1 Then Jesus left that place and went into the region of Judea, beyond the Jordan. Again the crowds came to Him and He taught them, as was His custom.
1 Y PARTIÉNDOSE de allí, vino á los términos de Judea y tras el Jordán: y volvió el pueblo á juntarse á él; y de nuevo les enseñaba como solía.
2 Some Pharisees came to test Him. “Is it lawful for a man to divorce his wife?” they inquired.
2 Y llegándose los Fariseos, le preguntaron, para tentarle, si era lícito al marido repudiar á su mujer.
3 “What did Moses command you?” He replied.
3 Mas él respondiendo, les dijo: ¿Qué os mandó Moisés?
4 They answered, “Moses permitted a man to write his wife a certificate of divorce and send her away.”
4 Y ellos dijeron: Moisés permitió escribir carta de divorcio, y repudiar.
5 But Jesus told them, “Moses wrote this commandment for you because of your hardness of heart.
5 Y respondiendo Jesús, les dijo: Por la dureza de vuestro corazón os escribió este mandamiento;
6 However, from the beginning of creation, ‘God made them male and female.’
6 Pero al principio de la creación, varón y hembra los hizo Dios.
7 ‘For this reason a man will leave his father and mother and be united to his wife,
7 Por esto dejará el hombre á su padre y á su madre, y se juntará á su mujer.
8 and the two will become one flesh.’ So they are no longer two, but one flesh.
8 Y los que [eran] dos, serán hechos una carne: así que no son más dos, sino una carne.
9 Therefore what God has joined together, let man not separate.”
9 Pues lo que Dios juntó, no [lo] aparte el hombre.
10 When they were back inside the house, His disciples asked Jesus about this matter.
10 Y en casa volvieron los discípulos á preguntarle de lo mismo.
11 So He told them, “Whoever divorces his wife and marries another woman commits adultery against her.
11 Y les dice: Cualquiera que repudiare á su mujer, y se casare con otra, comete adulterio contra ella:
12 And if a woman divorces her husband and marries another man, she commits adultery.”
12 Y si la mujer repudiare á su marido y se casare con otro, comete adulterio.
13 Now people were bringing the little children to Jesus for Him to place His hands on them, and the disciples rebuked those who brought them.
13 Y le presentaban niños para que los tocase; y los discípulos reñían á los que los presentaban.
14 But when Jesus saw this, He was indignant and told them, “Let the little children come to Me, and do not hinder them! For the kingdom of God belongs to such as these.
14 Y viéndolo Jesús, se enojó, y les dijo: Dejad los niños venir, y no se lo estorbéis; porque de los tales es el reino de Dios.
15 Truly I tell you, anyone who does not receive the kingdom of God like a little child will never enter it.”
15 De cierto os digo, que el que no recibiere el reino de Dios como un niño, no entrará en él.
16 And He took the children in His arms, placed His hands on them, and blessed them.
16 Y tomándolos en los brazos, poniendo las manos sobre ellos, los bendecía.
17 As Jesus started on His way, a man ran up and knelt before Him. “Good Teacher,” he asked, “what must I do to inherit eternal life?”
17 Y saliendo él para ir su camino, vino uno corriendo, é hincando la rodilla delante de él, le preguntó: Maestro bueno, ¿qué haré para poseer la vida eterna?
18 “Why do you call Me good?” Jesus replied. “No one is good except God alone.
18 Y Jesús le dijo: ¿Por qué me dices bueno? Ninguno hay bueno, sino [sólo] uno, Dios.
19 You know the commandments: ‘Do not commit adultery, do not murder, do not steal, do not bear false witness, do not cheat others, honor your father and mother.’”
19 Los mandamientos sabes: No adulteres: No mates: No hurtes: No digas falso testimonio: No defraudes: Honra á tu padre y á tu madre.
20 “Teacher,” he replied, “all these I have kept from my youth.”
20 El entonces respondiendo, le dijo: Maestro, todo esto he guardado desde mi mocedad.
21 Jesus looked at him, loved him, and said to him, “There is one thing you lack: Go, sell everything you own and give to the poor, and you will have treasure in heaven. Then come, take up the cross, and follow Me.”
21 Entonces Jesús mirándole, amóle, y díjole: Una cosa te falta: ve, vende todo lo que tienes, y da á los pobres, y tendrás tesoro en el cielo; y ven, sígueme, tomando tu cruz.
22 But the man was saddened by these words and went away in sorrow, because he had great wealth.
22 Mas él, entristecido por esta palabra, se fué triste, porque tenía muchas posesiones.
23 Then Jesus looked around and said to His disciples, “How hard it is for the rich to enter the kingdom of God!”
23 Entonces Jesús, mirando alrededor, dice á sus discípulos: ¡Cuán difícilmente entrarán en el reino de Dios los que tienen riquezas!
24 And the disciples were amazed at His words. But Jesus said to them again, “Children, how hard it is for those who trust in riches to enter the kingdom of God!
24 Y los discípulos se espantaron de sus palabras; mas Jesús respondiendo, les volvió á decir: ¡Hijos, cuán difícil es entrar en el reino de Dios, los que confían en las riquezas!
25 It is easier for a camel to pass through the eye of a needle than for a rich man to enter the kingdom of God.”
25 Más fácil es pasar un camello por el ojo de una aguja, que el rico entrar en el reino de Dios.
26 They were even more astonished and said to one another, “Who then can be saved?”
26 Y ellos se espantaban más, diciendo dentro de sí: ¿Y quién podrá salvarse?
27 Jesus looked at them and said, “With man this is impossible, but not with God. For all things are possible with God.”
27 Entonces Jesús mirándolos, dice: Para los hombres es imposible; mas para Dios, no; porque todas las cosas son posibles para Dios.
28 Peter began to say to Him, “Look, we have left everything and followed You.”
28 Entonces Pedro comenzó á decirle: He aquí, nosotros hemos dejado todas las cosas, y te hemos seguido.
29 “Truly I tell you,” Jesus replied, “no one who has left home or brothers or sisters or mother or father or wife or children or fields for My sake and for the gospel
29 Y respondiendo Jesús, dijo: De cierto os digo, que no hay ninguno que haya dejado casa, ó hermanos, ó hermanas, ó padre, ó madre, ó mujer, ó hijos, ó heredades, por causa de mí y del evangelio,
30 will fail to receive a hundredfold in the present age—houses and brothers and sisters and mothers and children and fields, along with persecutions—and in the age to come, eternal life.
30 Que no reciba cien tantos ahora en este tiempo, casas, y hermanos, y hermanas, y madres, é hijos, y heredades, con persecuciones; y en el siglo venidero la vida eterna.
31 But many who are first will be last, and the last will be first.”
31 Empero muchos primeros serán postreros, y postreros primeros.
32 As they were going up the road to Jerusalem, Jesus was walking ahead of them. The disciples were amazed, but as they followed, they were afraid. Again Jesus took the Twelve aside and began to tell them what was going to happen to Him:
32 Y estaban en el camino subiendo á Jerusalem; y Jesús iba delante de ellos, y se espantaban, y le seguían con miedo: entonces volviendo á tomar á los doce [aparte], les comenzó á decir las cosas que le habían de acontecer:
33 “Look, we are going up to Jerusalem, and the Son of Man will be delivered over to the chief priests and scribes. They will condemn Him to death and will deliver Him over to the Gentiles,
33 He aquí subimos á Jerusalem, y el Hijo del hombre será entregado á los príncipes de los sacerdotes, y á los escribas, y le condenarán á muerte, y le entregarán á los Gentiles:
34 who will mock Him and flog Him and spit on Him and kill Him. And on the third day He will rise again.”
34 Y le escarnecerán, y le azotarán, y escupirán en él, y le matarán; mas al tercer día resucitará.
35 Then James and John, the sons of Zebedee, came to Jesus and declared, “Teacher, we want You to do for us whatever we ask.”
35 Entonces Jacobo y Juan, hijos de Zebedeo, se llegaron á él, diciendo: Maestro, querríamos que nos hagas lo que pidiéremos.
36 “What do you want Me to do for you?” He inquired.
36 Y él les dijo: ¿Qué queréis que os haga?
37 They answered, “Grant that one of us may sit at Your right hand and the other at Your left in Your glory.”
37 Y ellos le dijeron: Danos que en tu gloria nos sentemos el uno á tu diestra, y el otro á tu siniestra.
38 “You do not know what you are asking,” Jesus replied. “Can you drink the cup I will drink, and be baptized with the baptism I will undergo?”
38 Entonces Jesús les dijo: No sabéis lo que pedís. ¿Podéis beber del vaso que yo bebo, ó ser bautizados del bautismo de que yo soy bautizado?
39 “We can,” the brothers answered. “You will indeed drink the cup that I drink,” Jesus said, “and you will be baptized with the baptism that I undergo.
39 Y ellos dijeron: Podemos. Y Jesús les dijo: A la verdad, del vaso que yo bebo, beberéis; y del bautismo de que yo soy bautizado, seréis bautizados.
40 But to sit at My right and left is not Mine to grant. These seats belong to those for whom they have been prepared.”
40 Mas que os sentéis á mi diestra y á mi siniestra, no es mío darlo, sino á quienes está aparejado.
41 When the ten heard about this, they became indignant with James and John.
41 Y como lo oyeron los diez, comenzaron á enojarse de Jacobo y de Juan.
42 So Jesus called them together and said, “You know that those regarded as rulers of the Gentiles lord it over them, and their superiors exercise authority over them.
42 Mas Jesús, llamándolos, les dice: Sabéis que los que se ven ser príncipes entre las gentes, se enseñorean de ellas, y los que entre ellas son grandes, tienen sobre ellas potestad.
43 But it shall not be this way among you. Instead, whoever wants to become great among you must be your servant,
43 Mas no será así entre vosotros: antes cualquiera que quisiere hacerse grande entre vosotros, será vuestro servidor;
44 and whoever wants to be first must be the slave of all.
44 Y cualquiera de vosotros que quisiere hacerse el primero, será siervo de todos.
45 For even the Son of Man did not come to be served, but to serve, and to give His life as a ransom for many.”
45 Porque el Hijo del hombre tampoco vino para ser servido, mas para servir, y dar su vida en rescate por muchos.
46 Next, they came to Jericho. And as Jesus and His disciples were leaving Jericho with a large crowd, a blind man named Bartimaeus, the son of Timaeus, was sitting beside the road begging.
46 Entonces vienen á Jericó: y saliendo él de Jericó y sus discípulos y una gran compañía, Bartimeo el ciego, hijo de Timeo, estaba sentado junto al camino mendigando.
47 When he heard that it was Jesus of Nazareth, he began to cry out, “Jesus, Son of David, have mercy on me!”
47 Y oyendo que era Jesús el Nazareno, comenzó á dar voces y decir: Jesús, Hijo de David, ten misericordia de mí.
48 Many people admonished him to be silent, but he cried out all the louder, “Son of David, have mercy on me!”
48 Y muchos le reñían, que callase: mas él daba mayores voces: Hijo de David, ten misericordia de mí.
49 Jesus stopped and asked for him to be called over. So they called the blind man. “Take courage!” they said. “Get up! He is calling for you.”
49 Entonces Jesús parándose, mandó llamarle: y llaman al ciego, diciéndole: Ten confianza: levántate, te llama.
50 Throwing off his cloak, Bartimaeus rose up and came to Jesus.
50 El entonces, echando su capa, se levantó, y vino á Jesús.
51 “What do you want Me to do for you?” Jesus asked. “Rabboni,” said the blind man, “let me see again.”
51 Y respondiendo Jesús, le dice: ¿Qué quieres que te haga? Y el ciego le dice: Maestro, que cobre la vista.
52 “Go,” said Jesus, “your faith has healed you.” And immediately he received his sight and followed Jesus along the road.
52 Y Jesús le dijo: Ve, tu fe te ha salvado. Y luego cobró la vista, y seguía á Jesús en el camino.

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).
… added this redemption to the sons of Zebedee, when their mother asked that they might sit, the one on His right hand, and the other on His left, in His kingdom, saying, "Can ye be baptized with the baptism which I shall be baptized with?" Paul, too, they declare, has often set forth, in express terms, the redemption which is …
If it is said, "Thou shall not commit adultery, Thou shall not kill, Thou shall not steal," and other similar commandments, not human lips but the divine oracles have enounced them.

This step of humility those two disciples were loth to have an eye to, who said, "Lord, bid that one of us may sit at Thy right hand, and the other at the left in Thy kingdom." They sought for exaltation, they did not see the step.
