Wycliffe - Colossians - 3

3:1  Therfor if ye han risun togidere with Crist, seke ye tho thingis that ben aboue, where Crist is sittynge in the riythalf of God.

3:2  Sauere ye tho thingis, that ben aboue, not tho that ben on the erthe.

3:3  For ye ben deed, and youre lijf is hid with Crist in God.

3:4  For whanne Crist schal appere, youre lijf, thanne also ye schulen appere with hym in glorie.

3:5  Therfor sle ye youre membris, whiche ben on the erthe, fornycacioun, vnclennesse, letcherie, yuel coueitise, and aueryse, which is seruyse of mawmetis;

3:6  for whiche thingis the wraththe of God cam on the sones of vnbileue;

3:7  in whiche also ye walkiden sum tyme, whanne ye lyueden in hem.

3:8  But now putte ye awei alle thingis, wraththe, indignacioun, malice, blasfemye and foule word of youre mouth.

3:9  Nyle ye lie togidere; spuyle ye you fro the elde man with his dedes, and clothe ye the newe man,

3:10  that is maad newe ayen in to the knowing of God, aftir the ymage of hym that made hym;

3:11  where is not male and female, hethene man and Jew, circumcisioun and prepucie, barbarus and Scita, bonde man and fre man, but alle thingis and in alle thingis Crist.

3:12  Therfor ye, as the chosun of God, hooli and louyd, clothe you with the entrailis of merci, benygnite, and mekenesse, temperaunce, pacience;

3:13  and support ye echon other, and foryyue to you silf, if ony man ayens ony hath a querele; as the Lord foryaf to you, so also ye.

3:14  And vpon alle these thingis haue ye charite, that is the boond of perfeccioun.

3:15  And the pees of Crist enioye in youre hertis, in which ye ben clepid in o bodi, and be ye kynde.

3:16  The word of Crist dwelle in you plenteuousli, in al wisdom; and teche and moneste you silf in salmes, and ympnes, and spiritual songis, in grace synginge in youre hertis to the Lord.

3:17  Al thing, what euere thing ye don, in word or in dede, alle thingis in the name of oure Lord Jhesu Crist, doynge thankyngis to God and to the fadir bi hym.

3:18  Wymmen, be ye sugetis to youre hosebondis, as it bihoueth in the Lord.

3:19  Men, loue ye youre wyues, and nyle ye be bittere to hem.

3:20  Sones, obeie ye to youre fadir and modir bi alle thingis; for this is wel plesinge in the Lord.

3:21  Fadris, nyle ye terre youre sones to indignacioun, that thei be not maad feble hertid.

3:22  Seruauntis, obeie ye bi alle thingis to fleischli lordis, not seruynge at iye, as plesynge to men, but in symplenesse of herte, dredinge the Lord.

3:23  What euer ye doen, worche ye of wille, as to the Lord and not to men;

3:24  witinge that of the Lord ye schulen take yelding of eritage. Serue ye to the Lord Crist.

3:25  For he that doith iniurie, schal resseyue that that he dide yuele; and acceptacioun of persoones is not anentis God.
