FBV Free Bible Version (Versión Biblia Libre en inglés) WEB World English Bible (clásica, con deuterocanónicos) 1 One Sabbath Jesus went to have a meal at the home of one of the leaders of the Pharisees where they watched him closely. 1 Y ACONTECIÓ que entrando en casa de un príncipe de los Fariseos un sábado á comer pan, ellos le acechaban.
1 When he went into the house of one of the rulers of the Pharisees on a Sabbath to eat bread, they were watching him.
2 A man was there whose arms and legs were swollen. 2 Y he aquí un hombre hidrópico estaba delante de él.
2 Behold, a certain man who had dropsy was in front of him.
3 So Jesus asked the experts in religious law and the Pharisees, “Does the law allow healing on the Sabbath, or not?” 3 Y respondiendo Jesús, habló á los doctores de la ley y á los Fariseos, diciendo: ¿Es lícito sanar en sábado?
3 Jesus, answering, spoke to the lawyers and Pharisees, saying, “Is it lawful to heal on the Sabbath?”
4 But they kept quiet. Jesus touched the man, healed him, and sent him on his way. 4 Y ellos callaron. Entonces él tomándole, le sanó, y despidióle.
4 But they were silent. He took him, and healed him, and let him go.
5 Then Jesus said to them, “If your son or your ox happened to fall into a well on the Sabbath, wouldn't you go and pull him out immediately?” 5 Y respondiendo á ellos dijo: ¿El asno ó el buey de cuál de vosotros caerá en [algún] pozo, y no lo sacará luego en día de sábado?
5 He answered them, “Which of you, if your son or an ox fell into a well, wouldn’t immediately pull him out on a Sabbath day?”
6 They weren't able to give an answer. 6 Y no le podían replicar á estas cosas.
6 They couldn’t answer him regarding these things.
7 So he told a story to the guests, noticing how they'd chosen to sit in places of honor. 7 Y observando cómo escogían los primeros asientos á la mesa, propuso una parábola á los convidados, diciéndoles:
7 He spoke a parable to those who were invited, when he noticed how they chose the best seats, and said to them,
8 “When you're invited to a wedding reception, don't take the place of honor, because someone more important than you may have been invited,” he began. 8 Cuando fueres convidado de alguno á bodas, no te sientes en el primer lugar, no sea que otro más honrado que tú esté por él convidado,
8 “When you are invited by anyone to a wedding feast, don’t sit in the best seat, since perhaps someone more honorable than you might be invited by him,
9 “Your host who invited you both will come and tell you, ‘Give this man your place.’ Then in embarrassment you'll have to move to whatever place is left. 9 Y viniendo el que te llamó á ti y á él, te diga: Da lugar á éste: y entonces comiences con vergüenza á tener el lugar último.
9 and he who invited both of you would come and tell you, ‘Make room for this person.’ Then you would begin, with shame, to take the lowest place.
10 Instead, when you're invited, take the lowest place, so that when your host comes in, he'll tell you, ‘My friend, please move to a better seat.’ Then you'll be honored before all the guests sitting with you. 10 Mas cuando fueres convidado, ve, y siéntate en el postrer lugar; porque cuando viniere el que te llamó, te diga: Amigo, sube arriba: entonces tendrás gloria delante de los que juntamente se asientan á la mesa.
10 But when you are invited, go and sit in the lowest place, so that when he who invited you comes, he may tell you, ‘Friend, move up higher.’ Then you will be honored in the presence of all who sit at the table with you.
11 For those who exalt themselves will be humbled, and those who humble themselves will be exalted.” 11 Porque cualquiera que se ensalza, será humillado; y el que se humilla, será ensalzado.
11 For everyone who exalts himself will be humbled, and whoever humbles himself will be exalted.”
12 Then he said to the man who had invited him, “When you give a lunch or a dinner, don't invite your friends, or your brothers, or your relatives, or your rich neighbors, for they may invite you back, and then you'd be repaid. 12 Y dijo también al que le había convidado: Cuando haces comida ó cena, no llames á tus amigos, ni á tus hermanos, ni á tus parientes, ni á vecinos ricos; porque también ellos no te vuelvan á convidar, y te sea hecha compensación.
12 He also said to the one who had invited him, “When you make a dinner or a supper, don’t call your friends, nor your brothers, nor your kinsmen, nor rich neighbors, or perhaps they might also return the favor, and pay you back.
13 Instead, when you give a banquet, invite the poor, the crippled, the lame, and the blind, 13 Mas cuando haces banquete, llama á los pobres, los mancos, los cojos, los ciegos;
13 But when you make a feast, ask the poor, the maimed, the lame, or the blind;
14 and you will be blessed, for they have nothing to repay you with, and you'll be rewarded at the resurrection of the good.” 14 Y serás bienaventurado; porque no te pueden retribuir; mas te será recompensado en la resurrección de los justos.
14 and you will be blessed, because they don’t have the resources to repay you. For you will be repaid in the resurrection of the righteous.”
15 When one of them eating at the table with Jesus heard this, he said to Jesus, “How wonderful it will be for those who feast in the kingdom of God!” 15 Y oyendo esto uno de los que juntamente estaban sentados á la mesa, le dijo: Bienaventurado el que comerá pan en el reino de los cielos.
15 When one of those who sat at the table with him heard these things, he said to him, “Blessed is he who will feast in God’s Kingdom!”
16 “Once there was a man who prepared a great banquet, and invited many guests,” Jesus replied. 16 El entonces le dijo: Un hombre hizo una grande cena, y convidó á muchos.
16 But he said to him, “A certain man made a great supper, and he invited many people.
17 “When it was time to eat he sent his servant out to tell everyone who had been invited, ‘Come, because the banquet's ready.’ 17 Y á la hora de la cena envió á su siervo á decir á los convidados: Venid, que ya está todo aparejado.
17 He sent out his servant at supper time to tell those who were invited, ‘Come, for everything is ready now.’
18 But they all started to make excuses. The first said, ‘I've just bought a field and I have to go and see it. Please excuse me.’ 18 Y comenzaron todos á una á excusarse. El primero le dijo: He comprado una hacienda, y necesito salir y verla; te ruego que me des por excusado.
18 They all as one began to make excuses. “The first said to him, ‘I have bought a field, and I must go and see it. Please have me excused.’
19 Another said, ‘I've just bought five pairs of oxen and have to go and try them out. Please excuse me.’ Still another said, 19 Y el otro dijo: He comprado cinco yuntas de bueyes, y voy á probarlos; ruégote que me des por excusado.
19 “Another said, ‘I have bought five yoke of oxen, and I must go try them out. Please have me excused.’
20 ‘I've just got married, so I can't come.’ 20 Y el otro dijo: Acabo de casarme, y por tanto no puedo ir.
20 “Another said, ‘I have married a wife, and therefore I can’t come.’
21 The servant returned and told his master what they'd said. The home-owner became angry and told his servant, ‘Quickly, go out into the streets and alleys of the town, and bring in the poor and crippled and blind and lame.’ 21 Y vuelto el siervo, hizo saber estas cosas á su señor. Entonces enojado el padre de la familia, dijo á su siervo: Ve presto por las plazas y por las calles de la ciudad, y mete acá los pobres, los mancos, y cojos, y ciegos.
21 “That servant came, and told his lord these things. Then the master of the house, being angry, said to his servant, ‘Go out quickly into the streets and lanes of the city, and bring in the poor, maimed, blind, and lame.’
22 Then the servant said, ‘Master, I did what you told me, but there are still empty places.’ 22 Y dijo el siervo: Señor, hecho es como mandaste, y aun hay lugar.
22 “The servant said, ‘Lord, it is done as you commanded, and there is still room.’
23 So the master told the servant, ‘Go out on the country roads and lanes, and make people come—I want my house to be full. 23 Y dijo el señor al siervo: Ve por los caminos y por los vallados, y fuérza[los] á entrar, para que se llene mi casa.
23 “The lord said to the servant, ‘Go out into the highways and hedges, and compel them to come in, that my house may be filled.
24 I tell you, not a single one of those people I invited will get a taste of my banquet.’” 24 Porque os digo que ninguno de aquellos hombres que fueron llamados, gustará mi cena.
24 For I tell you that none of those men who were invited will taste of my supper. For many are called, but few are chosen.’”
25 A large crowd was accompanying Jesus. He turned to them and said, 25 Y muchas gentes iban con él; y volviéndose les dijo:
25 Now great multitudes were going with him. He turned and said to them,
26 “If you want to follow me but you don't hate your father and mother, and wife and children, and brothers and sisters—even your own life—you can't be my disciple. 26 Si alguno viene á mí, y no aborrece á su padre, y madre, y mujer, é hijos, y hermanos, y hermanas, y aun también su vida, no puede ser mi discípulo.
26 “If anyone comes to me, and doesn’t disregard his own father, mother, wife, children, brothers, and sisters, yes, and his own life also, he can’t be my disciple.
27 If you don't carry your cross and follow me, you can't be my disciple. 27 Y cualquiera que no trae su cruz, y viene en pos de mí, no puede ser mi discípulo.
27 Whoever doesn’t bear his own cross and come after me, can’t be my disciple.
28 If you planned to build a tower, wouldn't you first work out how much it would cost, and see if you had enough money to complete it? 28 Porque ¿cuál de vosotros, queriendo edificar una torre, no cuenta primero sentado los gastos, si tiene lo que necesita para acabarla?
28 For which of you, desiring to build a tower, doesn’t first sit down and count the cost, to see if he has enough to complete it?
29 Otherwise, if after laying the foundation you weren't able to finish it, everyone who saw it would laugh at you, saying, 29 Porque después que haya puesto el fundamento, y no pueda acabarla, todos los que [lo] vieren, no comiencen á hacer burla de él,
29 Or perhaps, when he has laid a foundation and isn’t able to finish, everyone who sees begins to mock him,
30 ‘Look at him: he started building but he couldn't finish.’ 30 Diciendo: Este hombre comenzó á edificar, y no pudo acabar.
30 saying, ‘This man began to build and wasn’t able to finish.’
31 What king goes to war with another king without first sitting down with his advisors to work out whether he and his ten thousand can defeat the one marching against him with twenty thousand? 31 ¿O cuál rey, habiendo de ir á hacer guerra contra otro rey, sentándose primero no consulta si puede salir al encuentro con diez mil al que viene contra él con veinte mil?
31 Or what king, as he goes to encounter another king in war, will not sit down first and consider whether he is able with ten thousand to meet him who comes against him with twenty thousand?
32 If he can't, he'll send representatives to ask for peace while the other king is still a long way off. 32 De otra manera, cuando aun el otro está lejos, le ruega por la paz, enviándo[le] embajada.
32 Or else, while the other is yet a great way off, he sends an envoy and asks for conditions of peace.
33 In the same way every one of you who doesn't give up everything can't be my disciple. 33 Así pues, cualquiera de vosotros que no renuncia á todas las cosas que posee, no puede ser mi discípulo.
33 So therefore, whoever of you who doesn’t renounce all that he has, he can’t be my disciple.
34 Salt is good, but if it loses its taste, how can you make it salty again? 34 Buena es la sal; mas si aun la sal fuere desvanecida, ¿con qué se adobará?
34 “Salt is good, but if the salt becomes flat and tasteless, with what do you season it?
35 It's no good for the soil or for fertilizer—you just toss it out. Whoever has ears, then listen!” 35 Ni para la tierra, ni para el muladar es buena; fuera la arrojan. Quien tiene oídos para oir, oiga.
35 It is fit neither for the soil nor for the manure pile. It is thrown out. He who has ears to hear, let him hear.”
