APPENDIX VI.

Specimens of the Latin-English Testaments of
Coverdale.

(COVERDALE'S BIBLE.)

1 John i.

I That which was from the beginning, which we have APP. VI. heard, which we have seen with our eyes, which we have looked upon, and our hands have handled of the word of life; 2 and the life hath appeared, and we have seen and bear witness and shew unto you the life that is everlasting, which was with the Father and hath appeared unto us. 3 That which we have seen and heard declare we unto you, that ye also may have fellowship with us, and that our fellowship may be with the father and with his Son Jesus Christ. 4 And this write we unto you that your joy may be full. 5 And this is the tidings which we have heard of him and declare unto you that God is light and in him is no darkness at all. 6 If we say that we have fellowship with him and yet walk in darkness, we lie and do not the truth. 7 But if we walk in light even as he is in light, then have we fellowship together, and the blood of Jesus Christ his Son cleanseth us from all sin. 8 If we say that we have no sin, we deceive ourselves and the truth is not in us; 9 but if we know

ledge our sins, he is faithful and just to forgive us our sins and to cleanse us from all unrighteousnees: 10 If we say we have not sinned, we make him a liar and His word is not in us.

APP. VI.

16 If any man see his brother sin a sin not unto death, John.

let him ask and he shall give him life for them that sin not unto death. There is a sin unto death, for the which say I not that a man should pray. 17 All unrighteousness is sin, and there is sin not unto death. 18 We know that whosoever is born of God sinneth not, but he that is begotten of God keepeth himself and that wicked toucheth him not. 19 We know that we are of God and the world is set altogether on wickedness. 20 But we know that the Son of God is come and hath given us a mind to know him which is tru, and we are in him that is true, in his Son Jesu Christ. This is the true God and everlasting life. 21 Babs keep yourselves from images. Amen.
