PT1904 Patriarchal Text 1904 (accented, eBible edition)
1 Jesús les dijo: “Les digo la verdad: algunos de los que están aquí no morirán antes de que vean venir al reino de Dios con poder”.
1 He said to them, “Most certainly I tell you, there are some standing here who will in no way taste death until they see God’s Kingdom come with power.”
1 Καὶ ἔλεγεν αὐτοῖς· ἀμὴν λέγω ὑμῖν ὅτι εἰσί τινες τῶν ὧδε ἑστηκότων, οἵτινες οὐ μὴ γεύσωνται θανάτου ἕως ἂν ἴδωσι τὴν βασιλείαν τοῦ Θεοῦ ἐληλυθυῖαν ἐν δυνάμει.
2 Seis días más tarde, Jesús llevó consigo a Pedro, Santiago y Juan, y los condujo a lo alto de una montaña para estar allí a solas. Su apariencia cambió por completo.
2 After six days Jesus took with him Peter, James, and John, and brought them up onto a high mountain privately by themselves, and he was changed into another form in front of them.
2 Καὶ μεθ᾽ ἡμέρας ἓξ παραλαμβάνει ὁ Ἰησοῦς τὸν Πέτρον καὶ [τὸν] Ἰάκωβον καὶ [τὸν] Ἰωάννην καὶ ἀναφέρει αὐτοὺς εἰς ὄρος ὑψηλὸν κατ᾽ ἰδίαν μόνους· καὶ μετεμορφώθη ἔμπροσθεν αὐτῶν,
3 Su ropa brillaba de lo blanca que era, más blanca que lo que cualquier persona sobre la tierra pudiera emblanquecer.
3 His clothing became glistening, exceedingly white, like snow, such as no launderer on earth can whiten them.
3 καὶ τὰ ἱμάτια αὐτοῦ ἐγένετο στίλβοντα, λευκὰ λίαν ὡς χιών, οἷα γναφεὺς ἐπὶ τῆς γῆς οὐ δύναται οὕτω λευκᾶναι.
4 Entonces Elías y Moisés se aparecieron frente a ellos tambiény hablaban con Jesús.
4 Elijah and Moses appeared to them, and they were talking with Jesus.
4 καὶ ὤφθη αὐτοῖς Ἠλίας σὺν Μωϋσεῖ, καὶ ἦσαν συλλαλοῦντες τῷ Ἰησοῦ. καὶ ἀποκριθεὶς ὁ Πέτρος λέγει τῷ Ἰησοῦ·
5 Pedro alzó la voz y dijo: “¡Rabí, para nosotros es maravilloso estar aquí! Deberíamos preparar tres albergues. Cada uno de nosotros haría uno: para ti, para Moisés y para Elías”.
5 Peter answered Jesus, “Rabbi, it is good for us to be here. Let’s make three tents: one for you, one for Moses, and one for Elijah.”
5 ῥαββί, καλόν ἐστιν ἡμᾶς ὧδε εἶναι· καὶ ποιήσωμεν σκηνὰς τρεῖς, σοὶ μίαν καὶ Μωϋσεῖ μίαν καὶ Ἠλίᾳ μίαν.
6 (¡En realidad, él no sabía qué decir porque los tres discípulos estaban muy asustados!)
6 For he didn’t know what to say, for they were very afraid.
6 οὐ γὰρ ᾔδει τί λαλήσῃ· ἦσαν γὰρ ἔκφοβοι.
7 Entonces una nube los cubrió, y de la nube salió una voz que decía: “Este es mi Hijo, al que amo. Escúchenlo”.
7 A cloud came, overshadowing them, and a voice came out of the cloud, “This is my beloved Son. Listen to him.”
7 καὶ ἐγένετο νεφέλη ἐπισκιάζουσα αὐτοῖς, καὶ ἦλθε φωνὴ ἐκ τῆς νεφέλης λέγουσα· οὗτός ἐστιν ὁ υἱός μου ὁ ἀγαπητός· αὐτοῦ ἀκούετε.
8 De repente, mientras los discípulos miraban, ya no había nadie. Solo Jesús estaba con ellos.
8 Suddenly looking around, they saw no one with them any more, except Jesus only.
8 καὶ ἐξάπινα περιβλεψάμενοι οὐκέτι οὐδένα εἶδον, ἀλλὰ τὸν Ἰησοῦν μόνον μεθ᾽ ἑαυτῶν.
9 Mientras descendían de la montaña, Jesús les dio instrucciones de no contarle a nadie lo que habían visto, hasta que el Hijo del hombre se hubiese levantado de entre los muertos.
9 As they were coming down from the mountain, he commanded them that they should tell no one what things they had seen, until after the Son of Man had risen from the dead.
9 καταβαινόντων δὲ αὐτῶν ἀπὸ τοῦ ὄρους διεστείλατο αὐτοῖς ἵνα μηδενὶ διηγήσωνται ἃ εἶδον, εἰ μὴ ὅταν ὁ υἱὸς τοῦ ἀνθρώπου ἐκ νεκρῶν ἀναστῇ.
10 Ellos guardaron esto para sí, pero discutían sobre qué significaba eso de levantarse de entre los muertos.
10 They kept this saying to themselves, questioning what the “rising from the dead” meant.
10 καὶ τὸν λόγον ἐκράτησαν, πρὸς ἑαυτοὺς συζητοῦντες τί ἐστι τὸ ἐκ νεκρῶν ἀναστῆναι.
11 “¿Por qué los maestros religiosos afirman que Elías tiene que venir primero?” le preguntaron.
11 They asked him, saying, “Why do the scribes say that Elijah must come first?”
11 καὶ ἐπηρώτων αὐτὸν λέγοντες, ὅτι λέγουσιν οἱ γραμματεῖς ὅτι Ἠλίαν δεῖ ἐλθεῖν πρῶτον.
12 “Es cierto que Elías viene primero para prepararlo todo”, respondió Jesús. “Pero, ¿por qué, entonces, dicen las Escrituras que el Hijo del hombre tiene que sufrir mucho y ser tratado con deprecio?
12 He said to them, “Elijah indeed comes first, and restores all things. How is it written about the Son of Man, that he should suffer many things and be despised?
12 ὁ δὲ ἀποκριθεὶς εἶπεν αὐτοῖς· Ἠλίας μὲν ἐλθὼν πρῶτον ἀποκαθιστᾷ πάντα· καὶ πῶς γέγραπται ἐπὶ τὸν υἱὸν τοῦ ἀνθρώπου ἵνα πολλὰ πάθῃ καὶ ἐξουδενωθῇ;
13 Sin embargo, les digo que Elías vino, y ellos lo maltrataron de todas las formas que quisieron, tal como las Escrituras dicen que lo harían”.
13 But I tell you that Elijah has come, and they have also done to him whatever they wanted to, even as it is written about him.”
13 ἀλλὰ λέγω ὑμῖν ὅτι καὶ Ἠλίας ἐλήλυθε, καὶ ἐποίησαν αὐτῷ ὅσα ἠθέλησαν, καθὼς γέγραπται ἐπ᾽ αὐτόν.
14 Cuando regresaron donde estaban los demás discípulos, vieron que estaban rodeados de una gran multitud y había allí algunos maestros religiosos discutiendo con ellos.
14 Coming to the disciples, he saw a great multitude around them, and scribes questioning them.
14 Καὶ ἐλθὼν πρὸς τοὺς μαθητὰς εἶδεν ὄχλον πολὺν περὶ αὐτούς, καὶ γραμματεῖς συζητοῦντας αὐτοῖς.
15 Pero tan pronto como la multitud vio a Jesús, se asombraron, y corrieron a recibirlo.
15 Immediately all the multitude, when they saw him, were greatly amazed, and running to him, greeted him.
15 καὶ εὐθέως πᾶς ὁ ὄχλος ἰδόντες αὐτὸν ἐξεθαμβήθησαν, καὶ προστρέχοντες ἠσπάζοντο αὐτόν.
16 “¿Sobre qué están discutiendo ustedes con ellos?” les preguntó Jesús.
16 He asked the scribes, “What are you asking them?”
16 καὶ ἐπηρώτησε τοὺς γραμματεῖς· τί συζητεῖτε πρὸς ἑαυτούς;
17 Una de las personas de la multitud respondió: “Maestro, te traje a mi hijo. Él tiene un espíritu malo que no lo deja hablar.
17 One of the multitude answered, “Teacher, I brought to you my son, who has a mute spirit;
17 καὶ ἀποκριθεὶς εἷς ἐκ τοῦ ὄχλου εἶπε· διδάσκαλε, ἤνεγκα τὸν υἱόν μου πρός σε, ἔχοντα πνεῦμα ἄλαλον.
18 Cada vez que lo ataca, lo tira al suelo, y lo hace botar espuma por la boca, cruje sus dientes y su cuerpo se pone rígido. Le pedí a tus discípulos que sacaran este demonio de él, pero ellos no pudieron hacerlo”.
18 and wherever it seizes him, it throws him down; and he foams at the mouth, grinds his teeth, and becomes rigid. I asked your disciples to cast it out, and they weren’t able.”
18 καὶ ὅπου ἂν αὐτὸν καταλάβῃ, ῥήσσει αὐτόν, καὶ ἀφρίζει καὶ τρίζει τοὺς ὀδόντας αὐτοῦ, καὶ ξηραίνεται· καὶ εἶπον τοῖς μαθηταῖς σου ἵνα αὐτὸ ἐκβάλωσι, καὶ οὐκ ἴσχυσαν.
19 “¡Pueblo incrédulo!” respondió Jesús. “¿Por cuánto tiempo debo permanecer aquí con ustedes? ¿Por cuánto tiempo tengo que soportarlos? ¡Tráiganmelo aquí!”
19 He answered him, “Unbelieving generation, how long shall I be with you? How long shall I bear with you? Bring him to me.”
19 ὁ δὲ ἀποκριθεὶς αὐτῷ λέγει· ὦ γενεὰ ἄπιστος, ἕως πότε πρὸς ὑμᾶς ἔσομαι; ἕως πότε ἀνέξομαι ὑμῶν; φέρετε αὐτὸν πρός με. καὶ ἤνεγκαν αὐτὸν πρὸς αὐτόν.
20 Así que ellos lo trajeron donde Jesús. Cuando el espíritu malo vio a Jesús, de inmediato le produjo convulsiones al joven y lo lanzó al suelo, donde este comenzó a rodar de un lado al otro y a botar espuma por la boca.
20 They brought him to him, and when he saw him, immediately the spirit convulsed him and he fell on the ground, wallowing and foaming at the mouth.
20 καὶ ἰδὼν αὐτὸν εὐθέως τὸ πνεῦμα ἐσπάραξεν αὐτόν, καὶ πεσὼν ἐπὶ τῆς γῆς ἐκυλίετο ἀφρίζων.
21 “¿Por cuánto tiempo ha tenido esto?” le preguntó Jesús al padre del joven. “Desde que era pequeño”, respondió el padre.
21 He asked his father, “How long has it been since this has been happening to him?” He said, “From childhood.
21 καὶ ἐπηρώτησε τὸν πατέρα αὐτοῦ· πόσος χρόνος ἐστὶν ὡς τοῦτο γέγονεν αὐτῷ; ὁ δὲ εἶπε· παιδιόθεν.
22 “A menudo lo lanza al fuego para quemarlo y matarlo, o lo lanza al agua para ahogarlo. Por favor, ten misericordia de nosotros y ayúdanos, si puedes”.
22 Often it has cast him both into the fire and into the water to destroy him. But if you can do anything, have compassion on us and help us.”
22 καὶ πολλάκις αὐτὸν καὶ εἰς πῦρ ἔβαλε καὶ εἰς ὕδατα, ἵνα ἀπολέσῃ αὐτόν· ἀλλ᾽ εἴ τι δύνασαι, βοήθησον ἡμῖν σπλαγχνισθεὶς ἐφ᾽ ἡμᾶς.
23 “¿Por qué dices, ‘si puedes?’” respondió Jesús. “¡Todo es posible para el que cree!”
23 Jesus said to him, “If you can believe, all things are possible to him who believes.”
23 ὁ δὲ Ἰησοῦς εἶπεν αὐτῷ τὸ εἰ δύνασαι πιστεῦσαι, πάντα δυνατὰ τῷ πιστεύοντι.
24 “Yo creo en ti”, gritó el hombre de inmediato. “Ayúdame a no desconfiar de ti”.
24 Immediately the father of the child cried out with tears, “I believe. Help my unbelief!”
24 καὶ εὐθέως κράξας ὁ πατὴρ τοῦ παιδίου μετὰ δακρύων ἔλεγε· πιστεύω, κύριε· βοήθει μου τῇ ἀπιστίᾳ.
25 Jesús, viendo que la multitud se aproximaba más, le dio orden al espíritu malo: “Espíritu que causa sordera y mudez, te ordeno que salgas de él y no regreses más”.
25 When Jesus saw that a multitude came running together, he rebuked the unclean spirit, saying to him, “You mute and deaf spirit, I command you, come out of him, and never enter him again!”
25 ἰδὼν δὲ ὁ Ἰησοῦς ὅτι ἐπισυντρέχει ὄχλος, ἐπετίμησε τῷ πνεύματι τῷ ἀκαθάρτῳ λέγων αὐτῷ· τὸ πνεῦμα τὸ ἄλαλον καὶ κωφόν, ἐγώ σοι ἐπιτάσσω, ἔξελθε ἐξ αὐτοῦ καὶ μηκέτι εἰσέλθῃς εἰς αὐτόν.
26 El espíritu gritó y lanzó al joven al piso, causándole graves convulsiones. Entonces salió del joven y lo dejó casi muerto, al punto que muchas de las personas decían: “Está muerto”.
26 After crying out and convulsing him greatly, it came out of him. The boy became like one dead, so much that most of them said, “He is dead.”
26 καὶ κράξαν καὶ πολλὰ σπαράξαν αὐτὸν ἐξῆλθε, καὶ ἐγένετο ὡσεὶ νεκρός, ὥστε πολλοὺς λέγειν ὅτι ἀπέθανεν.
27 Pero Jesús tomó al joven por la mano y lo ayudó a levantarse, y éste se puso en pie.
27 But Jesus took him by the hand and raised him up; and he arose.
27 ὁ δὲ Ἰησοῦς κρατήσας αὐτὸν τῆς χειρὸς ἤγειρεν αὐτόν, καὶ ἀνέστη.
28 Después, cuando Jesús estaba en casa, sus discípulos le preguntaron en privado: “¿Por qué nosotros no pudimos sacar al espíritu?”
28 When he had come into the house, his disciples asked him privately, “Why couldn’t we cast it out?”
28 Καὶ εἰσελθόντα αὐτὸν εἰς οἶκον οἱ μαθηταὶ αὐτοῦ ἐπηρώτων αὐτὸν κατ᾽ ἰδίαν, ὅτι ἡμεῖς οὐκ ἠδυνήθημεν ἐκβαλεῖν αὐτό.
29 “Este tipo de espíritu no puede sacarse si no es con oración”, les dijo Jesús.
29 He said to them, “This kind can come out by nothing but by prayer and fasting.”
29 καὶ εἶπεν αὐτοῖς· τοῦτο τὸ γένος ἐν οὐδενὶ δύναται ἐξελθεῖν εἰ μὴ ἐν προσευχῇ καὶ νηστείᾳ.
30 Entonces se marcharon y pasaron por Galilea. Jesús no quería que nadie supiera donde estaba él
30 They went out from there and passed through Galilee. He didn’t want anyone to know it,
30 Καὶ ἐκεῖθεν ἐξελθόντες παρεπορεύοντο διὰ τῆς Γαλιλαίας, καὶ οὐκ ἤθελεν ἵνα τις γνῷ·
31 porque estaba enseñándole a sus discípulos. “El Hijo del hombre será entregado a las autoridades humanas”, les dijo. “Ellos lo matarán, pero tres días después se levantará de nuevo”.
31 for he was teaching his disciples, and said to them, “The Son of Man is being handed over to the hands of men, and they will kill him; and when he is killed, on the third day he will rise again.”
31 ἐδίδασκε γὰρ τοὺς μαθητὰς αὐτοῦ καὶ ἔλεγεν αὐτοῖς ὅτι ὁ υἱὸς τοῦ ἀνθρώπου παραδίδοται εἰς χεῖρας ἀνθρώπων, καὶ ἀποκτενοῦσιν αὐτόν, καὶ ἀποκτανθεὶς τῇ τρίτῃ ἡμέρᾳ ἀναστήσεται.
32 Pero ellos no entendieron lo que él quiso decir y tenían mucho miedo como para preguntarle al respecto.
32 But they didn’t understand the saying, and were afraid to ask him.
32 οἱ δὲ ἠγνόουν τὸ ῥῆμα, καὶ ἐφοβοῦντο αὐτὸν ἐπερωτῆσαι.
33 Llegaron a Capernaum, y cuando estaban dentro de la casa donde se hospedaban, Jesús les preguntó: “¿De qué venían hablando durante el camino?”
33 He came to Capernaum, and when he was in the house he asked them, “What were you arguing among yourselves on the way?”
33 Καὶ ἦλθεν εἰς Καπερναούμ· καὶ ἐν τῇ οἰκίᾳ γενόμενος ἐπηρώτα αὐτούς· τί ἐν τῇ ὁδῷ πρὸς ἑαυτοὺς διελογίζεσθε;
34 Pero ellos no dijeron nada porque habían estado discutiendo sobre quién de ellos era el más importante.
34 But they were silent, for they had disputed with one another on the way about who was the greatest.
34 οἱ δὲ ἐσιώπων· πρὸς ἀλλήλους γὰρ διελέχθησαν ἐν τῇ ὁδῷ τίς μείζων.
35 Entonces Jesús se sentó y reunió a sus discípulos. “Si alguno quiere ser el primero, tendrá que ser el último, el siervo de todos los demás”, les dijo.
35 He sat down and called the twelve; and he said to them, “If any man wants to be first, he shall be last of all, and servant of all.”
35 καὶ καθίσας ἐφώνησε τοὺς δώδεκα καὶ λέγει αὐτοῖς· εἴ τις θέλει πρῶτος εἶναι, ἔσται πάντων ἔσχατος καὶ πάντων διάκονος.
36 Luego tomó a un niño pequeño y lo hizo sentarse justo en medio de ellos. Entonces tomó al niño y lo abrazó, y les dijo:
36 He took a little child and set him in the middle of them. Taking him in his arms, he said to them,
36 καὶ λαβὼν παιδίον ἔστησεν αὐτὸ ἐν μέσῳ αὐτῶν, καὶ ἐναγκαλισάμενος αὐτὸ εἶπεν αὐτοῖς·
37 “Cualquiera que recibe a un niño como este en mi nombre, me recibe a mí, y cualquiera que me recibe a mí, no me recibe a mí, sino al que me envió”.
37 “Whoever receives one such little child in my name receives me; and whoever receives me, doesn’t receive me, but him who sent me.”
37 ὃς ἐὰν ἓν τῶν τοιούτων παιδίων δέξηται ἐπὶ τῷ ὀνόματί μου, ἐμὲ δέχεται· καὶ ὃς ἐὰν ἐμὲ δέξηται, οὐκ ἐμὲ δέχεται, ἀλλὰ τὸν ἀποστείλαντά με.
38 Juan le dijo a Jesús: “Maestro, vimos a alguien sacando demonios en tu nombre. Nosotros tratamos de detenerlo, porque no era uno de nosotros”.
38 John said to him, “Teacher, we saw someone who doesn’t follow us casting out demons in your name; and we forbade him, because he doesn’t follow us.”
38 Ἀπεκρίθη αὐτῷ ὁ Ἰωάννης λέγων· διδάσκαλε, εἴδομέν τινα ἐν τῷ ὀνόματί σου ἐκβάλλοντα δαιμόνια, ὃς οὐκ ἀκολουθεῖ ἡμῖν, καὶ ἐκωλύσαμεν αὐτόν, ὅτι οὐκ ἀκολουθεῖ ἡμῖν.
39 “No lo detengan”, respondió Jesús. “Porque ninguno que esté haciendo milagros en mi nombre, puede maldecir al mismo tiempo.
39 But Jesus said, “Don’t forbid him, for there is no one who will do a mighty work in my name and be able quickly to speak evil of me.
39 ὁ δὲ Ἰησοῦς εἶπε· μὴ κωλύετε αὐτόν· οὐδεὶς γάρ ἐστιν ὃς ποιήσει δύναμιν ἐπὶ τῷ ὀνόματί μου καὶ δυνήσεται ταχὺ κακολογῆσαί με.
40 El que no está contra nosotros, está a favor de nosotros.
40 For whoever is not against us is on our side.
40 ὃς γὰρ οὐκ ἔστι καθ᾽ ὑμῶν, ὑπὲρ ὑμῶν ἐστιν.
41 Todo el que les brinde un vaso de agua a ustedes en mi nombre, porque ustedes pertenecen a Cristo, créanme que no perderá su recompensa.
41 For whoever will give you a cup of water to drink in my name because you are Christ’s, most certainly I tell you, he will in no way lose his reward.
41 ὃς γὰρ ἂν ποτίσῃ ὑμᾶς ποτήριον ὕδατος ἐν τῷ ὀνόματί μου, ὅτι Χριστοῦ ἐστε, ἀμὴν λέγω ὑμῖν, οὐ μὴ ἀπολέσῃ τὸν μισθὸν αὐτοῦ.
42 “Pero si cualquiera conduce a uno de estos pequeños que creen en mí, a pecar, mejor sería que fuera lanzado al mar con una piedra de molino atada en su cuello.
42 “Whoever will cause one of these little ones who believe in me to stumble, it would be better for him if he were thrown into the sea with a millstone hung around his neck.
42 Καὶ ὃς ἂν σκανδαλίσῃ ἕνα τῶν μικρῶν τούτων τῶν πιστευόντων εἰς ἐμέ, καλόν ἐστιν αὐτῷ μᾶλλον εἰ περίκειται λίθος μυλικὸς περὶ τὸν τράχηλον αὐτοῦ καὶ βέβληται εἰς τὴν θάλασσαν.
43 Si una mano te hace pecar, ¡córtala! Es mejor entrar a la vida eterna como un lisiado que ir con ambas manos al Gehena, al fuego que no puede apagarse.
43 If your hand causes you to stumble, cut it off. It is better for you to enter into life maimed, rather than having your two hands to go into Gehenna, into the unquenchable fire,
43 καὶ ἐὰν σκανδαλίζῃ σε ἡ χείρ σου, ἀπόκοψον αὐτήν· καλὸν σοί ἐστι κυλλὸν εἰς τὴν ζωὴν εἰσελθεῖν, ἢ τὰς δύο χεῖρας ἔχοντα ἀπελθεῖν εἰς [τὴν] γέενναν, εἰς τὸ πῦρ τὸ ἄσβεστον,
44 Not in this translation
44 ‘where their worm doesn’t die, and the fire is not quenched.’
44 ὅπου ὁ σκώληξ αὐτῶν οὐ τελευτᾷ καὶ τὸ πῦρ οὐ σβέννυται.
45 Si el pie te hace pecar, ¡córtalo! Es mejor entrar a la vida eterna cojo, que teniendo ambos pies y aun así ser lanzado al Gehena.
45 If your foot causes you to stumble, cut it off. It is better for you to enter into life lame, rather than having your two feet to be cast into Gehenna, into the fire that will never be quenched—
45 καὶ ἐὰν ὁ πούς σου σκανδαλίζῃ σε, ἀπόκοψον αὐτόν· καλὸν σοί ἐστιν εἰσελθεῖν εἰς τὴν ζωὴν χωλόν, ἢ [τοὺς] δύο πόδας ἔχοντα βληθῆναι εἰς τὴν γέενναν, εἰς τὸ πῦρ τὸ ἄσβεστον,
46 Not in this translation
46 ‘where their worm doesn’t die, and the fire is not quenched.’
46 ὅπου ὁ σκώληξ αὐτῶν οὐ τελευτᾷ καὶ τὸ πῦρ οὐ σβέννυται.
47 Si el ojo te hace pecar, ¡sácalo! Es mejor entrar al reino de Dios con un solo ojo que ser lanzado al Gehena con ambos ojos,
47 If your eye causes you to stumble, throw it out. It is better for you to enter into God’s Kingdom with one eye, rather than having two eyes to be cast into the Gehenna of fire,
47 καὶ ἐὰν ὁ ὀφθαλμός σου σκανδαλίζῃ σε, ἔκβαλε αὐτόν· καλὸν σοί ἐστι μονόφθαλμον εἰσελθεῖν εἰς τὴν βασιλείαν τοῦ Θεοῦ, ἢ τοὺς δύο ὀφθαλμοὺς ἔχοντα ἀπελθεῖν εἰς τὴν γέενναν τοῦ πυρός,
48 donde los gusanos no mueren y el fuego no se apaga.
48 ‘where their worm doesn’t die, and the fire is not quenched.’
48 ὅπου ὁ σκώληξ αὐτῶν οὐ τελευτᾷ καὶ τὸ πῦρ οὐ σβέννυται.
49 Todos serán ‘salados’ con fuego.
49 For everyone will be salted with fire, and every sacrifice will be seasoned with salt.
49 πᾶς γὰρ πυρὶ ἁλισθήσεται, καὶ πᾶσα θυσία ἁλὶ ἁλισθήσεται.
50 La sal es buena, pero si pierde su sabor, ¿cómo podría alguien salarla de nuevo? Ustedes necesitan ser como la sal: vivan en paz unos con otros”.
50 Salt is good, but if the salt has lost its saltiness, with what will you season it? Have salt in yourselves, and be at peace with one another.”
50 καλὸν τὸ ἅλας· ἐὰν δὲ τὸ ἅλας ἄναλον γένηται, ἐν τίνι αὐτὸ ἀρτύσετε; ἔχετε ἐν ἑαυτοῖς ἅλας καὶ εἰρηνεύετε ἐν ἀλλήλοις.

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 9:44 Irenaeus of Lyons, Against Heresies (Book II, Chapters XXXI–XXXII)

    … "The righteous shall shine forth as the sun in the kingdom of their Father;" but He shall send the unrighteous, and those who do not the works of righteousness, "into everlasting fire, where their worm shall not die, and the fire shall not be quenched."

So, too, of the eye: "It is better for thee to enter into the kingdom of God with one eye, than having two eyes to be cast into hell fire: where their worm dieth not, and the fire is not quenched." He did not shrink from using the same words three times over in one passage.

  3. Quotes verse 9:38 John Chrysostom, Homilies on the Gospel of Matthew (Homily XLI)

    For here He signified one actually against them, but there He points to one who in part is on their side: "For they cast out devils," it is said "in Thy name." But to me He seems here to be hinting also at the Jews, setting them on the devil's side.

  4. Quotes verse 9:24 Cyril of Jerusalem, Catechetical Lectures (Lecture V)

    Nay, even if thou be faithless, or of little faith, the Lord is loving unto man; He condescends to thee on thy repentance: only on thy part say with honest mind, Lord, I believe, help thou mine unbelief.

  5. Quotes verse 9:25 Basil of Caesarea, On the Holy Spirit (Chapters VII–VIII)

    … note how, whenever He instructs us about His Father, He is in the habit of using terms of personal authority, saying, "I will; be thou clean;" and "Peace, be still;" and "But I say unto you;" and "Thou dumb and deaf spirit, I charge thee;" and all other expressions of the same kind, in order that by these we may …
