| 4:1 | Now the Spirit speaketh euidently, that in the latter times some shall depart from the faith, and shall giue heede vnto spirits of errour, and doctrines of deuils, |
| 4:2 | Which speake lies through hypocrisie, and haue their cosciences burned with an hote yron, |
| 4:3 | Forbidding to marrie, and commanding to abstaine from meates which God hath created to be receiued with giuing thankes of them which beleeue and knowe the trueth. |

| 4:2 | speaking lies in hypocrisy, having their own conscience seared with a hot iron, |
| 4:3 | forbidding to marry, and commanding to abstain from foods which God has created to be received with thanksgiving by those who believe and know the truth. |
