The Great Bible 1539

   

78:1An instruccyon of Asaph. Heare my lawe, O my people, enclyne youre eares vnto the wordes of my mouth.
78:2I wyll open my mouth in a parable, I wyll declare hard sentences of olde.
78:3Whych we haue herde and knowne, and soche as oure fathers haue tolde vs.
78:4That we shulde not hyde them from the chyldren of the generacyons to come: but to shewe the honour of the Lorde, hys might, and wonderfull workes that he hath done.
78:5He made a couenaunt with Iacob, and gaue Israel a lawe which he commaunded oure forefathers to teache their children.
78:6That their posterite myght knowe it, and the children which were yet vnborne.
78:7To thintent that when they came vp, they myght shewe their chyldren the same.
78:8That they myght put their trust in God, and not to forget the workes of God, but to kepe his commaundementes.
78:9And not to be as their forefathers a faythlesse & stubburne generacyon, a generacyon that set not their herte a ryght, and whose sprete cleued not stedfastly vnto God.
78:10Lyke as the chyldren of Ephraim, which beyng harnessed and caryeng bowes, turned them selues backe in the daye of batayll.
78:11They kepte not the couenaunt of God, and wolde not walke in hys lawe.
78:12But forgat what he had done, and the wonderfull worckes that he had shewed for them.
78:13Maruelous thynges dyd he in the syght of oure fathers in the lande of Egypte, euen in the felde of Zoan.
78:14He deuyded the see, and let them go thorow: he made the waters to stande on a heape.
78:15In the daye tyme also he led them wyth a cloude, and all the nyght thorow wt a light of fyre.
78:16He cloaue the hard rockes in the wyldernesse, and gaue them drincke therof, as it had bene out of the greate deapth.
78:17He brought waters out of the stony rocke, so that it gusshed out lyke the ryuers.
78:18Yet for all this they synned more agaynst hym, and prouoked the moost hyest in the wyldernes.
78:19They tempted God in theyr hertes, and requyred meate for theyr lust.
78:20They spake agaynst God also sayenge: Shall God prepare a table in the wildernesse?
78:21He smote the stony rocke in dede, that the water gushed out, and the streames flowed withall: but can he geue bred also, or prouyde flesh for his people?
78:22When the Lord hearde thys, he was wroth: so the fyre was kyndled in Iacob, & ther came vp heuy dyspleasure agaynst Israel.
78:23Because they beleued not in God, and put not their truste in his helpe.
78:24So he commaunded the cloudes aboue, and opened the dores of heauen.
78:25He rayned downe Manna also vpon them, for to eate, and gaue them foode from heauen.
78:26So man dyd eate angels fode, for he sent them meate ynough.
78:27He caused the East wynd to blowe vnder the heauen, and thorow his power he brought in the south west wynde.
78:28He rayned flesh vpon them as thicke as dust, and fethered foules lyke as the sande of the see.
78:29He let it fall amonge their tentes euen rounde aboute their habytacyon.
78:30So they dyd eate, and were well fylled, for he gaue them their awne desyre. They were not disapoynted of their lust.
78:31But whyle the meate was yet in theyr mouthes: the heuy wrath of God came vpon them, & slewe the welthiest of them, yee, and smote downe, the chosen men that were in Israel.
78:32But for all this they synned yet more, and beleued not hys wonderous worckes.
78:33Therfore, their dayes dyd he consume in vanyte, and their yeares in trouble.
78:34When he slewe them, they sought hym, and turned them early and enquered after God.
78:35And they remembred that God was their strength, and that the hye God was their redemer.
78:36Neuerthelesse, they dyd but flatter hym wyth their mouth, and dyssembled with him in their tonge.
78:37For their herte was not whole wyth hym, nether contynued they stedfast in hys couenaunt.
78:38But he was so mercyfull, that he forgaue theyr mysdedes, and destroyed them not.
78:39Yee, many a tyme turned he hys wrath awaye, and wolde not suffre is whole dyspleasure to aryse.
78:40For he consydered that they were but flesh: and that they were, euen a wynde that passeth awaye, and commeth not agayne.
78:41Many a tyme dyd they prouoke him in the wyldernesse, and greued him in the deserte.
78:42They turned backe, & tempted God, & moued the holy one in Israel.
78:43They thought not of hys hand, and of the daye when he delyuered them from the hande of the enemye.
78:44How he had wrought hys myracles in Egypte, and his wondres in the felde of Zoan.
78:45He turned their waters into bloude, so that they myght not dryncke of the ryuers.
78:46He sent lyce amonge them, and deuoured them vp and frogges to destroye them.
78:47He gaue their frutes vnto the catyr pyller, and their laboure vnto the greshopper.
78:48He destroyed their vynes wt hayle stones, and their mulbery trees wyth the frost.
78:49He smote their catel also with haylestones, & their flockes with hote thonder boltes.
78:50He cast vpon them the furyousnesse of hys wrath, anger, displeasure and trouble, and sent euell angels among them.
78:51He made awaye to his indignacion, and spared not their soule from death, but gaue their lyfe ouer to the pestylence.
78:52And smote all the fyrst borne in Egypt, the moost principall and myghtyest in the dwellynges of Ham.
78:53But as for hys awne people, he lead them forth lyke shepe, and caryed them in the wyldernesse lyke a flocke
78:54He brought them out safely, that they shulde not feare, & ouer whelmed their enemyes with the see.
78:55And brought them within the borders of hys Sanctuary: euen to this mountayne, whych he purchased with hys ryght hande.
78:56He cast out the Heathen also before them, caused their lande to be denyded amonge them for an heritage, and made the trybes of Israell to dwell in their tentes.
78:57So they tempted and displeased the most hye God, and kepte not hys testimonyes.
78:58But turned their backes, and fell awaye lyke their forfathers, startynge asyde lyke a broken bowe.
78:59For they greued hym with their hyll alters, and prouoked him to displeasure wyth their ymages.
78:60When God hearde this, he was wroth, and toke sore dyspleasure at Israel.
78:61So that he forsoke the Tabernacle in Silo, euen the tent that he had pitched among men.
78:62He delyuered their power into captiuyte, and their bewtye into the enemyes hande.
78:63He gaue his people ouer also into the swerde, and was wroth wyth hys inherytaunce.
78:64The fyre consumed their yong men, and their maydens were not geuen to mariage.
78:65Their Preastes were slayne wt the swerde, and there were no wyddowes to make lamentacion.
78:66So the Lorde awaked as one out of slepe, and lyke a gyaunte refreshed wyth wyne.
78:67He smote his enemyes in the hynder partes, and put them to a perpetuall shame.
78:68He refused the tabernacle of Ioseph, and chose not the trybe of Ephraim.
78:69But chose the trybe of Iuda, euen the hyll of Sion which he loued.
78:70And there he buylded hys temple on hye, and layed the foundacion of it lyke the grounde, whych he hath made continually.
78:71He chose Dauid also his seruaunt, and toke him awaye from the shepe foldes.
78:72As he was folowinge the ewes greate with yonge ones, he toke hym, that he myght fede Iacob hys people, and Israel his enheritaunce. So he fed them with a faythfull and true hert, & ruled them prudently withall his power.

The Great Bible 1539

The Great Bible of 1539 was the first authorized edition of the Bible in English, authorized by King Henry VIII of England to be read aloud in the church services of the Church of England. The Great Bible was prepared by Myles Coverdale, working under commission of Thomas, Lord Cromwell, Secretary to Henry VIII and Vicar General. In 1538, Cromwell directed the clergy to provide "one book of the bible of the largest volume in English, and the same set up in some convenient place within the said church that ye have care of, whereas your parishioners may most commodiously resort to the same and read it."
