Notes on this text (1)
- Original 16th-century spelling.
1 Then said he to his disciples, It can not be auoided, but that offences will come, but wo be to him by whome they come.
1 Y Á SUS discípulos dice: Imposible es que no vengan escándalos; mas ¡ay de aquél por quien vienen!
2 It is better for him that a great milstone were hanged about his necke, and that he were cast into ye sea, then that he should offende one of these litle ones.
2 Mejor le fuera, si le pusiesen al cuello una piedra de molino, y le lanzasen en el mar, que escandalizar á uno de estos pequeñitos.
3 Take heede to your selues: if thy brother trespasse against thee, rebuke him: and if hee repent, forgiue him.
3 Mirad por vosotros: si pecare contra ti tu hermano, repréndele; y si se arrepintiere, perdónale.
4 And though he sinne against thee seuen times in a day, and seuen times in a day turne againe to thee, saying, It repenteth mee, thou shalt forgiue him.
4 Y si siete veces al día pecare contra ti, y siete veces al día se volviere á ti, diciendo, pésame, perdónale.
5 And the Apostles saide vnto the Lord, Increase our faith.
5 Y dijeron los apóstoles al Señor: Auméntanos la fe.
6 And the Lord said, If ye had faith, as much as is a graine of mustard seede, and should say vnto this mulberie tree, Plucke thy selfe vp by the rootes, and plant thy selfe in the sea, it should euen obey you.
6 Entonces el Señor dijo: Si tuvieseis fe como un grano de mostaza, diréis á este sicómoro: Desarráigate, y plántate en el mar; y os obedecerá.
7 Who is it also of you, that hauing a seruant plowing or feeding cattell, woulde say vnto him by and by, when hee were come from the fielde, Goe, and sit downe at table?
7 ¿Y quién de vosotros tiene un siervo que ara ó apacienta, que vuelto del campo le diga luego: Pasa, siéntate á la mesa?
8 And woulde not rather say to him, Dresse wherewith I may suppe, and girde thy selfe, and serue mee, till I haue eaten and drunken, and afterward eate thou, and drinke thou?
8 ¿No le dice antes: Adereza qué cene, y arremángate, y sírveme hasta que haya comido y bebido; y después de esto, come tú y bebe?
9 Doeth he thanke that seruant, because hee did that which was commanded vnto him? I trowe not.
9 ¿Da gracias al siervo porque hizo lo que le había sido mandado? Pienso que no.
10 So likewise yee, when yee haue done all those things, which are commanded you, say, We are vnprofitable seruants: wee haue done that which was our duetie to doe.
10 Así también vosotros, cuando hubiereis hecho todo lo que os es mandado, decid: Siervos inútiles somos, porque lo que debíamos hacer, hicimos.
11 And so it was when he went to Hierusalem, that he passed through the middes of Samaria, and Galile.
11 Y aconteció que yendo él á Jerusalem, pasaba por medio de Samaria y de Galilea.
12 And as hee entred into a certaine towne, there met him tenne men that were lepers, which stoode a farre off.
12 Y entrando en una aldea, viniéronle al encuentro diez hombres leprosos, los cuales se pararon de lejos,
13 And they lift vp their voyces and saide, Iesus, Master, haue mercie on vs.
13 Y alzaron la voz, diciendo: Jesús, Maestro, ten misericordia de nosotros.
14 And when he saw them, he said vnto them, Goe, shewe your selues vnto the Priestes. And it came to passe, that as they went, they were clensed.
14 Y como él los vió, les dijo: Id, mostraos á los sacerdotes. Y aconteció, que yendo ellos, fueron limpios.
15 Then one of them, when hee sawe that hee, was healed, turned backe, and with a loude voyce praised God,
15 Entonces uno de ellos, como se vió que estaba limpio, volvió, glorificando á Dios á gran voz;
16 And fell downe on his face at his feete, and gaue him thankes: and he was a Samaritan.
16 Y derribóse sobre el rostro á sus pies, dándole gracias: y éste era Samaritano.
17 And Iesus answered, and said, Are there not tenne clensed? but where are the nine?
17 Y respondiendo Jesús, dijo: ¿No son diez los que fueron limpios? ¿Y los nueve dónde están?
18 There is none founde that returned to giue God praise, saue this stranger.
18 ¿No hubo quien volviese y diese gloria á Dios sino este extranjero?
19 And he saide vnto him, Arise, goe thy way, thy faith hath saued thee.
19 Y díjole: Levántate, vete; tu fe te ha salvado.
20 And when hee was demaunded of the Pharises, when the kingdome of God shoulde come, he answered them, and said, The kingdome of God commeth not with obseruation.
20 Y preguntado por los Fariseos, cuándo había de venir el reino de Dios, les respondió y dijo: El reino de Dios no vendrá con advertencia;
21 Neither shall men say, Loe here, or lo there: for behold, the kingdome of God is within you.
21 Ni dirán: Helo aquí, ó helo allí: porque he aquí el reino de Dios entre vosotros está.
22 And he saide vnto the disciples, The dayes will come, when ye shall desire to see one of the dayes of the Sonne of man, and ye shall not see it.
22 Y dijo á sus discípulos: Tiempo vendrá, cuando desearéis ver uno de los días del Hijo del hombre, y no lo veréis.
23 Then they shall say to you, Behold here, or beholde there: but goe not thither, neither follow them.
23 Y os dirán: Helo aquí, ó helo allí. No vayáis, ni sigáis.
24 For as the lightening that lighteneth out of the one part vnder heauen, shineth vnto the other part vnder heauen, so shall the Sonne of man be in his day.
24 Porque como el relámpago, relampagueando desde una parte de debajo del cielo, resplandece hasta la otra debajo del cielo, así también será el Hijo del hombre en su día.
25 But first must he suffer many things, and be reprooued of this generation.
25 Mas primero es necesario que padezca mucho, y sea reprobado de esta generación.
26 And as it was in the dayes of Noe, so shall it be in the dayes of the Sonne of man.
26 Y como fué en los días de Noé, así también será en los días del Hijo del hombre.
27 They ate, they dranke, they married wiues, and gaue in marriage vnto the day that Noe went into the Arke: and the flood came, and destroyed them all.
27 Comían, bebían, [los hombres] tomaban mujeres, y las mujeres maridos, hasta el día que entró Noé en el arca; y vino el diluvio, y destruyó á todos.
28 Likewise also, as it was in the dayes of Lot: they ate, they dranke, they bought, they solde, they planted, they built.
28 Asimismo también como fué en los días de Lot; comían, bebían, compraban, vendían, plantaban, edificaban;
29 But in the day that Lot went out of Sodom, it rained fire and brimstone from heauen, and destroyed them all.
29 Mas el día que Lot salió de Sodoma, llovió del cielo fuego y azufre, y destruyó á todos:
30 After these ensamples shall it be in the day when the Sonne of man is reueiled.
30 Como esto será el día en que el Hijo del hombre se manifestará.
31 At that day hee that is vpon the house, and his stuffe in ye house, let him not come downe to take it out: and he that is in the fielde likewise, let him not turne backe to that he left behinde.
31 En aquel día, el que estuviere en el terrado, y sus alhajas en casa, no descienda á tomarlas: y el que en el campo, asimismo no vuelva atrás.
32 Remember Lots wife.
32 Acordaos de la mujer de Lot.
33 Whosoeuer will seeke to saue his soule, shall loose it: and whosoeuer shall loose it, shall get it life.
33 Cualquiera que procurare salvar su vida, la perderá; y cualquiera que la perdiere, la salvará.
34 I tell you, in that night there shall be two in one bed: the one shalbe receiued, and the other shalbe left.

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).
The Holy Gospel which we heard just now as it was being read, has admonished touching the remission of sins. And on this subject must ye be admonished now by my discourse.

In that day, he which shall be upon the house-top, and his stuff in the house, let him not come down to take it away; and he that is in the field, let him likewise not return back. Remember Lot's wife." Is it when our Lord shall have been revealed that men are to give heed to these sayings, and …

But if thou thinkest that thou really art faithful, but hast not yet the fulness of faith, thou too hast need to say like the Apostles, Lord, increase our faith: for some part thou hast of thyself, but the greater part thou receivest from Him.
