Mattheum 26
1 Et factum est: cum consummasset Jesus sermones hos omnes, dixit discipulis suis:
And it came to pass, when Jesus had finished all these words, he said unto his disciples,
2 Scitis quia post biduum Pascha fiet, et Filius hominis tradetur ut crucifigatur.
Ye know that after two days the passover cometh, and the Son of man is delivered up to be crucified.
3 Tunc congregati sunt principes sacerdotum, et seniores populi, in atrium principis sacerdotum, qui dicebatur Caiphas:
Then were gathered together the chief priests, and the elders of the people, unto the court of the high priest, who was called Caiaphas;
4 et consilium fecerunt ut Jesum dolo tenerent, et occiderent.
and they took counsel together that they might take Jesus by subtilty, and kill him.
5 Dicebant autem: Non in die festo, ne forte tumultus fieret in populo.
But they said, Not during the feast, lest a tumult arise among the people.
6 Cum autem Jesus esset in Bethania in domo Simonis leprosi,
Now when Jesus was in Bethany, in the house of Simon the leper,
7 accessit ad eum mulier habens alabastrum unguenti pretiosi, et effudit super caput ipsius recumbentis.
there came unto him a woman having an alabaster cruse of exceeding precious ointment, and she poured it upon his head, as he sat at meat.
8 Videntes autem discipuli, indignati sunt, dicentes: Ut quid perditio hæc?
But when the disciples saw it, they had indignation, saying, To what purpose is this waste?
9 potuit enim istud venundari multo, et dari pauperibus.
For this [ointment] might have been sold for much, and given to the poor.
10 Sciens autem Jesus, ait illis: Quid molesti estis huic mulieri? opus enim bonum operata est in me.
But Jesus perceiving it said unto them, Why trouble ye the woman? for she hath wrought a good work upon me.
11 Nam semper pauperes habetis vobiscum: me autem non semper habetis.
For ye have the poor always with you; but me ye have not always.
12 Mittens enim hæc unguentum hoc in corpus meum, ad sepeliendum me fecit.
For in that she poured this ointment upon my body, she did it to prepare me for burial.
13 Amen dico vobis, ubicumque prædicatum fuerit hoc Evangelium in toto mundo, dicetur et quod hæc fecit in memoriam ejus.
Verily I say unto you, Wheresoever this gospel shall be preached in the whole world, that also which this woman hath done shall be spoken of for a memorial of her.
14 Tunc abiit unus de duodecim, qui dicebatur Judas Iscariotes, ad principes sacerdotum:
Then one of the twelve, who was called Judas Iscariot, went unto the chief priests,
15 et ait illis: Quid vultis mihi dare, et ego vobis eum tradam? At illi constituerunt ei triginta argenteos.
and said, What are ye willing to give me, and I will deliver him unto you? And they weighed unto him thirty pieces of silver.
16 Et exinde quærebat opportunitatem ut eum traderet.
And from that time he sought opportunity to deliver him [unto them].
17 Prima autem die azymorum accesserunt discipuli ad Jesum, dicentes: Ubi vis paremus tibi comedere Pascha?
Now on the first [day] of unleavened bread the disciples came to Jesus, saying, Where wilt thou that we make ready for thee to eat the passover?
18 At Jesus dixit: Ite in civitatem ad quemdam, et dicite ei: Magister dicit: Tempus meum prope est, apud te facio Pascha cum discipulis meis.
And he said, Go into the city to such a man, and say unto him, The Master saith, My time is at hand; I keep the passover at thy house with my disciples.
19 Et fecerunt discipuli sicut constituit illis Jesus, et paraverunt Pascha.
And the disciples did as Jesus appointed them; and they made ready the passover.
20 Vespere autem facto, discumbebat cum duodecim discipulis suis.
Now when even was come, he was sitting at meat with the twelve disciples;
21 Et edentibus illis, dixit: Amen dico vobis, quia unus vestrum me traditurus est.
and as they were eating, he said, Verily I say unto you, that one of you shall betray me.
22 Et contristati valde, cœperunt singuli dicere: Numquid ego sum Domine?
And they were exceeding sorrowful, and began to say unto him every one, Is it I, Lord?
23 At ipse respondens, ait: Qui intingit mecum manum in paropside, hic me tradet.
And he answered and said, He that dipped his hand with me in the dish, the same shall betray me.
24 Filius quidem hominis vadit, sicut scriptum est de illo: væ autem homini illi, per quem Filius hominis tradetur! bonum erat ei, si natus non fuisset homo ille.
The Son of man goeth, even as it is written of him: but woe unto that man through whom the Son of man is betrayed! good were it for that man if he had not been born.
25 Respondens autem Judas, qui tradidit eum, dixit: Numquid ego sum Rabbi? Ait illi: Tu dixisti.
And Judas, which betrayed him, answered and said, Is it I, Rabbi? He saith unto him, Thou hast said.
26 Cœnantibus autem eis, accepit Jesus panem, et benedixit, ac fregit, deditque discipulis suis, et ait: Accipite, et comedite: hoc est corpus meum.
And as they were eating, Jesus took bread, and blessed, and brake it; and he gave to the disciples, and said, Take, eat; this is my body.
27 Et accipiens calicem, gratias egit: et dedit illis, dicens: Bibite ex hoc omnes.
And he took a cup, and gave thanks, and gave to them, saying, Drink ye all of it;
28 Hic est enim sanguis meus novi testamenti, qui pro multis effundetur in remissionem peccatorum.
for this is my blood of the covenant, which is shed for many unto remission of sins.
29 Dico autem vobis: non bibam amodo de hoc genimine vitis usque in diem illum, cum illud bibam vobiscum novum in regno Patris mei.
But I say unto you, I will not drink henceforth of this fruit of the vine, until that day when I drink it new with you in my Father’s kingdom.
30 Et hymno dicto, exierunt in montem Oliveti.
And when they had sung a hymn, they went out unto the mount of Olives.
31 Tunc dicit illis Jesus: Omnes vos scandalum patiemini in me in ista nocte. Scriptum est enim: Percutiam pastorem, et dispergentur oves gregis.
Then saith Jesus unto them, All ye shall be offended in me this night: for it is written, I will smite the shepherd, and the sheep of the flock shall be scattered abroad.
32 Postquam autem resurrexero, præcedam vos in Galilæam.
But after I am raised up, I will go before you into Galilee.
33 Respondens autem Petrus, ait illi: Et si omnes scandalizati fuerint in te, ego numquam scandalizabor.
But Peter answered and said unto him, If all shall be offended in thee, I will never be offended.
34 Ait illi Jesus: Amen dico tibi, quia in hac nocte, antequam gallus cantet, ter me negabis.
Jesus said unto him, Verily I say unto thee, that this night, before the cock crow, thou shalt deny me thrice.
35 Ait illi Petrus: Etiamsi oportuerit me mori tecum, non te negabo. Similiter et omnes discipuli dixerunt.
Peter saith unto him, Even if I must die with thee, [yet] will I not deny thee. Likewise also said all the disciples.
36 Tunc venit Jesus cum illis in villam, quæ dicitur Gethsemani, et dixit discipulis suis: Sedete hic donec vadam illuc, et orem.
Then cometh Jesus with them unto a place called Gethsemane, and saith unto his disciples, Sit ye here, while I go yonder and pray.
37 Et assumpto Petro, et duobus filiis Zebedæi, cœpit contristari et mœstus esse.
And he took with him Peter and the two sons of Zebedee, and began to be sorrowful and sore troubled.
38 Tunc ait illis: Tristis est anima mea usque ad mortem: sustinete hic, et vigilate mecum.
Then saith he unto them, My soul is exceeding sorrowful, even unto death: abide ye here, and watch with me.
39 Et progressus pusillum, procidit in faciem suam, orans, et dicens: Pater mi, si possibile est, transeat a me calix iste: verumtamen non sicut ego volo, sed sicut tu.
And he went forward a little, and fell on his face, and prayed, saying, O my Father, if it be possible, let this cup pass away from me: nevertheless, not as I will, but as thou wilt.
40 Et venit ad discipulos suos, et invenit eos dormientes, et dicit Petro: Sic non potuistis una hora vigilare mecum?
And he cometh unto the disciples, and findeth them sleeping, and saith unto Peter, What, could ye not watch with me one hour?
41 Vigilate, et orate ut non intretis in tentationem. Spiritus quidem promptus est, caro autem infirma.
Watch and pray, that ye enter not into temptation: the spirit indeed is willing, but the flesh is weak.
42 Iterum secundo abiit, et oravit, dicens: Pater mi, si non potest hic calix transire nisi bibam illum, fiat voluntas tua.
Again a second time he went away, and prayed, saying, O my Father, if this cannot pass away, except I drink it, thy will be done.
43 Et venit iterum, et invenit eos dormientes: erant enim oculi eorum gravati.
And he came again and found them sleeping, for their eyes were heavy.
44 Et relictis illis, iterum abiit, et oravit tertio, eumdem sermonem dicens.
And he left them again, and went away, and prayed a third time, saying again the same words.
45 Tunc venit ad discipulos suos, et dicit illis: Dormite jam, et requiescite: ecce appropinquavit hora, et Filius hominis tradetur in manus peccatorum.
Then cometh he to the disciples, and saith unto them, Sleep on now, and take your rest: behold, the hour is at hand, and the Son of man is betrayed into the hands of sinners.
46 Surgite, eamus: ecce appropinquavit qui me tradet.
Arise, let us be going: behold, he is at hand that betrayeth me.
47 Adhuc eo loquente, ecce Judas unus de duodecim venit, et cum eo turba multa cum gladiis et fustibus, missi a principibus sacerdotum, et senioribus populi.
And while he yet spake, lo, Judas, one of the twelve, came, and with him a great multitude with swords and staves, from the chief priests and elders of the people.
48 Qui autem tradidit eum, dedit illis signum, dicens: Quemcumque osculatus fuero, ipse est, tenete eum.
Now he that betrayed him gave them a sign, saying, Whomsoever I shall kiss, that is he: take him.
49 Et confestim accedens ad Jesum, dixit: Ave Rabbi. Et osculatus est eum.
And straightway he came to Jesus, and said, Hail, Rabbi; and kissed him.
50 Dixitque illi Jesus: Amice, ad quid venisti? Tunc accesserunt, et manus injecerunt in Jesum, et tenuerunt eum.
And Jesus said unto him, Friend, [do] that for which thou art come. Then they came and laid hands on Jesus, and took him.
51 Et ecce unus ex his qui erant cum Jesu, extendens manum, exemit gladium suum, et percutiens servum principis sacerdotum amputavit auriculam ejus.
And behold, one of them that were with Jesus stretched out his hand, and drew his sword, and smote the servant of the high priest, and struck off his ear.
52 Tunc ait illi Jesus: Converte gladium tuum in locum suum: omnes enim, qui acceperint gladium, gladio peribunt.
Then saith Jesus unto him, Put up again thy sword into its place: for all they that take the sword shall perish with the sword.
53 An putas, quia non possum rogare patrem meum, et exhibebit mihi modo plusquam duodecim legiones angelorum?
Or thinkest thou that I cannot beseech my Father, and he shall even now send me more than twelve legions of angels?
54 Quomodo ergo implebuntur Scripturæ, quia sic oportet fieri?
How then should the scriptures be fulfilled, that thus it must be?
55 In illa hora dixit Jesus turbis: Tamquam ad latronem existis cum gladiis et fustibus comprehendere me: quotidie apud vos sedebam docens in templo, et non me tenuistis.
In that hour said Jesus to the multitudes, Are ye come out as against a robber with swords and staves to seize me? I sat daily in the temple teaching, and ye took me not.
56 Hoc autem totum factum est, ut adimplerentur Scripturæ prophetarum. Tunc discipuli omnes, relicto eo, fugerunt.
But all this is come to pass, that the scriptures of the prophets might be fulfilled. Then all the disciples left him, and fled.
57 At illi tenentes Jesum, duxerunt ad Caipham principem sacerdotum, ubi scribæ et seniores convenerant.
And they that had taken Jesus led him away to [the house of] Caiaphas the high priest, where the scribes and the elders were gathered together.
58 Petrus autem sequebatur eum a longe, usque in atrium principis sacerdotum. Et ingressus intro, sedebat cum ministris, ut videret finem.
But Peter followed him afar off, unto the court of the high priest, and entered in, and sat with the officers, to see the end.
59 Principes autem sacerdotum, et omne concilium, quærebant falsum testimonium contra Jesum, ut eum morti traderent:
Now the chief priests and the whole council sought false witness against Jesus, that they might put him to death;
60 et non invenerunt, cum multi falsi testes accessissent. Novissime autem venerunt duo falsi testes,
and they found it not, though many false witnesses came. But afterward came two,
61 et dixerunt: Hic dixit: Possum destruere templum Dei, et post triduum reædificare illud.
and said, This man said, I am able to destroy the temple of God, and to build it in three days.
62 Et surgens princeps sacerdotum, ait illi: Nihil respondes ad ea, quæ isti adversum te testificantur?
And the high priest stood up, and said unto him, Answerest thou nothing? what is it which these witness against thee?
63 Jesus autem tacebat. Et princeps sacerdotum ait illi: Adjuro te per Deum vivum, ut dicas nobis si tu es Christus Filius Dei.
But Jesus held his peace. And the high priest said unto him, I adjure thee by the living God, that thou tell us whether thou be the Christ, the Son of God.
64 Dicit illi Jesus: Tu dixisti. Verumtamen dico vobis, amodo videbitis Filium hominis sedentem a dextris virtutis Dei, et venientem in nubibus cæli.
Jesus saith unto him, Thou hast said: nevertheless I say unto you, Henceforth ye shall see the Son of man sitting at the right hand of power, and coming on the clouds of heaven.
65 Tunc princeps sacerdotum scidit vestimenta sua, dicens: Blasphemavit: quid adhuc egemus testibus? ecce nunc audistis blasphemiam:
Then the high priest rent his garments, saying, He hath spoken blasphemy: what further need have we of witnesses? behold, now ye have heard the blasphemy:
66 quid vobis videtur? At illi respondentes dixerunt: Reus est mortis.
what think ye? They answered and said, He is worthy of death.
67 Tunc exspuerunt in faciem ejus, et colaphis eum ceciderunt, alii autem palmas in faciem ejus dederunt,
Then did they spit in his face and buffet him: and some smote him with the palms of their hands,
68 dicentes: Prophetiza nobis Christe, quis est qui te percussit?
saying, Prophesy unto us, thou Christ: who is he that struck thee?
69 Petrus vero sedebat foris in atrio: et accessit ad eum una ancilla, dicens: Et tu cum Jesu Galilæo eras.
Now Peter was sitting without in the court: and a maid came unto him, saying, Thou also wast with Jesus the Galilaean.
70 At ille negavit coram omnibus, dicens: Nescio quid dicis.
But he denied before them all, saying, I know not what thou sayest.
71 Exeunte autem illo januam, vidit eum alia ancilla, et ait his qui erant ibi: Et hic erat cum Jesu Nazareno.
And when he was gone out into the porch, another [maid] saw him, and saith unto them that were there, This man also was with Jesus the Nazarene.
72 Et iterum negavit cum juramento: Quia non novi hominem.
And again he denied with an oath, I know not the man.
73 Et post pusillum accesserunt qui stabant, et dixerunt Petro: Vere et tu ex illis es: nam et loquela tua manifestum te facit.
And after a little while they that stood by came and said to Peter, Of a truth thou also art [one] of them; for thy speech bewrayeth thee.
74 Tunc cœpit detestari et jurare quia non novisset hominem. Et continuo gallus cantavit.
Then began he to curse and to swear, I know not the man. And straightway the cock crew.
75 Et recordatus est Petrus verbi Jesu, quod dixerat: Priusquam gallus cantet, ter me negabis. Et egressus foras, flevit amare.
And Peter remembered the word which Jesus had said, Before the cock crow, thou shalt deny me thrice. And he went out, and wept bitterly.
