1 A nd he arose from thence and cometh into the borders of Judaea and beyond the Jordan: and multitudes come together unto him again; and, as he was wont, he taught them again.

Y PARTIENDOSE de allí, vino á los términos de Judea y tras el Jordán: y volvió el pueblo á juntarse á él; y de nuevo les enseñaba como solía.

2 A nd there came unto him Pharisees, and asked him, Is it lawful for a man to put away his wife? trying him.

Y llegándose los Fariseos, le preguntaron, para tentarle, si era lícito al marido repudiar á su mujer.

3 A nd he answered and said unto them, What did Moses command you?

Mas él respondiendo, les dijo: ¿Qué os mandó Moisés?

4 A nd they said, Moses suffered to write a bill of divorcement, and to put her away.

Y ellos dijeron: Moisés permitió escribir carta de divorcio, y repudiar.

5 B ut Jesus said unto them, For your hardness of heart he wrote you this commandment.

Y respondiendo Jesús, les dijo: Por la dureza de vuestro corazón os escribió este mandamiento;

6 B ut from the beginning of the creation, Male and female made he them.

Pero al principio de la creación, varón y hembra los hizo Dios.

7 F or this cause shall a man leave his father and mother, and shall cleave to his wife;

Por esto dejará el hombre á su padre y á su madre, y se juntará á su mujer.

8 a nd the two shall become one flesh: so that they are no more two, but one flesh.

Y los que eran dos, serán hechos una carne: así que no son más dos, sino una carne.

9 W hat therefore God hath joined together, let not man put asunder.

Pues lo que Dios juntó, no lo aparte el hombre.

10 A nd in the house the disciples asked him again of this matter.

Y en casa volvieron los discípulos á preguntarle de lo mismo.

11 A nd he saith unto them, Whosoever shall put away his wife, and marry another, committeth adultery against her:

Y les dice: Cualquiera que repudiare á su mujer, y se casare con otra, comete adulterio contra ella:

12 a nd if she herself shall put away her husband, and marry another, she committeth adultery.

Y si la mujer repudiare á su marido y se casare con otro, comete adulterio.

13 A nd they were bringing unto him little children, that he should touch them: and the disciples rebuked them.

Y le presentaban niños para que los tocase; y los discípulos reñían á los que los presentaban.

14 B ut when Jesus saw it, he was moved with indignation, and said unto them, Suffer the little children to come unto me; forbid them not: for to such belongeth the kingdom of God.

Y viéndolo Jesús, se enojó, y les dijo: Dejad los niños venir, y no se lo estorbéis; porque de los tales es el reino de Dios.

15 V erily I say unto you, Whosoever shall not receive the kingdom of God as a little child, he shall in no wise enter therein.

De cierto os digo, que el que no recibiere el reino de Dios como un niño, no entrará en él.

16 A nd he took them in his arms, and blessed them, laying his hands upon them.

Y tomándolos en los brazos, poniendo las manos sobre ellos, los bendecía.

17 A nd as he was going forth into the way, there ran one to him, and kneeled to him, and asked him, Good Teacher, what shall I do that I may inherit eternal life?

Y saliendo él para ir su camino, vino uno corriendo, é hincando la rodilla delante de él, le preguntó: Maestro bueno, ¿qué haré para poseer la vida eterna?

18 A nd Jesus said unto him, Why callest thou me good? none is good save one, even God.

Y Jesús le dijo: ¿Por qué me dices bueno? Ninguno hay bueno, sino sólo uno, Dios.

19 T hou knowest the commandments, Do not kill, Do not commit adultery, Do not steal, Do not bear false witness, Do not defraud, Honor thy father and mother.

Los mandamientos sabes: No adulteres: No mates: No hurtes: No digas falso testimonio: No defraudes: Honra á tu padre y á tu madre.

20 A nd he said unto him, Teacher, all these things have I observed from my youth.

El entonces respondiendo, le dijo: Maestro, todo esto he guardado desde mi mocedad.

21 A nd Jesus looking upon him loved him, and said unto him, One thing thou lackest: go, sell whatsoever thou hast, and give to the poor, and thou shalt have treasure in heaven: and come, follow me.

Entonces Jesús mirándole, amóle, y díjole: Una cosa te falta: ve, vende todo lo que tienes, y da á los pobres, y tendrás tesoro en el cielo; y ven, sígueme, tomando tu cruz.

22 B ut his countenance fell at the saying, and he went away sorrowful: for he was one that had great possessions.

Mas él, entristecido por esta palabra, se fué triste, porque tenía muchas posesiones.

23 A nd Jesus looked round about, and saith unto his disciples, How hardly shall they that have riches enter into the kingdom of God!

Entonces Jesús, mirando alrededor, dice á sus discípulos: ­Cuán dificilmente entrarán en el reino de Dios los que tienen riquezas!

24 A nd the disciples were amazed at his words. But Jesus answereth again, and saith unto them, Children, how hard is it for them that trust in riches to enter into the kingdom of God!

Y los discípulos se espantaron de sus palabras; mas Jesús respondiendo, les volvió á decir: ­Hijos, cuán dificil es entrar en el reino de Dios, los que confían en las riquezas!

25 I t is easier for a camel to go through a needle's eye, than for a rich man to enter into the kingdom of God.

Más fácil es pasar un camello por el ojo de una aguja, que el rico entrar en el reino de Dios.

26 A nd they were astonished exceedingly, saying unto him, Then who can be saved?

Y ellos se espantaban más, diciendo dentro de sí: ¿Y quién podrá salvarse?

27 J esus looking upon them saith, With men it is impossible, but not with God: for all things are possible with God.

Entonces Jesús mirándolos, dice: Para los hombres es imposible; mas para Dios, no; porque todas las cosas son posibles para Dios.

28 P eter began to say unto him, Lo, we have left all, and have followed thee.

Entonces Pedro comenzó á decirle: He aquí, nosotros hemos dejado todas las cosas, y te hemos seguido.

29 J esus said, Verily I say unto you, There is no man that hath left house, or brethren, or sisters, or mother, or father, or children, or lands, for my sake, and for the gospel's sake,

Y respondiendo Jesús, dijo: De cierto os digo, que no hay ninguno que haya dejado casa, ó hermanos, ó hermanas, ó padre, ó madre, ó mujer, ó hijos, ó heredades, por causa de mí y del evangelio,

30 b ut he shall receive a hundredfold now in this time, houses, and brethren, and sisters, and mothers, and children, and lands, with persecutions; and in the world to come eternal life.

Que no reciba cien tantos ahora en este tiempo, casas, y hermanos, y hermanas, y madres, é hijos, y heredades, con persecuciones; y en el siglo venidero la vida eterna.

31 B ut many that are first shall be last; and the last first.

Empero muchos primeros serán postreros, y postreros primeros.

32 A nd they were on the way, going up to Jerusalem; and Jesus was going before them: and they were amazed; and they that followed were afraid. And he took again the twelve, and began to tell them the things that were to happen unto him,

Y estaban en el camino subiendo á Jerusalem; y Jesús iba delante de ellos, y se espantaban, y le seguían con miedo: entonces volviendo á tomar á los doce aparte, les comenzó á decir las cosas que le habían de acontecer:

33 s aying, Behold, we go up to Jerusalem; and the Son of man shall be delivered unto the chief priests and the scribes; and they shall condemn him to death, and shall deliver him unto the Gentiles:

He aquí subimos á Jerusalem, y el Hijo del hombre será entregado á los principes de los sacerdotes, y á los escribas, y le condenarán á muerte, y le entregarán á los Gentiles:

34 a nd they shall mock him, and shall spit upon him, and shall scourge him, and shall kill him; and after three days he shall rise again.

Y le escarnecerán, y le azotarán, y escupirán en él, y le matarán; mas al tercer día resucitará.

35 A nd there come near unto him James and John, the sons of Zebedee, saying unto him, Teacher, we would that thou shouldest do for us whatsoever we shall ask of thee.

Entonces Jacobo y Juan, hijos de Zebedeo, se llegaron á él, diciendo: Maestro, querríamos que nos hagas lo que pidiéremos.

36 A nd he said unto them, What would ye that I should do for you?

Y él les dijo: ¿Qué queréis que os haga?

37 A nd they said unto him, Grant unto us that we may sit, one on thy right hand, and one on thy left hand, in thy glory.

Y ellos le dijeron: Danos que en tu gloria nos sentemos el uno á tu diestra, y el otro á tu siniestra.

38 B ut Jesus said unto them, Ye know not what ye ask. Are ye able to drink the cup that I drink? or to be baptized with the baptism that I am baptized with?

Entonces Jesús les dijo: No sabéis lo que pedís. ¿Podéis beber del vaso que yo bebo, ó ser bautizados del bautismo de que yo soy bautizado?

39 A nd they said unto him, We are able. And Jesus said unto them, The cup that I drink ye shall drink; and with the baptism that I am baptized withal shall ye be baptized:

Y ellos dijeron: Podemos. Y Jesús les dijo: A la verdad, del vaso que yo bebo, beberéis; y del bautismo de que soy bautizado, seréis bautizados.

40 b ut to sit on my right hand or on my left hand is not mine to give; but it is for them for whom it hath been prepared.

Mas que os sentéis á mi diestra y á mi siniestra, no es mío darlo, sino á quienes está aparejado.

41 A nd when the ten heard it, they began to be moved with indignation concerning James and John.

Y como lo oyeron los diez, comenzaron á enojarse de Jacobo y de Juan.

42 A nd Jesus called them to him, and saith unto them, Ye know that they who are accounted to rule over the Gentiles lord it over them; and their great ones exercise authority over them.

Mas Jesús, llamándolos, les dice: Sabéis que los que se ven ser príncipes entre las gentes, se enseñorean de ellas, y los que entre ellas son grandes, tienen sobre ellas potestad.

43 B ut it is not so among you: but whosoever would become great among you, shall be your minister;

Mas no será así entre vosotros: antes cualquiera que quisiere hacerse grande entre vosotros, será vuestro servidor;

44 a nd whosoever would be first among you, shall be servant of all.

Y cualquiera de vosotros que quisiere hacerse el primero, será siervo de todos.

45 F or the Son of man also came not to be ministered unto, but to minister, and to give his life a ransom for many.

Porque el Hijo del hombre tampoco vino para ser servido, mas para servir, y dar su vida en rescate por muchos.

46 A nd they come to Jericho: and as he went out from Jericho, with his disciples and a great multitude, the son of Timaeus, Bartimaeus, a blind beggar, was sitting by the way side.

Entonces vienen á Jericó: y saliendo él de Jericó y sus discípulos y una gran compañía, Bartimeo el ciego, hijo de Timeo, estaba sentado junto al camino mendigando.

47 A nd when he heard that it was Jesus the Nazarene, he began to cry out, and say, Jesus, thou son of David, have mercy on me.

Y oyendo que era Jesús el Nazareno, comenzó á dar voces y decir: Jesús, Hijo de David, ten misericordia de mí.

48 A nd many rebuked him, that he should hold his peace: but he cried out the more a great deal, Thou son of David, have mercy on me.

Y muchos le reñían, que callase: mas él daba mayores voces: Hijo de David, ten misericordia de mí.

49 A nd Jesus stood still, and said, Call ye him. And they call the blind man, saying unto him, Be of good cheer: rise, he calleth thee.

Entonces Jesús parándose, mandó llamarle: y llaman al ciego, diciéndole: Ten confianza: levántate, te llama.

50 A nd he, casting away his garment, sprang up, and came to Jesus.

El entonces, echando su capa, se levantó, y vino á Jesús.

51 A nd Jesus answered him, and said, What wilt thou that I should do unto thee? And the blind man said unto him, Rabboni, that I may receive my sight.

Y respondiendo Jesús, le dice: ¿Qué quieres que te haga? Y el ciego le dice: Maestro, que cobre la vista.

52 A nd Jesus said unto him, Go thy way; thy faith hath made thee whole. And straightway he received his sight, and followed him in the way.

Y Jesús le dijo: Ve, tu fe te ha salvado. Y luego cobró la vista, y seguía á Jesús en el camino.
