Lucas 18
Ang Biblia (1978)
18 At sinalita niya sa kanila ang isang talinghaga, na sila'y dapat (A)magsipanalanging lagi, at (B)huwag manganglupaypay;
2 Na sinasabi, May isang hukom sa isang bayan, na hindi natatakot sa Dios, at walang taong pinagpipitaganan:
3 At sa bayang yaon ay may isang babaing bao; at siya'y naparoroong madalas sa kaniya, na sinasabi, Iganti mo ako sa aking kaalit.
4 At may ilang panahon na siya'y tumatanggi: datapuwa't pagkatapos ay sinabi sa kaniyang sarili, Bagaman di ako natatakot sa Dios, at di nagpipitagan sa tao:
5 Gayon man, (C)sapagka't nililigalig ako ng baong ito, ay igaganti ko siya, baka niya ako bagabagin ng kapaparito.
6 At sinabi ng Panginoon, Pakinggan ninyo ang sinabi ng likong hukom.
7 At hindi baga, (D)igaganti ng Dios ang kaniyang mga (E)hirang, na sumisigaw sa kaniya sa araw at gabi, at siya'y (F)may pagpapahinuhod sa kanila?
8 Sinasabi ko sa inyo, (G)na sila'y madaling igaganti niya. Gayon ma'y pagparito ng Anak ng tao, makakasumpong kaya siya ng pananampalataya sa lupa?
9 At kaniyang sinalita naman ang talinghagang ito sa (H)nagsisiasa (I)sa kanilang sarili, na nangagpapanggap na sila'y matutuwid, at pinawawalang halaga ang lahat ng mga iba:
10 May dalawang lalaking (J)nagsipanhik sa templo upang magsipanalangin; ang isa'y Fariseo, at ang isa'y (K)maniningil ng buwis.
11 (L)Ang Fariseo ay nakatayo at nanalangin sa kaniyang sarili ng ganito, Dios, pinasasalamatan kita, na hindi ako gaya ng ibang mga tao, na mga manglulupig, mga liko, mga mapangalunya, o hindi man lamang gaya ng maniningil ng buwis na ito.
12 Makalawa akong (M)nagaayuno sa isang linggo; (N)nagbibigay ako ng ikapu ng lahat kong kinakamtan.
13 Datapuwa't ang maniningil ng buwis, na nakatayo sa malayo, ay (O)ayaw na itingin man lamang ang kaniyang mga mata sa langit, kundi (P)dinadagukan ang kaniyang dibdib, na sinasabi, Dios, ikaw ay mahabag sa akin, na isang makasalanan.
14 Sinasabi ko sa inyo, Nanaog at umuwi sa kaniyang bahay ang taong ito na inaaaring-ganap kay sa isa: (Q)sapagka't ang bawa't nagmamataas sa kaniyang sarili ay mabababa; datapuwa't ang nagpapakababa sa kaniyang sarili ay matataas.
15 At dinala naman nila (R)sa kaniya ang kanilang mga sanggol, upang kaniyang hipuin sila; datapuwa't nang mangakita ito ng mga alagad, ay sila'y sinaway nila.
16 Datapuwa't pinalapit sila ni Jesus sa kaniya, na sinasabi, Pabayaan ninyong magsilapit sa akin ang maliliit na bata, at huwag ninyo silang pagbawalan: sapagka't sa mga ganito nauukol ang kaharian ng Dios.
17 Katotohanang sinasabi ko sa inyo, Sinomang hindi tumanggap ng kaharian ng Dios na gaya ng isang maliit na bata, ay hindi siya papasok doon sa anomang paraan.
18 (S)At tinanong siya ng (T)isang pinuno, na sinasabi, Mabuting Guro, anong gagawin ko upang magmana ng walang hanggang buhay?
19 At sinabi sa kaniya ni Jesus, Bakit mo ako tinatawag na mabuti? walang mabuti, kundi isa, ang Dios lamang.
20 Talastas mo ang mga utos, (U)Huwag kang mangalunya, Huwag kang pumatay, Huwag kang magnakaw, Huwag kang sumaksi sa di katotohanan, Igalang mo ang iyong ama at ina.
21 At sinabi niya, Ginanap ko ang lahat ng mga bagay na ito buhat pa sa aking pagkabata.
22 At nang marinig ito ni Jesus, ay sinabi niya sa kaniya, Isang bagay pa ang kulang sa iyo: ipagbili mo ang lahat mong tinatangkilik, at ipamahagi mo sa mga dukha, at magkakaroon ka ng kayamanan sa langit: at pumarito ka, sumunod ka sa akin.
23 Datapuwa't nang marinig niya ang mga bagay na ito, siya'y namanglaw na lubha; sapagka't siya'y totoong mayaman.
24 At sa pagmamasid sa kaniya ni Jesus ay sinabi, (V)Pagkahiraphirap na makapasok sa kaharian ng Dios ang mga may kayamanan!
25 Sapagka't magaan pa sa isang kamelyo ang pumasok sa butas ng isang karayom, kay sa isang taong mayaman na pumasok sa kaharian ng Dios.
26 At sinabi ng mga nakarinig nito, Sino nga kaya ang makaliligtas?
27 Datapuwa't sinabi niya, Ang mga bagay na di mangyayari sa mga tao ay may pangyayari sa Dios.
28 At sinabi ni Pedro, Narito, iniwan namin ang aming sarili, at nagsisunod sa iyo.
29 At sinabi niya sa kanila, Katotohanang sinasabi ko sa inyo, Walang taong nagiwan ng bahay, o asawang babae, o mga kapatid, o mga magulang o mga anak, dahil sa kaharian ng Dios,
30 Na di tatanggap ng makapupung higit (W)sa panahong ito, at sa sanglibutang darating, ng walang hanggang buhay.
31 At (X)isinama niya ng bukod ang labingdalawa, at sa kanila'y sinabi, Narito, nagsisiahon tayo sa Jerusalem, at ang lahat ng mga bagay na isinulat (Y)ng mga propeta ay mangagaganap sa Anak ng tao.
32 Sapagka't siya'y (Z)ibibigay sa mga Gentil, at siya'y aalimurahin, at duduwahaginin, at luluraan.
33 At kanilang papaluin at papatayin siya: at sa ikatlong araw ay muling magbabangon siya.
34 At (AA)wala silang napagunawa sa mga bagay na ito; at ang sabing ito ay nalingid sa kanila, at hindi nila napagtalastas ang sinabi.
35 At nangyari, (AB)na nang nalalapit na sila sa Jerico, isang bulag ay nakaupo sa tabi ng daan na nagpapalimos:
36 At pagkarinig na nagdaraan ang maraming tao, ay itinanong niya kung ano ang ibig sabihin noon.
37 At sinabi nila sa kaniya, na nagdaraan si Jesus na taga Nazaret.
38 At siya'y nagsisigaw, na sinasabi, Jesus, ikaw na anak ni David, mahabag ka sa akin.
39 At siya'y sinaway ng nangasa unahan, upang siya'y tumahimik: datapuwa't siya'y lalong nagsisigaw, Ikaw na anak ni David, mahabag ka sa akin.
40 At si Jesus ay tumigil, at ipinagutos na dalhin siya sa kaniya: at nang mailapit siya, ay itinanong niya sa kaniya,
41 Anong ibig mo na sa iyo'y gawin ko? At sinabi niya, Panginoon, na tanggapin ko ang aking paningin.
42 At sinabi sa kaniya ni Jesus, Tanggapin mo ang iyong paningin: pinagaling ka ng pananampalataya mo.
43 At pagdaka'y tinanggap niya ang kaniyang paningin, at sumunod sa kaniya, na niluluwalhati ang Dios: at pagkakita nito ng (AC)buong bayan, ay nangagpuri sa Dios.

The Parable of the Persistent Widow
18 Then He spoke a parable to them, that men (A)always ought to pray and not lose heart, 2 saying: “There was in a certain city a judge who did not fear God nor [a]regard man. 3 Now there was a widow in that city; and she came to him, saying, [b]‘Get justice for me from my adversary.’ 4 And he would not for a while; but afterward he said within himself, ‘Though I do not fear God nor regard man, 5 (B)yet because this widow troubles me I will [c]avenge her, lest by her continual coming she weary me.’ ”
6 Then the Lord said, “Hear what the unjust judge said. 7 And (C)shall God not avenge His own elect who cry out day and night to Him, though He bears long with them? 8 I tell you (D)that He will avenge them speedily. Nevertheless, when the Son of Man comes, will He really find faith on the earth?”
The Parable of the Pharisee and the Tax Collector
9 Also He spoke this parable to some (E)who trusted in themselves that they were righteous, and despised others: 10 “Two men went up to the temple to pray, one a Pharisee and the other a tax collector. 11 The Pharisee (F)stood and prayed thus with himself, (G)‘God, I thank You that I am not like other men—extortioners, unjust, adulterers, or even as this tax collector. 12 I fast twice a week; I give tithes of all that I possess.’ 13 And the tax collector, standing afar off, would not so much as raise his eyes to heaven, but beat his breast, saying, ‘God, be merciful to me a sinner!’ 14 I tell you, this man went down to his house justified rather than the other; (H)for everyone who exalts himself will be [d]humbled, and he who humbles himself will be exalted.”
Jesus Blesses Little Children(I)
15 (J)Then they also brought infants to Him that He might touch them; but when the disciples saw it, they rebuked them. 16 But Jesus called them to Him and said, “Let the little children come to Me, and do not forbid them; for (K)of such is the kingdom of God. 17 (L)Assuredly, I say to you, whoever does not receive the kingdom of God as a little child will by no means enter it.”
Jesus Counsels the Rich Young Ruler(M)
18 (N)Now a certain ruler asked Him, saying, “Good Teacher, what shall I do to inherit eternal life?”
19 So Jesus said to him, “Why do you call Me good? No one is good but (O)One, that is, God. 20 You know the commandments: (P)‘Do not commit adultery,’ ‘Do not murder,’ ‘Do not steal,’ ‘Do not bear false witness,’ (Q)‘Honor your father and your mother.’ ”
21 And he said, “All (R)these things I have kept from my youth.”
22 So when Jesus heard these things, He said to him, “You still lack one thing. (S)Sell all that you have and distribute to the poor, and you will have treasure in heaven; and come, follow Me.”
23 But when he heard this, he became very sorrowful, for he was very rich.
With God All Things Are Possible(T)
24 And when Jesus saw that he became very sorrowful, He said, (U)“How hard it is for those who have riches to enter the kingdom of God! 25 For it is easier for a camel to go through the eye of a needle than for a rich man to enter the kingdom of God.”
26 And those who heard it said, “Who then can be saved?”
27 But He said, (V)“The things which are impossible with men are possible with God.”
28 (W)Then Peter said, “See, we have left [e]all and followed You.”
29 So He said to them, “Assuredly, I say to you, (X)there is no one who has left house or parents or brothers or wife or children, for the sake of the kingdom of God, 30 (Y)who shall not receive many times more in this present time, and in the age to come eternal life.”
Jesus a Third Time Predicts His Death and Resurrection(Z)
31 (AA)Then He took the twelve aside and said to them, “Behold, we are going up to Jerusalem, and all things (AB)that are written by the prophets concerning the Son of Man will be [f]accomplished. 32 For (AC)He will be delivered to the Gentiles and will be mocked and insulted and spit upon. 33 They will scourge Him and kill Him. And the third day He will rise again.”
34 (AD)But they understood none of these things; this saying was hidden from them, and they did not know the things which were spoken.
A Blind Man Receives His Sight(AE)
35 (AF)Then it happened, as He was coming near Jericho, that a certain blind man sat by the road begging. 36 And hearing a multitude passing by, he asked what it meant. 37 So they told him that Jesus of Nazareth was passing by. 38 And he cried out, saying, “Jesus, (AG)Son of David, have mercy on me!”
39 Then those who went before warned him that he should be quiet; but he cried out all the more, “Son of David, have mercy on me!”
40 So Jesus stood still and commanded him to be brought to Him. And when he had come near, He asked him, 41 saying, “What do you want Me to do for you?”
He said, “Lord, that I may receive my sight.”
42 Then Jesus said to him, “Receive your sight; (AH)your faith has made you well.” 43 And immediately he received his sight, and followed Him, (AI)glorifying God. And all the people, when they saw it, gave praise to God.

The Parable of the Persistent Widow
18 Then Jesus told his disciples a parable to show them that they should always pray and not give up.(A) 2 He said: “In a certain town there was a judge who neither feared God nor cared what people thought. 3 And there was a widow in that town who kept coming to him with the plea, ‘Grant me justice(B) against my adversary.’
4 “For some time he refused. But finally he said to himself, ‘Even though I don’t fear God or care what people think, 5 yet because this widow keeps bothering me, I will see that she gets justice, so that she won’t eventually come and attack me!’”(C)
6 And the Lord(D) said, “Listen to what the unjust judge says. 7 And will not God bring about justice for his chosen ones, who cry out(E) to him day and night? Will he keep putting them off? 8 I tell you, he will see that they get justice, and quickly. However, when the Son of Man(F) comes,(G) will he find faith on the earth?”
The Parable of the Pharisee and the Tax Collector
9 To some who were confident of their own righteousness(H) and looked down on everyone else,(I) Jesus told this parable: 10 “Two men went up to the temple to pray,(J) one a Pharisee and the other a tax collector. 11 The Pharisee stood by himself(K) and prayed: ‘God, I thank you that I am not like other people—robbers, evildoers, adulterers—or even like this tax collector. 12 I fast(L) twice a week and give a tenth(M) of all I get.’
13 “But the tax collector stood at a distance. He would not even look up to heaven, but beat his breast(N) and said, ‘God, have mercy on me, a sinner.’(O)
14 “I tell you that this man, rather than the other, went home justified before God. For all those who exalt themselves will be humbled, and those who humble themselves will be exalted.”(P)
The Little Children and Jesus(Q)
15 People were also bringing babies to Jesus for him to place his hands on them. When the disciples saw this, they rebuked them. 16 But Jesus called the children to him and said, “Let the little children come to me, and do not hinder them, for the kingdom of God belongs to such as these. 17 Truly I tell you, anyone who will not receive the kingdom of God like a little child(R) will never enter it.”
The Rich and the Kingdom of God(S)
18 A certain ruler asked him, “Good teacher, what must I do to inherit eternal life?”(T)
19 “Why do you call me good?” Jesus answered. “No one is good—except God alone. 20 You know the commandments: ‘You shall not commit adultery, you shall not murder, you shall not steal, you shall not give false testimony, honor your father and mother.’[a]”(U)
21 “All these I have kept since I was a boy,” he said.
22 When Jesus heard this, he said to him, “You still lack one thing. Sell everything you have and give to the poor,(V) and you will have treasure in heaven.(W) Then come, follow me.”
23 When he heard this, he became very sad, because he was very wealthy. 24 Jesus looked at him and said, “How hard it is for the rich to enter the kingdom of God!(X) 25 Indeed, it is easier for a camel to go through the eye of a needle than for someone who is rich to enter the kingdom of God.”
26 Those who heard this asked, “Who then can be saved?”
27 Jesus replied, “What is impossible with man is possible with God.”(Y)
28 Peter said to him, “We have left all we had to follow you!”(Z)
29 “Truly I tell you,” Jesus said to them, “no one who has left home or wife or brothers or sisters or parents or children for the sake of the kingdom of God 30 will fail to receive many times as much in this age, and in the age to come(AA) eternal life.”(AB)
Jesus Predicts His Death a Third Time(AC)
31 Jesus took the Twelve aside and told them, “We are going up to Jerusalem,(AD) and everything that is written by the prophets(AE) about the Son of Man(AF) will be fulfilled. 32 He will be delivered over to the Gentiles.(AG) They will mock him, insult him and spit on him; 33 they will flog him(AH) and kill him.(AI) On the third day(AJ) he will rise again.”(AK)
34 The disciples did not understand any of this. Its meaning was hidden from them, and they did not know what he was talking about.(AL)
A Blind Beggar Receives His Sight(AM)
35 As Jesus approached Jericho,(AN) a blind man was sitting by the roadside begging. 36 When he heard the crowd going by, he asked what was happening. 37 They told him, “Jesus of Nazareth is passing by.”(AO)
38 He called out, “Jesus, Son of David,(AP) have mercy(AQ) on me!”
39 Those who led the way rebuked him and told him to be quiet, but he shouted all the more, “Son of David, have mercy on me!”(AR)
40 Jesus stopped and ordered the man to be brought to him. When he came near, Jesus asked him, 41 “What do you want me to do for you?”
“Lord, I want to see,” he replied.
42 Jesus said to him, “Receive your sight; your faith has healed you.”(AS) 43 Immediately he received his sight and followed Jesus, praising God. When all the people saw it, they also praised God.(AT)
