< Lucam 6 >

1 Factum est autem in Sabbato secundo, primo, cum transiret per sata, vellebant discipuli eius spicas, et manducabant confricantes manibus.
Now it came to pass for him to be going through the grain fields on a particular sabbath, and his disciples were plucking the ears and were eating, rubbing them in their hands.
2 Quidam autem Pharisæorum, dicebant illis: Quid facitis quod non licet in Sabbatis?
But some of the Pharisees said to them, Why do ye what is not permitted to do on the sabbath day?
3 Et respondens Iesus ad eos, dixit: Nec hoc legistis quod fecit David, cum esurisset ipse, et qui cum illo erant?
And having answered them, Jesus said, Have ye not read even this, what David did when he was hungry, and those who were with him,
4 Quomodo intravit in domum Dei, et panes propositionis sumpsit, et manducavit, et dedit his, qui cum ipso erant: quos non licet manducare nisi tantum sacerdotibus?
how he entered into the house of God, and took and ate the loaves of the presentation, and also gave to those who were with him, which is not permitted to eat, except the priests alone?
5 Et dicebat illis: Quia Dominus est Filius hominis, etiam Sabbati.
And he said to them, The Son of man is lord also of the sabbath.
6 Factum est autem in alio Sabbato, ut intraret in synagogam, et doceret. Et erat ibi homo, et manus eius dextra erat arida.
And it also came to pass on another sabbath for him to enter into the synagogue and teach. And a man was there, and his right hand was withered.
7 Observabant autem scribæ, et Pharisæi si in Sabbato curaret: ut invenirent unde accusarent eum.
And the scholars and the Pharisees watched if he would heal on the sabbath, so that they might find an accusation against him.
8 Ipse vero sciebat cogitationes eorum: et ait homini, qui habebat manum aridam: Surge, et sta in medium. Et surgens stetit.
But he knew their thoughts, and he said to the man who had the withered hand, Rise up, and stand forth in the midst. And having risen, he stood up.
9 Ait autem ad illos Iesus: Interrogo vos si licet Sabbatis benefacere, an male: animam salvam facere, an perdere?
Then Jesus said to them, I will question you. What? Is it permitted on the sabbath to do good, or to do harm, to save life, or to kill?
10 Et circumspectis omnibus dixit homini: Extende manum tuam. Et extendit: et restituta est manus eius.
And having looked around on them all, he said to him, Stretch forth thy hand. And he did, and his hand was restored whole as the other.
11 Ipsi autem repleti sunt insipientia, et colloquebantur ad invicem, quidnam facerent Iesu.
But they were filled with fury, and deliberated with each other what they might do to Jesus.
12 Factum est autem in illis diebus, exiit in montem orare, et erat pernoctans in oratione Dei.
And he happened in these days to go out onto the mountain to pray, and he was continuing all night in prayer to God.
13 Et cum dies factus esset, vocavit discipulos suos: et elegit duodecim ex ipsis (quos et Apostolos nominavit)
And when it became day, he called his disciples, and chose twelve from them, whom he also named apostles:
14 Simonem, quem cognominavit Petrum, et Andream fratrem eius, Iacobum, et Ioannem, Philippum, et Bartholomæum,
Simon, whom he also named Peter, and Andrew his brother, James and John, Philip and Bartholomew,
15 Matthæum, et Thomam, Iacobum Alphæi, et Simonem, qui vocatur Zelotes,
Matthew and Thomas, James the son of Alphaeus, and Simon who was called the Zealot,
16 et Iudam Iacobi, et Iudam Iscariotem, qui fuit proditor.
Judas the son of James, and Judas Iscariot who also became a traitor.
17 Et descendens cum illis, stetit in loco campestri, et turba discipulorum eius, et multitudo copiosa plebis ab omni Iudæa, et Ierusalem, et maritima, et Tyri, et Sidonis,
And having come down with them, he stood on a level place. And a company of his disciples, and a large number of the people from all Judea and Jerusalem, and the maritime Tyre and Sidon, were those who came to hear him, and to be healed from their diseases,
18 qui venerant ut audirent eum, et sanarentur a languoribus suis. Et qui vexabantur a spiritibus immundis, curabantur.
also those who were afflicted with unclean spirits. And they were healed.
19 Et omnis turba quærebat eum tangere: quia virtus de illo exibat, et sanabat omnes.
And all the multitude sought to touch him, because power came forth from him, and healed them all.
20 Et ipse elevatis oculis in discipulis suis, dicebat: Beati pauperes: quia vestrum est regnum Dei.
And having lifted up his eyes on his disciples, he said, Blessed are the poor, because the kingdom of God is what belongs to you.
21 Beati, qui nunc esuritis: quia saturabimini. Beati, qui nunc fletis: quia ridebitis.
Blessed are those who hunger now, because ye will be filled. Blessed are those who weep now, because ye will laugh.
22 Beati eritis cum vos oderint homines, et cum separaverint vos, et exprobraverint, et eiicerint nomen vestrum tamquam malum propter Filium hominis.
Blessed are ye, when men will hate you, and when they will exclude you, and revile you, and cast out your name as evil, because of the Son of man.
23 Gaudete in illa die, et exultate: ecce enim merces vestra multa est in cælo: secundum hæc enim faciebant Prophetis patres eorum.
Rejoice ye in that day, and leap, for behold, your reward is great in heaven, for their fathers did in the same way to the prophets.
24 Verumtamen væ vobis divitibus, quia habetis consolationem vestram.
However, woe to you the rich, because ye have received your consolation.
25 Væ vobis, qui saturati estis: quia esurietis. Væ vobis, qui ridetis nunc: quia lugebitis et flebitis.
Woe to you who are filled now, because ye will hunger. Woe to you who laugh now, because ye will mourn and weep.
26 Væ cum benedixerint vobis homines: secundum hæc enim faciebant pseudoprophetis patres eorum.
Woe when men will speak well of you, for their fathers did in the same way to the false prophets.
27 Sed vobis dico, qui auditis: Diligite inimicos vestros, benefacite his, qui oderunt vos.
But I say to you, to those who hear, love your enemies. Do good to those who hate you.
28 Benedicite maledicentibus vobis, et orate pro calumniantibus vos.
Bless those who curse you. Pray for those who mistreat you.
29 Et qui te percutit in maxillam, præbe et alteram. Et ab eo, qui aufert tibi vestimentum, etiam tunicam noli prohibere.
To him who strikes thee on the cheek offer the other also, and from him who takes away thy cloak, also do not withhold thy coat.
30 Omni autem petenti te, tribue: et qui aufert quæ tua sunt, ne repetas.
Give to every man who asks thee, and from him who takes away thy personal things do not demand them back.
31 Et prout vultis ut faciant vobis homines, et vos facite illis similiter.
And as ye desire that men would do to you, do ye also to them likewise.
32 Et si diligitis eos, qui vos diligunt, quæ vobis est gratia? Nam et peccatores diligentes se diligunt.
And if ye love those who love you, what credit is for you? For even sinners love those who love them.
33 Et si benefeceritis his, qui vobis benefaciunt; quæ vobis est gratia? Siquidem et peccatores hoc faciunt.
And if ye do good to those who do good to you, what credit is for you? For even sinners do the same.
34 Et si mutuum dederitis his, a quibus speratis recipere; quæ gratia est vobis? Nam et peccatores peccatoribus fœnerantur, ut recipiant æqualia.
And if ye lend to whom ye hope to receive, what credit is for you? For even sinners lend to sinners, to receive as much again.
35 Verumtamen diligite inimicos vestros: benefacite, et mutuum date, nihil inde sperantes: et erit merces vestra multa, et eritis filii Altissimi, quia ipse benignus est super ingratos et malos.
But love your enemies, and do good, and lend, despairing nothing, and your reward will be great. And ye will be sons of the Most High, because he is good toward the ungrateful and bad.
36 Estote ergo misericordes sicut et Pater vester misericors est.
Become ye therefore merciful, even as your Father is merciful.
37 Nolite iudicare, et non iudicabimini: nolite condemnare, et non condemnabimini. Dimitte, et dimittemini.
And do not criticize, and ye will, no, not be criticized. And do not condemn, and ye will, no, not be condemned. Forgive, and ye will be forgiven.
38 Date, et dabitur vobis: mensuram bonam, et confertam, et coagitatam, et supereffluentem dabunt in sinum vestrum. Eadem quippe mensura, qua mensi fueritis, remetietur vobis.
Give, and it will be given to you, good measure, pressed down, shaken together, and running over, they will give into your bosom. For with the same measure with which ye measure, it will be measured again to you.
39 Dicebat autem illis et similitudinem: Numquid potest cæcus cæcum ducere? Nonne ambo in foveam cadunt?
And he spoke a parable to them. Can a blind man lead a blind man? Will they not both fall into a ditch?
40 Non est discipulus super magistrum: perfectus autem omnis erit, si sit sicut magister eius.
A disciple is not above his teacher, but every disciple who is fully developed will be as his teacher.
41 Quid autem vides festucam in oculo fratris tui, trabem autem, quæ in oculo tuo est, non consideras?
And why do thou see the speck in thy brother's eye, but do not perceive the beam in thine own eye?
42 Aut quomodo potes dicere fratri tuo: Frater sine eiiciam festucam de oculo tuo: ipse in oculo tuo trabem non videns? Hypocrita eiice primum trabem de oculo tuo: et tunc perspicies ut educas festucam de oculo fratris tui.
Or how can thou say to thy brother, Brother, allow me to take out the speck that is in thine eye, when thou thyself do not see the beam in thine own eye? Thou hypocrite, first take out the beam from thine own eye, and then thou will see clearly to take out the speck in thy brother's eye.
43 Non est enim arbor bona, quæ facit fructus malos: neque arbor mala, faciens fructum bonum.
For a good tree is not producing corrupt fruit, nor a corrupt tree producing good fruit.
44 Unaquæque enim arbor de fructu suo cognoscitur. Neque enim de spinis colligunt ficus: neque de rubo vindemiant uvam.
For each tree is known from its own fruit. For they do not gather figs from thorns, nor do they harvest grapes from a bramble bush.
45 Bonus homo de bono thesauro cordis sui profert bonum: et malus homo de malo thesauro profert malum. Ex abundantia enim cordis os loquitur.
The good man out of the good treasure of his heart brings forth the good, and the bad man out of the bad treasure of his heart brings forth the bad, for out of the abundance of the heart his mouth speaks.
46 Quid autem vocatis me Domine, Domine: et non facitis quæ dico?
And why do ye call me, Lord, Lord, and not do the things that I say?
47 Omnis, qui venit ad me, et audit sermones meos, et facit eos: ostendam vobis cui similis sit:
Every man who comes to me, and hears my sayings, and does them, I will show you to whom he is like.
48 similis est homini ædificanti domum, qui fodit in altum, et posuit fundamentum super petram. Inundatione autem facta, illisum est flumen domui illi, et non potuit eam movere: fundata enim erat super petram.
He is like a man who builds a house, who dug and excavated, and laid a foundation upon the rock. And when a flood developed, the stream beat upon that house, and could not shake it, for it had been founded upon the rock.
49 Qui autem audit, et non facit: similis est homini ædificanti domum suam super terram sine fundamento: in quam illisus est fluvius, et continuo cecidit: et facta est ruina domus illius magna.
But he who heard, and not having done, is like a man who built a house upon the soil without a foundation, on which the stream beat, and straightaway it fell. And the ruin of that house became great.
