John Wycliffe Bible 1382

   

3:1And Y, britheren, myyte not speke to you as to spiritual men, but as to fleischli men;
3:2as to litle children in Crist, Y yaf to you mylk drynke, not mete; for ye myyten not yit, nether ye moun now, for yit ye ben fleischli.
3:3For while strijf is among you, whether ye ben not fleischli, and ye gon aftir man?
3:4For whanne summe seith, Y am of Poul, another, But Y am of Apollo, whethir ye ben not men? What therfor is Apollo, and what Poul?
3:5Thei ben mynystris of hym, to whom ye han bileuyd; and to ech man as God hath youun.
3:6Y plauntide, Apollo moystide, but God yaf encreessyng.
3:7Therfor nether he that plauntith is ony thing, nethir he that moistith, but God that yiueth encreessyng.
3:8And he that plauntith, and he that moistith, ben oon; and ech schal take his owne mede, aftir his trauel.
3:9For we ben the helperis of God; ye ben the erthetiliyng of God, ye ben the bildyng of God.
3:10Aftir the grace `of God that is youun to me, as a wise maistir carpenter Y settide the foundement; and another bildith aboue. But ech man se, hou he bildith aboue.
3:11For no man may sette another foundement, outtakun that that is sett, which is Crist Jhesus.
3:12For if ony bildith ouer this foundement, gold, siluer, preciouse stoonys, stickis, hey, or stobil, euery mannus werk schal be open;
3:13for the dai of the Lord schal declare, for it schal be schewid in fier; the fier schal preue the werk of ech man, what maner werk it is.
3:14If the werk of ony man dwelle stille, which he bildide aboue, he schal resseyue mede.
3:15If ony mannus werk brenne, he schal suffre harm; but he schal be saaf, so netheles as bi fier.
3:16Witen ye not, that ye ben the temple of God, and the spirit of God dwellith in you?
3:17And if ony defoulith the temple of God, God schal leese hym; for the temple of God is hooli, which ye ben.
3:18No man disseyue hym silf. If ony man among you is seyn to be wiys in this world, be he maad a fool, that he be wijs.
3:19For the wisdom of this world is foli anentis God; for it is writun, Y schal catche wise men in her fel wisdom;
3:20and eft, The Lord knowith the thouytis of wise men, for tho ben veyn.
3:21Therfor no man haue glorie in men.
3:22For alle thingis ben youre, ethir Poul, ether Apollo, ether Cefas, ether the world, ether lijf, ether deth, ether thingis present, ethir thingis to comynge; for alle thingis ben youre,
3:23and ye ben of Crist, and Crist is of God.

John Wycliffe Bible 1382

The Wycliffe Bible is the only Bible here that was not translated from the Textus Receptus. Its inclusion here is for the Bible's historic value and for comparison in the English language.

John Wycliffe, an Oxford professor produced the first hand-written English language Bible manuscripts in the 1380's. While it is doubtful Wycliffe himself translated the versions that bear his name, he certainly can be considered the driving force behind the project. He strongly believed in having the scriptures available to the people.

Wycliffe, was well-known throughout Europe for his opposition to the teaching of the organized Church, which he believed to be contrary to the Bible. With the help of his followers (called Lollards), Wycliffe produced dozens of English language manuscript copies of the scriptures. They were translated out of the Latin Vulgate, which was the only source text available to Wycliffe. The Pope was so infuriated by his teachings and his translation of the Bible into English, that 44 years after Wycliffe died, he ordered the bones to be dug-up, crushed, and scattered in the river.
