Luke 6
1 One Sabbath while Jesus was walking through grainfields, his disciples began picking some heads of grain, rubbing them in their hands, and eating them.
Factum est autem in sabbato secundo, primo, cum transiret per sata, vellebant discipuli ejus spicas, et manducabant confricantes manibus.
2 Some of the Pharisees questioned him, asking, “Why are you doing what is not permitted on the Sabbath?”
Quidam autem pharisæorum, dicebant illis: Quid facitis quod non licet in sabbatis?
3 Jesus replied, “Have you never read what David did when he and his men were hungry?
Et respondens Jesus ad eos, dixit: Nec hoc legistis quod fecit David, cum esurisset ipse, et qui cum illo erant?
4 How he went into the house of God and took the consecrated bread? He ate it, and gave it to his men too. That's not permitted either. The consecrated bread is only for the priests.”
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?
5 Then he told them, “The Son of man is Lord of the Sabbath.”
Et dicebat illis: Quia dominus est Filius hominis etiam sabbati.
6 On another Sabbath he went into the synagogue to teach. A man was there with a crippled right hand.
Factum est autem in alio sabbato, ut intraret in synagogam, et doceret. Et erat ibi homo, et manus ejus dextra erat arida.
7 The religious teachers and the Pharisees were observing Jesus closely to see if he would heal on the Sabbath. They wanted to find something to accuse him of.
Observabant autem scribæ et pharisæi si in sabbato curaret, ut invenirent unde accusarent eum.
8 But Jesus knew what was in their minds. He told the man with the crippled hand, “Get up, and stand here in front of everyone.” The man got up and stood there.
Ipse vero sciebat cogitationes eorum: et ait homini qui habebat manum aridam: Surge, et sta in medium. Et surgens stetit.
9 Then Jesus turned to them and said, “Let me ask you a question. Is it legal to do good on the Sabbath, or to do bad? To save life, or to destroy it?”
Ait autem ad illos Jesus: Interrogo vos si licet sabbatis benefacere, an male: animam salvam facere, an perdere?
10 He looked round at all of them there. Then he said to the man, “Hold out your hand.” The man did so, and his hand became like new.
Et circumspectis omnibus dixit homini: Extende manum tuam. Et extendit: et restituta est manus ejus.
11 But they flew into a rage, and began to discuss what they could do to Jesus.
Ipsi autem repleti sunt insipientia, et colloquebantur ad invicem, quidnam facerent Jesu.
12 One day shortly after, Jesus went up a mountain to pray. He remained there all night, praying to God.
Factum est autem in illis diebus, exiit in montem orare, et erat pernoctans in oratione Dei.
13 When morning came he called together his disciples, and chose twelve of them. These are the names of the apostles:
Et cum dies factus esset, vocavit discipulos suos: et elegit duodecim ex ipsis (quos et apostolos nominavit):
14 Simon (also called Peter by Jesus), Andrew his brother, James, John, Philip, Bartholomew,
Simonem, quem cognominavit Petrum, et Andream fratrem ejus, Jacobum, et Joannem, Philippum, et Bartholomæum,
15 Matthew, Thomas, James the son of Alphaeus, Simon the Revolutionary,
Matthæum, et Thomam, Jacobum Alphæi, et Simonem, qui vocatur Zelotes,
16 Judas the son of James, and Judas Iscariot (who became a traitor).
et Judam Jacobi, et Judam Iscariotem, qui fuit proditor.
17 Jesus went back down the mountain with them, and stopped at a place where there was some flat ground. There a crowd made up of his disciples and many other people from all over Judea, Jerusalem, and the sea coast of Tyre and Sidon, had gathered to listen to him and to be cured from their diseases.
Et descendens cum illis, stetit in loco campestri, et turba discipulorum ejus, et multitudo copiosa plebis ab omni Judæa, et Jerusalem, et maritima, et Tyri, et Sidonis,
18 Those who were troubled by evil spirits were also healed.
qui venerant ut audirent eum, et sanarentur a languoribus suis. Et qui vexabantur a spiritibus immundis, curabantur.
19 Everyone in the crowd tried to touch him, because power was coming out from him and healing them all.
Et omnis turba quærebat eum tangere: quia virtus de illo exibat, et sanabat omnes.
20 Looking at his disciples, Jesus told them,
Et ipse elevatis oculis in discipulis suis, dicebat: Beati pauperes, quia vestrum est regnum Dei.
21 “How happy are you who are poor, for the kingdom of God is yours. How happy are you who are hungry now, for you will eat all you need. How happy are you who are weeping now, for you will laugh.
Beati qui nunc esuritis, quia saturabimini. Beati qui nunc fletis, quia ridebitis.
22 How happy are you when people hate you, exclude you, insult you, and curse your name as evil because of me, the Son of man.
Beati eritis cum vos oderint homines, et cum separaverint vos, et exprobraverint, et ejicerint nomen vestrum tamquam malum propter Filium hominis.
23 When that day comes, be happy. Jump for joy, for great is your reward in heaven. Don't forget their forefathers mistreated the prophets just like this.
Gaudete in illa die, et exsultate: ecce enim merces vestra multa est in cælo: secundum hæc enim faciebant prophetis patres eorum.
24 But how sad are you who are rich, for you have already received your reward.
Verumtamen væ vobis divitibus, quia habetis consolationem vestram.
25 How sad are you who are full now, for you will become hungry. How sad are you who laugh now, for you will mourn and cry.
Væ vobis, qui saturati estis: quia esurietis. Væ vobis, qui ridetis nunc: quia lugebitis et flebitis.
26 How sad are you when everyone praises you. Don't forget that their forefathers praised false prophets just like this.
Væ cum benedixerint vobis homines: secundum hæc enim faciebant pseudoprophetis patres eorum.
27 But I say to those of you who are listening: Love your enemies. Do good to those who hate you.
Sed vobis dico, qui auditis: diligite inimicos vestros, benefacite his qui oderunt vos.
28 Bless those who curse you. Pray for those who mistreat you.
Benedicite maledicentibus vobis, et orate pro calumniantibus vos.
29 If someone hits you on one cheek, turn the other cheek. If someone takes your coat, don't prevent them taking your shirt.
Et qui te percutit in maxillam, præbe et alteram. Et ab eo qui aufert tibi vestimentum, etiam tunicam noli prohibere.
30 Give to anyone who asks you. If someone takes something from you, don't ask for it back.
Omni autem petenti te, tribue: et qui aufert quæ tua sunt, ne repetas.
31 Do to others what you want them to do to you.
Et prout vultis ut faciant vobis homines, et vos facite illis similiter.
32 If you love those who love you, why should you deserve any credit for that? Even sinners love those who love them.
Et si diligitis eos qui vos diligunt, quæ vobis est gratia? nam et peccatores diligentes se diligunt.
33 If you do good to those who do good to you, why should you deserve any credit for that either? Sinners do that as well.
Et si benefeceritis his qui vobis benefaciunt, quæ vobis est gratia? siquidem et peccatores hoc faciunt.
34 If you lend money expecting to be repaid, why should you deserve any credit for that? Sinners lend money to other sinners as well, expecting to be repaid what they loaned.
Et si mutuum dederitis his a quibus speratis recipere, quæ gratia est vobis? nam et peccatores peccatoribus fœnerantur, ut recipiant æqualia.
35 No: love your enemies, do good to them, and lend without expecting to be repaid anything. Then you will receive a great reward, and you will be children of the Most High God, for he is kind to ungrateful and wicked people.
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.
36 Be compassionate, just as your Father is compassionate.
Estote ergo misericordes sicut et Pater vester misericors est.
37 Don't judge, and you won't be judged; don't condemn, and you won't be condemned; forgive, and you'll be forgiven;
Nolite judicare, et non judicabimini: nolite condemnare, et non condemnabimini. Dimittite, et dimittemini.
38 give, and you will be given generously in return. When what you're given is measured out, it's pressed down so more can be added, spilling out over the top, pouring into your lap! For how much you give will determine how much you receive.”
Date, et dabitur vobis: mensuram bonam, et confertam, et coagitatam, et supereffluentem dabunt in sinum vestrum. Eadem quippe mensura, qua mensi fueritis, remetietur vobis.
39 Then he illustrated the point: “Can a blind person lead another? Wouldn't they both fall into a ditch?
Dicebat autem illis et similitudinem: Numquid potest cæcus cæcum ducere? nonne ambo in foveam cadunt?
40 Do students know more than the teacher? Only when they've learned everything: then they will be like their teacher.
Non est discipulus super magistrum: perfectus autem omnis erit, si sit sicut magister ejus.
41 Why are you so worried about the speck that's in your brother's eye when you don't even notice the plank that's in your own eye?
Quid autem vides festucam in oculo fratris tui, trabem autem, quæ in oculo tuo est, non consideras?
42 How can you say to your brother, ‘Brother, let me take out the speck that's in your eye,’ when you don't even see the plank that's in your own eye? Hypocrite! Take out the plank from your own eye first, and then you'll be able to see well enough to take out the speck from your brother's eye.
aut quomodo potes dicere fratri tuo: Frater, sine ejiciam festucam de oculo tuo: ipse in oculo tuo trabem non videns? Hypocrita, ejice primum trabem de oculo tuo: et tunc perspicies ut educas festucam de oculo fratris tui.
43 A good tree doesn't produce bad fruit, and a bad tree doesn't produce good fruit.
Non est enim arbor bona, quæ facit fructus malos: neque arbor mala, faciens fructum bonum.
44 You recognize a tree by the fruit it produces. You don't pick figs from thorn bushes, or harvest grapes from brambles.
Unaquæque enim arbor de fructu suo cognoscitur. Neque enim de spinis colligunt ficus: neque de rubo vindemiant uvam.
45 Good people produce what's good from the good things they value that they have stored inside them. Bad people produce what's bad from the bad things they have stored inside them. What fills people's minds spills out in what they say.
Bonus homo de bono thesauro cordis sui profert bonum: et malus homo de malo thesauro profert malum. Ex abundantia enim cordis os loquitur.
46 So why do you bother to call me, ‘Lord, Lord,’ when you don't do what I say?
Quid autem vocatis me Domine, Domine: et non facitis quæ dico?
47 I'll give you an example of someone who comes to me, hears my instructions, and follows them.
Omnis qui venit ad me, et audit sermones meos, et facit eos, ostendam vobis cui similis sit:
48 That person is like a man building a house. He digs down deep and lays the foundations on solid rock. When the river bursts its banks and the floodwater breaks against the house it's not damaged because it's built so well.
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.
49 The person who hears me but doesn't do what I say is like a man who builds a house without foundations. When the floodwater breaks against the house it collapses immediately, completely destroyed.”
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.
