Colossians 1:3–6 § 249ctr
Brethren, we give thanks to the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, praying always for you, since we heard of your faith in Christ Jesus and of your love for all the saints; because of the hope which is laid up for you in heaven, of which you heard before in the word of the truth of the Gospel, which has come unto you, as it has also in all the world, and is bringing forth fruit, as it is also among you since the day you heard and knew the grace of God in truth …
Luke 14.1-11
§ 74
Luke 14.1-11 § 74
AND it came to pass, as he went into the house of one of the chief Pharisees to eat bread on the sabbath day, that they watched him.
Καὶ ἐγένετο ἐν τῷ ἐλθεῖν αὐτὸν εἰς οἶκόν τινος τῶν ἀρχόντων τῶν Φαρισαίων σαββάτῳ φαγεῖν ἄρτον, καὶ αὐτοὶ ἦσαν παρατηρούμενοι αὐτόν.
[Заⷱ҇ 74] И҆ бы́сть є҆гда̀ вни́ти є҆мꙋ̀ въ до́мъ нѣ́коегѡ кнѧ́зѧ фарїсе́йска въ сꙋббѡ́тꙋ хлѣ́бъ ꙗ҆́сти, и҆ ті́и бѧ́хꙋ назира́юще є҆го̀:
And, behold, there was a certain man before him which had the dropsy.
καὶ ἰδοὺ ἄνθρωπός τις ἦν ὑδρωπικὸς ἔμπροσθεν αὐτοῦ.
и҆ сѐ, человѣ́къ нѣ́кїй, и҆мы́й водны́й трꙋ́дъ, бѣ̀ пред̾ ни́мъ.
And Jesus answering spake unto the lawyers and Pharisees, saying, Is it lawful to heal on the sabbath day?
καὶ ἀποκριθεὶς ὁ Ἰησοῦς εἶπε πρὸς τοὺς νομικοὺς καὶ Φαρισαίους λέγων· εἰ ἔξεστι τῷ σαββάτῳ θεραπεύειν; οἱ δὲ ἡσύχασαν.
И҆ ѿвѣща́въ і҆и҃съ речѐ къ зако́нникѡмъ и҆ фарїсе́ѡмъ, гл҃ѧ: а҆́ще досто́итъ въ сꙋббѡ́тꙋ цѣли́ти;
And they held their peace. And he took him, and healed him, and let him go;
καὶ ἐπιλαβόμενος ἰάσατο αὐτὸν καὶ ἀπέλυσε.
Ѻ҆ни́ же ᲂу҆молча́ша. И҆ прїе́мь и҆сцѣлѝ є҆го̀, и҆ ѿпꙋстѝ.
And answered them, saying, Which of you shall have an ass or an ox fallen into a pit, and will not straightway pull him out on the sabbath day?
καὶ ἀποκριθεὶς πρὸς αὐτοὺς εἶπε· τίνος ὑμῶν υἱὸς ἢ βοῦς εἰς φρέαρ ἐμπεσεῖται, καὶ οὐκ εὐθέως ἀνασπάσει αὐτὸν ἐν τῇ ἡμέρᾳ τοῦ σαββάτου;
И҆ ѿвѣща́въ къ ни̑мъ речѐ: кото́рагѡ ѿ ва́съ ѻ҆се́лъ и҆лѝ во́лъ въ стꙋдене́цъ впаде́тъ, и҆ не а҆́бїе ли и҆сто́ргнетъ є҆го̀ въ де́нь сꙋббѡ́тный;
And they could not answer him again to these things.
καὶ οὐκ ἴσχυσαν ἀνταποκριθῆναι αὐτῷ πρὸς ταῦτα.
И҆ не возмого́ша ѿвѣща́ти є҆мꙋ̀ къ си̑мъ.
And he put forth a parable to those which were bidden, when he marked how they chose out the chief rooms; saying unto them.
Ἔλεγε δὲ πρὸς τοὺς κεκλημένους παραβολήν, ἐπέχων πῶς τὰς πρωτοκλισίας ἐξελέγοντο, λέγων πρὸς αὐτούς·
Гл҃аше же къ зва̑ннымъ при́тчꙋ, ѡ҆бдержѧ̀ {внима́ѧ}, ка́кѡ предсѣда̑нїѧ и҆збира́хꙋ, гл҃ѧ къ ни̑мъ:
When thou art bidden of any man to a wedding, sit not down in the highest room; lest a more honourable man than thou be bidden of him;
ὅταν κληθῇς ὑπό τινος εἰς γάμους, μὴ κατακλιθῇς εἰς τὴν πρωτοκλισίαν, μήποτε ἐντιμότερός σου ᾖ κεκλημένος ὑπ᾿ αὐτοῦ,
є҆гда̀ зва́нъ бꙋ́деши ки́мъ на бра́къ, не сѧ́ди на пре́днемъ мѣ́стѣ: є҆да̀ кто̀ честнѣ́е тебє̀ бꙋ́детъ зва́нныхъ,
And he that bade thee and him come and say to thee, Give this man place; and thou begin with shame to take the lowest room.
καὶ ἐλθὼν ὁ σὲ καὶ αὐτὸν καλέσας ἐρεῖ σοι· δὸς τούτῳ τόπον· καὶ τότε ἄρξῃ μετ᾿ αἰσχύνης τὸν ἔσχατον τόπον κατέχειν.
и҆ прише́дъ и҆́же тебѐ зва́вый и҆ ѻ҆́наго, рече́тъ тѝ: да́ждь семꙋ̀ мѣ́сто: и҆ тогда̀ на́чнеши со стꙋдо́мъ послѣ́днее мѣ́сто держа́ти.
But when thou art bidden, go and sit down in the lowest room; that when he that bade thee cometh, he may say unto thee, Friend, go up higher: then shalt thou have worship in the presence of them that sit at meat with thee.
ἀλλ᾿ ὅταν κληθῇς, πορευθεὶς ἀνάπεσε εἰς τὸν ἔσχατον τόπον, ἵνα ὅταν ἔλθῃ ὁ κεκληκώς σε εἴπῃ σοι· φίλε, προσανάβηθι ἀνώτερον· τότε ἔσται σοι δόξα ἐνώπιον τῶν συνανακειμένων σοι.
Но є҆гда̀ зва́нъ бꙋ́деши, ше́дъ сѧ́ди на послѣ́днемъ мѣ́стѣ, да є҆гда̀ прїи́детъ зва́вый тѧ̀, рече́тъ тѝ: дрꙋ́же, посѧ́ди вы́ше: тогда̀ бꙋ́детъ тѝ сла́ва пред̾ зва́нными съ тобо́ю:
For whosoever exalteth himself shall be abased; and he that humbleth himself shall be exalted.
ὅτι πᾶς ὁ ὑψῶν ἑαυτὸν ταπεινωθήσεται καὶ ὁ ταπεινῶν ἑαυτὸν ὑψωθήσεται.
ꙗ҆́кѡ всѧ́къ возносѧ́йсѧ смири́тсѧ, и҆ смирѧ́ѧйсѧ вознесе́тсѧ.
