• Janes wanted a learned oommissice of his owl,
who undertook a revision of the Bible. They did not at-
tempt • aim translation, bat merely a revision of the old
translations. He did net think there should be any unite-
smeary changes la the test, but those pongee which wen
not prone translation from the original et mild be altered.
The clergy of the church of England had no choice bot to
reed the peerages as they found them in the Bible, although
they might know them to be inorreet. Dr. Selwyn, of
Cambridge, had gins notice of • motion on this
gabfest to be brouht before Con•estion. In the
"Lib of Dr. ficholefield" as instance was gives where
the putting of a eonsa instead of a fall stop would render
the passage clearer ; end the lislinbwryA Review, in as
article oat" Paragraph Bibles," advocated the division of
the Bible into paragraph' instead of verso., as in the present
truslation. Is the sermon on The Religion of Comma
Things." preached by the Rey. Mr. Card, he took for hie
teat the following words, Be not slothful in business,"
which was a wrong truslation of the original Greek. The
word is the Greek version was owoudh, which siesta
of seal," sad not " business." The teat, therefore.
Auld rue, "be not Unwind la sea." It had
no ennui= with business or common things. Be not
slothful In beau's." might be a very good masts, bet it
was not what the apostle said. There was another pusses
in the "Bets of the Apostles" where the Apostle Paul says
beanies all things which are written in the law and la
the pasphau." This was eosin exact translation. It steak/
be " These meant which are according to the law, and are
written in the prophets"—meaning: thereby that he was a
believer in tradition wording, to the law, but the prophets
he took literally. The 7th vomits the 15th chapter of the
Epistle of John" was for along time printed in snail
type, to showat th it had been pot in by some interpolator.
Baia the bible printed in the reign of Ring James it was
printed is large type, so that any one would suppin it was
is the patina. There were other passages of a similar
kind. Is America a sthiety had been formed called the
Awed= Bible Union, which had for its object to past a
revised translation of the Bible, sad they had already gone
through a large portion of the GLA and New Testaments.
He might be asked why not form a voluntary society here,
sad bare the Bible traulsted in a proper.way. He thought
that it could sot be so well done in this country by a voles-
tary moiety üby the authority of the supreme power is the
state. The bible societies would oppose this, become their
binka woad have to be altered. But full notice would be
fain:ao them, and they might print off 100,000 copies foe
ties from stereotypes, by which time the new trace-
lotion would be ready for then. He did art expect to sue-
teed en the t oussion. Public opinion should be on
theta side they muvi din the matter. But the matte:
was of graft Imperleass ; and he believed that at no distant
*lrbil% email be taken up and carried. The bon. goals-
nen soneluded by 'moving the address.
It G GREY said the subject which the hoe. gentlemen
brought for end was a most important one, and he agreed
with his in the observation that the house would do
wrong if they moved in the salter egainat public opinion.
He believed that the address moved by the hon. gentleman
was ant in accordance with public opinion, and shot, if ear-
rise!, its 'Mot would he to create great slerm, to unsettle
opinions, and to lessen respect for the authorised vent= of
the scriptures. (Hear, hear.) No doubt that venios goo-
tabbed rens° error in transla'ion; there might he slight
verbal inacettraeles in it ; but, speaking of it as a whole, he
believed the Christian community of the as
were sea-
viand, net oily of the genial accuracy and fidelity with
whisk the Old sad New Testaments were translated, bat
that the parity, simplicity, and beauty of the language used
added to the love and reverent with which the Bible was
received. (Hear, hear.) The hon. gentleman said it waa
hard on a leaned clergyman of the church of England
to be obliged to read certain passages of the
Bible which he believed not to be horsily translated
flan the original; bat each a pima had lees reason to com-
plain than other', Nears he was not only at liberty, but
it was his duty to "spina and point cut the mincing of the
teat by a Gunnison of tte original languages. As the
hon. gentleman was not going to pros thell7oll9o, he would
not say tore than that he thought it um expedient to eater-
ten the question.
The motion was then withdrawn.
