| 1 | And he spoke also a parable to them, that we ought always to pray, and not to faint, | Dicebat autem et parabolam ad illos, quoniam oportet semper orare et non deficere, |
| 2 | Saying: There was a judge in a certain city, who feared not God, nor regarded man. | dicens: Iudex quidam erat in quadam civitate, qui Deum non timebat, et hominem non reverebatur. |
| 3 | And there was a certain widow in that city, and she came to him, saying: Avenge me of my adversary. | Vidua autem quaedam erat in civitate illa, et veniebat ad eum, dicens: Vindica me de adversario meo. |
| 4 | And he would not for a long time. But afterwards he said within himself: Although I fear not God, nor regard man, | Et nolebat per multum tempus. Post haec autem dixit intra se: Etsi Deum non timeo, nec hominem revereor: |
| 5 | Yet because this widow is troublesome to me, I will avenge her, lest continually coming she weary me. | tamen quia molesta est mihi haec vidua, vindicabo illam, ne in novissimo veniens sugillet me. |
| 6 | And the Lord said: Hear what the unjust judge saith. | Ait autem Dominus: Audite quid iudex iniquitatis dicit: |
| 7 | And will not God revenge his elect who cry to him day and night: and will he have patience in their regard? | Deus autem non faciet vindictam electorum suorum clamantium ad se die ac nocte, et patientiam habebit in illis? |
| 8 | I say to you, that he will quickly revenge them. But yet the Son of man, when he cometh, shall he find, think you, faith on earth? | Dico vobis quia cito faciet vindictam illorum. Verumtamen Filius hominis veniens, putas, inveniet fidem in terra? |
| 9 | And to some who trusted in themselves as just, and despised others, he spoke also this parable: | Dixit autem et ad quosdam qui in se confidebant tamquam iusti, et aspernabantur ceteros, parabolam istam: |
| 10 | Two men went up into the temple to pray: the one a Pharisee, and the other a publican. | Duo homines ascenderunt in templum ut orarent: unus pharisaeus et alter publicanus. |
| 11 | The Pharisee standing, prayed thus with himself: O God, I give thee thanks that I am not as the rest of men, extortioners, unjust, adulterers, as also is this publican. | Pharisaeus stans, haec apud se orabat: Deus, gratias ago tibi, quia non sum sicut ceteri hominum: raptores, iniusti, adulteri, velut etiam hic publicanus: |
| 12 | I fast twice in a week: I give tithes of all that I possess. | ieiuno bis in sabbato, decimas do omnium quae possideo. |
| 13 | And the publican, standing afar off, would not so much as lift up his eyes towards heaven; but struck his breast, saying: O god, be merciful to me a sinner. | Et publicanus a longe stans, nolebat nec oculos ad caelum levare: sed percutiebat pectus suum, dicens: Deus propitius esto mihi peccatori. |
| 14 | I say to you, this man went down into his house justified rather that the other: because every one that exalteth himself, shall be humbled: and he that humbleth himself, shall be exalted. | Dico vobis, descendit hic iustificatus in domum suam ab illo: quia omnis qui se exaltat, humiliabitur, et qui se humiliat, exaltabitur. |
| 15 | And they brought unto him also infants, that he might touch them. Which when the disciples saw, they rebuked them. | Afferebant autem ad illum et infantes, ut eos tangeret. Quod cum viderent discipuli, increpabant illos. |
| 16 | But Jesus, calling them together, said: Suffer children to come to me, and forbid them not: for of such is the kingdom of God. | Iesus autem convocans illos, dixit: Sinite pueros venire ad me, et nolite vetare eos: talium est enim regnum Dei. |
| 17 | Amen, I say to you: Whosoever shall not receive the kingdom of God as a child, shall not enter into it. | Amen dico vobis, quicumque non acceperit regnum Dei sicut puer, non intrabit in illud. |
| 18 | And a certain ruler asked him, saying: Good master, what shall I do to possess everlasting life? | Et interrogavit eum quidam princeps, dicens: Magister bone, quid faciens vitam aeternam possidebo? |
| 19 | And Jesus said to him: Why dost thou call me good? None is good but God alone. | Dixit autem ei Iesus: Quid me dicis bonum? nemo bonus nisi solus Deus. |
| 20 | Thou knowest the commandments: Thou shalt not kill: Thou shalt not commit adultery: Thou shalt not steal: Thou shalt not bear false witness: Honour thy father and mother. | Mandata nosti: non occides; non moechaberis; non furtum facies; non falsum testimonium dices; honora patrem tuum et matrem. |
| 21 | Who said: All these things have I kept from my youth. | Qui ait: Haec omnia custodivi a iuventute mea. |
| 22 | Which when Jesus had heard, he said to him: Yet one thing is wanting to thee: sell all whatever thou hast, and give to the poor, and thou shalt have treasure in heaven: and come, follow me. | Quo audito, Iesus ait ei: Adhuc unum tibi deest: omnia quaecumque habes vende, et da pauperibus, et habebis thesaurum in caelo: et veni, sequere me. |
| 23 | He having heard these things, became sorrowful; for he was very rich. | His ille auditis, contristatus est: quia dives erat valde. |
| 24 | And Jesus seeing him become sorrowful, said: How hardly shall they that have riches enter into the kingdom of God. | Videns autem Iesus illum tristem factum, dixit: Quam difficile, qui pecunias habent, in regnum Dei intrabunt! |
| 25 | For 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 God. | facilius est enim camelum per foramen acus transire quam divitem intrare in regnum Dei. |
| 26 | And they that heard it, said: Who then can be saved? | Et dixerunt qui audiebant: Et quis potest salvus fieri? |
| 27 | He said to them: The things that are impossible with men, are possible with God. | Ait illis: Quae impossibilia sunt apud homines, possibilia sunt apud Deum. |
| 28 | Then Peter said: Behold, we have left all things, and have followed thee. | Ait autem Petrus: Ecce nos dimisimus omnia et secuti sumus te. |
| 29 | Who said to them: Amen, I say to you, there is no man that hath left house, or parents, or brethren, or wife, or children, for the kingdom of God’s sake, | Qui dixit eis: Amen dico vobis, nemo est qui reliquit domum, aut parentes, aut fratres, aut uxorem, aut filios propter regnum Dei, |
| 30 | Who shall not receive much more in this present time, and in the world to come life everlasting. | et non recipiat multo plura in hoc tempore, et in saeculo venturo vitam aeternam. |
| 31 | Then Jesus took unto him the twelve, and said to them: Behold, we go up to Jerusalem, and all things shall be accomplished which were written by the prophets concerning the Son of man. | Assumpsit autem Iesus duodecim, et ait illis: Ecce ascendimus Ierosolymam, et consummabuntur omnia quae scripta sunt per prophetas de Filio hominis: |
| 32 | For he shall be delivered to the Gentiles, and shall be mocked, and scourged, and spit upon: | tradetur enim gentibus, et illudetur, et flagellabitur, et conspuetur: |
| 33 | And after they have scourged him, they will put him to death; and the third day he shall rise again. | et postquam flagellaverint, occident eum, et tertia die resurget. |
| 34 | And they understood none of these things, and this word was hid from them, and they understood not the things that were said. | Et ipsi nihil horum intellexerunt, et erat verbum istud absconditum ab eis, et non intelligebant quae dicebantur. |
| 35 | Now it came to pass, when he drew nigh to Jericho, that a certain blind man sat by the way side, begging. | Factum est autem, cum appropinquaret Iericho, caecus quidam sedebat secus viam, mendicans. |
| 36 | And when he heard the multitude passing by, he asked what this meant. | Et cum audiret turbam praetereuntem, interrogabat quid hoc esset. |
| 37 | And they told him, that Jesus of Nazareth was passing by. | Dixerunt autem ei quod Iesus Nazarenus transiret. |
| 38 | And he cried out, saying: Jesus, son of David, have mercy on me. | Et clamavit, dicens: Iesu, fili David, miserere mei. |
| 39 | And they that went before, rebuked him, that he should hold his peace: but he cried out much more: Son of David, have mercy on me. | Et qui praeibant, increpabant eum ut taceret. Ipse vero multo magis clamabat: Fili David, miserere mei. |
| 40 | And Jesus standing, commanded him to be brought unto him. And when he was come near, he asked him, | Stans autem Iesus iussit illum adduci ad se. Et cum appropinquasset, interrogavit illum, |
| 41 | Saying: What wilt thou that I do to thee? But he said: Lord, that I may see. | dicens: Quid tibi vis faciam? At ille dixit: Domine, ut videam. |
| 42 | And Jesus said to him: Receive thy sight: thy faith hath made thee whole. | Et Iesus dixit illi: Respice, fides tua te salvum fecit. |
| 43 | And immediately he saw, and followed him, glorifying God. And all the people, when they saw it, gave praise to God. | Et confestim vidit, et sequebatur illum magnificans Deum. Et omnis plebs ut vidit, dedit laudem Deo. |
