To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
This large number of instances of lasst uns is particularly noteworthy, there being not a single instance of another type. In the other portions of the Liibeck Bible which were copied from the Cologne Bible, the various types which occur there are reproduced almost without change. The next text is the Halberstadt Bible of 1522. The portion from Genesis to 1. Chron. 9, 3 is independent and contains 59 gen mr, 1 sollen, 3 wollen, 2 lasst uns. Subse- quently the Liibeck and Cologne Bibles are copi...ed, but from Jerem. to Maccab. is independent again, and here there are Digitized by Google — 25 — .36 gen tvir, 1 wir gen, 15 wollen. This forms quite a contrast to tlie independent portion of the Liibeck Bible, which, as was seen above, contains only lasst uns. We might therefore suspect that these portions of the Halberstadt Bible were not translated independently in 1522, but were taken from some older trans- lation of which the Ms. has not come down to us. But then it is to be expected that in a dialect where so many forms are current, various writers may prefer special forms.
