1 | GEN 1:1 | In the beginning God made of nought heaven and earth. |
2 | GEN 1:2 | Forsooth the earth was idle and void, and darknesses were on the face of depth; and the Spirit of the Lord was borne on the waters [or the Spirit of God was borne upon the waters]. |
3 | GEN 1:3 | And God said, Light be made, and the light was made. |
4 | GEN 1:4 | And God saw the light, that it was good, and he parted the light from darknesses; |
5 | GEN 1:5 | and he called the light, day, and the darknesses, night. And the eventide and the morrowtide was made, one day. |
6 | GEN 1:6 | And God said, The firmament be made in the midst of waters, and part waters from waters. |
7 | GEN 1:7 | And God made the firmament, and parted the waters that were under the firmament, from the waters that were on the firmament [or that were above the firmament]; and it was done so. |
8 | GEN 1:8 | And God called the firmament, heaven. And the eventide and the morrowtide was made, the second day. |
9 | GEN 1:9 | Forsooth God said, The waters, that be under heaven, be gathered into one place, and a dry place appear; and it was done so. |
10 | GEN 1:10 | And God called the dry place, earth; and he called the gatherings together of waters, the seas. And God saw that it was good; |
11 | GEN 1:11 | and said, The earth bring forth green herb, and making seed, and an apple tree making fruit by his kind, whose seed be in itself, on [the] earth; and it was done so. |
12 | GEN 1:12 | And the earth brought forth green herb and making seed by his kind, and a tree making fruit, and each having seed by his kind. And God saw that it was good. |
13 | GEN 1:13 | And the eventide and the morrowtide was made, the third day. |
14 | GEN 1:14 | Forsooth God said, Lights be made in the firmament of heaven, and part they the day and night; and be they into signs, and times, and days, and years; |
15 | GEN 1:15 | and shine those in the firmament of heaven, and lighten they the earth; and it was done so. |
16 | GEN 1:16 | And God made two great lights, the greater light that it should be before to the day, and the lesser light that it should be before to the night; and God made stars; |
17 | GEN 1:17 | and setted them in the firmament of heaven, that they should shine on [the] earth, |
18 | GEN 1:18 | and that they should be before to the day and [to the] night, and should part light and darkness. And God saw that it was good. |
19 | GEN 1:19 | And the eventide and the morrow-tide was made, the fourth day. |
20 | GEN 1:20 | Also God said, The waters bring forth a reptile, either a creeping beast, of living soul, and a volatile, either a bird flying above [the] earth, under the firmament of heaven. |
21 | GEN 1:21 | And God made of nought great whales, and each living soul and movable, which the waters have brought forth in their kinds; and God made of nought each volatile by his kind. And God saw that it was good; |
22 | GEN 1:22 | and blessed them, and said, Wax ye, and be ye multiplied, and fill ye the waters of the sea, and [the] birds be multiplied on [the] earth. |
23 | GEN 1:23 | And the eventide and the morrowtide was made, the fifth day. |
24 | GEN 1:24 | And God said, The earth bring forth a living soul in his kind, work beasts, and reptiles, either creeping beasts, and unreasonable beasts of [the] earth, by their kinds; and it was done so. |
25 | GEN 1:25 | And God made unreasonable beasts of the earth by their kinds, and work beasts, and each creeping beast of the earth in his kind. And God saw that it was good; |
26 | GEN 1:26 | and said, Make we man to our image and likeness, and be he sovereign to the fishes of the sea, and to the volatiles of heaven, and to [the] unreasonable beasts of [the] earth, and to each creature, and to each creeping beast or each reptile, which is moved in [the] earth. |
27 | GEN 1:27 | And God made of nought a man to his image and likeness; God made of nought a man, to the image of God; God made of nought them, male and female. |
28 | GEN 1:28 | And God blessed them, and said, Increase ye, and be ye multiplied, and fill ye the earth, and make ye it subject; and be ye lords to the fishes of the sea, and to [the] volatiles of heaven, and to all living beasts that be moved on [the] earth. |
29 | GEN 1:29 | And God said, Lo! I have given to you each herb bearing seed on [the] earth, and all trees that have in themselves the seed of their kind, that they be into meat to you; |
30 | GEN 1:30 | and to all living beasts of [the] earth, and to each bird of heaven, and to all things that be moved in [the] earth, and in which is a living soul, that they have to eat; and it was done so. |
31 | GEN 1:31 | And God saw all things which he made, and they were full good. And the eventide and the morrowtide was made, the sixth day. |
32 | GEN 2:1 | Therefore heavens and earth be made perfect, and all the ornament of those [or them]. |
33 | GEN 2:2 | And God [ful] filled in the seventh day his work which he made; and he rested in the seventh day from all his work which he had made; |
34 | GEN 2:3 | and he blessed the seventh day, and hallowed it; for in that day God ceased of all his work which he made of nought, that he should make. |
35 | GEN 2:4 | These be the generations of heaven and of earth, in the day wherein the Lord God made heaven and earth, |
36 | GEN 2:5 | and each little tree of [the] earth before that it sprang out in [the] earth; and he made each herb of the field before that it burgeoned. For the Lord God had not rained on the earth, and no man there was that wrought [or might work] the earth; |
37 | GEN 2:6 | but a well went out of [the] earth, and moisted all the higher part of the earth. |
38 | GEN 2:7 | Therefore the Lord God formed man of the slime of [the] earth, and breathed into his face the breathing of life; and man was made into a living soul. |
39 | GEN 2:8 | Forsooth the Lord God planted at the beginning paradise of liking or the garden of Eden, wherein he set man whom he had formed. |
40 | GEN 2:9 | And the Lord God brought forth of the earth each tree fair in sight, and sweet to eat; also he brought forth the tree of life in the midst of paradise, and the tree of knowing of good and of evil. |
41 | GEN 2:10 | And a river went out from the place of liking or Eden to moist paradise or the garden, which river is parted from thence into four heads. |
42 | GEN 2:11 | The name of the one river is Pishon, that it is that encompasseth all the land of Havilah, where gold cometh forth, |
43 | GEN 2:12 | and the gold of that land is the best, and there is found bdellium, that is, a tree of spicery, and the stone onyx; |
44 | GEN 2:13 | and the name of the second river is Gihon, that it is that encompasseth all the land of Ethiopia; |
45 | GEN 2:14 | forsooth the name of the third river is Tigris, that goeth against Assyrians; soothly the fourth river is that Euphrates. |
46 | GEN 2:15 | Therefore the Lord God took man, and set him in paradise of liking, that he should work and keep it. |
47 | GEN 2:16 | And God commanded to him and said, Eat thou of each tree of paradise; |
48 | GEN 2:17 | forsooth eat thou not of the tree of knowing of good and of evil; for in whatever day thou shalt eat thereof, thou shalt die by death. |
49 | GEN 2:18 | And the Lord God said, It is not good that a man be alone; make we to him an helper like to himself. |
50 | GEN 2:19 | And therefore when all living beasts of [the] earth, and all the volatiles of heaven, were formed of [the] earth, the Lord God brought those [or them] to Adam, that he should see what he should call those [or them]; for all thing that Adam called of living soul, that is the name thereof. |
51 | GEN 2:20 | And Adam called by their names all living things, and all volatiles [of heavens], and all unreasonable beasts of [the] earth. Forsooth to Adam was not found an helper like him. |
52 | GEN 2:21 | Therefore the Lord God sent sleep into Adam, and when he slept, God took one of his ribs, and filled flesh for it. |
53 | GEN 2:22 | And the Lord God builded the rib which he had taken from Adam into a woman, and brought her to Adam. |
54 | GEN 2:23 | And Adam said, This is now a bone of my bones, and flesh of my flesh; this shall be called virago, for she is taken of man. |
55 | GEN 2:24 | Wherefore a man shall forsake [his] father and mother, and shall cleave to his wife, and they shall be twain [or two] in one flesh. |
56 | GEN 2:25 | Forsooth ever either was naked, that is, Adam and his wife, and they were not ashamed. |
57 | GEN 3:1 | But the serpent was feller or more sly than all living beasts of [the] earth, which the Lord God had made. The which serpent said to the woman, Why commanded God to you, that ye should not eat of each tree of paradise? |
58 | GEN 3:2 | To whom the woman answered, We eat of the fruit of trees that be in paradise; |
59 | GEN 3:3 | soothly God commanded to us, that we should not eat of the fruit of the tree, which is in the midst of paradise, and that we should not touch it, lest peradventure we die. |
60 | GEN 3:4 | Forsooth the serpent said to the woman, Ye shall not die by death; |
61 | GEN 3:5 | for why God knoweth that in what-ever day ye shall eat thereof, your eyes shall be opened, and ye shall be as Gods, knowing good and evil. |
62 | GEN 3:6 | Therefore the woman saw that the tree was good, and sweet to eat, and fair to the eyes, and delightable in beholding; and she took of the fruit thereof, and ate, and gave to her husband, and he ate. |
63 | GEN 3:7 | And the eyes of both were opened; and when they knew that they were naked, they sewed [together] the leaves of a fig tree, and made breeches to themselves. |
64 | GEN 3:8 | And when they heard the voice of the Lord God going in paradise at the wind after midday, Adam and his wife hid them from the face of the Lord God in [the] midst of the trees of paradise. |
65 | GEN 3:9 | And the Lord God called Adam, and said to him, Where art thou? |
66 | GEN 3:10 | And Adam said, I heard thy voice in paradise, and I dreaded, for I was naked, and I hid me. |
67 | GEN 3:11 | To whom the Lord said, Who showed to thee that thou were naked, no but for thou hast eaten of the tree of which I commanded to thee that thou shouldest not eat? |
68 | GEN 3:12 | And Adam said, The woman which thou gavest for fellowship to me, gave me of the tree, and I ate. |
69 | GEN 3:13 | And the Lord said to the woman, Why didest thou this thing? The which answered, The serpent deceived me, and I ate. |
70 | GEN 3:14 | And the Lord God said to the serpent, For thou didest this, thou shalt be cursed among all [the] living things, and unreasonable beasts of [the] earth; thou shalt go on thy breast, and thou shalt eat earth in all the days of thy life. |
71 | GEN 3:15 | I shall set [or put] enmities betwixt thee and the woman, and betwixt thy seed and her seed; she shall break thine head, and thou shalt set ambushes to her heel. |
72 | GEN 3:16 | Also God said to the woman, I shall multiply thy wretchednesses and thy conceivings; in sorrow thou shalt bear thy children; and thou shalt be under power of thine husband, and he shall be lord of thee. |
73 | GEN 3:17 | Soothly God said to Adam, For thou heardest the voice of thy wife, and hast eaten of the tree, of which I commanded to thee that thou shouldest not eat, the earth shall be cursed in thy work, that is, for thy sin; in travails thou shalt eat thereof in all the days of thy life; |
74 | GEN 3:18 | it shall bring forth thorns and briars to thee, and thou shalt eat herbs of the earth; |
75 | GEN 3:19 | in [the] sweat of thy cheer, [or face], thou shalt eat thy bread, till thou turn again into the earth of which thou art taken; for thou art dust, and thou shalt turn again into dust. |
76 | GEN 3:20 | And Adam called the name of his wife Eve, for she was the mother of all men living. |
77 | GEN 3:21 | And the Lord God made coats of skins to Adam and Eve his wife, and clothed them; |
78 | GEN 3:22 | and said, Lo! Adam is made as one of us, and knoweth good and evil; now therefore see ye, lest peradventure he put [out] his hand, and take [also] of the tree of life, and eat, and live without end. |
79 | GEN 3:23 | And the Lord God sent him out of paradise of liking or the garden of Eden, that he should work the earth, of which he was taken. |
80 | GEN 3:24 | And God casted out Adam, and setted before paradise of liking cherubim, that is, gave it unto the keeping of angels, and a sword of flame turning about to keep charge of the way of the tree of life. |
81 | GEN 4:1 | Forsooth Adam knew Eve his wife, which conceived, and childed Cain, and said, I have gotten a man by God. |
82 | GEN 4:2 | And again she childed his brother Abel. Forsooth Abel was a keeper of sheep, and Cain was an earth-tiller. |
83 | GEN 4:3 | Soothly it was done after many days, that Cain offered gifts to the Lord of the fruits of the earth; |
84 | GEN 4:4 | and Abel offered of the first engendered of his flock, and of the fatness of those [or them]. And the Lord beheld to Abel and to the gifts of him; |
85 | GEN 4:5 | soothly he beheld not to Cain and to his gifts. And Cain was wroth greatly, and his cheer felled down. |
86 | GEN 4:6 | And the Lord said to him, Why art thou wroth, and why felled down thy face? |
87 | GEN 4:7 | Whether not if thou shalt do well, thou shalt receive well; but if thou doest evil, thy sin shall be present anon in the gates? but the desire thereof, that is, of sin, shall be under thee, and thou shalt be lord thereof. |
88 | GEN 4:8 | And Cain said to Abel, his brother, Go we out. And when they were in the field, Cain rose against his brother Abel, and killed him. |
89 | GEN 4:9 | And the Lord said to Cain, Where is Abel thy brother? Which answered, I know not; whether I am the keeper of my brother? |
90 | GEN 4:10 | And God said to Cain, What hast thou done? the voice of the blood of thy brother crieth to me from [the] earth. |
91 | GEN 4:11 | Now therefore thou shalt be cursed on [the] earth, that opened his mouth, and received of thine hand the blood of thy brother. |
92 | GEN 4:12 | When thou shalt work the earth, it shall not give his fruits to thee; thou shalt be unstable of dwelling, and fleeing about on [the] earth, in all the days of thy life. |
93 | GEN 4:13 | And Cain said to the Lord, My wickedness is more than that I deserve forgiveness; |
94 | GEN 4:14 | lo! today thou castest me out from the face of the earth; and I shall be hid from thy face, and I shall be unstable of dwelling, and fleeing about in earth; therefore each man that shall find me shall slay me. |
95 | GEN 4:15 | And the Lord said to him, It shall not be done so, but each man that shall slay Cain shall be punished sevenfold. And the Lord set a sign in Cain, that each man that should find him should not slay him. |
96 | GEN 4:16 | And Cain went out from the face of the Lord, and dwelled fleeing about in [the] earth, at the east coast of Eden, that is, of earthly paradise. |
97 | GEN 4:17 | Forsooth Cain knew his wife, which conceived, and childed Enoch; and Cain builded a city, and called the name thereof of the name of his son, Enoch. |
98 | GEN 4:18 | Forsooth Enoch begat Irad; and Irad begat Mehujael; and Mehujael begat Methusael; and Methusael begat Lamech; |
99 | GEN 4:19 | that took two wives, the name to the one wife was Adah, and the name to the other was Zillah. |
100 | GEN 4:20 | And Adah begat Jabal, that was the father of dwellers in tents, and of shepherds; |
