1 And it came to pass on the second Sabbath, He was going through the cornfields; and His disciples were plucking the ears, and eating, shelling them out with their hands.
And it came to pass, on a Sabbath, that he was passing along through cornfields, and his disciples were plucking and eating the ears of corn, rubbing them with their hands.
2 And certain ones of the Pharisees said to them, Why are you doing that which is not lawful to do on the Sabbath?
But, certain of the Pharisees, said—Why are ye doing what is not allowed on the Sabbath?
3 Jesus responded and said to them, Have ye not read what David did, when he was hungry, and those being with him?
And, making answer unto them, Jesus said—Have ye never read, even this, what David did when he hungered, he, and they who were with him—
4 How he entered into the house of God, and how he took the shewbread, and ate it, and gave it to those with him; which is not lawful to eat, except the priests only?
How he entered into the house of God, and, the presence-bread, receiving, did eat, and gave to them who were with him, which it is not allowable to eat, save alone, to the priests?
5 And He said to them, The Son of man is Lord of the Sabbath also.
And he was saying to them—The Son of Man is, Lord of the Sabbath.
6 And it came to pass on another Sabbath, that He came into the synagogue and taught, and a man was there, whose right hand was withered.
And it came to pass, on another Sabbath, that he entered into the synagogue, and was teaching, and there was a man there, and, his right hand, was withered.
7 And the scribes and Pharisees were watching Him, if He will heal him on the Sabbath, in order that they may find accusation against Him.
Now the Scribes and the Pharisees were narrowly watching him, whether, on the Sabbath, he healeth, —that they might find whereof to accuse him.
8 But He knew their thoughts, and said to the man having the withered hand, Rise up, and stand in the midst; and he having arisen stood.
But, he, knew their reasonings, and said to the man who had the, withered, hand—Arise, and stand forward in the midst! And, arising, he stood forward.
9 And Jesus said to them, I will ask you; What is lawful on the Sabbath; to do good, or to do evil? to save life, or to destroy?
And Jesus said unto them—I ask you, whether it is allowed, on the Sabbath, to do good or to do harm, —life, to save, or, to destroy.
10 And looking around upon them all, He said to him, Reach forth thy hand. And he did so: and his hand was restored.
And, looking round upon them all, he said unto him—Stretch forth thy hand! and, he, did so, and his hand was restored.
11 And they were filled with rage; and they were talking one to another what they might do to Jesus.
But, they, were filled with folly, and began conversing one with another, as to, what they might do with Jesus.
12 And it came to pass in those days, that He went out into the mountain to pray; and was there through the night in the prayer of God.
And it came to pass, in these days, that he went forth into the mountain to pray, and was spending the night in the prayer-house of God.
13 And when it was day, He called His disciples to Him: and having chosen twelve from them, whom He also named apostles;
And, when it became day, he called his disciples, and chose from them, twelve, whom also he named, Apostles, —
14 Simon, whom He also named Peter, and Andrew his brother, James and John. Philip and Bartholomew,
Simon, whom also he named Peter, and Andrew his brother; and James and John; and Philip and Bartholomew;
15 Matthew and Thomas, James the son of Alpheus, and Simon called the Zealot;
and Matthew and Thomas; and James, son of Alphaeus, and Simon, who was called Zealot; and Judas, [son] of James,
16 and Judas the brother of James, and Judas Iscariot, who also became His betrayer.
and Judas Iscariot, who became betrayer; —
17 And having come down with them, He stood upon a level place, and a great multitude of His disciples, and a great crowd of people from all Judea and Jerusalem, and Tyre and Sidon by the sea, who came to hear Him, and to be healed of their diseases;
and, coming down with them, he stood upon a level place, also a great multitude of his disciples, —and a great throng of the people, from all Judaea and Jerusalem and the sea-coast of Tyre and Zidon, who had come to hearken unto him and to be healed from their diseases;
18 and those troubled by unclean spirits; and they were getting healed.
and, they who were molested by impure spirits, were being cured;
19 And the whole multitude sought to touch Him: because power was going out from Him, and was healing all.
and, all the multitude, were seeking to touch him, because, power, from him, was coming forth, and healing all.
20 And He lifting up His eyes to His disciples, said, Blessed are ye poor: because the kingdom of God is yours.
And, he, lifting up his eyes towards his disciples, was saying: —Happy, ye destitute, for, yours, is the kingdom of God.
21 Blessed are ye who hunger now: because ye shall be filled. Blessed are ye who weep now: because ye shall laugh.
Happy, ye that hunger now, for ye shall be filled. Happy, ye that weep now, for ye shall laugh.
22 Blessed are ye, when the people may hate you, and when they may separate you, and cast out your name as evil, for the sake of the Son of man.
Happy, are ye, whensoever men shall hate you, and whensoever they shall separate you, and reproach you, and cast out your name as evil, for the sake of the Son of Man:
23 Rejoice in that day, and leap for joy: for behold your reward in heaven is great: for according to these things were their fathers accustomed to do to the prophets.
be rejoiced in that day, and leap, for lo! your reward, is great in heaven; for, according to the same things, were their fathers doing unto the prophets.
24 Moreover woe unto you rich! because you exhaust your reward.
But alas! for you, ye wealthy, for ye are duly receiving you consolation.
25 Woe unto you who are full! because you shall hunger. Woe unto you who are now laughing because you shall weep and mourn.
Alas! for you, ye who are filled full now, for ye shall hunger. Alas! ye that laugh now, for ye shall mourn and weep.
26 Woe unto you when all the people may speak well of you! because according to the same things their fathers were accustomed to do to the false prophets.
Alas! whensoever all men shall, speak well of you, for, according to the same things, were their fathers doing unto the false prophets.
27 But I say unto you that hear, Love your enemies with divine love, and do good to those that hate you,
But, unto you, I say, who are hearkening: Be loving your enemies; be doing, good, unto them that hate you;
28 bless those who curse you, and pray for those who despitefully use you.
Be blessing them that curse you; be praying for them that wantonly insult you.
29 To the one smiting thee on the cheek turn the other also; and from the one taking away thy cloak do not withhold even the coat.
To him who is smiting thee upon the one cheek, be offering, the other also; and, from him who is taking away thy mantle, thy tunic also, do not forbid:
30 Give to every one asking thee, and turn not away from the one taking thy possessions,
To every one asking thee, give, and, from him that taketh away thy possessions, ask them not back.
31 And as you wish that the people may do unto you, do ye unto them even likewise.
And, according as ye desire that men be doing unto you, be ye doing unto them, in like manner.
32 If you love those who love you, what grace is there to you? for even sinners love those who love them.
And, if ye love them that love you, what sort of thanks are there for you? for, even sinners, love, such as love them.
33 And if you may do good to those doing good to you, what grace is there to you? for sinners also do the same.
[For], if ye even do good unto them that do good unto you, what sort of thanks are there for you? Even sinners, the same, are doing.
34 And if you may lend to those from whom you may hope to receive, what grace is there to you? for sinners lend to sinners, that they may receive back the equivalent.
And, if ye lend to them from whom ye are hoping to receive, what sort of thanks are there for you? Even sinners, unto sinners, do lend, that they may receive back, as much.
35 Moreover love your enemies, and do good, and lend, hoping nothing in return; and your reward shall be great, and you shall be the sons of the Highest: because He is good to the ungrateful and wicked.
But love your enemies, and do good and lend, hoping for, nothing, back; and your reward shall be, great, and ye shall be sons of the Most High, —for, he, is, gracious, unto the ungrateful and wicked.
36 Therefore be ye merciful, as your Father is indeed merciful.
Become ye compassionate, according as, your Father, is, compassionate;
37 And criticise not, and you can not be criticised. Condemn not, and you can not be condemned.
And do not judge, and in nowise shall ye be judged; and do not condemn, and in nowise shall ye be condemned; release, and ye shall be released;
38 Forgive, and you shall be forgiven: give, and it shall be given unto you; good measure, heaped up, and shaken down, and running over, they will give into your bosom. For with the same measure, which you measure, it will be measured unto you.
Give, and it shall be given unto you: good measure, pressed down, shaken together, running over, will they give into your lap; for, with what measure ye mete, shall it be measured back unto you.
39 And He spoke a parable unto them, Whether is the blind able to lead the blind? will they not both fall into the ditch?
He spake, moreover, a parable also, unto them: Can, the blind, guide, the blind? will not, both, fall into, a ditch?
40 The disciple is not above his teacher; but every one having been made perfect shall be as his teacher.
A disciple is not above the teacher; but, when trained, every one shall be as his teacher.
41 But why do you see the mote which is in the eye of your brother, and do not recognize the beam which is in your own eye?
But why beholdest thou the mote that is in the eye of thy brother, while, the beam that is in thine own eye, thou dost not consider?
42 Or how are you able to say to your brother; Brother, permit me, I will cast out the mote which is in thine eye, yourself not seeing the beam which is in your own eye? O hypocrite, first cast out the beam from your own eye, and then you will see clearly to cast out the mote which is in the eye of your brother.
How canst thou say to thy brother—Brother! let me cast out the mote that is in thine eye, —thyself, the beam in thine own eye, not beholding? 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 the eye of thy brother.
43 For there is no beautiful tree producing corrupt fruit, nor corrupt tree producing beautiful fruit.
For a good tree doth not produce worthless fruit, neither again doth, a worthless tree, produce good fruit.
44 For every tree is known by its own fruit: for they do not gather figs from thorns, nor do they gather the grape-bunch from the bramble.
For, every tree, by its own fruit, becometh known. For not, of thorns, do they gather figs, neither, of a bramble-bush, do they gather, a bunch of grapes.
45 The good man out of the good treasure of his heart brings forth the good; and the wicked man out of the wicked treasure of his heart brings forth that which is wicked: for out of the abundance of his heart his mouth speaks.
The good man, out of the good treasure of the heart, bringeth forth that which is good; and, the wicked man, out of the wicked heart, bringeth forth that which is wicked; for, out of an overflowing of heart, speaketh, his mouth.
46 But why do you call me Lord, Lord, and do not the things which I say?
And why call ye me, Lord! Lord! and not do the things that I say?
47 Every one coming to me, and hearing my words, and doing the same, I will show you to whom he is like.
Every one coming unto me, and hearkening unto my words, and doing them, I will suggest to you, whom he is like:
48 He is like unto a man building a house, who dug and went down deep, and laid the foundation upon the rock: and there being a flood, the river broke against that house, and it was not able to shake it; for it was founded on the rock.
He is like unto a man building a house, who digged, and deepened, and laid a foundation upon the rock, —and, a flood, coming, the stream burst against that house, and was not strong enough to shake it, because it had been, well, built.
49 But the one hearing and not doing, is like unto a man building his house upon the ground without a foundation; against which the river broke, and it fell immediately, and great was the fall of that house.
But, he that hath heard and not done, is like unto a man having built a house upon the earth, without a foundation, —against which the stream burst, and, straightway, it fell in; and it came to pass, that, the crash of that house, was, great.
