Luke 6 Darby Translation
Audio: World English Bible (WEB), read by Winfred W. Henson · About the recordings
1 And it came to pass on [the] second-first sabbath, that he went through cornfields, and his disciples were plucking the ears and eating [them], rubbing [them] in their hands.
1 Y ACONTECIÓ que pasando él por los sembrados en un sábado segundo del primero, sus discípulos arrancaban espigas, y comían, restregándolas con las manos.
2 But some of the Pharisees said to them, Why do ye what is not lawful to do on the sabbath?
2 Y algunos de los Fariseos les dijeron: ¿Por qué hacéis lo que no es lícito hacer en los sábados?
3 And Jesus answering said to them, Have ye not read so much as this, what David did when he hungered, he and those who were with him,
3 Y respondiendo Jesús les dijo: ¿Ni aun esto habéis leído, qué hizo David cuando tuvo hambre, él, y los que con él estaban;
4 how he entered into the house of God and took the shewbread and ate, and gave to those also who were with him, which it is not lawful that [any] eat, unless the priests alone?
4 Cómo entró en la casa de Dios, y tomó los panes de la proposición, y comió, y dió también á los que estaban con él, los cuales no era lícito comer, sino á solos los sacerdotes?
5 And he said to them, The Son of man is Lord of the sabbath also.
5 Y les decía: El Hijo del hombre es Señor aun del sábado.
6 And it came to pass on another sabbath also that he entered into the synagogue and taught; and there was a man there, and his right hand was withered.
6 Y aconteció también en otro sábado, que él entró en la sinagoga y enseñaba; y estaba allí un hombre que tenía la mano derecha seca.
7 And the scribes and the Pharisees were watching if he would heal on the sabbath, that they might find something of which to accuse him.
7 Y le acechaban los escribas y los Fariseos, si sanaría en sábado, por hallar de qué le acusasen.
8 But he knew their thoughts, and said to the man who had the withered hand, Get up, and stand in the midst. And having risen up he stood [there].
8 Mas él sabía los pensamientos de ellos; y dijo al hombre que tenía la mano seca: Levántate, y ponte en medio. Y él levantándose, se puso en pie.
9 Jesus therefore said to them, I will ask you if it is lawful on the sabbath to do good, or to do evil? to save life, or to destroy [it]?
9 Entonces Jesús les dice: Os preguntaré [una cosa]: ¿Es lícito en sábados hacer bien, ó hacer mal? ¿salvar la vida, ó quitarla?
10 And having looked around on them all, he said to him, Stretch out thy hand. And he did [so] and his hand was restored as the other.
10 Y mirándolos á todos alrededor, dice al hombre: Extiende tu mano. Y él lo hizo así, y su mano fué restaurada.
11 But they were filled with madness, and they spoke together among themselves what they should do to Jesus.
11 Y ellos se llenaron de rabia; y hablaban los unos á los otros qué harían á Jesús.
12 And it came to pass in those days that he went out into the mountain to pray, and he spent the night in prayer to God.
12 Y aconteció en aquellos días, que fué al monte á orar, y pasó la noche orando á Dios.
13 And when it was day he called his disciples, and having chosen out twelve from them, whom also he named apostles:
13 Y como fué de día, llamó á sus discípulos, y escogió doce de ellos, á los cuales también llamó apóstoles:
14 Simon, to whom also he gave the name of Peter, and Andrew his brother, [and] James and John, [and] Philip and Bartholomew,
14 A Simón, al cual también llamó Pedro, y á Andrés su hermano, Jacobo y Juan, Felipe y Bartolomé,
15 [and] Matthew and Thomas, James the [son] of Alphaeus and Simon who was called Zealot,
15 Mateo y Tomás, Jacobo [hijo] de Alfeo, y Simón el que se llama Celador,
16 [and] Judas [brother] of James, and Judas Iscariote, who was also [his] betrayer;
16 Judas hermano de Jacobo, y Judas Iscariote, que también fué el traidor.
17 and having descended with them, he stood on a level place, and a crowd of his disciples, and a great multitude of the people from all Judaea and Jerusalem, and the sea coast of Tyre and Sidon, who came to hear him, and to be healed of their diseases;
17 Y descendió con ellos, y se paró en un lugar llano, y la compañía de sus discípulos, y una grande multitud de pueblo de toda Judea y de Jerusalem, y de la costa de Tiro y de Sidón, que habían venido á oirle, y para ser sanados de sus enfermedades;
18 and those that were beset by unclean spirits were healed.
18 Y los que habían sido atormentados de espíritus inmundos: y estaban curados.
19 And all the crowd sought to touch him, for power went out from him and healed all.
19 Y toda la gente procuraba tocarle; porque salía de él virtud, y sanaba á todos.
20 And he, lifting up his eyes upon his disciples, said, Blessed [are] ye poor, for yours is the kingdom of God.
20 Y alzando él los ojos á sus discípulos, decía: Bienaventurados [vosotros] los pobres; porque vuestro es el reino de Dios.
21 Blessed ye that hunger now, for ye shall be filled. Blessed ye that weep now, for ye shall laugh.
21 Bienaventurados los que ahora tenéis hambre; porque seréis saciados. Bienaventurados los que ahora lloráis, porque reiréis.
22 Blessed are ye when men shall hate you, and when they shall separate you [from them], and shall reproach [you], and cast out your name as wicked, for the Son of man's sake:
22 Bienaventurados seréis, cuando los hombres os aborrecieren, y cuando os apartaren de sí, y os denostaren, y desecharen vuestro nombre como malo, por el Hijo del hombre.
23 rejoice in that day and leap for joy, for behold, your reward is great in the heaven, for after this manner did their fathers act toward the prophets.
23 Gozaos en aquel día, y alegraos; porque he aquí vuestro galardón es grande en los cielos; porque así hacían sus padres á los profetas.
24 But woe to you rich, for ye have received your consolation.
24 Mas ¡ay de vosotros, ricos! porque tenéis vuestro consuelo.
25 Woe to you that are filled, for ye shall hunger. Woe to you who laugh now, for ye shall mourn and weep.
25 ¡Ay de vosotros, los que estáis hartos! porque tendréis hambre. ¡Ay de vosotros, los que ahora reís! porque lamentaréis y lloraréis.
26 Woe, when all men speak well of you, for after this manner did their fathers to the false prophets.
26 ¡Ay de vosotros, cuando todos los hombres dijeren bien de vosotros! porque así hacían sus padres á los falsos profetas.
27 But to you that hear I say, Love your enemies; do good to those that hate you;
27 Mas á vosotros los que oís, digo: Amad á vuestros enemigos, haced bien á los que os aborrecen;
28 bless those that curse you; pray for those who use you despitefully.
28 Bendecid á los que os maldicen, y orad por los que os calumnian.
29 To him that smites thee on the cheek, offer also the other; and from him that would take away thy garment, forbid not thy body-coat also.
29 Y al que te hiriere en la mejilla, dale también la otra; y al que te quitare la capa, ni aun el sayo le defiendas.
30 To every one that asks of thee, give; and from him that takes away what is thine, ask it not back.
30 Y á cualquiera que te pidiere, da; y al que tomare lo que es tuyo, no vuelvas á pedir.
31 And as ye wish that men should do to you, do ye also to them in like manner.
31 Y como queréis que os hagan los hombres, así hacedles también vosotros:
32 And if ye love those that love you, what thank is it to you? for even sinners love those that love them.
32 Porque si amáis á los que os aman, ¿qué gracias tendréis? porque también los pecadores aman á los que los aman.
33 And if ye do good to those that do good to you, what thank is it to you? for even sinners do the same.
33 Y si hiciereis bien á los que os hacen bien, ¿qué gracias tendréis? porque también los pecadores hacen lo mismo.
34 And if ye lend to those from whom ye hope to receive, what thank is it to you? [for] even sinners lend to sinners that they may receive the like.
34 Y si prestareis á aquellos de quienes esperáis recibir, ¿qué gracias tendréis? porque también los pecadores prestan á los pecadores, para recibir otro tanto.
35 But love your enemies, and do good, and lend, hoping for nothing in return, and your reward shall be great, and ye shall be sons of [the] Highest; for he is good to the unthankful and wicked.
35 Amad, pues, á vuestros enemigos, y haced bien, y prestad, no esperando de ello nada; y será vuestro galardón grande, y seréis hijos del Altísimo: porque él es benigno para con los ingratos y malos.
36 Be ye therefore merciful, even as your Father also is merciful.
36 Sed pues misericordiosos, como también vuestro Padre es misericordioso.
37 And judge not, and ye shall not be judged; condemn not, and ye shall not be condemned. Remit, and it shall be remitted to you.
37 No juzguéis, y no seréis juzgados: no condenéis, y no seréis condenados: perdonad, y seréis perdonados.
38 Give, and it shall be given to you; good measure, pressed down, and shaken together, and running over, shall be given into your bosom: for with the same measure with which ye mete it shall be measured to you again.
38 Dad, y se os dará; medida buena, apretada, remecida, y rebosando darán en vuestro seno: porque con la misma medida que midiereis, os será vuelto á medir.
39 And he spoke also a parable to them: Can a blind [man] lead a blind [man]? shall not both fall into [the] ditch?
39 Y les decía una parábola: ¿Puede el ciego guiar al ciego? ¿No caerán ambos en el hoyo?
40 The disciple is not above his teacher, but every one that is perfected shall be as his teacher.
40 El discípulo no es sobre su maestro; mas cualquiera que fuere como el maestro, será perfecto.
41 But why lookest thou on the mote which is in the eye of thy brother, but perceivest not the beam which is in thine own eye?
41 ¿Por qué miras la paja que está en el ojo de tu hermano, y la viga que está en tu propio ojo no consideras?
42 or how canst thou say to thy brother, Brother, allow [me], I will cast out the mote that is in thine eye, thyself not seeing the beam that is in thine eye? Hypocrite, cast out first the beam out of thine eye, and then thou shalt see clear to cast out the mote which is in the eye of thy brother.
42 ¿O cómo puedes decir á tu hermano: Hermano, deja, echaré fuera la paja que está en tu ojo, no mirando tú la viga que está en tu ojo? Hipócrita, echa primero fuera de tu ojo la viga, y entonces verás bien para sacar la paja que está en el ojo de tu hermano.
43 For there is no good tree which produces corrupt fruit, nor a corrupt tree which produces good fruit;
43 Porque no es buen árbol el que da malos frutos; ni árbol malo el que da buen fruto.
44 for every tree is known by its own fruit, for figs are not gathered from thorns, nor grapes vintaged from a bramble.
44 Porque cada árbol por su fruto es conocido: que no cogen higos de los espinos, ni vendimian uvas de las zarzas.
45 The good man, out of the good treasure of his heart, brings forth good; and the wicked [man] out of the wicked, brings forth what is wicked: for out of the abundance of the heart his mouth speaks.
45 El buen hombre del buen tesoro de su corazón saca bien; y el mal hombre del mal tesoro de su corazón saca mal; porque de la abundancia del corazón habla su boca.
46 And why call ye me, Lord, Lord, and do not the things that I say?
46 ¿Por qué me llamáis, Señor, Señor, y no hacéis lo que digo?
47 Every one that comes to me, and hears my words and does them, I will shew you to whom he is like.
47 Todo aquel que viene á mí, y oye mis palabras, y las hace, os enseñaré á quién es semejante:
48 He is like a man building a house, who dug and went deep, and laid a foundation on the rock; but a great rain coming, the stream broke upon that house, and could not shake it, for it had been founded on the rock.
48 Semejante es al hombre que edifica una casa, el cual cavó y ahondó, y puso el fundamento sobre la peña; y cuando vino una avenida, el río dió con ímpetu en aquella casa, mas no la pudo menear: porque estaba fundada sobre la peña.
49 And he that has heard and not done, is like a man who has built a house on the ground without [a] foundation, on which the stream broke, and immediately it fell, and the breach of that house was great.
49 Mas el que oyó y no hizo, semejante es al hombre que edificó su casa sobre tierra, sin fundamento; en la cual el río dió con ímpetu, y luego cayó; y fué grande la ruina de aquella casa.

What the Fathers said
Passages from the Church Fathers that expound or quote this chapter, verbatim from the public-domain Schaff edition (19th-century English translations).
How these were chosen
“Commentary” is the opening of a homily or exposition on this chapter (John Chrysostom’s homilies, Augustine’s tractates, sermons and expositions of the Psalms). “Quotes” are sentences where the edition’s own footnotes identify a quotation of a verse here, kept only when the wording matches the verse. Only works whose authorship is not in doubt are used. Psalms follow the Hebrew/English numbering (Augustine numbers them as the Septuagint does: his Psalm 50 is Psalm 51 here).
… false witness; "not rendering evil for evil, or railing for railing," or blow for blow, or cursing for cursing, but being mindful of what the Lord said in His teaching: "Judge not, that ye be not judged; forgive, and it shall be forgiven unto you; be merciful, that ye may obtain mercy; with what measure ye mete, it shall be …
But I say unto you, Pray for your enemies, and love them that hate you, and bless them that curse you, and pray for them that despitefully use you." And that we should communicate to the needy, and do nothing for glory, He said, "Give to him that asketh, and from him that would borrow turn not away; for if …
The production, again, of the Duodecad of the Æons, is indicated by the fact that the Lord was twelve years of age when He disputed with the teachers of the law, and by the election of the apostles, for of these there were twelve. The other eighteen Æons are made manifest in this way: that the Lord, [according to them,] …
… they are multiplied above number." This takes place now, since He has spoken, first by the mouth of his forerunner John, and afterward by His own mouth, saying, "Repent: for the kingdom of heaven is at hand." He chose disciples, whom He also called apostles, of lowly birth, unhonored, and illiterate, so that whatever great thing they might be or …

And again He saith, "When they shall cast out your name as evil, rejoice ye, and leap for joy." For not only of the dangers they underwent, but of the calumny also, He appoints the recompence to be great.
