| 25:1 | Then answered Baldad the Suhite, & said: |
| 25:2 | Power & fear is wt him aboue, that maketh peace, sitting in his highnes |
| 25:3 | whose men of warre are innumerable, & whose light aryseth ouer all. |
| 25:4 | But how may a man compared vnto God, be iustified? Or, how can he be cleane that is borne of a woman? |
| 25:5 | Beholde, the mone shyneth nothinge in comparison to him, and the starres are vncleane in his sight. |
| 25:6 | Howe muche more then man, that is but corrupcion: & the sonne of man, whyche is but a worme? |
Matthew's Bible 1537
The Matthew Bible, also known as Matthew's Version, was first published in 1537 by John Rogers, under the pseudonym "Thomas Matthew". It combined the New Testament of William Tyndale, and as much of the Old Testament as he had been able to translate before being captured and put to death, with the translations of Myles Coverdale as to the balance of the Old Testament and the Apocrypha, except the Apocryphal Prayer of Manasses. It is thus a vital link in the main sequence of English Bible translations.
