_________Friday collect
grant
that
we,
walk-
ing in
the way
of the cross,
may find it none other
than the way of life and peace
*William Tyndale
1495-1546,
who, for having the audacity to translate the Bible into the language of the people, was strangled and then for good measure burned at the stake, &
Miles Cloverdale
1488–1568
who finished the translation of The Great Bible of 1539. The Cloverdale translation of the psalms is largely the
one that appears in our Book of Com-
mon Prayer and is why they differs so
from biblical translations.
Give us a like passion to make the Scriptures accessible to people today & endow us with the gift of powerful & graceful expression
and with strength to persevere
