James 1:19–27
§ 51b
James 1:19–27 § 51b
My beloved brethren, let every man be swift to hear, slow to speak, slow to wrath; for the wrath of man does not produce the righteousness of God. Therefore lay aside all filthiness and overflow of wickedness, and receive with meekness the implanted word, which is able to save your souls. But be doers of the word, and not hearers only, deceiving yourselves. For if anyone is a hearer of the word and not a doer, he is like a man observing his natural face in a mirror; for he observes himself, goes away, and immediately forgets what kind of man he was. But he who looks into the perfect law of liberty and continues in it, and is not a forgetful hearer but a doer of the work, this one will be blessed in what he does. If any man among you thinks he is religious, and does not bridle his tongue but deceives his own heart, this one’s religion is useless. Pure and undefiled religion before God and the Father is this: to visit orphans and widows in their trouble, and to keep oneself unspotted from the world.
Mark 9.10-16
§ 39
Mark 9.10-16 § 39
And they kept that saying with themselves, questioning one with another what the rising from the dead should mean.
καὶ τὸν λόγον ἐκράτησαν, πρὸς ἑαυτοὺς συζητοῦντες τί ἐστι τὸ ἐκ νεκρῶν ἀναστῆναι.
[Заⷱ҇ 39] И҆ сло́во ᲂу҆держа́ша въ себѣ̀, стѧза́ющесѧ, что̀ є҆́сть, є҆́же и҆з̾ ме́ртвыхъ воскрⷭ҇нꙋти.
And they asked him, saying, Why say the scribes that Elias must first come?
καὶ ἐπηρώτων αὐτὸν λέγοντες, ὅτι λέγουσιν οἱ γραμματεῖς ὅτι Ἠλίαν δεῖ ἐλθεῖν πρῶτον.
И҆ вопроша́хꙋ є҆го̀ глаго́люще: ка́кѡ глаго́лютъ кни́жницы, ꙗ҆́кѡ и҆лїѝ подоба́етъ прїитѝ пре́жде;
And he answered and told them, Elias verily cometh first, and restoreth all things; and how it is written of the Son of man, that he must suffer many things, and be set at nought.
ὁ δὲ ἀποκριθεὶς εἶπεν αὐτοῖς· Ἠλίας μὲν ἐλθὼν πρῶτον ἀποκαθιστᾷ πάντα· καὶ πῶς γέγραπται ἐπὶ τὸν υἱὸν τοῦ ἀνθρώπου ἵνα πολλὰ πάθῃ καὶ ἐξουδενωθῇ;
Ѻ҆́нъ же ѿвѣща́въ речѐ и҆̀мъ: и҆лїа̀ ᲂу҆́бѡ прише́дъ пре́жде, ᲂу҆стро́итъ всѧ̑: и҆ ка́кѡ є҆́сть пи́сано ѡ҆ сн҃ѣ чл҃вѣ́честѣмъ, да мно́гѡ постра́ждетъ и҆ ᲂу҆ничиже́нъ бꙋ́детъ:
But I say unto you, That Elias is indeed come, and they have done unto him whatsoever they listed, as it is written of him.
ἀλλὰ λέγω ὑμῖν ὅτι καὶ Ἠλίας ἐλήλυθε, καὶ ἐποίησαν αὐτῷ ὅσα ἠθέλησαν, καθὼς γέγραπται ἐπ᾿ αὐτόν.
но гл҃ю ва́мъ, ꙗ҆́кѡ и҆ и҆лїа̀ прїи́де, и҆ сотвори́ша є҆мꙋ̀, є҆ли̑ка хотѣ́ша, ꙗ҆́коже є҆́сть пи́сано ѡ҆ не́мъ.
And when he came to his disciples, he saw a great multitude about them, and the scribes questioning with them.
Καὶ ἐλθὼν πρὸς τοὺς μαθητὰς εἶδεν ὄχλον πολὺν περὶ αὐτούς, καὶ γραμματεῖς συζητοῦντας αὐτοῖς.
И҆ прише́дъ ко ᲂу҆чн҃кѡ́мъ, ви́дѣ наро́дъ мно́гъ ѡ҆ ни́хъ {ѡ҆́крестъ и҆́хъ} и҆ кни́жники стѧза́ющѧсѧ съ ни́ми.
And straightway all the people, when they beheld him, were greatly amazed, and running to him saluted him.
καὶ εὐθέως πᾶς ὁ ὄχλος ἰδόντες αὐτὸν ἐξεθαμβήθησαν, καὶ προστρέχοντες ἠσπάζοντο αὐτόν.
И҆ а҆́бїе ве́сь наро́дъ ви́дѣвъ є҆го̀ ᲂу҆жасе́сѧ, и҆ прири́щꙋще цѣлова́хꙋ є҆го̀.
And he asked the scribes, What question ye with them?
καὶ ἐπηρώτησε τοὺς γραμματεῖς· τί συζητεῖτε πρὸς ἑαυτούς;
И҆ вопросѝ кни́жники: что̀ стѧза́етесѧ къ себѣ̀ {съ ни́ми};
