King James Bible 1611

 

   

20:1For the kingdome of heauen is like vnto a man that is an housholder, which went out early in the morning to hire labourers into his vineyard.
20:2And when hee had agreed with the labourers for a peny a day, he sent them into his vineyard.
20:3And he went out about the third houre, and saw others standing idle in the market place,
20:4And said vnto them, Go ye also into the vineyard, & whatsoeuer is right, I wil giue you. And they went their way.
20:5Againe he went out about the sixth and ninth houre, and did likewise.
20:6And about the eleuenth houre, he went out, and found others standing idle, and saith vnto them, Why stand ye here all the day idle?
20:7They say vnto him, Because no man hath hired vs. He saith vnto them, Go ye also into the vineyard: and whatsoeuer is right, that shall ye receiue.
20:8So when euen was come, the lord of the vineyard saith vnto his Steward, Call the labourers, and giue them their hire, beginning from the last, vnto the first.
20:9And when they came that were hired about the eleuenth houre, they receiued euery man a penie.
20:10But when the first came, they supposed that they should haue receiued more, and they likewise receiued euery man a penie.
20:11And when they had receiued it, they murmured against the good man of the house,
20:12Saying, These last haue wrought but one houre, and thou hast made them equall vnto vs, which haue borne the burden, and heat of the day.
20:13But he answered one of them and said, Friend, I do thee no wrong: didst not thou agree with me for a penie?
20:14Take that thine is, and goe thy way, I will giue vnto this last, euen as vnto thee.
20:15Is it not lawfull for mee to doe what I wil with mine owne? Is thine eye euill, because I am good?
20:16So the last shall be first, and the first last: for many bee called, but fewe chosen.
20:17And Iesus going vp to Hierusalem, tooke the twelue disciples apart in the way, and said vnto them,
20:18Behold, we goe vp to Hierusalem, and the Sonne of man shall be betraied vnto the chiefe Priests, and vnto the Scribes, and they shall condemne him to death,
20:19And shal deliuer him to the Gentiles to mocke, and to scourge, and to crucifie him: and the third day he shall rise againe.
20:20Then came to him the mother of Zebedees children, with her sonnes, worshipping him, and desiring a certain thing of him.
20:21And he said vnto her, What wilt thou? She saith vnto him, Grant, that these my two sonnes may sit, the one on thy right hand, and the other on the left in thy kingdome.
20:22But Iesus answered, and said, Ye know not what ye aske. Are ye able to drinke of the cup that I shall drinke of, and to be baptized with the baptisme that I am baptized with? They say vnto him, We are able.
20:23And he saith vnto them, Yee shall drinke indeed of my cup, and be baptized with the baptisme that I am baptized with: but to sit on my right hand, and on my left, is not mine to giue, but it shall be giuen to them for whom it is prepared of my father.
20:24And when the ten heard it, they were moued with indignation against the two brethren.
20:25But Iesus called them vnto him, and said, Ye know that the princes of the Gentiles exercise dominion ouer them, and they that are great, exercise authoritie vpon them.
20:26But it shall not be so among you: But whosoeuer will bee great among you, let him be your minister.
20:27And whosoeuer will be chiefe among you, let him be your seruant.
20:28Euen as the Sonne of man came not to be ministred vnto, but minister, and to giue his life a ransome for many.
20:29And as they departed from Hiericho, a great multitude followed him.
20:30And behold, two blind men sitting by the way side, when they heard that Iesus passed by, cried out, saying, Haue mercie on vs, O Lord, thou sonne of Dauid.
20:31And the multitude rebuked them, because they should holde their peace: but they cried the more, saying, Haue mercie on vs, O Lord, thou sonne of Dauid.
20:32And Iesus stood still, and called them, and saide, What will yee that I shall doe vnto you?
20:33They say vnto him, Lord, that our eyes may be opened.
20:34So Iesus had compassion on them, and touched their eyes: and immediatly their eyes receiued sight, and they followed him.

King James Bible 1611

The commissioning of the King James Bible took place at a conference at the Hampton Court Palace in London England in 1604. When King James came to the throne he wanted unity and stability in the church and state, but was well aware that the diversity of his constituents had to be considered. There were the Papists who longed for the English church to return to the Roman Catholic fold and the Latin Vulgate. There were Puritans, loyal to the crown but wanting even more distance from Rome. The Puritans used the Geneva Bible which contained footnotes that the king regarded as seditious. The Traditionalists made up of Bishops of the Anglican Church wanted to retain the Bishops Bible.

The king commissioned a new English translation to be made by over fifty scholars representing the Puritans and Traditionalists. They took into consideration: the Tyndale New Testament, the Matthews Bible, the Great Bible and the Geneva Bible. The great revision of the Bible had begun. From 1605 to 1606 the scholars engaged in private research. From 1607 to 1609 the work was assembled. In 1610 the work went to press, and in 1611 the first of the huge (16 inch tall) pulpit folios known today as "The 1611 King James Bible" came off the printing press.
