¶ The fyrste Chapter.
¶ He exhorteth Timothe to wayte vpon hys offyce:
namely, to se that nothynge be taught but Gods
worde. He sheweth also wherfore þe; lawe is good,
and telleth that Christ Iesus came in to þe; worlde,
to saue synners.

Christ, note by the commyssy&obar;
of God our sauyour, ∧ Lord
Iesus Christ, which is note our
hope.
Unto note Timothe hys naturall
sonne in the fayth.
noteGrace mercy and peace from God oure
father, ∧ fr&obar; þe; Lord Iesus Christ our Lorde.
As I besought the to abyde styll at Ephesus
(wh&ebar; I departed into note Macedonia) eu&ebar;
so do, that þu; c&obar;maunde some, that they folowe

is, note loue out of a note pure herte, and of a
good conscience, and of fayth vnfayned: fr&obar;
the whych thynges, because some haue erred,
they are turned vnto vayne i&abar;gelynge,
because they wolde be doctours of the lawe,
and yet vnderstande not what they speake,
nether wherof they affyrme.
&cross2; We knowe, that note the lawe is good,
yf a man vse it lawfully: knowynge thys, note
howe that the lawe is not geu&ebar; vnto a ryghteous
man, but vnto the vnryghteous and
disobedyent, to the vngodly and to synners,
to vnholy and vncleane: to murtherers of fathers
and murtherers of mothers, to manstears,
to note whormongers: to them that defyle

other thynge that is c&obar;trary to the holsome
doctryne, accordynge to the Gospell of the
glory of the blessed God, whych Gospell is
commytted vnto me.
C And I thanke Chryst Iesus oure Lorde,
whych hath made me str&obar;ge: for he counted
me true, and put me in offyce where as before
I was a blasphemer, note and a persecuter, ∧
a Tyraunt. But yet I obtayned mercy, because
I dyd it ignorauntly thorowe vnbelefe.
Neuerthelesse, þe; grace of oure Lorde was
exceadynge aboundaunt with fayth and loue,
whych is by Christ Iesu. &cross3;
&cross2; This is a true sayinge (and by all meanes
worthy to be receaued of vs) þt; note Chryst
Iesus came into þe; worlde, to saue synners,
of whom I am chefe. Not wythstandynge
for this cause optayned I mercy, that Iesus
Christ shulde fyrst shewe on me all longe paci&ebar;ce,
to declare an ensample vnto th&ebar; which
shulde beleue on him vnto eternall lyfe. So
then vnto God, kynge euerlastynge, immortall
note inuisyble, wyse onely, be honoure and
prayse for euer and euer.
D Amen.
Thys commaundement commyt I vnto
the sonne Timotheus &rhand; accordynge to the
prophesyes, whych &ibar; tyme past were prophesyed
of the, that thou in them shuldest fyght
a good fyght, hauynge fayth and good conscyence:
whych some haue put awaye from
them, and as concernynge fayth haue made
shypwracke. Of whose nombre is note Hymeneus
and note Alexander whom note I haue delyuered
vnto Sat&abar;, that they maye lerne not
to blaspheme.
