2 Timothy § 290

2 Timothy § 290

of Jesus Christ by the will of God, according to the promise of life which is in Christ Jesus, to Timothy, my beloved son: grace, mercy, and peace from God the Father and Christ Jesus our Lord… Therefore do not be ashamed of the testimony of our Lord, nor of me His prisoner, but share with me in the sufferings for the Gospel according to the power of God, who has saved us, and called us with a holy calling, not according to our works, but according to His own purpose and grace, which was given to us in Christ Jesus before time began … But is now made manifest by the appearing of our Savior Jesus Christ, who has abolished death, and has brought life and immortality to light through the Gospel, to which I was appointed a preacher, an Apostle, and a teacher of the Gentiles. For this reason I also suffer these things; nevertheless I am not ashamed, for I know whom I have believed and am persuaded that He is able to keep what I have committed to Him until that day. Hold fast the form of sound words which you have heard from me, in faith and love which are in Christ Jesus. That good thing which was committed to you, keep by the Holy Spirit who dwells in us. This you know, that all they which were in Asia have turned away from me, among whom are Phygéllus and Hermógenes. The Lord grant mercy unto the house of Onesíphorus, for he often refreshed me, and was not ashamed of my chain; but when he arrived in Rome, he sought me out very diligently and found me. The Lord grant unto him that he may find mercy from the Lord in that day: and in how many ways he ministered unto me at Éphesus, you know very well.

Luke 21.37-22.8 § 108

Luke 21.37-22.8 § 108

Chapter 21

37

And in the day time he was teaching in the temple; and at night he went out, and abode in the mount that is called the mount of Olives.

Ἦν δὲ τὰς ἡμέρας ἐν τῷ ἱερῷ διδάσκων, τὰς δὲ νύκτας ἐξερχόμενος ηὐλίζετο εἰς τὸ ὄρος τὸ καλούμενον ἐλαιῶν·

[Заⷱ҇ 108] Бѣ́ же во дни̑ во це́ркви ᲂу҆чѧ̀: но́щїю же и҆сходѧ̀ водворѧ́шесѧ въ горѣ̀ нарица́емѣй є҆леѡ́нъ.

38

And all the people came early in the morning to him in the temple, for to hear him.

καὶ πᾶς ὁ λαὸς ὤρθριζε πρὸς αὐτὸν ἐν τῷ ὄρει ἀκούειν αὐτοῦ.

И҆ всѝ лю́дїе и҆з̾ ᲂу҆́тра прихожда́хꙋ къ немꙋ̀ во це́рковь послꙋ́шати є҆го̀.

Chapter 22

1

NOW the feast of unleavened bread drew nigh, which is called the Passover.

Ἤγγιζε δὲ ἡ ἑορτὴ τῶν ἀζύμων ἡ λεγομένη πάσχα.

Приближа́шесѧ же пра́здникъ ѡ҆прѣснѡ́къ, глаго́лемый па́сха:

2

And the chief priests and scribes sought how they might kill him; for they feared the people.

καὶ ἐζήτουν οἱ ἀρχιερεῖς καὶ οἱ γραμματεῖς τὸ πῶς ἀνέλωσιν αὐτόν· ἐφοβοῦντο γὰρ τὸν λαόν.

и҆ и҆ска́хꙋ а҆рхїере́є и҆ кни́жницы, ка́кѡ бы ᲂу҆би́ли є҆го̀: боѧ́хꙋсѧ бо люді́й.

3

Then entered Satan into Judas surnamed Iscariot, being of the number of the twelve.

εἰσῆλθε δὲ ὁ σατανᾶς εἰς Ἰούδαν τὸν ἐπικαλούμενον Ἰσκαριώτην, ὄντα ἐκ τοῦ ἀριθμοῦ τῶν δώδεκα,

Вни́де же сатана̀ во і҆ꙋ́дꙋ нарица́емаго і҆скарїѡ́тъ, сꙋ́ща ѿ числа̀ ѻ҆боюна́десѧте,

4

And he went his way, and communed with the chief priests and captains, how he might betray him unto them.

καὶ ἀπελθὼν συνελάλησε τοῖς ἀρχιερεῦσι καὶ γραμματεῦσι καὶ στρατηγοῖς τὸ πῶς αὐτὸν παραδῶ αὐτοῖς.

и҆ ше́дъ глаго́ла а҆рхїере́ѡмъ и҆ воево́дамъ, ка́кѡ є҆го̀ преда́стъ и҆̀мъ.

5

And they were glad, and covenanted to give him money.

καὶ ἐχάρησαν, καὶ συνέθεντο αὐτῷ ἀργύρια δοῦναι·

И҆ возра́довашасѧ и҆ совѣща́ша є҆мꙋ̀ сре́бреники да́ти:

6

And he promised, and sought opportunity to betray him unto them in the absence of the multitude.

καὶ ἐξωμολόγησε, καὶ ἐζήτει εὐκαιρίαν τοῦ παραδοῦναι αὐτὸν αὐτοῖς ἄτερ ὄχλου.

и҆ и҆сповѣ́да {ѡ҆бѣща́сѧ} и҆ и҆ска́ше ᲂу҆до́бна вре́мене, да преда́стъ є҆го̀ и҆̀мъ без̾ наро́да.

7

Then came the day of unleavened bread, when the passover must be killed.

Ἦλθε δὲ ἡ ἡμέρα τῶν ἀζύμων, ἐν ᾗ ἔδει θύεσθαι τὸ πάσχα,

Прїи́де же де́нь ѡ҆прѣсно́кѡвъ, во́ньже подоба́ше жре́ти па́схꙋ:

8

And he sent Peter and John, saying, Go and prepare us the passover, that we may eat.

καὶ ἀπέστειλε Πέτρον καὶ Ἰωάννην εἰπών· πορευθέντες ἑτοιμάσατε ἡμῖν τὸ πάσχα ἵνα φάγωμεν.

и҆ посла̀ петра̀ и҆ і҆ѡа́нна, ре́къ: шє́дша ᲂу҆гото́вайта на́мъ па́схꙋ, да ꙗ҆́мы.
