Bishops Bible 1568
| 6:1 | Brethren, yf a man be taken in any fault, ye which are spiritual restore such a one in the spirite of mekenes, consideryng thy selfe, lest thou also be tempted. |
| 6:2 | Beare ye one anothers burthen, and so fulfyll the lawe of Christe. |
| 6:3 | For if any man seeme to him selfe that he is somewhat, when he is nothyng, the same deceaueth hymselfe in his owne fansie. |
| 6:4 | But let euery man proue his owne worke, & then shall he haue reioyceyng only in his owne selfe, and not in another. |
| 6:5 | For euery man shall beare his owne burthen. |
| 6:6 | Let hym that is taught in the word, minister vnto hym that teacheth hym, in all good thynges. |
| 6:7 | Be not deceaued, God is not mocked: For whatsoeuer a man soweth, that shall he also reape. |
| 6:8 | For he that soweth into his flesshe, shal of the flesshe reape corruption: But he that soweth into the spirite, shall of the spirite reape lyfe euerlastyng. |
| 6:9 | Let vs not be weery in well doyng: for in due season we shall reape, yf we faynt not. |
| 6:10 | Whyle we haue therefore tyme, let vs do good vnto all men, specially vnto the which are of the housholde of fayth. |
| 6:11 | Ye see how large a letter I haue written vnto you with myne owne hande. |
| 6:12 | As many as desire with outwarde appearaunce to please carnally, the same constrayne you to be circumcised, onlye lest they shoulde suffer persecution for the crosse of Christe. |
| 6:13 | For they the selues which are circumcised, kepe not the lawe: but desire to haue you circumcised, that they myght reioyce in your flesshe. |
| 6:14 | God forbyd that I shoulde reioyce, but in the crosse of our Lorde Iesus Christe, wherby the world is crucified vnto me, and I vnto the worlde. |
| 6:15 | For in Christe Iesu, neither circumcision auayleth any thing, nor vncircumcision, but a newe creature. |
| 6:16 | And as many as walke accordyng to this rule, peace be on them, and mercie, and vpon the Israel [that is] of God. |
| 6:17 | From hencefoorth, let no man put me to busynesse: For I beare in my body the markes of the Lorde Iesus. |
| 6:18 | Brethren, the grace of our Lorde Iesus Christe be with your spirite. Amen. |
Bishops Bible 1568
The Bishops' Bible was produced under the authority of the established Church of England in 1568. It was substantially revised in 1572, and the 1602 edition was prescribed as the base text for the King James Bible completed in 1611. The thorough Calvinism of the Geneva Bible offended the Church of England, to which almost all of its bishops subscribed. They associated Calvinism with Presbyterianism, which sought to replace government of the church by bishops with government by lay elders. However, they were aware that the Great Bible of 1539 , which was the only version then legally authorized for use in Anglican worship, was severely deficient, in that much of the Old Testament and Apocrypha was translated from the Latin Vulgate, rather than from the original Hebrew, Aramaic and Greek. In an attempt to replace the objectionable Geneva translation, they circulated one of their own, which became known as the Bishops' Bible.
