Τότε ὁ Ἰησοῦς εἶπεν τοῖς μαθηταῖς αὐτοῦ Εἴ τις θέλει ὀπίσω μου ἐλθεῖν ἀπαρνησάσθω ἑαυτὸν καὶ ἀράτω τὸν σταυρὸν αὐτοῦ καὶ ἀκολουθείτω μοι
Then said Jesus unto his disciples, If any man will come after me, let him deny himself, and take up his cross, and follow me.
וַיַּֽעֲזֹב אֶת-הַבָּקָר וַיָּרָץ אַֽחֲרֵי אֵֽלִיָּהוּ וַיֹּאמֶר אֶשְּׁקָה-נָּא לְאָבִי וּלְאִמִּי וְאֵֽלְכָה אַֽחֲרֶיךָ וַיֹּאמֶר לוֹ לֵךְ שׁוּב כִּי מֶֽה-עָשִׂיתִי לָֽךְ׃
And he left the oxen, and ran after Elijah, and said, Let me, I pray thee, kiss my father and my mother, and then I will follow thee. And he said unto him, Go back again: for what have I done to thee?
Ἕτερος δὲ τῶν μαθητῶν αὐτοῦ εἶπεν αὐτῷ Κύριε ἐπίτρεψόν μοι πρῶτον ἀπελθεῖν καὶ θάψαι τὸν πατέρα μου
And another of his disciples said unto him, Lord, suffer me first to go and bury my father.
ζητεῖτε δὲ πρῶτον τὴν βασιλείαν τοῦ θεοῦ καὶ τὴν δικαιοσύνην αὐτοῦ καὶ ταῦτα πάντα προστεθήσεται ὑμῖν
But seek ye first the kingdom of God, and his righteousness; and all these things shall be added unto you.
כֹּה אָמַר יְהוָה צְבָאוֹת לֵאמֹר הָעָם הַזֶּה אָֽמְרוּ לֹא עֶת-בֹּא עֶת-בֵּית יְהוָה לְהִבָּנֽוֹת׃
Thus speaketh the LORD of hosts, saying, This people say, The time is not come, the time that the LORD's house should be built.
καὶ λέγει αὐτοῖς Δεῦτε ὀπίσω μου καὶ ποιήσω ὑμᾶς ἁλιεῖς ἀνθρώπων
And he saith unto them, Follow me, and I will make you fishers of men.
Καὶ παράγων ὁ Ἰησοῦς ἐκεῖθεν εἶδεν ἄνθρωπον καθήμενον ἐπὶ τὸ τελώνιον Ματθαῖον λεγόμενον καὶ λέγει αὐτῷ Ἀκολούθει μοι καὶ ἀναστὰς ἠκολούθησεν αὐτῷ
And as passed Jesus forth from thence, he saw a man, named Matthew, sitting at the receipt of custom: and he saith unto him, Follow me. And he arose, and followed him.
