玛窦福音 10

1And having called his twelve disciples together, he gave them power over unclean spirits, to cast them out, and to heal all manner of diseases, and all manner of infirmities.

2And the names of the twelve apostles are these: The first, Simon who is called Peter, and Andrew his brother,

3James the son of Zebedee, and John his brother, Philip and Bartholomew, Thomas and Matthew the publican, and James the son of Alpheus, and Thaddeus,

4Simon the Cananean, and Judas Iscariot, who also betrayed him.

5These twelve Jesus sent: commanding them, saying: Go ye not into the way of the Gentiles, and into the city of the Samaritans enter ye not.

6But go ye rather to the lost sheep of the house of Israel.

7And going, preach, saying: The kingdom of heaven is at hand.

8Heal the sick, raise the dead, cleanse the lepers, cast out devils: freely have you received, freely give.

9Do not possess gold, nor silver, nor money in your purses:

10Nor scrip for your journey, nor two coats, nor shoes, nor a staff; for the workman is worthy of his meat.

11And into whatsoever city or town you shall enter, inquire who in it is worthy, and there abide till you go thence.

12And when you come into the house, salute it, saying: Peace be to this house.

13And if that house be worthy, your peace shall come upon it; but if it be not worthy, your peace shall return to you.

14And whosoever shall not receive you, nor hear your words: going forth out of that house or city shake off the dust from your feet.

15Amen I say to you, it shall be more tolerable for the land of Sodom and Gomorrha in the day of judgment, than for that city.

16Behold I send you as sheep in the midst of wolves. Be ye therefore wise as serpents and simple as doves.

17But beware of men. For they will deliver you up in councils, and they will scourge you in their synagogues.

18And you shall be brought before governors, and before kings for my sake, for a testimony to them and to the Gentiles:

19But when they shall deliver you up, take no thought how or what to speak: for it shall be given you in that hour what to speak.

20For it is not you that speak, but the Spirit of your Father that speaketh in you.

21The brother also shall deliver up the brother to death, and the father the son: and the children shall rise up against their parents, and shall put them to death.

22And you shall be hated by all men for my name’s sake: but he that shall persevere unto the end, he shall be saved.

23And when they shall persecute you in this city, flee into another. Amen I say to you, you shall not finish all the cities of Israel, till the Son of man come.

24The disciple is not above the master, nor the servant above his lord.

25It is enough for the disciple that he be as his master, and the servant as his lord. If they have called the goodman of the house Beelzebub, how much more them of his household?

26Therefore fear them not. For nothing is covered that shall not be revealed: nor hid, that shall not be known.

27That which I tell you in the dark, speak ye in the light: and that which you hear in the ear, preach ye upon the housetops.

28And fear ye not them that kill the body, and are not able to kill the soul: but rather fear him that can destroy both soul and body in hell.

29Are not two sparrows sold for a farthing? and not one of them shall fall on the ground without your Father.

30But the very hairs of your head are all numbered.

31Fear not therefore: better are you than many sparrows.

32Every one therefore that shall confess me before men, I will also confess him before my Father who is in heaven.

33But he that shall deny me before men, I will also deny him before my Father who is in heaven.

34Do not think that I came to send peace upon earth: I came not to send peace, but the sword.

35For I came to set a man at variance against his father, and the daughter against her mother, and the daughter in law against her mother in law.

36And as a man’s enemies shall be they of his own household.

37He that loveth father or mother more than me, is not worthy of me; and he that loveth son or daughter more than me, is not worthy of me.

38And he that taketh not up his cross, and followeth me, is not worthy of me.

39He that findeth his life, shall lose it: and he that shall lose his life for me, shall find it.

40He that receiveth you, receiveth me: and he that receiveth me, receiveth him that sent me.

41He that receiveth a prophet in the name of a prophet, shall receive the reward of a prophet: and he that receiveth a just man in the name of a just man, shall receive the reward of a just man.

42And whosoever shall give to drink to one of these little ones a cup of cold water only in the name of a disciple, amen I say to you, he shall not lose his reward.

1Et convocatis duodecim discipulis suis, dedit illis potestatem spirituum immundorum, ut ejicerent eos, et curarent omnem languorem, et omnem infirmitatem.

2Duodecim autem Apostolorum nomina sunt hæc. Primus, Simon, qui dicitur Petrus: et Andreas frater ejus,

3Jacobus Zebedæi, et Joannes frater ejus, Philippus, et Bartholomæus, Thomas, et Matthæus publicanus, Jacobus Alphæi, et Thaddæus,

4Simon Chananæus, et Judas Iscariotes, qui et tradidit eum.

5Hos duodecim misit Jesus, præcipiens eis, dicens: In viam gentium ne abieritis, et in civitates Samaritanorum ne intraveritis:

6sed potius ite ad oves quæ perierunt domus Israël.

7Euntes autem prædicate, dicentes: Quia appropinquavit regnum cælorum.

8Infirmos curate, mortuos suscitate, leprosos mundate, dæmones ejicite: gratis accepistis, gratis date.

9Nolite possidere aurum, neque argentum, neque pecuniam in zonis vestris:

10non peram in via, neque duas tunicas, neque calceamenta, neque virgam: dignus enim est operarius cibo suo.

11In quamcumque autem civitatem aut castellum intraveritis, interrogate, quis in ea dignus sit: et ibi manete donec exeatis.

12Intrantes autem in domum, salutate eam, dicentes: Pax huic domui.

13Et siquidem fuerit domus illa digna, veniet pax vestra super eam: si autem non fuerit digna, pax vestra revertetur ad vos.

14Et quicumque non receperit vos, neque audierit sermones vestros: exeunte foras de domo, vel civitate, excutite pulverem de pedibus vestris.

15Amen dico vobis: Tolerabilius erit terræ Sodomorum et Gomorrhæorum in die judicii, quam illi civitati.

16Ecce ego mitto vos sicut oves in medio luporum. Estote ergo prudentes sicut serpentes, et simplices sicut columbæ.

17Cavete autem ab hominibus. Tradent enim vos in conciliis, et in synagogis suis flagellabunt vos:

18et ad præsides, et ad reges ducemini propter me in testimonium illis, et gentibus.

19Cum autem tradent vos, nolite cogitare quomodo, aut quid loquamini: dabitur enim vobis in illa hora, quid loquamini:

20non enim vos estis qui loquimini, sed Spiritus Patris vestri, qui loquitur in vobis.

21Tradet autem frater fratrem in mortem, et pater filium: et insurgent filii in parentes, et morte eos afficient:

22et eritis odio omnibus propter nomen meum: qui autem perseveraverit usque in finem, hic salvus erit.

23Cum autem persequentur vos in civitate ista, fugite in aliam. Amen dico vobis, non consummabitis civitates Israël, donec veniat Filius hominis.

24Non est discipulus super magistrum, nec servus super dominum suum:

25sufficit discipulo ut sit sicut magister ejus, et servo, sicut dominus ejus. Si patremfamilias Beelzebub vocaverunt, quanto magis domesticos ejus?

26Ne ergo timueritis eos. Nihil enim est opertum, quod non revelabitur: et occultum, quod non scietur.

27Quod dico vobis in tenebris, dicite in lumine: et quod in aure auditis, prædicate super tecta.

28Et nolite timere eos qui occidunt corpus, animam autem non possunt occidere: sed potius timete eum, qui potest et animam et corpus perdere in gehennam.

29Nonne duo passeres asse veneunt? et unus ex illis non cadet super terram sine Patre vestro.

30Vestri autem capilli capitis omnes numerati sunt.

31Nolite ergo timere: multis passeribus meliores estis vos.

32Omnis ergo qui confitebitur me coram hominibus, confitebor et ego eum coram Patre meo, qui in cælis est.

33Qui autem negaverit me coram hominibus, negabo et ego eum coram Patre meo, qui in cælis est.

34Nolite arbitrari quia pacem venerim mittere in terram: non veni pacem mittere, sed gladium:

35veni enim separare hominem adversus patrem suum, et filiam adversus matrem suam, et nurum adversus socrum suam:

36et inimici hominis, domestici ejus.

37Qui amat patrem aut matrem plus quam me, non est me dignus: et qui amat filium aut filiam super me, non est me dignus.

38Et qui non accipit crucem suam, et sequitur me, non est me dignus.

39Qui invenit animam suam, perdet illam: et qui perdiderit animam suam propter me, inveniet eam.

40Qui recipit vos, me recipit: et qui me recipit, recipit eum qui me misit.

41Qui recipit prophetam in nomine prophetæ, mercedem prophetæ accipiet: et qui recipit justum in nomine justi, mercedem justi accipiet.

42Et quicumque potum dederit uni ex minimis istis calicem aquæ frigidæ tantum in nomine discipuli: amen dico vobis, non perdet mercedem suam.

1And having called together his twelve disciples, he gave them authority over unclean spirits, to cast them out and to cure every sickness and every infirmity.

2Now the names of the twelve Apostles are these: the First, Simon, who is called Peter, and Andrew his brother,

3James of Zebedee, and John his brother, Philip and Bartholomew, Thomas and Matthew the tax collector, and James of Alphaeus, and Thaddaeus,

4Simon the Canaanite, and Judas Iscariot, who also betrayed him.

5Jesus sent these twelve, instructing them, saying: “Do not travel by the way of the Gentiles, and do not enter into the city of the Samaritans,

6but instead go to the sheep who have fallen away from the house of Israel.

7And going forth, preach, saying: ‘For the kingdom of heaven has drawn near.’

8Cure the infirm, raise the dead, cleanse lepers, cast out demons. You have received freely, so give freely.

9Do not choose to possess gold, nor silver, nor money in your belts,

10nor provisions for the journey, nor two tunics, nor shoes, nor a staff. For the laborer deserves his portion.

11Now, into whatever city or town you will enter, inquire as to who is worthy within it. And stay there until you depart.

12Then, when you enter into the house, greet it, saying, ‘Peace to this house.’

13And if, indeed, that house is worthy, your peace will rest upon it. But if it is not worthy, your peace will return to you.

14And whoever has neither received you, nor listened to your words, departing from that house or city, shake off the dust from your feet.

15Amen I say to you, it will be more tolerable for the land of Sodom and Gomorrah in the day of judgment, than for that city.

16Behold, I am sending you like sheep in the midst of wolves. Therefore, be as prudent as serpents and as simple as doves.

17But beware of men. For they will hand you over to councils, and they will scourge you in their synagogues.

18And you shall be led before both rulers and kings for my sake, as a testimony to them and to the Gentiles.

19But when they hand you over, do not choose to think about how or what to speak. For what to speak shall be given to you in that hour.

20For it is not you who will be speaking, but the Spirit of your Father, who will speak in you.

21And brother will hand over brother to death, and father will hand over son. And children will rise up against parents and bring about their deaths.

22And you will be hated by all for the sake of my name. But whoever will have persevered, even to the end, the same shall be saved.

23Now when they persecute you in one city, flee into another. Amen I say to you, you will not have exhausted all the cities of Israel, before the Son of man returns.

24The disciple is not above the teacher, nor is the servant above his master.

25It is sufficient for the disciple that he be like his teacher, and the servant, like his master. If they have called the Father of the family, ‘Beelzebub,’ how much more those of his household?

26Therefore, do not fear them. For nothing is covered that shall not be revealed, nor hidden that shall not be known.

27What I tell you in darkness, speak in the light. And what you hear whispered in the ear, preach above the rooftops.

28And do not be afraid of those who kill the body, but are not able to kill the soul. But instead fear him who is able to destroy both soul and body in Hell.

29Are not two sparrows sold for one small coin? And yet not one of them will fall to the ground without your Father.

30For even the hairs of your head have all been numbered.

31Therefore, do not be afraid. You are worth more than many sparrows.

32Therefore, everyone who acknowledges me before men, I also will acknowledge before my Father, who is in heaven.

33But whoever will have denied me before men, I also will deny before my Father, who is in heaven.

34Do not think that I came to send peace upon the earth. I came, not to send peace, but the sword.

35For I came to divide a man against his father, and a daughter against her mother, and a daughter-in-law against her mother-in-law.

36And the enemies of a man will be those of his own household.

37Whoever loves father or mother more than me is not worthy of me. And whoever loves son or daughter above me is not worthy of me.

38And whoever does not take up his cross and follow me is not worthy of me.

39Whoever finds his life, will lose it. And whoever will have lost his life because of me, shall find it.

40Whoever receives you, receives me. And whoever receives me, receives him who sent me.

41Whoever receives a prophet, in the name of a prophet, shall receive the reward of a prophet. And whoever receives the just in the name of the just shall receive the reward of the just.

42And whoever shall give, even to one of the least of these, a cup of cold water to drink, solely in the name of a disciple: Amen I say to you, he shall not lose his reward.”
