of_o his_o knowledge_n faithful_o render_v the_o text_n and_o in_o all_o hard_a place_n most_o sincere_o expound_v the_o same_o but_o to_o make_v this_o the_o more_o evident_a i_o add_v further_o that_o they_o make_v the_o self_n same_o word_n sometime_o to_o signify_v one_o thing_n and_o at_o other_o time_n another_o thing_n as_o it_o best_o serve_v their_o purpose_n for_o example_n our_o

of_o such_o example_n see_v more_o in_o the_o sixth_o chapter_n before_o beside_o this_o although_o they_o undertake_v to_o translate_v the_o hebrew_n text_n of_o the_o old_a testament_n and_o the_o

interpretation_n of_o holy_a scripture_n for_o this_o be_v evident_a because_o there_o be_v but_o one_o true_a word_n of_o god_n which_o according_a to_o truth_n admit_v not_o opposite_a

reject_v one_o another_o translation_n and_o interpretation_n and_o also_o allege_v scripture_n for_o their_o different_a doctrine_n they_o can_v therefore_o all_o be_v consonant_n to_o the_o true_a

of_o they_o without_o all_o doubt_n have_v not_o build_v upon_o divine_a authority_n which_o can_v be_v the_o ground_n of_o error_n but_o upon_o their_o own_o judgement_n and_o see_v that_o the_o warrant_v which_o they_o claim_v from_o god_n of_o all_o of_o they_o be_v the_o same_o and_o their_o ground_n alike_o we_o may_v well_o infer_v that_o none_o of_o they_o build_v upon_o any_o other_o more_o sure_a foundation_n add_v unto_o this_o that_o the_o self_n same_o sectary_n oftentimes_o upon_o further_a read_v study_n and_o knowledge_n change_v their_o translation_n and_o interpretation_n of_o holy_a scripture_n which_o be_v apparent_a by_o the_o diverse_a edition_n of_o the_o bibles_n and_o other_o their_o work_n in_o which_o scripture_n be_v allege_v and_o interpret_v and_o of_o

yet_o by_o the_o judgement_n of_o the_o best_a it_o be_v faulty_a of_o this_o follow_v not_o seldom_o a_o change_n of_o belief_n and_o a_o difference_n from_o themselves_o in_o religion_n which_o in_o the_o next_o chapter_n i_o will_v prove_v to_o have_v fall_v out_o in_o their_o first_o captain_n themselves_o and_o this_o be_v a_o invincible_a argument_n see_v that_o the_o scripture_n remain_v always_o the_o self_n same_o to_o prove_v that_o they_o vary_a build_v only_o upon_o their_o own_o fancy_n and_o be_v never_o certain_a that_o they_o have_v attain_v to_o the_o truth_n but_o this_o will_v be_v most_o apparent_a to_o he_o that_o shall_v set_v before_o his_o eye_n the_o manner_n of_o proceed_v of_o our_o say_a learned_a sectary_n in_o their_o discourse_n or_o disputation_n with_o their_o adversary_n for_o do_v they_o in_o such_o conference_n admit_v the_o text_n of_o holy_a scripture_n as_o a_o supreme_a judge_n of_o all_o controversy_n concern_v matter_n of_o religion_n

desirous_a to_o have_v all_o difficulty_n decide_v yet_o in_o very_a truth_n it_o be_v not_o so_o as_o every_o man_n may_v well_o judge_v because_o the_o letter_n of_o scripture_n oftentimes_o do_v not_o sufficient_o interpret_v itself_o and_o they_o will_v admit_v and_o allow_v of_o no_o other_o translation_n or_o interpretation_n but_o their_o own_o let_v we_o declare_v this_o a_o little_a more_o at_o large_a it_o be_v not_o unknown_a that_o the_o catholic_n receive_v as_o canonical_a the_o hebrew_n and_o greek_a text_n as_o well_o as_o they_o and_o consequent_o those_o very_a place_n either_o in_o hebrew_n greek_n or_o both_o which_o they_o allege_v to_o establish_v their_o doctrine_n opposite_a to_o the_o belief_n of_o the_o catholic_a church_n yea_o the_o catholic_n attribute_v
