1 Now it came to pass on a sabbath, that he was going through the cornfields; and his disciples plucked the ears of corn, and did eat, 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 certain of the Pharisees said, Why do ye that which it is not lawful to do on the sabbath day?
2 Y algunos de los Fariseos les dijeron: ¿Por qué hacéis lo que no es lícito hacer en los sábados?
3 And Jesus answering them said, Have ye not read even this, what David did, when he was an hungred, he, and they that 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 did take and eat the shewbread, and gave also to them that were with him; which it is not lawful to eat save for 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 unto them, The Son of man is lord of the sabbath.
5 Y les decía: El Hijo del hombre es Señor aun del sábado.
6 And it came to pass on another sabbath, 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 watched him, whether he would heal on the sabbath; that they might find how 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 he said to the man that had his hand withered, Rise up, and stand forth in the midst. And he arose and stood forth.
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 And Jesus said unto them, I ask you, Is it lawful on the sabbath to do good, or to do harm? to save a 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 he looked round about on them all, and said unto him, Stretch forth thy hand. And he did [so]: and his hand was restored.
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 communed one with another what they might 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 these days, that he went out into the mountain to pray; and he continued all 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 he chose from them twelve, 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, whom he also named 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, and James [the son ]of Alphaeus, and Simon which was called the Zealot,
15 Mateo y Tomás, Jacobo [hijo] de Alfeo, y Simón el que se llama Celador,
16 and Judas [the son ]of James, and Judas Iscariot, which was the traitor;
16 Judas hermano de Jacobo, y Judas Iscariote, que también fué el traidor.
17 and he came down with them, and stood on a level place, and a great multitude of his disciples, and a great number of the people from all Judaea and Jerusalem, and the sea coast of Tyre and Sidon, which 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 they that were troubled with unclean spirits were healed.
18 Y los que habían sido atormentados de espíritus inmundos: y estaban curados.
19 And all the multitude sought to touch him: for power came forth from him, and healed [them ]all.
19 Y toda la gente procuraba tocarle; porque salía de él virtud, y sanaba á todos.
20 And he lifted up his eyes on his disciples, and 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 [are ]ye that hunger now: for ye shall be filled. Blessed [are ]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 their company], and reproach you, and cast out your name as evil, 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 heaven: for in the same manner did their fathers unto 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 unto you that are rich! for ye have received your consolation.
24 Mas ¡ay de vosotros, ricos! porque tenéis vuestro consuelo.
25 Woe unto you, ye that are full now! for ye shall hunger. Woe [unto you], ye that 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 [unto you], when all men shall speak well of you! for in the same 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 I say unto you which hear, Love your enemies, do good to them that hate you,
27 Mas á vosotros los que oís, digo: Amad á vuestros enemigos, haced bien á los que os aborrecen;
28 bless them that curse you, pray for them that despitefully use you.
28 Bendecid á los que os maldicen, y orad por los que os calumnian.
29 To him that smiteth thee on the [one ]cheek offer also the other; and from him that taketh away thy cloke withhold not thy 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 Give to every one that asketh thee; and of him that taketh away thy goods ask them not again.
30 Y á cualquiera que te pidiere, da; y al que tomare lo que es tuyo, no vuelvas á pedir.
31 And as ye would that men should do to you, do ye also to them likewise.
31 Y como queréis que os hagan los hombres, así hacedles también vosotros:
32 And if ye love them that love you, what thank have ye? 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 them that do good to you, what thank have ye? 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 them of whom ye hope to receive, what thank have ye? even sinners lend to sinners, to receive again as much.
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 [them ]good, and lend, never despairing; and your reward shall be great, and ye shall be sons of the Most High: for he is kind toward the unthankful and evil.
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 merciful, even as your Father is merciful.
36 Sed pues misericordiosos, como también vuestro Padre es misericordioso.
37 And judge not, and ye shall not be judged: and condemn not, and ye shall not be condemned: release, and ye shall be released:
37 No juzguéis, y no seréis juzgados: no condenéis, y no seréis condenados: perdonad, y seréis perdonados.
38 give, and it shall be given unto you; good measure, pressed down, shaken together, running over, shall they give into your bosom. For with what measure 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 spake also a parable unto them, Can the blind guide the blind? shall they not both fall into a pit?
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 master: but every one when he is perfected shall be as his master.
40 El discípulo no es sobre su maestro; mas cualquiera que fuere como el maestro, será perfecto.
41 And why beholdest thou the mote that is in thy brother’s eye, but considerest not the beam that 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, let me cast out the mote that is in thine eye, when thou thyself beholdest not the beam that is in thine own eye? Thou hypocrite, cast out first the beam out of thine own eye, and then shalt thou see clearly to cast out the mote that is in thy brother’s eye.
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 that bringeth forth corrupt fruit; nor again a corrupt tree that bringeth forth good fruit.
43 Porque no es buen árbol el que da malos frutos; ni árbol malo el que da buen fruto.
44 For each tree is known by its own fruit. For of thorns men do not gather figs, nor of a bramble bush gather they grapes.
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 bringeth forth that which is good; and the evil [man ]out of the evil [treasure ]bringeth forth that which is evil: for out of the abundance of the heart his mouth speaketh.
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 which I say?
46 ¿Por qué me llamáis, Señor, Señor, y no hacéis lo que digo?
47 Every one that cometh unto me, and heareth my words, and doeth 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 digged and went deep, and laid a foundation upon the rock: and when a flood arose, the stream brake against that house, and could not shake it: because it had been well builded.
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 But he that heareth, and doeth not, is like a man that built a house upon the earth without a foundation; against which the stream brake, and straightway it fell in; and the ruin 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.
