¹And it came to pass, that, as he was praying in a certain place, when he ceased, one of his disciples said unto him, Lord, teach us to pray, as John also taught his disciples.

¹In zgodi se, ko je na nekem kraju molil, da mu reče, ko je nehal, eden učencev njegovih: Gospod, nauči nas moliti, kakor je tudi Janez naučil učence svoje.

²And he said unto them, When ye pray, say, Our Father which art in heaven, Hallowed be thy name. Thy kingdom come. Thy will be done, as in heaven, so in earth.

²On pa jim reče: Kadar molite, recite: Oče naš, ki si v nebesih, posvečeno bodi ime tvoje. Pridi kraljestvo tvoje. Zgodi se volja tvoja kakor v nebesih tudi na zemlji.

³Give us day by day our daily bread.

³Kruh naš vsakdanji daj nam vsak dan.

⁴And forgive us our sins; for we also forgive every one that is indebted to us. And lead us not into temptation; but deliver us from evil.

⁴In odpusti nam grehe naše, ker tudi mi odpuščamo vsakemu dolžniku svojemu. In ne vpelji nas v izkušnjavo, temuč reši nas zlega.

⁵And he said unto them, Which of you shall have a friend, and shall go unto him at midnight, and say unto him, Friend, lend me three loaves;

⁵In reče jim: Kdo izmed vas ima prijatelja, in pojde k njemu opolnoči in mu poreče: Prijatelj, posodi mi tri hlebe,

⁶For a friend of mine in his journey is come to me, and I have nothing to set before him?

⁶ker je prijatelj moj prišel s pota k meni, pa mu nimam kaj postaviti.

⁷And he from within shall answer and say, Trouble me not: the door is now shut, and my children are with me in bed; I cannot rise and give thee.

⁷Oni pa bi odznotraj odgovoril in rekel: Ne bodi mi nadležen: duri so že zaprte in otroci moji so z menoj v postelji; ne morem vstati in ti dati.

⁸I say unto you, Though he will not rise and give him, because he is his friend, yet because of his importunity he will rise and give him as many as he needeth.

⁸Pravim vam, čeprav ne vstane, da bi mu dal zato, ker mu je prijatelj, vstane vsaj zaradi nadležnega moledovanja njegovega in mu da, kolikor potrebuje.

⁹And I say unto you, Ask, and it shall be given you; seek, and ye shall find; knock, and it shall be opened unto you.

⁹In jaz vam pravim: Prosite, in dalo se vam bo; iščite, in našli boste; trkajte, in odprlo se vam bo.

¹⁰For every one that asketh receiveth; and he that seeketh findeth; and to him that knocketh it shall be opened.

¹⁰Kajti vsak, kdor prosi, prejme, in kdor išče, najde, in kdor trka, se mu odpre.

¹¹If a son shall ask bread of any of you that is a father, will he give him a stone? or if he ask a fish, will he for a fish give him a serpent?

¹¹Kdo izmed vas pa je oče, in če ga prosi sin kruha, pa mu da kamen? ali če prosi ribe, pa mu da namesto ribe kačo?

¹²Or if he shall ask an egg, will he offer him a scorpion?

¹²ali če prosi jajca, pa mu da škorpijona?

¹³If ye then, being evil, know how to give good gifts unto your children: how much more shall your heavenly Father give the Holy Spirit to them that ask him?

¹³Če torej vi, ki ste hudobni, znate dobre darove dajati otrokom svojim, koliko bolj bo dal Oče nebeški svetega Duha tem, ki ga prosijo.

¹⁴And he was casting out a devil, and it was dumb. And it came to pass, when the devil was gone out, the dumb spake; and the people wondered.

¹⁴In izganjal je zlega duha, in ta je bil mutast. Zgodi se pa, ko je zli duh izšel, da mutec izpregovori; in množice se začudijo.

¹⁵But some of them said, He casteth out devils through Beelzebub the chief of the devils.

¹⁵A nekateri izmed njih reko: Z Belzebulom, poglavarjem hudičev, izganja zle duhove.

¹⁶And others, tempting him, sought of him a sign from heaven.

¹⁶Drugi pa, izkušajoč ga, zahtevajo od njega znamenja z neba.

¹⁷But he, knowing their thoughts, said unto them, Every kingdom divided against itself is brought to desolation; and a house divided against a house falleth.

¹⁷On pa, vedoč njih misli, jim reče: Vsako kraljestvo, ki se je samo zoper sebe razdvojilo, propade, in dom, zoper sebe razdvojen, razpade.

¹⁸If Satan also be divided against himself, how shall his kingdom stand? because ye say that I cast out devils through Beelzebub.

¹⁸Če se je pa tudi satan zoper sebe razdvojil, kako bo ostalo kraljestvo njegovo? ker pravite, da z Belzebulom izganjam zle duhove.

¹⁹And if I by Beelzebub cast out devils, by whom do your sons cast them out? therefore shall they be your judges.

¹⁹A če jaz z Belzebulom izganjam zle duhove, s čigavo pomočjo jih izganjajo sinovi vaši? Zato vam bodo oni sodniki.

²⁰But if I with the finger of God cast out devils, no doubt the kingdom of God is come upon you.

²⁰Če pa s prstom Božjim izganjam zle duhove, torej je že prišlo k vam kraljestvo Božje.

²¹When a strong man armed keepeth his palace, his goods are in peace:

²¹Kadar se močni dobro oboroži in varuje dvor svoj, je v miru imetje njegovo;

²²But when a stronger than he shall come upon him, and overcome him, he taketh from him all his armour wherein he trusted, and divideth his spoils.

²²ako pa pride nanj močnejši od njega in ga premaga, mu pobere vse orožje njegovo, v katero je upal, in razdeli njegov plen.

²³He that is not with me is against me: and he that gathereth not with me scattereth.

²³Kdor ni z menoj, je zoper mene, in kdor ne zbira z menoj, razsiplje.

²⁴When the unclean spirit is gone out of a man, he walketh through dry places, seeking rest; and finding none, he saith, I will return unto my house whence I came out.

²⁴Kadar nečisti duh izide iz človeka, hodi po suhih krajih in išče pokoja; in ko ga ne najde, pravi: Vrnil se bom na dom svoj, odkoder sem izšel.

²⁵And when he cometh, he findeth it swept and garnished.

²⁵In ko pride tja, ga najde pometenega in olepšanega.

²⁶Then goeth he, and taketh to him seven other spirits more wicked than himself; and they enter in, and dwell there: and the last state of that man is worse than the first.

²⁶Tedaj odide in vzame sedem drugih duhov, hujših od sebe, in gredo vanj in tu prebivajo: in poslednje tega človeka postane hujše od prvega.

²⁷And it came to pass, as he spake these things, a certain woman of the company lifted up her voice, and said unto him, Blessed is the womb that bare thee, and the paps which thou hast sucked.

²⁷Zgodi se pa, ko je to govoril, da povzdigne neka žena izmed množice glas svoj in mu reče: Blagor telesu, ki te je nosilo, in prsim, ki si jih sesal!

²⁸But he said, Yea rather, blessed are they that hear the word of God, and keep it.

²⁸On pa veli: Veliko bolj blagor tem, ki besedo Božjo poslušajo in jo hranijo!

²⁹And when the people were gathered thick together, he began to say, This is an evil generation: they seek a sign; and there shall no sign be given it, but the sign of Jonas the prophet.

²⁹Ko so se pa množice zbirale pri njem, jim začne govoriti: Ta rod je hudoben rod: znamenja išče, ali ne bo se mu dalo znamenje, razen znamenja Jona proroka.

³⁰For as Jonas was a sign unto the Ninevites, so shall also the Son of man be to this generation.

³⁰Kakor je bil namreč Jona znamenje Ninivljanom, tako bo tudi Sin človekov znamenje temu rodu.

³¹The queen of the south shall rise up in the judgment with the men of this generation, and condemn them: for she came from the utmost parts of the earth to hear the wisdom of Solomon; and, behold, a greater than Solomon is here.

³¹Kraljica od juga vstane na sodbo z možmi tega rodu in jih obsodi; kajti prišla je od kraja sveta poslušat modrost Salomonovo; in glej, večji je tu od Salomona.

³²The men of Nineve shall rise up in the judgment with this generation, and shall condemn it: for they repented at the preaching of Jonas; and, behold, a greater than Jonas is here.

³²Možje Ninivljani vstanejo na sodbo s tem rodom in ga obsodijo; kajti izpokorili so se po propovedi Jonovi; in glej, večji je tu od Jona.

³³No man, when he hath lighted a candle, putteth it in a secret place, neither under a bushel, but on a candlestick, that they which come in may see the light.

³³Nihče pa ne dene sveče, ko jo prižge, na skrit kraj, tudi ne pod mernik, ampak na svečnik, da vidijo luč, kateri prihajajo.

³⁴The light of the body is the eye: therefore when thine eye is single, thy whole body also is full of light; but when thine eye is evil, thy body also is full of darkness.

³⁴Svetilo telesu tvojemu je oko: kadar je torej oko tvoje zdravo, je svetlo tudi vse telo tvoje; ko pa je pokvarjeno, je temno tudi telo tvoje.

³⁵Take heed therefore that the light which is in thee be not darkness.

³⁵Zato glej, da ne bo luč, ki je v tebi, tema.

³⁶If thy whole body therefore be full of light, having no part dark, the whole shall be full of light, as when the bright shining of a candle doth give thee light.

³⁶Če je torej vse telo tvoje svetlo in nima nobenega temnega uda, bo vseskozi svetlo, kakor kadar te svetilnica obsije z jasno svetlobo.

³⁷And as he spake, a certain Pharisee besought him to dine with him: and he went in, and sat down to meat.

³⁷Medtem pa, ko je govoril, ga zaprosi neki farizej, naj bi obedoval pri njem. Prišedši pa tja, sede za mizo.

³⁸And when the Pharisee saw it, he marvelled that he had not first washed before dinner.

³⁸Ko pa to vidi farizej, se začudi, da se ni prej umil pred obedom.

³⁹And the Lord said unto him, Now do ye Pharisees make clean the outside of the cup and the platter; but your inward part is full of ravening and wickedness.

³⁹Gospod mu pa reče: Sedaj vi farizeji čistite kozarec in skledo odzunaj, kar je pa znotraj vas, je polno ropa in hudobije.

⁴⁰Ye fools, did not he that made that which is without make that which is within also?

⁴⁰Neumneži, mar ni ta, ki je naredil to, kar je zunaj, naredil tudi tega, kar je znotraj?

⁴¹But rather give alms of such things as ye have; and, behold, all things are clean unto you.

⁴¹Sicer pa dajte v miloščino tega, kar je notri, in glej, vse vam je čisto.

⁴²But woe unto you, Pharisees! for ye tithe mint and rue and all manner of herbs, and pass over judgment and the love of God: these ought ye to have done, and not to leave the other undone.

⁴²Ali gorje vam farizejem, da dajete desetino od mete in od rute in od vsakega zelišča, izogibate se pa sodbe in ljubezni Božje: to je bilo treba storiti in onega ne opustiti.

⁴³Woe unto you, Pharisees! for ye love the uppermost seats in the synagogues, and greetings in the markets.

⁴³Gorje vam farizejem, da ljubite prve stole v shodnicah in pozdrave po ulicah.

⁴⁴Woe unto you, scribes and Pharisees, hypocrites! for ye are as graves which appear not, and the men that walk over them are not aware of them.

⁴⁴Gorje vam, da ste kakor skriti grobovi, po katerih ljudje hodijo in ne vedo zanje.

⁴⁵Then answered one of the lawyers, and said unto him, Master, thus saying thou reproachest us also.

⁴⁵Odgovori pa eden izmed učenikov postave in mu reče: Učenik, s takimi besedami sramotiš tudi nas.

⁴⁶And he said, Woe unto you also, ye lawyers! for ye lade men with burdens grievous to be borne, and ye yourselves touch not the burdens with one of your fingers.

⁴⁶On pa mu reče: Gorje tudi vam učenikom postave, ker nakladate ljudem neznosne butare, a sami se niti z enim prstom ne dotaknete butar.

⁴⁷Woe unto you! for ye build the sepulchres of the prophets, and your fathers killed them.

⁴⁷Gorje vam, da zidate grobne spomenike prorokom, očetje vaši pa so jih pobili.

⁴⁸Truly ye bear witness that ye allow the deeds of your fathers: for they indeed killed them, and ye build their sepulchres.

⁴⁸S tem torej ste priče delom očetov svojih in jih odobravate: kajti oni so jih pobili, a vi jim zidate nadgrobke.

⁴⁹Therefore also said the wisdom of God, I will send them prophets and apostles, and some of them they shall slay and persecute:

⁴⁹Zato je tudi modrost Božje rekla: Pošljem k njim proroke in apostole, in nekatere njih umore in preženo,

⁵⁰That the blood of all the prophets, which was shed from the foundation of the world, may be required of this generation;

⁵⁰da se bo zahtevala od tega rodu vseh prorokov kri, ki se je prelila od začetka sveta,

⁵¹From the blood of Abel unto the blood of Zacharias which perished between the altar and the temple: verily I say unto you, It shall be required of this generation.

⁵¹od krvi Abelove, do krvi Zaharijeve, ki je poginil med oltarjem in svetiščem. Da, pravim vam, zahtevala se bo od tega rodu.

⁵²Woe unto you, lawyers! for ye have taken away the key of knowledge: ye entered not in yourselves, and them that were entering in ye hindered.

⁵²Gorje vam učenikom postave, ker ste vzeli ključ do spoznanja: sami niste šli do njega, a tem, ki so hoteli vstopiti, ste zabranili.

⁵³And as he said these things unto them, the scribes and the Pharisees began to urge him vehemently, and to provoke him to speak of many things:

⁵³Ko je pa odšel odtod, začno pismarji in farizeji zelo pritiskati nanj in ga vpraševati o raznoterih rečeh,prežeč nanj, da bi kaj ujeli iz ust njegovih.

⁵⁴Laying wait for him, and seeking to catch something out of his mouth, that they might accuse him.

⁵⁴prežeč nanj, da bi kaj ujeli iz ust njegovih.
