2 Timothy 2:20–26 § 294

2 Timothy 2:20–26 § 294

My son Timothy, in a great house there are not only vessels of gold and silver, but also of wood and clay, some for honor and some for dishonor. Therefore if anyone cleanses himself from the latter, he will be a vessel for honor, sanctified and useful for the Master, prepared for every good work. Flee also youthful lusts; but pursue righteousness, faith, love, peace with them that call on the Lord out of a pure heart. But avoid foolish and ignorant disputes, knowing that they generate strife. And a servant of the Lord must not quarrel but be gentle unto all men, able to teach, patient, in meekness instructing those that oppose themselves; if God perhaps will grant them repentance, to the acknowledgment of the truth, and that they may recover themselves out of the snare of the devil, having been taken captive by him to do his will.

Mark 12.13-17 § 54

Mark 12.13-17 § 54

13

And they send unto him certain of the Pharisees and of the Herodians, to catch him in his words.

Καὶ ἀποστέλλουσι πρὸς αὐτόν τινας τῶν Φαρισαίων καὶ τῶν Ἡρῳδιανῶν ἵνα αὐτὸν ἀγρεύσωσι λόγῳ.

[Заⷱ҇ 54] И҆ посла́ша къ немꙋ̀ нѣ̑кїѧ ѿ фарїсє́й и҆ и҆рѡдїа́нъ, да є҆го̀ ѡ҆больстѧ́тъ сло́вомъ.

14

And when they were come, they say unto him, Master, we know that thou art true, and carest for no man: for thou regardest not the person of men, but teachest the way of God in truth: Is it lawful to give tribute to Caesar, or not?

οἱ δὲ ἐλθόντες λέγουσιν αὐτῷ· διδάσκαλε, οἴδαμεν ὅτι ἀληθὴς εἶ καὶ οὐ μέλει σοι περὶ οὐδενός· οὐ γὰρ βλέπεις εἰς πρόσωπον ἀνθρώπων, ἀλλ᾿ ἐπ᾿ ἀληθείας τὴν ὁδὸν τοῦ Θεοῦ διδάσκεις. εἶπον οὖν ἡμῖν· ἔξεστι δοῦναι κῆνσον Καίσαρι ἢ οὔ; δῶμεν ἢ μὴ δῶμεν;

Ѻ҆ни́ же прише́дше глаго́лаша є҆мꙋ̀: ᲂу҆чт҃лю, вѣ́мы, ꙗ҆́кѡ и҆́стиненъ є҆сѝ и҆ не ради́ши ни ѡ҆ ко́мже: не зри́ши бо на лицѐ человѣ́кѡвъ, но вои́стиннꙋ пꙋтѝ бж҃їю ᲂу҆чи́ши: досто́итъ ли кинсо́нъ ке́сареви да́ти, и҆лѝ нѝ; да́мы ли, и҆лѝ не да́мы;

15

Shall we give, or shall we not give? But he, knowing their hypocrisy, said unto them, Why tempt ye me? bring me a penny, that I may see it.

ὁ δὲ εἰδὼς αὐτῶν τὴν ὑπόκρισιν εἶπεν αὐτοῖς· τί με πειράζετε; φέρετέ μοι δηνάριον ἵνα ἴδω·

Ѻ҆́нъ же вѣ́дый и҆́хъ лицемѣ́рїе, речѐ и҆̀мъ: что́ мѧ и҆скꙋша́ете; принеси́те мѝ пѣ́нѧзь, да ви́жꙋ.

16

And they brought it. And he saith unto them, Whose is this image and superscription? And they said unto him, Caesar's.

οἱ δὲ ἤνεγκαν. καὶ λέγει αὐτοῖς· τίνος ἡ εἰκὼν αὕτη καὶ ἡ ἐπιγραφή; οἱ δὲ εἶπον· Καίσαρος.

Ѻ҆ни́ же принесо́ша. И҆ гл҃а и҆̀мъ: чі́й ѡ҆́бразъ сі́й и҆ написа́нїе; Ѻ҆ни́ же рѣ́ша є҆мꙋ̀: ке́саревъ.

17

And Jesus answering said unto them, Render to Caesar the things that are Caesar's, and to God the things that are God's. And they marvelled at him.

καὶ ἀποκριθεὶς ὁ Ἰησοῦς εἶπεν αὐτοῖς· ἀπόδοτε τὰ Καίσαρος Καίσαρι καὶ τὰ τοῦ Θεοῦ τῷ Θεῷ· καὶ ἐθαύμασαν ἐπ᾿ αὐτῷ.

И҆ ѿвѣща́въ і҆и҃съ речѐ и҆̀мъ: воздади́те ке́сарєва ке́сареви и҆ бж҃їѧ бг҃ови. И҆ чꙋди́шасѧ ѡ҆ не́мъ.
