King James Bible 1611

 

   

11:1Would to God you could beare with mee a little in my folly, & in deede beare with me.
11:2For I am iealous ouer you with godly iealousie, for I haue espoused you to one husband, that I may present you as a chaste virgin to Christ.
11:3But I feare lest by any meanes, as the Serpent beguiled Eue through his subtilty, so your mindes should bee corrupted from the simplicitie that is in Christ.
11:4For if he that commeth preacheth another Iesus whome wee haue not preached, or if yee receiue another spirit, which ye haue not receiued, or another Gospel, which ye haue not accepted, yee might well beare with him.
11:5For, I suppose, I was not a whit behinde the very chiefest Apostles.
11:6But though I be rude in speach, yet not in knowledge; but we haue bene throughly made manifest among you in all things.
11:7Haue I committed an offence in abasing my selfe, that you might be exalted, because I haue preached to you the Gospel of God freely?
11:8I robbed other Churches, taking wages of them to doe you seruice.
11:9And when I was present with you, and wanted, I was chargeable to no man: For that which was lacking to mee, the brethren which came from Macedonia supplied, and in all things I haue kept my selfe from being burthensome to you, and so will I keepe my selfe.
11:10As the trueth of Christ is in mee, no man shall stop mee of this boasting in the regions of Achaia.
11:11Wherefore? because I loue you not? God knoweth.
11:12But what I doe, that I wil doe, that I may cut off occasion from them which desire occasion, that wherein they glory, they may bee found euen as we.
11:13For such are false Apostles, deceitfull workers, transforming themselues into the Apostles of Christ.
11:14And no marueile, for Sathan himselfe is transformed into an Angel of light.
11:15Therefore it is no great thing if his ministers also bee transformed as the ministers of righteousnesse, whose end shall be according to their workes.
11:16I say againe, Let no man thinke mee a foole; if otherwise, yet as a foole receiue me, that I may boast my selfe a little.
11:17That which I speake, I speake it not after the Lord, but as it were foolishly in this confidence of boasting.
11:18Seeing that many glory after the flesh, I will glory also.
11:19For ye suffer fooles gladly, seeing ye your selues are wise.
11:20For ye suffer if a man bring you into bondage, if a man deuoure you, if a man take of you, if a man exalt himselfe, if a man smite you on the face.
11:21I speake as concerning reproch, as though we had bene weake: howbeit, wherein soeuer any is bold, I speake foolishly, I am bold also.
11:22Are they Hebrewes? so am I: are they Israelites? so am I: are they the seed of Abraham? so am I:
11:23Are they ministers of Christ? I speake as a foole, I am more: in labors more abundant: in stripes aboue measure: in prisons more frequent: in deaths oft.
11:24Of the Iewes fiue times receiued I forty stripes saue one.
11:25Thrice was I beaten with rods, once was I stoned: thrice I suffered shipwracke: a night and a day I haue bene in the deepe.
11:26In iourneying often, in perils of waters, in perils of robbers, in perils by my owne countreymen, in perils by the heathen, in perils in the citie, in perils in the wildernesse, in perils in the sea, in perils among false brethren,
11:27In wearinesse and painfulnesse, in watchings often, in hunger & thirst, in fastings often, in cold and nakednes.
11:28Besides those things that are without, that which commeth vpon me dayly, the care of all the Churches.
11:29Who is weake, and I am not weake? who is offended, and I burne not?
11:30If I must needes glory, I will glory of the things which concerne mine infirmities.
11:31The God and Father of our Lord Iesus Christ, which is blessed for euermore, knoweth that I lie not.
11:32In Damascus the gouernour vnder Aretas the King, kept the citie with a garison, desirous to apprehend mee.
11:33And through a window in a basket was I let downe, by the wall, and escaped his hands.
King James Bible 1611

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.
