Ephesians 5:33–6:9
§ 232
Ephesians 5:33–6:9 § 232
Brethren, let each one of you in particular so love his own wife even as himself … and let the wife see that she respects her husband… Children, obey your parents in the Lord, for this is right. “Honor thy father and mother,” which is the first commandment with promise: “that it may be well with thee, and thou mayest live long on the earth.” And you, fathers, do not provoke your children to wrath, but bring them up in the nurture and admonition of the Lord. Servants, be obedient to them that are your masters according to the flesh, with fear and trembling, in sincerity of heart, as unto Christ; not with eyeservice, as men-pleasers, but as the servants of Christ, doing the will of God from the heart, with good will doing service, as to the Lord, and not to men, knowing that whatever good anyone does, he will receive the same from the Lord, whether he be bond or free. And you, masters, do the same things unto them, forbearing threatening: knowing that your own Master also is in heaven, and there is no partiality with Him.
Luke 6.12-19
§ 23
Luke 6.12-19 § 23
And it came to pass in those days, that he went out into a mountain to pray, and continued all night in prayer to God.
Ἐγένετο δὲ ἐν ταῖς ἡμέραις ταύταις ἐξῆλθεν εἰς τὸ ὄρος προσεύξασθαι καὶ ἦν διανυκτερεύων ἐν τῇ προσευχῇ τοῦ Θεοῦ.
[Заⷱ҇ 23] Бы́сть же во дни̑ ты̑ѧ, и҆зы́де въ го́рꙋ помоли́тисѧ: и҆ бѣ̀ ѡ҆б̾ но́щь въ мл҃твѣ бж҃їи.
And when it was day, he called unto him his disciples: and of them he chose twelve, whom also he named apostles;
καὶ ὅτε ἐγένετο ἡμέρα, προσεφώνησε τοὺς μαθητὰς αὐτοῦ, καὶ ἐκλεξάμενος ἀπ᾿ αὐτῶν δώδεκα, οὓς καὶ ἀποστόλους ὠνόμασε,
И҆ є҆гда̀ бы́сть де́нь, призва̀ ᲂу҆чн҃кѝ своѧ̑: и҆ и҆збра̀ ѿ ни́хъ двана́десѧте, и҆̀хже и҆ а҆пⷭ҇лы наречѐ:
Simon, (whom he also named Peter,) and Andrew his brother, James and John, Philip and Bartholomew,
Σίμωνα, ὃν καὶ ὠνόμασε Πέτρον, καὶ Ἀνδρέαν τὸν ἀδελφὸν αὐτοῦ, Ἰάκωβον καὶ Ἰωάννην, Φίλιππον καὶ Βαρθολομαῖον,
сі́мѡна, є҆го́же и҆менова̀ петра̀, и҆ а҆ндре́а бра́та є҆гѡ̀, і҆а́кѡва и҆ і҆ѡа́нна, фїлі́ппа и҆ варѳоломе́а,
Matthew and Thomas, James the son of Alphaeus, and Simon called Zelotes,
Ματθαῖον καὶ Θωμᾶν, Ἰάκωβον τὸν τοῦ Ἀλφαίου καὶ Σίμωνα τὸν καλούμενον Ζηλωτήν,
матѳе́а и҆ ѳѡмꙋ̀, і҆а́кѡва а҆лфе́ева и҆ сі́мѡна нарица́емаго зилѡ́та,
And Judas the brother of James, and Judas Iscariot, which also was the traitor.
Ἰούδαν Ἰακώβου καὶ Ἰούδαν Ἰσκαριώτην, ὃς καὶ ἐγένετο προδότης,
і҆ꙋ́дꙋ і҆а́кѡвлѧ, и҆ і҆ꙋ́дꙋ і҆скарїѡ́тскаго, и҆́же и҆ бы́сть преда́тель.
And he came down with them, and stood in the plain, and the company of his disciples, and a great multitude of people out of all Judaea and Jerusalem, and from the sea coast of Tyre and Sidon, which came to hear him, and to be healed of their diseases;
καὶ καταβὰς μετ᾿ αὐτῶν ἔστη ἐπὶ τόπου πεδινοῦ, καὶ ὄχλος μαθητῶν αὐτοῦ, καὶ πλῆθος πολὺ τοῦ λαοῦ ἀπὸ πάσης τῆς Ἰουδαίας καὶ Ἱερουσαλὴμ καὶ τῆς παραλίου Τύρου καὶ Σιδῶνος, οἳ ἦλθον ἀκοῦσαι αὐτοῦ καὶ ἰαθῆναι ἀπὸ τῶν νόσων αὐτῶν,
[Заⷱ҇ 24] И҆зше́дъ съ ни́ми, ста̀ на мѣ́стѣ ра́внѣ: и҆ наро́дъ ᲂу҆чн҃къ є҆гѡ̀, и҆ мно́жество мно́го люді́й ѿ всеѧ̀ і҆ꙋде́и и҆ і҆ерⷭ҇ли́ма, и҆ помо́рїѧ тѵ́рска и҆ сїдѡ́нска,
And they that were vexed with unclean spirits: and they were healed.
καὶ οἱ ὀχλούμενοι ἀπὸ πνευμάτων ἀκαθάρτων, καὶ ἐθεραπεύοντο·
и҆̀же прїидо́ша послꙋ́шати є҆гѡ̀ и҆ и҆сцѣли́тисѧ ѿ недꙋ̑гъ свои́хъ, и҆ стра́ждꙋщїи ѿ дꙋ̑хъ нечи́стыхъ: и҆ и҆сцѣлѧ́хꙋсѧ.
And the whole multitude sought to touch him: for there went virtue out of him, and healed them all.
καὶ πᾶς ὁ ὄχλος ἐζήτει ἅπτεσθαι αὐτοῦ, ὅτι δύναμις παρ᾿ αὐτοῦ ἐξήρχετο καὶ ἰᾶτο πάντας.
И҆ ве́сь наро́дъ и҆ска́ше прикаса́тисѧ є҆мꙋ̀: ꙗ҆́кѡ си́ла ѿ негѡ̀ и҆схожда́ше и҆ и҆сцѣлѧ́ше всѧ̑.
