< Luke 17 >
1 And he said to his disciples, It is impossible for the stumbling-blocks not to come, but woe to him through whom they come!
Then sayde he to ye disciples it can not be avoyded but that offences will come. Neverthelesse wo be to him thorow whom they come.
2 It is better for him if a donkey-powered millstone were hanged about his neck, and he were thrown into the sea, than that he should cause one of these little ones to stumble.

3 Take heed to yourselves. And if thy brother should sin against thee, rebuke him, and if he repents, forgive him.
Take hede to youre selves. If thy brother trespas agaynst the rebuke him:
4 And if he should sin against thee seven times in the day, and seven times in the day turn back, saying, I repent, thou will forgive him.

5 And the apostles said to the Lord, Increase faith for us.
And the apostles sayde vnto the Lorde: increase oure faith.

And the Lorde sayde: yf ye had faith lyke a grayne of mustard sede and shuld saye vnto this sycamine tree plucke thy selfe vp by the rootes and plant thy selfe in the see: he should obey you.
7 But which of you having a bondman plowing or feeding livestock, who, when he comes in from the field, will straightaway say, After coming near, sit down?

8 Will he not rather say to him, Prepare what I may dine, and having gird thyself, serve me until I eat and drink, and after these things thou will eat and drink?
and wolde not rather saye to him dresse wherwith I maye sup and gyrde vp thy selfe and serve me tyll I have eaten and dronken: and afterwarde eate thou and drinke thou?
9 Does he have a favor for that bondman because he did the things that were commanded? I think not.
Doeth he thanke that servaunt because he dyd that which was commaunded vnto him? I trowe not.
10 Thus ye also, when ye did all the things that were commanded you, say, We are unprofitable bondmen, because we have done what we are obligated to do.
Soo lyke wyse ye when ye have done all thoose thinges which are commaunded you: saye we are vnprofitable servautes. We have done: ye which was oure duetye to do.
11 And it came to pass as he went to Jerusalem, that he was passing through the middle of Samaria and Galilee.

15 And one of them, when he saw that he was healed, turned back with a great voice glorifying God.

16 And he fell upon his face beside his feet giving him thanks. And he was a Samaritan.
and fell doune on his face at his fete and gave him thankes. And the same was a Samaritane.
17 And having answered, Jesus said, Were not the ten cleansed? But where are the nine?
And Iesus answered and sayde: are ther not ten clensed? But where are those nyne?
18 Were there none found who returned to give glory to God, except this foreigner?

When he was demaunded of ye pharises when the kyngdome of God shuld come: he answered them and sayde: The kyngdome of God cometh not with waytinge for.
21 nor will they say, Lo, here! or, Lo, there! For behold, the kingdom of God is inside of you.
Nether shall men saye: Loo here loo there. For beholde the kyngdome of God is with in you.
22 And he said to the disciples, The days will come when ye will long to see one of the days of the Son of man, and ye will not see it.
And he sayde vnto the disciples: The dayes will come when ye shall desyre to se one daye of the sonne of man and ye shall not se it.
23 And they will say to you, Lo, here! Lo, there! Do not depart, nor pursue.
And they shall saye to you: Se here Se there. Goo not after them nor folowe them
24 For just as the lightning, its flashing from under the sky to under the sky, illuminates, so will the Son of man be in his day.
for as the lyghtenynge that apereth out of the one parte of the heven and shyneth vnto the other parte of heven: Soo shall the sonne of man be in his dayes.

30 It will be according to these things in that day the Son of man is revealed.
After these ensamples shall it be in the daye when the sonne of man shall appere.
31 In that day, he who will be on the housetop, and his vessels in the house, let him not go down to take them up. And let him who is in the field likewise not return for the things behind.
At that daye he that is on the housse toppe and his stuffe in the housse: let him not come doune to take it out. And lykewyse let not him that is in the feldes turne backe agayne to that he lefte behynde.
33 Whoever will seek to save his life will lose it, and whoever will lose it will keep it alive.
Whosoever will goo about to save his lyfe shall loose it: And whosoever shall loose his lyfe shall save it.

Two shalbe also a grindynge to gedder: the one shalbe receaved and the other forsaken.
