- 2 in which ye wandriden sum tyme aftir the cours of this world, aftir the prince of the power of this eir, of the spirit that worchith now in to the sones of vnbileue;
- 3 in which also we `alle lyueden sum tyme in the desiris of oure fleisch, doynge the willis of the fleisch and of thouytis, and we weren bi kynde the sones of wraththe, as othere men;
- 4 but God, that is riche in merci, for his ful myche charite in which he louyde vs,
- 5 yhe, whanne we weren deed in synnes, quikenede vs togidere in Crist, bi whos grace ye ben sauyd, and ayen reiside togidere,
- 6 and made togidere to sitte in heuenli thingis in Crist Jhesu;
- 7 that he schulde schewe in the worldis aboue comynge the plenteuouse ritchessis of his grace in goodnesse on vs in Crist Jhesu.
- 8 For bi grace ye ben sauyd bi feith, and this not of you; for it is the yifte of God,
- 9 not of werkis, that no man haue glorie.
- 10 For we ben the makyng of hym, maad of nouyt in Crist Jhesu, in good werkis, whiche God hath ordeyned, that we go in tho werkis.
- 11 For which thing be ye myndeful, that sumtyme ye weren hethene in fleisch, which weren seid prepucie, fro that that is seid circumcisioun maad bi hond in fleisch;
- 12 and ye weren in that time with out Crist, alienyd fro the lyuyng of Israel, and gestis of testamentis, not hauynge hope of biheest, and with outen God in this world.
- 13 But now in Crist Jhesu ye that weren sum tyme fer, ben maad nyy in the blood of Crist.
- 14 For he is oure pees, that made bothe oon, and vnbyndynge the myddil wal of a wal with out morter, enmytees in his fleisch;
- 15 and auoidide the lawe of maundementis bi domes, that he make twei in hym silf in to a newe man,

- 17 And he comynge prechide pees to you that weren fer, and pees to hem that weren niy;
- 18 for bi hym we bothe han niy comyng in o spirit to the fadir.
- 19 Therfor now ye ben not gestis and straungeris, but ye ben citeseyns of seyntis, and houshold meine of God;
- 20 aboue bildid on the foundement of apostlis and of profetis, vpon that hiyeste corner stoon, Crist Jhesu;
- 21 in whom ech bildyng maad waxith in to an hooli temple in the Lord.
- 22 In whom also `be ye bildid togidere in to the habitacle of God, in the Hooli Goost.

John Wycliffe Bible (c.1395) (wycliffe - 2.4.1)
2020-08-01English (enm)
The Holy Bible, containing the Old and New Testaments, with the Apocryphal books, in the earliest English versions made from the Latin Vulgate by John Wycliffe and his followers, c.1395
Source text https://en.wikisource.org/wiki/Bible_(Wycliffe)
John Wycliffe organized the first complete translation of the Bible into Middle English in the 1380s.
The translation from the Vulgate was a collaborative effort, and it is not clear which portions are actually Wycliffe's work.
Church authorities officially condemned the translators of the Bible into vernacular languages and called these heretics Lollards.
Despite their prohibition, revised versions of Wycliffite Bibles remained in use for about 100 years.
Wikisource attributes its source as the Wesley Center Online.
That in turn was derived from the Fedosov transcription on the Slavic Bibles site http://www.sbible.ru
The source text makes no use of archaic letters that were part of Middle English orthography.
The Latin letter Yogh [ȝ] was evidently replaced by the letter [y] in the Fedosov transcription.
The text is available under the Creative Commons Attribution-ShareAlike License.
Verse numbers were not used in either the earlier or later version of the Wycliffe Bible in the fourteenth century. Each chapter consisted of one unbroken block of text. There were not even any paragraphs. Hence whatever verse numbers we now have in modern editions have been added retrospectively by comparison with other English Bibles and the Latin Vulgate.
Two books found in the Vulgate, II Esdras and Psalm 151, were never part of the Wycliffe Bible.
Module build notes:
1. The Prayer of Manasseh has been separated from 2 Chronicles in order to avoid a critical versification issue.
cf. In Wikisource it was assigned as 2 Paralipomenon chapter 37.
2. The Letter of Jeremiah has been joined to Baruch as chapter 6 thereof.
3. The book order of Wycliffe's Bible differs from that of the Vulg versification used in this module.
4. There are now 313 notes in the Wikisource document.
5. The Wikisource text substantially matches that of the nine books in module version 1.0
6. Each of these five verses not in the Vulg versification was appended to the previous verse: Deut.27.27 Esth.5.15 Ps.38.15 Ps.147.10 Luke.10.43
7. There are also several verses without any text. Use Sword utility emptyvss to list these.- Encoding: UTF-8
