1	And it fortuned as he was prayinge in a certayne place: when he ceased one of his disciples sayde vnto him: Master teache vs to praye as Iohn taught his disciples.	Now Jesus was praying in a certain place, and when he finished, one of his disciples said to him, “Lord, teach us to pray, as John taught his disciples.”	One day Jesus was praying in a certain place. When he finished, one of his disciples said to him, “Lord, teach us to pray, just as John taught his disciples.”
2	And he sayd vnto the: When ye praye saye: O oure father which arte in heave halowed be thy name. Thy kyngdome come. Thy will be fulfilled even in erth as it is in heaven.	And he said to them, “When you pray, say: “Father, hallowed be your name. Your kingdom come.	He said to them, “When you pray, say: “’Father, hallowed be your name, your kingdom come.
3	Oure dayly breed geve vs evermore.	Give us each day our daily bread,	Give us each day our daily bread.
4	And forgeve vs oure synnes: For eve we forgeve every man yt treaspaseth vs. And ledde vs not into teptacio. But deliver vs fro evill.	and forgive us our sins, for we ourselves forgive everyone who is indebted to us. And lead us not into temptation.”	Forgive us our sins, for we also forgive everyone who sins against us. And lead us not into temptation.’”
5	And he sayde vnto them: if any of you shuld have a frede and shuld goo to him at mid nyght and saye vnto him: frende lende me thre loves	And he said to them, “Which of you who has a friend will go to him at midnight and say to him, ‘Friend, lend me three loaves,	Then Jesus said to them, “Suppose you have a friend, and you go to him at midnight and say, ‘Friend, lend me three loaves of bread;
6	for a frende of myne is come out of the wa ye to me and I have nothinge to set before him:	for a friend of mine has arrived on a journey, and I have nothing to set before him’;	a friend of mine on a journey has come to me, and I have no food to offer him.’
7	and he within shuld answere and saye trouble me not the dore is now sheet and my servautes are with me in the chamber I canot ryse and geve them to the.	and he will answer from within, ‘Do not bother me; the door is now shut, and my children are with me in bed. I cannot get up and give you anything’?	And suppose the one inside answers, ‘Don’t bother me. The door is already locked, and my children and I are in bed. I can’t get up and give you anything.’
8	I saye vnto you though he wold not aryse and geve him because he is his frede: yet because of his importunite he wold rise and geve him as many as he neded.	I tell you, though he will not get up and give him anything because he is his friend, yet because of his impudence he will rise and give him whatever he needs.	I tell you, even though he will not get up and give you the bread because of friendship, yet because of your shameless audacity he will surely get up and give you as much as you need.
9	And I saye vnto you: axe and it shalbe geven you. Seke and ye shall fynde. knocke and it shalbe opened vnto you.	And I tell you, ask, and it will be given to you; seek, and you will find; knock, and it will be opened to you.	“So I say to you: Ask and it will be given to you; seek and you will find; knock and the door will be opened to you.
10	For every one that axeth receaveth: and he that seketh fyndeth: and to him that knocketh shall it be openned.	For everyone who asks receives, and the one who seeks finds, and to the one who knocks it will be opened.	For everyone who asks receives; the one who seeks finds; and to the one who knocks, the door will be opened.
11	Yf the sonne shall axe breed of eny of you that is a father: wyll he geve him a stone? Or yf he axe fisshe wyll he for a fysshe geve him a serpent?	What father among you, if his son asks for a fish, will instead of a fish give him a serpent;	“Which of you fathers, if your son asks for a fish, will give him a snake instead?
12	Or yf he axe an egge: wyll he offer him a scorpion?	or if he asks for an egg, will give him a scorpion?	Or if he asks for an egg, will give him a scorpion?
13	Yf ye then which are evyll canne geve good giftes vnto youre chyldren how moche more shall the father of heaven geve an holy sprete to them that desyre it of him?	If you then, who are evil, know how to give good gifts to your children, how much more will the heavenly Father give the Holy Spirit to those who ask him!”	If you then, though you are evil, know how to give good gifts to your children, how much more will your Father in heaven give the Holy Spirit to those who ask him!”
14	And he was a castynge out a devyll which was dome. And it folowed when the devyll was gone out the domme spake and the people wondred.	Now he was casting out a demon that was mute. When the demon had gone out, the mute man spoke, and the people marveled.	Jesus was driving out a demon that was mute. When the demon left, the man who had been mute spoke, and the crowd was amazed.
15	But some of the sayde: he casteth out devyls by the power of Belzebub the chefe of the devyls.	But some of them said, “He casts out demons by Beelzebul, the prince of demons,”	But some of them said, “By Beelzebul, the prince of demons, he is driving out demons.”
16	And other tempted him sekinge of him a signe fro heave.	while others, to test him, kept seeking from him a sign from heaven.	Others tested him by asking for a sign from heaven.
17	But he knewe their thoughtes and sayde vnto them: Every kingdome devided with in it silfe shalbe desolate: and one housse shall fall vpon another.	But he, knowing their thoughts, said to them, “Every kingdom divided against itself is laid waste, and a divided household falls.	Jesus knew their thoughts and said to them: “Any kingdom divided against itself will be ruined, and a house divided against itself will fall.
18	So if Satan be devided with in him silfe: how shall his kyngdome endure? Because ye saye that I cast out devyls by the power of Belzebub.	And if Satan also is divided against himself, how will his kingdom stand? For you say that I cast out demons by Beelzebul.	If Satan is divided against himself, how can his kingdom stand? I say this because you claim that I drive out demons by Beelzebul.
19	Yf I by the power of Belzebub caste oute devyls: by whome do youre chyldren cast them out? Therfore shall they be youre iudges.	And if I cast out demons by Beelzebul, by whom do your sons cast them out? Therefore they will be your judges.	Now if I drive out demons by Beelzebul, by whom do your followers drive them out? So then, they will be your judges.
20	But if I with ye finger of God cast out devyls noo doute the kyngdome of God is come vpon you.	But if it is by the finger of God that I cast out demons, then the kingdom of God has come upon you.	But if I drive out demons by the finger of God, then the kingdom of God has come upon you.
21	When a stronge man armed watcheth his housse: yt he possesseth is in peace.	When a strong man, fully armed, guards his own palace, his goods are safe;	“When a strong man, fully armed, guards his own house, his possessions are safe.
22	But when a stronger then he cometh vpo him and overcometh him: he taketh from him his harnes wherin he trusted and devideth his gooddes.	but when one stronger than he attacks him and overcomes him, he takes away his armor in which he trusted and divides his spoil.	But when someone stronger attacks and overpowers him, he takes away the armor in which the man trusted and divides up his plunder.
23	He that is not with me is agayns t me. And he that gadereth not with me scattereth.	Whoever is not with me is against me, and whoever does not gather with me scatters.	“Whoever is not with me is against me, and whoever does not gather with me scatters.
24	When the vnclene sprete is gone out of a man he walketh through waterlesse places sekinge reest. And when he fyndeth none he sayeth: I will returne agayne vnto my housse whence I came out.	“When the unclean spirit has gone out of a person, it passes through waterless places seeking rest, and finding none it says, ‘I will return to my house from which I came.’	“When an impure spirit comes out of a person, it goes through arid places seeking rest and does not find it. Then it says, ‘I will return to the house I left.’
25	And when he cometh he fyndeth it swept and garnissed.	And when it comes, it finds the house swept and put in order.	When it arrives, it finds the house swept clean and put in order.
26	Then goeth he and taketh to him seve other spretes worsse then himsilfe: and they enter in and dwell there. And the ende of that man is worsse then the begynninge.	Then it goes and brings seven other spirits more evil than itself, and they enter and dwell there. And the last state of that person is worse than the first.”	Then it goes and takes seven other spirits more wicked than itself, and they go in and live there. And the final condition of that person is worse than the first.”
27	And it fortuned as he spake those thinges a certayne woman of the copany lyfte vp her voyce and sayde vnto him: Happy is the wombe that bare the and the pappes which gave the sucke.	As he said these things, a woman in the crowd raised her voice and said to him, “Blessed is the womb that bore you, and the breasts at which you nursed!”	As Jesus was saying these things, a woman in the crowd called out, “Blessed is the mother who gave you birth and nursed you.”
28	But he sayde: Ye happy are they that heare the worde of God and kepe it.	But he said, “Blessed rather are those who hear the word of God and keep it!”	He replied, “Blessed rather are those who hear the word of God and obey it.”
29	When the people were gadered thicke to geder: he began to saye. This is an evyll nacion: they seke a signe and ther shall no signe be geven them but the signe of Ionas the Prophet.	When the crowds were increasing, he began to say, “This generation is an evil generation. It seeks for a sign, but no sign will be given to it except the sign of Jonah.	As the crowds increased, Jesus said, “This is a wicked generation. It asks for a sign, but none will be given it except the sign of Jonah.
30	For as Ionas was a signe to the Ninivites so shall ye sonne of ma be to this nacio.	For as Jonah became a sign to the people of Nineveh, so will the Son of Man be to this generation.	For as Jonah was a sign to the Ninevites, so also will the Son of Man be to this generation.
31	The quene of the southe shall ryse at iudgement with the men of this generacio and condempne them: for she came fro the ende of the worlde to heare the wysdome of Salomon. And beholde a greater then Salomon is here.	The queen of the South will rise up at the judgment with the men of this generation and condemn them, for she came from the ends of the earth to hear the wisdom of Solomon, and behold, something greater than Solomon is here.	The Queen of the South will rise at the judgment with the people of this generation and condemn them, for she came from the ends of the earth to listen to Solomon’s wisdom; and now something greater than Solomon is here.
32	The men of Ninive shall ryse at the iudgement wt this generacio and shall condepne the: for they repented at the preachinge of Ionas. And beholde a greater then Ionas is here.	The men of Nineveh will rise up at the judgment with this generation and condemn it, for they repented at the preaching of Jonah, and behold, something greater than Jonah is here.	The men of Nineveh will stand up at the judgment with this generation and condemn it, for they repented at the preaching of Jonah; and now something greater than Jonah is here.
33	Noo man lighteth a candell and putteth it in a previe place nether vnder a busshell: But on a candelsticke that they that come in maye se ye light.	“No one after lighting a lamp puts it in a cellar or under a basket, but on a stand, so that those who enter may see the light.	“No one lights a lamp and puts it in a place where it will be hidden, or under a bowl. Instead they put it on its stand, so that those who come in may see the light.
34	The light of thy body is the eye. Therfore when thine eye is single: then is all thy body full of light. But if thine eye be evyll: then shall thy body also be full of darknes.	Your eye is the lamp of your body. When your eye is healthy, your whole body is full of light, but when it is bad, your body is full of darkness.	Your eye is the lamp of your body. When your eyes are healthy, your whole body also is full of light. But when they are unhealthy, your body also is full of darkness.
35	Take hede therfore that the light which is in the be not darknes.	Therefore be careful lest the light in you be darkness.	See to it, then, that the light within you is not darkness.
36	For if all thy body shalbe light havynge noo parte darke: then shall all be full of light even as when a candell doeth light the with his brightnes.	If then your whole body is full of light, having no part dark, it will be wholly bright, as when a lamp with its rays gives you light.”	Therefore, if your whole body is full of light, and no part of it dark, it will be just as full of light as when a lamp shines its light on you.”
37	And as he spake a certayne Pharise besought him to dyne with him: and he went in and sate doune to meate.	While Jesus was speaking, a Pharisee asked him to dine with him, so he went in and reclined at table.	When Jesus had finished speaking, a Pharisee invited him to eat with him; so he went in and reclined at the table.
38	When the Pharise sawe that he marveylled yt he had not fyrst wesshed before dyner.	The Pharisee was astonished to see that he did not first wash before dinner.	But the Pharisee was surprised when he noticed that Jesus did not first wash before the meal.
39	And ye Lorde sayde to him: Now do ye Pharises make clene the out side of the cup and of the platter: but youre inwarde parties are full of raveninge and wickednes.	And the Lord said to him, “Now you Pharisees cleanse the outside of the cup and of the dish, but inside you are full of greed and wickedness.	Then the Lord said to him, “Now then, you Pharisees clean the outside of the cup and dish, but inside you are full of greed and wickedness.
40	Ye foles dyd not he that made that which is without: make that which is within also?	You fools! Did not he who made the outside make the inside also?	You foolish people! Did not the one who made the outside make the inside also?
41	Neverthelesse geve almose of that ye have and beholde all is clene to you.	But give as alms those things that are within, and behold, everything is clean for you.	But now as for what is inside you—be generous to the poor, and everything will be clean for you.
42	But wo be to you Pharises for ye tithe the mynt and rewe and all manner erbes and passe over iudgment and the love of God. These ought ye to have done and yet not to have left the other vndone.	“But woe to you Pharisees! For you tithe mint and rue and every herb, and neglect justice and the love of God. These you ought to have done, without neglecting the others.	“Woe to you Pharisees, because you give God a tenth of your mint, rue and all other kinds of garden herbs, but you neglect justice and the love of God. You should have practiced the latter without leaving the former undone.
43	Wo be to you Pharises: for ye love the vppermost seates in the synagoges and gretinges in the markets.	Woe to you Pharisees! For you love the best seat in the synagogues and greetings in the marketplaces.	“Woe to you Pharisees, because you love the most important seats in the synagogues and respectful greetings in the marketplaces.
44	Wo be to you scribes and pharises ypocrites for ye are as graves which appere not and the men yt walke over the are not ware of the.	Woe to you! For you are like unmarked graves, and people walk over them without knowing it.”	“Woe to you, because you are like unmarked graves, which people walk over without knowing it.”
45	Then answered one of the lawears and sayd vnto him: Master thus sayinge thou puttest vs to rebuke also.	One of the lawyers answered him, “Teacher, in saying these things you insult us also.”	One of the experts in the law answered him, “Teacher, when you say these things, you insult us also.”
46	Then he sayde: Wo be to you also ye lawears: for ye lade men with burthens greveous to be borne and ye youre selves touche not ye packes wt one of youre fyngers.	And he said, “Woe to you lawyers also! For you load people with burdens hard to bear, and you yourselves do not touch the burdens with one of your fingers.	Jesus replied, “And you experts in the law, woe to you, because you load people down with burdens they can hardly carry, and you yourselves will not lift one finger to help them.
47	Wo be to you: ye bylde the sepulchres of the Prophetes and youre fathers killed the:	Woe to you! For you build the tombs of the prophets whom your fathers killed.	“Woe to you, because you build tombs for the prophets, and it was your ancestors who killed them.
48	truly ye beare witnes that ye alowe the dedes of youre fathers for they kylled them and ye bylde their sepulchres.	So you are witnesses and you consent to the deeds of your fathers, for they killed them, and you build their tombs.	So you testify that you approve of what your ancestors did; they killed the prophets, and you build their tombs.
49	Therfore sayde ye wisdome of God: I will send them Prophetes and Apostles and of them they shall slee and persecute:	Therefore also the Wisdom of God said, ‘I will send them prophets and apostles, some of whom they will kill and persecute,’	Because of this, God in his wisdom said, ‘I will send them prophets and apostles, some of whom they will kill and others they will persecute.’
50	that the bloude of all Prophetes which was sheed fro the beginninge of the worlde maye be requyred of this generacion	so that the blood of all the prophets, shed from the foundation of the world, may be charged against this generation,	Therefore this generation will be held responsible for the blood of all the prophets that has been shed since the beginning of the world,
51	from the bloud of Abell vnto the bloud of zachary which perisshed bitwene the aulter and the temple. Verely I saye vnto you: it shalbe requyred of this nacion.	from the blood of Abel to the blood of Zechariah, who perished between the altar and the sanctuary. Yes, I tell you, it will be required of this generation.	from the blood of Abel to the blood of Zechariah, who was killed between the altar and the sanctuary. Yes, I tell you, this generation will be held responsible for it all.
52	Wo be to you lawears: for ye have taken awaye ye keye of knowledge ye entred not in youre selves and them that came in ye forbade.	Woe to you lawyers! For you have taken away the key of knowledge. You did not enter yourselves, and you hindered those who were entering.”	“Woe to you experts in the law, because you have taken away the key to knowledge. You yourselves have not entered, and you have hindered those who were entering.”
53	When he thus spake vnto them the lawears and the Pharises began to wexe busye about him and to stop his mouth with many questions	As he went away from there, the scribes and the Pharisees began to press him hard and to provoke him to speak about many things,	When Jesus went outside, the Pharisees and the teachers of the law began to oppose him fiercely and to besiege him with questions,
54	layinge wayte for him and sekinge to catche somethinge of his mought wherby they might accuse him.	lying in wait for him, to catch him in something he might say.	waiting to catch him in something he might say.
