Luke 18:14-42

¹⁴I tell you: this man departed home to his housse iustified moore then the other. For every man that exalteth him selfe shalbe brought low: And he that hubleth him selfe shalbe exalted

¹⁵They brought vnto him also babes that he shuld touche them. When his disciples sawe that they rebuked them.

¹⁶But Iesus called the vnto him and sayde: Suffre chyldren to come vnto me and forbidde the not. For of soche is the kyngdome of God.

¹⁷Verely I saye vnto you: whosoever receaveth not the kyngdome of God as a chylde: he shall not enter therin.

¹⁸And a certayne ruler axed him sayinge: Good Master: what ought I to do to obtayne eternall lyfe?

¹⁹Iesus sayd vnto him: Why callest thou me good? No man is good save God only.

²⁰Thou knowest the commaundmentes: Thou shalt not commit advoutry: thou shalt not kyll: thou shalt not steale: thou shalt not beare false witnes: Honoure thy father and thy mother.

²¹And he sayde: all these have I kept from my youthe.

²²When Iesus hearde that he sayde vnto him: Yet lackest thou one thinge. Sell all that thou hast and distribute it vnto the poore and thou shalt have treasure in heven and come and folowe me.

²³When he heard that he was hevy: for he was very ryche.

²⁴When Iesus sawe him morne he sayde: with what difficulte shall they that have ryches enter into the kyngdome of God:

²⁵it is easyer for a camell to goo thorow a nedles eye then for a ryche man to enter into the kyngdome of God.

²⁶Then sayde they that hearde that: And who shall then be saved?

²⁷And he sayde: Thinges which are vnpossible with men are possible with God.

²⁸Then Peter sayde: Loo we have lefte all and have folowed the.

²⁹And he sayde vnto them: Verely I saye vnto you ther is noo man that leaveth housse other father and mother other brethren or wyfe or chyldren for the kyngdome of Goddes sake

³⁰which same shall not receave moche moore in this worlde: and in the worlde to come lyfe everlastinge.

³¹He toke vnto him twelve and sayde vnto them. Beholde we go vp to Ierusalem and all shalbe fulfilled that are written by the Prophetes of the sonne of man.

³²He shalbe delivered vnto the gentils and shalbe mocked and shalbe despytfully entreated and shalbe spetted on:

³³and when they have scourged him they will put him to deeth and the thyrde daye he shall aryse agayne.

³⁴But they vnderstode none of these thinges. And this sayinge was hid from them. And they perceaved not the thinges which were spoken.

³⁵And it came to passe as he was come nye vnto Hierico a certayne blynde man sate by the waye syde begginge.

³⁶And when he hearde the people passe by he axed what it meant.

³⁷And they sayde vnto him that Iesus of Nazareth passed by.

³⁸And he cryed sayinge: Iesus the sonne of David have thou mercy on me.

³⁹And they which went before rebuked him that he shuld holde his peace. But he cryed so moche the moare thou sonne of David have mercy on me.

⁴⁰And Iesus stode styll and commaunded him to be brought vnto him. And when he was come neare he axed him

⁴¹sayinge: What wilt thou that I do vnto the? And he sayde: Lorde that I maye receave my sight.
