³⁴¶ But when the Pharisees had heard that he had put the Sadducees to silence, they were gathered together.

³⁵Then one of them, which was a lawyer, asked him a question, tempting him, and saying,

³⁶Master, which is the great commandment in the law?

³⁷Jesus said unto him, Thou shalt love the Lord thy God with all thy heart, and with all thy soul, and with all thy mind.

³⁸This is the first and great commandment.

³⁹And the second is like unto it, Thou shalt love thy neighbour as thyself.

⁴⁰On these two commandments hang all the law and the prophets.

³⁴¶ ^*But when the Pharises had heard that he had put the Sadduces to silence, they were gathered together.

³⁵Then one of them, which was a Lawyer, asked him a question, tempting him, and saying,

³⁶Master, which is the great Commandement in the Law?

³⁷Iesus sayd vnto him, ^*Thou shalt loue the Lord thy God with all thy heart, and with all thy soule, and with all thy minde.

³⁸This is the first and great Commandement.

³⁹And the second is like vnto it, ^*Thou shalt loue thy neighbour as thy selfe.

⁴⁰On these two Commandements hang all the Law and the Prophets.

²⁵¶ And, behold, a certain lawyer stood up, and tempted him, saying, Master, what shall I do to inherit eternal life?

²⁶He said unto him, What is written in the law? how readest thou?

²⁷And he answering said, Thou shalt love the Lord thy God with all thy heart, and with all thy soul, and with all thy strength, and with all thy mind; and thy neighbour as thyself.

²⁸And he said unto him, Thou hast answered right: this do, and thou shalt live.

²⁸And he said vnto him, Thou hast answered right: this do, and thou shalt liue.

³⁹¶ Then certain of the scribes answering said, Master, thou hast well said.

³⁹¶ Then certaine of the Scribes answering, said, Master, Thou hast well said.

¹⁸He saith unto him, Which? Jesus said, Thou shalt do no murder, Thou shalt not commit adultery, Thou shalt not steal, Thou shalt not bear false witness,

¹⁸He saith vnto him, Which? Iesus said, ^*Thou shalt do no murder, Thou shalt not commit adultery, Thou shalt not steale, Thou shalt not beare false witnesse,

¹⁹Whosoever therefore shall break one of these least commandments, and shall teach men so, he shall be called the least in the kingdom of heaven: but whosoever shall do and teach them, the same shall be called great in the kingdom of heaven.

^19*Whosoeuer therfore shall breake one of these least commaundements, and shall teach men so, he shall be called the least in the kingdome of heauen: but whosoeuer shall doe, and teach them, the same shall be called great in the kingdome of heauen.

⁴²But woe unto you, Pharisees! for ye tithe mint and rue and all manner of herbs, and pass over judgment and the love of God: these ought ye to have done, and not to leave the other undone.

⁴²But woe vnto you Pharises: for ye tythe Mint and Rue, and all maner of herbes, and passe ouer iudgement, and the loue of God: these ought yee to haue done, and not to leaue the other vndone.

²³Woe unto you, scribes and Pharisees, hypocrites! for ye pay tithe of mint and anise and cummin, and have omitted the weightier matters of the law, judgment, mercy, and faith: these ought ye to have done, and not to leave the other undone.

²⁷And he answering, said, Thou shalt loue the Lord thy God with all thy heart, and with all thy soule, and with all thy strength, and with all thy minde, and thy neighbour as thy selfe.

²⁰Now a mediator is not a mediator of one, but God is one.

²⁰Now a mediatour is not a Mediatour of one, but God is one.

³⁰Seeing it is one God, which shall justify the circumcision by faith, and uncircumcision through faith.

³⁰Seeing it is one God which shal iustifie the circumcision by faith, and vncircumcision through faith.

⁴As concerning therefore the eating of those things that are offered in sacrifice unto idols, we know that an idol is nothing in the world, and that there is none other God but one.

⁴As concerning therefore the eating of those things that are offered in sacrifice vnto idoles, wee know that an idole is nothing in the world, and that there is none other God but one.

¹⁹Thou believest that there is one God; thou doest well: the devils also believe, and tremble.

¹⁹Thou beleeuest that there is one God, thou doest well: the deuils also beleeue, and tremble.

²⁵To the only wise God our Saviour, be glory and majesty, dominion and power, both now and ever. Amen.

³²And the scribe said unto him, Well, Master, thou hast said the truth: for there is one God; and there is none other but he:

³²And the Scribe said vnto him, Well master, thou hast said the truth: for there is one God, and there is none other but he.

⁶And the Lord thy God will circumcise thine heart, and the heart of thy seed, to love the Lord thy God with all thine heart, and with all thy soul, that thou mayest live.

⁶And the LORD thy God will circumcise thine heart, and the heart of thy seed, to loue the LORD thy God with all thine heart, and with all thy soule, that thou mayest liue.

⁵For there is one God, and one mediator between God and men, the man Christ Jesus;

⁵For there is one God, and one Mediatour betweene God and men, the man Christ Iesus,

³⁷He that loveth father or mother more than me is not worthy of me: and he that loveth son or daughter more than me is not worthy of me.

^37*He that loueth father or mother more then me, is not worthy of me: and he that loueth sonne or daughter more then me, is not worthy of me.

⁵Now the end of the commandment is charity out of a pure heart, and of a good conscience, and of faith unfeigned:

⁵Now the end of the commandement is charity, out of a pure heart, and of a good conscience, and of faith vnfained.

¹²¶ And now, Israel, what doth the Lord thy God require of thee, but to fear the Lord thy God, to walk in all his ways, and to love him, and to serve the Lord thy God with all thy heart and with all thy soul,

¹²¶ And now Israel, what doeth the LORD thy God require of thee, but to feare the LORD thy God, to walke in all his waies, and to loue him, and to serue the LORD thy God, with all thy heart, and with all thy soule,

⁹And call no man your father upon the earth: for one is your Father, which is in heaven.

⁹And call no man your father vpon the earth: ^*for one is your father which is in heauen.

²⁶My son, give me thine heart, and let thine eyes observe my ways.

²⁶My sonne, giue me thine heart, and let thine eyes obserue my wayes.

⁵And thou shalt love the Lord thy God with all thine heart, and with all thy soul, and with all thy might.

⁵And ^*thou shalt loue the LORD thy God with all thine heart, and with all thy soule, and with all thy might.

⁸Owe no man any thing, but to love one another: for he that loveth another hath fulfilled the law.

⁹For this, Thou shalt not commit adultery, Thou shalt not kill, Thou shalt not steal, Thou shalt not bear false witness, Thou shalt not covet; and if there be any other commandment, it is briefly comprehended in this saying, namely, Thou shalt love thy neighbour as thyself.

⁴Charity suffereth long, and is kind; charity envieth not; charity vaunteth not itself, is not puffed up,

⁵Doth not behave itself unseemly, seeketh not her own, is not easily provoked, thinketh no evil;

⁶Rejoiceth not in iniquity, but rejoiceth in the truth;

⁷Beareth all things, believeth all things, hopeth all things, endureth all things.

⁸Charity never faileth: but whether there be prophecies, they shall fail; whether there be tongues, they shall cease; whether there be knowledge, it shall vanish away.

⁴Charitie suffereth long, and is kinde: charitie enuieth not: charitie ^‖vaunteth not it selfe, is not puffed vp,

⁵Doeth not behaue it selfe vnseemly, seeketh not her owne, is not easily prouoked, thinketh no euill,

⁶Reioyceth not in iniquitie, but reioyceth ^‖in the trueth:

⁷Beareth all things, beleeueth all things, hopeth all things, endureth all things.

⁸Charitie neuer faileth: but whether there be prophesies, they shall faile; whether there bee tongues, they shall cease; whether there bee knowledge, it shall vanish away.

¹²Therefore all things whatsoever ye would that men should do to you, do ye even so to them: for this is the law and the prophets.

²¹And this commandment have we from him, That he who loveth God love his brother also.

²¹And this commandement haue we from him, that he who loueth God, loue his brother also.

⁷Beloved, let us love one another: for love is of God; and every one that loveth is born of God, and knoweth God.

⁸He that loveth not knoweth not God; for God is love.

⁷Beloued, let vs loue one another; for loue is of God: and euery one that loueth, is borne of God and knoweth God.

⁸Hee that loueth not, knoweth not God: for God is loue.

⁸If ye fulfil the royal law according to the scripture, Thou shalt love thy neighbour as thyself, ye do well:

⁹But if ye have respect to persons, ye commit sin, and are convinced of the law as transgressors.

¹⁰For whosoever shall keep the whole law, and yet offend in one point, he is guilty of all.

¹¹For he that said, Do not commit adultery, said also, Do not kill. Now if thou commit no adultery, yet if thou kill, thou art become a transgressor of the law.

¹²So speak ye, and so do, as they that shall be judged by the law of liberty.

¹³For he shall have judgment without mercy, that hath shewed no mercy; and mercy rejoiceth against judgment.

⁸If ye fulfil the royall Law, according to the Scripture, Thou shalt loue thy neighbour as thy selfe, ye doe well.

⁹But if ye haue respect to persons, ye commit sinne, and are conuinced of the Law, as transgressours.

¹¹For he ^‖that said, Doe not commit adultery; sayd also, Do not kill. Now if thou commit no adultery, yet if thou kill, thou art become a transgressour of the Law.

¹²So speake ye, and so doe, as they that shall bee iudged by the Law of libertie.

¹³For he shall haue iudgement without mercie, that hath shewed no mercy, & mercie ^‖reioyceth against iudgement.

¹⁸He saith unto him, Which? Jesus said, Thou shalt do no murder, Thou shalt not commit adultery, Thou shalt not steal, Thou shalt not bear false witness,

¹⁹Honour thy father and thy mother: and, Thou shalt love thy neighbour as thyself.

¹⁸He saith vnto him, Which? Iesus said, ^*Thou shalt do no murder, Thou shalt not commit adultery, Thou shalt not steale, Thou shalt not beare false witnesse,

¹⁹Honour thy father and thy mother: and, Thou shalt loue thy neighbour as thy selfe.

³⁶Which now of these three, thinkest thou, was neighbour unto him that fell among the thieves?

³⁷And he said, He that shewed mercy on him. Then said Jesus unto him, Go, and do thou likewise.

³⁶Which now of these three, thinkest thou, was neighbour vnto him that fell among the theeues?

³⁷And he said, He that shewed mercie on him. Then said Iesus vnto him, Goe, and doe thou likewise.

¹⁷But whoso hath this world’s good, and seeth his brother have need, and shutteth up his bowels of compassion from him, how dwelleth the love of God in him?

¹⁹And hereby we know that we are of the truth, and shall assure our hearts before him.

¹⁷But who so hath this worlds good, and seeth his brother hath need, and shutteth vp his bowels of compassion from him; how dwelleth the loue of God in him?

¹⁹And hereby wee know that wee are of the trueth, and shall ^†assure our hearts before him.

¹³¶ Thou shalt not defraud thy neighbour, neither rob him: the wages of him that is hired shall not abide with thee all night until the morning.

¹³¶ ^*Thou shalt not defraud thy neighbour, neither rob him: the wages of him that is hired, shal not abide with thee all night, vntill the morning.

⁶That they may knowe from the rising of the Sun, and from the West, that there is none besides me, I am the LORD, and there is none else.

⁷Thou shalt have none other gods before me.

⁷Thou shalt haue none other gods before me.

⁸Fear ye not, neither be afraid: have not I told thee from that time, and have declared it? ye are even my witnesses. Is there a God beside me? yea, there is no God; I know not any.

^8*†Feare yee not, neither be afraid: haue not I told thee from that time, and haue declared it? yee are euen my witnesses. Is there a God besides me? yea there is no God, I know not any.

¹¹Thus shall ye say unto them, The gods that have not made the heavens and the earth, even they shall perish from the earth, and from under these heavens.

⁶For I desired mercy, and not sacrifice; and the knowledge of God more than burnt offerings.

^6*For I desired mercie, and not sacrifice; and the knowledge of God more then burnt offerings.

⁶¶ Wherewith shall I come before the Lord, and bow myself before the high God? shall I come before him with burnt offerings, with calves of a year old?

⁷Will the Lord be pleased with thousands of rams, or with ten thousands of rivers of oil? shall I give my firstborn for my transgression, the fruit of my body for the sin of my soul?

⁸He hath shewed thee, O man, what is good; and what doth the Lord require of thee, but to do justly, and to love mercy, and to walk humbly with thy God?

⁶¶ ^†Wherewith shall I come before the LORD, and bow my selfe before the high God? shall I come before him with burnt offerings, with calues of a yeere olde?

¹THOUGH I speak with the tongues of men and of angels, and have not charity, I am become as sounding brass, or a tinkling cymbal.

²And though I have the gift of prophecy, and understand all mysteries, and all knowledge; and though I have all faith, so that I could remove mountains, and have not charity, I am nothing.

³And though I bestow all my goods to feed the poor, and though I give my body to be burned, and have not charity, it profiteth me nothing.

¹¶ Though I speake with the tongues of men & of Angels, and haue not charity, I am become as sounding brasse or a tinkling cymbal.

³And though I bestowe all my goods to feede the poore, and though I giue my body to bee burned, and haue not charitie, it profiteth me nothing.

²¹¶ I hate, I despise your feast days, and I will not smell in your solemn assemblies.

²²Though ye offer me burnt offerings and your meat offerings, I will not accept them: neither will I regard the peace offerings of your fat beasts.

²³Take thou away from me the noise of thy songs; for I will not hear the melody of thy viols.

²⁴But let judgment run down as waters, and righteousness as a mighty stream.

²¹¶ ^*I hate, I despise your feast dayes, and I will not ^‖smell in your solemne assemblies.

²¹¶ Thus saith the Lord of hosts, the God of Israel; Put your burnt offerings unto your sacrifices, and eat flesh.

¹¹To what purpose is the multitude of your sacrifices unto me? saith the Lord: I am full of the burnt offerings of rams, and the fat of fed beasts; and I delight not in the blood of bullocks, or of lambs, or of he goats.

¹²When ye come to appear before me, who hath required this at your hand, to tread my courts?

¹³Bring no more vain oblations; incense is an abomination unto me; the new moons and sabbaths, the calling of assemblies, I cannot away with; it is iniquity, even the solemn meeting.

¹⁴Your new moons and your appointed feasts my soul hateth: they are a trouble unto me; I am weary to bear them.

¹⁵And when ye spread forth your hands, I will hide mine eyes from you: yea, when ye make many prayers, I will not hear: your hands are full of blood.

¹⁶¶ Wash you, make you clean; put away the evil of your doings from before mine eyes; cease to do evil;

¹⁷Learn to do well; seek judgment, relieve the oppressed, judge the fatherless, plead for the widow.

¹¹To what purpose is the multitude of your ^*sacrifices vnto me, sayth the LORD? I am full of the burnt offerings of rammes, and the fat of fedde beasts, and I delight not in the blood of bullockes, or of lambes, or of ^†hee goates.

¹⁵And when ye spread foorth your ^*handes, I will hide mine eyes from you; yea, when yee ^†make many prayers I will not heare: your hands are full of ^*†blood.

¹⁶¶ Wash yee, make you cleane, put away the euill of your doings from before mine eyes, ^*cease to doe euill,

¹⁷Learne to doe well, seeke iudgement, ^‖relieue the oppressed, iudge the fatherlesse, plead for the widow.

³To do justice and judgment is more acceptable to the Lord than sacrifice.

^3*To doe iustice and iudgement, is more acceptable to the LORD, then sacrifice.

²³Whoso offereth praise glorifieth me: and to him that ordereth his conversation aright will I shew the salvation of God.

^23†Who so offereth praise, glorifieth me: and to him that ordereth his conuersation aright, will I shew the saluation of God.

⁸Above when he said, Sacrifice and offering and burnt offerings and offering for sin thou wouldest not, neither hadst pleasure therein; which are offered by the law;

⁸Aboue when hee said, Sacrifice, and offering, and burnt offerings, and offering for sinne thou wouldest not, neither hadst pleasure therein, which are offered by the Law:

⁵Is it such a fast that I have chosen? a day for a man to afflict his soul? is it to bow down his head as a bulrush, and to spread sackcloth and ashes under him? wilt thou call this a fast, and an acceptable day to the Lord?

⁷Is it not to deal thy bread to the hungry, and that thou bring the poor that are cast out to thy house? when thou seest the naked, that thou cover him; and that thou hide not thyself from thine own flesh?

^5**‖Is it such a fast that I haue chosen? a day for a man to afflict his soule? Is it to bow down his head as a bulrush, and to spread sackecloth and ashes vnder him? wilt thou call this a fast, and an acceptable day to the LORD?
