Matthew 25:11–14

²¹¶ Not every one that saith unto me, Lord, Lord, shall enter into the kingdom of heaven; but he that doeth the will of my Father which is in heaven.

²²Many will say to me in that day, Lord, Lord, have we not prophesied in thy name? and in thy name have cast out devils? and in thy name done many wonderful works?

²³And then will I profess unto them, I never knew you: depart from me, ye that work iniquity.

²¹¶ Not euery one that saith vnto me, ^*Lord, Lord, shall enter into the kingdome of heauen: but he that doth the will of my father which is in heauen.

²²Many will say to me in that day, Lord, Lord, haue we not prophecied in thy name? and in thy name haue cast out deuils? and in thy name done many wonderfull works?

²³And then wil I professe vnto them, ^*I neuer knew you: ^*Depart from me, ye that worke iniquity.

¹⁶Lest there be any fornicator, or profane person, as Esau, who for one morsel of meat sold his birthright.

¹⁷For ye know how that afterward, when he would have inherited the blessing, he was rejected: for he found no place of repentance, though he sought it carefully with tears.

¹⁶Lest there bee any fornicatour, or profane person, as Esau, who for one morsell of meat sold his birthright.

¹⁷For yee know how that afterward when hee would haue inherited the blessing, hee was reiected: for hee found no ^‖place of repentance, though he sought it carefully with teares.

³But if any man love God, the same is known of him.

³But if any man loue God, the same is knowen of him.

¹⁹Nevertheless the foundation of God standeth sure, having this seal, The Lord knoweth them that are his. And, Let every one that nameth the name of Christ depart from iniquity.

¹⁹Neuerthelesse the foundation of God standeth ^‖sure, hauing the seale, the Lord knoweth them that are his. And, let euery one that nameth the Name of Christ, depart from iniquitie.

²⁷My sheep hear my voice, and I know them, and they follow me:

²⁷My sheepe heare my voyce, and I know them, and they follow me.

²⁶Then shall ye begin to say, We have eaten and drunk in thy presence, and thou hast taught in our streets.

²⁷But he shall say, I tell you, I know you not whence ye are; depart from me, all ye workers of iniquity.

²⁸There shall be weeping and gnashing of teeth, when ye shall see Abraham, and Isaac, and Jacob, and all the prophets, in the kingdom of God, and you yourselves thrust out.

²⁹And they shall come from the east, and from the west, and from the north, and from the south, and shall sit down in the kingdom of God.

³⁰And, behold, there are last which shall be first, and there are first which shall be last.

²⁶Then shall ye begin to say, Wee haue eaten and drunke in thy presence, and thou hast taught in our streets.

^27*But he shall say, I tell you, I know you not whence you are; depart from me all ye workers of iniquitie.

²⁸There shall be weeping and gnashing of teeth, when yee shall see Abraham, and Isaac, and Iacob, and all the Prophets in the kingdome of God, and you your selues thrust out.

²⁹And they shall come from the East, and from the West, and from the North, and from the South, and shall sit downe in the kingdome of God.

^30*And behold, there are last, which shall be first; and there are first, which shall be last.

³¹Now we know that God heareth not sinners: but if any man be a worshipper of God, and doeth his will, him he heareth.

³¹Now we know that God heareth not sinners: but if any man bee a worshipper of God, and doth his will, him he heareth.

⁶For the Lord knoweth the way of the righteous: but the way of the ungodly shall perish.

⁶For the LORD knoweth the way of the righteous: but the way of the vngodly shall perish.

⁵The foolish shall not stand in thy sight: thou hatest all workers of iniquity.

⁵The foolish shall not stand ^†in thy sight: thou hatest al workers of iniquity

⁹But now, after that ye have known God, or rather are known of God, how turn ye again to the weak and beggarly elements, whereunto ye desire again to be in bondage?

⁹But now after that yee haue knowen God, or rather are knowen of God, how turne ye ^‖againe to the weak and beggerly ^‖Elements, whereunto ye desire againe to be in bondage?

¹³Thou art of purer eyes than to behold evil, and canst not look on iniquity: wherefore lookest thou upon them that deal treacherously, and holdest thy tongue when the wicked devoureth the man that is more righteous than he?

¹³ Thou art of purer eyes then to beholde euill, and canst not looke on ^‖ininquitie: wherefore lookest thou vpon them that deale treacherously, and holdest thy tongue when the wicked deuoureth the man that is more righteous then hee?

⁴²¶ Watch therefore: for ye know not what hour your Lord doth come.

⁴³But know this, that if the goodman of the house had known in what watch the thief would come, he would have watched, and would not have suffered his house to be broken up.

⁴⁴Therefore be ye also ready: for in such an hour as ye think not the Son of man cometh.

⁴²¶ ^*Watch therfore, for ye know not what houre your Lord doth come.

^43*But know this, that if the good man of the house had knowen in what watch the thiefe would come, he would haue watched, and would not haue suffered his house to be broken vp.

⁴⁴Therefore be yee also ready: for in such an houre as you thinke not, the sonne of man commeth.

¹⁵Behold, I come as a thief. Blessed is he that watcheth, and keepeth his garments, lest he walk naked, and they see his shame.

^15*Behold, I come as a thiefe. Blessed is he that watcheth, and keepeth his garments, least hee walke naked, and they see his shame.

⁶Therefore let us not sleep, as do others; but let us watch and be sober.

⁶Therefore let vs not sleepe, as doe others: but let vs watch and be sober.

³⁶Watch ye therefore, and pray always, that ye may be accounted worthy to escape all these things that shall come to pass, and to stand before the Son of man.

³⁶Watch ye therefore, and pray alwayes, that ye may be accompted worthy to escape all these things that shall come to passe, and to stand before the sonne of man.

¹³Watch ye, stand fast in the faith, quit you like men, be strong.

¹³Watch yee, stand fast in the faith, quit you like men: be strong.

⁸Be sober, be vigilant; because your adversary the devil, as a roaring lion, walketh about, seeking whom he may devour:

⁸Be sober, be vigilant: because your aduersary the deuill, as a roaring Lion walketh about, seeking whom he may deuoure.

³³Take ye heed, watch and pray: for ye know not when the time is.

³⁴For the Son of man is as a man taking a far journey, who left his house, and gave authority to his servants, and to every man his work, and commanded the porter to watch.

³⁵Watch ye therefore: for ye know not when the master of the house cometh, at even, or at midnight, or at the cockcrowing, or in the morning:

³⁶Lest coming suddenly he find you sleeping.

³⁷And what I say unto you I say unto all, Watch.

^33*Take ye heed, watch and pray: for ye know not when the time is.

³⁴For the Sonne of man is as a man taking a farre iourney, who left his house, and gaue authority to his seruants, and to euery man his worke, and commanded the porter to watch:

³⁵Watch ye therefore (for ye knowe not when the master of the house commeth, at Euen, or at midnight, or at the cocke crowing, or in the morning.)

³⁶Lest comming suddenly, he finde you sleeping.

³⁷And what I say vnto you, I say vnto all, Watch.

⁵⁰The lord of that servant shall come in a day when he looketh not for him, and in an hour that he is not aware of,

⁵⁰The Lord of that seruant shall come in a day when hee looketh not for him, and in an houre that hee is not ware of:

⁵But watch thou in all things, endure afflictions, do the work of an evangelist, make full proof of thy ministry.

⁵But watch thou in all things, indure afflictions, doe the worke of an Euangelist, ^‖make full proofe of thy ministery.

⁷But the end of all things is at hand: be ye therefore sober, and watch unto prayer.

⁷But the ende of all things is at hand: be ye therefore sober and watch vnto prayer.

³¹Therefore watch, and remember, that by the space of three years I ceased not to warn every one night and day with tears.

³¹Therefore watch, and remember that by the space of three yeeres, I ceased not to warne euery one night and day with teares.

³⁴For the Son of man is as a man taking a far journey, who left his house, and gave authority to his servants, and to every man his work, and commanded the porter to watch.

³⁴For the Sonne of man is as a man taking a farre iourney, who left his house, and gaue authority to his seruants, and to euery man his worke, and commanded the porter to watch:

⁹Use hospitality one to another without grudging.

¹⁰As every man hath received the gift, even so minister the same one to another, as good stewards of the manifold grace of God.

¹¹If any man speak, let him speak as the oracles of God; if any man minister, let him do it as of the ability which God giveth: that God in all things may be glorified through Jesus Christ, to whom be praise and dominion for ever and ever. Amen.

⁹Use hospitalitie one to another without grudging.

¹⁰As euery man hath receiued the gift, euen so minister the same one to another, as good stewards of the manifold grace of God.

¹¹If any man speake, let him speake as the oracles of God: if any man minister, let him doe it as of the ability which God giueth, that God in all things may bee glorified through Iesus Christ, to whom be praise and dominion for euer and euer. Amen.

¹²He said therefore, A certain nobleman went into a far country to receive for himself a kingdom, and to return.

¹³And he called his ten servants, and delivered them ten pounds, and said unto them, Occupy till I come.

¹⁴But his citizens hated him, and sent a message after him, saying, We will not have this man to reign over us.

¹⁵And it came to pass, that when he was returned, having received the kingdom, then he commanded these servants to be called unto him, to whom he had given the money, that he might know how much every man had gained by trading.

¹⁶Then came the first, saying, Lord, thy pound hath gained ten pounds.

¹⁷And he said unto him, Well, thou good servant: because thou hast been faithful in a very little, have thou authority over ten cities.

¹⁸And the second came, saying, Lord, thy pound hath gained five pounds.

¹⁹And he said likewise to him, Be thou also over five cities.

²⁰And another came, saying, Lord, behold, here is thy pound, which I have kept laid up in a napkin:

²¹For I feared thee, because thou art an austere man: thou takest up that thou layedst not down, and reapest that thou didst not sow.

²²And he saith unto him, Out of thine own mouth will I judge thee, thou wicked servant. Thou knewest that I was an austere man, taking up that I laid not down, and reaping that I did not sow:

²³Wherefore then gavest not thou my money into the bank, that at my coming I might have required mine own with usury?

²⁴And he said unto them that stood by, Take from him the pound, and give it to him that hath ten pounds.

²⁵(And they said unto him, Lord, he hath ten pounds.)

²⁶For I say unto you, That unto every one which hath shall be given; and from him that hath not, even that he hath shall be taken away from him.

²⁷But those mine enemies, which would not that I should reign over them, bring hither, and slay them before me.

^12*He said therefore, A certaine noble man went into a farre countrey, to receiue for himselfe a kingdome, and to returne.

¹³And hee called his ten seruants, and deliuered them ten ^†pounds, and said vnto them, Occupy till I come.

¹⁴But his citizens hated him, and sent a message after him, saying, We wil not haue this man to reigne ouer vs.

¹⁵And it came to passe, that when he was returned, hauing receiued the kingdome, then hee commaunded these seruants to be called vnto him, to whom he had giuen the money, that hee might know how much euery man had gained by trading.

¹⁶Then came the first, saying, Lord, thy pound hath gained ten pounds.

¹⁷And he said vnto him, Well, thou good seruant: because thou hast bene faithfull in a very little, haue thou authoritie ouer ten cities.

¹⁸And the second came, saying, Lord, thy pound hath gained fiue pounds.

¹⁹And hee said likewise to him, Bee thou also ouer fiue cities.

²⁰And another came, saying, Lord, behold, here is thy pound which I haue kept layd vp in a napkin:

²¹For I feared thee, because thou art an austere man: thou takest vp that thou layedst not downe, and reapest that thou didst not sow.

²²And hee saith vnto him, Out of thine owne mouth will I iudge thee, thou wicked seruant: Thou knewest that I was an austere man, taking vp that I layde not downe, and reaping that I did not sow.

²³Wherefore then gauest not thou my money into the bancke, that at my comming I might haue required mine owne with vsury?

²⁴And he said vnto them that stood by, Take from him the pound, and giue it to him that hath ten pounds.

²⁵And they said vnto him, Lord, he hath ten pounds.

²⁶For I say vnto you, ^*That vnto euery one which hath, shalbe giuen, and from him that hath not, euen that hee hath shalbe taken away from him.

²⁷But those mine enemies which would not that I should reigne ouer them, bring hither, and slay them before mee.

⁶Having then gifts differing according to the grace that is given to us, whether prophecy, let us prophesy according to the proportion of faith;

⁷Or ministry, let us wait on our ministering: or he that teacheth, on teaching;

⁸Or he that exhorteth, on exhortation: he that giveth, let him do it with simplicity; he that ruleth, with diligence; he that sheweth mercy, with cheerfulness.

⁶Hauing then gifts, differing according to the grace that is giuen to vs, whether prophecie, let vs prophecie according to the proportion of faith.

⁷Or ministery, let vs wait, on our ministring: or hee that teacheth, on teaching:

⁸Or he that exhorteth, on exhortation: he that ^‖giueth, let him doe it ^‖with simplicitie: hee that ruleth, with diligence: hee that sheweth mercy, with cheerefulnesse.

¹LET a man so account of us, as of the ministers of Christ, and stewards of the mysteries of God.

²Moreover it is required in stewards, that a man be found faithful.

¹¶ Let a man so account of vs, as of the ministers of Christ, and stewards of the mysteries of God.

²Moreouer, it is required in stewards, that a man be found faithfull.

¹⁴¶ For the kingdom of heaven is as a man travelling into a far country, who called his own servants, and delivered unto them his goods.

¹⁵And unto one he gave five talents, to another two, and to another one; to every man according to his several ability; and straightway took his journey.

¹⁶Then he that had received the five talents went and traded with the same, and made them other five talents.

¹⁷And likewise he that had received two, he also gained other two.

¹⁸But he that had received one went and digged in the earth, and hid his lord’s money.

¹⁹After a long time the lord of those servants cometh, and reckoneth with them.

²⁰And so he that had received five talents came and brought other five talents, saying, Lord, thou deliveredst unto me five talents: behold, I have gained beside them five talents more.

²¹His lord said unto him, Well done, thou good and faithful servant: thou hast been faithful over a few things, I will make thee ruler over many things: enter thou into the joy of thy lord.

²²He also that had received two talents came and said, Lord, thou deliveredst unto me two talents: behold, I have gained two other talents beside them.

²³His lord said unto him, Well done, good and faithful servant; thou hast been faithful over a few things, I will make thee ruler over many things: enter thou into the joy of thy lord.

²⁴Then he which had received the one talent came and said, Lord, I knew thee that thou art an hard man, reaping where thou hast not sown, and gathering where thou hast not strawed:

²⁵And I was afraid, and went and hid thy talent in the earth: lo, there thou hast that is thine.

²⁶His lord answered and said unto him, Thou wicked and slothful servant, thou knewest that I reap where I sowed not, and gather where I have not strawed:

²⁷Thou oughtest therefore to have put my money to the exchangers, and then at my coming I should have received mine own with usury.

²⁸Take therefore the talent from him, and give it unto him which hath ten talents.

²⁹For unto every one that hath shall be given, and he shall have abundance: but from him that hath not shall be taken away even that which he hath.

³⁰And cast ye the unprofitable servant into outer darkness: there shall be weeping and gnashing of teeth.

¹⁴¶ ^*For the kingdome of heauen is as a man trauailing into a farre countrey, who called his owne seruants, and deliuered vnto them his goods:

¹⁵And vnto one he gaue fiue ^†talents, to another two, and to another one, to euery man according to his seuerall ability, & straightway tooke his iourney.

¹⁶Then hee that had receiued the fiue talents, went and traded with the same, and made them other fiue talents.

¹⁷And likewise he that had receiued two, he also gained other two.

¹⁸But hee that had receiued one, went and digged in the earth, and hid his lordes money.

¹⁹After a long time, the lord of those seruants commeth, and reckoneth with them.

²⁰And so hee that had receiued fiue talents, came and brought other fiue talents, saying, Lord, thou deliueredst vnto me fiue talents, behold, I haue gained besides them, fiue talents moe.

²¹His lord said vnto him, Well done, thou good and faithfull seruant, thou hast been faithfull ouer a few things, I wil make thee ruler ouer many things: enter thou into the ioy of thy lord.

²²He also that had receiued two talents, came and said, Lord, thou deliueredst vnto me two talents: behold, I haue gained two other talents besides them.

²³His lord said vnto him, Well done, good and faithfull seruant, thou hast beene faithfull ouer a few things, I wil make thee ruler ouer many things: enter thou into the ioy of thy lord.

²⁴Then he which had receiued the one talent, came & said, Lord, I knew thee that thou art an hard man, reaping where thou hast not sowen, & gathering where thou hast not strawed:

²⁵And I was afraid, and went and hidde thy talent in the earth: loe, there thou hast that is thine.

²⁶His lord answered, and said vnto him, Thou wicked and slouthfull seruant, thou knewest that I reape where I sowed not, and gather where I haue not strawed:

²⁷Thou oughtest therefore to haue put my money to the exchangers, and then at my comming I should haue receiued mine owne with vsurie.

²⁸Take therefore the talent from him, and giue it vnto him which hath ten talents.

^29*For vnto euery one that hath shall be giuen, and he shall haue abundance: but from him that hath not, shal be taken away, euen that which he hath.

³⁰And cast yee the vnprofitable seruant into outer darkenesse, there shall be weeping and gnashing of teeth.

⁴Now there are diversities of gifts, but the same Spirit.

⁴Nowe there are diuersities of gifts, but the same spirit.

¹¹And he gave some, apostles; and some, prophets; and some, evangelists; and some, pastors and teachers;

^11*And he gaue some, Apostles: and some, Prophets: and some, Euangelists: and some, Pastors, and teachers:

⁷But the manifestation of the Spirit is given to every man to profit withal.

⁸For to one is given by the Spirit the word of wisdom; to another the word of knowledge by the same Spirit;

⁹To another faith by the same Spirit; to another the gifts of healing by the same Spirit;

¹⁰To another the working of miracles; to another prophecy; to another discerning of spirits; to another divers kinds of tongues; to another the interpretation of tongues:

¹¹But all these worketh that one and the selfsame Spirit, dividing to every man severally as he will.

¹²For as the body is one, and hath many members, and all the members of that one body, being many, are one body: so also is Christ.

¹³For by one Spirit are we all baptized into one body, whether we be Jews or Gentiles, whether we be bond or free; and have been all made to drink into one Spirit.

¹⁴For the body is not one member, but many.

¹⁵If the foot shall say, Because I am not the hand, I am not of the body; is it therefore not of the body?

¹⁶And if the ear shall say, Because I am not the eye, I am not of the body; is it therefore not of the body?

¹⁷If the whole body were an eye, where were the hearing? If the whole were hearing, where were the smelling?

¹⁸But now hath God set the members every one of them in the body, as it hath pleased him.

¹⁹And if they were all one member, where were the body?

²⁰But now are they many members, yet but one body.

²¹And the eye cannot say unto the hand, I have no need of thee: nor again the head to the feet, I have no need of you.

²²Nay, much more those members of the body, which seem to be more feeble, are necessary:

²³And those members of the body, which we think to be less honourable, upon these we bestow more abundant honour; and our uncomely parts have more abundant comeliness.

²⁴For our comely parts have no need: but God hath tempered the body together, having given more abundant honour to that part which lacked:

²⁵That there should be no schism in the body; but that the members should have the same care one for another.

²⁶And whether one member suffer, all the members suffer with it; or one member be honoured, all the members rejoice with it.

²⁷Now ye are the body of Christ, and members in particular.

²⁸And God hath set some in the church, first apostles, secondarily prophets, thirdly teachers, after that miracles, then gifts of healings, helps, governments, diversities of tongues.

²⁹Are all apostles? are all prophets? are all teachers? are all workers of miracles?

⁷But the manifestation of the spirit, is giuen to euery man to profit withall.

⁸For to one is giuen by the spirit, the word of wisedome, to another the word of knowledge, by the same spirit.

⁹To another faith, by the same spirit: to another the gifts of healing, by the same spirit:

¹⁰To another the working of miracles, to another prophecie, to another discerning of spirits, to another diuers kindes of tongues, to another the interpretation of tongues.

¹¹But all these worketh that one and the selfe same spirit, diuiding to euery man seuerally as he will.

¹²For as the body is one, and hath many members, and all the membrs of that one body, being many, are one bodie: so also is Christ.

¹³For by one spirit are we all baptized into one bodie, whether wee bee Iewes or ^†Gentiles, whether wee bee bond or free: and haue beene all made to drinke into one spirit.

¹⁴For the body is not one member, but many.

¹⁵If the foot shall say, Because I am not the hand, I am not of the body: is it therefore not of the body?

¹⁶And if the eare shall say, Because I am not the eye, I am not of the body: is it therefore not of the body?

¹⁷If the whole body were an eye, where were the hearing? If the whole were hearing, where were the smelling?

¹⁸But now hath God set the members, euery one of them in the body, as it hath pleased him.

¹⁹And if they were all one member, where were the body?

²⁰But now are they many members, yet but one body.

²¹And the eye cannot say vnto the hand, I haue no need of thee: nor againe, the head to the feete, I haue no neede of you.

²²Nay, much more those members of the bodie, which seeme to bee more feeble, are necessary.

²³And those members of the bodie, which wee thinke to bee lesse honourable, vpon these we ^‖bestow more abundant honour, and our vncomely parts haue more abundant comelinesse.

²⁴For our comely parts haue no need: but God hath tempered the bodie together, hauing giuen more abundant honour to that part which lacked:

²⁵That there should be no ^‖schisme in the body: but that the members should haue the same care one for another.

²⁶And whether one member suffer, all the members suffer with it: or one member be honoured, all the members reioyce with it.

²⁷Now yee are the body of Christ, and members in particular.

²⁸And God hath set some in the Church, first Apostles, secondarily Prophets, thirdly Teachers, after that miracles, then gifts of healings, helpes in gouernmēts, ^‖diuersities of tongues.

²⁹ Are all Apostles? are all Prophets? are all Teachers? are all ^‖workers of miracles?

¹AND he said also unto his disciples, There was a certain rich man, which had a steward; and the same was accused unto him that he had wasted his goods.

²And he called him, and said unto him, How is it that I hear this of thee? give an account of thy stewardship; for thou mayest be no longer steward.

³Then the steward said within himself, What shall I do? for my lord taketh away from me the stewardship: I cannot dig; to beg I am ashamed.

⁴I am resolved what to do, that, when I am put out of the stewardship, they may receive me into their houses.

⁵So he called every one of his lord’s debtors unto him, and said unto the first, How much owest thou unto my lord?

⁶And he said, An hundred measures of oil. And he said unto him, Take thy bill, and sit down quickly, and write fifty.

⁷Then said he to another, And how much owest thou? And he said, An hundred measures of wheat. And he said unto him, Take thy bill, and write fourscore.

⁸And the lord commended the unjust steward, because he had done wisely: for the children of this world are in their generation wiser than the children of light.

⁹And I say unto you, Make to yourselves friends of the mammon of unrighteousness; that, when ye fail, they may receive you into everlasting habitations.

¹⁰He that is faithful in that which is least is faithful also in much: and he that is unjust in the least is unjust also in much.

¹¹If therefore ye have not been faithful in the unrighteous mammon, who will commit to your trust the true riches?

¹²And if ye have not been faithful in that which is another man’s, who shall give you that which is your own?

¹¶ And hee said also vnto his disciples, There was a certaine rich man which had a Steward, and the same was accused vnto him that he had wasted his goods.

²And hee called him, and said vnto him, How is it that I heare this of thee? Giue an accompt of thy stewardship: for thou mayest bee no longer Steward.

³Then the Steward said within himselfe, What shall I doe, for my lord taketh away from mee the Stewardship? I cannot digge, to begge I am ashamed.

⁴I am resolued what to doe, that when I am put out of the stewardship, they may receiue me into their houses.

⁵So hee called euery one of his lords detters vnto him, and said vnto the first, How much owest thou vnto my lord?

⁶And hee said, An hundred ^†measures of oyle. And hee saide vnto him, Take thy bill, and sit downe quickly, and write fiftie.

⁷Then said hee to another, And how much owest thou? And hee said, An hundred ^†measures of wheat. And hee saide vnto him, Take thy bill and write fourescore.

⁸And the lord commended the vniust Steward, because he had done wisely: for the children of this world are in their generation wiser then the children of light.

⁹And I say vnto you, Make to your selues friends of the ^‖Mammon of vnrighteousnesse, that when ye faile, they may receiue you into euerlasting habitations.

¹⁰Hee that is faithfull in that which is least, is faithfull also in much: and he that is vniust in the least, is vniust also in much.

¹¹If therefore yee haue not bene faithfull in the vnrighteous ^‖Mammon, who will commit to your trust the true riches?

¹²And if ye haue not bene faithful in that which is another mans, who shall giue you that which is your owne?

³³¶ Hear another parable: There was a certain householder, which planted a vineyard, and hedged it round about, and digged a winepress in it, and built a tower, and let it out to husbandmen, and went into a far country:

³³¶ Heare another parable. There was a certaine house-holder, ^*which planted a Uineyard, and hedged it round about, and digged a wine-presse in it, and built a tower, and let it out to husbandmen, and went into a farre countrey.

⁵Who then is Paul, and who is Apollos, but ministers by whom ye believed, even as the Lord gave to every man?

⁵Who then is Paul? and who is Apollo? but ministers by whom ye beleeued, euen as the Lord gaue to euery man.

⁹Then began he to speak to the people this parable; A certain man planted a vineyard, and let it forth to husbandmen, and went into a far country for a long time.

⁹Then began hee to speake to the people this parable: ^*A certaine man planted a vineyard, and let it foorth to husbandmen, and went into a farre countrey for a long time.
