them which do for you: what thanke are ye worthy of? For the very synners do even the same.

If ye lende to them of whome ye hoope to receave: what thanke shall ye have: for the very synners lende to synners to receave as moch agayne.

Wherfore love ye youre enemys do good and lende lokynge for nothinge agayne and youre rewarde shalbe greate and ye shalbe the chyldren of the hyest: for he is kynde vnto the vnkynde and to the evyll.

Be ye therfore mercifull as youre father is mercifull.

Iudge not and ye shall not be Iudged. Condemne not: and ye shall not be condemned. Forgeve and ye shalbe forgeven.

Geve and that shalbe geven vnto you: good measure pressed doune shaken to geder and runnynge over shall men geve into youre bosomes. For with what measure ye mete with ye same shall men mete to you agayne.

And he put forthe a similitude vnto the: Can the blynde leade the blynde? Do they not both then fall into the dyche?

The disciple is not above his master. Every man shalbe perfecte even as his master is.

Why seyst thou a moote in thy brothers eye and considerest not the beame that is in thyne awne eye?

Ether how cannest thou saye to thy brother: Brother let me pull out the moote that is in thyne eye: when thou perceavest not the beame that is in thyne awne eye? Ypocrite cast out the beame out of thyne awne eye fyrst and then shalt thou se perfectly to pull out the moote out of thy brothers eye.

It is not a good tree that bringeth forthe evyll frute: nether is that an evyll tree that bringeth forthe good frute.

For every tree is knowen by his frute. Nether of thornes gader men fygges nor of busshes gader they grapes.

A good man out of the good treasure of his hert bringeth forthe that which is good. And an evyll man out of the evyll treasure of his hert bringeth forthe that which ys evyll. For of the aboundaunce of the her his mouthe speakethe.

Why call ye me Master, Master: and do not as I bid you?

whosoever cometh to me and heareth my sayinges and dothe the same I will shewe you to whome he ys lyke.

He is like a man which bilt an housse: and digged depe and layde the foundacion on a rocke. When the waters arose the fludde bet apon that housse and coulde not move that. For it was grounded apon a rocke.

But he that heareth and doth not is lyke a man that with out foundacion bylt an housse apon the erth agaynst which the fludde did bet: and it fell by and by. And the fall of that housse was greate.

When he had ended all his sainges in the audience of the people he entred into Capernaum.

And a certayne Centurions seruaunte was sicke and redy to dye whom he made moche of.

And when he hearde of Iesu he sent vnto him the elders of the Iewes besechinge him that he wolde come and heale his servaunt.

And they came to Iesus and besought him instantly sayinge: He is worthi that thou shuldest do this for him.

For he loveth oure nacion and hath bilt vs a sinagoge

And Iesus went with them. And when he was not farre from the housse the Centurion sent frendes to him sayinge vnto him: Lorde trouble not thy silfe: for I am not worthy that thou shuldest enter vnder my roffe.

Wherfore I thought not my silfe worthy to come vnto the: but saye the worde and my servaunt shalbe whoole.

For I lyke wyse am a man vnder power and have vnder me soudiers and I saye vnto won goo: and he goeth. And to another come: and he cometh. And to my servaunt do this: and he doeth it.

When Iesus herde this he merveyled at him and turned him about and sayd to the people that folowed him: I saye vnto you I have not founde so greate faith noo not in Israel.

And they that were sent turned backe home agayne and founde the servaunt that was sicke whoole.

And it fortuned after that that he went into a cite called Naim and many of his disciples went with him and moche people.

When he came nye to the gate of the cite: beholde ther was a deed man caried out which was the only sonne of his mother and she was a widowe and moche people of the cite was with her.

And when the lorde sawe her he had compassion on her and sayde vnto her: wepe not.

And he went and touched the coffyn and they that bare him stode still. And he sayde: Yonge man I saye vnto the aryse.

And the deed sate vp and beganne to speake. And he delyvered him to his mother.

And ther came a feare on the all. And they glorified god sayinge: a greate prophet is rysen amonge vs and god hath visited his people

And this rumor of him wet forthe throughout all Iurie and thorowout all the regions which lye rounde about.

And the disciples of Iohn shewed him of all these thinges.

And Iohn called vnto him .ii. of his disciples and sent the to Iesus sayinge: Arte thou he that shall come: or shall we loke for another?

When the men were come vnto him they sayde: Iohn baptiste sent vs vnto ye sayinge: Arte thou he that shall come: or shall we wayte for another?

And at the same tyme he cured many of their infirmites and plages and of evyll spretes and vnto many that were blynde he gave sight.

And Iesus answered and sayd vnto them: Goo youre wayes and shewe Iohn what thinges ye have sene and harde: how that the blynde se the halt goo the lepers are clensed the deafe heare the deed aryse to the poore is the glad tydinges preached

and happy is he that is not offended by me.

When the messengers of Iohn were departed he began to speake vnto the people of Iohn What wet ye oute into the wildernes for to se? went ye to se arede shaken with the wynde?

But what went ye out for tose? A man clothed in soofte rayment? Beholde they which are gorgeously apparelled and lyve delicatly are in kynges courtes.

But what went ye forth to se? A prophete? Ye I saye to you and moare then a prophete.

This is he of who it is wrytten: Beholde I sende my messenger before thy face to prepare thy waye before the.

For I saye vnto you: a greater prophete then Iohn amonge wemes chyldre is ther none. Neverthelesse one that is lesse in the kyngdo of god is greater the he.

And all the people that hearde and the publicans iustified God and were baptised with the baptism of Iohn.

But the pharises and scribes despised the counsell of god agaynst them selves and were not baptised of him.

And the lorde sayd: Wher vnto shall I lyke the men of this generacion and what thinge are they lyke?

They are lyke vnto chyldre sittynge in the market place and cryinge one to another and sayinge: We have pyped vnto you and ye have not daunsed: we have mourned to you and ye have not wept.

For Iohn baptist cam nether eatynge breed ner drinkynge wyne and ye saye: he hath the devyll.

The sonne of man is come and eateth and drinketh and ye saye: beholde a man which is a glotton and a drinker of wyne a frende of publicans and synners.

Yet is wysdome iustified of all her chyldren.

And one of the pharises desyred him that he wolde eate with him. And he went into the pharises housse and sate doune to meate.

And beholde a woman in that cite which was a synner assone as she knewe that. Iesus sate at meate in the pharises housse she brought an alablaster boxe of oyntment

and she stode at his fete behynde him wepynge and beganne to wesshe his fete with teares and dyd wipe the with the heares of her heed and kyssed his fete and anoynted them with oyntment.

When the pharise which bade him sawe that he spake with in him sylfe sayinge: If this man were a prophete he wolde surely have knowen who and what maner woman this is which toucheth him for she is a synner.

And Iesus answered and sayde vnto him: Simon I have some what to saye vnto the. And he sayd master saye on.

There was a certayne lender which had two detters the one ought five hondred pence and the other fyfty.

When they had nothinge to paye he forgave the boothe. Which of them tell me will love him moost?

Simon answered and sayde: I suppose that he to whom he forgave moost. And he sayde vnto him: Thou hast truly iudged.

And he turned to the woman and sayde vnto Simon: Seist thou this woman? I entred into thy housse and thou gavest me noo water to my fete but she hath wesshed my fete with teares and wiped the with the heeres of her heed.

Thou gavest me no kysse: but she sence the tyme I came in hath not ceased to kysse my fete

Myne heed with oyle thou dydest not anoynte: but she hath annoynted my fete with oyntmet.

Wherefore I saye vnto the: many synnes are forgeve her for she loved moche. To whom lesse is forgeven the same doeth lesse love.

And he sayde vnto her thy synnes are forgeven the.

And they that sate at meate with him beganne to saye within them selves: Who is this which forgeveth synnes also?

And he sayde to the woman: Thy faith hath saved the Goo in peace.
