¹A privolajúc si svojich dvanástich učeníkov dal im právo a moc nad nečistými duchmi, aby ich vyháňali a uzdravovali každý neduh a každú chorobu.

¹And having called to him his twelve disciples, he gave to them power over unclean spirits, so as to be casting them out, and to be healing every sickness, and every malady.

²A mená tých dvanástich apoštolov sú tieto: prvý Šimon, zvaný Peter, a Andrej, jeho brat, a Jakob Zebedeov a Ján, jeho brat.

²And of the twelve apostles the names are these: first, Simon, who is called Peter, and Andrew his brother; James of Zebedee, and John his brother;

³Filip, Bartolomej, Tomáš, colný Matúš, Jakob Alfeov, Lebeus, ktorému bolo dané prímeno Taddeus,

³Philip, and Bartholomew; Thomas, and Matthew the tax-gatherer; James of Alpheus, and Lebbeus who was surnamed Thaddeus;

⁴Šimon Kananitský a Judáš Iškariotský, ktorý ho i zradil.

⁴Simon the Cananite, and Judas Iscariot, who did also deliver him up.

⁵Týchto dvanástich poslal Ježiš a prikázal im: Na cestu pohanov neodídite a do mesta Samaritánov nevojdite;

⁵These twelve did Jesus send forth, having given command to them, saying, `To the way of the nations go not away, and into a city of the Samaritans go not in,

⁶ale radšej iďte k ztrateným ovciam domu Izraelovho.

⁶and be going rather unto the lost sheep of the house of Israel.

⁷Iďte a kážte hovoriac, že sa priblížilo nebeské kráľovstvo.

⁷`And, going on, proclaim saying that, the reign of the heavens hath come nigh;

⁸Nemocných uzdravujte, malomocných očisťujte, mŕtvych krieste, démonov vyháňajte; darmo ste dostali, darmo dajte.

⁸infirm ones be healing, lepers be cleansing, dead be raising, demons be casting out — freely ye did receive, freely give.

⁹Neberte so sebou zlata ani striebra ani obecného kovu do svojich opaskov

⁹`Provide not gold, nor silver, nor brass in your girdles,

¹⁰ani kapsy na cestu ani po dvoje sukieň ani sandálov ani palice, lebo robotník je hoden svojho pokrmu.

¹⁰nor scrip for the way, nor two coats, nor sandals, nor staff — for the workman is worthy of his nourishment.

¹¹A do ktoréhokoľvek mesta alebo mestečka vojdete, dopýtajte sa, kto by v ňom bol toho hodný; a tam zostaňte, dokiaľ nevyjdete.

¹¹`And into whatever city or village ye may enter, inquire ye who in it is worthy, and there abide, till ye may go forth.

¹²A vchádzajúc do domu pozdravte ho.

¹²And coming to the house salute it,

¹³A keď bude dom hodný, nech prijde naň váš pokoj; a keď nebude hodný, nech sa váš pokoj navráti k vám.

¹³and if indeed the house be worthy, let your peace come upon it; and if it be not worthy, let your peace turn back to you.

¹⁴A ktokoľvek by vás neprijal ani nepočul vašich slov, idúc z toho domu alebo z toho mesta vytraste prach svojich nôh.

¹⁴`And whoever may not receive you nor hear your words, coming forth from that house or city, shake off the dust of your feet,

¹⁵Ameň vám hovorím, že znesiteľnejšie bude zemi Sodomänov a Gomoranov v deň súdu než tomu mestu.

¹⁵verily I say to you, It shall be more tolerable for the land of Sodom and Gomorrah in the day of judgment than for that city.

¹⁶Hľa, ja vás posielam ako ovce medzi vlkov. Tedy buďte opatrní jako hadi a prostí jako holubi.

¹⁶`Lo, I do send you forth as sheep in the midst of wolves, be ye therefore wise as the serpents, and simple as the doves.

¹⁷Vystríhajte sa ľudí, lebo vás budú vydávať staväjúc vás pred vysoké cirkevné rady a vo svojich synagógach vás budú bičovať,

¹⁷And, take ye heed of men, for they will give you up to sanhedrims, and in their synagogues they will scourge you,

¹⁸áno i pred vladárov i pred kráľov budete vodení pre mňa, na svedoctvo im aj pohanom.

¹⁸and before governors and kings ye shall be brought for my sake, for a testimony to them and to the nations.

¹⁹A keď vás vydajú, nestarajte sa o to, jako alebo čo by ste mali hovoriť. Lebo vám bude dané v tú hodinu, čo budete mať hovoriť.

¹⁹`And whenever they may deliver you up, be not anxious how or what ye may speak, for it shall be given you in that hour what ye shall speak;

²⁰Lebo nie ste to vy, ktorí hovoríte, ale vašeho Otca Duch, ktorý hovorí vo vás.

²⁰for ye are not the speakers, but the Spirit of your Father that is speaking in you.

²¹Lebo brat brata vydá na smrť a otec dieťa, a povstanú deti na rodičov a usmrtia ich.

²¹`And brother shall deliver up brother to death, and father child, and children shall rise up against parents, and shall put them to death,

²²A budete nenávidení od všetkých pre moje meno, ale ten, kto zotrvá do konca, bude spasený.

²²and ye shall be hated by all because of my name, but he who hath endured to the end, he shall be saved.

²³A keď vás budú prenasledovať v tomto meste, utečte do iného; lebo ameň vám hovorím, že nedokončíte miest Izraelových, dokiaľ neprijde Syn človeka.

²³`And whenever they may persecute you in this city, flee to the other, for verily I say to you, ye may not have completed the cities of Israel till the Son of Man may come.

²⁴Učeník nie je nad svojho učiteľa ani sluha nad svojho pána;

²⁴`A disciple is not above the teacher, nor a servant above his lord;

²⁵dosť je učeníkovi, aby bol ako jeho učiteľ, a sluha, aby bol ako jeho pán. Ak domáceho pána nazvali Belzebúbom, čím väčšmi jeho domácich!

²⁵sufficient to the disciple that he may be as his teacher, and the servant as his lord; if the master of the house they did call Beelzeboul, how much more those of his household?

²⁶Teda nebojte sa ich! Lebo nič nie je skryté, čo by nemalo byť odkryté, ani tajné, čo by sa nemalo zvedieť.

²⁶`Ye may not, therefore, fear them, for there is nothing covered, that shall not be revealed, and hid, that shall not be known;

²⁷Čo vám hovorím vo tme, povedzte na svetle, a to, čo počujete v ucho, hlásajte na domoch.

²⁷that which I tell you in the darkness, speak in the light, and that which you hear at the ear, proclaim on the house-tops.

²⁸A nebojte sa tých, ktorí vraždia telo a ktorí nemôžu zavraždiť dušu; ale sa radšej bojte toho, ktorý môže i dušu i telo zatratiť v pekle.

²⁸`And be not afraid of those killing the body, and are not able to kill the soul, but fear rather Him who is able both soul and body to destroy in gehenna.

²⁹Či sa nepredávajú dva vrabce za groš? Ale ani jeden z nich nepadne na zem bez vášho Otca.

²⁹`Are not two sparrows sold for an assar? and one of them shall not fall on the ground without your Father;

³⁰Ale vám sú ešte aj len všetky vlasy na hlave spočítané!

³⁰and of you — even the hairs of the head are all numbered;

³¹Tedy nebojte sa, vy ste drahší nad mnoho vrabcov.

³¹be not therefore afraid, than many sparrows ye are better.

³²Každého tedy, kto mňa vyzná pred ľuďmi, vyznám i ja pred svojím Otcom, ktorý je v nebesiach.

³²`Every one, therefore, who shall confess in me before men, I also will confess in him before my Father who is in the heavens;

³³A kto by mňa zaprel pred ľuďmi, toho i ja zapriem pred svojím Otcom, ktorý je v nebesiach.

³³and whoever shall deny me before men, I also will deny him before my Father who is in the heavens.

³⁴Nedomnievajte sa, že som prišiel dať pokoj na zem; neprišiel som dať pokoj, ale meč.

³⁴`Ye may not suppose that I came to put peace on the earth; I did not come to put peace, but a sword;

³⁵Lebo som prišiel rozdeliť človeka proti jeho otcovi a dcéru proti jej materi a nevestu proti jej svokre,

³⁵for I came to set a man at variance against his father, and a daughter against her mother, and a daughter-in-law against her mother-in-law,

³⁶a nepriateľmi človeka budú jeho domáci.

³⁶and the enemies of a man are those of his household.

³⁷Ten, kto má radšej otca alebo mater ako mňa, nie je ma hodný; a kto má radšej syna, alebo dcéru ako mňa, nie je ma hodný;

³⁷`He who is loving father or mother above me, is not worthy of me, and he who is loving son or daughter above me, is not worthy of me,

³⁸a kto neberie svojho kríža a nejde za mnou, nie je ma hodný.

³⁸and whoever doth not receive his cross and follow after me, is not worthy of me.

³⁹Kto najde svoju dušu, ztratí ju, a kto pre mňa ztratí svoju dušu, najde ju.

³⁹`He who found his life shall lose it, and he who lost his life for my sake shall find it.

⁴⁰Kto vás prijíma, mňa prijíma, a kto mňa prijíma, prijíma toho, ktorý ma poslal.

⁴⁰`He who is receiving you doth receive me, and he who is receiving me doth receive Him who sent me,

⁴¹Kto prijíma proroka v mene proroka, dostane odplatu proroka, a kto prijíma spravedlivého v mene spravedlivého, dostane odplatu spravedlivého.

⁴¹he who is receiving a prophet in the name of a prophet, shall receive a prophet`s reward, and he who is receiving a righteous man in the name of a righteous man, shall receive a righteous man`s reward,

⁴²A ktokoľvek by napojil jedného z týchto malých čo len pohárom čerstvej vody, v mene učeníka, ameň vám hovorím, že neztratí svojej odplaty.

⁴²and whoever may give to drink to one of these little ones a cup of cold water only in the name of a disciple, verily I say to you, he may not lose his reward.`
