Mateo 11
Ang Dating Biblia (1905)
11 At nangyari, na nang matapos nang masabi ni Jesus ang kaniyang mga utos sa kaniyang labingdalawang alagad, ay umalis siya roon upang magturo at mangaral sa mga bayan nila.
2 Nang marinig nga ni Juan sa bilangguan ang mga gawa ni Cristo, ay nagpasugo siya sa pamamagitan ng kaniyang mga alagad,
3 At sinabi sa kaniya, Ikaw baga yaong paririto, o hihintayin namin ang iba?
4 At sumagot si Jesus at sa kanila'y sinabi, Magsiparoon kayo at sabihin ninyo kay Juan ang mga bagay na inyong nangaririnig at nangakikita:
5 Ang mga bulag ay nangakakakita, ang mga pilay ay nangakalalakad, ang mga ketongin ay nangalilinis, at ang mga bingi ay nangakaririnig, at ang mga patay ay ibinabangon, at sa mga dukha ay ipinangangaral ang mabubuting balita.
6 At mapalad ang sinomang hindi makasumpong ng anomang katitisuran sa akin.
7 At samantalang ang mga ito'y nagsisiyaon ng kanilang lakad, ay nagpasimula si Jesus na magsalita sa mga karamihan tungkol kay Juan, Ano ang nilabas ninyo upang masdan sa ilang? isang tambo na inuuga ng hangin?
8 Datapuwa't ano ang nilabas ninyo upang makita? isang taong nararamtan ng mga damit na maseselan? Narito, ang mga nagsisipanamit ng maseselan ay nangasa mga bahay ng mga hari.
9 Datapuwa't ano ang nilabas ninyo? upang makita ang isang propeta? Oo, sinasabi ko sa inyo, at lalo pang higit kay sa isang propeta.
10 Ito yaong tungkol sa kaniya'y nasusulat, Narito, sinusugo ko ang aking sugo sa unahan ng iyong mukha, Na maghahanda ng iyong daan sa unahan mo.
11 Katotohanang sinasabi ko sa inyo, Sa gitna ng mga ipinanganganak ng mga babae ay walang lumitaw na isang dakila kay sa kay Juan Bautista: gayon man ang lalong maliit sa kaharian ng langit ay lalong dakila kay sa kaniya.
12 At mula sa mga araw ni Juan Bautista hanggang ngayon, ang kaharian ng langit ay nagbabata ng karahasan, at kinukuha nang sapilitan ng mga taong mararahas.
13 Sapagka't ang lahat ng mga propeta at ang kautusan hanggang kay Juan ay nagsipanghula.
14 At kung ibig ninyong tanggapin, ay siya'y si Elias na paririto.
15 Ang may mga pakinig upang ipakinig, ay makinig.
16 Datapuwa't sa ano ko itutulad ang lahing ito? Tulad sa mga batang nangakaupo sa mga pamilihan, na sinisigawan ang kanilang mga kasama.
17 At sinasabi, Tinutugtugan namin kayo ng plauta, at hindi kayo nagsisisayaw; nagsipanambitan kami, at hindi kayo nangahapis.
18 Sapagka't naparito si Juan na hindi kumakain o umiinom man, at sinasabi nila, Siya'y mayroong demonio.
19 Naparito ang Anak ng tao na kumakain at umiinom, at sinasabi nila, Narito, ang isang matakaw na tao at isang manginginom ng alak, isang kaibigan ng mga maniningil ng buwis at ng mga makasalanan! At ang karunungan ay inaaring-ganap ng kaniyang mga gawa.
20 Nang magkagayo'y kaniyang pinasimulang sumbatan ang mga bayan na pinaggagawan niya ng lalong marami sa kaniyang mga gawang makapangyarihan, sapagka't hindi sila nangagsisi.
21 Sa aba mo, Corazin! sa aba mo, Bethsaida! sapagka't kung sa Tiro at sa Sidon sana ginawa ang mga gawang makapangyarihan na ginawa sa inyo, malaon na dising nangagsisi na may mga damit na magaspang at abo.
22 Nguni't sinasabi ko sa inyo na higit na mapagpapaumanhinan ang Tiro at Sidon sa araw ng paghuhukom, kay sa inyo.
23 At ikaw, Capernaum, magpapakataas ka baga hanggang sa langit? ibababa ka hanggang sa Hades: sapagka't kung sa Sodoma sana ginawa ang mga makapangyarihang gawang sa iyo'y ginawa, ay nanatili sana siya hanggang sa araw na ito.
24 Datapuwa't sinasabi ko sa inyo na higit na mapagpapaumanhinan ang lupa ng Sodoma sa araw ng paghuhukom, kay sa iyo.
25 Nang panahong yaon ay sumagot si Jesus at sinabi, Ako'y nagpapasalamat sa iyo, Oh Ama, Panginoon ng langit at ng lupa, na iyong inilihim ang mga bagay na ito sa mga pantas at matatalino, at ipinahayag mo sa mga sanggol:
26 Oo nga, Ama, sapagka't gayon ang nakalugod sa iyong paningin.
27 Ang lahat ng mga bagay ay ibinigay sa akin ng aking Ama: at sinoma'y hindi nakakakilala sa Anak kundi ang Ama; at sinoma'y hindi nakakakilala sa Ama, kundi ang Anak, at yaong ibiging pagpahayagan ng Anak.
28 Magsiparito sa akin, kayong lahat na nangapapagal at nangabibigatang lubha, at kayo'y aking papagpapahingahin.
29 Pasanin ninyo ang aking pamatok, at magaral kayo sa akin; sapagka't ako'y maamo at mapagpakumbabang puso: at masusumpungan ninyo ang kapahingahan ng inyong mga kaluluwa.
30 Sapagka't malambot ang aking pamatok, at magaan ang aking pasan.

Jesus and John the Baptist(A)
11 After Jesus finished ·telling these things to [instructing; see 7:28] his twelve ·followers [disciples], he left there and went to ·the towns in Galilee [L their towns] to teach and preach.
2 John the Baptist was in prison, but he heard about ·what Christ was doing [or the deeds/actions of the Messiah]. So John sent some of his ·followers [disciples] to Jesus. 3 They asked him, “Are you the ·One who is to come [Expected One; C the Messiah], or should we ·wait for [look for; expect] someone else?”
4 Jesus answered them, “Go ·tell [report to] John what you hear and see: 5 The blind can see, the ·crippled [lame] can walk, and ·people with skin diseases [T lepers; see 8:2] are ·healed [L cleansed]. The deaf can hear, the dead are raised to life, and the ·Good News [Gospel] is preached to the poor [C signs of God’s restoration of creation, predicted by the prophet Isaiah; Is. 29:18–19; 35:5–6; 61:1–2]. 6 Those who ·do not stumble in their faith [are not offended] because of me are blessed.”
7 As ·John’s followers [L they] were leaving, Jesus began talking to the ·people [crowds] about John. Jesus said, “What did you go out into the ·desert [wilderness] to see? A reed ·blown by [shaken by; swaying in] the wind [C a metaphor for something weak or wavering]? 8 What did you go out to see? A man dressed in ·fine [expensive] clothes? No, those who wear ·fine [expensive; L soft] clothes ·live [are found] in kings’ ·palaces [houses]. 9 So why did you go out? To see a prophet? Yes, and I tell you, John is more than a prophet. 10 This was written about him:
‘[L Look; T Behold] I will send my messenger ahead of you,
who will prepare ·the [your] way ·for [before; in front of] you [Mal. 3:1].’
11 I tell you the truth, John the Baptist is greater than any other person ·ever born [L born to women], but even the least important person in the kingdom of heaven is greater than John [C because John prepares for, but does not fully participate in the blessings of the kingdom]. 12 ·Since the time [L From the days] John the Baptist came until now, the kingdom of heaven has been ·going forward in strength [advancing forcefully; or subject to violence; suffering violent attacks], and ·forceful [or violent] people have been trying to ·take it by force [lay hold of it; or attack it]. 13 All the prophets and the law of Moses ·told about what would happen [L prophesied] until ·the time John came [L John]. 14 And if you ·will believe what they said, you will believe that John is Elijah [L are willing to accept it, he is Elijah], whom they said would come. 15 ·Let those with ears use them and listen[L The one who has ears to hear, let him hear]!
16 “·What can I say about the people of this time? What are they like? [L To what shall I compare this generation?] They are like children sitting in the marketplace, who call out to each other,
17 ‘We played ·music [L the pipe/flute] for you, but you did not dance;
we sang a ·sad song [funeral song; dirge], but you did not ·cry [weep].’ [C The religious leaders wanted John to “dance” (lighten up his severe message) and wanted Jesus to “mourn” (follow their restrictive lifestyle).]
18 [L For] John came and did not eat or drink like other people. So people say, ‘He ·has [is possessed by] a demon.’ 19 The Son of Man came, eating and drinking, and people say, ‘Look at him! ·He eats too much and drinks too much wine [L He’s a glutton and a drunkard], and he is a friend of tax collectors and sinners.’ But wisdom is ·proved to be right [vindicated] by ·what she does [or its deeds/actions/results; C Wisdom is personified as a woman (Prov. 8), her “children” being those who respond favorably to the message of John and Jesus].”
Jesus Warns Unbelievers(B)
20 Then Jesus began to ·criticize [denounce; reproach] the cities where he did ·most [so many] of his ·miracles [powerful deeds], because the people did not ·change their lives and stop sinning [repent]. 21 He said, “·How terrible for [L Woe to] you, Korazin! ·How terrible for [L Woe to] you, Bethsaida! If the same ·miracles [powerful deeds] ·I did [L that occurred] in you had happened in Tyre and Sidon [C cities in Phoenicia notorious for their wickedness], those people would have ·changed their lives [repented] a long time ago. ·They would have worn rough cloth and put ashes on themselves to show they had changed [L …in sackcloth/burlap and ashes; C signs of sorrow and deep remorse]. 22 But I tell you, on the judgment day it will be ·better [more bearable/tolerable] for Tyre and Sidon than for you. 23 And you, Capernaum [C a town in Galilee where Jesus lived and ministered], will you be ·lifted up to [honored/exalted in] heaven? No! you will be thrown down to ·the depths [the place of the dead; L Hades; Is. 14:13, 15]. If the ·miracles [powerful deeds] ·I did [L that occurred] in you had happened in Sodom [C a city God destroyed because the people were so evil; Gen. 19], it would ·still be a city [L have remained until] today [C because its people would have repented and judgment averted]. 24 But I tell you, on the judgment day it will be ·better [more bearable/tolerable] for [L the region/land of] Sodom than for you.”
Jesus Offers Rest to People(C)
25 At that time Jesus said, “I ·praise [bless; thank; acknowledge] you, Father, Lord of heaven and earth, because you have hidden these things from the people who are wise and ·smart [learned; intelligent]. But you have ·shown [revealed] them to ·those who are like little children [L little children; infants; C those with a childlike faith]. 26 Yes, Father, [L because] this is what ·you really wanted [pleased you].
27 “My Father has ·given [entrusted/committed to] me all things. No one knows the Son, except the Father. And no one knows the Father, except the Son and those whom the Son ·chooses [desires; intends] to ·tell [reveal it].
28 “Come to me, all of you who are ·tired [weary] and ·have heavy loads [overburdened; T heavy-laden] and I will give you rest. 29 ·Accept my teachings [L Take my yoke upon you] and learn from me, because I am gentle and humble in ·spirit [heart], and you will find rest for your ·lives [souls; Jer. 6:16]. 30 ·The burden that I ask you to accept [L …because my yoke] is easy; ·the load I give you to carry [L and my burden] is light.”

Jesus and John the Baptist(A)
11 After Jesus had finished instructing his twelve disciples,(B) he went on from there to teach and preach in the towns of Galilee.[a]
2 When John,(C) who was in prison,(D) heard about the deeds of the Messiah, he sent his disciples 3 to ask him, “Are you the one who is to come,(E) or should we expect someone else?”
4 Jesus replied, “Go back and report to John what you hear and see: 5 The blind receive sight, the lame walk, those who have leprosy[b] are cleansed, the deaf hear, the dead are raised, and the good news is proclaimed to the poor.(F) 6 Blessed is anyone who does not stumble on account of me.”(G)
7 As John’s(H) disciples were leaving, Jesus began to speak to the crowd about John: “What did you go out into the wilderness(I) to see? A reed swayed by the wind? 8 If not, what did you go out to see? A man dressed in fine clothes? No, those who wear fine clothes are in kings’ palaces. 9 Then what did you go out to see? A prophet?(J) Yes, I tell you, and more than a prophet. 10 This is the one about whom it is written:
11 Truly I tell you, among those born of women there has not risen anyone greater than John the Baptist; yet whoever is least in the kingdom of heaven is greater than he. 12 From the days of John the Baptist until now, the kingdom of heaven has been subjected to violence,[d] and violent people have been raiding it. 13 For all the Prophets and the Law prophesied until John.(M) 14 And if you are willing to accept it, he is the Elijah who was to come.(N) 15 Whoever has ears, let them hear.(O)
16 “To what can I compare this generation? They are like children sitting in the marketplaces and calling out to others:
17 “‘We played the pipe for you,
and you did not dance;
we sang a dirge,
and you did not mourn.’
18 For John came neither eating(P) nor drinking,(Q) and they say, ‘He has a demon.’ 19 The Son of Man came eating and drinking, and they say, ‘Here is a glutton and a drunkard, a friend of tax collectors and sinners.’(R) But wisdom is proved right by her deeds.”
Woe on Unrepentant Towns(S)
20 Then Jesus began to denounce the towns in which most of his miracles had been performed, because they did not repent. 21 “Woe to you, Chorazin! Woe to you, Bethsaida!(T) For if the miracles that were performed in you had been performed in Tyre and Sidon,(U) they would have repented long ago in sackcloth and ashes.(V) 22 But I tell you, it will be more bearable for Tyre and Sidon on the day of judgment than for you.(W) 23 And you, Capernaum,(X) will you be lifted to the heavens? No, you will go down to Hades.[e](Y) For if the miracles that were performed in you had been performed in Sodom, it would have remained to this day. 24 But I tell you that it will be more bearable for Sodom on the day of judgment than for you.”(Z)
The Father Revealed in the Son(AA)
25 At that time Jesus said, “I praise you, Father,(AB) Lord of heaven and earth, because you have hidden these things from the wise and learned, and revealed them to little children.(AC) 26 Yes, Father, for this is what you were pleased to do.
27 “All things have been committed to me(AD) by my Father.(AE) No one knows the Son except the Father, and no one knows the Father except the Son and those to whom the Son chooses to reveal him.(AF)
28 “Come to me,(AG) all you who are weary and burdened, and I will give you rest.(AH) 29 Take my yoke upon you and learn from me,(AI) for I am gentle and humble in heart, and you will find rest for your souls.(AJ) 30 For my yoke is easy and my burden is light.”(AK)
