Τὰ τέκνα ὑπακούετε τοῖς γονεῦσιν κατὰ πάντα τοῦτο γὰρ ἐστιν εὐάρεστόν τῷ κυρίῳ
Children, obey your parents in all things: for this is well pleasing unto the Lord.
שְׁמַע לְאָבִיךָ זֶה יְלָדֶךָ וְאַל-תָּבוּז כִּֽי-זָקְנָה אִמֶּֽךָ׃
Hearken unto thy father that begat thee, and despise not thy mother when she is old.
נְצֹר בְּנִי מִצְוַת אָבִיךָ וְאַל-תִּטֹּשׁ תּוֹרַת אִמֶּֽךָ׃
My son, keep thy father's commandment, and forsake not the law of thy mother:
שְׁמַע בְּנִי מוּסַר אָבִיךָ וְאַל-תִּטֹּשׁ תּוֹרַת אִמֶּֽךָ׃
My son, hear the instruction of thy father, and forsake not the law of thy mother:
ὁ λόγος τοῦ Χριστοῦ ἐνοικείτω ἐν ὑμῖν πλουσίως ἐν πάσῃ σοφίᾳ διδάσκοντες καὶ νουθετοῦντες ἑαυτοὺς ψαλμοῖς καὶ ὕμνοις καὶ ᾠδαῖς πνευματικαῖς ἐν χάριτι ᾄδοντες ἐν τῇ καρδίᾳ ὑμῶν τῷ Κυρίῳ
Let the of word Christ dwell in you richly in all wisdom; teaching and admonishing one another in psalms and hymns and spiritual songs, singing with grace in your hearts to the Lord.
כִּֽי-יִהְיֶה לְאִישׁ בֵּן סוֹרֵר וּמוֹרֶה אֵינֶנּוּ שֹׁמֵעַ בְּקוֹל אָבִיו וּבְקוֹל אִמּוֹ וְיִסְּרוּ אֹתוֹ וְלֹא יִשְׁמַע אֲלֵיהֶֽם׃
If a man have a stubborn and rebellious son, which will not obey the voice of his father, or the voice of his mother, and that, when they have chastened him, will not hearken unto them:
אִישׁ אִמּוֹ וְאָבִיו תִּירָאוּ וְאֶת-שַׁבְּתֹתַי תִּשְׁמֹרוּ אֲנִי יְהוָה אֱלֹֽהֵיכֶֽם׃
Ye shall fear every man his mother, and his father, and keep my sabbaths: I am the LORD your God.
καὶ μὴ συσχηματίζεσθε τῷ αἰῶνι τούτῳ ἀλλὰ μεταμορφοῦσθε τῇ ἀνακαινώσει τοῦ νοός ὑμῶν εἰς τὸ δοκιμάζειν ὑμᾶς τί τὸ θέλημα τοῦ θεοῦ τὸ ἀγαθὸν καὶ εὐάρεστον καὶ τέλειον
And be not conformed to this world: but be ye transformed by the renewing of your mind, that ye may prove what is that good, and acceptable, and perfect, will of God.
εἰ δέ τις χήρα τέκνα ἢ ἔκγονα ἔχει μανθανέτωσαν πρῶτον τὸν ἴδιον οἶκον εὐσεβεῖν καὶ ἀμοιβὰς ἀποδιδόναι τοῖς προγόνοις· τοῦτο γάρ ἐστιν καλὸν καὶ ἀπόδεκτον ἐνώπιον τοῦ θεοῦ
But if any widow have children or nephews, let them learn first to shew piety at home, and to requite their parents: for that is good and acceptable before God.
Οἱ δοῦλοι ὑπακούετε τοῖς κυρίοις κατὰ σάρκα μετὰ φόβου καὶ τρόμου ἐν ἁπλότητι τῆς καρδίας ὑμῶν ὡς τῷ Χριστῷ
Servants, be obedient to them that are your masters according to the flesh, with fear and trembling, in singleness of your heart, as unto Christ;
καὶ κατέβη μετ' αὐτῶν καὶ ἦλθεν εἰς Ναζαρέτ καὶ ἦν ὑποτασσόμενος αὐτοῖς καὶ ἡ μήτηρ αὐτοῦ διετήρει πάντα τὰ ῥήματα ταῦτα ἐν τῇ καρδίᾳ αὐτῆς
And he went down with them, and came to Nazareth, and was subject unto them: but his mother kept all these sayings in her heart.
ὥστε ὁ μὲν νόμος ἅγιος καὶ ἡ ἐντολὴ ἁγία καὶ δικαία καὶ ἀγαθή
Wherefore the law is holy, and the commandment holy, and just, and good.
יָשֹׁר׀ עַל-אֲנָשִׁים וַיֹּאמֶר חָטָאתִי וְיָשָׁר הֶעֱוֵיתִי וְלֹא-שָׁוָה לִֽי׃
He looketh upon men, and if any say, I have sinned, and perverted that which was right, and it profited me not;
עַיִן׀ תִּֽלְעַג לְאָב וְתָבֻז לִֽיקְּהַת-אֵם יִקְּרוּהָ עֹרְבֵי-נַחַל וְֽיֹאכְלוּהָ בְנֵי-נָֽשֶׁר׃
The eye that mocketh at his father, and despiseth to obey his mother, the ravens of the valley shall pick it out, and the young eagles shall eat it.
Ὑποτάγητε οὖν πάσῃ ἀνθρωπίνῃ κτίσει διὰ τὸν κύριον εἴτε βασιλεῖ ὡς ὑπερέχοντι
Submit yourselves to every ordinance of man for the Lord's sake: whether it be to the king, as supreme;
מִי חָכָם וְיָבֵֽן אֵלֶּה נָבוֹן וְיֵֽדָעֵם כִּֽי-יְשָׁרִים דַּרְכֵי יְהוָה וְצַדִּקִים יֵלְכוּ בָם וּפֹשְׁעִים יִכָּשְׁלוּ בָֽם׃
Who is wise, and he shall understand these things? prudent, and he shall know them? for the ways of the LORD are right, and the just shall walk in them: but the transgressors shall fall therein.
וַיִּשְׁמַע יַֽעֲקֹב אֶל-אָבִיו וְאֶל-אִמּוֹ וַיֵּלֶךְ פַּדֶּנָֽה אֲרָֽם׃
And that Jacob obeyed his father and his mother, and was gone to Padan-aram;
דּוֹר אָבִיו יְקַלֵּל וְאֶת-אִמּוֹ לֹא יְבָרֵֽךְ׃
There is a generation that curseth their father, and doth not bless their mother.
ἵνα αὐτὴν προσδέξησθε ἐν κυρίῳ ἀξίως τῶν ἁγίων καὶ παραστῆτε αὐτῇ ἐν ᾧ ἂν ὑμῶν χρῄζῃ πράγματι· καὶ γὰρ αὐτὴ προστάτις πολλῶν ἐγενήθη καὶ αὐτοῦ ἐμοῦ
That that ye receive her in the Lord, as becometh saints, and ye assist her in whatsoever business she hath need of you: for she hath been a succourer of many, and also. of myself
אֵין אֶסְתֵּר מַגֶּדֶת מֽוֹלַדְתָּהּ וְאֶת-עַמָּהּ כַּֽאֲשֶׁר צִוָּה עָלֶיהָ מָרְדֳּכָי וְאֶת-מַֽאֲמַר מָרְדֳּכַי אֶסְתֵּר עֹשָׂה כַּֽאֲשֶׁר הָֽיְתָה בְאָמְנָה אִתּֽוֹ׃
Esther had not yet shewed her kindred nor her people; as Mordecai had charged her: for Esther did the commandment of Mordecai, like as when she was brought up with him.
