WEB World English Bible (clásica, con deuterocanónicos)
1 At that time Jesus went on the Sabbaths through the grainfields, and His disciples were hungry, and they began to pluck ears, and to eat,
1 EN aquel tiempo iba Jesús por los sembrados en sábado; y sus discípulos tenían hambre, y comenzaron á coger espigas, y á comer.
1 At that time, Jesus went on the Sabbath day through the grain fields. His disciples were hungry and began to pluck heads of grain and to eat.
2 and the Pharisees having seen, said to Him, “Behold, Your disciples do that which it is not lawful to do on a Sabbath.”
2 Y viéndolo los Fariseos, le dijeron: He aquí tus discípulos hacen lo que no es lícito hacer en sábado.
2 But the Pharisees, when they saw it, said to him, “Behold, your disciples do what is not lawful to do on the Sabbath.”
3 And He said to them, “Did you not read what David did when he was hungry, himself and those with him—
3 Y él les dijo: ¿No habéis leído qué hizo David, teniendo él hambre y los que con él estaban:
3 But he said to them, “Haven’t you read what David did when he was hungry, and those who were with him:
4 how he went into the house of God, and ate the Bread of the Presentation, which it is not lawful to him to eat, nor to those with him, except to the priests alone?
4 Cómo entró en la casa de Dios, y comió los panes de la proposición, que no le era lícito comer, ni á los que estaban con él, sino á solos los sacerdotes?
4 how he entered into God’s house and ate the show bread, which was not lawful for him to eat, nor for those who were with him, but only for the priests?
5 Or did you not read in the Law that on the Sabbaths the priests in the temple profane the Sabbath and are blameless?
5 O ¿no habéis leído en la ley, que los sábados en el templo los sacerdotes profanan el sábado, y son sin culpa?
5 Or have you not read in the law that on the Sabbath day the priests in the temple profane the Sabbath and are guiltless?
6 And I say to you that [One] greater than the temple is here;
6 Pues os digo que uno mayor que el templo está aquí.
6 But I tell you that one greater than the temple is here.
7 and if you had known what [this] is: Kindness I will, and not sacrifice—you had not condemned the blameless,
7 Mas si supieseis qué es: Misericordia quiero y no sacrificio, no condenaríais á los inocentes:
7 But if you had known what this means, ‘I desire mercy, and not sacrifice,’ you wouldn’t have condemned the guiltless.
8 for the Son of Man is Lord even of the Sabbath.”
8 Porque Señor es del sábado el Hijo del hombre.
8 For the Son of Man is Lord of the Sabbath.”
9 And having departed from there, He went to their synagogue,
9 Y partiéndose de allí, vino á la sinagoga de ellos.
9 He departed from there and went into their synagogue.
10 and behold, there was a man having the hand withered, and they questioned Him, saying, “Is it lawful to heal on the Sabbaths?” That they might accuse Him.
10 Y he aquí había [allí] uno que tenía una mano seca: y le preguntaron, diciendo: ¿Es lícito curar en sábado? por acusarle.
10 And behold, there was a man with a withered hand. They asked him, “Is it lawful to heal on the Sabbath day?” so that they might accuse him.
11 And He said to them, “What man will be of you who will have one sheep, and if this may fall on the Sabbaths into a ditch, will not lay hold on it and raise [it]?
11 Y él les dijo: ¿Qué hombre habrá de vosotros, que tenga una oveja, y si cayere ésta en una fosa en sábado, no le eche mano, y la levante?
11 He said to them, “What man is there among you who has one sheep, and if this one falls into a pit on the Sabbath day, won’t he grab on to it and lift it out?
12 How much better, therefore, is a man than a sheep? So that it is lawful on the Sabbaths to do good.”
12 Pues ¿cuánto más vale un hombre que una oveja? Así que, lícito es en los sábados hacer bien.
12 Of how much more value then is a man than a sheep! Therefore it is lawful to do good on the Sabbath day.”
13 Then He says to the man, “Stretch forth your hand,” and he stretched [it] forth, and it was restored whole as the other.
13 Entonces dijo á aquel hombre: Extiende tu mano. Y él la extendió, y fué restituída sana como la otra.
13 Then he told the man, “Stretch out your hand.” He stretched it out; and it was restored whole, just like the other.
14 And the Pharisees having gone forth, held a consultation against Him, how they might destroy Him,
14 Y salidos los Fariseos, consultaron contra él para destruirle.
14 But the Pharisees went out and conspired against him, how they might destroy him.
15 and Jesus having known, withdrew from there, and there followed Him great multitudes, and He healed them all,
15 Mas sabiéndo[lo] Jesús, se apartó de allí: y le siguieron muchas gentes, y sanaba á todos.
15 Jesus, perceiving that, withdrew from there. Great multitudes followed him; and he healed them all,
16 and charged them that they might not make Him apparent,
16 Y él les encargaba eficazmente que no le descubriesen:
16 and commanded them that they should not make him known,
17 that it might be fulfilled that was spoken through Isaiah the prophet, saying,
17 Para que se cumpliese lo que estaba dicho por el profeta Isaías, que dijo:
17 that it might be fulfilled which was spoken through Isaiah the prophet, saying,
18 “Behold, My Servant, whom I chose, || My Beloved, in whom My soul delighted, || I will put My Spirit on Him, || And He will declare judgment to the nations;
18 He aquí mi siervo, al cual he escogido; mi Amado, en el cual se agrada mi alma: pondré mi Espíritu sobre él, y á los Gentiles anunciará juicio.
18 “Behold, my servant whom I have chosen, my beloved in whom my soul is well pleased. I will put my Spirit on him. He will proclaim justice to the nations.
19 He will not strive nor cry, || Nor will any hear His voice in the broad places;
19 No contenderá, ni voceará: ni nadie oirá en las calles su voz.
19 He will not strive, nor shout, neither will anyone hear his voice in the streets.
20 A bruised reed He will not break, || And smoking flax He will not quench, || Until He may put forth judgment to victory,
20 La caña cascada no quebrará, y el pábilo que humea no apagará, hasta que saque á victoria el juicio.
20 He won’t break a bruised reed. He won’t quench a smoking flax, until he leads justice to victory.
21 And in His Name will nations hope.”
21 Y en su nombre esperarán los Gentiles.
21 In his name, the nations will hope.”
22 Then was brought to Him a demoniac, blind and mute, and He healed him, so that the blind and mute both spoke and saw.
22 Entonces fué traído á él un endemoniado, ciego y mudo, y le sanó; de tal manera, que el ciego y mudo hablaba y veía.
22 Then one possessed by a demon, blind and mute, was brought to him; and he healed him, so that the blind and mute man both spoke and saw.
23 And all the multitudes were amazed and said, “Is this the Son of David?”
23 Y todas las gentes estaban atónitas, y decían: ¿Será éste aquel Hijo de David?
23 All the multitudes were amazed, and said, “Can this be the son of David?”
24 But the Pharisees having heard, said, “This One does not cast out demons, except by Beelzebul, ruler of the demons.”
24 Mas los Fariseos, oyéndolo, decían: Este no echa fuera los demonios, sino por Beelzebub, príncipe de los demonios.
24 But when the Pharisees heard it, they said, “This man does not cast out demons except by Beelzebul, the prince of the demons.”
25 And Jesus, knowing their thoughts, said to them, “Every kingdom having been divided against itself is desolated, and no city or house having been divided against itself stands,
25 Y Jesús, como sabía los pensamientos de ellos, les dijo: Todo reino dividido contra sí mismo, es desolado; y toda ciudad ó casa dividida contra sí misma, no permanecerá.
25 Knowing their thoughts, Jesus said to them, “Every kingdom divided against itself is brought to desolation, and every city or house divided against itself will not stand.
26 and if Satan casts out Satan, against himself he was divided, how then does his kingdom stand?
26 Y si Satanás echa fuera á Satanás, contra sí mismo está dividido; ¿cómo, pues, permanecerá su reino?
26 If Satan casts out Satan, he is divided against himself. How then will his kingdom stand?
27 And if I, by Beelzebul, cast out the demons, your sons—by whom do they cast out? Because of this they will be your judges.
27 Y si yo por Beelzebub echo fuera los demonios, ¿vuestros hijos por quién los echan? Por tanto, ellos serán vuestros jueces.
27 If I by Beelzebul cast out demons, by whom do your children cast them out? Therefore they will be your judges.
28 But if I, by the Spirit of God, cast out the demons, then the Kingdom of God has already come to you.
28 Y si por espíritu de Dios yo echo fuera los demonios, ciertamente ha llegado á vosotros el reino de Dios.
28 But if I by the Spirit of God cast out demons, then God’s Kingdom has come upon you.
29 Or how is one able to go into the house of the strong man, and to snatch his goods, if first he may not bind the strong man? And then his house he will plunder.
29 Porque, ¿cómo puede alguno entrar en la casa del valiente, y saquear sus alhajas, si primero no prendiere al valiente? y entonces saqueará su casa.
29 Or how can one enter into the house of the strong man and plunder his goods, unless he first bind the strong man? Then he will plunder his house.
30 He who is not with Me is against Me, and he who is not gathering with Me, scatters.
30 El que no es conmigo, contra mí es; y el que conmigo no recoge, derrama.
30 “He who is not with me is against me, and he who doesn’t gather with me, scatters.
31 Because of this I say to you, all sin and slander will be forgiven to men, but the slander of the Spirit will not be forgiven to men.
31 Por tanto os digo: Todo pecado y blasfemia será perdonado á los hombres: mas la blasfemia contra el Espíritu no será perdonada á los hombres.
31 Therefore I tell you, every sin and blasphemy will be forgiven men, but the blasphemy against the Spirit will not be forgiven men.
32 And whoever may speak a word against the Son of Man it will be forgiven to him, but whoever may speak against the Holy Spirit, it will not be forgiven him, neither in this age, nor in that which is coming.
32 Y cualquiera que hablare contra el Hijo del hombre, le será perdonado: mas cualquiera que hablare contra el Espíritu Santo, no le será perdonado, ni en este siglo, ni en el venidero.
32 Whoever speaks a word against the Son of Man, it will be forgiven him; but whoever speaks against the Holy Spirit, it will not be forgiven him, either in this age, or in that which is to come.
33 Either make the tree good, and its fruit good, or make the tree bad, and its fruit bad, for from the fruit is the tree known.
33 O haced el árbol bueno, y su fruto bueno, ó haced el árbol corrompido, y su fruto dañado; porque por el fruto es conocido el árbol.
33 “Either make the tree good and its fruit good, or make the tree corrupt and its fruit corrupt; for the tree is known by its fruit.
34 Brood of vipers! How are you able to speak good things—being evil? For out of the abundance of the heart the mouth speaks.
34 Generación de víboras, ¿cómo podéis hablar bien, siendo malos? porque de la abundancia del corazón habla la boca.
34 You offspring of vipers, how can you, being evil, speak good things? For out of the abundance of the heart, the mouth speaks.
35 The good man out of the good treasure of the heart puts forth the good things, and the evil man out of the evil treasure puts forth evil things.
35 El hombre bueno del buen tesoro del corazón saca buenas cosas: y el hombre malo del mal tesoro saca malas cosas.
35 The good man out of his good treasure brings out good things, and the evil man out of his evil treasure brings out evil things.
36 And I say to you that every idle word that men may speak, they will give for it a reckoning in [the] day of judgment;
36 Mas yo os digo, que toda palabra ociosa que hablaren los hombres, de ella darán cuenta en el día del juicio.
36 I tell you that every idle word that men speak, they will give account of it in the day of judgment.
37 for from your words you will be declared righteous, and from your words you will be declared unrighteous.”
37 Porque por tus palabras serás justificado, y por tus palabras serás condenado.
37 For by your words you will be justified, and by your words you will be condemned.”
38 Then certain of the scribes and Pharisees answered, saying, “Teacher, we will to see a sign from You.”
38 Entonces respondieron algunos de los escribas y de los Fariseos, diciendo: Maestro, deseamos ver de ti señal.
38 Then certain of the scribes and Pharisees answered, “Teacher, we want to see a sign from you.”
39 And He answering said to them, “A generation, evil and adulterous, seeks a sign, and a sign will not be given to it, except the sign of Jonah the prophet;
39 Y él respondió, y les dijo: La generación mala y adulterina demanda señal; mas señal no le será dada, sino la señal de Jonás profeta.
39 But he answered them, “An evil and adulterous generation seeks after a sign, but no sign will be given to it but the sign of Jonah the prophet.
40 for as Jonah was in the belly of the fish three days and three nights, so will the Son of Man be in the heart of the earth three days and three nights.
40 Porque como estuvo Jonás en el vientre de la ballena tres días y tres noches, así estará el Hijo del hombre en el corazón de la tierra tres días y tres noches.
40 For as Jonah was three days and three nights in the belly of the huge fish, so will the Son of Man be three days and three nights in the heart of the earth.
41 Men of Nineveh will stand up in the judgment with this generation, and will condemn it, for they converted at the proclamation of Jonah, and behold, [One] greater than Jonah [is] here!
41 Los hombres de Nínive se levantarán en el juicio con esta generación, y la condenarán; porque ellos se arrepintieron á la predicación de Jonás; y he aquí más que Jonás en este lugar.

42 The Queen of the South will rise up in the judgment with this generation and will condemn it, for she came from the ends of the earth to hear the wisdom of Solomon; and behold, someone greater than Solomon is here.
43 And when the unclean spirit may go forth from the man, it walks through dry places seeking rest and does not find;
43 Cuando el espíritu inmundo ha salido del hombre, anda por lugares secos, buscando reposo, y no lo halla.
43 “When an unclean spirit has gone out of a man, he passes through waterless places seeking rest, and doesn’t find it.
44 then it says, I will return to my house from where I came forth; and having come, it finds [it] unoccupied, swept, and adorned:
44 Entonces dice: Me volveré á mi casa de donde salí: y cuando viene, la halla desocupada, barrida y adornada.
44 Then he says, ‘I will return into my house from which I came;’ and when he has come back, he finds it empty, swept, and put in order.
45 then it goes, and takes with itself seven other spirits more evil than itself, and having gone in they dwell there, and the last of that man becomes worse than the first; so will it also be to this evil generation.”
45 Entonces va, y toma consigo otros siete espíritus peores que él, y entrados, moran allí; y son peores las cosas últimas del tal hombre que las primeras: así también acontecerá á esta generación mala.
45 Then he goes and takes with himself seven other spirits more evil than he is, and they enter in and dwell there. The last state of that man becomes worse than the first. Even so will it be also to this evil generation.”

47 Y le dijo uno: He aquí tu madre y tus hermanos están fuera, que te quieren hablar.
47 One said to him, “Behold, your mother and your brothers stand outside, seeking to speak to you.”

48 Y respondiendo él al que le decía [esto], dijo: ¿Quién es mi madre y quiénes son mis hermanos?
48 But he answered him who spoke to him, “Who is my mother? Who are my brothers?”

«Comentario» es el comienzo de una homilía o exposición sobre este capítulo (homilías de san Juan Crisóstomo; tratados, sermones y comentarios a los Salmos de san Agustín). «Cita» es una frase en la que las notas de la propia edición identifican la cita de un versículo de este capítulo; solo se conserva si el texto coincide con el versículo.

For when the unclean spirit of folly has gone forth, and when afterwards he finds them not waiting upon God, but occupied with mere worldly questions, then, "taking seven other spirits more wicked than himself," and inflating the minds of these men with the notion of their being able to conceive of something beyond God, and having fitly prepared them …
