< Matthew 19 >

1 After Jesus had said that, he [took us] and left Galilee [district] and went to the part of Judea [district that is located] on the [east] side of the Jordan [River].
И бысть егда сконча Иисус словеса сия, прейде от Галилеи и прииде в пределы Иудейския об он пол Иордана.
2 Large crowds followed him there, and he healed [the sick among] them.
И по Нем идоша народи мнози, и изцели их ту.
3 [Some] Pharisees approached Jesus and said to him, “Does [our Jewish] law permit [a man] to divorce his wife for any reason whatever?” [They asked that] in order to be able to criticize Jesus, [whether he answered “Yes” or “No].”
И приступиша к Нему фарисее искушающе Его и глаголаша Ему: аще достоит человеку пустити жену свою по всяцей вине?
4 Jesus said [to them], “[Because] you have read [RHQ] [the Scriptures], [you should know] that at the time [God first] created [people], ‘he made [one] man, and he made [one] woman [to be that man’s wife].’
Он же отвещав рече им: несте ли чли, яко Сотворивый искони, мужеский пол и женский сотворил я есть?
5 That explains why [God said], ‘[When] a man [and woman marry], they should no longer live with their fathers and mothers. [Instead], the two of them shall live together, and they shall become [so closely united that they are like] one person [MET].’
И рече: сего ради оставит человек отца (своего) и матерь и прилепится к жене своей, и будета оба в плоть едину,
6 Consequently, [although they functioned as] two [separate people before], they now [become as if they were] one person [MET]. Since that is true, a man must not separate [from his wife] whom God has joined to him, [because it is God’s plan for them to remain together].”
якоже ктому неста два, но плоть едина: еже убо Бог сочета, человек да не разлучает.
7 The Pharisees then said to him, “If that is true, why did Moses command that [a man who wanted to divorce] his wife should give her a paper [stating his reason for] divorcing her, and then send her away?”
Глаголаша Ему: что убо Моисей заповеда дати книгу распустную и отпустити ю?
8 He said to them, “It was because [your ancestors] stubbornly [wanted their own way] that Moses allowed them to divorce their wives, [and you are no different from them]. But when God first [MTY] created a man and a woman, [he did not intend for them to separate].
Глагола им: яко Моисей по жестосердию вашему повеле вам пустити жены вашя: изначала же не бысть тако:
9 I am telling you emphatically that [because God considers that a marriage lasts until either the husband or the wife dies, he considers that] any man who divorces his wife and marries another woman is committing adultery, unless [his first wife] has committed adultery.”
глаголю же вам, яко иже аще пустит жену свою, разве словесе прелюбодейна, и оженится иною, прелюбы творит: и женяйся пущеницею прелюбы деет.
10 We disciples said to him, “If that is true, it is better for men never to marry!”
Глаголаша Ему ученицы Его: аще тако есть вина человеку с женою, лучше есть не женитися.
11 Then he said to us, “Not every man is able to accept this teaching. Only the men whom [God] enables [to accept it are able to do so].
Он же рече им: не вси вмещают словесе сего, но имже дано есть:
12 There are men who [do not marry because they are not able to have sexual relations because they] have been sexually defective ever since they were born. There are other men [who do not marry because they are unable to have sexual relations] because they have been castrated {other men have made them that way}. There are other [men who decide not to marry] [MET] in order that they can serve God better [and spend more time telling people about how] God [MTY/EUP] wants to rule people’s lives. You who are able to understand [what I have said about marriage] should accept it [and obey it].”
суть бо скопцы, иже из чрева матерня родишася тако: и суть скопцы, иже скопишася от человек: и суть скопцы, иже исказиша сами себе Царствия ради Небеснаго: могий вместити да вместит.
13 Then [some] children were brought {[some people] brought their children} to Jesus in order that he might lay his hands on them and pray [for them]. But we disciples scolded the people [for bringing their children to Jesus because we thought that Jesus did not want to take the time to be with children].
Тогда приведоша к Нему дети, да руце возложит на них и помолится: ученицы же запретиша им.
14 But [when Jesus saw us scolding them], he said to us, “Let the children come to me! Do not stop them! It is people who are [humble and trusting] like they are, who can experience God’s rule [in their lives].”
Иисус же рече (им): оставите детей и не возбраняйте им приити ко Мне: таковых бо есть Царство Небесное.
15 Jesus then laid his hands on the children [and asked God to bless them]. Then he left there.
И возложь на них руце, отиде оттуду.
16 [As Jesus was walking along, a young] man approached him and said [to him], “Teacher, what good [deeds] must I do in order to live [with God] eternally?” (aiōnios g166)
И се, един (некий) приступль рече Ему: Учителю благий, что благо сотворю, да имам живот вечный? (aiōnios g166)
17 Jesus said to him, “(Consider [what you are implying about who I am when] you ask me about what is good./Do you realize [what you are implying about who I am when] you ask me about that which is good?) [RHQ] Only one being is good and [really knows what is good. That being is God. But in order to answer your question] about [desiring to] live [with God eternally], I [will say to you], ‘Keep the commandments [that God gave Moses’].”
Он же рече ему: что Мя глаголеши блага? Никтоже благ, токмо един Бог: аще ли хощеши внити в живот, соблюди заповеди.
18 The man asked Jesus, “Which [commandments must I keep]?” Jesus answered [him], “Do not murder [anyone], do not commit adultery, do not steal things, do not testify falsely,
Глагола Ему: кия? Иисус же рече: еже, не убиеши: не прелюбы сотвориши: не украдеши: не лжесвидетелствуеши:
19 honor your father and your mother, and love people you come in contact with as [much as you love] yourself.”
чти отца и матерь: и: возлюбиши искренняго твоего яко сам себе.
20 [Thinking that he might not be able to live with God eternally even though he had kept those commandments], the young man said to Jesus, “I have always obeyed all those commandments. What else must I do [in order to live with God eternally]?”
Глагола Ему юноша: вся сия сохраних от юности моея: что есмь еще не докончал?
21 Jesus said to him, “If you desire to be all that God intends you to be, go [home], sell everything that you have and give [the money] to poor people. [The result will be that] you will have [spiritual] riches in heaven. Then come and be my disciple!”
Рече ему Иисус: аще хощеши совершен быти, иди, продаждь имение твое и даждь нищым: и имети имаши сокровище на небеси: и гряди вслед Мене.
22 When the young man heard those words, he went away feeling sad, because he was very rich [and did not want to give away everything he owned].
Слышав же юноша слово, отиде скорбя: бе бо имея стяжания многа.
23 Then Jesus said to [us] disciples, “Keep this in mind: It is very difficult for rich people [to decide] to let God [MTY/EUP] rule their [lives].
Иисус же рече учеником Своим: аминь глаголю вам, яко неудобь богатый внидет в Царствие Небесное:
24 Note this also: It is impossible for a camel to go through the eye of a needle. It is [almost] as difficult [HYP] for rich people [to decide] to let God rule their [lives].”
паки же глаголю вам: удобее есть велбуду сквозе иглине ушы проити, неже богату в Царствие Божие внити.
25 When [we] disciples heard this, we were astounded. [We thought that rich people were the ones whom God blesses the most. So we said to him], “(If that is so, it does not seem likely that anyone will be saved!/Who then will God will save?)” [RHQ]
Слышавше же ученицы Его, дивляхуся зело, глаголюще: кто убо может спасен быти?
26 [When Jesus heard us say that], he looked intently at us, and [then] he said to us, “[Yes], it is impossible for people [to save themselves]. But [God can save them, because] God is able to do [anything]!”
Воззрев же Иисус рече им: у человек сие невозможно есть, у Бога же вся возможна.
27 Then Peter said to him, “You know that we [(exc)] have left everything behind and we have become your disciples. So what benefit will we get [for doing that]?”
Тогда отвещав Петр рече Ему: се, мы оставихом вся и вслед Тебе идохом: что убо будет нам?
28 Jesus said to us, “Keep this in mind: [You will get many benefits]. When [God] makes [the] new [earth] and when [I], the one who came from heaven, sit on my magnificent throne, those of you who have accompanied me will each sit on a throne, and you will judge [the people of] the twelve tribes of Israel.
Иисус же рече им: аминь глаголю вам, яко вы шедшии по Мне, в пакибытие, егда сядет Сын Человеческий на престоле славы Своея, сядете и вы на двоюнадесяте престолу, судяще обеманадесяте коленома Израилевома:
29 [God will reward] those who, because of being my [disciples], have left [behind] a house or plot of ground, [their] brothers, [their] sisters, their father, their mother, their children, [or any other family] [MTY] [members]. [God] will give them 100 times [as many benefits as they have given up]. And they will live [with God] eternally. (aiōnios g166)
и всяк, иже оставит дом, или братию, или сестры, или отца, или матерь, или жену, или чада, или села, имене Моего ради, сторицею приимет и живот вечный наследит: (aiōnios g166)
30 But many [people who consider themselves to] be important [now] will be unimportant [at that future time], and many [people who consider themselves to be] unimportant [now will be] important [at that future time].”
мнози же будут перви последнии, и последни первии.
