San Lucas 18
1 Y PROPÚSOLES tambien una parábola sobre que es necesario orar siempre, y no desmayar.
And he also spoke a parable to them about it being necessary to always pray, and not to give up,
2 Diciendo: Habia un juez en una ciudad, el cual ni temia á Dios, ni respetaba hombre.
saying, In a certain city there was a judge who did not fear God, and did not regard man.
3 Habia tambien en aquella ciudad una viuda, la cual venia á él, diciendo: Hazme justicia de mi adversario.
And a widow was in that city, and she came to him, saying, Avenge me of my opponent.
4 Pero él no quiso por [algun] tiempo: mas despues de esto dijo dentro de sí: Aunque ni temo á Dios, ni tengo respeto á hombre;
And for a time he would not, but after these things he said within himself, Although I fear not God, and regard not man,
5 Todavia porque esta viuda me es molesta, le haré justicia, porque al fin no venga y me muela.
yet because this widow causes me a beating, I will avenge her, lest by no end of coming she give me a black eye.
6 Y dijo el Señor: Oíd lo que dice el juez injusto.
And the Lord said, Hear ye what the unrighteous judge says.
7 ¿Y Dios no hará justicia á sus escogidos, que claman á él dia y noche, aunque sea longánime acerca de ellos?
And God, will he, no, not do the vengeance of his chosen who cry out to him day and night, and yet being patient toward them?
8 Os digo que los defenderá presto. Empero cuando el Hijo del hombre viniere, ¿hallará fé en la tierra?
I say to you, that he will do their vengeance speedily. Nevertheless, when the Son of man comes, will he then find faith on the earth?
9 Y dijo tambien á unos que confiaban de sí como justos, y menospreciaban á los otros, esta parábola:
And he also spoke this parable to some of those who were persuaded in themselves that they were righteous, and disdained other men.
10 Dos hombres subieron al templo á orar; el uno Fariséo, y el otro publicano.
Two men went up into the temple to pray, the one a Pharisee, and the other a tax collector.
11 El Fariséo, en pié, oraba consigo de esta manera: Dios, te doy gracias, que no soy como los otros hombres, ladrones, injustos, adúlteros, ni aun como este publicano.
Having stood by himself, the Pharisee prayed these things: God, I thank thee that I am not as the rest of men, predatory, unjust, adulterers, or even as this tax collector.
12 Ayuno dos veces en la semana; doy diezmos de todo lo que poseo.
I fast twice of the week. I tithe all things, as many as I acquire.
13 Mas el publicano estando lejos, no queria ni aun alzar los ojos al cielo; sino que heria su pecho, diciendo: Dios, sé propicio á mí, pecador.
But the tax collector, having stood from afar, would not even lift his eyes to the sky, but beat upon his breast, saying, God, be thou merciful to me a sinful man.
14 Os digo que éste descendió á su casa [más] justificado que el otro: porque cualquiera que se ensalza, será humillado, y el que se humilla, será ensalzado.
I say to you, this man went down to his house justified rather than that man. Because every man who lifts himself up will be made lower, and he who makes himself lower will be lifted up.
15 Y traian á él los niños para que los tocase; lo cual viéndo[lo] los discípulos, les reñian.
And they were also bringing the infants to him, so that he would touch them, but when the disciples saw it, they rebuked them.
16 Mas Jesus llamándolos, dijo: Dejad los niños venir á mí, y no los impidais, porque de tales es el reino de Dios.
But having summoned them, Jesus said, Allow the children to come to me, and do not forbid them, for of such is the kingdom of God.
17 De cierto os digo, que cualquiera que no recibiere el reino de Dios como un niño, no entrará en él.
Truly I say to you, whoever will not receive the kingdom of God as a child, will, no, not enter into it.
18 Y preguntóle un príncipe diciendo: Maestro bueno, ¿qué haré para poseer la vida eterna? (aiōnios g166)
And a certain ruler questioned him, saying, Good teacher, having done what, will I inherit eternal life? (aiōnios g166)
19 Y Jesus le dijo: ¿Por qué me dices bueno? ninguno [hay] bueno sino solo Dios.
And Jesus said to him, Why do thou call me good? None is good except one, God.
20 Los mandamientos sabes: No matarás, No adulterarás, No hurtarás, No dirás falso testimonio, Honra á tu padre, y á tu madre.
Thou know the commandments. Thou shall not commit adultery. Thou shall not murder. Thou shall not steal. Thou shall not give false testimony. Honor thy father and thy mother.
21 Y él dijo: Todas estas cosas he guardado desde mi juventud.
And he said, All these things I have kept from my youth.
22 Y Jesus, oido esto, le dijo: Aun te falta una cosa: vende todo lo que tienes, y da á los pobres, y tendrás tesoro en el cielo; y ven, sígueme.
And when he heard these things, Jesus said to him, Yet one thing is lacking from thee. Sell all things, as many as thou have, and distribute to the poor, and thou will have treasure in heaven. And come, follow me.
23 Entónces él, oidas estas cosas, se puso muy triste, porque era muy rico.
But when he heard these things, he became very sorrowful, for he was very rich.
24 Y viendo Jesus que se habia entristecido mucho, dijo: ¡Cuán dificultosamente entrarán en el reino de Dios los que tienen riquezas!
And having seen him become very sorrowful, Jesus said, How difficultly those who have riches will enter into the kingdom of God.
25 Porque más fácil cosa es entrar un camello por el ojo de una aguja, que un rico entrar en el reino de Dios.
For it is easier for a camel to enter in through the hole of a needle, than for a rich man to enter into the kingdom of God.
26 Y los que [lo] oian, dijeron: ¿Y quién podrá ser salvo?
And those who heard it said, And who can be saved?
27 Y él [les] dijo: Lo que es imposible para con los hombres, posible es para Dios.
And he said, The things impossible with men are possible with God.
28 Entónces Pedro dijo: Hé aquí, nosotros hemos dejado las posesiones nuestras, y te hemos seguido.
And Peter said, Lo, we have left all and followed thee.
29 Y él les dijo: De cierto os digo que nadie hay que haya dejado casa, ó padres, ó hermanos, ó mujer, ó hijos, por el reino de Dios,
And he said to them, Truly I say to you, that there is no man who has left house, or parents, or brothers, or wife, or children for the sake of the kingdom of God,
31 Y Jesus tomando [aparte] los doce, les dijo: Hé aquí subimos á Jerusalem, y serán cumplidas todas las cosas que fueron escritas por los profetas del Hijo del hombre.
And having taken along the twelve, he said to them, Behold, we are going up to Jerusalem, and all the things that are written through the prophets about the Son of man will be completed.
32 Porque será entregado á las gentes, y será escarnecido, é injuriado, y escupido.
For he will be delivered up to the Gentiles, and he will be mocked and insulted and spit upon.
33 Y despues que le hubieren azotado, le matarán; mas al tercer dia resucitará.
And after scourging, they will kill him, and the third day he will rise up.
34 Pero ellos nada de estas cosas entendian, y esta palabra les era encubierta; y no entendian lo que se decia.
And they understood none of these things, and this saying was hidden from them, and they did not understand the things that were said.
35 Y aconteció que acercándose él á Jericó, un ciego estaba sentado junto al camino mendigando:
And it came to pass as he approached Jericho, a certain blind man sat beside the road begging.
36 El cual como oyó la gente que pasaba, preguntó qué era aquello.
And having heard a multitude going by, he inquired what this may be.
37 Y dijéronle que pasaba Jesus Nazareno.
And they informed him that Jesus the Nazarene passes by.
38 Entónces dió voces, diciendo: Jesus, hijo de David; ten misericordia de mí.
And he cried out, saying, Jesus, thou son of David, be merciful to me.
39 Y los que iban delante, le reñian que callase; mas él clamaba mucho mas: Hijo de David, ten misericordia de mí.
And those who went ahead rebuked him, so that he would be quiet, but he cried out much more, Thou son of David, be merciful to me.
40 Jesus entónces parándose, mandó traerle á sí: y como él llegó, le preguntó,
And having stood still, Jesus commanded him to be brought to him. And when he came near, he questioned him,
41 Diciendo: ¿Qué quieres que te haga? Y él dijo: Señor, que vea.
saying, What do thou that I would do to thee? And he said, Lord, that I may receive sight.
42 Y Jesus le dijo: Vé: tu fé te ha hecho salvo.
And Jesus said to him, Receive sight. Thy faith has healed thee.
43 Y luego vió, y le seguia, glorificando á Dios: y todo el pueblo como vió [esto, ] dió á Dios alabanza.
And immediately he received sight, and followed him glorifying God. And all the people when they saw it gave praise to God.
