| 16:2 | And early in the mornyng, the first day of the Sabbothes, they came vnto the sepulchre, when the sunne was rysen: |
| 16:3 | And they sayde among them selues, who shall roule vs away the stone from the doore of the sepulchre? |
| 16:4 | And when they loked, they sawe how that the stone was rouled awaye, for it was a very great one. |
| 16:5 | And they went into the sepulchre, and sawe a young man syttyng on the ryght syde, clothed in a long whyte garment, and they were amased. |
| 16:6 | And he sayth vnto them, be not amased: ye seke Iesus of Nazareth, which was crucified: He is risen, he is not here, beholde the place where they had put hym. |
| 16:7 | But go your way, & tell his disciples, and Peter, that he goeth before you into Galilee, there shall ye see hym, as he saide vnto you. |
| 16:8 | And they went out quickly, and fled from the sepulchre, for they trembled & were amased: neither sayde they any thing to any man, for they were afraide. |
| 16:9 | When [Iesus] was rysen early, the first [day] after the Sabboth, he appeared firste to Marie Magdalene, out of whom he had cast seuen deuils. |
| 16:10 | And she went & tolde them that were with hym, as they mourned & wept. |
| 16:11 | And they, when they hearde that he was alyue, and had ben seene of her, beleued it not. |
| 16:12 | After that, appeared he vnto two of them in another fourme, as they walked and went into the countrey. |
| 16:13 | And they went and tolde it vnto the residue: and [they] beleued not these also. |
| 16:14 | Afterwarde, he appeared vnto the eleuen, as they sate at meate, and cast in their teeth their vnbeliefe and hardnes of heart, because they beleued not them whiche had seene that he was rysen agayne from the dead. |
| 16:15 | And he sayde vnto them: Go ye into all the worlde, and preache the Gospell to all creatures. |
| 16:16 | He that beleueth, and is baptized, shalbe saued: But he that beleueth not, shalbe dampned. |
| 16:17 | And these tokens shall folowe them that beleue. In my name they shal cast out deuils, they shall speake with newe tongues, |
| 16:18 | They shall driue away serpentes: and yf they drinke any deadly thyng, it shall not hurte them: They shall lay their handes on the sicke, & they shal recouer. |
| 16:19 | So then, when the Lorde had spoken vnto them, he was receaued into heauen, and sate hym downe on the ryght hande of God. |
| 16:20 | And they went foorth, and preached euerywhere, the Lorde workyng with them, and confirmyng the worde with signes folowyng. |
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.
