William Tyndale (1536) and Miles Coverdale (1568) Bible Translators


                                                           Psalm 121:1-2
I lift up my eyes 
to the Lord; 
from where is my help to come?
 My help comes from the Lord,
    the maker of heaven and earth.
                                         This looks like North County, 
but it is actually the hills around Jerusalem, the hills  
to which the Psalmist lifted his eyes...
      
       It was Cloverdale’s translation of the  Psalms that Archbishop Cranmer chose to use in  the Book of Com-mon Prayer,  1549.  the progenitor of our and all Anglican BCPs. 


         Reveal to us 
your saving Word, 
as we read & study 
the Scriptures, and
 hear them calling us to repentance & life 
             -Collect of the day
