< Luke 6 >
1 And it came to pass, on a Sabbath, as He is going through the grainfields, that His disciples were plucking the ears, and were eating, rubbing with the hands,
It happened on an after saboth that he went thorow the corne felde and that his disciples plucked the eares of corne and ate and rubbed them in their hondes.
2 and certain of the Pharisees said to them, “Why do you do that which is not lawful to do on the Sabbaths?”
And certayne of the Pharises sayde vnto them: Why do ye that which is not laufull to do on the saboth dayes?
3 And Jesus answering said to them, “Did you not read even this that David did when he hungered, himself and those who are with him,
And Iesus answered them and sayde: Have ye not redde what David dyd when he him sylfe was anhungred and they which were with him:
4 how he went into the house of God, and took the Bread of the Presentation, and ate, and gave also to those with him, which it is not lawful to eat, except only to the priests?”
how he went into the housse of God and toke and ate the loves of halowed breed and gave also to them which were with him: which was not laufull to eate but for the prestes only.
5 And He said to them, “The Son of Man is Lord also of the Sabbath.”
And he sayde vnto them: The sonne of man is Lorde of the saboth daye.
6 And it came to pass also, on another Sabbath, that He goes into the synagogue, and teaches, and there was there a man, and his right hand was withered,
And it fortuned in a nother saboth also that he entred in to ye sinagoge and taught. And ther was a ma whose right honde was dryed vp.
7 and the scribes and the Pharisees were watching Him, if on the Sabbath He will heal, that they might find an accusation against Him.
And ye Scribes and Pharises watched him to se whether he wolde heale on the Saboth daye that they myght fynde an accusacion agaynst him.
8 And He Himself had known their reasonings and said to the man having the withered hand, “Rise, and stand in the midst”; and he having risen, stood.
But he knewe their thoughtes and sayde to the man which had ye wyddred honde: Ryse vp and stonde forthe in the myddes. And he arose and stepped forthe.
9 Then Jesus said to them, “I will question you something: is it lawful on the Sabbaths to do good, or to do evil? To save life or to kill?”
Then sayde Iesus vnto them: I will axe you a question: Whether is it laufull on the saboth dayes to do good or to do evill? to save lyfe or for to destroye it?
10 And having looked around on them all, He said to the man, “Stretch forth your hand”; and he did so, and his hand was restored whole as the other;
And he behelde them all in copasse and sayd vnto ye man: Stretche forth thy honde. And he dyd so and his honde was restored and made as whoole as the other.
11 and they were filled with madness, and were speaking with one another what they might do to Jesus.
And they were filled full of madnes and comuned one with another what they myght do to Iesu.
12 And it came to pass in those days, He went forth to the mountain to pray, and was passing the night in the prayer of God,
And it fortuned in thoose dayes that he went out into a mountayne for to praye and cotinued all nyght in prayer to god.
13 and when it became day, He called near His disciples, also having chosen twelve from them, whom He also named apostles:
And assone as it was daye he called his disciples and of the he chose twelve which also he called apostles.
14 Simon, whom He also named Peter, and his brother Andrew, James and John, Philip and Bartholomew,
Simon who he named Peter: and Andrew his brother. Iames and Iho Philip and Bartlemew
15 Matthew and Thomas, James of Alphaeus, and Simon called Zealot,
Mathew and Thomas Iames the sonne of Alpheus and Simon called zelotes
16 Judas of James, and Judas Iscariot, who also became betrayer.
and Iudas Iames sonne and Iudas Iscarioth which same was the traytour.
17 And having come down with them, He stood on a level spot; and a crowd of His disciples, and a great multitude of the people from all Judea, and Jerusalem, and the seacoast of Tyre and Sidon,
And he came doune with them and stode in the playne felde with the company of his disciples and agreate multitude of people out of all parties of Iurie and Ierusalem and from the see cooste of Tire and Sidon which came to heare hym and to be healed of their diseases:
18 who came to hear Him and to be healed of their diseases, [gathered]. And those harassed by unclean spirits [also gathered] and were healed.
and they also that were vexed with foule spretes and they were healed.
19 And all the multitude were seeking to touch Him, because power was going forth from Him, and He was healing all.
And all the people preased to touche him: for there went vertue out of him and healed them all.
20 And He, having lifted up His eyes to His disciples, said: “Blessed the poor—because yours is the Kingdom of God.
And he lifted vp his eyes apon the disciples and sayde: Blessed be ye poore: for yours is the kyngdome of God.
21 Blessed those hungering now—because you will be filled. Blessed those weeping now—because you will laugh.
Blessed are ye that honger now: for ye shalbe satisfied. Blessed are ye yt wepe now: for ye shall laugh.
22 Blessed are you when men will hate you, and when they will separate you, and will reproach, and will cast forth your name as evil, for the Son of Man’s sake—
Blessed are ye when men hate you and thrust you oute of their companye and rayle and abhorre youre name as an evyll thinge for the sonne of manes sake.
23 rejoice in that day, and leap, for behold, your reward [is] great in Heaven, for according to these things were their fathers doing to the prophets.
Reioyse ye then and be gladde: for beholde youre rewarde is greate in heven. After this manner their fathers entreated the Prophetes.
24 But woe to you—the rich, because you have gotten your comfort.
But wo be to you that are ryche: for ye have therin youre consolacion.
25 Woe to you who have been filled—because you will hunger. Woe to you who are laughing now—because you will mourn and weep.
Wo be to you yt are full: for ye shall honger. Wo be to you that now laugh: for ye shall wayle and wepe.
26 Woe to you when all men will speak well of you—for according to these things were their fathers doing to false prophets.
Wo be to you when all men prayse you: for so dyd their fathers to the false prophetes.
27 But I say to you who are hearing, love your enemies, do good to those hating you,
But I saye vnto you which heare: Love youre enemyes. Do good to the which hate you.
28 bless those cursing you, pray for those maligning you;
Blesse the that course you. And praye for the which wrongfully trouble you.
29 and to him striking you on the cheek, give also the other, and from him taking away from you the mantle, also the coat you may not keep back.
And vnto him that smyteth the on the one cheke offer also ye other. And him that taketh awaye thy goune forbid not to take thy coote also.
30 And to everyone who is asking of you, be giving; and from him who is taking away your goods, do not be asking again;
Geve to every man that axeth of the. And of him that taketh awaye thy goodes axe them not agayne.
31 and as you wish that men may do to you, do also to them in like manner;
And as ye wolde that men shuld doo to you: so do ye to them lyke wyse.
32 and—if you love those loving you, what grace is it to you? For also the sinful love those loving them;
If ye love the which love you: what thanke are ye worthy of? For the very synners love their lovers.
33 and if you do good to those doing good to you, what grace is it to you? For also the sinful do the same;
And yf ye do for them which do for you: what thanke are ye worthy of? For the very synners do even the same.
34 and if you lend [to those] of whom you hope to receive back, what grace is it to you? For also the sinful lend to sinners—that they may receive again as much.
If ye lende to them of whome ye hoope to receave: what thanke shall ye have: for the very synners lende to synners to receave as moch agayne.
35 But love your enemies, and do good, and lend, hoping for nothing again, and your reward will be great, and you will be sons of the Highest, because He is kind to the ungracious and evil;
Wherfore love ye youre enemys do good and lende lokynge for nothinge agayne and youre rewarde shalbe greate and ye shalbe the chyldren of the hyest: for he is kynde vnto the vnkynde and to the evyll.
36 be therefore merciful, as also your Father is merciful.
Be ye therfore mercifull as youre father is mercifull.
37 And do not judge, and you may not be judged; do not condemn, and you may not be condemned; release, and you will be released.
Iudge not and ye shall not be Iudged. Condemne not: and ye shall not be condemned. Forgeve and ye shalbe forgeven.
38 Give, and it will be given to you; good measure, pressed, and shaken, and running over, they will give into your bosom; for with that measure with which you measure, it will be measured to you again.”
Geve and yt shalbe geven vnto you: good measure pressed doune shaken to geder and runnynge over shall men geve into youre bosomes. For with what measure ye mete with ye same shall men mete to you agayne.
39 And He spoke an allegory to them, “Is blind able to lead blind? Will they not both fall into a pit?
And he put forthe a similitude vnto the: Can the blynde leade ye blynde? Do they not both then fall into ye dyche?
40 A disciple is not above his teacher, but everyone perfected will be as his teacher.
The disciple is not above his master. Every ma shalbe perfecte even as his master is.
41 And why do you behold the speck that is in your brother’s eye, and do not consider the beam that [is] in your own eye?
Why seyst thou a moote in thy brothers eye considerest not ye beame yt is in thyne awne eye?
42 Or how are you able to say to your brother, Brother, permit, I may take out the speck that [is] in your eye—yourself not beholding the beam in your own eye? Hypocrite, first take the beam out of your own eye, and then you will see clearly to take out the speck that [is] in your brother’s eye.
Ether how canest thou saye to thy brother: Brother let me pull out ye moote that is in thyne eye: when thou perceavest not the beame that is in thyne awne eye? Ypocrite cast out ye beame out of thyne awne eye fyrst and then shalt thou se perfectly to pull out the moote out of thy brothers eye.
43 For there is not a good tree making bad fruit, nor a bad tree making good fruit;
It is not a good tree that bringeth forthe evyll frute: nether is that an evyll tree that bringeth forthe good frute
44 for each tree is known from its own fruit, for they do not gather figs from thorns, nor do they crop a grape from a bramble.
For every tree is knowen by his frute. Nether of thornes gader men fygges nor of busshes gader they grapes.
45 The good man out of the good treasure of his heart brings forth that which [is] good; and the evil man out of the evil treasure of his heart brings forth that which [is] evil; for out of the abounding of the heart his mouth speaks.
A good man out of the good treasure of his hert bringeth forthe that which is good. And an evyll man out of the evyll treasure of his hert bringeth forthe that which ys evyll. For of the aboundaunce of ye her his mouthe speakethe.
46 And why do you call Me, Lord, Lord, and do not do what I say?
Why call ye me Master Master: and do not as I bid you?
47 Everyone who is coming to Me, and is hearing My words, and is doing them, I will show you to whom he is like:
whosoever cometh to me and heareth my sayinges and dothe the same I will shewe you to whome he ys lyke.
48 he is like to a man building a house, who dug and deepened, and laid a foundation on the rock, and a flood having come, the stream broke forth on that house, and was not able to shake it, for it had been founded on the rock.
He is like a man which bilt an housse: and digged depe and layde the foundacio on a rocke. Whe the waters arose the fludde bet apo that housse and coulde not move yt. For it was grounded apon a rocke.
49 And he who heard and did not, is like to a man having built a house on the earth, without a foundation, against which the stream broke forth, and immediately it fell, and the ruin of that house became great.”
But he that heareth and doth not is lyke a man that with out foundacion bylt an housse apon the erth agaynst which the fludde did bet: and it fell by and by. And ye fall of yt housse was greate.
