Philippians 2: Douay-Rheims, Vulgata Clementina and Greek text (Patriarchal edition, 1904)
Douay-RheimsVulgata ClementinaGreek text (Patriarchal edition, 1904)
1If there be therefore any consolation in Christ, if any comfort of charity, if any society of the spirit, if any bowels of commiseration:Si qua ergo consolatio in Christo, si quod solatium caritatis, si qua societas spiritus, si qua viscera miserationis:Εἴ τις οὖν παράκλησις ἐν Χριστῷ, εἴ τι παραμύθιον ἀγάπης, εἴ τις κοινωνία Πνεύματος, εἴ τις σπλάγχνα καὶ οἰκτιρμοί,
2Fulfill ye my joy, that you may be of one mind, having the same charity, being of one accord, agreeing in sentiment.implete gaudium meum ut idem sapiatis, eamdem caritatem habentes, unanimes, idipsum sentientes,πληρώσατέ μου τὴν χαράν, ἵνα τὸ αὐτὸ φρονῆτε, τὴν αὐτὴν ἀγάπην ἔχοντες, σύμψυχοι, τὸ ἓν φρονοῦντες,
3Let nothing be done through contention, neither by vain glory: but in humility, let each esteem others better than themselves:nihil per contentionem, neque per inanem gloriam: sed in humilitate superiores sibi invicem arbitrantes,μηδὲν κατὰ ἐριθείαν ἢ κενοδοξίαν, ἀλλὰ τῇ ταπεινοφροσύνῃ ἀλλήλους ἡγούμενοι ὑπερέχοντας ἑαυτῶν.
4Each one not considering the things that are his own, but those that are other men’s.non quae sua sunt singuli considerantes, sed ea quae aliorum.μὴ τὰ ἑαυτῶν ἕκαστος σκοπεῖτε, ἀλλὰ καὶ τὰ ἑτέρων ἕκαστος.
5For let this mind be in you, which was also in Christ Jesus:Hoc enim sentite in vobis, quod et in Christo Iesu:Τοῦτο γὰρ φρονείσθω ἐν ὑμῖν ὃ καὶ ἐν Χριστῷ Ἰησοῦ,
6Who being in the form of God, thought it not robbery to be equal with God:qui cum in forma Dei esset, non rapinam arbitratus est esse se aequalem Deo:ὃς ἐν μορφῇ Θεοῦ ὑπάρχων οὐχ ἁρπαγμὸν ἡγήσατο τὸ εἶναι ἴσα Θεῷ,
7But emptied himself, taking the form of a servant, being made in the likeness of men, and in habit found as a man.sed semetipsum exinanivit, formam servi accipiens, in similitudinem hominum factus, et habitu inventus ut homo.ἀλλ᾽ ἑαυτὸν ἐκένωσε μορφὴν δούλου λαβών, ἐν ὁμοιώματι ἀνθρώπων γενόμενος,
8He humbled himself, becoming obedient unto death, even to the death of the cross.Humiliavit semetipsum factus obediens usque ad mortem, mortem autem crucis.καὶ σχήματι εὑρεθεὶς ὡς ἄνθρωπος ἐταπείνωσεν ἑαυτὸν γενόμενος ὑπήκοος μέχρι θανάτου, θανάτου δὲ σταυροῦ.
9For which cause God also hath exalted him, and hath given him a name which is above all names:Propter quod et Deus exaltavit illum, et donavit illi nomen, quod est super omne nomen:Διὸ καὶ ὁ Θεὸς αὐτὸν ὑπερύψωσε καὶ ἐχαρίσατο αὐτῷ ὄνομα τὸ ὑπὲρ πᾶν ὄνομα,
10That in the name of Jesus every knee should bow, of those that are in heaven, on earth, and under the earth:ut in nomine Iesu omne genu flectatur caelestium, terrestrium et infernorum,ἵνα ἐν τῷ ὀνόματι Ἰησοῦ πᾶν γόνυ κάμψῃ ἐπουρανίων καὶ ἐπιγείων καὶ καταχθονίων,
11And that every tongue should confess that the Lord Jesus Christ is in the glory of God the Father.et omnis lingua confiteatur, quia Dominus Iesus Christus in gloria est Dei Patris.καὶ πᾶσα γλῶσσα ἐξομολογήσηται ὅτι Κύριος Ἰησοῦς Χριστὸς εἰς δόξαν Θεοῦ πατρός.
12Wherefore, my dearly beloved, (as you have always obeyed, not as in my presence only, but much more now in my absence,) with fear and trembling work out your salvation.Itaque carissimi mei (sicut semper obedistis), non ut in praesentia mei tantum, sed multo magis nunc in absentia mea, cum metu et tremore vestram salutem operamini.Ὥστε, ἀγαπητοί μου, καθὼς πάντοτε ὑπηκούσατε, μὴ ὡς ἐν τῇ παρουσίᾳ μου μόνον, ἀλλὰ νῦν πολλῷ μᾶλλον ἐν τῇ ἀπουσίᾳ μου, μετὰ φόβου καὶ τρόμου τὴν ἑαυτῶν σωτηρίαν κατεργάζεσθε·
13For it is God who worketh in you, both to will and to accomplish, according to his good will.Deus est enim, qui operatur in vobis et velle, et perficere pro bona voluntate.ὁ Θεὸς γάρ ἐστιν ὁ ἐνεργῶν ἐν ὑμῖν καὶ τὸ θέλειν καὶ τὸ ἐνεργεῖν ὑπὲρ τῆς εὐδοκίας.
14And do ye all things without murmurings and hesitations;Omnia autem facite sine murmurationibus et haesitationibus:πάντα ποιεῖτε χωρὶς γογγυσμῶν καὶ διαλογισμῶν,
15That you may be blameless, and sincere children of God, without reproof, in the midst of a crooked and perverse generation; among whom you shine as lights in the world.ut sitis sine querela, et simplices filii Dei, sine reprehensione in medio nationis pravae et perversae: inter quos lucetis sicut luminaria in mundo,ἵνα γένησθε ἄμεμπτοι καὶ ἀκέραιοι, τέκνα Θεοῦ ἀμώμητα ἐν μέσῳ γενεᾶς σκολιᾶς καὶ διεστραμμένης, ἐν οἷς φαίνεσθε ὡς φωστῆρες ἐν κόσμῳ,
16Holding forth the word of life to my glory in the day of Christ, because I have not run in vain, nor laboured in vain.verbum vitae continentes ad gloriam meam in die Christi, quia non in vacuum cucurri, neque in vacuum laboravi.λόγον ζωῆς ἐπέχοντες, εἰς καύχημα ἐμοὶ εἰς ἡμέραν Χριστοῦ, ὅτι οὐκ εἰς κενὸν ἔδραμον οὐδὲ εἰς κενὸν ἐκοπίασα.
17Yea, and if I be made a victim upon the sacrifice and service of your faith, I rejoice, and congratulate with you all.Sed et si immolor supra sacrificium, et obsequium fidei vestrae, gaudeo, et congratulor omnibus vobis.Ἀλλ᾽ εἰ καὶ σπένδομαι ἐπὶ τῇ θυσίᾳ καὶ λειτουργίᾳ τῆς πίστεως ὑμῶν, χαίρω καὶ συγχαίρω πᾶσιν ὑμῖν·
18And for the selfsame thing do you also rejoice, and congratulate with me.Idipsum autem et vos gaudete, et congratulamini mihi.τὸ δ᾽ αὐτὸ καὶ ὑμεῖς χαίρετε καὶ συγχαίρετέ μοι.
19And I hope in the Lord Jesus to send Timothy unto you shortly, that I also may be of good comfort, when I know the things concerning you.Spero autem in Domino Iesu, Timotheum me cito mittere ad vos: ut et ego bono animo sim, cognitis quae circa vos sunt.Ἐλπίζω δὲ ἐν Κυρίῳ Ἰησοῦ Τιμόθεον ταχέως πέμψαι ὑμῖν, ἵνα κἀγὼ εὐψυχῶ γνοὺς τὰ περὶ ὑμῶν·
20For I have no man so of the same mind, who with sincere affection is solicitous for you.Neminem enim habeo tam unanimem, qui sincera affectione pro vobis sollicitus sit.οὐδένα γὰρ ἔχω ἰσόψυχον, ὅστις γνησίως τὰ περὶ ὑμῶν μεριμνήσει·
21For all seek the things that are their own; not the things that are Jesus Christ’s.Omnes enim quae sua sunt quaerunt, non quae sunt Iesu Christi.οἱ πάντες γὰρ τὰ ἑαυτῶν ζητοῦσιν, οὐ τὰ Χριστοῦ Ἰησοῦ.
22Now know ye the proof of him, that as a son with the father, so hath he served with me in the gospel.Experimentum autem eius cognoscite, quia sicut patri filius, mecum servivit in Evangelio.τὴν δὲ δοκιμὴν αὐτοῦ γινώσκετε, ὅτι ὡς πατρὶ τέκνον σὺν ἐμοὶ ἐδούλευσεν εἰς τὸ εὐαγγέλιον.
23Him therefore I hope to send unto you immediately, so soon as I shall see how it will go with me.Hunc igitur spero me mittere ad vos, mox ut videro quae circa me sunt.τοῦτον μὲν οὖν ἐλπίζω πέμψαι ὡς ἂν ἀπίδω τὰ περὶ ἐμὲ ἐξαυτῆς·
24And I trust in the Lord, that I myself also shall come to you shortly.Confido autem in Domino quoniam et ipse veniam ad vos cito.πέποιθα δὲ ἐν Κυρίῳ ὅτι καὶ αὐτὸς ταχέως ἐλεύσομαι.
25But I have thought it necessary to send to you Epaphroditus, my brother and fellow labourer, and fellow soldier, but your apostle, and he that hath ministered to my wants.Necessarium autem existimavi Epaphroditum fratrem, et cooperatorem, et commilitonem meum, vestrum autem apostolum, et ministrum necessitatis meae, mittere ad vos:Ἀναγκαῖον δὲ ἡγησάμην Ἐπαφρόδιτον τὸν ἀδελφὸν καὶ συνεργὸν καὶ συστρατιώτην μου, ὑμῶν δὲ ἀπόστολον καὶ λειτουργὸν τῆς χρείας μου, πέμψαι πρὸς ὑμᾶς,
26For indeed he longed after you all: and was sad, for that you had heard that he was sick.quoniam quidem omnes vos desiderabat: et moestus erat, propterea quod audieratis illum infirmatum.ἐπειδὴ ἐπιποθῶν ἦν πάντας ὑμᾶς, καὶ ἀδημονῶν διότι ἠκούσατε ὅτι ἠσθένησε.
27For indeed he was sick, nigh unto death; but God had mercy on him; and not only on him, but on me also, lest I should have sorrow upon sorrow.Nam et infirmatus est usque ad mortem: sed Deus misertus est eius: non solum autem eius, verum etiam et mei, ne tristitiam super tristitiam haberem.καὶ γὰρ ἠσθένησε παραπλήσιον θανάτου· ἀλλ᾽ ὁ Θεὸς αὐτὸν ἠλέησεν, οὐκ αὐτὸν δὲ μόνον, ἀλλὰ καὶ ἐμέ, ἵνα μὴ λύπην ἐπὶ λύπην σχῶ.
28Therefore I sent him the more speedily: that seeing him again, you may rejoice, and I may be without sorrow.Festinantius ergo misi illum, ut viso eo iterum gaudeatis, et ego sine tristitia sim.σπουδαιοτέρως οὖν ἔπεμψα αὐτόν, ἵνα ἰδόντες αὐτὸν πάλιν χαρῆτε, κἀγὼ ἀλυπότερος ὦ.
29Receive him therefore with all joy in the Lord; and treat with honour such as he is.Excipite itaque illum cum omni gaudio in Domino, et eiusmodi cum honore habetote;προσδέχεσθε οὖν αὐτὸν ἐν Κυρίῳ μετὰ πάσης χαρᾶς, καὶ τοὺς τοιούτους ἐντίμους ἔχετε,
30Because for the work of Christ he came to the point of death: delivering his life, that he might fulfill that which on your part was wanting towards my service.quoniam propter opus Christi usque ad mortem accessit, tradens animam suam ut impleret id quod ex vobis deerat erga meum obsequium.ὅτι διὰ τὸ ἔργον τοῦ Χριστοῦ μέχρι θανάτου ἤγγισε, παραβουλευσάμενος τῇ ψυχῇ ἵνα ἀναπληρώσῃ τὸ ὑμῶν ὑστέρημα τῆς πρός με λειτουργίας.

Jesus laments over Jerusalem, which kills the prophets

The same day, there came some of the Pharisees, saying to him: Depart, and get thee hence, for Herod hath a mind to kill thee. And he said to them: Go and tell that fox, Behold, I cast out devils, and do cures today and…
