Berean Standard Bible
1Et factum est: cum esset in quodam loco orans, ut cessavit, dixit unus ex discipulis ejus ad eum: Domine, doce nos orare, sicut docuit et Joannes discipulos suos.
1One day in a place where Jesus had just finished praying, one of His disciples requested, “Lord, teach us to pray, just as John taught his disciples.”
2Et ait illis: Cum oratis, dicite: Pater, sanctificetur nomen tuum. Adveniat regnum tuum.
2So Jesus told them, “When you pray, say: ‘Father, hallowed be Your name. Your kingdom come.
3Panem nostrum quotidianum da nobis hodie.
3Give us each day our daily bread.
4Et dimitte nobis peccata nostra, siquidem et ipsi dimittimus omni debenti nobis. Et ne nos inducas in tentationem.
4And forgive us our sins, for we also forgive everyone who sins against us. And lead us not into temptation.’”
5Et ait ad illos: Quis vestrum habebit amicum, et ibit ad illum media nocte, et dicet illi: Amice, commoda mihi tres panes,
5Then Jesus said to them, “Suppose one of you goes to his friend at midnight and says, ‘Friend, lend me three loaves of bread,
6quoniam amicus meus venit de via ad me, et non habeo quod ponam ante illum,
6because a friend of mine has come to me on a journey, and I have nothing to set before him.’
7et ille de intus respondens dicat: Noli mihi molestus esse, jam ostium clausum est, et pueri mei mecum sunt in cubili: non possum surgere, et dare tibi.
7And suppose the one inside answers, ‘Do not bother me. My door is already shut, and my children and I are in bed. I cannot get up to give you anything.’
8Et si ille perseveraverit pulsans: dico vobis, etsi non dabit illi surgens eo quod amicus ejus sit, propter improbitatem tamen ejus surget, et dabit illi quotquot habet necessarios.
8I tell you, even though he will not get up to provide for him because of his friendship, yet because of the man’s persistence, he will get up and give him as much as he needs.
9Et ego dico vobis: Petite, et dabitur vobis; quærite, et invenietis; pulsate, et aperietur vobis.
9So I tell you: Ask, and it will be given to you; seek, and you will find; knock, and the door will be opened to you.
10Omnis enim qui petit, accipit: et qui quærit, invenit: et pulsanti aperietur.
10For everyone who asks receives; he who seeks finds; and to him who knocks, the door will be opened.
11Quis autem ex vobis patrem petit panem, numquid lapidem dabit illi? aut piscem, numquid pro pisce serpentem dabit illi?
11What father among you, if his son asks for a fish, will give him a snake instead?
12aut si petierit ovum, numquid porriget illi scorpionem?
12Or if he asks for an egg, will give him a scorpion?
13Si ergo vos, cum sitis mali, nostis bona data dare filiis vestris: quanto magis Pater vester de cælo dabit spiritum bonum petentibus se?
13So if you who are evil know how to give good gifts to your children, how much more will your Father in heaven give the Holy Spirit to those who ask Him!”
14Et erat ejiciens dæmonium, et illud erat mutum. Et cum ejecisset dæmonium, locutus est mutus, et admiratæ sunt turbæ.
14One day Jesus was driving out a demon that was mute. And when the demon was gone, the man who had been mute spoke. The crowds were amazed,
15Quidam autem ex eis dixerunt: In Beelzebub principe dæmoniorum ejicit dæmonia.
15but some of them said, “It is by Beelzebul, the prince of the demons, that He drives out demons.”
16Et alii tentantes, signum de cælo quærebant ab eo.
16And others tested Him by demanding a sign from heaven.
17Ipse autem ut vidit cogitationes eorum, dixit eis: Omne regnum in seipsum divisum desolabitur, et domus supra domum cadet.
17Knowing their thoughts, Jesus said to them, “Every kingdom divided against itself will be laid waste, and a house divided against a house will fall.
18Si autem et Satanas in seipsum divisus est, quomodo stabit regnum ejus? quia dicitis in Beelzebub me ejicere dæmonia.
18If Satan is divided against himself, how can his kingdom stand? After all, you say that I drive out demons by Beelzebul.
19Si autem ego in Beelzebub ejicio dæmonia: filii vestri in quo ejiciunt? ideo ipsi judices vestri erunt.
19And if I drive out demons by Beelzebul, by whom do your sons drive them out? So then, they will be your judges.
20Porro si in digito Dei ejicio dæmonia: profecto pervenit in vos regnum Dei.
20But if I drive out demons by the finger of God, then the kingdom of God has come upon you.
21Cum fortis armatus custodit atrium suum, in pace sunt ea quæ possidet.
21When a strong man, fully armed, guards his house, his possessions are secure.
22Si autem fortior eo superveniens vicerit eum, universa arma ejus auferet, in quibus confidebat, et spolia ejus distribuet.
22But when someone stronger attacks and overpowers him, he takes away the armor in which the man trusted, and then he divides up his plunder.
23Qui non est mecum, contra me est: et qui non colligit mecum, dispergit.
23He who is not with Me is against Me, and he who does not gather with Me scatters.
24Cum immundus spiritus exierit de homine, ambulat per loca inaquosa, quærens requiem: et non inveniens dicit: Revertar in domum meam unde exivi.
24When an unclean spirit comes out of a man, it passes through arid places seeking rest and does not find it. Then it says, ‘I will return to the house I left.’
25Et cum venerit, invenit eam scopis mundatam, et ornatam.
25On its return, it finds the house swept clean and put in order.
26Tunc vadit, et assumit septem alios spiritus secum, nequiores se, et ingressi habitant ibi. Et fiunt novissima hominis illius pejora prioribus.
26Then it goes and brings seven other spirits more wicked than itself, and they go in and dwell there. And the final plight of that man is worse than the first.”
27Factum est autem, cum hæc diceret: extollens vocem quædam mulier de turba dixit illi: Beatus venter qui te portavit, et ubera quæ suxisti.
27As Jesus was saying these things, a woman in the crowd raised her voice and said, “Blessed is the womb that bore You, and blessed are the breasts that nursed You!”
28At ille dixit: Quinimmo beati, qui audiunt verbum Dei et custodiunt illud.
28But He replied, “Blessed rather are those who hear the word of God and obey it.”
29Turbis autem concurrentibus cœpit dicere: Generatio hæc, generatio nequam est: signum quærit, et signum non dabitur ei, nisi signum Jonæ prophetæ.
29As the crowds were increasing, Jesus said, “This is a wicked generation. It demands a sign, but none will be given it except the sign of Jonah.
30Nam sicut fuit Jonas signum Ninivitis, ita erit et Filius hominis generationi isti.
30For as Jonah was a sign to the Ninevites, so the Son of Man will be a sign to this generation.
31Regina austri surget in judicio cum viris generationis hujus, et condemnabit illos: quia venit a finibus terræ audire sapientiam Salomonis: et ecce plus quam Salomon hic.
31The Queen of the South will rise at the judgment with the men of this generation and condemn them; for she came from the ends of the earth to hear the wisdom of Solomon, and now One greater than Solomon is here.
32Viri Ninivitæ surgent in judicio cum generatione hac, et condemnabunt illam: quia pœnitentiam egerunt ad prædicationem Jonæ, et ecce plus quam Jonas hic.
32The men of Nineveh will stand at the judgment with this generation and condemn it; for they repented at the preaching of Jonah, and now One greater than Jonah is here.
33Nemo lucernam accendit, et in abscondito ponit, neque sub modio: sed supra candelabrum, ut qui ingrediuntur, lumen videant.
33No one lights a lamp and puts it in a cellar or under a basket. Instead, he sets it on a stand, so those who enter can see the light.
34Lucerna corporis tui est oculus tuus. Si oculus tuus fuerit simplex, totum corpus tuum lucidum erit: si autem nequam fuerit, etiam corpus tuum tenebrosum erit.
34Your eye is the lamp of your body. When your eyes are good, your whole body also is full of light. But when they are bad, your body is full of darkness.
35Vide ergo ne lumen quod in te est, tenebræ sint.
35Be careful, then, that the light within you is not darkness.
36Si ergo corpus tuum totum lucidum fuerit, non habens aliquam partem tenebrarum, erit lucidum totum, et sicut lucerna fulgoris illuminabit te.
36So if your whole body is full of light, with no part of it in darkness, you will be radiant, as though a lamp were shining on you.”
37Et cum loqueretur, rogavit illum quidam pharisæus ut pranderet apud se. Et ingressus recubuit.
37As Jesus was speaking, a Pharisee invited Him to dine with him; so He went in and reclined at the table.
38Pharisæus autem cœpit intra se reputans dicere, quare non baptizatus esset ante prandium.
38But the Pharisee was surprised to see that Jesus did not first wash before the meal.
39Et ait Dominus ad illum: Nunc vos pharisæi, quod deforis est calicis et catini, mundatis: quod autem intus est vestrum, plenum est rapina et iniquitate.
39“Now then,” said the Lord, “you Pharisees clean the outside of the cup and dish, but inside you are full of greed and wickedness.
40Stulti ! nonne qui fecit quod deforis est, etiam id quod deintus est fecit?
40You fools! Did not the One who made the outside make the inside as well?
41Verumtamen quod superest, date eleemosynam: et ecce omnia munda sunt vobis.
41But give as alms the things that are within you, and you will see that everything is clean for you.
42Sed væ vobis, pharisæis, quia decimatis mentham, et rutam, et omne olus, et præteritis judicium et caritatem Dei: hæc autem oportuit facere, et illa non omittere.
42Woe to you Pharisees! You pay tithes of mint, rue, and every herb, but you disregard justice and the love of God. You should have practiced the latter without neglecting the former.
43Væ vobis, pharisæis, quia diligitis primas cathedras in synagogis, et salutationes in foro.
43Woe to you Pharisees! You love the chief seats in the synagogues and the greetings in the marketplaces.
44Væ vobis, quia estis ut monumenta, quæ non apparent, et homines ambulantes supra, nesciunt.
44Woe to you! For you are like unmarked graves, which men walk over without even noticing.”
45Respondens autem quidam ex legisperitis, ait illi: Magister, hæc dicens etiam contumeliam nobis facis.
45One of the experts in the law told Him, “Teacher, when You say these things, You insult us as well.”
46At ille ait: Et vobis legisperitis væ: quia oneratis homines oneribus, quæ portare non possunt, et ipsi uno digito vestro non tangitis sarcinas.
46“Woe to you as well, experts in the law!” He replied. “You weigh men down with heavy burdens, but you yourselves will not lift a finger to lighten their load.
47Væ vobis, qui ædificatis monumenta prophetarum: patres autem vestri occiderunt illos.
47Woe to you! You build tombs for the prophets, but it was your fathers who killed them.
48Profecto testificamini quod consentitis operibus patrum vestrorum: quoniam ipsi quidem eos occiderunt, vos autem ædificatis eorum sepulchra.
48So you are witnesses consenting to the deeds of your fathers: They killed the prophets, and you build their tombs.
49Propterea et sapientia Dei dixit: Mittam ad illos prophetas, et apostolos, et ex illis occident, et persequentur:
49Because of this, the wisdom of God said, ‘I will send them prophets and apostles; some of them they will kill and others they will persecute.’
50ut inquiratur sanguis omnium prophetarum, qui effusus est a constitutione mundi a generatione ista,
50As a result, this generation will be charged with the blood of all the prophets that has been shed since the foundation of the world,
51a sanguine Abel, usque ad sanguinem Zachariæ, qui periit inter altare et ædem. Ita dico vobis, requiretur ab hac generatione.
51from the blood of Abel to the blood of Zechariah, who was killed between the altar and the sanctuary. Yes, I tell you, all of it will be charged to this generation.
52Væ vobis, legisperitis, quia tulistis clavem scientiæ: ipsi non introistis, et eos qui introibant, prohibuistis.
52Woe to you experts in the law! For you have taken away the key to knowledge. You yourselves have not entered, and you have hindered those who were entering.”
53Cum autem hæc ad illos diceret, cœperunt pharisæi et legisperiti graviter insistere, et os ejus opprimere de multis,
53As Jesus went on from there, the scribes and Pharisees began to oppose Him bitterly and to ply Him with questions about many things,
54insidiantes ei, et quærentes aliquid capere de ore ejus, ut accusarent eum.
54waiting to catch Him in something He might say.
