1 Corinthians 9:2–12 § 141

1 Corinthians 9:2–12 § 141

Brethren, you are the seal of my apostleship in the Lord. My defense to those who examine me is this: Have we not the power to eat and drink? Have we not the power to take along a believing wife, as do also the other Apostles, the brothers of the Lord, and Céphas? Or is it only Barnabas and I who have no right to refrain from working? Who ever goes to war at his own expense? Who plants a vineyard and does not eat of its fruit? Or who feeds a flock and does not drink of the milk of the flock? Do I say these things as a mere man? Or does not the law say the same also? For it is written in the law of Moses, “Thou shalt not muzzle the mouth of an ox that treads out the grain.” Is it the oxen that concern God? Or does He say it altogether for our sakes? For our sakes, no doubt, this is written, that he who plows should plow in hope, and he who threshes in hope should be partaker of his hope. If we have sown unto you spiritual things, is it a great thing if we shall reap your material things? If others are partakers of this right over you, are we not even more? Nevertheless we have not used this right, but endure all things lest we should hinder the Gospel of Christ.

Matthew 18.23-35 § 77

Matthew 18.23-35 § 77

23

Therefore is the kingdom of heaven likened unto a certain king, which would take account of his servants.

Διὰ τοῦτο ὡμοιώθη ἡ βασιλεία τῶν οὐρανῶν ἀνθρώπῳ βασιλεῖ, ὃς ἠθέλησε συνᾶραι λόγον μετὰ τῶν δούλων αὐτοῦ.

[Заⷱ҇ 77] Сегѡ̀ ра́ди ᲂу҆подо́бисѧ црⷭ҇твїе нбⷭ҇ное человѣ́кꙋ царю̀, и҆́же восхотѣ̀ стѧза́тисѧ ѡ҆ словесѝ съ рабы̑ свои́ми.

24

And when he had begun to reckon, one was brought unto him, which owed him ten thousand talents.

ἀρξαμένου δὲ αὐτοῦ συναίρειν προσηνέχθη αὐτῷ εἷς ὀφειλέτης μυρίων ταλάντων.

Наче́ншꙋ же є҆мꙋ̀ стѧза́тисѧ, приведо́ша є҆мꙋ̀ є҆ди́наго должника̀ тьмо́ю тала̑нтъ:

25

But forasmuch as he had not to pay, his lord commanded him to be sold, and his wife, and children, and all that he had, and payment to be made.

μὴ ἔχοντος δὲ αὐτοῦ ἀποδοῦναι ἐκέλευσεν αὐτὸν ὁ κύριος αὐτοῦ πραθῆναι καὶ τὴν γυναῖκα αὐτοῦ καὶ τὰ τέκνα καὶ πάντα ὅσα εἶχε, καὶ ἀποδοθῆναι.

не и҆мꙋ́щꙋ же є҆мꙋ̀ возда́ти, повелѣ̀ и҆̀ госпо́дь є҆гѡ̀ прода́ти, и҆ женꙋ̀ є҆гѡ̀, и҆ ча̑да, и҆ всѧ̑, є҆ли̑ка и҆мѣ́ѧше, и҆ ѿда́ти.

26

The servant therefore fell down, and worshipped him, saying, Lord, have patience with me, and I will pay thee all.

πεσὼν οὖν ὁ δοῦλος προσεκύνει αὐτῷ λέγων· κύριε, μακροθύμησον ἐπ᾿ ἐμοὶ καὶ πάντα σοι ἀποδώσω.

Па́дъ ᲂу҆̀бо ра́бъ то́й, кла́нѧшесѧ є҆мꙋ̀, глаго́лѧ: го́споди, потерпѝ на мнѣ̀, и҆ всѧ̑ тѝ возда́мъ.

27

Then the lord of that servant was moved with compassion, and loosed him, and forgave him the debt.

σπλαγχνισθεὶς δὲ ὁ κύριος τοῦ δούλου ἐκείνου ἀπέλυσεν αὐτὸν καὶ τὸ δάνειον ἀφῆκεν αὐτῷ.

Милосе́рдовавъ же госпо́дь раба̀ того̀, простѝ є҆го̀ и҆ до́лгъ ѿпꙋстѝ є҆мꙋ̀.

28

But the same servant went out, and found one of his fellowservants, which owed him an hundred pence: and he laid hands on him, and took him by the throat, saying, Pay me that thou owest.

ἐξελθὼν δὲ ὁ δοῦλος ἐκεῖνος εὗρεν ἕνα τῶν συνδούλων αὐτοῦ, ὃς ὤφειλεν αὐτῷ ἑκατὸν δηνάρια, καὶ κρατήσας αὐτὸν ἔπνιγε λέγων· ἀπόδος μοι εἴ τι ὀφείλεις.

И҆зше́дъ же ра́бъ то́й, ѡ҆брѣ́те є҆ди́наго (ѿ) клеврє́тъ свои́хъ, и҆́же бѣ̀ до́лженъ є҆мꙋ̀ сто́мъ пѣ̑нѧзь: и҆ є҆́мь є҆го̀ давлѧ́ше, глаго́лѧ: ѿда́ждь мѝ, и҆́мже (мѝ) є҆сѝ до́лженъ.

29

And his fellowservant fell down at his feet, and besought him, saying, Have patience with me, and I will pay thee all.

πεσὼν οὖν ὁ σύνδουλος αὐτοῦ εἰς τοὺς πόδας αὐτοῦ παρεκάλει αὐτὸν λέγων· μακροθύμησον ἐπ᾿ ἐμοὶ καὶ ἀποδώσω σοι.

Па́дъ ᲂу҆̀бо клевре́тъ є҆гѡ̀ на но́зѣ є҆гѡ̀, молѧ́ше є҆го̀, глаго́лѧ: потерпѝ на мнѣ̀, и҆ всѧ̑ возда́мъ тѝ.

30

And he would not: but went and cast him into prison, till he should pay the debt.

ὁ δὲ οὐκ ἤθελεν, ἀλλὰ ἀπελθὼν ἔβαλεν αὐτὸν εἰς φυλακὴν ἕως οὗ ἀποδῷ τὸ ὀφειλόμενον.

Ѻ҆́нъ же не хотѧ́ше, но ве́дъ всадѝ є҆го̀ въ темни́цꙋ, до́ндеже возда́стъ до́лжное.

31

So when his fellowservants saw what was done, they were very sorry, and came and told unto their lord all that was done.

ἰδόντες δὲ οἱ σύνδουλοι αὐτοῦ τὰ γενόμενα ἐλυπήθησαν σφόδρα, καὶ ἐλθόντες διεσάφησαν τῷ κυρίῳ ἑαυτῶν πάντα τὰ γενόμενα.

Ви́дѣвше же клевре́ти є҆гѡ̀ бы̑вшаѧ, сжа́лиша сѝ ѕѣлѡ̀ и҆ прише́дше сказа́ша господи́нꙋ своемꙋ̀ всѧ̑ бы̑вшаѧ.

32

Then his lord, after that he had called him, said unto him, O thou wicked servant, I forgave thee all that debt, because thou desiredst me:

τότε προσκαλεσάμενος αὐτὸν ὁ κύριος αὐτοῦ λέγει αὐτῷ· δοῦλε πονηρέ, πᾶσαν τὴν ὀφειλὴν ἐκείνην ἀφῆκά σοι, ἐπεὶ παρεκάλεσάς με.

Тогда̀ призва́въ є҆го̀ господи́нъ є҆гѡ̀, глаго́ла є҆мꙋ̀: ра́бе лꙋка́вый, ве́сь до́лгъ ѡ҆́нъ ѿпꙋсти́хъ тебѣ̀, поне́же ᲂу҆моли́лъ мѧ̀ є҆сѝ:

33

Shouldest not thou also have had compassion on thy fellowservant, even as I had pity on thee?

οὐκ ἔδει καὶ σὲ ἐλεῆσαι τὸν σύνδουλόν σου, ὡς καὶ ἐγώ σε ἠλέησα;

не подоба́ше ли и҆ тебѣ̀ поми́ловати клевре́та твоего̀, ꙗ҆́коже и҆ а҆́зъ тѧ̀ поми́ловахъ;

34

And his lord was wroth, and delivered him to the tormentors, till he should pay all that was due unto him.

καὶ ὀργισθεὶς ὁ κύριος αὐτοῦ παρέδωκεν αὐτὸν τοῖς βασανισταῖς ἕως οὗ ἀποδῷ πᾶν τὸ ὀφειλόμενον αὐτῷ.

И҆ прогнѣ́вавсѧ госпо́дь є҆гѡ̀, предадѐ є҆го̀ мꙋчи́телємъ, до́ндеже возда́стъ ве́сь до́лгъ сво́й.

35

So likewise shall my heavenly Father do also unto you, if ye from your hearts forgive not every one his brother their trespasses.

οὕτω καὶ ὁ πατήρ μου ὁ ἐπουράνιος ποιήσει ὑμῖν, ἐὰν μὴ ἀφῆτε ἕκαστος τῷ ἀδελφῷ αὐτοῦ ἀπὸ τῶν καρδιῶν ὑμῶν τὰ παραπτώματα αὐτῶν.

Та́кѡ и҆ ѻ҆ц҃ъ мо́й нбⷭ҇ный сотвори́тъ ва́мъ, а҆́ще не ѿпꙋститѐ кі́йждо бра́тꙋ своемꙋ̀ ѿ серде́цъ ва́шихъ прегрѣшє́нїѧ и҆́хъ.
