Ἀγαπητέ πιστὸν ποιεῖς ὃ ἐὰν ἐργάσῃ εἰς τοὺς ἀδελφοὺς καὶ εἰς τοὺς ξένους
Beloved, thou doest faithfully whatsoever thou doest to the brethren, and to strangers;
οὐ γὰρ ἄδικος ὁ θεὸς ἐπιλαθέσθαι τοῦ ἔργου ὑμῶν καὶ τοῦ κόπου τῆς ἀγάπης ἡς ἐνεδείξασθε εἰς τὸ ὄνομα αὐτοῦ διακονήσαντες τοῖς ἁγίοις καὶ διακονοῦντες
For God is not unrighteous to forget your work and labour of love, which ye have shewed toward his name, in that ye have ministered to the saints, and do minister.
וַיְהִי הַיּוֹם וַיַּֽעֲבֹר אֱלִישָׁע אֶל-שׁוּנֵם וְשָׁם אִשָּׁה גְדוֹלָה וַתַּֽחֲזֶק-בּוֹ לֶֽאֱכָל-לָחֶם וַֽיְהִי מִדֵּי עָבְרוֹ יָסֻר שָׁמָּה לֶֽאֱכָל-לָֽחֶם׃
And it fell on a day, that Elisha passed to Shunem, where was a great woman; and she constrained him to eat bread. And so it was, that as oft as he passed by, he turned in thither to eat bread.
וַיֹּאמֶר לַמּוֹעֵד הַזֶּה כָּעֵת חַיָּה (אתי) אַתְּ חֹבֶקֶת בֵּן וַתֹּאמֶר אַל-אֲדֹנִי אִישׁ הָֽאֱלֹהִים אַל-תְּכַזֵּב בְּשִׁפְחָתֶֽךָ׃
And he said, About this season, according to the time of life, thou shalt embrace a son. And she said, Nay, my lord, thou man of God, do not lie unto thine handmaid.
ἀλλ' ὅταν ποιῇς δοχὴν κάλει πτωχούς ἀναπήρους χωλούς τυφλούς·
But when thou makest a feast, call the poor, the maimed, the lame, the blind:
βλέπετε ἑαυτούς ἵνα μὴ ἀπολέσωμεν ἃ εἰργασάμεθα ἀλλὰ μισθὸν πλήρη ἀπολάβωμεν
Look to yourselves, that we lose not those things which we have wrought, but that we receive a full reward.
וַיִּקְרָא אַחְאָב אֶל-עֹֽבַדְיָהוּ אֲשֶׁר עַל-הַבָּיִת וְעֹֽבַדְיָהוּ הָיָה יָרֵא אֶת-יְהוָה מְאֹֽד׃
And Ahab called Obadiah, which was the governor of his house. (Now Obadiah feared the LORD greatly:
וְעַתָּה הָשֵׁב אֵֽשֶׁת-הָאִישׁ כִּֽי-נָבִיא הוּא וְיִתְפַּלֵּל בַּֽעַדְךָ וֶֽחְיֵה וְאִם-אֵֽינְךָ מֵשִׁיב דַּע כִּי-מוֹת תָּמוּת אַתָּה וְכָל-אֲשֶׁר-לָֽךְ׃
Now therefore restore the man his wife; for he is a prophet, and he shall pray for thee, and thou shalt live: and if thou restore her not, know thou that thou shalt surely die, thou, and all that are thine.
וַיָּבֹא אֱלִישָׁע הַבָּיְתָה וְהִנֵּה הַנַּעַר מֵת מֻשְׁכָּב עַל-מִטָּתֽוֹ׃
And when Elisha was come into the house, behold, the child was dead, and laid upon his bed.
εἰ γὰρ ἑκὼν τοῦτο πράσσω μισθὸν ἔχω· εἰ δὲ ἄκων οἰκονομίαν πεπίστευμαι·
For if I do this thing willingly, I have a reward: but if against my will, a dispensation of the gospel is committed unto me.
τότε ἐρεῖ ὁ βασιλεὺς τοῖς ἐκ δεξιῶν αὐτοῦ Δεῦτε οἱ εὐλογημένοι τοῦ πατρός μου κληρονομήσατε τὴν ἡτοιμασμένην ὑμῖν βασιλείαν ἀπὸ καταβολῆς κόσμου
Then shall the King say unto them on his right hand, Come, ye blessed of my Father, inherit the kingdom prepared for you from the foundation of the world:
Συνίστημι δὲ ὑμῖν Φοίβην τὴν ἀδελφὴν ἡμῶν οὖσαν διάκονον τῆς ἐκκλησίας τῆς ἐν Κεγχρεαῖς
I commend unto you Phebe our sister, which is a servant of the church which is at Cenchrea:
εἴπερ δίκαιον παρὰ θεῷ ἀνταποδοῦναι τοῖς θλίβουσιν ὑμᾶς θλῖψιν
Seeing it is a righteous thing with God to recompense tribulation to them that trouble you;
μέλλει γὰρ ὁ υἱὸς τοῦ ἀνθρώπου ἔρχεσθαι ἐν τῇ δόξῃ τοῦ πατρὸς αὐτοῦ μετὰ τῶν ἀγγέλων αὐτοῦ καὶ τότε ἀποδώσει ἑκάστῳ κατὰ τὴν πρᾶξιν αὐτοῦ
For the Son of man shall come in the glory of his Father with his angels; and then he shall reward every man according to his works.
δῴη ἔλεος ὁ κύριος τῷ Ὀνησιφόρου οἴκῳ ὅτι πολλάκις με ἀνέψυξεν καὶ τὴν ἅλυσίν μου οὐκ ἐπῆσχύνθη
The Lord give mercy unto the house of Onesiphorus; for he oft refreshed me, and was not ashamed of my chain:
ὅπως μὴ φανῇς τοῖς ἀνθρώποις νηστεύων ἀλλὰ τῷ πατρί σου τῷ ἐν τῷ κρυπτῷ· καὶ ὁ πατήρ σου ὁ βλέπων ἐν τῷ κρυπτῷ ἀποδώσει σοι ἐν τῷ φανερῷ
That thou appear not unto men to fast, but unto thy Father which is in secret: and thy Father, which seeth in secret, shall reward thee openly.
σὺ δὲ ὅταν προσεύχῃ εἴσελθε εἰς τὸ ταμιεῖόν σου καὶ κλείσας τὴν θύραν σου πρόσευξαι τῷ πατρί σου τῷ ἐν τῷ κρυπτῷ· καὶ ὁ πατήρ σου ὁ βλέπων ἐν τῷ κρυπτῷ ἀποδώσει σοι ἐν τῷ φανερῷ
But thou, when thou prayest, enter into thy closet, and when thou hast shut thy door, pray to thy Father which is in secret; and thy Father which seeth in secret shall reward thee openly.
קוּם לֵךְ צָֽרְפַתָה אֲשֶׁר לְצִידוֹן וְיָֽשַׁבְתָּ שָׁם הִנֵּה צִוִּיתִי שָׁם אִשָּׁה אַלְמָנָה לְכַלְכְּלֶֽךָ׃
Arise, get thee to Zarephath, which belongeth to Zidon, and dwell there: behold, I have commanded a widow woman there to sustain thee.
ἀσπάζεται ὑμᾶς Γάϊος ὁ ξένος μου καὶ τῆς ἐκκλησίας ὅλης ἀσπάζεται ὑμᾶς Ἔραστος ὁ οἰκονόμος τῆς πόλεως καὶ Κούαρτος ὁ ἀδελφός
Gaius mine host, and of the whole church, saluteth you. Erastus the chamberlain of the city saluteth you, and Quartus a brother.
ὅπως ᾖ σου ἡ ἐλεημοσύνη ἐν τῷ κρυπτῷ· καὶ ὁ πατήρ σου ὁ βλέπων ἐν τῷ κρυπτῷ αὑτὸς ἀποδώσει σοι ἐν τῷ φανερῷ
That thine alms may be in secret: and thy Father which seeth in secret himself shall reward thee openly.
