Hardcover. 2nd impression. xxv, 476 p.; 24 cm. [First published 20 October 1983] For his principles of translating 12 `authorial units', see p. xvii-xix `Pray ye, than, this gate: Our Faither in heiven, hallowt be thy name; thy Kingdom come; thy will be dune on the yird, as in heiven. Gie us our breid for this incomin day; forgie us the wrangs we hae wrocht, as we hae forgien the wrangs we hae dree'd; an sey-us-na sairlie, but sauf us frae the Ill Ane. Gin ye forgie ither fowk their fauts, your heivenlie Faither will een forgie ye your fauts: but gin ye forgiena ithers, God winna forgie ye your fauts naitherins. [facsimile of ms. on dj, to this point] Whan ye fast, glumph-an-gloom-na like the hypocrites, at hings on lang,shilpitlike faces, at fowk may see they ar fastin. Atweill, I tell ye, they hae gotten aa the rewaird they'r tae get. Na, whan ye fast, pit oil on your heid an wash your face, sae at ye mayna be seen bi men tae be fastin, but onlie bi God' (p. 11) -- `William Laughton Lorimer (1885-1867) is almost the last and certainly the greatest of our translators.All the translators of the modern period played their part in the efforts to break free from the influence of English translations and to find a fitting form of Scots for biblical translation. In every respect Lorimer took their work a step further and his translation represents the culminating achievement and pinnacle of this endeavour. His parents, his two elder brothers and his elder sister all demonstrated a strong interest in languages and Lorimer followed their lead, spending most of his life teaching Greek in the universities at St Andrews and Dundee and becoming Professor of Greek at St Andrews in 1953.'
