Philippians 1:20–27 § 238

Philippians 1:20–27 § 238

Brethren, in nothing I shall be ashamed, but that with all boldness, as always, so now also Christ will be magnified in my body, whether it be by life or by death. For to me, to live is Christ, and to die is gain. But if I live in the flesh, this will mean fruit from my labor; yet what I shall choose I cannot tell. For I am hard pressed between the two, having a desire to depart and be with Christ, which is far better. Nevertheless to remain in the flesh is more needful for you. And being confident of this, I know that I shall remain and continue with you all for your progress and joy of faith, that your rejoicing for me may be more abundant in Jesus Christ by my coming to you again… Only let your conduct be worthy of the Gospel of Christ …

Luke 11.47-12.1 § 62

Luke 11.47-12.1 § 62

Chapter 11

47

Woe unto you! for ye build the sepulchres of the prophets, and your fathers killed them.

οὐαὶ ὑμῖν, ὅτι οἰκοδομεῖτε τὰ μνημεῖα τῶν προφητῶν, οἱ δὲ πατέρες ὑμῶν ἀπέκτειναν αὐτούς.

[Заⷱ҇ 62] Го́ре ва́мъ, ꙗ҆́кѡ зи́ждете гро́бы прⷪ҇рѡ́къ, ѻ҆тцы́ же ва́ши и҆зби́ша и҆̀хъ:

48

Truly ye bear witness that ye allow the deeds of your fathers: for they indeed killed them, and ye build their sepulchres.

ἄρα μαρτυρεῖτε καὶ συνευδοκεῖτε τοῖς ἔργοις τῶν πατέρων ὑμῶν, ὅτι αὐτοὶ μὲν ἀπέκτειναν αὐτούς, ὑμεῖς δὲ οἰκοδομεῖτε αὐτῶν τὰ μνημεῖα.

ᲂу҆̀бо свидѣ́тельствꙋете и҆ соблаговолитѐ дѣлѡ́мъ ѻ҆тє́цъ ва́шихъ: ꙗ҆́кѡ ті́и ᲂу҆́бѡ и҆зби́ша и҆̀хъ, вы́ же зи́ждете и҆́хъ гро́бы.

49

Therefore also said the wisdom of God, I will send them prophets and apostles, and some of them they shall slay and persecute:

διὰ τοῦτο καὶ ἡ σοφία τοῦ Θεοῦ εἶπεν· ἀποστελῶ εἰς αὐτοὺς προφήτας καὶ ἀποστόλους, καὶ ἐξ αὐτῶν ἀποκτενοῦσι καὶ ἐκδιώξουσιν,

Сегѡ̀ ра́ди и҆ премⷣрость бж҃їѧ речѐ: послю̀ въ ни́хъ {къ ни̑мъ} прⷪ҇ро́ки и҆ а҆пⷭ҇лы, и҆ ѿ ни́хъ ᲂу҆бїю́тъ и҆ и҆зженꙋ́тъ:

50

That the blood of all the prophets, which was shed from the foundation of the world, may be required of this generation;

ἵνα ἐκζητηθῇ τὸ αἷμα πάντων τῶν προφητῶν τὸ ἐκχυνόμενον ἀπὸ καταβολῆς κόσμου ἀπὸ τῆς γενεᾶς ταύτης,

да взы́щетсѧ кро́вь всѣ́хъ прⷪ҇рѡ́къ, пролива́емаѧ ѿ сложе́нїѧ мі́ра, ѿ ро́да сегѡ̀,

51

From the blood of Abel unto the blood of Zacharias which perished between the altar and the temple: verily I say unto you, It shall be required of this generation.

ἀπὸ τοῦ αἵματος Ἄβελ ἕως τοῦ αἵματος Ζαχαρίου τοῦ ἀπολομένου μεταξὺ τοῦ θυσιαστηρίου καὶ τοῦ οἴκου· ναί, λέγω ὑμῖν, ἐκζητηθήσεται ἀπὸ τῆς γενεᾶς ταύτης.

ѿ кро́ве а҆́велѧ да́же до кро́ве заха́рїи, поги́бшагѡ междꙋ̀ ѻ҆лтаре́мъ и҆ хра́момъ: є҆́й, гл҃ю ва́мъ, взы́щетсѧ ѿ ро́да сегѡ̀.

52

Woe unto you, lawyers! for ye have taken away the key of knowledge: ye entered not in yourselves, and them that were entering in ye hindered.

οὐαὶ ὑμῖν τοῖς νομικοῖς ὅτι ἤρατε τὴν κλεῖδα τῆς γνώσεως· αὐτοὶ οὐκ εἰσήλθετε, καὶ τοὺς εἰσερχομένους ἐκωλύσατε.

Го́ре ва́мъ зако́нникѡмъ, ꙗ҆́кѡ взѧ́сте клю́чь разꙋмѣ́нїѧ: са́ми не внидо́сте, и҆ входѧ́щымъ возбрани́сте.

53

And as he said these things unto them, the scribes and the Pharisees began to urge him vehemently, and to provoke him to speak of many things:

Λέγοντος δὲ αὐτοῦ πρὸς αὐτοὺς ταῦτα ἤρξαντο οἱ γραμματεῖς καὶ οἱ Φαρισαῖοι δεινῶς ἐνέχειν καὶ ἀποστοματίζειν αὐτὸν περὶ πλειόνων,

Гл҃ющꙋ же є҆мꙋ̀ сїѧ̑ къ ни̑мъ, нача́ша кни́жницы и҆ фарїсе́є бѣ́днѣ {ѕѣлѡ̀} гнѣ́ватисѧ на́нь и҆ преста́ти {вопроша́ти} є҆го̀ ѡ҆ мно́зѣ,

54

Laying wait for him, and seeking to catch something out of his mouth, that they might accuse him.

ἐνεδρεύοντες αὐτόν, ζητοῦντες θηρεῦσαί τι ἐκ τοῦ στόματος αὐτοῦ, ἵνα κατηγορήσωσιν αὐτοῦ.

ла́юще є҆го̀ {навѣ́тꙋюще на́нь}, и҆́щꙋще ᲂу҆лови́ти нѣ́что ѿ ᲂу҆́стъ є҆гѡ̀, да на́нь возглаго́лютъ.

Chapter 12

1

IN the mean time, when there were gathered together an innumerable multitude of people, insomuch that they trode one upon another, he began to say unto his disciples first of all, Beware ye of the leaven of the Pharisees, which is hypocrisy.

Ἐν οἷς ἐπισυναχθεισῶν τῶν μυριάδων τοῦ ὄχλου ὡς καταπατεῖν ἀλλήλους, ἤρξατο λέγειν πρὸς τοὺς μαθητὰς αὐτοῦ πρῶτον· προσέχετε ἑαυτοῖς ἀπὸ τῆς ζύμης τῶν Φαρισαίων, ἥτις ἐστὶν ὑπόκρισις.

Ѡ҆ ни́хже {междꙋ̀ тѣ́мъ} собра́вшымсѧ тьма́мъ наро́да, ꙗ҆́кѡ попира́ти дрꙋ́гъ дрꙋ́га, нача́тъ гл҃ати ᲂу҆чн҃кѡ́мъ свои̑мъ пе́рвѣе: внемли́те себѣ̀ ѿ ква́са фарїсе́йска, є҆́же є҆́сть лицемѣ́рїе.
