Clementine Vulgate, 1598
King James Version with Apocrypha
1Dicebat autem et parabolam ad illos, quoniam oportet semper orare et non deficere,
1And he spake a parable unto them to this end , that men ought always to pray, and not to faint;
2dicens: Judex quidam erat in quadam civitate, qui Deum non timebat, et hominem non reverebatur.
2Saying, There was in a city a judge, which feared not God, neither regarded man:
3Vidua autem quædam erat in civitate illa, et veniebat ad eum, dicens: Vindica me de adversario meo.
3And there was a widow in that city; and she came unto him, saying, Avenge me of mine adversary.
4Et nolebat per multum tempus. Post hæc autem dixit intra se: Etsi Deum non timeo, nec hominem revereor:
4And he would not for a while: but afterward he said within himself, Though I fear not God, nor regard man;
5tamen quia molesta est mihi hæc vidua, vindicabo illam, ne in novissimo veniens sugillet me.
5Yet because this widow troubleth me, I will avenge her, lest by her continual coming she weary me.
6Ait autem Dominus: Audite quid judex iniquitatis dicit:
6And the Lord said, Hear what the unjust judge saith.
7Deus autem non faciet vindictam electorum suorum clamantium ad se die ac nocte, et patientiam habebit in illis?
7And shall not God avenge his own elect, which cry day and night unto him, though he bear long with them?
8Dico vobis quia cito faciet vindictam illorum. Verumtamen Filius hominis veniens, putas, inveniet fidem in terra?
8I tell you that he will avenge them speedily. Nevertheless when the Son of man cometh, shall he find faith on the earth?
9Dixit autem et ad quosdam qui in se confidebant tamquam justi, et aspernabantur ceteros, parabolam istam:
9And he spake this parable unto certain which trusted in themselves that they were righteous, and despised others:
10Duo homines ascenderunt in templum ut orarent: unus pharisæus et alter publicanus.
10Two men went up into the temple to pray; the one a Pharisee, and the other a publican.
11Pharisæus stans, hæc apud se orabat: Deus, gratias ago tibi, quia non sum sicut ceteri hominum: raptores, injusti, adulteri, velut etiam hic publicanus:
11The Pharisee stood and prayed thus with himself, God, I thank thee, that I am not as other men are , extortioners, unjust, adulterers, or even as this publican.
12jejuno bis in sabbato, decimas do omnium quæ possideo.
12I fast twice in the week, I give tithes of all that I possess.
13Et publicanus a longe stans, nolebat nec oculos ad cælum levare: sed percutiebat pectus suum, dicens: Deus propitius esto mihi peccatori.
13And the publican, standing afar off, would not lift up so much as his eyes unto heaven, but smote upon his breast, saying, God be merciful to me a sinner.
14Dico vobis, descendit hic justificatus in domum suam ab illo: quia omnis qui se exaltat, humiliabitur, et qui se humiliat, exaltabitur.
14I tell you, this man went down to his house justified rather than the other: for every one that exalteth himself shall be abased; and he that humbleth himself shall be exalted.
15Afferebant autem ad illum et infantes, ut eos tangeret. Quod cum viderent discipuli, increpabant illos.
15And they brought unto him also infants, that he would touch them: but when his disciples saw it , they rebuked them.
16Jesus autem convocans illos, dixit: Sinite pueros venire ad me, et nolite vetare eos: talium est enim regnum Dei.
16But Jesus called them unto him , and said, Suffer little children to come unto me, and forbid them not: for of such is the kingdom of God.
17Amen dico vobis, quicumque non acceperit regnum Dei sicut puer, non intrabit in illud.
17Verily I say unto you, Whosoever shall not receive the kingdom of God as a little child shall in no wise enter therein.
18Et interrogavit eum quidam princeps, dicens: Magister bone, quid faciens vitam æternam possidebo?
18And a certain ruler asked him, saying, Good Master, what shall I do to inherit eternal life?
19Dixit autem ei Jesus: Quid me dicis bonum? nemo bonus nisi solus Deus.
19And Jesus said unto him, Why callest thou me good? none is good, save one, that is , God.
20Mandata nosti: non occides; non mœchaberis; non furtum facies; non falsum testimonium dices; honora patrem tuum et matrem.
20Thou knowest the commandments, Do not commit adultery, Do not kill, Do not steal, Do not bear false witness, Honour thy father and thy mother.
21Qui ait: Hæc omnia custodivi a juventute mea.
21And he said, All these have I kept from my youth up.
22Quo audito, Jesus ait ei: Adhuc unum tibi deest: omnia quæcumque habes vende, et da pauperibus, et habebis thesaurum in cælo: et veni, sequere me.
22Now when Jesus heard these things, he said unto him, Yet lackest thou one thing: sell all that thou hast, and distribute unto the poor, and thou shalt have treasure in heaven: and come, follow me.
23His ille auditis, contristatus est: quia dives erat valde.
23And when he heard this, he was very sorrowful: for he was very rich.
24Videns autem Jesus illum tristem factum, dixit: Quam difficile, qui pecunias habent, in regnum Dei intrabunt !
24And when Jesus saw that he was very sorrowful, he said, How hardly shall they that have riches enter into the kingdom of God!
25facilius est enim camelum per foramen acus transire quam divitem intrare in regnum Dei.
25For it is easier for a camel to go through a needle’s eye, than for a rich man to enter into the kingdom of God.
26Et dixerunt qui audiebant: Et quis potest salvus fieri?
26And they that heard it said, Who then can be saved?
27Ait illis: Quæ impossibilia sunt apud homines, possibilia sunt apud Deum.
27And he said, The things which are impossible with men are possible with God.
28Ait autem Petrus: Ecce nos dimisimus omnia et secuti sumus te.
28Then Peter said, Lo, we have left all, and followed thee.
29Qui dixit eis: Amen dico vobis, nemo est qui reliquit domum, aut parentes, aut fratres, aut uxorem, aut filios propter regnum Dei,
29And he said unto them, Verily I say unto you, There is no man that hath left house, or parents, or brethren, or wife, or children, for the kingdom of God’s sake,
30et non recipiat multo plura in hoc tempore, et in sæculo venturo vitam æternam.
30Who shall not receive manifold more in this present time, and in the world to come life everlasting.
31Assumpsit autem Jesus duodecim, et ait illis: Ecce ascendimus Jerosolymam, et consummabuntur omnia quæ scripta sunt per prophetas de Filio hominis:
31¶ Then he took unto him the twelve, and said unto them, Behold, we go up to Jerusalem, and all things that are written by the prophets concerning the Son of man shall be accomplished.
32tradetur enim gentibus, et illudetur, et flagellabitur, et conspuetur:
32For he shall be delivered unto the Gentiles, and shall be mocked, and spitefully entreated, and spitted on:
33et postquam flagellaverint, occident eum, et tertia die resurget.
33And they shall scourge him , and put him to death: and the third day he shall rise again.
34Et ipsi nihil horum intellexerunt, et erat verbum istud absconditum ab eis, et non intelligebant quæ dicebantur.
34And they understood none of these things: and this saying was hid from them, neither knew they the things which were spoken.
35Factum est autem, cum appropinquaret Jericho, cæcus quidam sedebat secus viam, mendicans.
35¶ And it came to pass, that as he was come nigh unto Jericho, a certain blind man sat by the way side begging:
36Et cum audiret turbam prætereuntem, interrogabat quid hoc esset.
36And hearing the multitude pass by, he asked what it meant.
37Dixerunt autem ei quod Jesus Nazarenus transiret.
37And they told him, that Jesus of Nazareth passeth by.
38Et clamavit, dicens: Jesu, fili David, miserere mei.
38And he cried, saying, Jesus, thou Son of David, have mercy on me.
39Et qui præibant, increpabant eum ut taceret. Ipse vero multo magis clamabat: Fili David, miserere mei.
39And they which went before rebuked him, that he should hold his peace: but he cried so much the more, Thou Son of David, have mercy on me.
40Stans autem Jesus jussit illum adduci ad se. Et cum appropinquasset, interrogavit illum,
40And Jesus stood, and commanded him to be brought unto him: and when he was come near, he asked him,
41dicens: Quid tibi vis faciam? At ille dixit: Domine, ut videam.
41Saying, What wilt thou that I shall do unto thee? And he said, Lord, that I may receive my sight.
42Et Jesus dixit illi: Respice, fides tua te salvum fecit.
42And Jesus said unto him, Receive thy sight: thy faith hath saved thee.
43Et confestim vidit, et sequebatur illum magnificans Deum. Et omnis plebs ut vidit, dedit laudem Deo.
43And immediately he received his sight, and followed him, glorifying God: and all the people, when they saw it , gave praise unto God.
