Bishops Bible 1568

   

40:1Moreouer the Lorde spake vnto Iob, and saide
40:2Shall he whom the almightie wyl chasten, contend with him? Should not he which disputeth with God, geue him an aunswere
40:3Then Iob aunswered the Lorde, saying
40:4Beholde, I am vyle, what shall I aunswere thee, therefore I wyll laye my hande vpon my mouth
40:5Once haue I spoken, but I wyll saye no more: yea twyse, but I wyl proceede no further
40:6Then aunswered the Lorde vnto Iob out of the whirle winde, and saide
40:7Girde vp thy loynes now lyke a man: I wyll demaunde of thee, and make thou aunswere
40:8Wylt thou disanul my iudgement? or wylt thou condempne me, that thou mayst be righteous
40:9Is thy power then lyke the power of God? maketh thy voyce a sounde as his doth
40:10Decke thy selfe now with excellencie and maiestie, and araye thy selfe with beautie and glory
40:11Cast abrode the indignation of thy wrath, and beholde euery one that is proude, and abase him
40:12Loke on euery one that is arrogant, and bring him lowe, & destroy the wicked in their place
40:13Hide them in the dust together, and couer their faces in secrete
40:14Then wyll I confesse vnto thee also, that thyne owne right hande shall saue thee
40:15Beholde the beaste Behemoth, who I made with thee, which eateth haye as an oxe
40:16Lo how his strength is in his loynes, and what power he hath in the nauil of his body
40:17When he wyll, he spreadeth out his tayle lyke a Cedar tree, all his sinowes are stiffe
40:18His bones are lyke pipes of brasse, yea his bones are lyke staues of iron
40:19He is the chiefe of the wayes of God, he that made him wyl make his sword to approche vnto him
40:20Surely the mountaines bring him foorth grasse, where all the beastes of the fielde take their pastime
40:21He resteth him in the shade, in the couerte of the reede and fennes
40:22The trees couer him with their shadowe, and the wyllowes of the brooke compasse him about
40:23Beholde, he drinketh vp whole ryuers and feareth not, he thinketh that he can drawe vp Iordane into his mouth
40:24He taketh it with his eyes, and yet the hunter putteth a bridle into his nose
Bishops Bible 1568

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.
