1 God created man of the earth, and after his owne image
he made him.
2 And againe he turned him into it, and
conformable to himselfe clothed him note with strength.
3 He
gaue him a number of daies and time, and gaue him power of
those thinges, that are vpon the earth.
4 He put his feare ouer
al flesh, and he had dominion of beastes and fowles.
5 He
created of him an helper like to himself: he gaue them counsel,
-- --
and tongue, and eies, & eares, and hart to deuise: and he filled
them with the discipline of vnderstanding.
6 He created in
them the knowlege of the spirit, he filled their hart with
vnderstanding, and euil and good he shewed them.
7 He set
his eie vpon their hartes to shew them the great thinges of his
workes:
8 that they might praise the name of sanctification:
and glorie in his meruelous workes, that thy might declare
the glorious thinges of his workes.
9 He added note discipline
vnto them, and made them inherite the lawe of life.
10 He
made an euerlasting testament with them, & he shewed them
iustice and his iudgementes.
11 And their eie saw the glorious
thinges of his honour, and their eares heard the honour of his
voice, and he said to them: Beware of euerie vniust thing.
12 And he gaue them commandment euerie one concerning
his neighbour.
13 Their wayes are before him alwaies, they
are not hid from his eies.
14 Ouer euerie nation he appointed
a ruler.
15 And Israel was made the manifest portion of God.
16 And al their workes as the sunne in the sight of God: and
his eies without intermission looking on their wayes.
17 The
testamentes were not hid by their iniquitie, and al their iniquities
are in the sight of God.
18 The almes of a man is as a
seale with him, and shal preserue the grace of a man as the
apple of the eie:
19 And afterward he shal arise, and shal
render them reward, to euerie one vpon their head, and shal
turne into the inner partes of the earth.
20 But to the penitent
he hath geuen the way of iustice, and he hath confirmed them
that faile to susteine, and hath appointed to them the lot of
truth.
21 Turne to our Lord, and forsake thy sinnes:
22 pray
before the face of our Lord, and diminish offences.
23 Returne
to our Lord, and turne away from thine iniustice, and hate
excedingly abomination:
24 and know the iniustices and
iudgementes of God, and note stand in the lot of thy purpose, and
noteof praier of the most high God.
25 Goe into the partes of the
holie world, with the liuing, and them that geue praise to
God.
26 Tarie not in the errour of the impious, before death
confesse. From the dead as nothing, confession perisheth.
27 Thou shalt confesse liuing, aliue and in health thou shalt
confesse, and shalt praise God, and shalt glorie in his mercies.
28 How great is the mercie of our Lord, and his propitiation
to them that turne to him!
29 For al thinges can not be in men,
because the sonne of man is not immortal, and they haue
-- --
delighted in the vanitie of malice.
30 What is brighter then the
sunne? & it shal faile. Or what more wicked then that which
flesh and bloud hath inuented? and this shal be reproued.
31 He beholdeth the powre of the height of heauen: and al
men be earth and ashes.
