1 Timothy
§ 285
1 Timothy § 285
of God is good, and nothing is to be refused if it is received with thanksgiving; for it is sanctified by the word of God and prayer… If you instruct the brethren in these things, you will be a good minister of Jesus Christ, nourished in the words of faith and of the good doctrine which you have carefully followed. But reject profane and old wives’ fables, and exercise yourself rather to godliness. For bodily exercise profits a little, but godliness is profitable for all things, having promise of the life that now is and of that which is to come… Take heed unto yourself, and unto doctrine. Continue in them, for in doing this you shall save both yourself and those who hear you.
Mark 9.33-41
§ 41
Mark 9.33-41 § 41
And he came to Capernaum: and being in the house he asked them, What was it that ye disputed among yourselves by the way?
Καὶ ἦλθεν εἰς Καπερναούμ· καὶ ἐν τῇ οἰκίᾳ γενόμενος ἐπηρώτα αὐτούς· τί ἐν τῇ ὁδῷ πρὸς ἑαυτοὺς διελογίζεσθε;
[Заⷱ҇ 41] И҆ прїи́де въ капернаꙋ́мъ: и҆ въ домꙋ̀ бы́въ, вопроша́ше и҆̀хъ: что̀ на пꙋтѝ въ себѣ̀ помышлѧ́сте;
But they held their peace: for by the way they had disputed among themselves, who should be the greatest.
οἱ δὲ ἐσιώπων· πρὸς ἀλλήλους γὰρ διελέχθησαν ἐν τῇ ὁδῷ τίς μείζων.
Ѻ҆ни́ же молча́хꙋ: дрꙋ́гъ ко дрꙋ́гꙋ бо стѧза́шасѧ на пꙋтѝ, кто̀ (є҆́сть) бо́лїй.
And he sat down, and called the twelve, and saith unto them, If any man desire to be first, the same shall be last of all, and servant of all.
καὶ καθίσας ἐφώνησε τοὺς δώδεκα καὶ λέγει αὐτοῖς· εἴ τις θέλει πρῶτος εἶναι, ἔσται πάντων ἔσχατος καὶ πάντων διάκονος.
И҆ сѣ́дъ пригласѝ ѻ҆бана́десѧте и҆ гл҃а и҆̀мъ: а҆́ще кто̀ хо́щетъ ста́рѣй бы́ти, да бꙋ́детъ всѣ́хъ ме́ньшїй и҆ всѣ́мъ слꙋга̀.
And he took a child, and set him in the midst of them: and when he had taken him in his arms, he said unto them,
καὶ λαβὼν παιδίον ἔστησεν αὐτὸ ἐν μέσῳ αὐτῶν, καὶ ἐναγκαλισάμενος αὐτὸ εἶπεν αὐτοῖς·
И҆ прїи́мь ѻ҆троча̀, поста́ви є҆̀ посредѣ̀ и҆́хъ: и҆ ѡ҆б̾е́мь є҆̀, речѐ и҆̀мъ:
Whosoever shall receive one of such children in my name, receiveth me: and whosoever shall receive me, receiveth not me, but him that sent me.
ὃς ἐὰν ἓν τῶν τοιούτων παιδίων δέξηται ἐπὶ τῷ ὀνόματί μου, ἐμὲ δέχεται· καὶ ὃς ἐὰν ἐμὲ δέξηται, οὐκ ἐμὲ δέχεται, ἀλλὰ τὸν ἀποστείλαντά με.
и҆́же а҆́ще є҆ди́но таковы́хъ ѻ҆троча́тъ прїи́метъ во и҆́мѧ моѐ, менѐ прїе́млетъ: и҆ и҆́же менѐ прїе́млетъ, не менѐ прїе́млетъ, но посла́вшаго мѧ̀.
And John answered him, saying, Master, we saw one casting out devils in thy name, and he followeth not us: and we forbad him, because he followeth not us.
Ἀπεκρίθη αὐτῷ ὁ Ἰωάννης λέγων· διδάσκαλε, εἴδομέν τινα ἐν τῷ ὀνόματί σου ἐκβάλλοντα δαιμόνια, ὃς οὐκ ἀκολουθεῖ ἡμῖν, καὶ ἐκωλύσαμεν αὐτόν, ὅτι οὐκ ἀκολουθεῖ ἡμῖν.
Ѿвѣща̀ є҆мꙋ̀ і҆ѡа́ннъ, глаго́лѧ: ᲂу҆чт҃лю, ви́дѣхомъ нѣ́коего и҆́менемъ твои́мъ и҆згонѧ́ща бѣ́сы, и҆́же не хо́дитъ по на́съ: и҆ возбрани́хомъ є҆мꙋ̀, ꙗ҆́кѡ не послѣ́дꙋетъ на́мъ.
But Jesus said, Forbid him not: for there is no man which shall do a miracle in my name, that can lightly speak evil of me.
ὁ δὲ Ἰησοῦς εἶπε· μὴ κωλύετε αὐτόν· οὐδεὶς γάρ ἐστιν ὃς ποιήσει δύναμιν ἐπὶ τῷ ὀνόματί μου καὶ δυνήσεται ταχὺ κακολογῆσαί με.
І҆и҃съ же речѐ: не брани́те є҆мꙋ̀: никто́же бо є҆́сть, и҆́же сотвори́тъ си́лꙋ ѡ҆ и҆́мени мое́мъ, и҆ возмо́жетъ вско́рѣ ѕлосло́вити мѧ̀.
For he that is not against us is on our part.
ὃς γὰρ οὐκ ἔστι καθ᾿ ὑμῶν, ὑπὲρ ὑμῶν ἐστιν.
И҆́же бо нѣ́сть на вы̀, по ва́съ є҆́сть.
For whosoever shall give you a cup of water to drink in my name, because ye belong to Christ, verily I say unto you, he shall not lose his reward.
ὃς γὰρ ἂν ποτίσῃ ὑμᾶς ποτήριον ὕδατος ἐν τῷ ὀνόματί μου, ὅτι Χριστοῦ ἐστε, ἀμὴν λέγω ὑμῖν, οὐ μὴ ἀπολέσῃ τὸν μισθὸν αὐτοῦ.
И҆́же бо а҆́ще напои́тъ вы̀ ча́шею воды̀ во и҆́мѧ моѐ, ꙗ҆́кѡ хрⷭ҇тѡ́вы є҆стѐ, а҆ми́нь гл҃ю ва́мъ, не погꙋби́тъ мзды̀ своеѧ̀.
