|
|
| 7 But also the hairs of the head of you all have been numbered. Not therefore fear you; many sparrows you are better.
|
|
| 8 I say and to you: All whoever may confess to me in presence of the men, also the son of the man will confess in him in presence of the messengers of the God.
|
|

|
|

|
| 13 Said and one to him out of the crowd: O teacher, speak to the brother of me to divide with me the inheritance. |
|
| 14 He and said to him: O man, who me appointed a judge or a divider over you?
|
|
| 15 He said and to them: See you and beware you of the covetousness; because not in the to abound any one the life of him is out of the possessions of him.
|
|
| 16 He spoke and a parable to them, saying: A man certain rich yielded plentifully the farm.
|
|
| 17 And he reasoned in himself, saying: What shall i do? because not I have where I will gather the fruits of me.
|
|
| 18 And he said: This will do; I will pull down of me the barns, and greater I will build; and I will collect there all the products of me, and the fruits of me;
|
|
| 19 and I will say to the soul of me: Soul, thou hast many good things being laid up for years many; rest thou, eat, drink, be glad.
|
|
| 20 Said but to him the God: O unwise, this the night the life of thee they require from thee; what and thou hast prepared, for whom shall be?
|
|
| 21 Thus he laying up treasure for himself, and not for God being rich.
|
|
| |
|
| 22 He said and to the disciples of himself: Through this to you I say, not be you anxious for the life of you, what you may eat; nor for the body, what you may put on.
|
|
| 23 The life greater it is of the food; and the body of the clothing.
|
|
| 24 Observe you the ravens, that not they sow, nor reap; for whom not is a store-house, nor a barn; and the God feeds them. How much more you are valuable of the birds?
|
|
| 25 Which and of you being anxious is able to add to the age of himself span one?
|
|
| 26 If then not even least you are able why about the remaining ones are you anxious?
|
|
| 27 Observe you the lilies, how it grows; not it labors, nor it spins. I say but to you, not even Solomon in all the glory of himself was clothed like one of these.
|
|
| 28 If and the grass in the field, to-day existing and to-morrow into an oven is being cast, the God so clothes, how much more you, O you of weak faith?
|
|
| 29 And you not seek, what you may eat or what you may drink; and not be you in anxiety.
|
|
| 30 These for all the nations of the world seeks; of you and the Father knows, that you have need of these.
|
|
| 31 But seek you the kingdom of the God, and these all shall be superadded to you.
|
|
| 32 Not fear, the little flock; for it has pleased the Father of you to give to you the kingdom.
|
|
| 33 Sell you the possessions of you, and give you alms. Make for yourselves bags not growing old, a treasure exhaustless in the heavens, where a thief not approaches, nor moth destroys.
|
|
| 34 Where for is the treasure of you, there also the heart of you will be.
|
|
| 35 Let be of you the loins having been girded, and the lamps burning;
|
Loins girded – Ready for battle. "Having your loins girt about with truth" Eph. 6:14
Lights burning – Let your light shine. Matt. 5:16 |
| 36 and you like to men looking for the lord of themselves, when he will return from the marriage feasts; that having come and having knocked, immediately it may be opened to him.
|
You – The little flock (vs 32).
Men that wait for their Lord – Watching intently for the return of their master.
Return from the wedding – That is when the servants should be most attentive, when their master brings home his bride. We are to be "like unto" men who are that attentive.
When he cometh and knocketh – These do not see him coming (even though being very attentive) but they do quickly hear the knock at the door.
They may open unto him immediately – As soon as they hear the knock. This they (the saints) do because they are in the watching attitude. This corresponds to Rev. 3:20. |
| 37 Blessed the salves those, whom having come the lord shall find watching; indeed i say to you, that he will grid himself, and will make to recline them, and going forth he will minister to them.
|
Blessed are those servants – "Blessed is he that waiteth, and cometh to the thousand three hundred and five and thirty days." Dan. 12:12
The Lord – Jesus.
Shall find watching – See Hab. 2:1-3.
He shall gird himself – Throughout the bible the girding of one's self is always associated with an outpouring of energy or effort. It was usually done for a battle or (as in the case of the Passover) for a journey. Here we have a Divine Being (our returned Lord) thus described! This is a major event.
Make them to sit down to meat – "In due season." This is the feast the Lord's people are privileged to share in at the time of His second advent. It should be apparent that this "meat" is not just a privilege but that it is necessary for our spiritual survival.
Will come forth and serve them – Note that it is Jesus Himself who is serving this feast! |
| 38 And if he may come in the second watch, and in the third watch they come, and may find thus; blessed are the slaves those.
|
|
| 39 This and know you, that, if had known the householder, in what hour the thief comes, he would watch, and not would allow to dig through the house of himself.
|
|
| 40 And you therefore be prepared; because, in the hour not you think, the son of the man comes.
|

|
| 41 Said and to him the Peter: O lord, to us the parable this thou sayest, or also to all? |
|
| 42 Said and the Lord: Who then is the faithful steward, the wise, whom will appoint the lord over the domestics of himself the to give in season the measure of food?
|
|
| 43 Blessed the slave that, whom coming the lord of him will find doing thus.
|
|
| 44 Truly I say to you, that over all to the belonging of himself he will appoint him.
|
|
| 45 If but should say the slave that in the heart of himself: Delays the lord of me to come; and shall begin to strike the servants and maidens, to eat and also to drink and to be drunken;
|
|
| 46 will come the lord the slave that in a day, to which not he looks, an in an hour which not he knows; and shall cut a sunder him, and the part of him with the unbelievers will place.
|
|
| 47 That and the slave who having known the will of the lord of himself, and not having prepared, neither having done according to the will of him shall be beaten many;
|
|
| 48 he but not having known, having done and deserving of stripes shall be beaten few. To all and to whom is given much, much will be required from him; and to whom they have entrusted much, more they will ask him.

| 49 Fire i came to throw into the earth; and what do I wish, if already it were kindled.
|
|
| 50 A dipping and i have to be dipped; and how I am pressed, till may be finished.
|
|
| 51 Do you think, that peace I came to give in the earth? No, I say to you, but rather division.
|
|
| 52 Shall be for from the now five in a house one having been divided, three against two, and two against three.
|
|
| 53 Will be divided a father against a son, and a son against a father; a mother against a daughter, and a daughter against a mother; a mother-in-law against the daughter-in-law of herself, and a daughter-in-law against the mother-in-law of herself.

| 54 He said and also to the crowd: When you see the cloud rising from west, immediately you say: A shower comes; and it happens so.
|
|
| 55 And when south wind is blowing, you say: That burning heat shall be; and it happens.
|
|
| 56 O hypocrites, the face of the earth and of the heaven you know to discern; the but season this how not do you discern?
|
|
| 57 Why and even of yourselves not judge you the right?
|
|
| 58 When for thou goest with the opponent of thee to a ruler, in the way give thou labor to be set free from him; lest he may drag thee to the judge, and the judge thee may deliver to the officer, and the officer thee may cast into prison.
|
|
| 59 I say to thee, not not thou mayest come out thence, till even the last lepton thou hast paid.
