1 Thessalonians 2:9–14 § 265

1 Thessalonians 2:9–14 § 265

Brethren, you remember our labor and toil; for laboring night and day, that we might not be a burden to any of you, we preached unto you the Gospel of God. You are witnesses, and God also, how devoutly and justly and blamelessly we behaved ourselves among you that believe; as you know how we exhorted, and comforted, and charged every one of you, as a father does his own children, that you would walk worthy of God, who has called you into His Kingdom and glory. For this reason we also thank God without ceasing, because when you received the word of God which you heard from us, you welcomed it not as the word of men, but as it is in truth, the word of God, which also effectively works in you that believe… For you, brethren, became followers of the Churches of God which are in Judea in Christ Jesus…

Luke 13.1-9 § 70

Luke 13.1-9 § 70

1

THERE were present at that season some that told him of the Galilaeans, whose blood Pilate had mingled with their sacrifices.

Παρῆσαν δέ τινες ἐν αὐτῷ τῷ καιρῷ ἀπαγγέλλοντες αὐτῷ περὶ τῶν Γαλιλαίων, ὧν τὸ αἷμα Πιλᾶτος ἔμιξε μετὰ τῶν θυσιῶν αὐτῶν.

[Заⷱ҇ 70] Прїидо́ша же нѣ́цыи въ то̀ вре́мѧ, повѣ́дающе є҆мꙋ̀ ѡ҆ галїле́ехъ, и҆́хже кро́вь пїла́тъ смѣсѝ съ же́ртвами и҆́хъ.

2

And Jesus answering said unto them, Suppose ye that these Galilaeans were sinners above all the Galilaeans, because they suffered such things?

καὶ ἀποκριθεὶς ὁ Ἰησοῦς εἶπεν αὐτοῖς· δοκεῖτε ὅτι οἱ Γαλιλαῖοι οὗτοι ἁμαρτωλοὶ παρὰ πάντας τοὺς Γαλιλαίους ἐγένοντο, ὅτι τοιαῦτα πεπόνθασιν;

И҆ ѿвѣща́въ і҆и҃съ речѐ и҆̀мъ: мните́ ли, ꙗ҆́кѡ галїле́ане сі́и грѣ́шнѣйши па́че всѣ́хъ галїле́анъ бѧ́хꙋ, ꙗ҆́кѡ та́кѡ пострада́ша;

3

I tell you, Nay: but, except ye repent, ye shall all likewise perish.

οὐχί, λέγω ὑμῖν, ἀλλ᾿ ἐὰν μὴ μετανοῆτε, πάντες ὡσαύτως ἀπολεῖσθε.

Нѝ, гл҃ю ва́мъ: но а҆́ще не пока́етесѧ, всѝ та́кожде поги́бнете.

4

Or those eighteen, upon whom the tower in Siloam fell, and slew them, think ye that they were sinners above all men that dwelt in Jerusalem?

ἢ ἐκεῖνοι οἱ δέκα καὶ ὀκτώ, ἐφ᾿ οὓς ἔπεσεν ὁ πύργος ἐν τῷ Σιλωὰμ καὶ ἀπέκτεινεν αὐτούς, δοκεῖτε ὅτι οὗτοι ὀφειλέται ἐγένοντο παρὰ πάντας τοὺς ἀνθρώπους τοὺς κατοικοῦντας ἐν Ἱερουσαλήμ;

И҆лѝ ѻ҆́ни ѻ҆смьна́десѧте, на ни́хже падѐ сто́лпъ сїлѡа́мскїй и҆ побѝ и҆̀хъ, мните́ ли, ꙗ҆́кѡ ті́и до́лжнѣйши бѧ́хꙋ па́че всѣ́хъ живꙋ́щихъ во і҆ерⷭ҇ли́мѣ;

5

I tell you, Nay: but, except ye repent, ye shall all likewise perish.

οὐχί, λέγω ὑμῖν, ἀλλ᾿ ἐὰν μὴ μετανοήσητε, πάντες ὁμοίως ἀπολεῖσθε.

Нѝ, гл҃ю ва́мъ: но а҆́ще не пока́етесѧ, всѝ та́кожде поги́бнете.

He spake also this parable; A certain man had a fig tree planted in his vineyard; and he came and sought fruit thereon, and found none.

Ἔλεγε δὲ ταύτην τὴν παραβολήν· συκῆν εἶχέ τις ἐν τῷ ἀμπελῶνι αὐτοῦ πεφυτευμένην, καὶ ἦλθε ζητῶν καρπὸν ἐν αὐτῇ, καὶ οὐχ εὗρεν.

Гл҃аше же сїю̀ при́тчꙋ: смоко́вницꙋ и҆мѧ́ше нѣ́кїй въ вїногра́дѣ свое́мъ всажденꙋ̀: и҆ прїи́де и҆щѧ̀ плода̀ на не́й, и҆ не ѡ҆брѣ́те:

7

Then said he unto the dresser of his vineyard, Behold, these three years I come seeking fruit on this fig tree, and find none: cut it down; why cumbereth it the ground?

εἶπε δὲ πρὸς τὸν ἀμπελουργόν· ἰδοὺ τρία ἔτη ἔρχομαι ζητῶν καρπὸν ἐν τῇ συκῇ ταύτῃ, καὶ οὐχ εὑρίσκω· ἔκκοψον αὐτήν· ἱνατί καὶ τὴν γῆν καταργεῖ;

рече́ же къ вїнаре́ви: сѐ, тре́тїе лѣ́то, ѿне́лиже прихождꙋ̀ и҆щѧ̀ плода̀ на смоко́вницѣ се́й, и҆ не ѡ҆брѣта́ю: посѣцы̀ ю҆̀ (ᲂу҆̀бо), вскꙋ́ю и҆ зе́млю ᲂу҆пражнѧ́етъ;

8

And he answering said unto him, Lord, let it alone this year also, till I shall dig about it, and dung it:

ὁ δὲ ἀποκριθεὶς εἶπεν αὐτῷ· κύριε, ἄφες αὐτὴν καὶ τοῦτο τὸ ἔτος, ἕως ὅτου σκάψω περὶ αὐτὴν καὶ βάλω κόπρια.

Ѻ҆́нъ же ѿвѣща́въ речѐ є҆мꙋ̀: го́споди, ѡ҆ста́ви ю҆̀ и҆ сѐ лѣ́то, до́ндеже ѡ҆копа́ю ѡ҆́крестъ є҆ѧ̀ и҆ ѡ҆сы́плю гно́емъ:

9

And if it bear fruit, well: and if not, then after that thou shalt cut it down.

κἂν μὲν ποιήσῃ καρπόν· εἰ δὲ μήγε, εἰς τὸ μέλλον ἐκκόψεις αὐτήν.

и҆ а҆́ще ᲂу҆́бѡ сотвори́тъ пло́дъ: а҆́ще ли же нѝ, во грѧдꙋ́щее посѣче́ши ю҆̀.
