For so we do believe and have learned out of the holy scriptures, that the father by himself is true and perfect god, the Son by himself is god, and the holy spirit by himself is god: and yet that they are not many but one only god Almighty: ¹of whom all things, by whom all things, and for whom all things are.

For so wee doe beleeue and haue learned out of the holie scriptures, that the father by himselfe is true and perfect god, the Sonne by himselfe is god, and the holie spirite by himselfe is god: and yet that they are not manie but one onelie god Almightie: ¹of vvhome all things, by vvhome all things, and for vvhome all things are.
