< Mattheum 19 >

1 Et factum est, cum consummasset Jesus sermones istos, migravit a Galilæa, et venit in fines Judææ trans Jordanem,
It happened when Jesus had finished these words, he departed from Galilee, and came into the borders of Judea beyond the Jordan.
2 et secutæ sunt eum turbæ multæ, et curavit eos ibi.
Large crowds followed him, and he healed them there.
3 Et accesserunt ad eum pharisæi tentantes eum, et dicentes: Si licet homini dimittere uxorem suam, quacumque ex causa?
And Pharisees came to him, testing him, and saying to him, "Is it lawful for a man to divorce a wife for any reason?"
4 Qui respondens, ait eis: Non legistis, quia qui fecit hominem ab initio, masculum et feminam fecit eos? Et dixit:
He answered, and said, "Have you not read that he who created them from the beginning made them male and female,
5 Propter hoc dimittet homo patrem, et matrem, et adhærebit uxori suæ, et erunt duo in carne una.
and said, 'For this reason a man will leave his father and mother, and be joined to his wife; and the two will become one flesh?'
6 Itaque jam non sunt duo, sed una caro. Quod ergo Deus conjunxit, homo non separet.
So that they are no more two, but one flesh. What therefore God has joined together, let no one separate."
7 Dicunt illi: Quid ergo Moyses mandavit dare libellum repudii, et dimittere?
They asked him, "Why then did Moses command us to give her a certificate of divorce, and divorce her?"
8 Ait illis: Quoniam Moyses ad duritiam cordis vestri permisit vobis dimittere uxores vestras: ab initio autem non fuit sic.
He said to them, "Moses, because of the hardness of your hearts, allowed you to divorce your wives, but from the beginning it has not been so.
9 Dico autem vobis, quia quicumque dimiserit uxorem suam, nisi ob fornicationem, et aliam duxerit, mœchatur: et qui dimissam duxerit, mœchatur.
I tell you that whoever divorces his wife, except for sexual immorality, and marries another, commits adultery. And he who marries her when she is divorced commits adultery."
10 Dicunt ei discipuli ejus: Si ita est causa hominis cum uxore, non expedit nubere.
The disciples said to him, "If this is the case of a husband with a wife, it is not expedient to marry."
11 Qui dixit illis: Non omnes capiunt verbum istud, sed quibus datum est.
But he said to them, "Not everyone can receive this saying, but those to whom it is given.
12 Sunt enim eunuchi, qui de matris utero sic nati sunt: et sunt eunuchi, qui facti sunt ab hominibus: et sunt eunuchi, qui seipsos castraverunt propter regnum cælorum. Qui potest capere capiat.
For there are eunuchs who were born that way from their mother's womb, and there are eunuchs who were made eunuchs by men; and there are eunuchs who made themselves eunuchs for the kingdom of heaven's sake. He who is able to receive it, let him receive it."
13 Tunc oblati sunt ei parvuli, ut manus eis imponeret, et oraret. Discipuli autem increpabant eos.
Then little children were brought to him, that he should lay his hands on them and pray; and the disciples rebuked them.
14 Jesus vero ait eis: Sinite parvulos, et nolite eos prohibere ad me venire: talium est enim regnum cælorum.
But Jesus said, "Allow the little children, and do not forbid them to come to me; for the kingdom of heaven belongs to ones like these."
15 Et cum imposuisset eis manus, abiit inde.
He placed his hands on them, and departed from there.
16 Et ecce unus accedens, ait illi: Magister bone, quid boni faciam ut habeam vitam æternam? (aiōnios g166)
And look, someone came to him and said, "Teacher, what good thing must I do, that I may have everlasting life?" (aiōnios g166)
17 Qui dixit ei: Quid me interrogas de bono? Unus est bonus, Deus. Si autem vis ad vitam ingredi, serva mandata.
He said to him, "Why do you ask me about what is good? No one is good but one. But if you want to enter into life, keep the commandments."
18 Dicit illi: Quæ? Jesus autem dixit: Non homicidium facies; non adulterabis; non facies furtum; non falsum testimonium dices;
He said to him, "Which ones?" And Jesus said, "'Do not murder.' 'Do not commit adultery.' 'Do not steal.' 'Do not offer false testimony.'
19 honora patrem tuum, et matrem tuam, et diliges proximum tuum sicut teipsum.
'Honor your father and mother.' And, 'Love your neighbor as yourself.'"
20 Dicit illi adolescens: Omnia hæc custodivi a juventute mea: quid adhuc mihi deest?
The young man said to him, "All these things I have kept. What do I still lack?"
21 Ait illi Jesus: Si vis perfectus esse, vade, vende quæ habes, et da pauperibus, et habebis thesaurum in cælo: et veni, sequere me.
Jesus said to him, "If you want to be perfect, go, sell what you have and give to the poor, and you will have treasure in heaven; and come, follow me."
22 Cum audisset autem adolescens verbum, abiit tristis: erat enim habens multas possessiones.
But when the young man heard the saying, he went away sad, for he was one who had great possessions.
23 Jesus autem dixit discipulis suis: Amen dico vobis, quia dives difficile intrabit in regnum cælorum.
Jesus said to his disciples, "Truly I say to you, it is difficult for a rich person to enter the kingdom of heaven.
24 Et iterum dico vobis: Facilius est camelum per foramen acus transire, quam divitem intrare in regnum cælorum.
Again I tell you, it is easier for a camel to go through a needle's eye, than for a rich person to enter into the Kingdom of God."
25 Auditis autem his, discipuli mirabantur valde, dicentes: Quis ergo poterit salvus esse?
When the disciples heard it, they were exceedingly astonished, saying, "Who then can be saved?"
26 Aspiciens autem Jesus, dixit illis: Apud homines hoc impossibile est: apud Deum autem omnia possibilia sunt.
Looking at them, Jesus said, "With humans this is impossible, but with God all things are possible."
27 Tunc respondens Petrus, dixit ei: Ecce nos reliquimus omnia, et secuti sumus te: quid ergo erit nobis?
Then Peter answered, "Look, we have left everything, and followed you. What then will we have?"
28 Jesus autem dixit illis: Amen dico vobis, quod vos, qui secuti estis me, in regeneratione cum sederit Filius hominis in sede majestatis suæ, sedebitis et vos super sedes duodecim, judicantes duodecim tribus Israël.
Jesus said to them, "Truly I tell you that you who have followed me, in the regeneration when the Son of Man will sit on the throne of his glory, you also will sit on twelve thrones, judging the twelve tribes of Israel.
29 Et omnis qui reliquerit domum, vel fratres, aut sorores, aut patrem, aut matrem, aut uxorem, aut filios, aut agros propter nomen meum, centuplum accipiet, et vitam æternam possidebit. (aiōnios g166)
Everyone who has left houses, or brothers, or sisters, or father, or mother, or wife, or children, or lands, for my name's sake, will receive one hundred times, and will inherit everlasting life. (aiōnios g166)
30 Multi autem erunt primi novissimi, et novissimi primi.
But many will be last who are first; and first who are last.
