Luke 6
1 Now it came to pass on a sabbath, that he was going through the grainfields; and his disciples plucked the ears, and did eat, rubbing them in their hands.
And it came to passe on a second solemne Sabbath, that hee went through the corne fieldes, and his disciples plucked the eares of corne, and did eate, and rub them in their hands.
2 But certain of the Pharisees said, Why do ye that which it is not lawful to do on the sabbath day?
And certaine of the Pharises sayde vnto them, Why doe ye that which is not lawfull to doe on the Sabbath dayes?
3 And Jesus answering them said, Have ye not read even this, what David did, when he was hungry, he, and they that were with him;
Then Iesus answered them, and said, Haue ye not read this, that Dauid did when he himselfe was an hungred, and they which were with him,
4 how he entered into the house of God, and took and ate the showbread, and gave also to them that were with him; which it is not lawful to eat save for the priests alone?
Howe he went into the house of God, and tooke, and ate the shewbread, and gaue also to them which were with him, which was not lawful to eate, but for the Priests onely?
5 And he said unto them, The Son of man is lord of the sabbath.
And he sayd vnto them, The Sonne of man is Lord also of the Sabbath day.
6 And it came to pass on another sabbath, that he entered into the synagogue and taught: and there was a man there, and his right hand was withered.
It came to passe also on another Sabbath, that hee entred into the Synagogue, and taught, and there was a man, whose right hand was dryed vp.
7 And the scribes and the Pharisees watched him, whether he would heal on the sabbath; that they might find how to accuse him.
And the Scribes and Pharises watched him, whether he would heale on the Sabbath day, that they might finde an accusation against him.
8 But he knew their thoughts; and he said to the man that had his hand withered, Rise up, and stand forth in the midst. And he arose and stood forth.
But he knew their thoughts, and sayd to the man which had the withered hand, Arise, and stand vp in the middes. And hee arose, and stoode vp.
9 And Jesus said unto them, I ask you, Is it lawful on the sabbath to do good, or to do harm? to save a life, or to destroy it?
Then sayd Iesus vnto them, I will aske you a question, Whether is it lawfull on the Sabbath dayes to doe good, or to doe euill? to saue life, or to destroy?
10 And he looked round about on them all, and said unto him, Stretch forth thy hand. And he did [so]: and his hand was restored.
And he behelde them all in compasse, and sayd vnto the man, Stretch forth thine hand. And he did so, and his hand was restored againe, as whole as the other.
11 But they were filled with madness; and communed one with another what they might do to Jesus.
Then they were filled full of madnes, and communed one with another, what they might doe to Iesus.
12 And it came to pass in these days, that he went out into the mountain to pray; and he continued all night in prayer to God.
And it came to passe in those dayes, that he went into a mountaine to praye, and spent the night in prayer to God.
13 And when it was day, he called his disciples; and he chose from them twelve, whom also he named apostles:
And when it was day, he called his disciples, and of them he chose twelue which also he called Apostles.
14 Simon, whom he also named Peter, and Andrew his brother, and James and John, and Philip and Bartholomew,
(Simon whome he named also Peter, and Andrew his brother, Iames and Iohn, Philippe and Bartlemewe:
15 and Matthew and Thomas, and James [the son] of Alphæus, and Simon who was called the Zealot,
Matthewe and Thomas: Iames the sonne of Alpheus, and Simon called Zelous,
16 and Judas [the son] of James, and Judas Iscariot, who became a traitor;
Iudas Iames brother, and Iudas Iscariot, which also was the traitour.)
17 and he came down with them, and stood on a level place, and a great multitude of his disciples, and a great number of the people from all Judæa and Jerusalem, and the sea coast of Tyre and Sidon, who came to hear him, and to be healed of their diseases;
Then he came downe with them, and stood in a plaine place, with the company of his disciples, and a great multitude of people out of all Iudea, and Hierusalem, and from the sea coast of Tyrus and Sidon, which came to heare him, and to be healed of their diseases:
18 and they that were troubled with unclean spirits were healed.
And they that were vexed with foule spirits, and they were healed.
19 And all the multitude sought to touch him; for power came forth from him, and healed [them] all.
And the whole multitude sought to touch him: for there went vertue out of him, and healed them all.
20 And he lifted up his eyes on his disciples, and said, Blessed [are] ye poor: for yours is the kingdom of God.
And hee lifted vp his eyes vpon his disciples, and sayd, Blessed be ye poore: for yours is the kingdome of God.
21 Blessed [are] ye that hunger now: for ye shall be filled. Blessed [are] ye that weep now: for ye shall laugh.
Blessed are ye that hunger nowe: for ye shalbe satisfied: blessed are ye that weepe now: for ye shall laugh.
22 Blessed are ye, when men shall hate you, and when they shall separate you [from their company], and reproach you, and cast out your name as evil, for the Son of man’s sake.
Blessed are ye when men hate you, and when they separate you, and reuile you, and put out your name as euill, for the Sonne of mans sake.
23 Rejoice in that day, and leap [for joy]: for behold, your reward is great in heaven; for in the same manner did their fathers unto the prophets.
Reioyce ye in that day, and be glad: for beholde, your reward is great in heauen: for after this maner their fathers did to the Prophets.
24 But woe unto you that are rich! for ye have received your consolation.
But wo be to you that are rich: for ye haue receiued your consolation.
25 Woe unto you, ye that are full now! for ye shall hunger. Woe [unto you], ye that laugh now! for ye shall mourn and weep.
Wo be to you that are full: for ye shall hunger. Wo be to you that now laugh: for ye shall wayle and weepe.
26 Woe [unto you], when all men shall speak well of you! for in the same manner did their fathers to the false prophets.
Wo be to you when all men speake well of you: for so did their fathers to the false prophets.
27 But I say unto you that hear, Love your enemies, do good to them that hate you,
But I say vnto you which heare, Loue your enemies: doe well to them which hate you.
28 bless them that curse you, pray for them that despitefully use you.
Blesse them that curse you, and pray for them which hurt you.
29 To him that smiteth thee on the [one] cheek offer also the other; and from him that taketh away thy cloak withhold not thy coat also.
And vnto him that smiteth thee on ye one cheeke, offer also the other: and him that taketh away thy cloke, forbid not to take thy coate also.
30 Give to every one that asketh thee; and of him that taketh away thy goods ask them not again.
Giue to euery man that asketh of thee: and of him that taketh away the things that be thine, aske them not againe.
31 And as ye would that men should do to you, do ye also to them likewise.
And as ye would that men should doe to you, so doe ye to them likewise.
32 And if ye love them that love you, what thank have ye? for even sinners love those that love them.
For if yee loue them which loue you, what thanke shall ye haue? for euen the sinners loue those that loue them.
33 And if ye do good to them that do good to you, what thank have ye? for even sinners do the same.
And if ye do good for them which do good for you, what thanke shall ye haue? for euen the sinners doe the same.
34 And if ye lend to them of whom ye hope to receive, what thank have ye? even sinners lend to sinners, to receive again as much.
And if ye lend to them of whom ye hope to receiue, what thanke shall yee haue? for euen the sinners lend to sinners, to receiue the like.
35 But love your enemies, and do [them] good, and lend, never despairing; and your reward shall be great, and ye shall be sons of the Most High: for he is kind toward the unthankful and evil.
Wherefore loue ye your enemies, and doe good, and lend, looking for nothing againe, and your rewarde shalbe great, and ye shalbe the children of the most High: for he is kinde vnto the vnkinde, and to the euill.
36 Be ye merciful, even as your Father is merciful.
Be ye therefore mercifull, as your Father also is mercifull.
37 And judge not, and ye shall not be judged: and condemn not, and ye shall not be condemned: release, and ye shall be released:
Iudge not, and ye shall not be iudged: condemne not, and ye shall not bee condemned: forgiue, and ye shalbe forgiuen.
38 give, and it shall be given unto you; good measure, pressed down, shaken together, running over, shall they give into your bosom. For with what measure ye mete it shall be measured to you again.
Giue, and it shalbe giuen vnto you: a good measure, pressed downe, shaken together and running ouer shall men giue into your bosome: for with what measure ye mete, with the same shall men mete to you againe.
39 And he spake also a parable unto them, Can the blind guide the blind? shall they not both fall into a pit?
And he spake a parable vnto them, Can the blinde leade the blinde? shall they not both fall into the ditche?
40 The disciple is not above his teacher: but every one when he is perfected shall be as his teacher.
The disciple is not aboue his master: but whosoeuer will be a perfect disciple, shall bee as his master.
41 And why beholdest thou the mote that is in thy brother’s eye, but considerest not the beam that is in thine own eye?
And why seest thou a mote in thy brothers eye, and considerest not the beame that is in thine owne eye?
42 Or how canst thou say to thy brother, Brother, let me cast out the mote that is in thine eye, when thou thyself beholdest not the beam that is in thine own eye? Thou hypocrite, cast out first the beam out of thine own eye, and then shalt thou see clearly to cast out the mote that is in thy brother’s eye.
Either howe canst thou say to thy brother, Brother, let me pull out the mote that is in thine eye, when thou seest not the beame that is in thine owne eye? Hypocrite, cast out the beame out of thine owne eye first, and then shalt thou see, perfectly to pull out the mote that is in thy brothers eye.
43 For there is no good tree that bringeth forth corrupt fruit; nor again a corrupt tree that bringeth forth good fruit.
For it is not a good tree that bringeth foorth euill fruite: neither an euill tree, that bringeth foorth good fruite.
44 For each tree is known by its own fruit. For of thorns men do not gather figs, nor of a bramble bush gather they grapes.
For euery tree is knowen by his owne fruite: for neither of thornes gather men figges, nor of bushes gather they grapes.
45 The good man out of the good treasure of his heart bringeth forth that which is good; and the evil [man] out of the evil [treasure] bringeth forth that which is evil: for out of the abundance of the heart his mouth speaketh.
A good man out of the good treasure of his heart bringeth foorth good, and an euill man out of the euill treasure of his heart bringeth foorth euill: for of the aboundance of the heart his mouth speaketh.
46 And why call ye me, Lord, Lord, and do not the things which I say?
But why call ye me Lord, Lord, and do not the things that I speake?
47 Every one that cometh unto me, and heareth my words, and doeth them, I will show you to whom he is like:
Whosoeuer commeth to mee, and heareth my wordes, and doeth the same, I will shewe you to whome he is like:
48 he is like a man building a house, who digged and went deep, and laid a foundation upon the rock: and when a flood arose, the stream brake against that house, and could not shake it: because it had been well builded.
He is like a man which built an house, and digged deepe, and layde the fundation on a rocke: and when the waters arose, the flood beat vpon that house, and coulde not shake it: for it was grounded vpon a rocke.
49 But he that heareth, and doeth not, is like a man that built a house upon the earth without a foundation; against which the stream brake, and straightway it fell in; and the ruin of that house was great.
But hee that heareth and doeth not, is like a man that built an house vpon the earth without foundation, against which the flood did beate, and it fell by and by: and the fall of that house was great.
