Err not my dear brethren. ✚ Every good gift / & every parfait gift / is from above and cometh down from the father of light / with whom is no variableness / nether is he changed unto darkness. Of his own will begat §Che us with the word of life / that we should be the first fruits of his creatures.
Erre not my deare brethren. ✚ Every good gyfte / & every parfayt gyft / is from above and commeth doune frō the father of light / with whom is no variablenes / nether is he chaunged vnto dareknes. Of his awne will begat §Che vs with the worde of lyfe / that we shuld be the fyrst frutes of his creatures.
Wherefore dear brethren / let every man be swift to hear / slow to speak / and slow to wrath. For the wrath of man worketh not that which is righteous before God.
Wherfore deare brethren / let every man be swyfte to heare / slowe to speake / and slowe to wrath. For the wrath of man worketh not that which is ryghteous before God.
Wherefore lay a part all filthiness / all superfluity ⟨image 370⟩of maliciousness / and receive with meekness the word that is grafted in you / which is able to save your souls ✚. ✚ And see that ye be doers of the word & not hearers only / deceiving your own selves with sophistry §DFor if any hear the word / and do it not / he is like unto a man that beholdeth his bodily face in a glass. For as soon as he hath looked on him self / he goeth his way / & forgetteth immediately what his fashion was. But who so looketh in the perfect law of liberty / and continueth there in (if he be not a forgetful hearer / but a doer of y work) the same shall be happy in his deed.
