1 Corinthians 10:28–11:7
§ 147
1 Corinthians 10:28–11:7 § 147
Brethren, if any man says unto you, “this was offered in sacrifice unto idols,” do not eat it for the sake of the one who told you, and for conscience' sake; for “the earth is the Lord's, and all its fullness…” Conscience, I say, not your own, but that of the other. For why is my liberty judged by another man's conscience? For if I partake with thanks, why am I evil spoken of for the food over which I give thanks? Therefore, whether you eat or drink, or whatever you do, do all to the glory of God. Give none offense, neither to the Jews, nor to the Greeks, nor to the Church of God: even as I also please all men in all things, not seeking my own profit, but the profit of many, that they may be saved… Imitate me, even as I also imitate Christ. Now I praise you, brethren, that you remember me in all things and keep the ordinances as I delivered them to you. But I would have you know, that the head of every man is Christ; and the head of woman is man; and the head of Christ is God. Every man praying or prophesying, having his head covered, dishonors his head. But every woman that prays or prophesies with her head uncovered dishonors her head, for that is the same as if her head were shaven. For if a woman be not covered, let her also be shorn: but if it is shameful for a woman to be shorn or shaved, let her be covered. For a man indeed ought not to cover his head, since he is the image and glory of God; but the woman is the glory of man.
Matthew 16.24-28
§ 69
Matthew 16.24-28 § 69
Then said Jesus unto his disciples, If any man will come after me, let him deny himself, and take up his cross, and follow me.
Τότε ὁ Ἰησοῦς εἶπε τοῖς μαθηταῖς αὐτοῦ· εἴ τις θέλει ὀπίσω μου ἐλθεῖν, ἀπαρνησάσθω ἑαυτὸν καὶ ἀράτω τὸν σταυρὸν αὐτοῦ καὶ ἀκολουθείτω μοι.
[Заⷱ҇ 69] Тогда̀ і҆и҃съ речѐ ᲂу҆чн҃кѡ́мъ свои̑мъ: а҆́ще кто̀ хо́щетъ по мнѣ̀ и҆тѝ, да ѿве́ржетсѧ себє̀ и҆ во́зметъ кре́стъ сво́й и҆ по мнѣ̀ грѧде́тъ:
For whosoever will save his life shall lose it: and whosoever will lose his life for my sake shall find it.
ὃς γὰρ ἂν θέλῃ τὴν ψυχὴν αὐτοῦ σῶσαι, ἀπολέσει αὐτήν· ὃς δ᾿ ἂν ἀπολέσῃ τὴν ψυχὴν αὐτοῦ ἕνεκεν ἐμοῦ, εὑρήσει αὐτήν.
и҆́же бо а҆́ще хо́щетъ дꙋ́шꙋ свою̀ спастѝ, погꙋби́тъ ю҆̀: и҆ и҆́же а҆́ще погꙋби́тъ дꙋ́шꙋ свою̀ менє̀ ра́ди, ѡ҆брѧ́щетъ ю҆̀:
For what is a man profited, if he shall gain the whole world, and lose his own soul? or what shall a man give in exchange for his soul?
τί γὰρ ὠφελεῖται ἄνθρωπος ἐὰν τὸν κόσμον ὅλον κερδήσῃ, τὴν δὲ ψυχὴν αὐτοῦ ζημιωθῇ; ἢ τί δώσει ἄνθρωπος ἀντάλλαγμα τῆς ψυχῆς αὐτοῦ;
ка́ѧ бо по́льза человѣ́кꙋ, а҆́ще мі́ръ ве́сь приѡбрѧ́щетъ, дꙋ́шꙋ же свою̀ ѡ҆тщети́тъ; и҆лѝ что̀ да́стъ человѣ́къ и҆змѣ́нꙋ за дꙋ́шꙋ свою̀;
For the Son of man shall come in the glory of his Father with his angels; and then he shall reward every man according to his works.
μέλλει γὰρ ὁ υἱὸς τοῦ ἀνθρώπου ἔρχεσθαι ἐν τῇ δόξῃ τοῦ πατρὸς αὐτοῦ μετὰ τῶν ἀγγέλων αὐτοῦ, καὶ τότε ἀποδώσει ἑκάστῳ κατὰ τὴν πρᾶξιν αὐτοῦ.
прїити́ бо и҆́мать сн҃ъ чл҃вѣ́ческїй во сла́вѣ ѻ҆ц҃а̀ своегѡ̀ со а҆́гг҃лы свои́ми, и҆ тогда̀ возда́стъ комꙋ́ждо по дѣѧ́нїємъ є҆гѡ̀:
Verily I say unto you, There be some standing here, which shall not taste of death, till they see the Son of man coming in his kingdom.
ἀμὴν λέγω ὑμῖν, εἰσί τινες τῶν ὧδε ἑστηκότων, οἵτινες οὐ μὴ γεύσωνται θανάτου ἕως ἂν ἴδωσι τὸν υἱὸν τοῦ ἀνθρώπου ἐρχόμενον ἐν τῇ βασιλείᾳ αὐτοῦ.
а҆ми́нь гл҃ю ва́мъ, (ꙗ҆́кѡ) сꙋ́ть нѣ́цыи ѿ здѣ̀ стоѧ́щихъ, и҆̀же не и҆́мꙋтъ вкꙋси́ти сме́рти, до́ндеже ви́дѧтъ сн҃а чл҃вѣ́ческаго грѧдꙋ́ща во црⷭ҇твїи свое́мъ.
