Bishops

For God so loued the worlde, that he gaue his only begotten sonne, that whosoeuer beleueth in hym, shoulde not perishe, but haue euerlastyng lyfe.


Tyndale's New Testament

For} God so loved{loveth} the world, that he gave{hath given} his only son for the intent, that none that believe in him, should perish: But should have everlasting life.

 

Others:

"For God so loued the worlde, that he gaue his onely sonne, that who so euer beleueth in hi, shulde not perishe, but haue euerlastinge life." (MCB - 1535)

"For God so loued the worlde, that hee hath giuen his onely begotten Sonne, that whosoeuer beleeueth in him, should not perish, but haue euerlasting life." (GEN- 1587)

"For God so loved the world, as to give his only begotten Son: that whosoever believeth in him may not perish, but may have life everlasting." [RHE - 1582 (or D-R - 1610)]

"For God ʃo loued ye world, that he gaue his only begotten ʃonne: that whoʃoeuer beleeueth in him, ʃhould not periʃh, but haue euerlaʃting life." (KJ-1611)

Note that all these (except the KJ-1611, which I edited, as much as was possible on short notice) still have updated letter forms including the absence of the "long 's'" and the D-R is also that of updated spelling, even as I copied them, here.
