Evangelium secundum Lucam, 6

1. factum est autem in sabbato secundoprimo cum transiret per sata vellebant discipuli ejus spicas et manducabant confricantes manibus

1. And it came to pass on the second first sabbath, that as he went through the corn fields, his disciples plucked the ears, and did eat, rubbing them in their hands.

2. quidam autem Pharisæorum dicebant illis quid facitis quod non licet in sabbatis

2. And some of the Pharisees said to them: Why do you that which is not lawful on the sabbath days?

3. et respondens Jesus ad eos dixit nec hoc legistis quod fecit David cum esurisset ipse et qui cum eo erant

3. And Jesus answering them, said: Have you not read so much as this, what David did, when himself was hungry, and they that 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

4. How he went into the house of God, and took and ate the bread of proposition, and gave to them that were with him, which is not lawful to eat but only for the priests?

5. et dicebat illis quia dominus est Filius hominis etiam sabbati

5. And he said to them: The Son of man is Lord also of the sabbath.

6. factum est autem et in alio sabbato ut intraret in synagogam et doceret et erat ibi homo et manus ejus dextra erat arida

6. And it came to pass also on another sabbath, that he entered into the synagogue, and taught. And there was a man, whose right hand was withered.

7. observabant autem scribæ et Pharisæi si in sabbato curaret ut invenirent accusare illum

7. And the scribes and Pharisees watched if he would heal on the sabbath; 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

8. But he knew their thoughts; and said to the man who had the withered hand: Arise, and stand forth in the midst. And rising he stood forth.

9. ait autem ad illos Jesus interrogo vos si licet sabbato bene facere an male animam salvam facere an perdere

9. Then Jesus said to them: I ask you, if it be lawful on the sabbath days to do good, or to do evil; to save life, or to destroy?

10. et circumspectis omnibus dixit homini extende manum tuam et extendit et restituta est manus ejus

10. And looking round about on them all, he said to the man: Stretch forth thy hand. And he stretched it forth: and his hand was restored.

11. ipsi autem repleti sunt insipientia et conloquebantur ad invicem quidnam facerent Jesu

11. And they were filled with madness; and they talked one with another, what they might do to Jesus.

12. factum est autem in illis diebus exiit in montem orare et erat pernoctans in oratione Dei

12. And it came to pass in those days, that he went out into a mountain to pray, and he passed the whole night in the prayer of God.

13. et cum dies factus esset vocavit discipulos suos et elegit duodecim ex ipsis quos et apostolos nominavit

13. And when day was come, he called unto him his disciples; and he chose twelve of them (whom also he named apostles):

14. Simonem quem cognominavit Petrum et Andream fratrem ejus Jacobum et Johannem Philippum et Bartholomeum

14. Simon, whom he surnamed Peter, and Andrew his brother, James and John, Philip and Bartholomew,

15. Mattheum et Thomam Jacobum Alphei et Simonem qui vocatur Zelotes

15. Matthew and Thomas, James the son of Alpheus, and Simon who is called Zelotes,

16. Judam Jacobi et Judam Scarioth qui fuit proditor

16. And Jude, the brother of James, and Judas Iscariot, who was the traitor.

17. et descendens cum illis stetit in loco campestri et turba discipulorum ejus et multitudo copiosa plebis ab omni Judæa et Hierusalem et maritimæ Tyri et Sidonis

17. And coming down with them, he stood in a plain place, and the company of his disciples, and a very great multitude of people from all Judea and Jerusalem, and the sea coast both of Tyre and Sidon,

18. qui venerunt ut audirent eum et sanarentur a languoribus suis et qui vexabantur ab spiritibus inmundis curabantur

18. Who were come to hear him, and to be healed of their diseases. And they that were troubled with unclean spirits, were cured.

19. et omnis turba quærebant eum tangere quia virtus de illo exiebat et sanabat omnes

19. And all the multitude sought to touch him, for virtue went out from him, and healed all.

20. et ipse elevatis oculis in discipulos suos dicebat beati pauperes quia vestrum est regnum Dei

20. And he, lifting up his eyes on his disciples, said: Blessed are ye poor, for yours is the kingdom of God.

21. beati qui nunc esuritis quia saturabimini beati qui nunc fletis quia ridebitis

21. Blessed are ye that hunger now: for you shall be filled. Blessed are ye that weep now: for you shall laugh.

22. beati eritis cum vos oderint homines et cum separaverint vos et exprobraverint et ejecerint nomen vestrum tamquam malum propter Filium hominis

22. Blessed shall you be when men shall hate you, and when they shall separate you, and shall reproach you, and cast out your name as evil, for the Son of man's sake.

23. gaudete in illa die et exultate ecce enim merces vestra multa in cælo secundum hæc enim faciebant prophetis patres eorum

23. Be glad in that day and rejoice; for behold, your reward is great in heaven. For according to these things did their fathers to the prophets.

24. verumtamen væ vobis divitibus quia habetis consolationem vestram

24. But woe to you that are rich: for you have your consolation.

25. væ vobis qui saturati estis quia esurietis væ vobis qui ridetis nunc quia lugebitis et flebitis

25. Woe to you that are filled: for you shall hunger. Woe to you that now laugh: for you shall mourn and weep.

26. væ cum bene vobis dixerint omnes homines secundum hæc faciebant prophetis patres eorum

26. Woe to you when men shall bless you: for according to these things did their fathers to the false prophets.

27. sed vobis dico qui auditis diligite inimicos vestros benefacite his qui vos oderunt

27. But I say to you that hear: Love your enemies, do good to them that hate you.

28. benedicite maledicentibus vobis orate pro calumniantibus vos

28. Bless them that curse you, and pray for them that calumniate you.

29. ei qui te percutit in maxillam præbe et alteram et ab eo qui aufert tibi vestimentum etiam tunicam noli prohibere

29. And to him that striketh thee on the one cheek, offer also the other. And him that taketh away from thee thy cloak, forbid not to take thy coat also.

30. omni autem petenti te tribue et qui aufert quæ tua sunt ne repetas

30. Give to every one that asketh thee, and of him that taketh away thy goods, ask them not again.

31. et prout vultis ut faciant vobis homines et vos facite illis similiter

31. And as you would that men should do to you, do you also to them in like manner.

32. et si diligitis eos qui vos diligunt quæ vobis est gratia nam et peccatores diligentes se diligunt

32. And if you love them that love you, what thanks are to you? for sinners also love those that love them.

33. et si benefeceritis his qui vobis benefaciunt quæ vobis est gratia siquidem et peccatores hoc faciunt

33. And if you do good to them who do good to you, what thanks are to you? for sinners also do this.

34. et si mutuum dederitis his a quibus speratis recipere quæ gratia est vobis nam et peccatores peccatoribus fenerantur ut recipiant æqualia

34. And if you lend to them of whom you hope to receive, what thanks are to you? for sinners also lend to sinners, for to receive as much.

35. verumtamen diligite inimicos vestros et benefacite et mutuum date nihil desperantes et erit merces vestra multa et eritis filii Altissimi quia ipse benignus est super ingratos et malos

35. But love ye your enemies: do good, and lend, hoping for nothing thereby: and your reward shall be great, and you shall be the sons of the Highest; for he is kind to the unthankful, and to the evil.

36. estote ergo misericordes sicut et Pater vester misericors est

36. Be ye therefore merciful, as your Father also is merciful.

37. nolite judicare et non judicabimini nolite condemnare et non condemnabimini dimittite et dimittemini

37. Judge not, and you shall not be judged. Condemn not, and you shall not be condemned. Forgive, and you shall be forgiven.

38. date et dabitur vobis mensuram bonam confersam et coagitatam et supereffluentem dabunt in sinum vestrum eadem quippe mensura qua mensi fueritis remetietur vobis

38. Give, and it shall be given to you: good measure and pressed down and shaken together and running over shall they give into your bosom. For with the same measure that you shall mete withal, it shall be measured to you again.

39. dicebat autem illis et similitudinem numquid potest cæcus cæcum ducere nonne ambo in foveam cadent

39. And he spoke also to them a similitude: Can the blind lead the blind? do they not both fall into the ditch?

40. non est discipulus super magistrum perfectus autem omnis erit sicut magister ejus

40. The disciple is not above his master: but every one shall be perfect, if he be as his master.

41. quid autem vides festucam in oculo fratris tui trabem autem quæ in oculo tuo est non consideras

41. And why seest thou the mote in thy brother's eye: but the beam that is in thy own eye thou considerest not?

42. et quomodo potes dicere fratri tuo frater sine eiciam festucam de oculo tuo ipse in oculo tuo trabem non videns hypocrita eice primum trabem de oculo tuo et tunc perspicies ut educas festucam de oculo fratris tui

42. Or how canst thou say to thy brother: Brother, let me pull the mote out of thy eye, when thou thyself seest not the beam in thy own eye? Hypocrite, cast first the beam out of thy own eye; and then shalt thou see clearly to take out the mote from thy brother's eye.

43. non est enim arbor bona quæ facit fructus malos neque arbor mala faciens fructum bonum

43. For there is no good tree that bringeth forth evil fruit; nor an evil tree that bringeth forth good fruit.

44. unaquæque enim arbor de fructu suo cognoscitur neque enim de spinis colligunt ficus neque de rubo vindemiant uvam

44. For every tree is known by its fruit. For men do not gather figs from thorns; nor from a bramble bush do they gather the grape.

45. bonus homo de bono thesauro cordis sui profert bonum et malus homo de malo profert malum ex abundantia enim cordis os loquitur

45. A good man out of the good treasure of his heart bringeth forth that which is good: and an evil man out of the evil treasure bringeth forth that which is evil. For out of the abundance of the heart the mouth speaketh.

46. quid autem vocatis me Domine Domine et non facitis quæ dico

46. And why call you me, Lord, Lord; and do not the things which I say?

47. omnis qui venit ad me et audit sermones meos et facit eos ostendam vobis cui similis est

47. Every one that cometh to me, and heareth my words, and doth them, I will shew you to whom he is like.

48. similis est homini ædificanti domum qui fodit in altum et posuit fundamenta supra petram inundatione autem facta inlisum est flumen domui illi et non potuit eam movere fundata enim erat supra petram

48. He is like to a man building a house, who digged deep, and laid the foundation upon a rock. And when a flood came, the stream beat vehemently upon that house, and it could not shake it; for it was founded on a rock.

49. qui autem audivit et non fecit similis est homini ædificanti domum suam supra terram sine fundamento in quam inlisus est fluvius et continuo concidit et facta est ruina domus illius magna

49. But he that heareth, and doth not, is like to a man building his house upon the earth without a foundation: against which the stream beat vehemently, and immediately it fell, and the ruin of that house was great.
