Matthew's Bible 1537
128:1 | The song of the steares. Blessed are all they that feare the Lord, & walke in his wayes. |
128:2 | For thou shalte eate the laboures of thyne owne handes: O well is the, happy art thou. |
128:3 | Thy wyfe shalbe as the frutefull vyne vpon the walles of thy house. Thy chyldren lyke the Olyue braunches rounde about thy table. |
128:4 | Lo, thus shal the man be blessed, that feareth the lorde. |
128:5 | The lord shall so blesse the out of Syon, that thou shalt se Hierusalem in prosperytie all thy lyfe longe. |
128:6 | Yea, that thou shalt se thy chylders chyldren, and peace vpon Israel. |
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.
