PT1904 Patriarchal Text 1904 (accented, eBible edition)
1 Jesús llamó y reunió a sus doce discípulos y les dio poder para echar fuera espíritus malos y para sanar todo tipo de enfermedades.
1 He called to himself his twelve disciples, and gave them authority over unclean spirits, to cast them out, and to heal every disease and every sickness.
1 Καὶ προσκαλεσάμενος τοὺς δώδεκα μαθητὰς αὐτοῦ ἔδωκεν αὐτοῖς ἐξουσίαν πνευμάτων ἀκαθάρτων ὥστε ἐκβάλλειν αὐτὰ καὶ θεραπεύειν πᾶσαν νόσον καὶ πᾶσαν μαλακίαν.
2 Estos son los nombres de los doce apóstoles: primero, Simón (también llamado Pedro), su hermano Andrés, Santiago el hijo de Zebedeo, su hermano Juan,
2 Now the names of the twelve apostles are these. The first, Simon, who is called Peter; Andrew, his brother; James the son of Zebedee; John, his brother;
2 Τῶν δὲ δώδεκα ἀποστόλων τὰ ὀνόματά εἰσι ταῦτα· πρῶτος Σίμων ὁ λεγόμενος Πέτρος καὶ Ἀνδρέας ὁ ἀδελφὸς αὐτοῦ, Ἰάκωβος ὁ τοῦ Ζεβεδαίου καὶ Ἰωάννης ὁ ἀδελφὸς αὐτοῦ,
3 Felipe, Bartolomé, Tomás, Mateo el recaudador de impuestos, Santiago el hijo de Alfeo, Tadeo,
3 Philip; Bartholomew; Thomas; Matthew the tax collector; James the son of Alphaeus; Lebbaeus, who was also called Thaddaeus;
3 Φίλιππος καὶ Βαρθολομαῖος, Θωμᾶς καὶ Ματθαῖος ὁ τελώνης, Ἰάκωβος ὁ τοῦ Ἀλφαίου καὶ Λεββαῖος ὁ ἐπικληθεὶς Θαδδαῖος,
4 Simón el revolucionario y Judas Iscariote, quien entregó a Jesús.
4 Simon the Zealot; and Judas Iscariot, who also betrayed him.
4 Σίμων ὁ Κανανίτης καὶ Ἰούδας ὁ Ἰσκαριώτης ὁ καὶ παραδοὺς αὐτόν.
5 A estos doce envió Jesús, diciéndoles: “no vayan a los gentiles, ni a ninguna ciudad samaritana.
5 Jesus sent these twelve out and commanded them, saying, “Don’t go among the Gentiles, and don’t enter into any city of the Samaritans.
5 Τούτους τοὺς δώδεκα ἀπέστειλεν ὁ Ἰησοῦς παραγγείλας αὐτοῖς λέγων· εἰς ὁδὸν ἐθνῶν μὴ ἀπέλθητε καὶ εἰς πόλιν Σαμαρειτῶν μὴ εἰσέλθητε·
6 Ustedes deben ir a las ovejas perdidas de la casa de Israel.
6 Rather, go to the lost sheep of the house of Israel.
6 πορεύεσθε δὲ μᾶλλον πρὸς τὰ πρόβατα τὰ ἀπολωλότα οἴκου Ἰσραήλ.
7 Donde vayan, díganle a la gente: ‘el reino de los cielos está cerca’.
7 As you go, preach, saying, ‘The Kingdom of Heaven is at hand!’
7 πορευόμενοι δὲ κηρύσσετε λέγοντες ὅτι ἤγγικεν ἡ βασιλεία τῶν οὐρανῶν.
8 Sanen a los que estén enfermos. Resuciten a los muertos. Sanen a los leprosos. Echen fuera demonios. ¡Ustedes recibieron gratuitamente, entonces den gratuitamente!
8 Heal the sick, cleanse the lepers, and cast out demons. Freely you received, so freely give.
8 ἀσθενοῦντας θεραπεύετε, λεπροὺς καθαρίζετε, [νεκροὺς ἐγείρετε,] δαιμόνια ἐκβάλλετε· δωρεὰν ἐλάβετε, δωρεὰν δότε.
9 No lleven oro, plata, ni monedas de cobre en sus bolsillos,
9 Don’t take any gold, silver, or brass in your money belts.
9 μὴ κτήσησθε χρυσὸν μηδὲ ἄργυρον μηδὲ χαλκὸν εἰς τὰς ζώνας ὑμῶν,
10 ni lleven una bolsa de provisiones para el camino, ni dos abrigos, o sandalias, ni un bastón para caminar, porque todo trabajador merece su sustento.
10 Take no bag for your journey, neither two coats, nor sandals, nor staff: for the laborer is worthy of his food.
10 μὴ πήραν εἰς ὁδὸν μηδὲ δύο χιτῶνας μηδὲ ὑποδήματα μηδὲ ῥάβδον· ἄξιος γάρ ἐστιν ὁ ἐργάτης τῆς τροφῆς αὐτοῦ.
11 Donde vayan, cualquiera sea la ciudad o aldea, pregunten por alguien que viva conforme a buenos principios, y quédense allí hasta que se marchen.
11 Into whatever city or village you enter, find out who in it is worthy, and stay there until you go on.
11 εἰς ἣν δ᾽ ἂν πόλιν ἢ κώμην εἰσέλθητε, ἐξετάσατε τίς ἐν αὐτῇ ἄξιός ἐστι, κἀκεῖ μείνατε ἕως ἂν ἐξέλθητε.
12 Cuando lleguen a una casa, dejen bendición en ella.
12 As you enter into the household, greet it.
12 εἰσερχόμενοι δὲ εἰς τὴν οἰκίαν ἀσπάσασθε αὐτὴν λέγοντες· εἰρήνη τῷ οἴκῳ τούτῳ.
13 Si esa casa la merece, dejen su paz en ella, pero si no la merece, la paz regresará a ustedes.
13 If the household is worthy, let your peace come on it, but if it isn’t worthy, let your peace return to you.
13 καὶ ἐὰν μὲν ᾖ ἡ οἰκία ἀξία, ἐλθέτω ἡ εἰρήνη ὑμῶν ἐπ᾽ αὐτήν· ἐὰν δὲ μὴ ᾖ ἀξία, ἡ εἰρήνη ὑμῶν πρὸς ὑμᾶς ἐπιστραφήτω.
14 “Si alguien no los recibe bien, y se niega a escuchar el mensaje que ustedes tienen que decir, entonces váyanse de esa casa o de esa ciudad, sacudiendo el polvo de sus pies mientras se marchan.
14 Whoever doesn’t receive you or hear your words, as you go out of that house or that city, shake the dust off your feet.
14 καὶ ὃς ἐὰν μὴ δέξηται ὑμᾶς μηδὲ ἀκούσῃ τοὺς λόγους ὑμῶν, ἐξερχόμενοι ἔξω τῆς οἰκίας ἢ τῆς πόλεως ἐκείνης ἐκτινάξατε τὸν κονιορτὸν τῶν ποδῶν ὑμῶν.
15 Les digo la verdad: ¡Mejor será el Día del Juicio para Sodoma y Gomorra que para esa ciudad!
15 Most certainly I tell you, it will be more tolerable for the land of Sodom and Gomorrah in the day of judgment than for that city.
15 ἀμὴν λέγω ὑμῖν, ἀνεκτότερον ἔσται γῇ Σοδόμων καὶ Γομόρρας ἐν ἡμέρᾳ κρίσεως ἢ τῇ πόλει ἐκείνῃ.
16 “Miren que los estoy enviando como ovejas entre lobos. Así que sean astutos como serpientes y mansos como palomas.
16 “Behold, I send you out as sheep among wolves. Therefore be wise as serpents and harmless as doves.
16 Ἰδοὺ ἐγὼ ἀποστέλλω ὑμᾶς ὡς πρόβατα ἐν μέσῳ λύκων· γίνεσθε οὖν φρόνιμοι ὡς οἱ ὄφεις καὶ ἀκέραιοι ὡς αἱ περιστεραί.
17 Cuídense de aquellos que los entregarán para ser juzgados en los concilios de las ciudades y que los azotarán en sus sinagogas.
17 But beware of men, for they will deliver you up to councils, and in their synagogues they will scourge you.
17 Προσέχετε δὲ ἀπὸ τῶν ἀνθρώπων· παραδώσουσι γὰρ ὑμᾶς εἰς συνέδρια καὶ ἐν ταῖς συναγωγαῖς αὐτῶν μαστιγώσουσιν ὑμᾶς·
18 Ustedes serán arrastrados ante gobernantes y reyes por mi causa, para dar testimonio a ellos y a los gentiles.
18 Yes, and you will be brought before governors and kings for my sake, for a testimony to them and to the nations.
18 καὶ ἐπὶ ἡγεμόνας δὲ καὶ βασιλεῖς ἀχθήσεσθε ἕνεκεν ἐμοῦ εἰς μαρτύριον αὐτοῖς καὶ τοῖς ἔθνεσιν.
19 Pero cuando ellos los lleven a juicio, no se preocupen por la manera como deben hablar o por lo que deben decir, porque a ustedes se les dirá lo que deben decir en el momento correcto.
19 But when they deliver you up, don’t be anxious how or what you will say, for it will be given you in that hour what you will say.
19 ὅταν δὲ παραδώσουσιν ὑμᾶς, μὴ μεριμνήσητε πῶς ἢ τί λαλήσετε· δοθήσεται γὰρ ὑμῖν ἐν ἐκείνῃ τῇ ὥρᾳ τί λαλήσετε.
20 Porque no serán ustedes los que hablarán, sino el espíritu del Padre quien hablará por medio de ustedes.
20 For it is not you who speak, but the Spirit of your Father who speaks in you.
20 οὐ γὰρ ὑμεῖς ἐστε οἱ λαλοῦντες, ἀλλὰ τὸ Πνεῦμα τοῦ πατρὸς ὑμῶν τὸ λαλοῦν ἐν ὑμῖν.
21 El hermano entregará a su hermano y lo mandará a matar, y el padre hará lo mismo con su hijo. Los hijos se rebelarán contra sus padres, y los entregarán a la muerte.
21 “Brother will deliver up brother to death, and the father his child. Children will rise up against parents and cause them to be put to death.
21 Παραδώσει δὲ ἀδελφὸς ἀδελφὸν εἰς θάνατον καὶ πατὴρ τέκνον, καὶ ἐπαναστήσονται τέκνα ἐπὶ γονεῖς καὶ θανατώσουσιν αὐτούς·
22 Todo el mundo los odiará a ustedes porque ustedes me siguen a mi, pero todo aquél que persevere hasta el fin, será salvo.
22 You will be hated by all men for my name’s sake, but he who endures to the end will be saved.
22 καὶ ἔσεσθε μισούμενοι ὑπὸ πάντων διὰ τὸ ὄνομά μου· ὁ δὲ ὑπομείνας εἰς τέλος, οὗτος σωθήσεται.
23 “Cuando ustedes sean perseguidos en una ciudad, huyan a otra. Les digo la verdad: no terminarán de ir a las ciudades de Israel antes de que venga el Hijo del hombre.
23 But when they persecute you in this city, flee into the next, for most certainly I tell you, you will not have gone through the cities of Israel until the Son of Man has come.
23 ὅταν δὲ διώκωσιν ὑμᾶς ἐν τῇ πόλει ταύτῃ, φεύγετε εἰς τὴν ἄλλην· ἀμὴν γὰρ λέγω ὑμῖν, οὐ μὴ τελέσητε τὰς πόλεις τοῦ Ἰσραὴλ ἕως ἂν ἔλθῃ ὁ υἱὸς τοῦ ἀνθρώπου.
24 Los discípulos no son más importantes que su maestro;
24 “A disciple is not above his teacher, nor a servant above his lord.
24 Οὐκ ἔστι μαθητὴς ὑπὲρ τὸν διδάσκαλον οὐδὲ δοῦλος ὑπὲρ τὸν κύριον αὐτοῦ.
25 ellos deben estar satisfechos con llegar a ser como su maestro, y los siervos como su amo. Si a quien es la cabeza del hogar le han llamado demonio Belcebú, ¡aún más llamarán demonios a los demás miembros de esta casa!
25 It is enough for the disciple that he be like his teacher, and the servant like his lord. If they have called the master of the house Beelzebul, how much more those of his household!
25 ἀρκετὸν τῷ μαθητῇ ἵνα γένηται ὡς ὁ διδάσκαλος αὐτοῦ, καὶ τῷ δούλῳ ὡς ὁ κύριος αὐτοῦ. εἰ τὸν οἰκοδεσπότην Βεελζεβοὺλ ἐκάλεσαν, πόσῳ μᾶλλον τοὺς οἰκιακοὺς αὐτοῦ;
26 Así que no les tengan miedo, porque no hay nada encubierto que no salga a la luz, ni hay nada oculto que no se llegue a saber.
26 Therefore don’t be afraid of them, for there is nothing covered that will not be revealed, or hidden that will not be known.
26 μὴ οὖν φοβηθῆτε αὐτούς· οὐδὲν γάρ ἐστι κεκαλυμμένον ὃ οὐκ ἀποκαλυφθήσεται, καὶ κρυπτὸν ὃ οὐ γνωσθήσεται.
27 Lo que yo les digo aquí en la oscuridad, díganlo a la luz del día, y lo que han oído como un susurro en sus oídos, grítenlo desde las azoteas.
27 What I tell you in the darkness, speak in the light; and what you hear whispered in the ear, proclaim on the housetops.
27 ὃ λέγω ὑμῖν ἐν τῇ σκοτίᾳ, εἴπατε ἐν τῷ φωτί, καὶ ὃ εἰς τὸ οὖς ἀκούετε, κηρύξατε ἐπὶ τῶν δωμάτων.
28 No tengan miedo de aquellos que pueden matarlos físicamente, pero que no pueden matarlos espiritualmente. En lugar de ello, tengan miedo de Aquel que puede destruirlos física y espiritualmente en Gehena.
28 Don’t be afraid of those who kill the body, but are not able to kill the soul. Rather, fear him who is able to destroy both soul and body in Gehenna.
28 καὶ μὴ φοβηθῆτε ἀπὸ τῶν ἀποκτεννόντων τὸ σῶμα, τὴν δὲ ψυχὴν μὴ δυναμένων ἀποκτεῖναι· φοβήθητε δὲ μᾶλλον τὸν δυνάμενον καὶ ψυχὴν καὶ σῶμα ἀπολέσαι ἐν γεέννῃ.
29 ¿No se venden dos gorriones por el precio de un solo centavo? Pero ninguno de ellos cae al suelo sin que el Padre lo sepa.
29 “Aren’t two sparrows sold for an assarion coin? Not one of them falls to the ground apart from your Father’s will.
29 οὐχὶ δύο στρουθία ἀσσαρίου πωλεῖται; καὶ ἓν ἐξ αὐτῶν οὐ πεσεῖται ἐπὶ τὴν γῆν ἄνευ τοῦ πατρὸς ὑμῶν.
30 Incluso los cabellos que ustedes tienen en sus cabezas han sido contados.
30 But the very hairs of your head are all numbered.
30 ὑμῶν δὲ καὶ αἱ τρίχες τῆς κεφαλῆς πᾶσαι ἠριθμημέναι εἰσί.
31 Así que no se preocupen. ¡Ustedes valen más que muchos gorriones!
31 Therefore don’t be afraid. You are of more value than many sparrows.
31 μὴ οὖν φοβηθῆτε· πολλῶν στρουθίων διαφέρετε ὑμεῖς.
32 “Si alguno declara públicamente su compromiso conmigo, yo también declararé mi compromiso con él ante mi Padre que está en el cielo.
32 Everyone therefore who confesses me before men, I will also confess him before my Father who is in heaven.
32 Πᾶς οὖν ὅστις ὁμολογήσει ἐν ἐμοὶ ἔμπροσθεν τῶν ἀνθρώπων, ὁμολογήσω κἀγὼ ἐν αὐτῷ ἔμπροσθεν τοῦ πατρός μου τοῦ ἐν οὐρανοῖς·
33 Pero si alguno me niega públicamente, yo también lo negaré ante mi Padre en el cielo.
33 But whoever denies me before men, I will also deny him before my Father who is in heaven.
33 ὅστις δ᾽ ἂν ἀρνήσηταί με ἔμπροσθεν τῶν ἀνθρώπων, ἀρνήσομαι αὐτὸν κἀγὼ ἔμπροσθεν τοῦ πατρός μου τοῦ ἐν οὐρανοῖς.
34 No piensen que he venido a traer paz a la tierra. No he venido a traer paz sino espada.
34 “Don’t think that I came to send peace on the earth. I didn’t come to send peace, but a sword.
34 Μὴ νομίσητε ὅτι ἦλθον βαλεῖν εἰρήνην ἐπὶ τὴν γῆν· οὐκ ἦλθον βαλεῖν εἰρήνην, ἀλλὰ μάχαιραν.
35 He venido ‘a poner al hombre contra su padre, a la hija contra su madre, y a la nuera contra su suegra.
35 For I came to set a man at odds against his father, and a daughter against her mother, and a daughter-in-law against her mother-in-law.
35 ἦλθον γὰρ διχάσαι ἄνθρωπον κατὰ τοῦ πατρὸς αὐτοῦ καὶ θυγατέρα κατὰ τῆς μητρὸς αὐτῆς καὶ νύμφην κατὰ τῆς πενθερᾶς αὐτῆς·
36 ¡Sus enemigos serán los de su propia familia!’
36 A man’s foes will be those of his own household.
36 καὶ ἐχθροὶ τοῦ ἀνθρώπου οἱ οἰκιακοὶ αὐτοῦ.
37 Si ustedes aman a su padre o su madre más que a mi, no merecen ser míos; y si aman a su hijo o hija más que a mi, no merecen ser míos.
37 He who loves father or mother more than me is not worthy of me; and he who loves son or daughter more than me isn’t worthy of me.
37 Ὁ φιλῶν πατέρα ἢ μητέρα ὑπὲρ ἐμὲ οὐκ ἔστι μου ἄξιος· καὶ ὁ φιλῶν υἱὸν ἢ θυγατέρα ὑπὲρ ἐμὲ οὐκ ἔστι μου ἄξιος·
38 Si no cargan su cruz y me siguen, no merecen ser míos.
38 He who doesn’t take his cross and follow after me isn’t worthy of me.
38 καὶ ὃς οὐ λαμβάνει τὸν σταυρὸν αὐτοῦ καὶ ἀκολουθεῖ ὀπίσω μου, οὐκ ἔστι μου ἄξιος.
39 Si tratan de salvar su vida, la perderán, pero si pierden su vida por causa de mí, la salvarán.
39 He who seeks his life will lose it; and he who loses his life for my sake will find it.
39 ὁ εὑρὼν τὴν ψυχὴν αὐτοῦ ἀπολέσει αὐτήν, καὶ ὁ ἀπολέσας τὴν ψυχὴν αὐτοῦ ἕνεκεν ἐμοῦ εὑρήσει αὐτήν.
40 Aquellos que los reciban a ustedes me reciben a mi, y aquellos que me reciben a mi, reciben al que me envió.
40 “He who receives you receives me, and he who receives me receives him who sent me.
40 Ὁ δεχόμενος ὑμᾶς ἐμὲ δέχεται, καὶ ὁ ἐμὲ δεχόμενος δέχεται τὸν ἀποστείλαντά με.
41 Aquellos que reciben al profeta por ser profeta, recibirán recompensa de un profeta. Los que reciben a quien hace el bien, recibirán la misma recompensa como quien hace el bien.
41 He who receives a prophet in the name of a prophet will receive a prophet’s reward. He who receives a righteous man in the name of a righteous man will receive a righteous man’s reward.
41 ὁ δεχόμενος προφήτην εἰς ὄνομα προφήτου μισθὸν προφήτου λήψεται, καὶ ὁ δεχόμενος δίκαιον εἰς ὄνομα δικαίου μισθὸν δικαίου λήψεται.
42 Les digo la verdad: los que den una bebida de agua fresca al menos importante de mis discípulos, no perderán su recompensa”.
42 Whoever gives one of these little ones just a cup of cold water to drink in the name of a disciple, most certainly I tell you, he will in no way lose his reward.”
42 καὶ ὃς ἐὰν ποτίσῃ ἕνα τῶν μικρῶν τούτων ποτήριον ψυχροῦ μόνον εἰς ὄνομα μαθητοῦ, ἀμὴν λέγω ὑμῖν, οὐ μὴ ἀπολέσῃ τὸν μισθὸν αὐτοῦ.
