< Luke 18 >

1 He also spoke a parable to them that they must always pray and not give up,
dicebat autem et parabolam ad illos quoniam oportet semper orare et non deficere
2 saying, “There was a judge in a certain city who did not fear God and did not respect man.
dicens iudex quidam erat in quadam civitate qui Deum non timebat et hominem non verebatur
3 A widow was in that city, and she often came to him, saying, ‘Defend me from my adversary!’
vidua autem quaedam erat in civitate illa et veniebat ad eum dicens vindica me de adversario meo
4 He would not for a while; but afterward he said to himself, ‘Though I neither fear God nor respect man,
et nolebat per multum tempus post haec autem dixit intra se et si Deum non timeo nec hominem revereor
5 yet because this widow bothers me, I will defend her, or else she will wear me out by her continual coming.’”
tamen quia molesta est mihi haec vidua vindicabo illam ne in novissimo veniens suggillet me
6 The Lord said, “Listen to what the unrighteous judge says.
ait autem Dominus audite quid iudex iniquitatis dicit
7 Will not God avenge his chosen ones who are crying out to him day and night, and yet he exercises patience with them?
Deus autem non faciet vindictam electorum suorum clamantium ad se die ac nocte et patientiam habebit in illis
8 I tell you that he will avenge them quickly. Nevertheless, when the Son of Man comes, will he find faith on the earth?”
dico vobis quia cito faciet vindictam illorum verumtamen Filius hominis veniens putas inveniet fidem in terra
9 He also spoke this parable to certain people who were convinced of their own righteousness, and who despised all others:
dixit autem et ad quosdam qui in se confidebant tamquam iusti et aspernabantur ceteros parabolam istam
10 “Two men went up into the temple to pray; one was a Pharisee, and the other was a tax collector.
duo homines ascenderunt in templum ut orarent unus Pharisaeus et alter publicanus
11 The Pharisee stood and prayed by himself like this: ‘God, I thank you that I am not like the rest of men: extortionists, unrighteous, adulterers, or even like this tax collector.
Pharisaeus stans haec apud se orabat Deus gratias ago tibi quia non sum sicut ceteri hominum raptores iniusti adulteri vel ut etiam hic publicanus
12 I fast twice a week. I give tithes of all that I get.’
ieiuno bis in sabbato decimas do omnium quae possideo
13 But the tax collector, standing far away, would not even lift up his eyes to heaven, but beat his chest, saying, ‘God, be merciful to me, a sinner!’
et publicanus a longe stans nolebat nec oculos ad caelum levare sed percutiebat pectus suum dicens Deus propitius esto mihi peccatori
14 I tell you, this man went down to his house justified rather than the other; for everyone who exalts himself will be humbled, but he who humbles himself will be exalted.”
dico vobis descendit hic iustificatus in domum suam ab illo quia omnis qui se exaltat humiliabitur et qui se humiliat exaltabitur
15 They were also bringing their babies to him, that he might touch them. But when the disciples saw it, they rebuked them.
adferebant autem ad illum et infantes ut eos tangeret quod cum viderent discipuli increpabant illos
16 Jesus summoned them, saying, “Allow the little children to come to me, and do not hinder them, for God’s Kingdom belongs to such as these.
Iesus autem convocans illos dixit sinite pueros venire ad me et nolite eos vetare talium est enim regnum Dei
17 Most certainly, I tell you, whoever does not receive God’s Kingdom like a little child, he will in no way enter into it.”
amen dico vobis quicumque non acceperit regnum Dei sicut puer non intrabit in illud
18 A certain ruler asked him, saying, "Good Teacher, what shall I do to inherit consummate (aiōnios g166) life?"
et interrogavit eum quidam princeps dicens magister bone quid faciens vitam aeternam possidebo (aiōnios g166)
19 Jesus asked him, “Why do you call me good? No one is good, except one: God.
dixit autem ei Iesus quid me dicis bonum nemo bonus nisi solus Deus
20 You know the commandments: ‘Do not commit adultery,’ ‘Do not murder,’ ‘Do not steal,’ ‘Do not give false testimony,’ ‘Honor your father and your mother.’”
mandata nosti non occides non moechaberis non furtum facies non falsum testimonium dices honora patrem tuum et matrem
21 He said, “I have observed all these things from my youth up.”
qui ait haec omnia custodivi a iuventute mea
22 When Jesus heard these things, he said to him, “You still lack one thing. Sell all that you have and distribute it to the poor. Then you will have treasure in heaven; then come, follow me.”
quo audito Iesus ait ei adhuc unum tibi deest omnia quaecumque habes vende et da pauperibus et habebis thesaurum in caelo et veni sequere me
23 But when he heard these things, he became very sad, for he was very rich.
his ille auditis contristatus est quia dives erat valde
24 Jesus, seeing that he became very sad, said, “How hard it is for those who have riches to enter into God’s Kingdom!
videns autem illum Iesus tristem factum dixit quam difficile qui pecunias habent in regnum Dei intrabunt
25 For it is easier for a camel to enter in through a needle’s eye than for a rich man to enter into God’s Kingdom.”
facilius est enim camelum per foramen acus transire quam divitem intrare in regnum Dei
26 Those who heard it said, “Then who can be saved?”
et dixerunt qui audiebant et quis potest salvus fieri
27 But he said, “The things which are impossible with men are possible with God.”
ait illis quae inpossibilia sunt apud homines possibilia sunt apud Deum
28 Peter said, “Look, we have left everything and followed you.”
ait autem Petrus ecce nos dimisimus omnia et secuti sumus te
29 He said to them, “Most certainly I tell you, there is no one who has left house, or wife, or brothers, or parents, or children, for God’s Kingdom’s sake,
qui dixit eis amen dico vobis nemo est qui reliquit domum aut parentes aut fratres aut uxorem aut filios propter regnum Dei
30 who will not receive many times more in this time, and in the age (aiōn g165) to come, consummate (aiōnios g166) life."
et non recipiat multo plura in hoc tempore et in saeculo venturo vitam aeternam (aiōn g165, aiōnios g166)
31 He took the twelve aside and said to them, “Behold, we are going up to Jerusalem, and all the things that are written through the prophets concerning the Son of Man will be completed.
adsumpsit autem Iesus duodecim et ait illis ecce ascendimus Hierosolyma et consummabuntur omnia quae scripta sunt per prophetas de Filio hominis
32 For he will be delivered up to the Gentiles, will be mocked, treated shamefully, and spit on.
tradetur enim gentibus et inludetur et flagellabitur et conspuetur
33 They will scourge and kill him. On the third day, he will rise again.”
et postquam flagellaverint occident eum et die tertia resurget
34 They understood none of these things. This saying was hidden from them, and they did not understand the things that were said.
et ipsi nihil horum intellexerunt et erat verbum istud absconditum ab eis et non intellegebant quae dicebantur
35 As he came near Jericho, a certain blind man sat by the road, begging.
factum est autem cum adpropinquaret Hiericho caecus quidam sedebat secus viam mendicans
36 Hearing a multitude going by, he asked what this meant.
et cum audiret turbam praetereuntem interrogabat quid hoc esset
37 They told him that Jesus of Nazareth was passing by.
dixerunt autem ei quod Iesus Nazarenus transiret
38 He cried out, “Jesus, you son of David, have mercy on me!”
et clamavit dicens Iesu Fili David miserere mei
39 Those who led the way rebuked him, that he should be quiet; but he cried out all the more, “You son of David, have mercy on me!”
et qui praeibant increpabant eum ut taceret ipse vero multo magis clamabat Fili David miserere mei
40 Standing still, Jesus commanded him to be brought to him. When he had come near, he asked him,
stans autem Iesus iussit illum adduci ad se et cum adpropinquasset interrogavit illum
41 “What do you want me to do?” He said, “Lord, that I may see again.”
dicens quid tibi vis faciam at ille dixit Domine ut videam
42 Jesus said to him, “Receive your sight. Your faith has healed you.”
et Iesus dixit illi respice fides tua te salvum fecit
43 Immediately he received his sight and followed him, glorifying God. All the people, when they saw it, praised God.
et confestim vidit et sequebatur illum magnificans Deum et omnis plebs ut vidit dedit laudem Deo
