1And he rose vp, and came from thence in to the places of Iewry beyonde Iordan. And the people wete agayne vnto him by heapes, and as his maner was he taught them agayne.

2And the Pharises came vnto him, and axed him, yf it were laufull for a man to put awaye his wife, and tempted him withall. 3But he answered and sayde: What hath Moses comaunded you? 4They sayde: Moses suffred to wryte a testimoniall of deuorcemet, and to put her awaye. 5Iesus answered, and sayde vnto them: Because of ye hardnesse of yor hert dyd Moses wryte you this commaundement. 6But from the first creacion God made the man and woman. 7For this cause shal a man leaue his father & mother, and cleue vnto his wife, 8and they two shalbe one flesh. Now are they not twayne the, but one flesh. 9Let not man therfore put asunder that, which God hath coupled together.

10And at home his disciples axed him agayne of ye same. 11And he sayde vnto the: Who so euer putteth awaye his wife, & marieth another, breaketh wedlocke to her warde. 12And yf a woma forsake hir hussbande, & be maried to another, she comitteth aduoutrie.

The Rich Young Man
(Matthew 19:16–30; Luke 18:18–30)

17And whan he was gone forth vpon the waye, there came one runninge, and kneled vnto him, & axed him: Good Master, what shal I do, that I maye inheret euerlastinge life? 18But Iesus saide vnto him: Why callest thou me good? There is no man good, but God onely, 19Thou knowest the commaundementes: Thou shalt not breake wedlocke: thou shalt not kyll: thou shalt not steale: thou shalt beare no false wytnesse: thou shalt begyle no man: Honoure thy father and mother. 20But he answered, and sayde vnto him: Master, all these haue I kepte fro my youth vp. 21And Iesus behelde him, and loued him, & sayde vnto him: Thou wantest one thinge: Go thy waye, and sell all that thou hast, and geue it vnto ye poore: so shalt thou haue a treasure in heauen, and come & folowe me, and take the crosse vpon ye. 22And he was disconforted at the sayenge, & wente awaye sory, for he had greate possessions.

23And Iesus loked aboute him, and sayde vnto his disciples: O how hardly shal the ryche come into ye kyngdome of God? 24And the disciples were astonnyed at his wordes. But Iesus answered agayne, and sayde vnto them: Deare children, how harde is it for them that trust in riches, to come into the kyngdome of God? 25It is easier for a Camell to go thorow the eye of a nedle, then for a rich man to entre in to ye kyngdome of God. 26Yet were they astonnyed ye more, and sayde amonge the selues: Who can the be saued? 27But Iesus behelde them, and sayde: With men it is vnpossyble, but not with God: for with God all thinges are possyble.

28Then sayde Peter vnto him: Beholde, we haue forsaken all, and folowed the. 29Iesus answered & sayde: Verely I saye vnto you: There is no man that forsaketh house, or brethren, or sisters, or father or mother, or wife, or children, or londes for my sake and the gospels, 30that shal not receaue an hundreth folde now in this tyme, houses, and brethre, and sisters, and mothers and children, and londes with persecucions, and in the worlde to come euerlastinge life. 31But many that are the first, shal be the last: and the last the first.

(Matthew 20:17–19; Luke 18:31–34)

32They were in the waye goinge vp to Ierusalem, and Iesus wente before them. And they were astonnyed, and folowed him, and were afrayed. And Iesus toke the twolue agayne, and tolde them what shulde happe vnto him. 33Beholde, we go vp to Ierusalem, and the sonne of man shalbe delyuered vnto the hye prestes and scrybes, and they shal condemne him to death, and delyuer him vnto the Heythe. 34And they shal mocke hi, and scourge him, and spyt vpon him, and put him to death, and on the thirde daye shal he ryse agayne.

Maye ye drynke the cuppe, yt I shal drynke? and be baptysed with the baptyme that I shal be baptysed withall? 39They sayde vnto him: Yee yt we maye. Iesus sayde vnto them: The cuppe that I drynke, shal ye drynke in dede: and be baptysed with the baptyme that I shall be baptysed withall. 40Neuertheles to syt at my right hande and at my left, is not myne to geue you, but vnto them for whom it is prepared.

41And wha the ten herde that, they disdayned at Iames and Ihon. 42But Iesus called them, and sayde vnto them: Ye knowe that the prynces of ye worlde haue domynacion of the people, and ye mightie exercise auctorite amonge them. 43So shal it not be amonge you: but who so euer wil be greate amoge you, shal be youre mynister: 44and who so wyl be chefest amonge you, shalbe seruaunt of all. 45For the sonne of man also came not to be serued, but to do seruyce, and to geue his life to a redempcion for many.
