Matins John 21.1-14 § 66

John 21.1-14 § 66
1

AFTER these things Jesus shewed himself again to the disciples at the sea of Tiberias; and on this wise shewed he himself.

Μετὰ ταῦτα ἐφανέρωσεν ἑαυτὸν πάλιν ὁ Ἰησοῦς τοῖς μαθηταῖς ἐπὶ τῆς θαλάσσης τῆς Τιβεριάδος· ἐφανέρωσε δὲ οὕτως.

[Заⷱ҇ 66] Посе́мъ ꙗ҆ви́сѧ па́ки і҆и҃съ ᲂу҆чн҃кѡ́мъ (свои̑мъ, воста́въ ѿ ме́ртвыхъ,) на мо́ри тїверїа́дстѣмъ. Ꙗ҆ви́сѧ же си́це:

2

There were together Simon Peter, and Thomas called Didymus, and Nathanael of Cana in Galilee, and the sons of Zebedee, and two other of his disciples.

ἦσαν ὁμοῦ Σίμων Πέτρος, καὶ Θωμᾶς ὁ λεγόμενος Δίδυμος, καὶ Ναθαναὴλ ὁ ἀπὸ Κανᾶ τῆς Γαλιλαίας, καὶ οἱ τοῦ Ζεβεδαίου, καὶ ἄλλοι ἐκ τῶν μαθητῶν αὐτοῦ δύο.

бѧ́хꙋ вкꙋ́пѣ сі́мѡнъ пе́тръ, и҆ ѳѡма̀ нарица́емый близне́цъ, и҆ наѳана́илъ, и҆́же (бѣ̀) ѿ ка́ны галїле́йскїѧ, и҆ сы̑на зеведе́ѡва, и҆ и҆́на ѿ ᲂу҆чн҃къ є҆гѡ̀ два̀.

3

Simon Peter saith unto them, I go a fishing. They say unto him, We also go with thee. They went forth, and entered into a ship immediately; and that night they caught nothing.

λέγει αὐτοῖς Σίμων Πέτρος· ὑπάγω ἁλιεύειν. λέγουσιν αὐτῷ· ἐρχόμεθα καὶ ἡμεῖς σὺν σοί. ἐξῆλθον καὶ ἐνέβησαν εἰς τὸ πλοῖον εὐθύς, καὶ ἐν ἐκείνῃ τῇ νυκτὶ ἐπίασαν οὐδέν.

Глаго́ла и҆̀мъ сі́мѡнъ пе́тръ: и҆дꙋ̀ ры́бы лови́ти. Глаго́лаша є҆мꙋ̀: и҆́демъ и҆ мы̀ съ тобо́ю. И҆зыдо́ша (же) и҆ всѣдо́ша а҆́бїе въ кора́бль, и҆ въ тꙋ̀ но́щь не ꙗ҆́ша ничесѡ́же.

4

But when the morning was now come, Jesus stood on the shore: but the disciples knew not that it was Jesus.

πρωΐας δὲ ἤδη γενομένης ἔστη ὁ Ἰησοῦς εἰς τὸν αἰγιαλόν· οὐ μέντοι ᾔδεισαν οἱ μαθηταὶ ὅτι Ἰησοῦς ἐστι.

Оу҆́трꙋ же бы́вшꙋ, ста̀ і҆и҃съ при бре́зѣ: не позна́ша же ᲂу҆чн҃цы̀, ꙗ҆́кѡ і҆и҃съ є҆́сть.

5

Then Jesus saith unto them, Children, have ye any meat? They answered him, No.

λέγει οὖν αὐτοῖς ὁ Ἰησοῦς· παιδία, μή τι προσφάγιον ἔχετε; ἀπεκρίθησαν αὐτῷ· οὔ.

Гл҃а же и҆̀мъ і҆и҃съ: дѣ́ти, є҆да̀ что̀ снѣ́дно и҆́мате; Ѿвѣща́ша є҆мꙋ̀: нѝ.

6

And he said unto them, Cast the net on the right side of the ship, and ye shall find. They cast therefore, and now they were not able to draw it for the multitude of fishes.

ὁ δὲ εἶπεν αὐτοῖς· βάλετε εἰς τὰ δεξιὰ μέρη τοῦ πλοίου τὸ δίκτυον, καὶ εὑρήσετε. ἔβαλον οὖν, καὶ οὐκέτι αὐτὸ ἑλκύσαι ἴσχυσαν ἀπὸ τοῦ πλήθους τῶν ἰχθύων.

Ѻ҆́нъ же речѐ и҆̀мъ: вве́рзите мре́жꙋ ѡ҆ деснꙋ́ю странꙋ̀ кораблѧ̀ и҆ ѡ҆брѧ́щете. Вверго́ша же и҆ ктомꙋ̀ не можа́хꙋ привлещѝ є҆ѧ̀ ѿ мно́жества ры́бъ.

7

Therefore that disciple whom Jesus loved saith unto Peter, It is the Lord. Now when Simon Peter heard that it was the Lord, he girt his fisher's coat unto him, (for he was naked,) and did cast himself into the sea.

λέγει οὖν ὁ μαθητὴς ἐκεῖνος, ὃν ἠγάπα ὁ Ἰησοῦς, τῷ Πέτρῳ· ὁ Κύριός ἐστι. Σίμων οὖν Πέτρος ἀκούσας ὅτι ὁ Κύριός ἐστι, τὸν ἐπενδύτην διεζώσατο· ἦν γὰρ γυμνός· καὶ ἔβαλεν ἑαυτὸν εἰς τὴν θάλασσαν·

Глаго́ла же ᲂу҆чн҃къ то́й, є҆го́же люблѧ́ше і҆и҃съ, петро́ви: гдⷭ҇ь є҆́сть. Сі́мѡнъ же пе́тръ слы́шавъ, ꙗ҆́кѡ гдⷭ҇ь є҆́сть, є҆пендѵ́томъ препоѧ́сасѧ, бѣ́ бо на́гъ, и҆ вве́ржесѧ въ мо́ре:

8

And the other disciples came in a little ship; (for they were not far from land, but as it were two hundred cubits,) dragging the net with fishes.

οἱ δὲ ἄλλοι μαθηταὶ τῷ πλοιαρίῳ ἦλθον· οὐ γὰρ ἦσαν μακρὰν ἀπὸ τῆς γῆς, ἀλλ’ ὡς ἀπὸ πηχῶν διακοσίων, σύροντες τὸ δίκτυον τῶν ἰχθύων.

а҆ дрꙋзі́и ᲂу҆чн҃цы̀ кораблеце́мъ прїидо́ша, не бѣ́ша бо дале́че ѿ землѝ, но ꙗ҆́кѡ двѣ̀ стѣ̀ лакте́й, влекꙋ́ще мре́жꙋ ры́бъ.

9

As soon then as they were come to land, they saw a fire of coals there, and fish laid thereon, and bread.

ὡς οὖν ἀπέβησαν εἰς τὴν γῆν, βλέπουσιν ἀνθρακιὰν κειμένην καὶ ὀψάριον ἐπικείμενον καὶ ἄρτον.

Є҆гда̀ ᲂу҆̀бо и҆злѣзо́ша на зе́млю, ви́дѣша ѻ҆́гнь лежа́щь и҆ ры́бꙋ на не́мъ лежа́щꙋ и҆ хлѣ́бъ.

10

Jesus saith unto them, Bring of the fish which ye have now caught.

λέγει αὐτοῖς ὁ Ἰησοῦς· ἐνέγκατε ἀπὸ τῶν ὀψαρίων ὧν ἐπιάσατε νῦν.

(И҆) гл҃а и҆̀мъ і҆и҃съ: принеси́те ѿ ры́бъ, ꙗ҆̀же ꙗ҆́сте нн҃ѣ.

11

Simon Peter went up, and drew the net to land full of great fishes, an hundred and fifty and three: and for all there were so many, yet was not the net broken.

ἀνέβη Σίμων Πέτρος καὶ εἵλκυσε τὸ δίκτυον ἐπὶ τῆς γῆς, μεστὸν ἰχθύων μεγάλων ἑκατὸν πεντήκοντα τριῶν· καὶ τοσούτων ὄντων οὐκ ἐσχίσθη τὸ δίκτυον.

Влѣ́зъ (же) сі́мѡнъ пе́тръ, и҆звлечѐ мре́жꙋ на зе́млю, по́лнꙋ вели́кихъ ры́бъ сто̀ (и҆) пѧтьдесѧ́тъ (и҆) трѝ: и҆ толи́кѡ сꙋ́щымъ, не прото́ржесѧ мре́жа.

12

Jesus saith unto them, Come and dine. And none of the disciples durst ask him, Who art thou? knowing that it was the Lord.

λέγει αὐτοῖς ὁ Ἰησοῦς· δεῦτε ἀριστήσατε. οὐδεὶς δὲ ἐτόλμα τῶν μαθητῶν ἐξετάσαι αὐτὸν σὺ τίς εἶ, εἰδότες ὅτι ὁ Κύριός ἐστιν.

Гл҃а и҆̀мъ і҆и҃съ: прїиди́те, ѡ҆бѣ́дꙋйте. Ни є҆ди́нъ же смѣ́ѧше ѿ ᲂу҆чн҃къ и҆стѧза́ти є҆го̀: ты̀ кто̀ є҆сѝ; вѣ́дѧще, ꙗ҆́кѡ гдⷭ҇ь є҆́сть.

13

Jesus then cometh, and taketh bread, and giveth them, and fish likewise.

ἔρχεται οὖν ὁ Ἰησοῦς καὶ λαμβάνει τὸν ἄρτον καὶ δίδωσιν αὐτοῖς καὶ τὸ ὀψάριον ὁμοίως.

Прїи́де же і҆и҃съ, и҆ прїѧ́тъ хлѣ́бъ и҆ дадѐ и҆̀мъ, и҆ ры́бꙋ та́кожде.

14

This is now the third time that Jesus shewed himself to his disciples, after that he was risen from the dead.

Τοῦτο ἤδη τρίτον ἐφανερώθη ὁ Ἰησοῦς τοῖς μαθηταῖς αὐτοῦ ἐγερθεὶς ἐκ νεκρῶν.

Сѐ ᲂу҆жѐ тре́тїе ꙗ҆ви́сѧ і҆и҃съ ᲂу҆чн҃кѡ́мъ свои̑мъ, воста́въ ѿ ме́ртвыхъ.

In those days, it came to pass that while Apóllos was at Córinth, that Paul, having passed through the upper regions, came to Éphesus. And finding some disciples he said unto them, “Have you received the Holy Spirit since you believed?” And they said unto him, “We have not so much as heard whether there be any Holy Spirit.” And he said unto them, “Unto what then were you baptized?” And they said, “Unto the baptism of John.” Then said Paul, “John truly baptized with a baptism of repentance, saying unto the people that they should believe on Him who would come after him, that is, on Christ Jesus.” When they heard this, they were baptized in the Name of the Lord Jesus. And when Paul had laid his hands on them, the Holy Spirit came upon them, and they spoke with tongues and prophesied. Now the men were about twelve in all. And he went into the synagogue and spoke boldly for three months, reasoning and persuading concerning the things of the Kingdom of God.

Ephesians 4:7–13 (Sunday after Theophany) § 224ctr

Sunday after Theophany

Brethren, unto every one of us grace was given according to the measure of Christ’s gift. Therefore He says: “When He ascended up on high, He led captivity captive, and gave gifts unto men.” (Now this, “He ascended,” what does it mean but that He also first descended into the lower parts of the earth? He who descended is also the One who ascended far above all the heavens, that He might fill all things.) And He Himself gave some to be Apostles, some Prophets, some Evangelists, and some pastors and teachers, for the perfecting of the saints, for the work of the ministry, for the edification of the Body of Christ, till we all come to the unity of the faith and the knowledge of the Son of God, unto a perfect man, unto the measure of the stature of the fullness of Christ…

The next day John seeth Jesus coming unto him, and saith, Behold the Lamb of God, which taketh away the sin of the world.

Τῇ ἐπαύριον βλέπει ὁ Ἰωάννης τὸν Ἰησοῦν ἐρχόμενον πρὸς αὐτὸν καὶ λέγει· ἴδε ὁ ἀμνὸς τοῦ Θεοῦ ὁ αἴρων τὴν ἁμαρτίαν τοῦ κόσμου.

[Заⷱ҇ 3] Во ᲂу҆́трїй (же) ви́дѣ і҆ѡа́ннъ і҆и҃са грѧдꙋ́ща къ себѣ̀ и҆ глаго́ла: сѐ, а҆́гнецъ бж҃їй, взе́млѧй грѣхѝ мі́ра:

30

This is he of whom I said, After me cometh a man which is preferred before me: for he was before me.

οὗτός ἐστι περὶ οὗ ἐγὼ εἶπον· ὀπίσω μου ἔρχεται ἀνὴρ ὃς ἔμπροσθέν μου γέγονεν, ὅτι πρῶτός μου ἦν.

се́й є҆́сть, ѡ҆ не́мже а҆́зъ рѣ́хъ: по мнѣ̀ грѧде́тъ мꙋ́жъ, и҆́же предо мно́ю бы́сть, ꙗ҆́кѡ пе́рвѣе менє̀ бѣ̀:

31

And I knew him not: but that he should be made manifest to Israel, therefore am I come baptizing with water.

κἀγὼ οὐκ ᾔδειν αὐτόν, ἀλλ’ ἵνα φανερωθῇ τῷ Ἰσραήλ, διὰ τοῦτο ἦλθον ἐγὼ ἐν τῷ ὕδατι βαπτίζων.

и҆ а҆́зъ не вѣ́дѣхъ є҆гѡ̀: но да ꙗ҆ви́тсѧ і҆и҃леви, сегѡ̀ ра́ди прїидо́хъ а҆́зъ водо́ю крестѧ̀.

32

And John bare record, saying, I saw the Spirit descending from heaven like a dove, and it abode upon him.

καὶ ἐμαρτύρησεν Ἰωάννης λέγων ὅτι τεθέαμαι τὸ Πνεῦμα καταβαῖνον ὡς περιστερὰν ἐξ οὐρανοῦ, καὶ ἔμεινεν ἐπ’ αὐτόν.

И҆ свидѣ́тельствова і҆ѡа́ннъ, глаго́лѧ, ꙗ҆́кѡ ви́дѣхъ дх҃а сходѧ́ща ꙗ҆́кѡ го́лꙋбѧ съ небесѐ, и҆ пребы́сть на не́мъ:

33

And I knew him not: but he that sent me to baptize with water, the same said unto me, Upon whom thou shalt see the Spirit descending, and remaining on him, the same is he which baptizeth with the Holy Ghost.

κἀγὼ οὐκ ᾔδειν αὐτόν, ἀλλ’ ὁ πέμψας με βαπτίζειν ἐν ὕδατι, ἐκεῖνός μοι εἶπεν· ἐφ’ ὃν ἂν ἴδῃς τὸ Πνεῦμα καταβαῖνον καὶ μένον ἐπ’ αὐτόν, οὗτός ἐστιν ὁ βαπτίζων ἐν Πνεύματι Ἁγίῳ.

и҆ а҆́зъ не вѣ́дѣхъ є҆гѡ̀: но посла́вый мѧ̀ крести́ти водо́ю, то́й мнѣ̀ речѐ: над̾ него́же ᲂу҆́зриши дх҃а сходѧ́ща и҆ пребыва́юща на не́мъ, то́й є҆́сть крⷭ҇тѧ́й дх҃омъ ст҃ы́мъ:

34

And I saw, and bare record that this is the Son of God.

κἀγὼ ἑώρακα καὶ μεμαρτύρηκα ὅτι οὗτός ἐστιν ὁ υἱὸς τοῦ Θεοῦ.

и҆ а҆́зъ ви́дѣхъ и҆ свидѣ́тельствовахъ, ꙗ҆́кѡ се́й є҆́сть сн҃ъ бж҃їй.

12

Now when Jesus had heard that John was cast into prison, he departed into Galilee;

Ἀκούσας δὲ ὁ Ἰησοῦς ὅτι Ἰωάννης παρεδόθη, ἀνεχώρησεν εἰς τὴν Γαλιλαίαν,

[Заⷱ҇ 8] Слы́шавъ же і҆и҃съ, ꙗ҆́кѡ і҆ѡа́ннъ пре́данъ бы́сть, ѿи́де въ галїле́ю,

13

And leaving Nazareth, he came and dwelt in Capernaum, which is upon the sea coast, in the borders of Zabulon and Nephthalim:

καὶ καταλιπὼν τὴν Ναζαρὲτ ἐλθὼν κατῴκησεν εἰς Καπερναοὺμ τὴν παραθαλασσίαν ἐν ὁρίοις Ζαβουλὼν καὶ Νεφθαλείμ,

и҆ ѡ҆ста́вль назаре́тъ, прише́дъ всели́сѧ въ капернаꙋ́мъ въ помо́рїе, въ предѣ́лѣхъ завꙋлѡ́нихъ и҆ нефѳалі́млихъ:

14

That it might be fulfilled which was spoken by Esaias the prophet, saying,

ἵνα πληρωθῇ τὸ ρηθὲν διὰ Ἡσαΐου τοῦ προφήτου λέγοντος·

да сбꙋ́детсѧ рече́нное и҆са́їемъ прⷪ҇ро́комъ, глаго́лющимъ:

15

The land of Zabulon, and the land of Nephthalim, by the way of the sea, beyond Jordan, Galilee of the Gentiles;

γῆ Ζαβουλὼν καὶ γῆ Νεφθαλείμ, ὁδὸν θαλάσσης, πέραν τοῦ Ἰορδάνου, Γαλιλαία τῶν ἐθνῶν,

землѧ̀ завꙋлѡ́нѧ и҆ землѧ̀ нефѳалі́млѧ, пꙋ́ть мо́рѧ ѡ҆б̾ ѡ҆́нъ по́лъ і҆ѻрда́на, галїле́а ꙗ҆зы̑къ,

16

The people which sat in darkness saw great light; and to them which sat in the region and shadow of death light is sprung up.

ὁ λαὸς ὁ καθήμενος ἐν σκότει εἶδε φῶς μέγα καὶ τοῖς καθημένοις ἐν χώρᾳ καὶ σκιᾷ θανάτου φῶς ἀνέτειλεν αὐτοῖς.

лю́дїе седѧ́щїи во тьмѣ̀ ви́дѣша свѣ́тъ ве́лїй, и҆ сѣдѧ́щымъ въ странѣ̀ и҆ сѣ́ни сме́ртнѣй, свѣ́тъ возсїѧ̀ и҆̀мъ.

17

From that time Jesus began to preach, and to say, Repent: for the kingdom of heaven is at hand.

Ἀπὸ τότε ἤρξατο ὁ Ἰησοῦς κηρύσσειν καὶ λέγειν· μετανοεῖτε· ἤγγικε γὰρ ἡ βασιλεία τῶν οὐρανῶν.

Ѿто́лѣ нача́тъ і҆и҃съ проповѣ́дати и҆ гл҃ати: пока́йтесѧ, прибли́жисѧ бо црⷭ҇тво нбⷭ҇ное.
