1 Thessalonians 1:6–10
§ 263
1 Thessalonians 1:6–10 § 263
Brethren, you became followers of us and of the Lord, having received the word in much affliction, with joy of the Holy Spirit, so that you became examples to all in Macedónia and Acháia who believe. For from you the word of the Lord has sounded forth, not only in Macedónia and Acháia, but also in every place. Your faith toward God has gone out, so that we do not need to say any thing. For they themselves declare concerning us what manner of entry we had to you, and how you turned to God from idols to serve the living and true God, and to wait for His Son from heaven, whom He raised from the dead, even Jesus who delivers us from the wrath to come.
Luke 19.45-48
§ 98
Luke 19.45-48 § 98
And he went into the temple, and began to cast out them that sold therein, and them that bought;
Καὶ εἰσελθὼν εἰς τὸ ἱερὸν ἤρξατο ἐκβάλλειν τοὺς πωλοῦντας ἐν αὐτῷ καὶ ἀγοράζοντας
[Заⷱ҇ 98] И҆ вше́дъ въ це́рковь, нача́тъ и҆згони́ти продаю́щыѧ въ не́й и҆ кꙋпꙋ́ющыѧ,
Saying unto them, It is written, My house is the house of prayer: but ye have made it a den of thieves.
λέγων αὐτοῖς· γέγραπται ὅτι ὁ οἶκός μου οἶκος προσευχῆς ἐστιν· ὑμεῖς δὲ αὐτὸν ἐποιήσατε σπήλαιον λῃστῶν.
гл҃ѧ и҆̀мъ: пи́сано є҆́сть: до́мъ мо́й до́мъ моли́твы є҆́сть: вы́ же сотвори́сте є҆го̀ пеще́рꙋ разбо́йникѡмъ.
And he taught daily in the temple. But the chief priests and the scribes and the chief of the people sought to destroy him,
καὶ ἦν διδάσκων τὸ καθ᾿ ἡμέραν ἐν τῷ ἱερῷ· οἱ δὲ ἀρχιερεῖς καὶ οἱ γραμματεῖς ἐζήτουν αὐτὸν ἀπολέσαι καὶ οἱ πρῶτοι τοῦ λαοῦ,
И҆ бѣ̀ ᲂу҆чѧ̀ по всѧ̑ дни̑ въ це́ркви. А҆рхїере́є же и҆ кни́жницы и҆ска́хꙋ є҆го̀ погꙋби́ти, и҆ старѣ̑йшины лю́демъ:
And could not find what they might do: for all the people were very attentive to hear him.
καὶ οὐχ εὕρισκον τὸ τί ποιήσουσιν· ὁ λαὸς γὰρ ἅπας ἐξεκρέματο αὐτοῦ ἀκούων.
и҆ не ѡ҆брѣта́хꙋ, что́ бы сотвори́ли є҆мꙋ̀: лю́дїе бо всѝ держа́хꙋсѧ є҆гѡ̀, послꙋ́шающе є҆го̀.
