Most of Golding's work consists of prose translations that were from Latin and French texts. A Calvinist, he translated contemporary Protestant leaders: Heinrich Bullinger, William, Prince of Orange, Theodore de Beze, and Philippe de Mornay. He translated also Leonardo Bruni's "History of the War Against the Goths", Froissart's "Chronicles" in Sleidan's epitome, and Aesop's fables. Further translations were: the "Commentaries" of Caesar (1563, 1565, 1590), the history of Junianus Justinus (1564), the theological writings of Niels Hemmingsen (1569) and David Chytraeus (1570), Theodore Beza's "Tragedie of Abrahams Sacrifice" (1575), the "De Beneficiis" of Seneca the Younger (1578), the geography of Pomponius Mela (1585), the "Polyhistor" of Gaius Julius Solinus (1587), Calvin's commentaries on the "Psalms" (1571), his sermons on the "Galatians" and "Ephesians", on "Deuteronomy" and the "Book of Job".
