1 Thessalonians 5:1–8 § 271

1 Thessalonians 5:1–8 § 271

Brethren, concerning the times and the seasons, you have no need that I should write unto you. For you yourselves know perfectly that the day of the Lord so comes as a thief in the night. For when they say, “Peace and safety!” then sudden destruction comes upon them, as travail upon a woman with child. And they shall not escape. But you, brethren, are not in darkness, so that this Day should overtake you as a thief. You are all the children of light, and the children of the day. We are not of the night nor of darkness. Therefore let us not sleep, as others do, but let us watch and be sober. For those who sleep, sleep at night, and those who get drunk are drunk at night. But let us who are of the day be sober, putting on the breastplate of faith and love, and as a helmet the hope of salvation.

Luke 16.1-9 § 80

Luke 16.1-9 § 80

1

AND he said also unto his disciples, There was a certain rich man, which had a steward; and the same was accused unto him that he had wasted his goods.

Ἔλεγε δὲ καὶ πρὸς τοὺς μαθητὰς αὐτοῦ· ἄνθρωπός τις ἦν πλούσιος, ὃς εἶχεν οἰκονόμον, καὶ οὗτος διεβλήθη αὐτῷ ὡς διασκορπίζων τὰ ὑπάρχοντα αὐτοῦ

[Заⷱ҇ 80] Гл҃аголаше же ко ᲂу҆чн҃кѡ́мъ свои̑мъ: человѣ́къ нѣ́кїй бѣ̀ бога́тъ, и҆̀же и҆мѧ́ше приста́вника: и҆ то́й ѡ҆клевета́нъ бы́сть къ немꙋ̀, ꙗ҆́кѡ расточа́етъ и҆мѣ̑нїѧ є҆гѡ̀:

2

And he called him, and said unto him, How is it that I hear this of thee? give an account of thy stewardship; for thou mayest be no longer steward.

καὶ φωνήσας αὐτὸν εἶπεν αὐτῷ· τί τοῦτο ἀκούω περὶ σοῦ; ἀπόδος τὸν λόγον τῆς οἰκονομίας σου· οὐ γὰρ δύνῃ ἔτι οἰκονομεῖν.

и҆ пригласи́въ є҆го̀ речѐ є҆мꙋ̀: что̀ сѐ слы́шꙋ ѡ҆ тебѣ̀; возда́ждь ѿвѣ́тъ ѡ҆ приставле́нїи домо́внѣмъ: не возмо́жеши бо ктомꙋ̀ до́мꙋ стро́ити.

3

Then the steward said within himself, What shall I do? for my lord taketh away from me the stewardship: I cannot dig; to beg I am ashamed.

εἶπε δὲ ἐν ἑαυτῷ ὁ οἰκονόμος· τί ποιήσω, ὅτι ὁ κύριός μου ἀφαιρεῖται τὴν οἰκονομίαν ἀπ᾿ ἐμοῦ; σκάπτειν οὐκ ἰσχύω, ἐπαιτεῖν αἰσχύνομαι·

Рече́ же въ себѣ̀ приста́вникъ до́мꙋ: что̀ сотворю̀, ꙗ҆́кѡ госпо́дь мо́й ѿе́млетъ строе́нїе до́мꙋ ѿ менє̀; копа́ти не могꙋ̀, проси́ти стыжꙋ́сѧ:

4

I am resolved what to do, that, when I am put out of the stewardship, they may receive me into their houses.

ἔγνων τί ποιήσω, ἵνα, ὅταν μετασταθῶ ἐκ τῆς οἰκονομίας, δέξωνταί με εἰς τοὺς οἴκους ἑαυτῶν.

разꙋмѣ́хъ, что̀ сотворю̀, да є҆гда̀ ѿста́вленъ бꙋ́дꙋ ѿ строе́нїѧ до́мꙋ, прїи́мꙋтъ мѧ̀ въ до́мы своѧ̑.

5

So he called every one of his lord's debtors unto him, and said unto the first, How much owest thou unto my lord?

καὶ προσκαλεσάμενος ἕνα ἕκαστον τῶν χρεωφειλετῶν τοῦ κυρίου ἑαυτοῦ ἔλεγε τῷ πρώτῳ· πόσον ὀφείλεις σὺ τῷ κυρίῳ μου;

И҆ призва́въ є҆ди́наго кого́ждо ѿ должни̑къ господи́на своегѡ̀, глаго́лаше пе́рвомꙋ: коли́цѣмъ до́лженъ є҆сѝ господи́нꙋ моемꙋ̀;

6

And he said, An hundred measures of oil. And he said unto him, Take thy bill, and sit down quickly, and write fifty.

ὁ δὲ εἶπεν· ἑκατὸν βάτους ἐλαίου. καὶ εἶπεν αὐτῷ· δέξαι σου τὸ γράμμα καὶ καθίσας ταχέως γράψον πεντήκοντα.

Ѻ҆́нъ же речѐ: сто̀ мѣ́ръ {ва́ть (βάτος, т. є҆. мѣ́ръ)} ма́сла. И҆ речѐ є҆мꙋ̀: прїимѝ писа́нїе твоѐ, и҆ сѣ́дъ ско́рѡ напишѝ пѧтьдесѧ́тъ.

7

Then said he to another, And how much owest thou? And he said, An hundred measures of wheat. And he said unto him, Take thy bill, and write fourscore.

ἔπειτα ἑτέρῳ εἶπε· σὺ δὲ πόσον ὀφείλεις; ὁ δὲ εἶπεν· ἑκατὸν κόρους σίτου. καὶ λέγει αὐτῷ· δέξαι σου τὸ γράμμα καὶ γράψον ὀγδοήκοντα.

Пото́мъ же речѐ дрꙋго́мꙋ: ты́ же коли́цѣмъ до́лженъ є҆сѝ; Ѻ҆́нъ же речѐ: сто̀ мѣ́ръ пшени́цы. И҆ глаго́ла є҆мꙋ̀: прїимѝ писа́нїе твоѐ, и҆ напишѝ ѻ҆́смьдесѧтъ.

8

And the lord commended the unjust steward, because he had done wisely: for the children of this world are in their generation wiser than the children of light.

καὶ ἐπῄνεσεν ὁ κύριος τὸν οἰκονόμον τῆς ἀδικίας, ὅτι φρονίμως ἐποίησεν· ὅτι οἱ υἱοὶ τοῦ αἰῶνος τούτου φρονιμώτεροι ὑπὲρ τοὺς υἱοὺς τοῦ φωτὸς εἰς τὴν γενεὰν τὴν ἑαυτῶν εἰσι.

И҆ похвалѝ госпо́дь до́мꙋ строи́телѧ непра́веднаго, ꙗ҆́кѡ мꙋ́дрѣ сотворѝ: ꙗ҆́кѡ сы́нове вѣ́ка сегѡ̀ мꙋдрѣ́йши па́че сынѡ́въ свѣ́та въ ро́дѣ свое́мъ сꙋ́ть.

9

And I say unto you, Make to yourselves friends of the mammon of unrighteousness; that, when ye fail, they may receive you into everlasting habitations.

κἀγὼ ὑμῖν λέγω· ποιήσατε ἑαυτοῖς φίλους ἐκ τοῦ μαμωνᾶ τῆς ἀδικίας, ἵνα, ὅταν ἐκλίπητε, δέξωνται ὑμᾶς εἰς τὰς αἰωνίους σκηνάς.

И҆ а҆́зъ ва́мъ гл҃ю: сотвори́те себѣ̀ дрꙋ́ги ѿ мамѡ́ны непра́вды, да, є҆гда̀ ѡ҆скꙋдѣ́ете, прїи́мꙋтъ вы̀ въ вѣ̑чныѧ кро́вы.
