1Pe 1:22 And forasmuch as ye have purified your souls thorow the spirit, in obeying the truth <trueth> for to love brotherly without feigning, see that ye love one another with a pure heart fervently:
1Pe 1:23 for ye are born a new, not of mortal <|corruptible|> seed, but of immortal <|uncorruptible|> seed, by the word of God which liveth, and lasteth for ever, <|by the living word of God, which endureth for ever|> 1Pe 1:24 because that <For> all flesh is as grass, and all the glory of man is as the flower of grass, the grass is withered, <|withereth|> and the flower is faded <falleth> away, 1Pe 1:25 but the word of the Lord endureth ever. And this is the word which by the gospel <gospell> was preached among you. 1Peter 1:22-25 |
2 Peter 1:21 |
For the scripture came never by the will of man: but wholy men of God spake as they were moved by the wholy ghost. |

"for the word of God is quick, and mighty in operation, and sharper than any two edged sword: and entereth through, even unto the dividing a sunder of the soul and the spirit and of the joints, and the mary: and judgeth the thoughts and the intents of the heart." Hebrews 4:12 |

I have here translated (brethren and sisters most dear and tenderly beloved in Christ) the new Testament for your spiritual edifying, consolation and solace: Exhorting instantly and beseeching those that are better seen in the tongues than I, and that have higher gifts of grace to interpret the sense of the Scripture, and meaning of the Spirit, than I, to consider and ponder my labor, and that with the spirit of meekness. And if they perceive in any places that I have not attained the very sense of the tongue, or meaning of the Scripture, or have not given the right English word, that they put to their hands to amend it, remembering that so is their duty to do. For we have not received the gifts of God for ourselves only, or for to hide them; but for to bestow them unto the honoring of God and Christ, and edifying of the congregation, which is the body of Christ. |

If any man find faults either with the translation or ought beside (which is easier for many to do, than so well to have translated it themselves of their own pregnant wits, at the beginning without fore-ensample) to the same it shall be lawful to translate it themselves and to put what they lust {wish} thereto. If I shall perceive either by myself or by the information of other, that ought be escaped me, or might be more plainly translated, I will shortly after, cause it to be mended. Howbeit in many places, me thinketh it better to put a declaration in the margin, than to run too far from the text and in many places, where the text seemeth at the first chop hard to be understood, yet the circumstances before and after, and often reading together, maketh it plain enough etc. |

Under what manner therefore should I now submit this book to be corrected and amended of them which can suffer nothing to be well? Or what protestation should I make in such a matter unto our prelates those stubborn Nimrods which so mightily fight against God, and resist his holy spirit, enforcing with all craft and subtlety to quench the light of the everlasting testament, promises, and appointment made between God and us: and heaping the fierce wrath of God upon all princes and rulers, mocking them with false feigned names of hypocrisy, and serving their lusts at all points, and dispensing with them even of the very laws of God, of which Christ himself testifieth, Matt. v.{5} that not so much as one tittle thereof may perish, or be broken. And of which the prophet saith, Psalm cxviij.{118} Thou hast commanded thy laws to be kept meod, that is in Hebrew exceedingly, with all diligence, might and power and have made them so mad with their juggling charms and crafty persuasions that they think it a full satisfaction for all their wicked lying, to torment such as tell them truth, and to burn the word of their souls' health, and slay whosoever believe thereon.
Notwitstonding yet I submit this book and all other that I have either made or translated, or shall in time to come, (if it be God's will that I shall further labour in his harvest) unto all them that submit themselves unto the word of God, to be corrected of them, yea and moreover to be disallowed and also burnt, if it seem worthy when they have examined it with the Hebrew, so that they first put forth of their own translating another that is more correct. |

"Yea and all that will live godly in Christ Jesu, must suffer persecutions.
But the evil men and deceivers, shall wax worse and worse, while they deceive, and are deceived themselves. But continue thou in the things which thou hast learned, which also were committed unto thee seeing thou knowest of whom thou hast learned them. And forasmuch also as thou hast known holy scripture of a child, which is able to make thee wise unto health {salvation} thorow {the} faith, which is in Christ Jesu. For all scripture given by inspiration of God, is profitable to teach, to improve, to inform, {amend} and to instruct in righteousness, that the man of God may be perfect, and prepared unto all good works. 2 Timothy 3:12-17 |

"These are the words, which I spake unto you, while I was yet with you: that all must be fulfilled which were written of me in the law of Moses, and in the Prophets, and in the Psalms. Then opened he their wits, that they might understand the scriptures, and said unto them: Thus is it written, and thus it behooved Christ to suffer, and to rise again from death the third day. And that repentance, and remission of sins, should be preached in his name among all nations." Luke 24:45 |

But that comforter which is the holy ghost (whom my father will send in my name) shall teach you all things, and bring all things to your remembrance whatsoever I have told you. |

15And as I began to preach, the holy ghost fell on them, as he did on us at the beginning. 16Then came to my remembrance the words of the Lord, how he said: John baptised with water, but ye shall be baptised with the holy ghost. |
1 John 2:27 |
And the anointing which ye have received of him dwelleth in you. And ye need not that any man teach you: but as that anointing teacheth you all things, and is true, and is no lie: and as it taught you, even so bide therein. |
