1 και εγενετο οτε ετελεσεν ο ιησουσ διατασσων τοισ δωδεκα μαθηταισ αυτου μετεβη εκειθεν του διδασκειν και κηρυσσειν εν ταισ πολεσιν αυτων
1 Y FUÉ, que acabando Jesús de dar mandamientos á sus doce discípulos, se fué de allí á enseñar y á predicar en las ciudades de ellos.
1 When Jesus had finished directing his twelve disciples, he departed from there to teach and preach in their cities.
2 ο δε ιωαννησ ακουσασ εν τω δεσμωτηριω τα εργα του χριστου πεμψασ δυο των μαθητων αυτου
2 Y oyendo Juan en la prisión los hechos de Cristo, le envió dos de sus discípulos,
2 Now when John heard in the prison the works of Christ, he sent two of his disciples
3 ειπεν αυτω συ ει ο ερχομενοσ η ετερον προσδοκωμεν
3 Diciendo: ¿Eres tú aquél que había de venir, ó esperaremos á otro?
3 and said to him, “Are you he who comes, or should we look for another?”
4 και αποκριθεισ ο ιησουσ ειπεν αυτοισ πορευθεντεσ απαγγειλατε ιωαννη α ακουετε και βλεπετε
4 Y respondiendo Jesús, les dijo: Id, y haced saber á Juan las cosas que oís y veis:
4 Jesus answered them, “Go and tell John the things which you hear and see:
5 τυφλοι αναβλεπουσιν και χωλοι περιπατουσιν λεπροι καθαριζονται και κωφοι ακουουσιν νεκροι εγειρονται και πτωχοι ευαγγελιζονται
5 Los ciegos ven, y los cojos andan; los leprosos son limpiados, y los sordos oyen; los muertos son resucitados, y á los pobres es anunciado el evangelio.
5 the blind receive their sight, the lame walk, the lepers are cleansed, the deaf hear, the dead are raised up, and the poor have good news preached to them.
6 και μακαριοσ εστιν οσ εαν μη σκανδαλισθη εν εμοι
6 Y bienaventurado es el que no fuere escandalizado en mí.
6 Blessed is he who finds no occasion for stumbling in me.”
7 τουτων δε πορευομενων ηρξατο ο ιησουσ λεγειν τοισ οχλοισ περι ιωαννου τι εξηλθετε εισ την ερημον θεασασθαι καλαμον υπο ανεμου σαλευομενον
7 E idos ellos, comenzó Jesús á decir de Juan á las gentes: ¿Qué salisteis á ver al desierto? ¿una caña que es meneada del viento?
7 As these went their way, Jesus began to say to the multitudes concerning John, “What did you go out into the wilderness to see? A reed shaken by the wind?
8 αλλα τι εξηλθετε ιδειν ανθρωπον εν μαλακοισ ιματιοισ ημφιεσμενον ιδου οι τα μαλακα φορουντεσ εν τοισ οικοισ των βασιλειων εισιν
8 Mas ¿qué salisteis á ver? ¿un hombre cubierto de delicados [vestidos]? He aquí, los que traen [vestidos] delicados, en las casas de los reyes están.
8 But what did you go out to see? A man in soft clothing? Behold, those who wear soft clothing are in kings’ houses.
9 αλλα τι εξηλθετε ιδειν προφητην ναι λεγω υμιν και περισσοτερον προφητου
9 Mas ¿qué salisteis á ver? ¿un profeta? También os digo, y más que profeta.
9 But why did you go out? To see a prophet? Yes, I tell you, and much more than a prophet.
10 ουτοσ γαρ εστιν περι ου γεγραπται ιδου εγω αποστελλω τον αγγελον μου προ προσωπου σου οσ κατασκευασει την οδον σου εμπροσθεν σου
10 Porque éste es de quien está escrito: He aquí, yo envío mi mensajero delante de tu faz, que aparejará tu camino delante de ti.
10 For this is he, of whom it is written, ‘Behold, I send my messenger before your face, who will prepare your way before you.’
11 αμην λεγω υμιν ουκ εγηγερται εν γεννητοισ γυναικων μειζων ιωαννου του βαπτιστου ο δε μικροτεροσ εν τη βασιλεια των ουρανων μειζων αυτου εστιν
11 De cierto os digo, [que] no se levantó entre los que nacen de mujeres otro mayor que Juan el Bautista; mas el que es muy más pequeño en el reino de los cielos, mayor es que él.
11 Most certainly I tell you, among those who are born of women there has not arisen anyone greater than John the Baptizer; yet he who is least in the Kingdom of Heaven is greater than he.
12 απο δε των ημερων ιωαννου του βαπτιστου εωσ αρτι η βασιλεια των ουρανων βιαζεται και βιασται αρπαζουσιν αυτην
12 Desde los días de Juan el Bautista hasta ahora, al reino de los cielos se hace fuerza, y los valientes lo arrebatan.
12 From the days of John the Baptizer until now, the Kingdom of Heaven suffers violence, and the violent take it by force.
13 παντεσ γαρ οι προφηται και ο νομοσ εωσ ιωαννου προεφητευσαν
13 Porque todos los profetas y la ley hasta Juan profetizaron.
13 For all the prophets and the law prophesied until John.
14 και ει θελετε δεξασθαι αυτοσ εστιν ηλιασ ο μελλων ερχεσθαι
14 Y si queréis recibir, él es aquel Elías que había de venir.
14 If you are willing to receive it, this is Elijah, who is to come.
15 ο εχων ωτα ακουειν ακουετω
15 El que tiene oídos para oir, oiga.
15 He who has ears to hear, let him hear.
16 τινι δε ομοιωσω την γενεαν ταυτην ομοια εστιν παιδιοισ εν αγοραισ καθημενοισ και προσφωνουσιν τοισ εταιροισ αυτων
16 Mas ¿á quién compararé esta generación? Es semejante á los muchachos que se sientan en las plazas, y dan voces á sus compañeros,
16 “But to what shall I compare this generation? It is like children sitting in the marketplaces, who call to their companions
17 και λεγουσιν ηυλησαμεν υμιν και ουκ ωρχησασθε εθρηνησαμεν υμιν και ουκ εκοψασθε
17 Y dicen: Os tañimos flauta, y no bailasteis; os endechamos, y no lamentasteis.
17 and say, ‘We played the flute for you, and you didn’t dance. We mourned for you, and you didn’t lament.’
18 ηλθεν γαρ ιωαννησ μητε εσθιων μητε πινων και λεγουσιν δαιμονιον εχει
18 Porque vino Juan, que ni comía ni bebía, y dicen: Demonio tiene.
18 For John came neither eating nor drinking, and they say, ‘He has a demon.’
19 ηλθεν ο υιοσ του ανθρωπου εσθιων και πινων και λεγουσιν ιδου ανθρωποσ φαγοσ και οινοποτησ τελωνων φιλοσ και αμαρτωλων και εδικαιωθη η σοφια απο των τεκνων αυτησ
19 Vino el Hijo del hombre, que come y bebe, y dicen: He aquí un hombre comilón, y bebedor de vino, amigo de publicanos y de pecadores. Mas la sabiduría es justificada por sus hijos.
19 The Son of Man came eating and drinking, and they say, ‘Behold, a gluttonous man and a drunkard, a friend of tax collectors and sinners!’ But wisdom is justified by her children.”
20 τοτε ηρξατο ονειδιζειν τασ πολεισ εν αισ εγενοντο αι πλεισται δυναμεισ αυτου οτι ου μετενοησαν
20 Entonces comenzó á reconvenir á las ciudades en las cuales habían sido hechas muy muchas de sus maravillas, porque no se habían arrepentido, [diciendo]:
20 Then he began to denounce the cities in which most of his mighty works had been done, because they didn’t repent.
21 ουαι σοι χοραζιν ουαι σοι βηθσαιδα οτι ει εν τυρω και σιδωνι εγενοντο αι δυναμεισ αι γενομεναι εν υμιν παλαι αν εν σακκω και σποδω μετενοησαν
21 ¡Ay de ti, Corazín! ¡Ay de ti, Bethsaida! porque si en Tiro y en Sidón fueran hechas las maravillas que han sido hechas en vosotras, en otro tiempo se hubieran arrepentido en saco y en ceniza.
21 “Woe to you, Chorazin! Woe to you, Bethsaida! For if the mighty works had been done in Tyre and Sidon which were done in you, they would have repented long ago in sackcloth and ashes.
22 πλην λεγω υμιν τυρω και σιδωνι ανεκτοτερον εσται εν ημερα κρισεωσ η υμιν
22 Por tanto os digo, [que] á Tiro y á Sidón será más tolerable [el castigo] en el día del juicio, que á vosotras.
22 But I tell you, it will be more tolerable for Tyre and Sidon on the day of judgment than for you.
23 και συ καπερναουμ η εωσ του ουρανου υψωθεισα εωσ αδου καταβιβασθηση οτι ει εν σοδομοισ εγενοντο αι δυναμεισ αι γενομεναι εν σοι εμειναν αν μεχρι τησ σημερον
23 Y tú, Capernaum, que eres levantada hasta el cielo, hasta los infiernos serás abajada; porque si en los de Sodoma fueran hechas las maravillas que han sido hechas en ti, hubieran quedado hasta el día de hoy.
23 You, Capernaum, who are exalted to heaven, you will go down to Hades. For if the mighty works had been done in Sodom which were done in you, it would have remained until today.
24 πλην λεγω υμιν οτι γη σοδομων ανεκτοτερον εσται εν ημερα κρισεωσ η σοι
24 Por tanto os digo, [que] á la tierra de los de Sodoma será más tolerable [el castigo] en el día del juicio, que á ti.
24 But I tell you that it will be more tolerable for the land of Sodom on the day of judgment, than for you.”
25 εν εκεινω τω καιρω αποκριθεισ ο ιησουσ ειπεν εξομολογουμαι σοι πατερ κυριε του ουρανου και τησ γησ οτι απεκρυψασ ταυτα απο σοφων και συνετων και απεκαλυψασ αυτα νηπιοισ
25 En aquel tiempo, respondiendo Jesús, dijo: Te alabo, Padre, Señor del cielo y de la tierra, que hayas escondido estas cosas de los sabios y de los entendidos, y las hayas revelado á los niños.
25 At that time, Jesus answered, “I thank you, Father, Lord of heaven and earth, that you hid these things from the wise and understanding, and revealed them to infants.
26 ναι ο πατηρ οτι ουτωσ εγενετο ευδοκια εμπροσθεν σου
26 Así, Padre, pues que así agradó en tus ojos.
26 Yes, Father, for so it was well-pleasing in your sight.
27 παντα μοι παρεδοθη υπο του πατροσ μου και ουδεισ επιγινωσκει τον υιον ει μη ο πατηρ ουδε τον πατερα τισ επιγινωσκει ει μη ο υιοσ και ω εαν βουληται ο υιοσ αποκαλυψαι
27 Todas las cosas me son entregadas de mi Padre: y nadie conoció al Hijo, sino el Padre; ni al Padre conoció alguno, sino el Hijo, y aquel á quien el Hijo [lo] quisiere revelar.
27 All things have been delivered to me by my Father. No one knows the Son, except the Father; neither does anyone know the Father, except the Son and he to whom the Son desires to reveal him.
28 δευτε προσ με παντεσ οι κοπιωντεσ και πεφορτισμενοι καγω αναπαυσω υμασ
28 Venid á mí todos los que estáis trabajados y cargados, que yo os haré descansar.
28 “Come to me, all you who labor and are heavily burdened, and I will give you rest.
29 αρατε τον ζυγον μου εφ υμασ και μαθετε απ εμου οτι πραοσ ειμι και ταπεινοσ τη καρδια και ευρησετε αναπαυσιν ταισ ψυχαισ υμων
29 Llevad mi yugo sobre vosotros, y aprended de mí, que soy manso y humilde de corazón; y hallaréis descanso para vuestras almas.
29 Take my yoke upon you and learn from me, for I am gentle and humble in heart; and you will find rest for your souls.
30 ο γαρ ζυγοσ μου χρηστοσ και το φορτιον μου ελαφρον εστιν
30 Porque mi yugo es fácil, y ligera mi carga.
30 For my yoke is easy, and my burden is light.”

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 lesson of the Holy Gospel has set before us a question touching John the Baptist. May the Lord assist me to resolve it to you, as He hath resolved it to us.

That is, after He had sent them, He proceeded to withdraw Himself, to give them room and opportunity to do what He had enjoined. For while He was present and healing, no one would be willing to approach them.

… the Christ, because the Jews knew not what the Father was, and what the Son, in like manner accused them; and Himself said, "No one knoweth the Father, but the Son; nor the Son, but the Father, and they to whom the Son revealeth Him." Now the Word of God is His Son, as we have before said.
And again, when He said, "Come unto Me all ye that labour and are heavy laden, and I will give you rest, and learn of Me," He announced the Father of truth.
"Because Thou hast hid these things from the wise and prudent, and hast revealed them unto babes;" that they "that labour and are heavy laden" might "come" unto Him and He might refresh them, because He is "meek and lowly in heart." "The meek will He guide in judgment; and the meek will He teach His way;" looking upon our …
