John Wycliffe Bible 1382

   

7:1But of thilke thingis that ye han write to me, it is good to a man to touche not a womman.
7:2But for fornycacioun eche man haue his owne wijf, and ech womman haue hir owne hosebonde.
7:3The hosebonde yelde dette to the wijf, and also the wijf to the hosebonde.
7:4The womman hath not power of hir bodi, but the hosebonde; and the hosebonde hath not power of his bodi, but the womman.
7:5Nyle ye defraude eche to othere, but perauenture of consent to a tyme, that ye yyue tent to preier; and eft turne ye ayen to the same thing, lest Sathanas tempte you for youre vncontynence.
7:6But Y seie this thing as yyuyng leeue, not bi comaundement.
7:7For Y wole, that alle men be as my silf. But eche man hath his propre yifte of God; oon thus, and another thus.
7:8But Y seie to hem, that ben not weddid, and to widewis, it is good to hem, if thei dwellen so as Y.
7:9That if thei conteynen not hem silf, be thei weddid; for it is betere to be weddid, than to be brent.
7:10But to hem that ben ioyned in matrymonye, Y comaunde, not Y, but the Lord, that the wijf departe not fro the hosebonde;
7:11and that if sche departith, that sche dwelle vnweddid, or be recounselid to hir hosebonde; and the hosebonde forsake not the wijf.
7:12But to othere Y seie, not the Lord. If ony brother hath an vnfeithful wijf, and sche consenteth to dwelle with hym, leeue he hir not.
7:13And if ony womman hath an vnfeithful hosebonde, and this consentith to dwelle with hir, leeue sche not the hosebonde.
7:14For the vnfeithful hosebonde is halewid bi the feithful womman, and the vnfeithful womman is halewid bi the feithful hosebonde. Ellis youre children weren vncleene, but now thei ben hooli.
7:15That if the vnfeithful departith, departe he. For whi the brother or sistir is not suget to seruage in siche; for God hath clepid vs in pees.
7:16And wherof wost thou, womman, if thou schalt make the man saaf; or wherof wost thou, man, if thou schalt make the womman saaf?
7:17But as the Lord hath departid to ech, and as God hath clepid ech man, so go he, as Y teche in alle chirchis.
7:18A man circumcidid is clepid, brynge he not to the prepucie. A man is clepid in prepucie, be he not circumcidid.
7:19Circumcisioun is nouyt, and prepucie is nouyt, but the kepyng of the maundementis of God.
7:20Ech man in what clepyng he is clepid, in that dwelle he.
7:21Thou seruaunt art clepid, be it no charge to thee; but if thou maist be fre, `the rather vse thou.
7:22He that is a seruaunt, and is clepid in the Lord, is a freman of the Lord. Also he that is a freman, and is clepid, is the seruaunt of Crist.
7:23With prijs ye ben bouyt; nyle ye be maad seruauntis of men.
7:24Therfor ech man in what thing he is clepid a brothir, dwelle he in this anentis God.
7:25But of virgyns Y haue no comaundement of God; but Y yyue counseil, as he that hath mercy of the Lord, that Y be trewe.
7:26Therfor Y gesse, that this thing is good for the present nede; for it is good to a man to be so.
7:27Thou art boundun to a wijf, nyle thou seke vnbyndyng; thou art vnboundun fro a wijf, nyle thou seke a wijf.
7:28But if thou hast takun a wijf, thou hast not synned; and if a maidun is weddid, sche synnede not; nethelesse siche schulen haue tribulacioun of fleisch.
7:29But Y spare you. Therfor, britheren, Y seie this thing, The tyme is schort. Another is this, that thei that han wyues, be as thouy thei hadden noon;
7:30and thei that wepen, as thei wepten not; and thei that ioien, as thei ioieden not; and thei that bien, as thei hadden not;
7:31and thei that vsen this world, as thei that vsen not. For whi the figure of this world passith.
7:32But Y wole, that ye be without bisynesse, for he that is without wijf, is bisi what thingis ben of the Lord, hou he schal plese God.
7:33But he that is with a wijf, is bysy what thingis ben of the world, hou he schal plese the wijf, and he is departid.
7:34And a womman vnweddid and maidun thenkith what thingis ben of the Lord, that sche be hooli in bodi and spirit. But sche that is weddid, thenkith what thingis ben of the world, hou sche schal plese the hosebonde.
7:35And Y seie these thingis to youre profit, not that Y caste to you a snare, but to that that is onest, and that yyueth esynesse, with outen lettyng to make preieris to the Lord.
7:36And if ony man gessith hym silf to be seyn foule on his virgyn, that sche is ful woxun, and so it bihoueth to be doon, do sche that that sche wole; sche synneth not, if sche be weddid.
7:37For he that ordeynede stabli in his herte, not hauynge nede, but hauynge power of his wille, and hath demed in his herte this thing, to kepe his virgyn, doith wel.
7:38Therfore he that ioyneth his virgyn in matrymonye, doith wel; and he that ioyneth not, doith betere.
7:39The womman is boundun to the lawe, as longe tyme as hir hosebonde lyueth; and if hir hosebonde is deed, sche is delyuered fro the lawe of the hosebonde, be sche weddid to whom sche wole, oneli in the Lord.
7:40But sche schal be more blessid, if sche dwellith thus, aftir my counsel; and Y wene, that Y haue the Spirit 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.
