1 Corinthians 15:39–45
§ 162
1 Corinthians 15:39–45 § 162
Brethren, all flesh is not the same flesh, but there is one kind of flesh of men, another flesh of beasts, another of fish, and another of birds. There are also celestial bodies and bodies terrestrial; but the glory of the celestial is one, and the glory of the terrestrial is another. There is one glory of the sun, another glory of the moon, and another glory of the stars; for one star differs from another star in glory. So also is the resurrection of the dead. The body is sown in corruption, it is raised in incorruption. It is sown in dishonor, it is raised in glory. It is sown in weakness, it is raised in power. It is sown a natural body, it is raised a spiritual body. There is a natural body, and there is a spiritual body. And so it is written, “The first man Adam was made a living soul.” The Last Adam became a Life-giving Spirit…
Luke 5.27-32
§ 20
Luke 5.27-32 § 20
And after these things he went forth, and saw a publican, named Levi, sitting at the receipt of custom: and he said unto him, Follow me.
Καὶ μετὰ ταῦτα ἐξῆλθε καὶ ἐθεάσατο τελώνην ὀνόματι Λευΐν, καθήμενον ἐπὶ τὸ τελώνιον, καὶ εἶπεν αὐτῷ· ἀκολούθει μοι.
[Заⷱ҇ 20] И҆ посе́мъ и҆зы́де, и҆ ᲂу҆зрѣ̀ мытарѧ̀ и҆́менемъ леѵі́ю, сѣдѧ́ща на мы́тницѣ, и҆ речѐ є҆мꙋ̀: и҆дѝ по мнѣ̀.
And he left all, rose up, and followed him.
καὶ καταλιπὼν ἅπαντα ἀναστὰς ἠκολούθησεν αὐτῷ.
И҆ ѡ҆ста́вль всѧ̑, воста́въ в̾слѣ́дъ є҆гѡ̀ и҆́де.
And Levi made him a great feast in his own house: and there was a great company of publicans and of others that sat down with them.
καὶ ἐποίησε δοχὴν μεγάλην Λευῒς αὐτῷ ἐν τῇ οἰκίᾳ αὐτοῦ, καὶ ἦν ὄχλος τελωνῶν πολὺς καὶ ἄλλων οἳ ἦσαν μετ᾿ αὐτῶν κατακείμενοι.
И҆ сотворѝ ᲂу҆чрежде́нїе ве́лїе леѵі́й є҆мꙋ̀ въ домꙋ̀ свое́мъ: и҆ бѣ̀ наро́дъ мытаре́й мно́гъ, и҆ и҆нѣ́хъ, и҆̀же бѧ́хꙋ съ ни́мъ возлежа́ще.
But their scribes and Pharisees murmured against his disciples, saying, Why do ye eat and drink with publicans and sinners?
καὶ ἐγόγγυζον οἱ γραμματεῖς αὐτῶν καὶ οἱ Φαρισαῖοι πρὸς τοὺς μαθητὰς αὐτοῦ λέγοντες· διατί μετὰ τῶν τελωνῶν καὶ ἁμαρτωλῶν ἐσθίετε καὶ πίνετε;
И҆ ропта́хꙋ кни́жницы на него̀ и҆ фарїсе́є, ко ᲂу҆чн҃кѡ́мъ є҆гѡ̀ глаго́люще: почто̀ съ мытари̑ и҆ грѣ̑шники ꙗ҆́сте и҆ пїе́те;
And Jesus answering said unto them, They that are whole need not a physician; but they that are sick.
καὶ ἀποκριθεὶς ὁ Ἰησοῦς εἶπε πρὸς αὐτούς· οὐ χρείαν ἔχουσιν οἱ ὑγιαίνοντες ἰατροῦ, ἀλλ᾿ οἱ κακῶς ἔχοντες·
И҆ ѿвѣща́въ і҆и҃съ речѐ къ ни̑мъ: не тре́бꙋютъ здра̑вїи врача̀, но болѧ́щїи:
I came not to call the righteous, but sinners to repentance.
οὐκ ἐλήλυθα καλέσαι δικαίους, ἀλλὰ ἁμαρτωλοὺς εἰς μετάνοιαν.
не прїидо́хъ призва́ти првⷣныхъ, но грѣ̑шныѧ въ покаѧ́нїе.
