\subsection{Luke 17}
|
|
\subsubsection{Sin, Forgiveness, Faith, and Service}
|
|
\VS{1} But he said to his disciples:
|
|
It is impossible for stumblings not to come, but woe through whom they come.
|
|
\VS{2} It is better for him if [a] millstone is placed around his neck and he is hurled into the sea,
|
|
than that he stumble one of these little [ones].
|
|
\VS{3} Be paying heed to yourselves. If your brother sin, rebuke him, and if he repent, forgive him.
|
|
\VS{4} And if seven times during the day he sin against you and seven times he return to you saying:
|
|
I repent, forgive him.
|
|
|
|
\VS{5} And the apostles said to the Lord:
|
|
Add\footnote{Or ``Increase''} trust\fnPistis{} to us.
|
|
\VS{6} But the Lord said: If you have trust as [a] mustard seed,
|
|
you would say to this mulberry tree:
|
|
Be uprooted and be planted in the sea; and it would obey you.
|
|
|
|
\VS{7} But who among you having [a] slave plowing or shepherding,
|
|
who when he enter from the field he say to him: Straightway having come by, recline!
|
|
\VS{8} But rather he says to him:
|
|
Prepare something I may eat, and being girded, be serving me until I eat and drink,
|
|
and after these you eat and drink.
|
|
\VS{9} Does he have grace for the slave who did the [things] commanded?
|
|
\VS{10} Thus you also, when you do everything commanded to you, be saying that:
|
|
We are worthless slaves, what we owe\footnote{or ``ought,'' ``are obligated''} to do we have done.
|
|
|
|
\subsubsection{The Grateful Leper}
|
|
\VS{11} And it came to pass when proceeding to \Ierous{},
|
|
he was going through the midst of \Samareias and \Galilee.
|
|
\VS{12} And when he was entering one certain village, ten leprous men met him, who stood from afar.
|
|
\VS{13} And they lifted [their] voice saying: \Iesous master, have mercy upon us.
|
|
\VS{14} And seeing, he said to them: Having gone, show yourselves to the priest.
|
|
And it came to pass in the going away they were cleansed.
|
|
\VS{15} But one of them, seeing that he was healed, returned with [a] great voice praising God,
|
|
\VS{16} and fell on his face by his feet thanking him.
|
|
And he was [a] \Samaritan.
|
|
\VS{17} But answering, \Iesous said: Were not ten cleansed?
|
|
Where [are] the nine?
|
|
\VS{18} Were there not found having returned to give glory to God except this foreigner?
|
|
\VS{19} And he said to him, Having stood, be going, your trust\fnPistis{} has saved you.
|
|
|
|
\subsubsection{The Coming of the Kingdom}
|
|
\VS{20} Now when he was asked by the Pharisees when the Kingdom of God comes,
|
|
he answered them and said:
|
|
The Kingdom of God does not come with observations,
|
|
\VS{21} neither will they say:
|
|
Behold here or there [it is].
|
|
For behold the Kingdom of God is among%
|
|
\footnote{
|
|
"Within/among you." Could mean the kingdom is an inward reality (KJV: "within you")
|
|
or already present in their midst (NIV, NRSV: "in the midst of you").
|
|
Since Jesus is addressing a group of hostile Pharisees (v. 20) and presumably the Kingdom is not present in \textit{them},
|
|
many scholars favor "among you". Both translations are defensible.
|
|
} you\footnote{`You' is plural}.
|
|
|
|
\subsubsection{The Coming of the Son of Humanity}
|
|
\VS{22} But he said to his disciples:
|
|
The days will come when you will lust to see one of the days of the Son of Humanity\fnAnthropos and you will not see.
|
|
\VS{23} And they will say to you: Behold [he is] there, behold here.
|
|
Do not go out nor pursue.
|
|
\VS{24} For just as the lightning when it flashes shines from that under heaven to that under heaven,
|
|
thus will the Son of Humanity [come] in his day%
|
|
\footnote{``in his day'' W \vulgate{} \koine{}; omit: \papyrus{75}BD}.
|
|
\VS{25} But first it is necessary he suffer and be rejected by this generation.
|
|
\VS{26} And just as it came to pass in the days of \Noah, thus will it be in the days of the Son of Humanity.
|
|
\VS{27} They were eating, were drinking, were marrying, were being given in marriage,
|
|
until which day \Noah entered the ark, and the cataclysm came and all perished.
|
|
\VS{28} Likewise just as it came to pass in the days of \Lot.
|
|
They were eating, were drinking, were buying, were selling, were planting, were building;
|
|
\VS{29} but in the day \Lot departed from \Sodoma,
|
|
fire and brimstone rained from heaven and all perished.
|
|
\VS{30} According to such [things] will it be in the day the Son of Humanity is revealed.
|
|
\VS{31} In that day, whoever will be on the roof and his property in the house,
|
|
let\fnImperative{} him not come down to take it.
|
|
And the [one] in the field likewise let\fnImperative{} him not return to the [things] behind.
|
|
\VS{32} Remember \Lot's wife.
|
|
\VS{33} But whoever seeks to save%
|
|
\footnote{``save'': \sinaiticus{}AW\koine{}; ``make his psyche-life zoe-alive'': D; ``acquire his psyche-life'': \papyrus{75}B}
|
|
his psyche-life\fnPsyche{} will lose\fnApollumi{} it,
|
|
and whoever loses\fnApollumi{} [it] will make\footnote{or 'keep'} it \zoe{}-alive\fnZoe{}.
|
|
\VS{34} I say to you, in this\footnote{i.e. the aforementioned} night two will be in one bed ---
|
|
the one will be received, the other will be left.
|
|
\VS{35} There will be two grinding together\footnote{may refer to a hand mill normally operated by two women.} ---
|
|
the one will be received, the other will be left.
|
|
\VS{36}\footnote{add vs. 36: ``[There will be] two in [the] field --- one will be received, and the other left.'' D \vulgate{}; omit vs. 36: BDW\koine{}\hesychian{}}
|
|
\VS{37} And answering they say to him:
|
|
Where Lord? But he said to them: Where the body\footnote{or `carcass'', `corpse'} [is], there also will the vultures be gathered.
