Romans 1:7–12
§ 79ctr
Romans 1:7–12 § 79ctr
Brethren, grace to you and peace, from God our Father and the Lord Jesus Christ… First, I thank my God through Jesus Christ for you all, that your faith is spoken of throughout the whole world. For God is my witness, whom I serve with my spirit in the Gospel of His Son, that without ceasing I make mention of you always in my prayers; making request if, by some means, now at last I may find a way in the will of God to come to you. For I long to see you, that I may impart unto you some spiritual gift, so that you may be established—that is, that I may be comforted together with you by the mutual faith both of you and me…
1 Corinthians 4:9–16 (Apostles) § 131
Apostles
Brethren, I think that God has shown us, the Apostles, last, as men condemned to death; for we have been made a spectacle unto the world, both to Angels and to men. We are fools for Christ’s sake, but you are wise in Christ! We are weak, but you are strong! You are honored, but we are despised! To the present hour we both hunger, and thirst, and are naked, and beaten, and homeless. And we labor, working with our own hands. Being reviled, we bless; being persecuted, we endure; being defamed, we entreat. We have been made as the filth of the world, and are the offscouring of all things unto this day. I do not write these things to shame you, but as my beloved sons I warn you. For though you have ten thousand instructors in Christ, yet you do not have many fathers; for in Christ Jesus I have begotten you through the Gospel. Therefore I beseech you, to follow me.
Matthew 5.42-48
§ 15
Matthew 5.42-48 § 15
Give to him that asketh thee, and from him that would borrow of thee turn not thou away.
τῷ αἰτοῦντί σε δίδου καὶ τὸν θέλοντα ἀπὸ σοῦ δανείσασθαι μὴ ἀποστραφῇς.
[Заⷱ҇ 15] Просѧ́щемꙋ ᲂу҆ тебє̀ да́й, и҆ хотѧ́щаго ѿ тебє̀ заѧ́ти не ѿвратѝ.
Ye have heard that it hath been said, Thou shalt love thy neighbour, and hate thine enemy.
Ἠκούσατε ὅτι ἐρρέθη, ἀγαπήσεις τὸν πλησίον σου καὶ μισήσεις τὸν ἐχθρόν σου.
Слы́шасте, ꙗ҆́кѡ рече́но є҆́сть: возлю́биши и҆́скреннѧго твоего̀ и҆ возненави́диши врага̀ твоего̀.
But I say unto you, Love your enemies, bless them that curse you, do good to them that hate you, and pray for them which despitefully use you, and persecute you;
Ἐγὼ δὲ λέγω ὑμῖν, ἀγαπᾶτε τοὺς ἐχθροὺς ὑμῶν, εὐλογεῖτε τοὺς καταρωμένους ὑμᾶς, καλῶς ποιεῖτε τοῖς μισοῦσιν ὑμᾶς καὶ προσεύχεσθε ὑπὲρ τῶν ἐπηρεαζόντων ὑμᾶς καὶ διωκόντων ὑμᾶς.
А҆́зъ же гл҃ю ва́мъ: люби́те врагѝ ва́шѧ, благослови́те кленꙋ́щыѧ вы̀, добро̀ твори́те ненави́дѧщымъ ва́съ, и҆ моли́тесѧ за творѧ́щихъ ва́мъ напа́сть и҆ и҆згонѧ́щыѧ вы̀,
That ye may be the children of your Father which is in heaven: for he maketh his sun to rise on the evil and on the good, and sendeth rain on the just and on the unjust.
ὅπως γένησθε υἱοὶ τοῦ πατρὸς ὑμῶν τοῦ ἐν οὐρανοῖς, ὅτι τὸν ἥλιον αὐτοῦ ἀνατέλλει ἐπὶ πονηροὺς καὶ ἀγαθοὺς καὶ βρέχει ἐπὶ δικαίους καὶ ἀδίκους.
ꙗ҆́кѡ да бꙋ́дете сн҃ове ѻ҆ц҃а̀ ва́шегѡ, и҆́же є҆́сть на нб҃сѣ́хъ: ꙗ҆́кѡ со́лнце своѐ сїѧ́етъ на ѕлы̑ѧ и҆ бл҃гі̑ѧ и҆ дожди́тъ на првⷣныѧ и҆ на непра́вєдныѧ.
For if ye love them which love you, what reward have ye? do not even the publicans the same?
ἐὰν γὰρ ἀγαπήσητε τοὺς ἀγαπῶντας ὑμᾶς, τίνα μισθὸν ἔχετε; οὐχὶ καὶ οἱ τελῶναι τὸ αὐτὸ ποιοῦσι;
А҆́ще бо лю́бите лю́бѧщихъ ва́съ, кꙋ́ю мздꙋ̀ и҆́мате; не и҆ мытари̑ ли то́жде творѧ́тъ;
And if ye salute your brethren only, what do ye more than others? do not even the publicans so?
καὶ ἐὰν ἀσπάσησθε τοὺς φίλους ὑμῶν μόνον, τί περισσὸν ποιεῖτε; οὐχὶ καὶ οἱ τελῶναι οὕτω ποιοῦσιν;
И҆ а҆́ще цѣлꙋ́ете дрꙋ́ги ва́шѧ то́кмѡ, что̀ ли́шше творитѐ; не и҆ ꙗ҆зы̑чницы ли та́кожде творѧ́тъ;
Be ye therefore perfect, even as your Father which is in heaven is perfect.
Ἔσεσθε οὖν ὑμεῖς τέλειοι, ὥσπερ ὁ πατὴρ ὑμῶν ὁ ἐν τοῖς οὐρανοῖς τέλειός ἐστιν.
Бꙋ́дите ᲂу҆̀бо вы̀ соверше́ни, ꙗ҆́коже ѻ҆ц҃ъ ва́шъ нбⷭ҇ный соверше́нъ є҆́сть.
Mark 3.13-19 (Apostles) § 12
Apostles
And he goeth up into a mountain, and calleth unto him whom he would: and they came unto him.
Καὶ ἀναβαίνει εἰς τὸ ὄρος, καὶ προσκαλεῖται οὓς ἤθελεν αὐτός, καὶ ἀπῆλθον πρὸς αὐτόν.
[Заⷱ҇ 12] И҆ взы́де на горꙋ̀ и҆ призва̀, и҆̀хже хотѧ́ше са́мъ: и҆ прїидо́ша къ немꙋ̀.
And he ordained twelve, that they should be with him, and that he might send them forth to preach,
καὶ ἐποίησε δώδεκα, ἵνα ὦσι μετ᾿ αὐτοῦ καὶ ἵνα ἀποστέλλῃ αὐτοὺς κηρύσσειν
И҆ сотворѝ двана́десѧте, да бꙋ́дꙋтъ съ ни́мъ, и҆ да посыла́етъ и҆̀хъ проповѣ́дати,
And to have power to heal sicknesses, and to cast out devils:
καὶ ἔχειν ἐξουσίαν θεραπεύειν τὰς νόσους καὶ ἐκβάλλειν τὰ δαιμόνια·
и҆ и҆мѣ́ти вла́сть цѣли́ти недꙋ́ги и҆ и҆згони́ти бѣ́сы:
And Simon he surnamed Peter;
καὶ ἐπέθηκεν ὄνομα τῷ Σίμωνι Πέτρον,
и҆ наречѐ сі́мѡнꙋ и҆́мѧ пе́тръ:
And James the son of Zebedee, and John the brother of James; and he surnamed them Boanerges, which is, The sons of thunder:
καὶ Ἰάκωβον τὸν τοῦ Ζεβεδαίου καὶ Ἰωάννην τὸν ἀδελφὸν τοῦ Ἰακώβου· καὶ ἐπέθηκεν αὐτοῖς ὀνόματα Βοανεργές, ὅ ἐστιν υἱοὶ βροντῆς·
и҆ і҆а́кѡва зеведе́ова и҆ і҆ѡа́нна бра́та і҆а́кѡвлѧ: и҆ наречѐ и҆́ма и҆мена̀ воанерге́съ, є҆́же є҆́сть сы̑на гро́мѡва:
And Andrew, and Philip, and Bartholomew, and Matthew, and Thomas, and James the son of Alphaeus, and Thaddaeus, and Simon the Canaanite,
καὶ Ἀνδρέαν καὶ Φίλιππον καὶ Βαρθολομαῖον καὶ Ματθαῖον καὶ Θωμᾶν καὶ Ἰάκωβον τὸν τοῦ Ἀλφαίου καὶ Θαδδαῖον καὶ Σίμωνα τὸν Κανανίτην
и҆ а҆ндре́а, и҆ фїлі́ппа, и҆ варѳоломе́а, и҆ матѳе́а, и҆ ѳѡмꙋ̀, и҆ і҆а́кѡва а҆лфе́ова, и҆ ѳадде́а, и҆ сі́мѡна канані́та,
And Judas Iscariot, which also betrayed him: and they went into an house.
καὶ Ἰούδαν Ἰσκαριώτην, ὃς καὶ παρέδωκεν αὐτόν.
и҆ і҆ꙋ́дꙋ і҆скарїѡ́тскаго, и҆́же и҆ предадѐ є҆го̀.
