1 Corinthians 15:29–38 § 161

1 Corinthians 15:29–38 § 161

Brethren, what shall they do which are baptized for the dead, if the dead do not rise at all? Why then are they baptized for the dead? And why do we stand in jeopardy every hour? I affirm, by the rejoicing in you which I have in Christ Jesus our Lord, I die daily. If, in the manner of men, I have fought with beasts at Éphesus, what advantage is it to me? If the dead do not rise, “Let us eat and drink, for tomorrow we die.” Do not be deceived: “Evil company corrupts good habits.” Awake to righteousness, and do not sin; for some do not have the knowledge of God. I speak this to your shame. But someone will say, “How are the dead raised up? And with what body do they come?” You fool! What you sow is not made alive unless it dies. And what you sow, you do not sow that body that shall be, but mere grain; perhaps wheat or some other grain. But God gives it a body as it has pleased Him, and to every seed his own body.

Colossians 1:12–18 (Image) § 250

Image

Brethren, give thanks unto God the Father who has made us worthy to be partakers of the inheritance of the saints in the light. Who has delivered us from the power of darkness and translated us into the Kingdom of His dear Son, in Whom we have redemption through His Blood, even the forgiveness of sins. Who is the image of the invisible God, the firstborn of all creation. For by Him all things were made that are in heaven and that are on earth, [both] visible and invisible, whether they be thrones or dominions or principalities or powers. All things were created by Him and for Him. And He is before all things, and in Him all things consist… And He is the head of the body, the Church, who is the beginning, the firstborn from the dead; that in all things He may be preeminent…

Matthew 21.23-27 § 85

Matthew 21.23-27 § 85

23

And when he was come into the temple, the chief priests and the elders of the people came unto him as he was teaching, and said, By what authority doest thou these things? and who gave thee this authority?

Καὶ ἐλθόντι αὐτῷ εἰς τὸ ἱερὸν προσῆλθον αὐτῷ διδάσκοντι οἱ ἀρχιερεῖς καὶ οἱ πρεσβύτεροι τοῦ λαοῦ λέγοντες· ἐν ποίᾳ ἐξουσίᾳ ταῦτα ποιεῖς, καὶ τίς σοι ἔδωκε τὴν ἐξουσίαν ταύτην;

[Заⷱ҇ 85] И҆ прише́дшꙋ є҆мꙋ̀ въ це́рковь, пристꙋпи́ша къ немꙋ̀ ᲂу҆ча́щꙋ а҆рхїере́є и҆ ста́рцы людсті́и, глаго́люще: ко́ею вла́стїю сїѧ̑ твори́ши; и҆ кто́ ти дадѐ вла́сть сїю̀;

24

And Jesus answered and said unto them, I also will ask you one thing, which if ye tell me, I in like wise will tell you by what authority I do these things.

ἀποκριθεὶς δὲ ὁ Ἰησοῦς εἶπεν αὐτοῖς· ἐρωτήσω ὑμᾶς κἀγὼ λόγον ἕνα, ὃν ἐὰν εἴπητέ μοι, κἀγὼ ὑμῖν ἐρῶ ἐν ποίᾳ ἐξουσίᾳ ταῦτα ποιῶ.

Ѿвѣща́въ же і҆и҃съ речѐ и҆̀мъ: вопрошꙋ́ вы и҆ а҆́зъ сло́во є҆ди́но: є҆́же а҆́ще рече́те мнѣ̀, и҆ а҆́зъ ва́мъ рекꙋ̀, ко́ею вла́стїю сїѧ̑ творю̀:

25

The baptism of John, whence was it? from heaven, or of men? And they reasoned with themselves, saying, If we shall say, From heaven; he will say unto us, Why did ye not then believe him?

τὸ βάπτισμα Ἰωάννου πόθεν ἦν, ἐξ οὐρανοῦ ἢ ἐξ ἀνθρώπων; οἱ δὲ διελογίζοντο παρ᾿ ἑαυτοῖς λέγοντες· ἐὰν εἴπωμεν, ἐξ οὐρανοῦ, ἐρεῖ ἡμῖν, διατί οὖν οὐκ ἐπιστεύσατε αὐτῷ·

кр҃ще́нїе і҆ѡа́нново ѿкꙋ́дꙋ бѣ̀; съ нб҃се́ ли, и҆лѝ ѿ человѣ̑къ; Ѻ҆ни́ же помышлѧ́хꙋ въ себѣ̀, глаго́люще: а҆́ще рече́мъ, съ нб҃сѐ: рече́тъ на́мъ: почто̀ ᲂу҆̀бо не вѣ́ровасте є҆мꙋ̀;

26

But if we shall say, Of men; we fear the people; for all hold John as a prophet.

ἐὰν δὲ εἴπωμεν, ἐξ ἀνθρώπων, φοβούμεθα τὸν ὄχλον, πάντες γὰρ ἔχουσι τὸν Ἰωάννην ὡς προφήτην.

а҆́ще ли рече́мъ, ѿ человѣ̑къ: бои́мсѧ наро́да: вси́ бо и҆́мꙋтъ і҆ѡа́нна ꙗ҆́кѡ прⷪ҇ро́ка.

27

And they answered Jesus, and said, We cannot tell. And he said unto them, Neither tell I you by what authority I do these things.

καὶ ἀποκριθέντες τῷ Ἰησοῦ εἶπον· οὐκ οἴδαμεν. ἔφη αὐτοῖς καὶ αὐτός· οὐδὲ ἐγὼ λέγω ὑμῖν ἐν ποίᾳ ἐξουσίᾳ ταῦτα ποιῶ.

И҆ ѿвѣща́вше і҆и҃сови рѣ́ша: не вѣ́мы. Речѐ и҆̀мъ и҆ то́й: ни а҆́зъ ва́мъ гл҃ю, ко́ею вла́стїю сїѧ̑ творю̀.

Chapter 9

51

And it came to pass, when the time was come that he should be received up, he stedfastly set his face to go to Jerusalem,

Ἐγένετο δὲ ἐν τῷ συμπληροῦσθαι τὰς ἡμέρας τῆς ἀναλήψεως αὐτοῦ καὶ αὐτὸς ἐστήριξε τὸ πρόσωπον αὐτοῦ τοῦ πορεύεσθαι εἰς Ἱερουσαλήμ,

[Заⷱ҇] Бы́сть же є҆гда̀ скончава́хꙋсѧ дні́е восхожде́нїю є҆гѡ̀, и҆ то́й ᲂу҆твердѝ лицѐ своѐ и҆тѝ во і҆ерⷭ҇ли́мъ:

52

And sent messengers before his face: and they went, and entered into a village of the Samaritans, to make ready for him.

καὶ ἀπέστειλεν ἀγγέλους πρὸ προσώπου αὐτοῦ. καὶ πορευθέντες εἰσῆλθον εἰς κώμην Σαμαρειτῶν, ὥστε ἑτοιμάσαι αὐτῷ·

и҆ посла̀ вѣ́стники пред̾ лице́мъ свои́мъ: и҆ и҆зше́дше внидо́ша въ ве́сь самарѧ́нскꙋ, ꙗ҆́кѡ да ᲂу҆гото́вѧтъ є҆мꙋ̀:

53

And they did not receive him, because his face was as though he would go to Jerusalem.

καὶ οὐκ ἐδέξαντο αὐτόν, ὅτι τὸ πρόσωπον αὐτοῦ ἦν πορευόμενον εἰς Ἱερουσαλήμ.

и҆ не прїѧ́ша є҆гѡ̀, ꙗ҆́кѡ лицѐ є҆гѡ̀ бѣ̀ грѧдꙋ́щее во і҆ерⷭ҇ли́мъ.

54

And when his disciples James and John saw this, they said, Lord, wilt thou that we command fire to come down from heaven, and consume them, even as Elias did?

ἰδόντες δὲ οἱ μαθηταὶ αὐτοῦ Ἰάκωβος καὶ Ἰωάννης εἶπον· Κύριε, θέλεις εἴπωμεν πῦρ καταβῆναι ἀπὸ οὐρανοῦ καὶ ἀναλῶσαι αὐτούς, ὡς καὶ Ἠλίας ἐποίησε;

Ви̑дѣвша же ᲂу҆чн҃ка̑ є҆гѡ̀ і҆а́кѡвъ и҆ і҆ѡа́ннъ, рѣ́ста: гдⷭ҇и, хо́щеши ли, рече́ма, да ѻ҆́гнь сни́детъ съ небесѐ и҆ потреби́тъ и҆̀хъ, ꙗ҆́коже и҆ и҆лїа̀ сотворѝ;

55

But he turned, and rebuked them, and said, Ye know not what manner of spirit ye are of.

στραφεὶς δὲ ἐπετίμησεν αὐτοῖς καὶ εἶπεν· οὐκ οἴδατε ποίου πνεύματός ἐστε ὑμεῖς·

Ѡ҆бра́щьсѧ же запретѝ и҆́ма, и҆ речѐ: не вѣ́ста, ко́егѡ дꙋ́ха є҆ста̀ вы̀:

56

For the Son of man is not come to destroy men's lives, but to save them. And they went to another village.

ὁ υἱὸς τοῦ ἀνθρώπου οὐκ ἦλθε ψυχὰς ἀνθρώπων ἀπολέσαι, ἀλλὰ σῶσαι. καὶ ἐπορεύθησαν εἰς ἑτέραν κώμην.

сн҃ъ бо чл҃вѣ́ческїй не прїи́де дꙋ́шъ человѣ́ческихъ погꙋби́ти, но спⷭ҇тѝ. И҆ и҆до́ша во и҆́нꙋ ве́сь.

Chapter 10

22

All things are delivered to me of my Father: and no man knoweth who the Son is, but the Father; and who the Father is, but the Son, and he to whom the Son will reveal him.

καὶ στραφεὶς πρὸς τοὺς μαθητὰς εἶπε· πάντα μοι παρεδόθη ὑπὸ τοῦ πατρός μου· καὶ οὐδεὶς ἐπιγινώσκει τίς ἐστιν ὁ υἱός, εἰ μὴ ὁ πατήρ, καὶ τίς ἐστιν ὁ πατήρ, εἰ μὴ ὁ υἱὸς καὶ ᾧ ἐὰν βούληται ὁ υἱὸς ἀποκαλύψαι.

И҆ ѡ҆бра́щьсѧ ко ᲂу҆чн҃кѡ́мъ, речѐ: всѧ̑ мнѣ̀ прє́дана бы́ша ѿ ѻ҆ц҃а̀ моегѡ̀: и҆ никто́же вѣ́сть, кто̀ є҆́сть сн҃ъ, то́кмѡ ѻ҆ц҃ъ: и҆ кто̀ є҆́сть ѻ҆ц҃ъ, то́кмѡ сн҃ъ, и҆ є҆мꙋ́же а҆́ще хо́щетъ сн҃ъ ѿкры́ти.

23

And he turned him unto his disciples, and said privately, Blessed are the eyes which see the things that ye see:

Καὶ στραφεὶς πρὸς τοὺς μαθητὰς κατ᾿ ἰδίαν εἶπε· μακάριοι οἱ ὀφθαλμοὶ οἱ βλέποντες ἃ βλέπετε.

[Заⷱ҇ 52] И҆ ѡ҆бра́щьсѧ ко ᲂу҆чн҃кѡ́мъ, є҆ди́нъ {ѡ҆со́бь} речѐ: бл҃же́ни ѻ҆́чи ви́дѧщїи, ꙗ҆̀же ви́дите:

24

For I tell you, that many prophets and kings have desired to see those things which ye see, and have not seen them; and to hear those things which ye hear, and have not heard them.

λέγω γὰρ ὑμῖν ὅτι πολλοὶ προφῆται καὶ βασιλεῖς ἠθέλησαν ἰδεῖν ἃ ὑμεῖς βλέπετε, καὶ οὐκ εἶδον, καὶ ἀκοῦσαι ἃ ἀκούετε, καὶ οὐκ ἤκουσαν.

гл҃ю бо ва́мъ, ꙗ҆́кѡ мно́зи прⷪ҇ро́цы и҆ ца́рїе восхотѣ́ша ви́дѣти, ꙗ҆̀же вы̀ ви́дите, и҆ не ви́дѣша: и҆ слы́шати, ꙗ҆̀же слы́шите, и҆ не слы́шаша.
