לֹֽא-תִקֹּם וְלֹֽא-תִטֹּר אֶת-בְּנֵי עַמֶּךָ וְאָֽהַבְתָּ לְרֵֽעֲךָ כָּמוֹךָ אֲנִי יְהוָֽה׃
Thou shalt not avenge, nor bear any grudge against the children of thy people, but thou shalt love thy neighbour as thyself: I am the LORD.
ὁ γὰρ πᾶς νόμος ἐν ἑνὶ λόγῳ πληροῦται ἐν τῷ· Ἀγαπήσεις τὸν πλησίον σου ὡς εαυτόν
For all the law is fulfilled in one word, even in this; Thou shalt love thy neighbour as thyself.
δευτέρα δὲ ὁμοία αὐτῇ Ἀγαπήσεις τὸν πλησίον σου ὡς σεαυτόν
And the second is like unto it, Thou shalt love thy neighbour as thyself.
οὕτως λαλεῖτε καὶ οὕτως ποιεῖτε ὡς διὰ νόμου ἐλευθερίας μέλλοντες κρίνεσθαι
So speak ye, and so do, as they that shall be judged by the law of liberty.
Μηδενὶ μηδὲν ὀφείλετε εἰ μὴ τὸ ἀγαπᾶν ἀλλήλους· ὁ γὰρ ἀγαπῶν τὸν ἕτερον νόμον πεπλήρωκεν
Owe no man any thing, but to love one another: for he that loveth another hath fulfilled the law.
καὶ δευτέρα ὁμοία αὕτη Ἀγαπήσεις τὸν πλησίον σου ὡς σεαυτόν μείζων τούτων ἄλλη ἐντολὴ οὐκ ἔστιν
And the second is like, namely this, Thou shalt love thy neighbour as thyself. There is none other commandment greater than these.
Ἀλλήλων τὰ βάρη βαστάζετε καὶ οὕτως ἀναπληρώσατε τὸν νόμον τοῦ Χριστοῦ
Bear ye one another's burdens, and so fulfil the law of Christ.
כְּאֶזְרָח מִכֶּם יִֽהְיֶה לָכֶם הַגֵּר׀ הַגָּר אִתְּכֶם וְאָֽהַבְתָּ לוֹ כָּמוֹךָ כִּֽי-גֵרִים הֱיִיתֶם בְּאֶרֶץ מִצְרָיִם אֲנִי יְהוָה אֱלֹֽהֵיכֶֽם׃
But the stranger that dwelleth with you shall be unto you as one born among you, and thou shalt love him as thyself; for ye were strangers in the land of Egypt: I am the LORD your God.
ὁ δὲ παρακύψας εἰς νόμον τέλειον τὸν τῆς ἐλευθερίας καὶ παραμείνας οὗτος οὐκ ἀκροατὴς ἐπιλησμονῆς γενόμενος ἀλλὰ ποιητὴς ἔργου οὗτος μακάριος ἐν τῇ ποιήσει αὐτοῦ ἔσται
But whoso looketh into the perfect law of liberty, and continueth therein, he being not a forgetful hearer, but a doer of the work, this man shall be blessed in his deed.
Ὑμεῖς δὲ γένος ἐκλεκτόν βασίλειον ἱεράτευμα ἔθνος ἅγιον λαὸς εἰς περιποίησιν ὅπως τὰς ἀρετὰς ἐξαγγείλητε τοῦ ἐκ σκότους ὑμᾶς καλέσαντος εἰς τὸ θαυμαστὸν αὐτοῦ φῶς·
But ye are a chosen generation, a royal priesthood, an holy nation, a peculiar people; that ye should shew forth the praises of who hath him called you out of darkness into his marvellous light:
ὁ δὲ ἀποκριθεὶς εἶπεν Ἀγαπήσεις κύριον τὸν θεόν σου ἐξ ὅλης τῆς καρδίας σου καὶ ἐξ ὅλης τῆς ψυχῆς σου καὶ ἐξ ὅλης τῆς ἰσχύος σου καὶ ἐξ ὅλης τῆς διανοίας σου καὶ τὸν πλησίον σου ὡς σεαυτόν
And he answering said, Thou shalt love the Lord thy God with all thy heart, and with all thy soul, and with all thy strength, and with all thy mind; and thy neighbour as thyself.
וַיֹּֽאמְרוּ אִישׁ אֶל-רֵעֵהוּ לֹא-כֵן׀ אֲנַחְנוּ עֹשִׂים הַיּוֹם הַזֶּה יוֹם-בְּשֹׂרָה הוּא וַֽאֲנַחְנוּ מַחְשִׁים וְחִכִּינוּ עַד-אוֹר הַבֹּקֶר וּמְצָאָנוּ עָווֹן וְעַתָּה לְכוּ וְנָבֹאָה וְנַגִּידָה בֵּית הַמֶּֽלֶךְ׃
Then they said one to another, We do not well: this day is a day of good tidings, and we hold our peace: if we tarry till the morning light, some mischief will come upon us: now therefore come, that we may go and tell the king's household.
ἔφη αὐτῷ ὁ κύριος αὐτοῦ Εὖ δοῦλε ἀγαθὲ καὶ πιστέ ἐπὶ ὀλίγα ἦς πιστός ἐπὶ πολλῶν σε καταστήσω· εἴσελθε εἰς τὴν χαρὰν τοῦ κυρίου σου
His lord said unto him, Well done, good and faithful servant; thou hast been faithful over a few things, I will make thee ruler over many things: enter thou into the joy of thy lord.
וַיֹּאמֶר יְהוָה אֶל-דָּוִד אָבִי יַעַן אֲשֶׁר הָיָה עִם-לְבָבְךָ לִבְנוֹת בַּיִת לִשְׁמִי הֱֽטִיבֹתָ כִּי הָיָה עִם-לְבָבֶֽךָ׃
And the LORD said unto David my father, Whereas it was in thine heart to build an house unto my name, thou didst well that it was in thine heart.
וַיֹּאמֶר אֱלֹהִים אֶל-יוֹנָה הַהֵיטֵב חָרָֽה-לְךָ עַל-הַקִּֽיקָיוֹן וַיֹּאמֶר הֵיטֵב חָֽרָה-לִי עַד-מָֽוֶת׃
And God said to Jonah, Doest thou well to be angry for the gourd? And he said, I do well to be angry, even unto death.
Περὶ δὲ τῆς φιλαδελφίας οὐ χρείαν ἔχετε γράφειν ὑμῖν αὐτοὶ γὰρ ὑμεῖς θεοδίδακτοί ἐστε εἰς τὸ ἀγαπᾶν ἀλλήλους
But as touching brotherly love ye need not that I write unto you: for ye yourselves are taught of God to love one another.
πλὴν καλῶς ἐποιήσατε συγκοινωνήσαντές μου τῇ θλίψει
Notwithstanding ye have well done, that ye did communicate with my affliction.
ἔφη δέ αὐτῷ ὁ κύριος αὐτοῦ Εὖ δοῦλε ἀγαθὲ καὶ πιστέ ἐπὶ ὀλίγα ἦς πιστός ἐπὶ πολλῶν σε καταστήσω· εἴσελθε εἰς τὴν χαρὰν τοῦ κυρίου σου
His lord said unto him, Well done, thou good and faithful servant: thou hast been faithful over a few things, I will make thee ruler over many things: enter thou into the joy of thy lord.
σὺ πιστεύεις ὅτι ὁ θεός εἷς ἐστιν καλῶς ποιεῖς· καὶ τὰ δαιμόνια πιστεύουσιν καὶ φρίσσουσιν
Thou believest that there is one God; thou doest well: the devils also believe, and tremble.
