The Book of Joshua
Then Josua the son of Nun sent out of Settim two spies secretly saying: go and view the land and also Jericho. And they went, and came unto a harlots house named Rahab, and lodged there. And it was told the King of Jericho saying: Behold there came men in hither tonight, of the children of Israel, to spy out the country. And the King of Jericho sent unto Rahab saying: bring forth the men that are come to thee, which are entered into thine house: for they be come to search out all the land.
And the woman took the two men and hid them. And said, indeed there came men unto me but I know not whence they were. And about the time of the shutting of the gate when it was dark, they went out, whither they went I know not: but follow after them quickly and ye shall take them. And she brought them up upon the roof of the house, and hid them under flax (yet in the stalks) which she had lying abroad upon the roof. And the men pursued after them, the way to Jordan even unto the passage, and as soon as they which pursued after them were gone out, they shut the gates immediately.
And or ever they were asleep, she came up unto them upon the roof, and said unto the men: I know that the Lord hath given you the land, both because that the fear of you is fallen upon us, and because that the inhabiters of the land faint at your coming. For we have heard how the Lord dried up the water of the *redd sea before you, when you came out of Egypt, and what you did unto the two kings of the Amorites on the other side Jordan Sehon, and Og, which ye utterly destroyed. And as soon as we had heard these things, our hearts did faint. And there remained no more courage in any man for fear of your coming. For the Lord your God, he is the God in heaven above: and on the earth beneath.
Now therefore swear unto me by the Lord because I have showed you mercy, that ye shall also show mercy unto my fathers house and give me a true token. And that ye shall save alive, both my father, and my mother, my brethren and my sisters, and all that pertain unto them. And that ye shall deliver our souls from death.
And the men answered her, our lives for you to die, if you utter not this our communication. And so when the Lord hath given us the land, we will deal Mercifully and truly with thee. And then she let them down with a cord through the window. For her house stood in the town wall. And she dwelt in the town wall. And she said unto them, get you into the mountains, lest the followers meet you, and hide yourselves there three days, until the pursuers be returned, and then may ye go your ways.
And the men said unto her, we will be blameless of thy oath, which thou hast made us swear. Behold, when we come unto the land, thou shalt bind this purple threaded cord in the window, which thou lettest us down by. And thou shalt bring thy father, thy mother, thy brethren, and all thy fathers household, even into the house to thee. And then whosoever go out at the doors of thy house, into the street, his blood shall be upon his own head, and we guiltless. And whosoever shall be with thee in the house, his blood be upon our heads if any mans hand be upon him: And even so if thou utter these our words, we will be quit of thy oath which thou hast made us swear. And she said according unto your words so be it: and so sent them away, and they departed. And she bound the purple cord in the window.
And they departed and got them into the mountains, and there abode three days until the pursuers were returned. And the pursuers sought throughout all the way and found them not. And the two men returned and descended from the mountain and passed over, and came to Josua the son of Nun, and told him all that had chanced them. And they said unto Josua the Lord hath delivered into our hands all the land, for all the inhabiters of the country faint for fear of us.*redd: exact spelling ; old English meaning to clean up, clear out , rescue to save, save from burning, to free from or out of , to put in order, to bring out from disorder.
THE GOSPELL OF ST. JOHN Chpt 4
As soon as the Lord had knowledge, how the Pharisees had heard, that Jesus made and baptised more disciples then John (though that Jesus him self baptised not: but his disciples) he left Jewry, and departed again in to Galile. And it was so that he must needs go through Samaria. Then came he to a city of Samaria called Sichar, besides the possession that Jacob gave to his son Joseph. And there was Jacobs well. Jesus then wearied in his journey, sat thus on the well. And it was about the sixth hour: and there came a woman of Samaria to draw water. And Jesus said unto her: give me drink. For his disciples were gone away unto the town to buy meat. Then said the woman of Samaria unto him: how is it, that thou being a Jewe, askest drink of me, which am a Samaritan? for the Jewes meddle not with the Samaritans. Jesus answered and said unto her: if thou knewest the gift of God, and who it is that sayeth to thee give me drink, thou wouldest have asked of him, and he would have given thee water of life. The woman said unto him. Sir thou hast nothing to draw with, and the well is deep: from whence then hast thou that water of life? Art thou greater then our father Jacob which gave us the well, and he himself drank thereof, and his children, and his cattle?
Jesus answered and said unto her: whosoever drinketh of this water, shall thirst again. But whosoever shall drink of the water that I shall give him, shall never be more a thirst: but the water that I shall give him, shall be in him a well of water, springing up into everlasting life. The woman said unto him: Sir give me of that water, that I thirst not, neither come hither to draw. Jesus said unto her. Go and call thy husband, and come hither. The woman answered and said to him: I have no husband. Jesus said to her: Thou hast well said, I have no husband. For thou hast had five husbands, and he whom thou now hast, is not thy husband. That saidst thou truly.
The woman said unto him: Sir I perceive that thou art a Prophet. Our fathers worshipped in this mountain: and ye say that in Jerusalem is the place where men ought to worship. Jesus said unto her: woman believe me, the hour cometh, when ye shall neither in this mountain nor yet at Jerusalem, worship the father. Ye worship ye *wot not what: we know what we worship. For salvation cometh of the Jewes. But the hour cometh and now is, when the true worshippers shall worship the father in spirit, and in truth. For verily such the father requireth to worship him. God is a spirit, and they that worship him, must worship him, in spirit and truth.
The woman said unto him: I *wot well Messias shall come, which is called Christ. When he is come, he will tell us all things: Jesus said unto her: I that speak unto thee am he. And even at that point came his disciples, and marvelled that he talked with the woman. Yet no man said unto him: what meanest thou, or why talkest thou with her? The woman then left her waterpot, and went her way into the city, and said to the men. Come see a man which told me all things that ever I did. Is not he Christ? Then they went out of the city, and came unto him.
And in the mean while his disciples prayed him saying: Master, eat. He said unto them: I have meat to eat, that ye know not of. Then said the disciples between themselves: hath any man brought him meat? Jesus said unto them: my meat is to do the will of him that sent me. And to finish his work. Say not ye: there are yet four months, and then cometh harvest? Behold I say unto you, lift up your eyes, and look on the regions: for they are white already unto harvest. And he that reapeth receiveth reward, and gathereth fruit unto life eternal: that both he that soweth, and he that reapeth might rejoice together. And herein is the saying true, that one soweth, and another reapeth. I sent you to reap that whereon ye bestowed no labor. Other men laboured, and ye are entered into their labors.
Many of the Samaritans of that city believed on him, for the saying of the woman, which testified: he told me all things that ever I did. Then when the Samaritans were come unto him they besought him, that he would tarry with them. And he abode there two days. And many more believed because of his own words, and said unto the woman: Now we believe not because of thy saying: for we have heard him ourselves, and know that this is even indeed Christ the saviour of the world.
After two days he departed thence, and went away into Galile. And Jesus himself testified, that a Prophet hath none honour in his own country. Then as soon as he was come into Galile, the Galileans received him which had seen all the things that he did at Jerusalem at the feast. For they went also unto the feast day. And Jesus came again into Cana of Galile, where he turned water into wine.
And there was a certain ruler, whose son was sick at Capernaum. As soon as the same heard that Jesus was come out of Jewry into Galilee, he went unto him, and besought him, that he would descend, and heal his son: For he was even ready to die. Then said Jesus unto him: except ye see signs and wonders, ye cannot believe. The ruler said unto him: Sir come away or ever that my child die. Jesus said unto him: Go thy way, thy son liveth. And the man believed the words that Jesus had spoken unto him, and went his way. And *anon as he went on his way, his servants met him, and told him saying: thy child liveth. Then enquired he of them the hour when he began to amend. And they said unto him: Yesterday the seventh hour, the fever left him. And the father knew that it was the same hour in which Jesus said unto him: Thy son liveth. And he believed, and all his household. This is again the second miracle that Jesus did, after he was come out of Jewry into Galilee.
*wot (know) *anon (shortly)The Gospel of St John
And Jesus went unto mount olivet, and early in the morning came again into the temple and all the people came unto him, and he sat down and taught them. And the Scribes and the Pharisees brought unto him a woman taken in *advoutry, and set her in the midst and said unto him: Master, this woman was taken in advoutry, even as the deed was a doing. Moses in the law commanded us that such should be stoned. What say you therefore? And this they said to tempt him: that they might have, whereof to accuse him. Jesus stooped down, and with his finger wrote on the ground. And while they continued asking him, he lifted himself up, and said unto them: let him that is among you without sin, cast the first stone at her. And again he stooped down and wrote on the ground. And as soon as they heard that, they went out one by one, the eldest first. And Jesus was left alone, and the woman standing in the midst.
When Jesus had lifted up himself again, and saw no man, but the woman, he said unto her: Woman where are those your accusers? Has no man condemned you? She said: No man Lord. And Jesus said: Neither do I condemn you.
Go, and sin no more.
Then spoke Jesus again unto them saying: I am the light of the world. He that follows me, shall not walk in darkness: but shall have the light of life. The Pharisees said unto him: You bear record of your self, your record is not true. Jesus answered and said unto them: though I bear record of myself, yet my record is true: for I know from where I came and whither I go. But you cannot tell from where I come and whither I go. you judge after the flesh, I judge no man. And if I judge, my judgement is true. For I am not alone: but I and the father that sent me. It is also written in your law, that the testimony of two men is true. I am one that bear witness of myself, and the father that sent me, bears witness of me. Then said they unto him: where is your father? Jesus answered: you neither know me, nor yet my father. If you had known me, you should have known my father also. These words spoke Jesus in the treasury, as he taught in the temple, and no man laid hands on him, for his time was not yet come.
Then said Jesus again unto them: I go my way, and you shall seek me, and shall die in your sins. Whither I go, over there can you not come. Then said the Jewes: will he kill himself, because he says: whither I go, over there can you not come? And he said unto them: you are from beneath, I am from above. You are of this world, I am not of this world. I said therefore unto you, that you shall die in your sins. For except you believe that I am he, you shall die in your sins.
Then said they unto him, who are you? And Jesus said unto them: Even the very same thing that I say unto you. I have many things to say, and to judge of you. you and he that sent me is true. And I speak in the world, those things which I have heard of him. How be it they understood not that he spoke of his father. Then said Jesus unto them: when you have lift up on high the son of man, then shall you know that I am he, and that I do nothing of myself: but as my father has taught me, even so I speak: and he that sent me, is with me. The father has not left me alone, for I do always those things that please him.
As he spoke these words, many believed on him.
Then said Jesus to those Jewes which believed on him. If you continue in my words, then are you my very disciples, and shall know the truth: and the truth shall make you free. They answered him: We be Abrahams seed, and were never bond to any man: why say you then, you shall be made free?
Jesus answered them: Verily, verily I say unto you, that whosoever commits sin, is the servant of sin. And the servant abides not in the house for ever: But the son abides ever. If the son therefore shall make you free, then are you free indeed. I know that you are Abrahams seed: but you seek means to kill me, because my sayings have no place in you. I speak that I have seen with my father: and you do that which you have seen with your father. They answered and said unto him: Abraham is our father. Jesus said unto them. If you were Abrahams children you would do the deeds of Abraham. But now you go about to kill me, a man that have told you the truth which I have heard of God: this did not Abraham. you do the deeds of your father. Then said they unto him: we were not born of fornication. We have one father, which is God. Jesus said unto them: if God were your father, then would you love me. For I proceeded forth and come from God. Neither came I of myself, but he sent me. Why do you not know my speech? Even because you cannot abide the hearing of my words.
You are of your father the devil, and the lusts of your father you will do. He was a murderer from the beginning, and abode not in the truth, because there is no truth in him. When he speaks a lie, then speaks he of his own. For he is a liar, and the father thereof. And because I tell you the truth, therefore you believe me not.
Which of you can rebuke me of sin? If I say the truth, why do not you believe me? He that is of God, hears Gods words. you therefore hear them not, because you are not of God. Then answered the Jewes and said unto him: Say we not well that you are a Samaritane and have the devil? Jesus answered: I have not the devil: but I honour my father, and you have dishonored me. I seek not mine own praise: but there is one that seeks and judges.
Verily, verily I say unto you, if a man keep my sayings, he shall never see death. Then said the Jewes to him. Now know we that you have the devil. Abraham is dead, and also the Prophets: and yet you say, if a man keep my saying, he shall never taste of death. are you greater then our father Abraham, which is dead? and the Prophets are dead. Whom make you yourself?
Jesus answered: If I honour my self, mine honour is nothing worth. It is my father that honors me, which you say, is your God, and you have not known him: but I know him. And if I should say, I know him not, I should be a liar like unto you. But I know him, and keep his saying.
Your father Abraham was glad to see my day, and he saw it and rejoiced. Then said the Jewes unto him: you are not yet fifty years old, and have you seen Abraham? Jesus said unto them: Verily, verily I say unto you: *yer Abraham was, I am. Then took they up stones, to cast at him. But Jesus hid himself, and went out of the temple.
*advoutry: prefix "a" meaning not or without, devout: devotion; plain hearted to God, being devoted to something or some one else .in this case devoted to the flesh. see James 2 for adultery. *yer (before)
and the worthy man was given peace !!!
