1 Corinthians 15:58–16:3 § 164
Brethren, be steadfast, immovable, always abounding in the work of the Lord, knowing that your labor is not in vain in the Lord… Now concerning the collection for the saints, as I have given orders to the Churches of Galátia, so you must also do: On the first day of the week let each one of you lay something aside, storing up as he may prosper, that there be no collections when I come. And when I come, whomever you approve by your letters, I will send to bear your gift unto Jerusalem.
Luke 8.16-21
§ 36
Luke 8.16-21 § 36
No man, when he hath lighted a candle, covereth it with a vessel, or putteth it under a bed; but setteth it on a candlestick, that they which enter in may see the light.
Οὐδεὶς δὲ λύχνον ἅψας καλύπτει αὐτὸν σκεύει ἢ ὑποκάτω κλίνης τίθησιν, ἀλλ᾿ ἐπὶ λυχνίας ἐπιτίθησιν, ἵνα οἱ εἰσπορευόμενοι βλέπωσι τὸ φῶς.
[Заⷱ҇ 36] Никто́же (ᲂу҆̀бо) свѣти́льника вже́гъ, покрыва́етъ є҆го̀ сосꙋ́домъ, и҆лѝ под̾ ѻ҆́дръ подлага́етъ: но на свѣ́щникъ возлага́етъ, да входѧ́щїи ви́дѧтъ свѣ́тъ.
For nothing is secret, that shall not be made manifest; neither any thing hid, that shall not be known and come abroad.
οὐ γάρ ἐστι κρυπτὸν ὃ οὐ φανερὸν γενήσεται, οὐδὲ ἀπόκρυφον ὃ οὐ γνωσθήσεται καὶ εἰς φανερὸν ἔλθῃ.
Нѣ́сть бо та́йно, є҆́же не ꙗ҆вле́но бꙋ́детъ: нижѐ ᲂу҆тае́но, є҆́же не позна́етсѧ и҆ въ ꙗ҆вле́нїе прїи́детъ.
Take heed therefore how ye hear: for whosoever hath, to him shall be given; and whosoever hath not, from him shall be taken even that which he seemeth to have.
βλέπετε οὖν πῶς ἀκούετε· ὃς γὰρ ἐὰν ἔχῃ, δοθήσεται αὐτῷ, καὶ ὃς ἐὰν μὴ ἔχῃ, καὶ ὃ δοκεῖ ἔχειν ἀρθήσεται ἀπ᾿ αὐτοῦ.
Блюди́тесѧ ᲂу҆̀бо, ка́кѡ слы́шите: и҆́же бо и҆́мать, да́стсѧ є҆мꙋ̀: и҆ и҆́же а҆́ще не и҆́мать, и҆ є҆́же мни́тсѧ и҆мѣ́ѧ, во́зметсѧ ѿ негѡ̀.
Then came to him his mother and his brethren, and could not come at him for the press.
Παρεγένοντο δὲ πρὸς αὐτὸν ἡ μήτηρ καὶ οἱ ἀδελφοὶ αὐτοῦ, καὶ οὐκ ἠδύναντο συντυχεῖν αὐτῷ διὰ τὸν ὄχλον.
Прїидо́ша же къ немꙋ̀ мт҃и и҆ бра́тїѧ є҆гѡ̀, и҆ не можа́хꙋ бесѣ́довати къ немꙋ̀ наро́да ра́ди.
And it was told him by certain which said, Thy mother and thy brethren stand without, desiring to see thee.
καὶ ἀπηγγέλη αὐτῷ λεγόντων· ἡ μήτηρ σου καὶ οἱ ἀδελφοί σου ἑστήκασιν ἔξω ἰδεῖν σε θέλοντες.
И҆ возвѣсти́ша є҆мꙋ̀, глаго́люще: мт҃и твоѧ̀ и҆ бра́тїѧ твоѧ̑ внѣ̀ стоѧ́тъ, ви́дѣти тѧ̀ хотѧ́ще.
And he answered and said unto them, My mother and my brethren are these which hear the word of God, and do it.
ὁ δὲ ἀποκριθεὶς εἶπε πρὸς αὐτούς· μήτηρ μου καὶ ἀδελφοί μου οὗτοί εἰσιν οἱ τὸν λόγον τοῦ Θεοῦ ἀκούοντες καὶ ποιοῦντες αὐτόν.
Ѻ҆́нъ же ѿвѣща́въ речѐ къ ни̑мъ: ма́ти моѧ̀ и҆ бра́тїѧ моѧ̑ сі́и сꙋ́ть, слы́шащїи сло́во бж҃їе, и҆ творѧ́щїи є҆̀.
