路加福音 6
Chinese New Version (Traditional)
安息日的主(A)
6 有一個安息日，耶穌從麥田經過，他的門徒摘了麥穗，用手搓著吃。 2 有幾個法利賽人說：“你們為甚麼作安息日不可作的事呢？” 3 耶穌回答：“大衛和跟他在一起的人，在飢餓的時候所作的，你們沒有念過嗎？ 4 他不是進了 神的殿，吃了陳設餅，也給跟他在一起的人吃嗎？這餅除了祭司以外，別的人是不可以吃的。” 5 他又對他們說：“人子是安息日的主。”
治好手枯的人(B)
6 另一個安息日，耶穌進入會堂教導人，在那裡有一個人，右手枯乾， 7 經學家和法利賽人要看他會不會在安息日治病，好找把柄控告他。 8 耶穌知道他們的意念，就對那一隻手枯乾了的人說：“起來，站在當中！”那人就起來站著。 9 耶穌對他們說：“我問你們：在安息日哪一樣是可以作的呢：作好事還是壞事？救命還是害命？” 10 他環視周圍所有的人，就對那人說：“伸出你的手來！”他把手一伸，手就復原了。 11 他們卻大怒，彼此商議怎樣對付耶穌。
選立十二使徒(C)
12 在那些日子，有一次耶穌出去到山上禱告，整夜禱告 神。 13 天亮以後，他把門徒叫來，從他們中間挑選了十二個人，稱他們為使徒， 14 就是西門（又給他起名叫彼得），和他弟弟安得烈，以及雅各、約翰、腓力、巴多羅邁、 15 馬太、多馬、亞勒腓的兒子雅各、稱為激進派的西門、 16 雅各的兒子猶大，和出賣主的加略人猶大。
論福論禍(D)
17 耶穌和他們下了山，站在平地上，有一大群門徒同他在一起，又有一大批從猶太全地、耶路撒冷和推羅、西頓海邊來的人。 18 他們要聽他講道，也要他們的疾病得醫好。還有一些被污靈纏擾的也痊愈了。 19 群眾都設法摸他，因為有能
力從他身上出來，治好眾人。 20 耶穌抬頭看著門徒，說：
“貧窮的人有福了，
因為 神的國是你們的。
21 飢餓的人有福了，
因為你們要得飽足。
哀哭的人有福了，
因為你們將要喜樂。
22 世人為人子的緣故憎恨你們、排斥你們、辱罵你們，棄絕你們的名好像棄絕惡物，你們就有福了。 23 那時你們應該歡喜跳躍，因為你們在天上的賞賜是大的，他們的祖先對待先知也是這樣。
24 “然而你們富有的人有禍了，
因為你們已經得了你們的安慰。
25 你們飽足的人有禍了，
因為你們將要飢餓。
你們喜樂的人有禍了，
因為你們將要痛哭。
26 人都說你們好的時候，你們就有禍了，因為你們的祖先對待假先知也是這樣。
當愛仇敵(E)
27 “只是我告訴你們聽道的人：當愛你們的仇敵，善待恨你們的人。 28 咒詛你們的，要為他們祝福，凌辱你們的，要為他們禱告。 29 有人打你一邊的臉，把另一邊也轉給他打；有人拿你的外衣，連內衣也讓他拿去。 30 向你求的，就給他；有人拿去你的東西，不用再要回來。 31 你們願意人怎樣待你們，你們就應當怎樣待人。 32 如果單愛那些愛你們的人，那有甚麼好處呢？罪人也愛那些愛他們的人。 33 如果只善待那些善待你們的人，那有甚麼好處呢？罪人也會這樣行。 34 如果借給人，又指望向人收回，那有甚麼好處呢？罪人也借給罪人，要如數收回。 35 你們要愛仇敵，善待他們；借出去，不要指望償還；這樣你們的賞賜就大了，你們也必作至高者的兒子，因為 神自己也寬待忘恩的和惡人。 36 你們要仁慈像你們的父仁慈一樣。
不可判斷(F)
37 “你們不要判斷人，就必不受判斷；不要定人的罪，就必不被定罪；要饒恕人，就必蒙饒恕； 38 要給人，就必有給你們的；並且要用十足的升斗，連按帶搖，上尖下流地倒在你們懷裡；因為你們用甚麼升斗量給人，就必用甚麼升斗量給你們。” 39 耶穌又用比喻對他們說：“瞎子怎能給瞎子領路呢？兩個人不都要掉在坑裡嗎？ 40 學生不能勝過老師，所有學成的，不過和老師一樣。 41 為甚麼看得見你弟兄眼中的木屑，卻想不到自己眼中的梁木呢？ 42 你不看見自己眼中的梁木，怎能對你弟兄說：‘弟兄，容我除去你眼中的木屑’呢？偽君子啊！先去掉自己眼中的梁木，才能看得清楚，好去掉弟兄眼中的木屑。
壞樹不能結好果子(G)
43 “因為好樹不能結壞果子，壞樹不能結好果子。 44 憑著果子就可以認出樹來。人不能從荊棘上採無花果，也不能從蒺藜裡摘葡萄。 45 良善的人從心中所存的良善發出良善，邪惡的人從心中所存的邪惡發出邪惡；因為心中所充滿的，口裡就說出來。
聽道要行道(H)
46 “你們為甚麼稱呼我‘主啊！主啊！’卻不遵行我的吩咐呢？ 47 每一個到我跟前，聽我的話並且去行的，我要指示你們他像甚麼人。 48 他像一個人建造房屋，挖深了地，把根基建在磐石上。大水氾濫的時候，急流沖擊那房屋，不能使它動搖，因為它建造得好。 49 但那聽見而不遵行的，就像人在地上建屋，沒有根基，急流一沖，就立刻倒塌，毀壞得很厲害。”
Luke 6
The Message
In Charge of the Sabbath
6 1-2 On a certain Sabbath Jesus was walking through a field of ripe grain. His disciples were pulling off heads of grain, rubbing them in their hands to get rid of the chaff, and eating them. Some Pharisees said, “Why are you doing that, breaking a Sabbath rule?”
3-4 But Jesus stood up for them. “Have you never read what David and those with him did when they were hungry? How he entered the sanctuary and ate fresh bread off the altar, bread that no one but priests were allowed to eat? He also handed it out to his companions.”
5 Then he said, “The Son of Man is no slave to the Sabbath; he’s in charge.”
6-8 On another Sabbath he went to the meeting place and taught. There was a man there with a crippled right hand. The religion scholars and Pharisees had their eyes on Jesus to see if he would heal the man, hoping to catch him in a Sabbath violation. He knew what they were up to and spoke to the man with the crippled hand: “Get up and stand here before us.” He did.
9 Then Jesus addressed them, “Let me ask you something: What kind of action suits the Sabbath best? Doing good or doing evil? Helping people or leaving them helpless?”
10-11 He looked around, looked each one in the eye. He said to the man, “Hold out your hand.” He held it out—it was as good as new! They were beside themselves with anger, and started plotting how they might get even with him.
The Twelve Apostles
12-16 At about that same time he climbed a mountain to pray. He was there all night in prayer before God. The next day he summoned his disciples; from them he selected twelve he designated as apostles:
Simon, whom he named Peter,
Andrew, his brother,
James,
John,
Philip,
Bartholomew,
Matthew,
Thomas,
James, son of Alphaeus,
Simon, called the Zealot,
Judas, son of James,
Judas Iscariot, who betrayed him.
You’re Blessed
17-21 Coming down off the mountain with them, he stood on a plain surrounded by disciples, and was soon joined by a huge congregation from all over Judea and Jerusalem, even from the seaside towns of Tyre and Sidon. They had come both to hear him and to be cured of their diseases. Those disturbed by evil spirits were healed. Everyone was trying to touch him—so much energy surging from him, so many people healed! Then he spoke:
You’re blessed when you’ve lost it all.
God’s kingdom is there for the finding.
You’re blessed when you’re ravenously hungry.
Then you’re ready for the Messianic meal.
You’re blessed when the tears flow freely.
Joy comes with the morning.
22-23 “Count yourself blessed every time someone cuts you down or throws you out, every time someone smears or blackens your name to discredit me. What it means is that the truth is too close for comfort and that that person is uncomfortable. You can be glad when that happens—skip like a lamb, if you like!—for even though they don’t like it, I do . . . and all heaven applauds. And know that you are in good company; my preachers and witnesses have always been treated like this.
Give Away Your Life
24 But it’s trouble ahead if you think you have it made.
What you have is all you’ll ever get.
25 And it’s trouble ahead if you’re satisfied with yourself.
Your self will not satisfy you for long.
And it’s trouble ahead if you think life’s all fun and games.
There’s suffering to be met, and you’re going to meet it.
26 “There’s trouble ahead when you live only for the approval of others, saying what flatters them, doing what indulges them. Popularity contests are not truth contests—look how many scoundrel preachers were approved by your ancestors! Your task is to be true, not popular.
27-30 “To you who are ready for the truth, I say this: Love your enemies. Let them bring out the best in you, not the worst. When someone gives you a hard time, respond with the supple moves of prayer for that person. If someone slaps you in the face, stand there and take it. If someone grabs your shirt, giftwrap your best coat and make a present of it. If someone takes unfair advantage of you, use the occasion to practice the servant life. No more payback. Live generously.
31-34 “Here is a simple rule of thumb for behavior: Ask yourself what you want people to do for you; then grab the initiative and do it for them! If you only love the lovable, do you expect a pat on the back? Run-of-the-mill sinners do that. If you only help those who help you, do you expect a medal? Garden-variety sinners do that. If you only give for what you hope to get out of it, do you think that’s charity? The stingiest of pawnbrokers does that.
35-36 “I tell you, love your enemies. Help and give without expecting a return. You’ll never—I promise—regret it. Live out this God-created identity the way our Father lives toward us, generously and graciously, even when we’re at our worst. Our Father is kind; you be kind.
37-38 “Don’t pick on people, jump on their failures, criticize their faults—unless, of course, you want the same treatment. Don’t condemn those who are down; that hardness can boomerang. Be easy on people; you’ll find life a lot easier. Give away your life; you’ll find life given back, but not merely given back—given back with bonus and blessing. Giving, not getting, is the way. Generosity begets generosity.”
39-40 He quoted a proverb: “‘Can a blind man guide a blind man?’ Wouldn’t they both end up in the ditch? An apprentice doesn’t lecture the master. The point is to be careful who you follow as your teacher.
41-42 “It’s easy to see a smudge on your neighbor’s face and be oblivious to the ugly sneer on your own. Do you have the nerve to say, ‘Let me wash your face for you,’ when your own face is distorted by contempt? It’s this I-know-better-than-you mentality again, playing a holier-than-thou part instead of just living your own part. Wipe that ugly sneer off your own face and you might be fit to offer a washcloth to your neighbor.
Work the Words into Your Life
43-45 “You don’t get wormy apples off a healthy tree, nor good apples off a diseased tree. The health of the apple tells the health of the tree. You must begin with your own life-giving lives. It’s who you are, not what you say and do, that counts. Your true being brims over into true words and deeds.
46-47 “Why are you so polite with me, always saying ‘Yes, sir,’ and ‘That’s right, sir,’ but never doing a thing I tell you? These words I speak to you are not mere additions to your life, homeowner improvements to your standard of living. They are foundation words, words to build a life on.
48-49 “If you work the words into your life, you are like a smart carpenter who dug deep and laid the foundation of his house on bedrock. When the river burst its banks and crashed against the house, nothing could shake it; it was built to last. But if you just use my words in Bible studies and don’t work them into your life, you are like a dumb carpenter who built a house but skipped the foundation. When the swollen river came crashing in, it collapsed like a house of cards. It was a total loss.”
Luke 6
King James Version
6 And it came to pass on the second sabbath after the first, that he went through the corn fields; and his disciples plucked the ears of corn, and did eat, rubbing them in their hands.
2 And certain of the Pharisees said unto them, Why do ye that which is not lawful to do on the sabbath days?
3 And Jesus answering them said, Have ye not read so much as this, what David did, when himself was an hungred, and they which were with him;
4 How he went into the house of God, and did take and eat the shewbread, and gave also to them that were with him; which it is not lawful to eat but for the priests alone?
5 And he said unto them, That the Son of man is Lord also of the sabbath.
6 And it came to pass also on another sabbath, that he entered into the synagogue and taught: and there was a man whose right hand was withered.
7 And the scribes and Pharisees watched him, whether he would heal on the sabbath day; that they might find an accusation against him.
8 But he knew their thoughts, and said to the man which had the withered hand, Rise up, and stand forth in the midst. And he arose and stood forth.
9 Then said Jesus unto them, I will ask you one thing; Is it lawful on the sabbath days to do good, or to do evil? to save life, or to destroy it?
10 And looking round about upon them all, he said unto the man, Stretch forth thy hand. And he did so: and his hand was restored whole as the other.
11 And they were filled with madness; and communed one with another what they might do to Jesus.
12 And it came to pass in those days, that he went out into a mountain to pray, and continued all night in prayer to God.
13 And when it was day, he called unto him his disciples: and of them he chose twelve, whom also he named apostles;
14 Simon, (whom he also named Peter,) and Andrew his brother, James and John, Philip and Bartholomew,
15 Matthew and Thomas, James the son of Alphaeus, and Simon called Zelotes,
16 And Judas the brother of James, and Judas Iscariot, which also was the traitor.
17 And he came down with them, and stood in the plain, and the company of his disciples, and a great multitude of people out of all Judaea and Jerusalem, and from the sea coast of Tyre and Sidon, which came to hear him, and to be healed of their diseases;
18 And they that were vexed with unclean spirits: and they were healed.
19 And the whole multitude sought to touch him: for there went virtue out of him, and healed them all.
20 And he lifted up his eyes on his disciples, and said, Blessed be ye poor: for yours is the kingdom of God.
21 Blessed are ye that hunger now: for ye shall be filled. Blessed are ye that weep now: for ye shall laugh.
22 Blessed are ye, when men shall hate you, and when they shall separate you from their company, and shall reproach you, and cast out your name as evil, for the Son of man's sake.
23 Rejoice ye in that day, and leap for joy: for, behold, your reward is great in heaven: for in the like manner did their fathers unto the prophets.
24 But woe unto you that are rich! for ye have received your consolation.
25 Woe unto you that are full! for ye shall hunger. Woe unto you that laugh now! for ye shall mourn and weep.
26 Woe unto you, when all men shall speak well of you! for so did their fathers to the false prophets.
27 But I say unto you which hear, Love your enemies, do good to them which hate you,
28 Bless them that curse you, and pray for them which despitefully use you.
29 And unto him that smiteth thee on the one cheek offer also the other; and him that taketh away thy cloak forbid not to take thy coat also.
30 Give to every man that asketh of thee; and of him that taketh away thy goods ask them not again.
31 And as ye would that men should do to you, do ye also to them likewise.
32 For if ye love them which love you, what thank have ye? for sinners also love those that love them.
33 And if ye do good to them which do good to you, what thank have ye? for sinners also do even the same.
34 And if ye lend to them of whom ye hope to receive, what thank have ye? for sinners also lend to sinners, to receive as much again.
35 But love ye your enemies, and do good, and lend, hoping for nothing again; and your reward shall be great, and ye shall be the children of the Highest: for he is kind unto the unthankful and to the evil.
36 Be ye therefore merciful, as your Father also is merciful.
37 Judge not, and ye shall not be judged: condemn not, and ye shall not be condemned: forgive, and ye shall be forgiven:
38 Give, and it shall be given unto you; good measure, pressed down, and shaken together, and running over, shall men give into your bosom. For with the same measure that ye mete withal it shall be measured to you again.
39 And he spake a parable unto them, Can the blind lead the blind? shall they not both fall into the ditch?
40 The disciple is not above his master: but every one that is perfect shall be as his master.
41 And why beholdest thou the mote that is in thy brother's eye, but perceivest not the beam that is in thine own eye?
42 Either how canst thou say to thy brother, Brother, let me pull out the mote that is in thine eye, when thou thyself beholdest not the beam that is in thine own eye? Thou hypocrite, cast out first the beam out of thine own eye, and then shalt thou see clearly to pull out the mote that is in thy brother's eye.
43 For a good tree bringeth not forth corrupt fruit; neither doth a corrupt tree bring forth good fruit.
44 For every tree is known by his own fruit. For of thorns men do not gather figs, nor of a bramble bush gather they grapes.
45 A good man out of the good treasure of his heart bringeth forth that which is good; and an evil man out of the evil treasure of his heart bringeth forth that which is evil: for of the abundance of the heart his mouth speaketh.
46 And why call ye me, Lord, Lord, and do not the things which I say?
47 Whosoever cometh to me, and heareth my sayings, and doeth them, I will shew you to whom he is like:
48 He is like a man which built an house, and digged deep, and laid the foundation on a rock: and when the flood arose, the stream beat vehemently upon that house, and could not shake it: for it was founded upon a rock.
49 But he that heareth, and doeth not, is like a man that without a foundation built an house upon the earth; against which the stream did beat vehemently, and immediately it fell; and the ruin of that house was great.
Luke 6
New King James Version
Jesus Is Lord of the Sabbath(A)
6 Now (B)it happened [a]on the second Sabbath after the first that He went through the grainfields. And His disciples plucked the heads of grain and ate them, rubbing them in their hands. 2 And some of the Pharisees said to them, “Why are you doing (C)what is not lawful to do on the Sabbath?”
3 But Jesus answering them said, “Have you not even read this, (D)what David did when he was hungry, he and those who were with him: 4 how he went into the house of God, took and ate the showbread, and also gave some to those with him, (E)which is not lawful for any but the priests to eat?” 5 And He said to them, “The Son of Man is also Lord of the Sabbath.”
Healing on the Sabbath(F)
6 (G)Now it happened on another Sabbath, also, that He entered the synagogue and taught. And a man was there whose right hand was withered. 7 So the scribes and Pharisees watched Him closely, whether He would (H)heal on the Sabbath, that they might find an (I)accusation against Him. 8 But He (J)knew their thoughts, and said to the man who had the withered hand, “Arise and stand here.” And he arose and stood. 9 Then Jesus said to them, “I will ask you one thing: (K)Is it lawful on the Sabbath to do good or to do evil, to save life or [b]to destroy?” 10 And when He had looked around at them all, He said to [c]the man, “Stretch out your hand.” And he did so, and his hand was restored [d]as whole as the other. 11 But they were filled with rage, and discussed with one another what they might do to Jesus.
The Twelve Apostles(L)
12 Now it came to pass in those days that He went out to the mountain to pray, and continued all night in (M)prayer to God. 13 And when it was day, He called His disciples to Himself; (N)and from them He chose (O)twelve whom He also named apostles: 14 Simon, (P)whom He also named Peter, and Andrew his brother; James and John; Philip and Bartholomew; 15 Matthew and Thomas; James the son of Alphaeus, and Simon called the Zealot; 16 Judas (Q)the son of James, and (R)Judas Iscariot who also became a traitor.
Jesus Heals a Great Multitude(S)
17 And He came down with them and stood on a level place with a crowd of His disciples (T)and a great multitude of people from all Judea and Jerusalem, and from the seacoast of Tyre and Sidon, who came to hear Him and be healed of their diseases, 18 as well as those who were tormented with unclean spirits. And they were healed. 19 And the whole multitude (U)sought to (V)touch Him, for (W)power went out from Him and healed them all.
The Beatitudes(X)
20 Then He lifted up His eyes toward His disciples, and said:
(Y)“Blessed are you poor,
For yours is the kingdom of God.
21 (Z)Blessed are you who hunger now,
For you shall be (AA)filled.[e]
(AB)Blessed are you who weep now,
For you shall (AC)laugh.
22 (AD)Blessed are you when men hate you,
And when they (AE)exclude you,
And revile you, and cast out your name as evil,
For the Son of Man’s sake.
23 (AF)Rejoice in that day and leap for joy!
For indeed your reward is great in heaven,
For (AG)in like manner their fathers did to the prophets.
Jesus Pronounces Woes
24 “But(AH) woe to you (AI)who are rich,
For (AJ)you have received your consolation.
25 (AK)Woe to you who are full,
For you shall hunger.
(AL)Woe to you who laugh now,
For you shall mourn and (AM)weep.
26 (AN)Woe [f]to you when [g]all men speak well of you,
For so did their fathers to the false prophets.
Love Your Enemies(AO)
27 (AP)“But I say to you who hear: Love your enemies, do good to those who hate you, 28 (AQ)bless those who curse you, and (AR)pray for those who spitefully use you. 29 (AS)To him who strikes you on the one cheek, offer the other also. (AT)And from him who takes away your cloak, do not withhold your tunic either. 30 (AU)Give to everyone who asks of you. And from him who takes away your goods do not ask them back. 31 (AV)And just as you want men to do to you, you also do to them likewise.
32 (AW)“But if you love those who love you, what credit is that to you? For even sinners love those who love them. 33 And if you do good to those who do good to you, what credit is that to you? For even sinners do the same. 34 (AX)And if you lend to those from whom you hope to receive back, what credit is that to you? For even sinners lend to sinners to receive as much back. 35 But (AY)love your enemies, (AZ)do good, and (BA)lend, [h]hoping for nothing in return; and your reward will be great, and (BB)you will be sons of the Most High. For He is kind to the unthankful and evil. 36 (BC)Therefore be merciful, just as your Father also is merciful.
Do Not Judge(BD)
37 (BE)“Judge not, and you shall not be judged. Condemn not, and you shall not be condemned. (BF)Forgive, and you will be forgiven. 38 (BG)Give, and it will be given to you: good measure, pressed down, shaken together, and running over will be put into your (BH)bosom. For (BI)with the same measure that you use, it will be measured back to you.”
39 And He spoke a parable to them: (BJ)“Can the blind lead the blind? Will they not both fall into the ditch? 40 (BK)A disciple is not above his teacher, but everyone who is perfectly trained will be like his teacher. 41 (BL)And why do you look at the speck in your brother’s eye, but do not perceive the plank in your own eye? 42 Or how can you say to your brother, ‘Brother, let me remove the speck that is in your eye,’ when you yourself do not see the plank that is in your own eye? Hypocrite! First remove the plank from your own eye, and then you will see clearly to remove the speck that is in your brother’s eye.
A Tree Is Known by Its Fruit(BM)
43 (BN)“For a good tree does not bear bad fruit, nor does a bad tree bear good fruit. 44 For (BO)every tree is known by its own fruit. For men do not gather figs from thorns, nor do they gather grapes from a bramble bush. 45 (BP)A good man out of the good treasure of his heart brings forth good; and an evil man out of the evil [i]treasure of his heart brings forth evil. For out (BQ)of the abundance of the heart his mouth speaks.
Build on the Rock(BR)
46 (BS)“But why do you call Me ‘Lord, Lord,’ and not do the things which I say? 47 (BT)Whoever comes to Me, and hears My sayings and does them, I will show you whom he is like: 48 He is like a man building a house, who dug deep and laid the foundation on the rock. And when the flood arose, the stream beat vehemently against that house, and could not shake it, for it was [j]founded on the rock. 49 But he who heard and did nothing is like a man who built a house on the earth without a foundation, against which the stream beat vehemently; and immediately it [k]fell. And the ruin of that house was great.”

Almeida Revista e Corrigida 2009
Jesus é Senhor do sábado(A)
6 E aconteceu que, num sábado, passou pelas searas, e os seus discípulos iam arrancando espigas e, esfregando-as com as mãos, as comiam. 2 E alguns dos fariseus lhes disseram: Por que fazeis o que não é lícito fazer nos sábados? 3 E Jesus, respondendo-lhes, disse: Nunca lestes o que fez Davi quando teve fome, ele e os que com ele estavam? 4 Como entrou na Casa de Deus, e tomou os pães da proposição, e os comeu, e deu também aos que estavam com ele, os quais não lhes era lícito comer, senão só aos sacerdotes? 5 E dizia-lhes: O Filho do Homem é senhor até do sábado.
A cura de um homem que tinha uma das mãos mirrada(B)
6 E aconteceu também, em outro sábado, que entrou na sinagoga e estava ensinando; e havia ali um homem que tinha a mão direita mirrada. 7 E os escribas e fariseus atentavam nele, se o curaria no sábado, para acharem de que o acusar. 8 Mas ele, conhecendo bem os seus pensamentos, disse ao homem que tinha a mão mirrada: Levanta-te e fica em pé no meio. E, levantando-se ele, ficou em pé. 9 Então, Jesus lhes disse: Uma coisa vos hei de perguntar: É lícito nos sábados fazer bem ou fazer mal? Salvar a vida ou matar? 10 E, olhando para todos ao redor, disse ao homem: Estende a mão. E ele assim o fez, e a mão lhe foi restituída sã como a outra. 11 E ficaram cheios de furor, e uns com os outros conferenciavam sobre o que fariam a Jesus.
A eleição dos doze(C)
12 E aconteceu que, naqueles dias, subiu ao monte a orar e passou a noite em oração a Deus. 13 E, quando já era dia, chamou a si os seus discípulos, e escolheu doze deles, a quem também deu o nome de apóstolos: 14 Simão, ao qual também chamou Pedro, e André, seu irmão; Tiago e João; Filipe e Bartolomeu; 15 Mateus e Tomé; Tiago, filho de Alfeu, e Simão, chamado Zelote; 16 Judas, filho de Tiago, e Judas Iscariotes, que foi o traidor.
O sermão da montanha(D)
17 E, descendo com eles, parou num lugar plano, e também um grande número de seus discípulos, e grande multidão do povo de toda a Judeia, e de Jerusalém, e da costa marítima de Tiro e de Sidom; 18 os quais tinham vindo para o ouvir e serem curados das suas enfermidades, como também os atormentados dos espíritos imundos. E eram curados. 19 E toda a multidão procurava tocar-lhe, porque saía dele virtude que curava todos.
20 E, levantando ele os olhos para os seus discípulos, dizia:
Bem-aventurados vós, os pobres, porque vosso é o Reino de Deus.
21 Bem-aventurados vós, que agora tendes fome, porque sereis fartos.
Bem-aventurados vós, que agora chorais, porque haveis de rir.
22 Bem-aventurados sereis quando os homens vos aborrecerem, e quando vos separarem, e vos injuriarem, e rejeitarem o vosso nome como mau, por causa do Filho do Homem. 23 Folgai nesse dia, exultai, porque é grande o vosso galardão no céu, pois assim faziam os seus pais aos profetas.
24 Mas ai de vós, ricos! Porque já tendes a vossa consolação.
25 Ai de vós, os que estais fartos, porque tereis fome!
Ai de vós, os que agora rides, porque vos lamentareis e chorareis!
26 Ai de vós quando todos os homens falarem bem de vós, porque assim faziam seus pais aos falsos profetas!
27 Mas a vós, que ouvis, digo: Amai a vossos inimigos, fazei bem aos que vos aborrecem, 28 bendizei os que vos maldizem e orai pelos que vos caluniam. 29 Ao que te ferir numa face, oferece-lhe também a outra; e ao que te houver tirado a capa, nem a túnica recuses. 30 E dá a qualquer que te pedir; e ao que tomar o que é teu, não lho tornes a pedir. 31 E como vós quereis que os homens vos façam, da mesma maneira fazei-lhes vós também.
32 E, se amardes aos que vos amam, que recompensa tereis? Também os pecadores amam aos que os amam. 33 E, se fizerdes bem aos que vos fazem bem, que recompensa tereis? Também os pecadores fazem o mesmo. 34 E, se emprestardes àqueles de quem esperais tornar a receber, que recompensa tereis? Também os pecadores emprestam aos pecadores, para tornarem a receber outro tanto. 35 Amai, pois, a vossos inimigos, e fazei o bem, e emprestai, sem nada esperardes, e será grande o vosso galardão, e sereis filhos do Altíssimo; porque ele é benigno até para com os ingratos e maus. 36 Sede, pois, misericordiosos, como também vosso Pai é misericordioso.
37 Não julgueis, e não sereis julgados; não condeneis, e não sereis condenados; soltai, e soltar-vos-ão. 38 Dai, e ser-vos-á dado; boa medida, recalcada, sacudida e transbordando vos darão; porque com a mesma medida com que medirdes também vos medirão de novo.
39 E disse-lhes uma parábola: Pode, porventura, um cego guiar outro cego? Não cairão ambos na cova? 40 O discípulo não é superior a seu mestre, mas todo o que for perfeito será como o seu mestre. 41 E por que atentas tu no argueiro que está no olho do teu irmão e não reparas na trave que está no teu próprio olho? 42 Ou como podes dizer a teu irmão: Irmão, deixa-me tirar o argueiro que está no teu olho, não atentando tu mesmo na trave que está no teu olho? Hipócrita, tira primeiro a trave do teu olho e, então, verás bem para tirar o argueiro que está no olho de teu irmão.
43 Porque não há boa árvore que dê mau fruto, nem má árvore que dê bom fruto. 44 Porque cada árvore se conhece pelo seu próprio fruto; pois não se colhem figos dos espinheiros, nem se vindimam uvas dos abrolhos. 45 O homem bom, do bom tesouro do seu coração, tira o bem, e o homem mau, do mau tesouro do seu coração, tira o mal, porque da abundância do seu coração fala a boca.
46 E por que me chamais Senhor, Senhor, e não fazeis o que eu digo? 47 Qualquer que vem a mim, e ouve as minhas palavras, e as observa, eu vos mostrarei a quem é semelhante. 48 É semelhante ao homem que edificou uma casa, e cavou, e abriu bem fundo, e pôs os alicerces sobre rocha; e, vindo a enchente, bateu com ímpeto a corrente naquela casa e não a pôde abalar, porque estava fundada sobre rocha. 49 Mas o que ouve e não pratica é semelhante ao homem que edificou uma casa sobre terra, sem alicerces, na qual bateu com ímpeto a corrente, e logo caiu; e foi grande a ruína daquela casa.
