Book of Common Prayer

¹³ Now de we do not ou want thelō you hymeis to be uninformed agnoeō, brothers adelphos, about peri those ho who are asleep koimaō, so that hina you will not mē grieve lypeō as kathōs · kai · ho others loipos do who ho have echō no mē hope elpis. ¹⁴ For gar if ei we believe pisteuō that hoti Jesus Iēsous died apothnēskō and kai rose again anistēmi, so houtōs also kai do we believe that · ho God theos will bring agō with syn him autos those ho who have fallen asleep koimaō in dia · ho Jesus Iēsous.

¹⁵ For gar this houtos we say legō to you hymeis by en the word logos of the Lord kyrios, that hoti we hēmeis who ho are alive zaō, who ho remain behind perileipomai until eis the ho coming parousia of the ho Lord kyrios, will by no means ou precede phthanō those ho who have fallen asleep koimaō, ¹⁶ because hoti the ho Lord kyrios himself autos will descend katabainō from apo heaven ouranos with en a cry of command keleusma, with en the voice phōnē of an archangel archangelos, and kai with en the trumpet salpinx of God theos, and kai the ho dead nekros in en Christ Christos will rise anistēmi first prōton. ¹⁷ Then epeita we hēmeis who ho are alive zaō, who ho remain behind perileipomai, will be caught up harpazō in en the clouds nephelē together hama with syn them autos to eis meet apantēsis the ho Lord kyrios in eis the air aēr. And kai so houtōs we will be eimi forever pantote with syn the Lord kyrios. ¹⁸ So hōste encourage parakaleō one another allēlōn with en · ho these houtos words logos.

6 “ Take prosechō care not mē to perform poieō · ho your hymeis good dikaiosynē deeds before emprosthen · ho others anthrōpos so pros as · ho to be seen theaomai by them autos; otherwise ei de · de you have echō no ou reward misthos from para · ho your hymeis Father patēr who ho is in en · ho heaven ouranos. ² So oun whenever hotan you give poieō alms eleēmosynē do not mē sound salpizō a trumpet before emprosthen you sy, as hōsper the ho hypocrites hypokritēs do poieō in en the ho synagogues synagōgē and kai in en the ho streets rhymē, so hopōs that they may be praised doxazō by hypo · ho others anthrōpos. I tell legō you hymeis the truth amēn, they have received apechō · ho their autos reward misthos. ³ But de when you sy are giving poieō alms eleēmosynē, do not mē let your sy left hand aristeros know ginōskō · ho what tis your sy right hand dexios is doing poieō, · ho ⁴ so hopōs that your sy almsgiving eleēmosynē may be eimi · ho in en · ho secret kryptos; and kai · ho your sy Father patēr who ho sees blepō in en · ho secret kryptos will reward apodidōmi you sy.

⁵ “ And kai when hotan you pray proseuchomai, do not ou be eimi like hōs the ho hypocrites hypokritēs, for hoti they love phileō to pray proseuchomai standing histēmi in en · ho synagogues synagōgē and kai on en · ho street platys corners gōnia · ho that hopōs they may be seen phainō by ho others anthrōpos. I tell legō you hymeis the truth amēn, they have received apechō · ho their autos reward misthos. ⁶ But de when hotan you sy pray proseuchomai, go eiserchomai into eis · ho your sy room tameion, and kai shuting kleiō · ho your sy door thura, pray proseuchomai to ho your sy Father patēr who ho is in en · ho secret kryptos; and kai · ho your sy Father patēr who ho sees blepō in en · ho secret kryptos will reward apodidōmi you sy.

¹⁶ “ And de when hotan you fast nēsteuō, do not mē put ginomai on a gloomy skythrōpos face as hōs the ho hypocrites hypokritēs do, for gar they disfigure aphanizō · ho their autos faces prosōpon so hopōs that they will appear phainō to ho others anthrōpos as fasting nēsteuō; I tell legō you hymeis the truth amēn, they have apechō · ho their autos reward misthos. ¹⁷ But de when you sy fast nēsteuō, anoint aleiphō your sy · ho head kephalē with oil and kai wash niptō · ho your sy face prosōpon, ¹⁸ so hopōs that you will not mē appear phainō to ho others anthrōpos as fasting nēsteuō, but alla by ho your sy Father patēr who ho is in en · ho secret kryphaios; and kai · ho your sy Father patēr who ho sees blepō in en · ho secret kryphaios will reward apodidōmi you sy.
