For this cause haue I called you, eue to se you, & to speake wt you: because yt for ye hope of Israel, I am bounde wt this cheyne.

But we wyl heare of ye what thou thinkest: for we haue herde of this secte, that euery where it is spoken agaynst.

For ye hert of this people is waxed grosse, & they heare hardly wt their eares: & their eyes haue they closed, yt they shulde not once se wt their eyes, & heare wt their eares, & vnderstode i their hertes, and be couerted, yt I mighte heale the.

First, I thanke my God thorow Iesus Christ for you all, that youre faith is spoken of thorow out all the worlde.

For God is my witnesse ( whom I serue in my sprete in the Gospell of his sonne) that without ceassynge I make mencion of you besekinge allwayes in my prayers,

For I longe to se you, that I mighte bestowe vpon you some spirituall gifte to stregth you

For I am not ashamed of the Gospell of Christ: for it is the power of God, which saueth all that beleue theron, the Iewe first & also the Greke:

for in it ye righteousnes that is of value before God, is opened, which cometh out of faith i to faith.

As it is wrytte: The iust shal lyue by his faith. For ye wrath of God is declared from heauen vpon all vngodlynes and vnrighteousnes of me,which witholde the trueth of God in vnrighteousnes:

because that it, which maye be knowne of God, is manifest with the. For God hath shewed it vnto the,

which turned the trueth of God vnto a lye, & worshipped and serued the creature more then the maker, which is blessed for euer. Amen.

Therfore God gaue the vp vnto shamefull lustes. For their wemen chaunged the naturall vse in to the vnnaturall:

Therfore canst thou not excuse thyselfe (O ma) who soeuer thou be that iudgest: for loke wherin thou iudgest another, thou condemnest thy selfe, in so moch as thou that iudgest, doest euen the same.

For we are sure that the iudgment of God is (acordinge to the trueth) ouer them that do soch.

For there is no respecte of personnes before God: Who so euer haue synned without lawe,

For before God, they are not righteous, which heare ye lawe: but they that do the lawe, shalbe iustified.

For yf the Gentyles which haue not the lawe, do of nature the thinges conteyned in the lawe, then they hauynge not the lawe, are a lawe vnto them selues,

and knowest his will: & for so moch as thou art enfourmed out of ye lawe,

For thorow you is the name of God euell spoken of amonge the Gentyles, as it is wrytten.

Therfore yf the vncircumcision kepe the righte thinges conteyned in the lawe, shal not his vncircumcision be counted for circumcision?
