Luke 6

NEW AMERICAN BIBLE	VULGATA
1 While he was going through a field of grain on a sabbath, his disciples were picking the heads of grain, rubbing them in their hands, and eating them.	1 Factum est autem in sabbato secundo, primo, cum transiret per sata, vellebant discipuli ejus spicas, et manducabant confricantes manibus.
2 Some Pharisees said, "Why are you doing what is unlawful on the sabbath?"	2 Quidam autem pharisæorum, dicebant illis : Quid facitis quod non licet in sabbatis ?
3 Jesus said to them in reply, "Have you not read what David did when he and those (who were) with him were hungry?	3 Et respondens Jesus ad eos, dixit : Nec hoc legistis quod fecit David, cum esurisset ipse, et qui cum illo erant ?
4 (How) he went into the house of God, took the bread of offering, which only the priests could lawfully eat, ate of it, and shared it with his companions."	4 quomodo intravit in domum Dei, et panes propositionis sumpsit, et manducavit, et dedit his qui cum ipso erant : quos non licet manducare nisi tantum sacerdotibus ?
5 Then he said to them, "The Son of Man is lord of the sabbath."	5 Et dicebat illis : Quia dominus est Filius hominis etiam sabbati.
6 On another sabbath he went into the synagogue and taught, and there was a man there whose right hand was withered.	6 Factum est autem in alio sabbato, ut intraret in synagogam, et doceret. Et erat ibi homo, et manus ejus dextra erat arida.
7 The scribes and the Pharisees watched him closely to see if he would cure on the sabbath so that they might discover a reason to accuse him.	7 Observabant autem scribæ et pharisæi si in sabbato curaret, ut invenirent unde accusarent eum.
8 But he realized their intentions and said to the man with the withered hand, "Come up and stand before us." And he rose and stood there.	8 Ipse vero sciebat cogitationes eorum : et ait homini qui habebat manum aridam : Surge, et sta in medium. Et surgens stetit.
9 Then Jesus said to them, "I ask you, is it lawful to do good on the sabbath rather than to do evil, to save life rather than to destroy it?"	9 Ait autem ad illos Jesus : Interrogo vos si licet sabbatis benefacere, an male : animam salvam facere, an perdere ?
10 Looking around at them all, he then said to him, "Stretch out your hand." He did so and his hand was restored.	10 Et circumspectis omnibus dixit homini : Extende manum tuam. Et extendit : et restituta est manus ejus.
11 But they became enraged and discussed together what they might do to Jesus.	11 Ipsi autem repleti sunt insipientia, et colloquebantur ad invicem, quidnam facerent Jesu.
12 In those days he departed to the mountain to pray, and he spent the night in prayer to God.	12 Factum est autem in illis diebus, exiit in montem orare, et erat pernoctans in oratione Dei.
13 When day came, he called his disciples to himself, and from them he chose Twelve, whom he also named apostles:	13 Et cum dies factus esset, vocavit discipulos suos : et elegit duodecim ex ipsis (quos et apostolos nominavit) :
14 Simon, whom he named Peter, and his brother Andrew, James, John, Philip, Bartholomew,	14 Simonem, quem cognominavit Petrum, et Andream fratrem ejus, Jacobum, et Joannem, Philippum, et Bartholomæum,
15 Matthew, Thomas, James the son of Alphaeus, Simon who was called a Zealot,	15 Matthæum, et Thomam, Jacobum Alphæi, et Simonem, qui vocatur Zelotes,
16 and Judas the son of James, and Judas Iscariot, who became a traitor.	16 et Judam Jacobi, et Judam Iscariotem, qui fuit proditor.
17 And he came down with them and stood on a stretch of level ground. A great crowd of his disciples and a large number of the people from all Judea and Jerusalem and the coastal region of Tyre and Sidon	17 Et descendens cum illis, stetit in loco campestri, et turba discipulorum ejus, et multitudo copiosa plebis ab omni Judæa, et Jerusalem, et maritima, et Tyri, et Sidonis,
18 came to hear him and to be healed of their diseases; and even those who were tormented by unclean spirits were cured.	18 qui venerant ut audirent eum, et sanarentur a languoribus suis. Et qui vexabantur a spiritibus immundis, curabantur.
19 Everyone in the crowd sought to touch him because power came forth from him and healed them all.	19 Et omnis turba quærebat eum tangere : quia virtus de illo exibat, et sanabat omnes.
20 And raising his eyes toward his disciples he said: "Blessed are you who are poor, for the kingdom of God is yours.	20 Et ipse elevatis oculis in discipulis suis, dicebat : Beati pauperes, quia vestrum est regnum Dei.
21 Blessed are you who are now hungry, for you will be satisfied. Blessed are you who are now weeping, for you will laugh.	21 Beati qui nunc esuritis, quia saturabimini. Beati qui nunc fletis, quia ridebitis.
22 Blessed are you when people hate you, and when they exclude and insult you, and denounce your name as evil on account of the Son of Man.	22 Beati eritis cum vos oderint homines, et cum separaverint vos, et exprobraverint, et ejicerint nomen vestrum tamquam malum propter Filium hominis.
23 Rejoice and leap for joy on that day! Behold, your reward will be great in heaven. For their ancestors treated the prophets in the same way.	23 Gaudete in illa die, et exsultate : ecce enim merces vestra multa est in cælo : secundum hæc enim faciebant prophetis patres eorum.
24 But woe to you who are rich, for you have received your consolation.	24 Verumtamen væ vobis divitibus, quia habetis consolationem vestram.
25 But woe to you who are filled now, for you will be hungry. Woe to you who laugh now, for you will grieve and weep.	25 Væ vobis, qui saturati estis : quia esurietis. Væ vobis, qui ridetis nunc : quia lugebitis et flebitis.
26 Woe to you when all speak well of you, for their ancestors treated the false prophets in this way.	26 Væ cum benedixerint vobis homines : secundum hæc enim faciebant pseudoprophetis patres eorum.
27 "But to you who hear I say, love your enemies, do good to those who hate you,	27 Sed vobis dico, qui auditis : diligite inimicos vestros, benefacite his qui oderunt vos.
28 bless those who curse you, pray for those who mistreat you.	28 Benedicite maledicentibus vobis, et orate pro calumniantibus vos.
29 To the person who strikes you on one cheek, offer the other one as well, and from the person who takes your cloak, do not withhold even your tunic.	29 Et qui te percutit in maxillam, præbe et alteram. Et ab eo qui aufert tibi vestimentum, etiam tunicam noli prohibere.
30 Give to everyone who asks of you, and from the one who takes what is yours do not demand it back.	30 Omni autem petenti te, tribue : et qui aufert quæ tua sunt, ne repetas.
31 Do to others as you would have them do to you.	31 Et prout vultis ut faciant vobis homines, et vos facite illis similiter.
32 For if you love those who love you, what credit is that to you? Even sinners love those who love them.	32 Et si diligitis eos qui vos diligunt, quæ vobis est gratia ? nam et peccatores diligentes se diligunt.
33 And if you do good to those who do good to you, what credit is that to you? Even sinners do the same.	33 Et si benefeceritis his qui vobis benefaciunt, quæ vobis est gratia ? siquidem et peccatores hoc faciunt.
34 If you lend money to those from whom you expect repayment, what credit (is) that to you? Even sinners lend to sinners, and get back the same amount.	34 Et si mutuum dederitis his a quibus speratis recipere, quæ gratia est vobis ? nam et peccatores peccatoribus fœnerantur, ut recipiant æqualia.
35 But rather, love your enemies and do good to them, and lend expecting nothing back; then your reward will be great and you will be children of the Most High, for he himself is kind to the ungrateful and the wicked.	35 Verumtamen diligite inimicos vestros : benefacite, et mutuum date, nihil inde sperantes : et erit merces vestra multa, et eritis filii Altissimi, quia ipse benignus est super ingratos et malos.
36 Be merciful, just as (also) your Father is merciful.	36 Estote ergo misericordes sicut et Pater vester misericors est.
37 "Stop judging and you will not be judged. Stop condemning and you will not be condemned. Forgive and you will be forgiven.	37 Nolite judicare, et non judicabimini : nolite condemnare, et non condemnabimini. Dimittite, et dimittemini.
38 Give and gifts will be given to you; a good measure, packed together, shaken down, and overflowing, will be poured into your lap. For the measure with which you measure will in return be measured out to you."	38 Date, et dabitur vobis : mensuram bonam, et confertam, et coagitatam, et supereffluentem dabunt in sinum vestrum. Eadem quippe mensura, qua mensi fueritis, remetietur vobis.
39 And he told them a parable, "Can a blind person guide a blind person? Will not both fall into a pit?	39 Dicebat autem illis et similitudinem : Numquid potest cæcus cæcum ducere ? nonne ambo in foveam cadunt ?
40 No disciple is superior to the teacher; but when fully trained, every disciple will be like his teacher.	40 Non est discipulus super magistrum : perfectus autem omnis erit, si sit sicut magister ejus.
41 Why do you notice the splinter in your brother's eye, but do not perceive the wooden beam in your own?	41 Quid autem vides festucam in oculo fratris tui, trabem autem, quæ in oculo tuo est, non consideras ?
42 How can you say to your brother, 'Brother, let me remove that splinter in your eye,' when you do not even notice the wooden beam in your own eye? You hypocrite! Remove the wooden beam from your eye first; then you will see clearly to remove the splinter in your brother's eye.	42 aut quomodo potes dicere fratri tuo : Frater, sine ejiciam festucam de oculo tuo : ipse in oculo tuo trabem non videns ? Hypocrita, ejice primum trabem de oculo tuo : et tunc perspicies ut educas festucam de oculo fratris tui.
43 "A good tree does not bear rotten fruit, nor does a rotten tree bear good fruit.	43 Non est enim arbor bona, quæ facit fructus malos : neque arbor mala, faciens fructum bonum.
44 For every tree is known by its own fruit. For people do not pick figs from thornbushes, nor do they gather grapes from brambles.	44 Unaquæque enim arbor de fructu suo cognoscitur. Neque enim de spinis colligunt ficus : neque de rubo vindemiant uvam.
45 A good person out of the store of goodness in his heart produces good, but an evil person out of a store of evil produces evil; for from the fullness of the heart the mouth speaks.	45 Bonus homo de bono thesauro cordis sui profert bonum : et malus homo de malo thesauro profert malum. Ex abundantia enim cordis os loquitur.
46 "Why do you call me, 'Lord, Lord,' but not do what I command?	46 Quid autem vocatis me Domine, Domine : et non facitis quæ dico ?
47 I will show you what someone is like who comes to me, listens to my words, and acts on them.	47 Omnis qui venit ad me, et audit sermones meos, et facit eos, ostendam vobis cui similis sit :
48 That one is like a person building a house, who dug deeply and laid the foundation on rock; when the flood came, the river burst against that house but could not shake it because it had been well built.	48 similis est homini ædificanti domum, qui fodit in altum, et posuit fundamentum super petram : inundatione autem facta, illisum est flumen domui illi, et non potuit eam movere : fundata enim erat super petram.
49 But the one who listens and does not act is like a person who built a house on the ground without a foundation. When the river burst against it, it collapsed at once and was completely destroyed."	49 Qui autem audit, et non facit, similis est homini ædificanti domum suam super terram sine fundamento : in quam illisus est fluvius, et continuo cecidit : et facta est ruina domus illius magna.
