Clementine Vulgate, 1598
Douay-Rheims Bible, American Edition (1899)
1Et factum est, cum consummasset Jesus sermones istos, migravit a Galilæa, et venit in fines Judææ trans Jordanem,
1And it came to pass when Jesus had ended these words, he departed from Galilee, and came into the coasts of Judea, beyond Jordan.
2et secutæ sunt eum turbæ multæ, et curavit eos ibi.
2And great multitudes followed him: and he healed them there.
3Et accesserunt ad eum pharisæi tentantes eum, et dicentes: Si licet homini dimittere uxorem suam, quacumque ex causa?
3And there came to him the Pharisees tempting him, and saying: Is it lawful for a man to put away his wife for every cause?
4Qui respondens, ait eis: Non legistis, quia qui fecit hominem ab initio, masculum et feminam fecit eos? Et dixit:
4Who answering, said to them: Have ye not read, that he who made man from the beginning, Made them male and female? And he said:
5Propter hoc dimittet homo patrem, et matrem, et adhærebit uxori suæ, et erunt duo in carne una.
5For this cause shall a man leave father and mother, and shall cleave to his wife, and they two shall be in one flesh.
6Itaque jam non sunt duo, sed una caro. Quod ergo Deus conjunxit, homo non separet.
6Therefore now they are not two, but one flesh. What therefore God hath joined together, let no man put asunder.
7Dicunt illi: Quid ergo Moyses mandavit dare libellum repudii, et dimittere?
7They say to him: Why then did Moses command to give a bill of divorce, and to put away?
8Ait illis: Quoniam Moyses ad duritiam cordis vestri permisit vobis dimittere uxores vestras: ab initio autem non fuit sic.
8He saith to them: Because Moses by reason of the hardness of your heart permitted you to put away your wives: but from the beginning it was not so.
9Dico autem vobis, quia quicumque dimiserit uxorem suam, nisi ob fornicationem, et aliam duxerit, mœchatur: et qui dimissam duxerit, mœchatur.
9And I say to you, that whosoever shall put away his wife, except it be for fornication, and shall marry another, committeth adultery: and he that shall marry her that is put away, committeth adultery.
10Dicunt ei discipuli ejus: Si ita est causa hominis cum uxore, non expedit nubere.
10His disciples say unto him: If the case of a man with his wife be so, it is not expedient to marry.
11Qui dixit illis: Non omnes capiunt verbum istud, sed quibus datum est.
11Who said to them: All men take not this word, but they to whom it is given.
12Sunt enim eunuchi, qui de matris utero sic nati sunt: et sunt eunuchi, qui facti sunt ab hominibus: et sunt eunuchi, qui seipsos castraverunt propter regnum cælorum. Qui potest capere capiat.
12For there are eunuchs, who were born so from their mother’s womb: and there are eunuchs, who were made so by men: and there are eunuchs, who have made themselves eunuchs for the kingdom of heaven. He that can take, let him take it.
13Tunc oblati sunt ei parvuli, ut manus eis imponeret, et oraret. Discipuli autem increpabant eos.
13Then were little children presented to him, that he should impose hands upon them and pray. And the disciples rebuked them.
14Jesus vero ait eis: Sinite parvulos, et nolite eos prohibere ad me venire: talium est enim regnum cælorum.
14But Jesus said to them: Suffer the little children, and forbid them not to come to me: for the kingdom of heaven is for such.
15Et cum imposuisset eis manus, abiit inde.
15And when he had imposed hands upon them, he departed from thence.
16Et ecce unus accedens, ait illi: Magister bone, quid boni faciam ut habeam vitam æternam?
16And behold one came and said to him: Good master, what good shall I do that I may have life everlasting?
17Qui dixit ei: Quid me interrogas de bono? Unus est bonus, Deus. Si autem vis ad vitam ingredi, serva mandata.
17Who said to him: Why asketh thou me concerning good? One is good, God. But if thou wilt enter into life, keep the commandments.
18Dicit illi: Quæ? Jesus autem dixit: Non homicidium facies; non adulterabis; non facies furtum; non falsum testimonium dices;
18He said to him: Which? And Jesus said: Thou shalt do no murder, Thou shalt not commit adultery, Thou shalt not steal, Thou shalt not bear false witness.
19honora patrem tuum, et matrem tuam, et diliges proximum tuum sicut teipsum.
19Honour thy father and thy mother: and, Thou shalt love thy neighbor as thyself.
20Dicit illi adolescens: Omnia hæc custodivi a juventute mea: quid adhuc mihi deest?
20The young man saith to him: All these I have kept from my youth, what is yet wanting to me?
21Ait illi Jesus: Si vis perfectus esse, vade, vende quæ habes, et da pauperibus, et habebis thesaurum in cælo: et veni, sequere me.
21Jesus saith to him: If thou wilt be perfect, go sell what thou hast, and give to the poor, and thou shalt have treasure in heaven: and come follow me.
22Cum audisset autem adolescens verbum, abiit tristis: erat enim habens multas possessiones.
22And when the young man had heard this word, he went away sad: for he had great possessions.
23Jesus autem dixit discipulis suis: Amen dico vobis, quia dives difficile intrabit in regnum cælorum.
23Then Jesus said to his disciples: Amen, I say to you, that a rich man shall hardly enter into the kingdom of heaven.
24Et iterum dico vobis: Facilius est camelum per foramen acus transire, quam divitem intrare in regnum cælorum.
24And again I say to you: It is easier for a camel to pass through the eye of a needle, than for a rich man to enter into the kingdom of heaven.
25Auditis autem his, discipuli mirabantur valde, dicentes: Quis ergo poterit salvus esse?
25And when they had heard this, the disciples wondered very much, saying: Who then can be saved?
26Aspiciens autem Jesus, dixit illis: Apud homines hoc impossibile est: apud Deum autem omnia possibilia sunt.
26And Jesus beholding, said to them: With men this is impossible: but with God all things are possible.
27Tunc respondens Petrus, dixit ei: Ecce nos reliquimus omnia, et secuti sumus te: quid ergo erit nobis?
27Then Peter answering, said to him: Behold we have left all things, and have followed thee: what therefore shall we have?
28Jesus autem dixit illis: Amen dico vobis, quod vos, qui secuti estis me, in regeneratione cum sederit Filius hominis in sede majestatis suæ, sedebitis et vos super sedes duodecim, judicantes duodecim tribus Israël.
28And Jesus said to them: Amen, I say to you, that you, who have followed me, in the regeneration, when the Son of man shall sit on the seat of his majesty, you also shall sit on twelve seats judging the twelve tribes of Israel.
29Et omnis qui reliquerit domum, vel fratres, aut sorores, aut patrem, aut matrem, aut uxorem, aut filios, aut agros propter nomen meum, centuplum accipiet, et vitam æternam possidebit.
29And every one that hath left house, or brethren, or sisters, or father, or mother, or wife, or children, or lands for my name’s sake, shall receive an hundredfold, and shall possess life everlasting.
30Multi autem erunt primi novissimi, et novissimi primi.
30And many that are first, shall be last: and the last shall be first.
