1. Jesus said to His followers, "For sure, things will come that will make people sin. But it is bad for the person who makes someone else sin.
|
1. Then G1161 said G2036 he unto G4314 the G3588 disciples G3101 , It is G2076 impossible G418 but that G3361 offenses G4625 will come G2064 : but G1161 woe G3759 unto him, through G1223 whom G3739 they come G2064 !
|
|
2. It would be better for him to have a large rock put around his neck and be thrown into the sea, than that he should cause one of these little ones to sin.
|
2. It were better G3081 for him G846 that G1487 a millstone G3458 G3684 were hanged G4029 about G4012 his G846 neck G5137 , and G2532 he cast G4496 into G1519 the G3588 sea G2281 , than G2228 that G2443 he should offend G4624 one G1520 of these G5130 little ones G3398 .
|
|
3. "Watch yourselves! If your brother sins, speak sharp words to him. If he is sorry and turns from his sin, forgive him.
|
3. Take heed G4337 to yourselves G1438 G1161 : If G1437 thy G4675 brother G80 trespass G264 against G1519 thee G4571 , rebuke G2008 him G846 ; and G2532 if G1437 he repent G3340 , forgive G863 him G846 .
|
|
4. What if he sins against you seven times in one day? If he comes to you and says he is sorry and turns from his sin, forgive him."
|
4. And G2532 if G1437 he trespass G264 against G1519 thee G4571 seven times G2034 in a day G2250 , and G2532 seven times G2034 in a day G2250 turn again G1994 to G1909 thee G4571 , saying G3004 , I repent G3340 ; thou shalt forgive G863 him G846 .
|
|
5. The missionaries said to the Lord, "Give us more faith."
|
5. And G2532 the G3588 apostles G652 said G2036 unto the G3588 Lord G2962 , Increase G4369 our G2254 faith G4102 .
|
|
6. The Lord said, "If your faith was as a mustard seed, you could say to this tree, 'Be pulled out of the ground and planted in the sea,' and it would obey you.
|
6. And G1161 the G3588 Lord G2962 said G2036 , If G1487 ye had G2192 faith G4102 as G5613 a grain G2848 of mustard seed G4615 , ye might say G3004 G302 unto this G5026 sycamine tree G4807 , Be thou plucked up by the root G1610 , and G2532 be thou planted G5452 in G1722 the G3588 sea G2281 ; and G2532 it should obey G5219 G302 you G5213 .
|
|
7. "What if you owned a servant who was working in the field or taking care of sheep? Would you say to him when he came in from his work, 'Come and sit down to eat?'
|
7. But G1161 which G5101 of G1537 you G5216 , having G2192 a servant G1401 plowing G722 or G2228 feeding cattle G4165 , will say G2046 unto him by and by G2112 , when he is come G1525 from G1537 the G3588 field G68 , Go G3928 and sit down to meat G377 ?
|
|
8. No, instead you would say, 'Get my supper ready. Dress yourself and care for me until I am through eating and drinking. Then you can eat and drink.'
|
8. And G235 will not G3780 rather say G2046 unto him G846 , Make ready G2090 wherewith G5101 I may sup G1172 , and G2532 gird G4024 thyself, and serve G1247 me G3427 , till G2193 I have eaten G5315 and G2532 drunken G4095 ; and G2532 afterward G3326 G5023 thou G4771 shalt eat G5315 and G2532 drink G4095 ?
|
|
9. Does the servant get thanks for doing what he was told to do? I am sure he does not.
|
9. Doth he thank G2192 G3361 G5485 that G1565 servant G1401 because G3754 he did G4160 the things that were commanded G1299 him G846 ? I think G1380 not G3756 .
|
|
10. It is the same with you also. When you do everything you have been told to do, you must say, 'We are not any special servants. We have done only what we should have done.' "
|
10. So likewise G3779 G2532 ye G5210 , when G3752 ye shall have done G4160 all G3956 those things which are commanded G1299 you G5213 , say G3004 , We are G2070 unprofitable G888 servants G1401 : we G3754 have done G4160 that which G3739 was our duty G3784 to do G4160 .
|
|
11. Jesus went on His way to Jerusalem. He was passing between the countries of Samaria and Galilee.
|
11. And G2532 it came to pass G1096 , as he G846 went G4198 to G1519 Jerusalem G2419 , that G2532 he G846 passed G1330 through G1223 the midst G3319 of Samaria G4540 and G2532 Galilee G1056 .
|
|
12. As He was going into one of the towns, ten men with a bad skin disease came to Him. They stood a little way off.
|
12. And G2532 as he G846 entered G1525 into G1519 a certain G5100 village G2968 , there met G528 him G846 ten G1176 men G435 that were lepers G3015 , which G3739 stood G2476 afar off G4207 :
|
|
13. They called to Him, "Jesus! Teacher! Take pity on us!"
|
13. And G2532 they G846 lifted up G142 their voices G5456 , and said G3004 , Jesus G2424 , Master G1988 , have mercy G1653 on us G2248 .
|
|
14. When Jesus saw them, He said, "Go and show yourselves to the religious leaders." As they went, they were healed.
|
14. And G2532 when he saw G1492 them, he said G2036 unto them G846 , Go G4198 show G1925 yourselves G1438 unto the G3588 priests G2409 . And G2532 it came to pass G1096 , that , as they G846 went G5217 , they were cleansed G2511 .
|
|
15. One of them turned back when he saw he was healed. He thanked God with a loud voice.
|
15. And G1161 one G1520 of G1537 them G846 , when he saw G1492 that G3754 he was healed G2390 , turned back G5290 , and with G3326 a loud G3173 voice G5456 glorified G1392 God G2316 ,
|
|
16. He got down on his face at the feet of Jesus and thanked Him. He was from the country of Samaria.
|
16. And G2532 fell down G4098 on G1909 his face G4383 at G3844 his G846 feet G4228 , giving him thanks G2168 G846 : and G2532 he G846 was G2258 a Samaritan G4541 .
|
|
17. Jesus asked, "Were there not ten men who were healed? Where are the other nine?
|
17. And G1161 Jesus G2424 answering G611 said G2036 , Were there not G3780 ten G1176 cleansed G2511 ? but G1161 where G4226 are the G3588 nine G1767 ?
|
|
18. Is this stranger from another country the only one who turned back to give thanks to God?"
|
18. There are not G3756 found G2147 that returned G5290 to give G1325 glory G1391 to God G2316 , save G1508 this G3778 stranger G241 .
|
|
19. Then Jesus said to him, "Get up and go on your way. Your trust in God has healed you."
|
19. And G2532 he said G2036 unto him G846 , Arise G450 , go thy way G4198 : thy G4675 faith G4102 hath made thee whole G4982 G4571 .
|
|
20. The proud religious law-keepers asked when the holy nation of God would come. Jesus said to them, "The holy nation of God is not coming in such a way that can be seen with the eyes.
|
20. And G1161 when he was demanded G1905 of G5259 the G3588 Pharisees G5330 , when G4219 the G3588 kingdom G932 of God G2316 should come G2064 , he answered G611 them G846 and G2532 said G2036 , The G3588 kingdom G932 of God G2316 cometh G2064 not G3756 with G3326 observation G3907 :
|
|
21. It will not be said, 'See, here it is!' or, 'There it is!' For the holy nation of God is in you."
|
21. Neither G3761 shall they say G2046 , Lo G2400 here G5602 ! or G2228 , lo G2400 there G1563 ! for G1063 , behold G2400 , the G3588 kingdom G932 of God G2316 is G2076 within G1787 you G5216 .
|
|
22. Jesus said to His followers, "The time will come when you will wish you could see the Son of Man for one day. But you will not be able to.
|
22. And G1161 he said G2036 unto G4314 the G3588 disciples G3101 , The days G2250 will come G2064 , when G3753 ye shall desire G1937 to see G1492 one G3391 of the G3588 days G2250 of the G3588 Son G5207 of man G444 , and G2532 ye shall not G3756 see G3700 it.
|
|
23. They will say to you, 'He is here,' or, 'He is there,' but do not follow them.
|
23. And G2532 they shall say G2046 to you G5213 , See G2400 here G5602 ; or G2228 , see G2400 there G1563 : go not after G565 G3361 them, nor G3366 follow G1377 them.
|
|
24. When the Son of Man comes, He will be as lightning that shines from one part of the sky to the other.
|
24. For G1063 as G5618 the G3588 lightning G796 , that lighteneth G797 out G1537 of the one G3588 part under G5259 heaven G3772 , shineth G2989 unto G1519 the other G3588 part under G5259 heaven G3772 ; so G3779 shall also G2532 the G3588 Son G5207 of man G444 be G2071 in G1722 his G848 day G2250 .
|
|
25. But before that, He must suffer many hard things. The people of this day will have nothing to do with Him.
|
25. But G1161 first G4412 must G1163 he G846 suffer G3958 many things G4183 , and G2532 be rejected G593 of G575 this G5026 generation G1074 .
|
|
26. "As it was in the time of Noah, so will it be when the Son of Man comes back.
|
26. And G2532 as G2531 it was G1096 in G1722 the G3588 days G2250 of Noah G3575 , so G3779 shall it be G2071 also G2532 in G1722 the G3588 days G2250 of the G3588 Son G5207 of man G444 .
|
|
27. People ate and drank. They married and were given in marriage. They did these things until the day Noah went into the large boat. Then the flood came and killed all the people on earth.
|
27. They did eat G2068 , they drank G4095 , they married wives G1060 , they were given in marriage G1547 , until G891 the G3739 day G2250 that Noah G3575 entered G1525 into G1519 the G3588 ark G2787 , and G2532 the G3588 flood G2627 came G2064 , and G2532 destroyed G622 them all G537 .
|
|
28. It was the same in the time of Lot. People ate and drank. They bought and sold. They planted and built.
|
28. Likewise G3668 also G2532 as G5613 it was G1096 in G1722 the G3588 days G2250 of Lot G3091 ; they did eat G2068 , they drank G4095 , they bought G59 , they sold G4453 , they planted G5452 , they builded G3618 ;
|
|
29. But the day Lot left the city of Sodom, fire and sulphur came down from heaven like rain. It killed all the people of Sodom.
|
29. But G1161 the same G3739 day G2250 that Lot G3091 went out G1831 of G575 Sodom G4670 it rained G1026 fire G4442 and G2532 brimstone G2303 from G575 heaven G3772 , and G2532 destroyed G622 them all G537 .
|
|
30. "It will be the same on the day when the Son of Man comes again.
|
30. Even thus G2596 G5024 shall it be G2071 in the G3739 day G2250 when the G3588 Son G5207 of man G444 is revealed G601 .
|
|
31. In that day the man who is on top of a house should not come down to take his things out of the house. In the same way, the man who is in the field should not go back to his house.
|
31. In G1722 that G1565 day G2250 , he which G3739 shall be G2071 upon G1909 the G3588 housetop G1430 , and G2532 his G846 stuff G4632 in G1722 the G3588 house G3614 , let him not G3361 come down G2597 to take it away G142 G846 : and G2532 he G3588 that is in G1722 the G3588 field G68 , let him likewise G3668 not G3361 return G1994 back G1519 G3694 .
|
|
32. Remember Lot's wife!
|
32. Remember G3421 Lot G3091 's wife G1135 .
|
|
33. "He who wants to keep his life will have it taken away from him. He who loses his life will have it given back to him.
|
33. Whosoever G3739 G1437 shall seek G2212 to save G4982 his G848 life G5590 shall lose G622 it G846 ; and G2532 whosoever G3739 G1437 shall lose G622 his G848 life shall preserve G2225 it G846 .
|
|
34. I tell you, on that night there will be two men in the same bed. One of them will be taken. The other will be left.
|
34. I tell G3004 you G5213 , in that G5026 night G3571 there shall be G2071 two G1417 men in G1909 one G3391 bed G2825 ; the G3588 one G1520 shall be taken G3880 , and G2532 the G3588 other G2087 shall be left G863 .
|
|
35. Two women will be grinding grain together. One of them will be taken. The other will be left.
|
35. Two G1417 women shall be G2071 grinding G229 together G1909 G846 ; the G3588 one G3391 shall be taken G3880 , and G2532 the G3588 other G2087 left G863 .
|
|
36. *Two men will be working in a field. One will be taken. The other will be left."
|
36. Two G1417 men shall be G2071 in G1722 the G3588 field G68 ; the G3588 one G1520 shall be taken G3880 , and G2532 the G3588 other G2087 left G863 .
|
|
37. Then they asked Jesus, "Where will this happen?" He said to them, "Birds also gather where there is a dead body."
|
37. And G2532 they answered G611 and said G3004 unto him G846 , Where G4226 , Lord G2962 ? And G1161 he G3588 said G2036 unto them G846 , Wheresoever G3699 the G3588 body G4983 is, thither G1563 will the G3588 eagles G105 be gathered together G4863 .
