Ephesians 3:8–21 § 223

Ephesians 3:8–21 § 223

Brethren, To me, who am less than the least of all the saints, this grace was given, that I should preach among the Gentiles the unsearchable riches of Christ, and to make all people see what is the fellowship of the mystery, which from the beginning of the ages has been hidden in God who created all things through Jesus Christ; to the intent that now the manifold wisdom of God might be made known by the Church unto the principalities and powers in the heavenly places, according to the eternal purpose which He accomplished in Christ Jesus our Lord, in whom we have boldness and access with confidence through faith in Him. Therefore I ask that you do not lose heart at my tribulations for you, which is your glory. For this reason I bow my knees unto the Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, from whom the whole family in heaven and earth is named, that He would grant you, according to the riches of His glory, to be strengthened with might through His Spirit in the inner man, that Christ may dwell in your hearts through faith; that you, being rooted and grounded in love, may be able to comprehend with all the saints what is the width and length and depth and height; and to know the love of Christ which passes knowledge; that you may be filled with all the fullness of God. Now unto Him who is able to do exceedingly abundantly above all that we ask or think, according to the power that works in us, unto Him be glory in the Church by Christ Jesus to all generations, for ever and ever. Amen.

Luke 6.46-7.1 § 28

Luke 6.46-7.1 § 28

Chapter 6

46

And why call ye me, Lord, Lord, and do not the things which I say?

Τί δέ με καλεῖτε Κύριε Κύριε, καὶ οὐ ποιεῖτε ἃ λέγω;

[Заⷱ҇ 28] Что́ же мѧ̀ зоветѐ: гдⷭ҇и, гдⷭ҇и, и҆ не творитѐ, ꙗ҆̀же гл҃ю;

47

Whosoever cometh to me, and heareth my sayings, and doeth them, I will shew you to whom he is like:

πᾶς ὁ ἐρχόμενος πρός με καὶ ἀκούων μου τῶν λόγων καὶ ποιῶν αὐτούς, ὑποδείξω ὑμῖν τίνι ἐστὶν ὅμοιος·

Всѧ́къ грѧды́й ко мнѣ̀ и҆ слы́шай словеса̀ моѧ̑ и҆ творѧ̀ ѧ҆̀, скажꙋ̀ ва́мъ, комꙋ̀ є҆́сть подо́бенъ:

48

He is like a man which built an house, and digged deep, and laid the foundation on a rock: and when the flood arose, the stream beat vehemently upon that house, and could not shake it: for it was founded upon a rock.

ὅμοιός ἐστιν ἀνθρώπῳ οἰκοδομοῦντι οἰκίαν, ὃς καὶ ἔσκαψε καὶ ἐβάθυνε καὶ ἔθηκε θεμέλιον ἐπὶ τὴν πέτραν· πλημμύρας δὲ γενομένης προσέρρηξεν ὁ ποταμὸς τῇ οἰκίᾳ ἐκείνῃ, καὶ οὐκ ἴσχυσε σαλεῦσαι αὐτήν· τεθεμελίωτο γὰρ ἐπὶ τὴν πέτραν.

подо́бенъ є҆́сть человѣ́кꙋ зи́ждꙋщꙋ хра́минꙋ, и҆́же и҆скопа̀ и҆ ᲂу҆глꙋбѝ, и҆ положѝ ѡ҆снова́нїе на ка́мени: наводне́нїю же бы́вшꙋ, припадѐ рѣка̀ ко хра́минѣ то́й, и҆ не мо́же поколеба́ти є҆ѧ̀: ѡ҆снована́ бо бѣ̀ на ка́мени.

49

But he that heareth, and doeth not, is like a man that without a foundation built an house upon the earth; against which the stream did beat vehemently, and immediately it fell; and the ruin of that house was great.

ὁ δὲ ἀκούσας καὶ μὴ ποιήσας ὅμοιός ἐστιν ἀνθρώπῳ οἰκοδομήσαντι οἰκίαν ἐπὶ τὴν γῆν χωρὶς θεμελίου· ᾗ προσέρρηξεν ὁ ποταμός, καὶ εὐθὺς ἔπεσε, καὶ ἐγένετο τὸ ρῆγμα τῆς οἰκίας ἐκείνης μέγα.

Слы́шавый же и҆ не сотвори́вый подо́бенъ є҆́сть человѣ́кꙋ созда́вшемꙋ хра́минꙋ на землѝ без̾ ѡ҆снова́нїѧ: къ не́йже припадѐ рѣка̀, и҆ а҆́бїе паде́сѧ, и҆ бы́сть разрꙋше́нїе хра́мины тоѧ̀ ве́лїе.

Chapter 7

1

NOW when he had ended all his sayings in the audience of the people, he entered into Capernaum.

Ἐπεὶ δὲ ἐπλήρωσε πάντα τὰ ρήματα αὐτοῦ εἰς τὰς ἀκοὰς τοῦ λαοῦ, εἰσῆλθεν εἰς Καπερναούμ.

Є҆гда́ же сконча̀ всѧ̑ гл҃го́лы своѧ̑ въ слꙋ́хи лю́демъ, [Заⷱ҇ 29] вни́де въ капернаꙋ́мъ.
