XT R EAT and maiiifold were the BleJJings (mofi dread Sovereign) which Ahnighty God,
\^ t/ie Father of all 3Jercies, ljejhnue.1 upon us t/ie People of England, w/ien firft he J'ent
Your Majefl-fi Royal Perfon to rule and reign over us. For whereas it was the Expec-
. tation of many^ who wijhed not well unto our Sioii, t/iat, upon the fetti)ig of that bright Occi-
dental Star Queen Elifabeth, of inojl happy iMemory, fotns thick and palpable Clouds of Dark-
nefs would fo have overihadmved this Land^ t/uit Men Jliould /urve been in doubt wliicli Way they
were to walk, and tliat it Jliould hwdly be known who was to dired the unfettled State ; the
Appearance if Your Mnjejly, as of the Sun in his Sti-ength, inflantly dijpelled thofe fuppofecl
and furrnifed Dlijls, aridgaroewito all that were well-abetted exceeding Cauj'e of Comfort ; ej'pe-
daily when we beheld tlie Government ejiablijhed in Your Highnefs and Your hopeful Seedy by ait
tmdotibtcd Title, and this alfo accompanied with Peace and Tranquillity at Home a: id Abroad.
But, among f} all our Joys, tliere was no one that more filed our Hearts, tJian the bleffei
Continiumce of the Preaching of Godi faa-ed Word amongft us ; which is that inejhrnable
Treafure, which excelleth all tfie Riches of the Earth ; becauje the Fruit thereof extendetk it-
felf, not only to the Time f pent in tliis tra^ifitory World, but direcicth and dijpofeth Men Wii»
that eternal Happinefs w/u'ch is above in Heaven.
Then not to fujfer this to fall to the Ground, but rather to take it up, and to continue it iit
i/mt State wherein tlie famous Predeceffor of Your Highnefs did leavi it ; nay, to go fonvard
with the Confidence cnid Refoluiion of aMcui in maiiiiaining thi Truth ofChrijl, and propagcU-
iffg it far and near, is that which liath fo bound euid firmly knit tlie Hearts of all Your Majejiy"'*
loyal and religious People unto Yoti, that Your very Naitte is precious among tliem; their Eye,
dnth bch'^ld You with Ctn/ifort, and they blefs You in their Hearts, as tliat fandified Perfon, who^
r God, is tlie iiwnediate Author of their titte Happiiiefs. And this their Contentment dotft
iiminifh or decay, but every Day increafeth and taketh Strength, when ttiey obferve, that
the Zeal of Your iMajefiy towards tlie Houje of God doth not J lack or go backivard, but is more
and mnre kindled, ma^iifejh'/ig itfelf Abroad in tlie farthefi Parts of Chrirtendom, by writing
in Defence of tlie Truth, (wliich hath given fuch a Blow unto that Mcui of Sin, as will not be.
healed, ) and every Day at Home, by religious ojid leca-ned Dijcourfes, by frequei.ting tlia
Houfc of God, by hearing the Word preached, by cherijhi/.g tlie Teacliers thereof, by caring for
the Citurch, as a m»J} tender euid loving imrfiKg Father.
There are infinite Arguments of tliis right Clirijh'an and religious Affeiiion in Your Majefly /
but none is more forcible to declare it to otiiers, than the vtlieme)it cuid perpetuated Defire of
tlie accomplijhing andpublijliiug of this IVork, wliich now, with all Hwriility, we prefent unto
Your Majejty. For when Your Highnefs had once, out of deep Judgment, apprehended hovj
â– convenient it was, that, out of tlie Original [acred Tongues, togetlier with comparing of tlie
Labours, both in our own and otiier foreign Languages, of many wortlry Men who we.-.t before

Your Mqjejly did never dcfijl to urge evid to excite thoj'e to whom it was conviiended, tliat tlut
Work might be haj}e)ied, and that the Bufuiefs might be expedited in fo decent a Manner, as a
Matter of J'uch Impottance might jiijlly require.
And now, at lajl, by the Mercy of God, and the Continuance of our labours, it being brouglit
tinto fuch a Conclufion, as tliat we have great Hope, that the Church 0/ England , tail reap
good fruit thereby .,- we hold it our Duty to offer it to your Majejty, not only as to our Ki,.g and
Sovereig,^, but as to the principal Mover a;. d Author of the work; humbly cravihgofYrurm^Ji
facrad MajeJly, that, fince Tilings of this Qiuility have ever been J'ubjed t'j the CenJ'ures ,f ill-
A 2 m:(Uiinz
vieaning and dlfcojitented Perfons, it may receive Apprebation and Pafnmage ft-om fo learmd
a>id judicious a Prijice as Your High; :efs is; zvhffe Allowance andAccepta>ice of our Labours
Jliall more honour and ei-icourage us, than all the Cahumaations, and hard Interpretations of
other men, (liall difmay us. So that if^ on the one fide, we Jliall be traduced by Popijii Perfons
at Home or Abroad., -who therefore will malign us, becaufe we are poor lajh-umei.ts to make
Gods holy truth to be yet more and rnore known unto tlie People, whom they defire fill to keep
in Ignorance and Darknefs ; or if, on the other Side, we Jjiall be maligned by felf-conceited
Brethren., who run their own Ways, and give liking unto nothing but what is framed by thejii'
felves., and hamimred on their Anvil ; we may reft fecure, fuppoi-ted within by the Truth and
Innocency of a good Coitfcience, having walked the Vvays of Simplicity and Integrity, as before
the Lord ; and Juftained without by the p ozverful Protection of Your Majeflfs Grace and Favour,
"^vhich will ever give Counte7ianceto hone ft and Chriftian E}uieavours, againft bitter Cenfures, and
uncharitable Imputations.
The Lord of Heaven and Earth blefs Your Majefly with many and happy Days ; thai, as his
heavenly Hand hath enriched Your Highnefs with many lingular and e xtraordinary Graces, fo
You may be the Wokder of the World in this latter Age, for Happinefs and true Felicity, to the

3 And f in procefs of time it came
to pafs, that Cain brought of the frnit
of the ground an offering unto the
Lord.
4 And Abel, he alfo brought of the
fulilings of his, f flock, and of the fat

unto Abel, and to his offering :
5 But urito Cain, and to his olfering,
he had not refpeft. And Cain was ve-
ry wroth, '' and his countenance fell.
6 And the Lord faid unto Cain,

from thy hand.
12 W hen thou tilleft the groimd,
it fhall not henceforth yield unto thee
her ftrength. A fugitive and a vaga-
bond flialt thou be in the earth.
13 And Cain faid unto the Lord,
II My punifliment /y greater than I
can bear.
14 Behold, thou haft driven me out
this day from the face of the earth :
and fVom thy face fliall I be hid ; and
I fhall be a fugitive and a vagabond
in the earth : and it fhall come to pafs,
^ that every one that findeth me fliall

. 15 And the Lord faid unto him,
Tlierefore, whofoever flayeth Cain,
vengeance ihall be taken on him ^ fe-
ven-fold. And the Lord fet a mark
upon Cain, left any finding him fhould

9 t Then fpake the chief butler
unto Pharaoh, faying, I do remem-
ber my faults this day.
10 Pharaoh was wroth with his
fervants, ^ and put me in ward in the
captain of the guards houfe, b«tkmey
and the chief baker.
1 1 And we dreamed a dream in one
night, I and he : we dreamed " each
man according to the interpretation

1 2 And there was there with us a

18 And behold, there came up out

24 And the thin ears devoured the

that could declare it unto me.
25 f Aim! Jofeph faid unto Pha-
raoh, The dream of Pharaoh is one:
God hath {hewed Pharaoh what he
is about to do.
26 The feven good kine are feven
years; and the feven good ears ars
feven years : the dream is one.
27 And the feven thin and ill-fa-
voured kine, that came up after them,
are feven years ; and the feven empty
ears, blafted with the eaft-wind, fliall
be f feven years of famine.
28 This is the thing which I have
fpnken vmto Pharaoh : what God ii
about to do, he flieweth unto Pharaoh.
29 Behold, there come feven years
of great plenty throughout ail the
land of Egypt.
30 And there {hall arife, after them,
feven years of famine ; and all the
plenty ihall be forgotten in the land
of E.gypt : and the famine fliall con-
fume the land.
31 And the plenty fliall not be
known in the land, by reafon of that
famine following : for it j}iall be veiy
-j- grievous. t'^.'^''*
32 And for that the dream was ""'''*'
doubled imto Pharaoh twice ; it is
becaufe the thing is || eftabliflied by II or, w;*.
God, and God will fliortly bring itS^Z'^
to pafs.
33 Now, therefore, let Pharaoh
look out a man difcreet and wife,
and fet him over the land of Egypt.
34 Let Pharaoh do this, and let him
appoint II officers over the land, and 12^-^^^^
take up the fifth part of the land of
Eg>'pt, in the feven plenteous years.
35 And let them gather all the
food of thofe good years that come,^
and lay up com luider the hand of
Pharaoh, aud let tlieni keep food ia
the cities.
36 And that food fliall be for ftore
to the land, againll the feven years
of famine, which {hall be in the land
of Egypt; that the land f perhli not ^'^'^J^j^
through the famine.
37 ^I And the thing was good in
the eyes of Pharaoh, and in the eyes
of all his fervants.
38 And Pharaoh faid unto his fer-
vants, Can we 'awAJuch a one as this is,
a man ^ in whom the fpirit of God isP f^^y^'
39 And Pharaoh faid unto Jofeph, i)ln. j. im

44 And Pharaoh faid unto Jofeph,

no man lift up his hand or foot in all
the land of Egypt.
45 And Pharaoh called Jofephs
name Zaphnath-paaneah ; and he
gave him to w ife Afenath, the daugh-
ter of Poti-pherah i( prieil of On : and
Jofeph went out over all the land of
Egypt.
46 ^ And Jofeph ivns thirty years
old, when he ilood before Pharaoh
king of Egypt. And Jofeph went out
from the prefence of Pharaoh, and
went throughout all the land of
Egypt.
47 And in the feven plenteous years
the earth brought forth by handfiils.
48 And he gathered up all the food
of the feven years, whicli were in the
land of Egypt, and laid up the food
in the cities: the food of the field
which ivm round about every city,
laid he up m the fauie.
49 And Jofeph gathered corn as
the fand of the fea, very much, until
he left numbering ; for // was with-
out number.
50 "And unto Jofeph were born

came; which Afenath, the daughter

To-morrow is " the relt of the holy
fabbath unto the Lord : bake that
which ye will bake to-day, and feethe
that ye will feethe ; and that which
remaineth over, lay up for you to be
kept until the morning.
24 And they laid it up till the
morning, as Mofes bade ; and it did
not ftink, neither was there any worm
therein.
25 And Mofes faid. Eat that to-
day; for to-day is a fibbath unto the
Lord : to-day ye Ihall not find it in
the field.
26 Six days ye fhall gather it ; but,
on the feventh day, which is the fab-
bath, in it there ihall be none.
27 ^ And it came to pafs, that
there went out fojjie of the people
on the feventh day for to gather, and
they found none.
28 And the Lord faid xmto Mo-
fes, HoM' long refufe ye to keep my
commandments, and my laws ?
29 See, for that the Lord hatli
given you the fabbath, therefore
he giveth you, on the fixth day,
the bread of two days : abide ye,
every man in his place ; let no man
go out of his place on the feventh
day.
30 So the people refted on the fe-
venth day.
31 And the houfe of Ifrael called
the name thereof Manna : and ^ it ^j^"""**
was like coriander-feed, white ; and
the tafte of it was like wafers mads
with honey.
32 "H And Mofes faid. This is the
thing M'hich the Lord command-
eth. Fill an omer of it to be kept
I'or your generations ; that they may
fee the bread wherewith I have
fed you in the wildernefs., when I
brouglit you forth from the land of

34 As the Lord commanded Mo-

8 But if he be poorer than thy efli-
mation ; then he fliall prefent himfelf

that vowed fhall the priefl: value him.
9 And if it be a beaft whereof nien

Loud fiiall be holy.
10 He fliall not alter it, nor change
5t, a good for a bad, or a bad for a

beaft for beail ; then it, and the ex-
change tliereof, fliall be holy.
1 1 And if it be any unclean beafl,
of which they do not offer a facrifice
imto the Lord ; then he fliall pre-
fent the beaft before the prieft :

4 And Mofes fpake unto the chil-

5 And they kept the paflover on the
fourteenth day of the lirll month at e-

ing to all that the Lord commanded
JVIofes, fo did the children of Ifrael.
6 1] And there were certain men
wh® were '' defiled by the dead body
of a man, that they could not keep
the paflover on that day ; and they
came before Mofes, and before Aa-

7 And thofe men faid unto him,
We are defiled by the dead body of a
nian ; wherefore are we kept back,
that we may not offer an offering of
the Lord in his appointed feafon
among the children of Ifrael .-'
8 And Mofes faid unto them, Stand
ftill, and I will hear what the Lord
will command concerning you.
9 ^ And the Lord fpake unto Mo-

1 6 So it was alway : the cloud co-

1 7 And when the cloud was takea
up from the tabernacle ; then, after
that, the children of Ifrael iom'ney-
ed : and in the place wher» the cloud
abode, there the children of Ifrael
pitched their tents.
18 At the commandment of the
Lord the children of Ifrael journey-

Lord they pitched : ' as long as the i ' cor.
cloud abode upon the tabernacle,
they refted in the tents.
1 9 And when the cloud -j- tarried long t ^^'^_-
upon the tabernacle many days, then ^"' "''
the children of Ifrael kept the charge
of the Lord, and journeyed not.
20 Andyo it was, when the cloud
was a few days upon the tabernacle ;
according to the commandment of
the Lord they abode in their tents,
and according to the commandment
of the Lord they journeyed.
2 1 And Jo it was, when tlie cloud

and that the cloud was taken up in the "**"
morning, then they journeyed -. whe-
ther it was by day or by night that the
cloud was taken up, they journeyed.
22 Or zvhethsr it were two days, or
a month, or a year, that the cloud
taiTied upon the tabernacle, remain-

^ abode in their tents, and journeyed ^^f^f'^^j^
not : but when it was taken up they '
journeyed.
23 At the commandment of the

throughout your generations, that
among the children of Ifrael they
have no inheritance.
24. But the tithes of the children
of Ifrael, which they offer as an
heave-offering unto the Lord, 1 have
given to the Levites to inherit :

I have given you from them for your
inheritance, then ye fiiall offer up an
heave-offering of it for the Lord,
e'ven a tenth part of the tithe.
27 And this your heave-offering
fliall be reckoned unto you, as though
it were the corn of the threlliing-

28 Thus you alfo fhall offer aa
heave-offering unto the L o r d of all

Pharaoh, and unto all his fervants,

3 ' The great temptations which
thine eyes have feen, the llgns and

4 Yet '^ the Lord hath not given
you an heart to perceive, and eyes to

5 ' And I have led you forty years

not waxen old upon you, and thyfiioe
is not waxen old upon thy foot.
6 Ye have not eaten bread, neither
have you drunk wine, or ftrong drink ;

8 And we took their land, and
'' gave it for an inheritance unto the

9 ' Keep therefore the words of this
covenant, and do them, that ye may
profper in all that ye do.

ANd" Mofes went and (pake thefe

''Thou (halt not go over this Jordan.

4 And the Lord fhall do unto

5 And ^ the Lord Ihall give them
up before your face, that yc may do

7 "^I And IVIofes called nntojofluia,

Ifrael, Be ftrong and of a good cou-
rage : for tliou muit go with this

that they may hear, and that they

of this law ;
13 And that their children, whicli
have not known any things may hear
and learn to fear the Lord your God,
as long as ye live in the land wliither

14 *[ And the Lord laid unto Mo-.

went, and prefented themfelves in

rj And "^ the Lord appeared in ",^'',"''*

18 And I will furely hide my face
in that day, for all the evils whicli

:'2 1i Mofes therefore wrote this

24 t And it came to pafs, when
Mofes had made an end of writing

2 5 That Mofes commanded the
