translation_n which_o we_o allow_v not_o of_o but_o to_o the_o hebrew_n greek_a or_o latin_a with_o proportion_n and_o so_o when_o the_o word_n in_o those_o language_n have_v different_a

be_v not_o the_o worship_v but_o the_o religion_n of_o angel_n which_o be_v here_o forbid_a for_o so_o the_o vulgar_a translation_n have_v it_o which_o be_v ancient_a about_o twelve_o hundred_o year_n and_o how_o can_v any_o protestant_n though_o learned_a ever_o convince_v out_o of_o scripture_n that_o the_o word_n threskeia_fw-la be_v rather_o to_o be_v translate_v worship_v than_o religion_n see_v the_o greek_a word_n signify_v both_o and_o the_o scope_n and_o context_n of_o the_o apostle_n rather_o agree_v with_o religion_n then_o worship_v nay_o how_o shall_v the_o poor_a unlearned_a reader_n be_v certain_a that_o their_o translation_n be_v the_o word_n of_o god_n and_o the_o true_a and_o only_a signification_n of_o the_o word_n in_o the_o original_n in_o that_o place_n when_o the_o original_a word_n have_v sundry_a signification_n and_o further_o how_o shall_v they_o not_o have_v cause_n to_o doubt_v of_o and_o call_v in_o question_n the_o whole_a translation_n of_o the_o bible_n see_v they_o know_v not_o when_o the_o word_n in_o the_o original_n have_v different_a signification_n or_o only_a one_o and_o so_o may_v doubt_v whether_o the_o true_a signification_n and_o

place_n of_o controversy_n where_o their_o translatour_n use_v to_o take_v all_o advantage_n against_o we_o as_o i_o have_v show_v and_o yet_o neither_o of_o those_o two_o inconvenience_n toutch_v

so_o rest_v assure_v that_o their_o translation_n deliver_v the_o true_a signification_n of_o the_o word_n mean_v by_o the_o holy_a ghost_n in_o each_o particular_a place_n though_o the_o word_n in_o themselves_o be_v indifferent_a to_o many_o signification_n in_o the_o original_n now_o it_o appear_v evident_o that_o s._n paul_n speak_v of_o a_o religion_n or_o as_o the_o protestant_n will_v
