Vangelo secondo Luca 16

NOVA VULGATA	DOUAI-RHEIMS
1 Dicebat autem et ad disci pulos: “ Homo quidam erat dives, qui habebatvilicum, et hic diffamatus est apud illum quasi dissipasset bona ipsius.	1 And he said also to his disciples: There was a certain rich man who had a steward: and the same was accused unto him, that he had wasted his goods.
2 Etvocavit illum et ait illi: “Quid hoc audio de te? Redde rationem vilicationistuae; iam enim non poteris vilicare”.	2 And he called him, and said to him: How is it that I hear this of thee? give an account of thy stewardship: for now thou canst be steward no longer.
3 Ait autem vilicus intra se: “Quidfaciam, quia dominus meus aufert a me vilicationem? Fodere non valeo, mendicareerubesco.	3 And the steward said within himself: What shall I do, because my lord taketh away from me the stewardship? To dig I am not able; to beg I am ashamed.
4 Scio quid faciam, ut, cum amotus fuero a vilicatione, recipiant mein domos suas”.	4 I know what I will do, that when I shall be removed from the stewardship, they may receive me into their houses.
5 Convocatis itaque singulis debitoribus domini sui, dicebatprimo: “Quantum debes domino meo?”.	5 Therefore calling together every one of his lord's debtors, he said to the first: How much dost thou owe my lord?
6 At ille dixit: “Centum cados olei”.Dixitque illi: “Accipe cautionem tuam et sede cito, scribe quinquaginta”.	6 But he said: An hundred barrels of oil. And he said to him: Take thy bill and sit down quickly, and write fifty.
7 Deinde alii dixit: “Tu vero quantum debes?”. Qui ait: “Centum corostritici”. Ait illi: “Accipe litteras tuas et scribe octoginta”.	7 Then he said to another: And how much dost thou owe? Who said: An hundred quarters of wheat. He said to him: Take thy bill, and write eighty.
8 Etlaudavit dominus vilicum iniquitatis, quia prudenter fecisset, quia filii huiussaeculi prudentiores filiis lucis in generatione sua sunt.	8 And the lord commended the unjust steward, forasmuch as he had done wisely: for the children of this world are wiser in their generation than the children of light.
9 Et ego vobis dico: Facite vobis amicos de mammona iniquitatis, ut, cumdefecerit, recipiant vos in aeterna tabernacula.	9 And I say to you: Make unto you friends of the mammon of iniquity; that when you shall fail, they may receive you into everlasting dwellings.
10 Qui fidelis est in minimo, et in maiori fidelis est; et, qui in modicoiniquus est, et in maiori iniquus est.	10 He that is faithful in that which is least, is faithful also in that which is greater: and he that is unjust in that which is little, is unjust also in that which is greater.
11 Si ergo in iniquo mammona fideles non fuistis, quod verum est, quis credetvobis?	11 If then you have not been faithful in the unjust mammon; who will trust you with that which is the true?
12 Et si in alieno fideles non fuistis, quod vestrum est, quis dabitvobis?	12 And if you have not been faithful in that which is another's; who will give you that which is your own?
13 Nemo servus potest duobus dominis servire: aut enim unum odiet et alterumdiliget, aut uni adhaerebit et alterum contemnet. Non potestis Deo servire etmammonae ”.	13 No servant can serve two masters: for either he will hate the one, and love the other; or he will hold to the one, and despise the other. You cannot serve God and mammon.
14 Audiebant autem omnia haec pharisaei, qui erant avari, et deridebant illum.	14 Now the Pharisees, who were covetous, heard all these things: and they derided him.
15 Et ait illis: “ Vos estis, qui iustificatis vos coram hominibus; Deus autemnovit corda vestra, quia, quod hominibus altum est, abominatio est ante Deum.	15 And he said to them: You are they who justify yourselves before men, but God knoweth your hearts; for that which is high to men, is an abomination before God.
16 Lex et Prophetae usque ad Ioannem; ex tunc regnum Dei evangelizatur, et omnisin illud vim facit.	16 The law and the prophets were until John; from that time the kingdom of God is preached, and every one useth violence towards it.
17 Facilius est autem caelum et terram praeterire, quam de Lege unum apicemcadere.	17 And it is easier for heaven and earth to pass, than one tittle of the law to fall.
18 Omnis, qui dimittit uxorem suam et ducit alteram, moechatur; et, qui dimissama viro ducit, moechatur.	18 Every one that putteth away his wife, and marrieth another, committeth adultery: and he that marrieth her that is put away from her husband, commmitteth adultery.
19 Homo quidam erat dives et induebatur purpura et bysso et epulabatur cotidiesplendide.	19 There was a certain rich man, who was clothed in purple and fine linen; and feasted sumptuously every day.
20 Quidam autem pauper nomine Lazarus iacebat ad ianuam eiusulceribus plenus	20 And there was a certain beggar, named Lazarus, who lay at his gate, full of sores,
21 et cupiens saturari de his, quae cadebant de mensa divitis;sed et canes veniebant et lingebant ulcera eius.	21 Desiring to be filled with the crumbs that fell from the rich man's table, and no one did give him; moreover the dogs came, and licked his sores.
22 Factum est autem utmoreretur pauper et portaretur ab angelis in sinum Abrahae; mortuus est autem etdives et sepultus est.	22 And it came to pass, that the beggar died, and was carried by the angels into Abraham's bosom. And the rich man also died: and he was buried in hell.
23 Et in inferno elevans oculos suos, cum esset intormentis, videbat Abraham a longe et Lazarum in sinu eius.	23 And lifting up his eyes when he was in torments, he saw Abraham afar off, and Lazarus in his bosom:
24 Et ipse clamansdixit: “Pater Abraham, miserere mei et mitte Lazarum, ut intingat extremumdigiti sui in aquam, ut refrigeret linguam meam, quia crucior in hac flamma”.	24 And he cried, and said: Father Abraham, have mercy on me, and send Lazarus, that he may dip the tip of his finger in water, to cool my tongue: for I am tormented in this flame.
25 At dixit Abraham: “Fili, recordare quia recepisti bona tua in vita tua, etLazarus similiter mala; nunc autem hic consolatur, tu vero cruciaris.	25 And Abraham said to him: Son, remember that thou didst receive good things in thy lifetime, and likewise Lazareth evil things, but now he is comforted; and thou art tormented.
26 Et inhis omnibus inter nos et vos chaos magnum firmatum est, ut hi, qui volunt hinctransire ad vos, non possint, neque inde ad nos transmeare”.	26 And besides all this, between us and you, there is fixed a great chaos: so that they who would pass from hence to you, cannot, nor from thence come hither.
27 Et ait: “Rogoergo te, Pater, ut mittas eum in domum patris mei	27 And he said: Then, father, I beseech thee, that thou wouldst send him to my father's house, for I have five brethren,
28 — habeo enim quinquefratres — ut testetur illis, ne et ipsi veniant in locum hunc tormentorum”.	28 That he may testify unto them, lest they also come into this place of torments.
29 Ait autem Abraham: “Habent Moysen et Prophetas; audiant illos”.	29 And Abraham said to him: They have Moses and the prophets; let them hear them.
30 Atille dixit: “Non, pater Abraham, sed si quis ex mortuis ierit ad eos,paenitentiam agent”.	30 But he said: No, father Abraham: but if one went to them from the dead, they will do penance.
31 Ait autem illi: “Si Moysen et Prophetas non audiunt,neque si quis ex mortuis resurrexerit, credent” ”.	31 And he said to him: If they hear not Moses and the prophets, neither will they believe, if one rise again from the dead.
