Evangelium secundum Lucam, 17

1. et ad discipulos suos ait inpossibile est ut non veniant scandala væ autem illi per quem veniunt

1. And he said to his disciples: It is impossible that scandals should not come: but woe to him through whom they come.

2. utilius est illi si lapis molaris inponatur circa collum ejus et proiciatur in mare quam ut scandalizet unum de pusillis istis

2. It were better for him, that a millstone were hanged about his neck, and he cast into the sea, than that he should scandalize one of these little ones.

3. adtendite vobis si peccaverit frater tuus increpa illum et si pænitentiam egerit dimitte illi

3. Take heed to yourselves. If thy brother sin against thee, reprove him: and if he do penance, forgive him.

4. et si septies in die peccaverit in te et septies in die conversus fuerit ad te dicens pænitet me dimitte illi

4. And if he sin against thee seven times in a day, and seven times in a day be converted unto thee, saying, I repent; forgive him.

5. et dixerunt apostoli Domino adauge nobis fidem

5. And the apostles said to the Lord: Increase our faith.

6. dixit autem Dominus si haberetis fidem sicut granum sinapis diceretis huic arbori moro eradicare et transplantare in mare et obœdiret vobis

6. And the Lord said: If you had faith like to a grain of mustard seed, you might say to this mulberry tree, Be thou rooted up, and be thou transplanted into the sea: and it would obey you.

7. quis autem vestrum habens servum arantem aut pascentem qui regresso de agro dicet illi statim transi recumbe

7. But which of you having a servant ploughing, or feeding cattle, will say to him, when he is come from the field: Immediately go, sit down to meat:

8. et non dicet ei para quod cenem et præcinge te et ministra mihi donec manducem et bibam et post hæc tu manducabis et bibes

8. And will not rather say to him: Make ready my supper, and gird thyself, and serve me, whilst I eat and drink, and afterwards thou shalt eat and drink?

9. numquid gratiam habet servo illi quia fecit quæ sibi imperaverat non puto

9. Doth he thank that servant, for doing the things which he commanded him?

10. sic et vos cum feceritis omnia quæ præcepta sunt vobis dicite servi inutiles sumus quod debuimus facere fecimus

10. I think not. So you also, when you shall have done all these things that are commanded you, say: We are unprofitable servants; we have done that which we ought to do.

11. et factum est dum iret in Hierusalem transiebat per mediam Samariam et Galilæam

11. And it came to pass, as he was going to Jerusalem, he passed through the midst of Samaria and Galilee.

12. et cum ingrederetur quoddam castellum occurrerunt ei decem viri leprosi qui steterunt a longe

12. And as he entered into a certain town, there met him ten men that were lepers, who stood afar off;

13. et levaverunt vocem dicentes Jesu præceptor miserere nostri

13. And lifted up their voice, saying: Jesus, master, have mercy on us.

14. quos ut vidit dixit ite ostendite vos sacerdotibus et factum est dum irent mundati sunt

14. Whom when he saw, he said: Go, shew yourselves to the priests. And it came to pass, as they went, they were made clean.

15. unus autem ex illis ut vidit quia mundatus est regressus est cum magna voce magnificans Deum

15. And one of them, when he saw that he was made clean, went back, with a loud voice glorifying God.

16. et cecidit in faciem ante pedes ejus gratias agens et hic erat Samaritanus

16. And he fell on his face before his feet, giving thanks: and this was a Samaritan.

17. respondens autem Jesus dixit nonne decem mundati sunt et novem ubi sunt

17. And Jesus answering, said, Were not ten made clean? and where are the nine?

18. non est inventus qui rediret et daret gloriam Deo nisi hic alienigena

18. There is no one found to return and give glory to God, but this stranger.

19. et ait illi surge vade quia fides tua te salvum fecit

19. And he said to him: Arise, go thy way; for thy faith hath made thee whole.

20. interrogatus autem a Pharisæis quando venit regnum Dei respondit eis et dixit non venit regnum Dei cum observatione

20. And being asked by the Pharisees, when the kingdom of God should come? he answered them, and said: The kingdom of God cometh not with observation:

21. neque dicent ecce hic aut ecce illic ecce enim regnum Dei intra vos est

21. Neither shall they say: Behold here, or behold there. For lo, the kingdom of God is within you.

22. et ait ad discipulos venient dies quando desideretis videre unum diem Filii hominis et non videbitis

22. And he said to his disciples: The days will come, when you shall desire to see one day of the Son of man; and you shall not see it.

23. et dicent vobis ecce hic ecce illic nolite ire neque sectemini

23. And they will say to you: See here, and see there. Go ye not after, nor follow them:

24. nam sicut fulgur coruscans de sub cælo in ea quæ sub cælo sunt fulget ita erit Filius hominis in die sua

24. For as the lightening that lighteneth from under heaven, shineth unto the parts that are under heaven, so shall the Son of man be in his day.

25. primum autem oportet illum multa pati et reprobari a generatione hac

25. But first he must suffer many things, and be rejected by this generation.

26. et sicut factum est in diebus Nœ ita erit et in diebus Filii hominis

26. And as it came to pass in the days of Noe, so shall it be also in the days of the Son of man.

27. edebant et bibebant uxores ducebant et dabantur ad nuptias usque in diem qua intravit Nœ in arcam et venit diluvium et perdidit omnes

27. They did eat and drink, they married wives, and were given in marriage, until the day that Noe entered into the ark: and the flood came and destroyed them all.

28. similiter sicut factum est in diebus Loth edebant et bibebant emebant et vendebant plantabant ædificabant

28. Likewise as it came to pass, in the days of Lot: they did eat and drink, they bought and sold, they planted and built.

29. qua die autem exiit Loth a Sodomis pluit ignem et sulphur de cælo et omnes perdidit

29. And in the day that Lot went out of Sodom, it rained fire and brimstone from heaven, and destroyed them all.

30. secundum hæc erit qua die Filius hominis revelabitur

30. Even thus shall it be in the day when the Son of man shall be revealed.

31. in illa hora qui fuerit in tecto et vasa ejus in domo ne descendat tollere illa et qui in agro similiter non redeat retro

31. In that hour, he that shall be on the housetop, and his goods in the house, let him not go down to take them away: and he that shall be in the field, in like manner, let him not return back.

32. memores estote uxoris Loth

32. Remember Lot's wife.

33. quicumque quæsierit animam suam salvare perdet illam et qui perdiderit illam vivificabit eam

33. Whosoever shall seek to save his life, shall lose it: and whosoever shall lose it, shall preserve it.

34. dico vobis illa nocte erunt duo in lecto uno unus adsumetur et alter relinquetur

34. I say to you: in that night there shall be two men in one bed; the one shall be taken, and the other shall be left.

35. duæ erunt molentes in unum una adsumetur et altera relinquetur duo in agro unus adsumetur et alter relinquetur

35. Two women shall be grinding together: the one shall be taken, and the other shall be left: two men shall be in the field; the one shall be taken, and the other shall be keft.

36. respondentes dicunt illi ubi Domine

36. They answering, say to him: Where, Lord?

37. qui dixit eis ubicumque fuerit corpus illuc congregabuntur aquilæ

37. Who said to them: Wheresoever the body shall be, thither will the eagles also be gathered together.
