WEB World English Bible (Classic, with Deuterocanon)
1 Una vez más Jesús fue a la sinagoga. Allí estaba un hombre que tenía una mano lisiada.
1 He entered again into the synagogue, and there was a man there whose hand was withered.
2 Algunos de los que estaban allí estaban observando si Jesús lo sanaría en sábado, pues estaban buscando un motivo para acusarlo de quebrantar la ley.
2 They watched him, whether he would heal him on the Sabbath day, that they might accuse him.
3 Jesús le dijo al hombre con la mano lisiada: “Ven y párate aquí frente a todos”.
3 He said to the man whose hand was withered, “Stand up.”
4 “¿Es lícito hacer el bien en sábado, o hacer el mal? ¿Debemos salvar vidas o matar?” les preguntó. Pero ellos no dijeron ni una palabra.
4 He said to them, “Is it lawful on the Sabbath day to do good or to do harm? To save a life or to kill?” But they were silent.
5 Jesús los miró con enojo, muy molesto por la dureza de sus corazones. Entonces le dijo al hombre: “Extiende tu mano”. Y el hombre extendió su mano, y le fue sanada.
5 When he had looked around at them with anger, being grieved at the hardening of their hearts, he said to the man, “Stretch out your hand.” He stretched it out, and his hand was restored as healthy as the other.
6 Los fariseos salieron, e inmediatamente comenzaron a conspirar con los aliados de Herodes sobre cómo podían matar a Jesús.
6 The Pharisees went out, and immediately conspired with the Herodians against him, how they might destroy him.
7 Mientras tanto, Jesús regresó al Mar, y una gran multitud lo seguía. Había gente de Galilea,
7 Jesus withdrew to the sea with his disciples; and a great multitude followed him from Galilee, from Judea,
8 de Judea, de Idumea, de Transjordania, y de las regiones de Tiro y Sidón. Muchas personas venían a verlo porque habían escuchado todo lo que él hacía.
8 from Jerusalem, from Idumaea, beyond the Jordan, and those from around Tyre and Sidon. A great multitude, hearing what great things he did, came to him.
9 Jesús les dijo a sus discípulos que tuvieran una embarcación pequeña en caso de que la multitud comenzara a aglomerarse sobre él,
9 He spoke to his disciples that a little boat should stay near him because of the crowd, so that they wouldn’t press on him.
10 porque había sanado a tantas personas que todos los enfermos seguían tratando de amontonarse y empujarse para poder tocarlo.
10 For he had healed many, so that as many as had diseases pressed on him that they might touch him.
11 Cada vez que los espíritus malos lo veian, caían frente a él y comenzaban a gritar: “¡Tú eres el Hijo de Dios!”
11 The unclean spirits, whenever they saw him, fell down before him and cried, “You are the Son of God!”
12 Pero Jesús les ordenaba que no revelasen quién era él.
12 He sternly warned them that they should not make him known.
13 Entonces Jesús se fue al monte. Llamó a los que quería que lo acompañaran, y ellos fueron con él.
13 He went up into the mountain and called to himself those whom he wanted, and they went to him.
14 Eligió a doce para que estuvieran con él, y los llamó apóstoles. Ellos estarían con él, y él los enviaría a anunciar la buena noticia,
14 He appointed twelve, that they might be with him, and that he might send them out to preach
15 dándoles autoridad para expulsar demonios.
15 and to have authority to heal sicknesses and to cast out demons:
16 Estos son los doce que él escogió: Simón (a quien llamó Pedro),
16 Simon (to whom he gave the name Peter);
17 Santiago, hijo de Zebedeo y su hermano Juan (a quienes llamó Boanerges, que quiere decir “hijos del trueno”),
17 James the son of Zebedee; and John, the brother of James, (whom he called Boanerges, which means, Sons of Thunder);
18 Andrés, Felipe, Bartolomé, Mateo, Tomás, Santiago hijo de Alfeo, Tadeo, Simón el revolucionario,
18 Andrew; Philip; Bartholomew; Matthew; Thomas; James, the son of Alphaeus; Thaddaeus; Simon the Zealot;
19 y Judas Iscariote (quien lo entregó).
19 and Judas Iscariot, who also betrayed him. Then he came into a house.
20 Jesús se fue a casa, pero la gran multitud se volvió a reunir y él y sus discípulos ni siquiera tenían tiempo para comer.
20 The multitude came together again, so that they could not so much as eat bread.
21 Cuando la familia de Jesús escuchó acerca de esto, fueron a buscarlo para llevárselo, porque decían: “¡se ha vuelto loco!”
21 When his friends heard it, they went out to seize him; for they said, “He is insane.”
22 Pero los líderes religiosos de Jerusalén, decían: “¡Él está poseído por Belcebú! ¡Es en nombre del príncipe de los demonios que los expulsa!”
22 The scribes who came down from Jerusalem said, “He has Beelzebul,” and, “By the prince of the demons he casts out the demons.”
23 Pero Jesús los llamó para que se acercaran a él. Y a través de ilustraciones les preguntó: “¿Cómo puede Satanás expulsar a Satanás?
23 He summoned them and said to them in parables, “How can Satan cast out Satan?
24 Un reino que pelea contra sí mismo no puede mantenerse.
24 If a kingdom is divided against itself, that kingdom cannot stand.
25 Una casa dividida está destinada a la destrucción.
25 If a house is divided against itself, that house cannot stand.
26 Si Satanás está dividido y pelea contra sí mismo, no durará y pronto llegará a su fin.
26 If Satan has risen up against himself, and is divided, he can’t stand, but has an end.
27 Sin duda, si alguien entra a robar a la casa de un hombre fuerte y trata de llevarse sus pertenencias, no lo logrará a menos que ate al hombre fuerte primero”.
27 But no one can enter into the house of the strong man to plunder unless he first binds the strong man; then he will plunder his house.
28 “Les digo la verdad: los pecados y las blasfemias pueden ser perdonados,
28 “Most certainly I tell you, all sins of the descendants of man will be forgiven, including their blasphemies with which they may blaspheme;
29 pero si alguno blasfema rechazando al Espíritu Santo, no podrá ser perdonado, porque es culpable de un pecado eterno”.
29 but whoever may blaspheme against the Holy Spirit never has forgiveness, but is subject to eternal condemnation.”
30 (Jesús dijo esto porque ellos decían: “Él tiene un espíritu maligno”).
30 —because they said, “He has an unclean spirit.”
31 Entonces la madre de Jesús y sus hermanos llegaron. Lo esperaron afuera y mandaron a alguien para que le pidiera que saliera.
31 His mother and his brothers came, and standing outside, they sent to him, calling him.
32 La multitud que estaba sentada afuera le dijo: “Tu madre y tus hermanos están allá afuera preguntando por ti”.
32 A multitude was sitting around him, and they told him, “Behold, your mother, your brothers, and your sisters are outside looking for you.”
33 “¿Quién es mi madre? ¿Quiénes son mis hermanos?” respondió él.
33 He answered them, “Who are my mother and my brothers?”
34 Y mirando alrededor a todos los que estaban sentados, les dijo: “¡Aquí está mi madre! ¡Aquí están mis hermanos!
34 Looking around at those who sat around him, he said, “Behold, my mother and my brothers!
35 Todo aquél que hace la voluntad de Dios, ese es mi hermano, mi hermana y mi madre”.
35 For whoever does the will of God is my brother, my sister, and mother.”

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).

  1. Quotes verse 3:27 Irenaeus of Lyons, Against Heresies (Book V, Chapter XIX)

    For when Satan is bound, man is set free; since "none can enter a strong man's house and spoil his goods, unless he first bind the strong man himself." The Lord therefore exposes him as speaking contrary to the word of that God who made all things, and subdues him by means of the commandment.

  2. Quotes verse 3:27 Augustine of Hippo, The City of God (Book XX, Chapters 6–7)

    The Lord Jesus Christ Himself says, "No man can enter into a strong man's house, and spoil his goods, except he first bind the strong man" --meaning by the strong man the devil, because he had power to take captive the human race; and meaning by his goods which he was to take, those who had been held by the …

  3. Quotes verse 3:24 John Chrysostom, Homilies on the Gospel of Matthew (Homily I)

    Whereas, if they were in discord, neither could this have been pointed out, and the doctrine itself had long since been brought to nought: "for every kingdom," saith He, "divided against itself shall not stand." But now even in this shines forth the might of the Spirit, namely, in that it prevailed on these men, engaged as they were in …

    He dared too to say that he was the Paraclete, though it is written, But whosoever shall blaspheme against the Holy Ghost, hath no forgiveness.

  5. Quotes verse 3:28 Augustine of Hippo, Sermons on Selected Lessons of the New Testament (Sermon XXI)

    But forasmuch as it is first said, "All manner of sin and blasphemy shall be forgiven unto men;" which in another Evangelist is also thus expressed, "All sins shall be forgiven unto the sons of men, and blasphemies wherewithsoever they shall blaspheme;" without doubt, that blasphemy also which is spoken against the Father is included in that general expression; and …
