New Testament
1 Peter
Deponentes igitur omnem malitiam, et omnem dolum, et simulationes, et invidias, et omnes detractiones,
Wherefore laying away all malice and all guile and dissimulations and envies and all detractions,
Depone ergo omni malitia, et omni dolo, et simulationes, et invide, et omni detractiones,
sicut modo geniti infantes, rationabile, sine dolo lac concupiscite: ut in eo crescatis in salutem:
As newborn babes, desire the rational milk without guile, that thereby you may grow unto salvation:
Sicut solo gene infantes, rationabile, sine dolo lacte concupisce: ut in eo cresce in salute:
si tamen gustastis quoniam dulcis est Dominus.
If so be you have tasted that the Lord is sweet.
Si tamen gusta quia dulci es Domino.
Ad quem accedentes lapidem vivum, ab hominibus quidem reprobatum, a Deo autem electum, et honorificatum:
Unto whom coming, as to a living stone, rejected indeed by men but chosen and made honourable by God:
Ad quem accede lapide vivo, ab homines quidem reproba, ab Deo autem elige, et honorifica:
et ipsi tamquam lapides vivi superædificamini, domus spiritualis, sacerdotium sanctum, offerre spirituales hostias, acceptabiles Deo per Jesum Christum.
Be you also as living stones built up, a spiritual house, a holy priesthood, to offer up spiritual sacrifices, acceptable to God by Jesus Christ.
Et ipso sicut lapides vivo superaedifica, domo spirituali, sacerdotio sancto, offer spirituali hostias, acceptabile ad Deo per Iesu Christo.
Propter quod continet Scriptura: Ecce pono in Sion lapidem summum angularem, electum, pretiosum: et qui crediderit in eum, non confundetur.
Wherefore it is said in the scripture: Behold, I lay in Sion a chief corner stone, elect, precious. And he that shall believe in him shall not be confounded.
Propter quod Scriptura contine: ecce pone in Sione lapide summo angulari, elige, pretioso: et qui crede in illo, non confunde.
Vobis igitur honor credentibus: non credentibus autem lapis, quem reprobaverunt ædificantes: hic factus est in caput anguli,
To you therefore that believe, he is honour: but to them that believe not, the stone which the builders rejected, the same is made the head of the corner:
Ad vos ergo honore crede: non crede autem lapide, quem reproba aedifica: hoc facto es in capite de angulo,
et lapis offensionis, et petra scandali, his qui offendunt verbo, nec credunt in quo et positi sunt.
And a stone of stumbling and a rock of scandal, to them who stumble at the word, neither do believe, whereunto also they are set.
Et lapide de offensione, et petra de scandalo, ad hoc qui offende verbo, nec crede in quo et pone es.
Vos autem genus electum, regale sacerdotium, gens sancta, populus acquisitionis: ut virtutes annuntietis ejus qui de tenebris vos vocavit in admirabile lumen suum.
But you are a chosen generation, a kingly priesthood, a holy nation, a purchased people: that you may declare his virtues, who hath called you out of darkness into his marvelous light:
Vos autem genere elige, regali sacerdotio, gente sancto, populo de acquisitione: ut virtutes annuntia de illo qui de tenebras voca vos in admirabile lumine suo.
Qui aliquando non populus, nunc autem populus Dei: qui non consecuti misericordiam, nunc autem misericordiam consecuti.
Who in times past were not a people: but are now the people of God. Who had not obtained mercy: but now have obtained mercy.
Qui aliquando non populo, nunc autem populo de Deo: qui non consequor misericordia, nunc autem misericordia consequor.
Carissimi, obsecro vos tamquam advenas et peregrinos abstinere vos a carnalibus desideriis, quæ militant adversus animam,
Dearly beloved, I beseech you, as strangers and pilgrims, to refrain yourselves from carnal desires which war against the soul,
Carissimo, obsecra vos sicut advenas et peregrinos abstine vos ab carnali desiderios, que milita contra anima,
conversationem vestram inter gentes habentes bonam: ut in eo quod detrectant de vobis tamquam de malefactoribus, ex bonis operibus vos considerantes, glorificent Deum in die visitationis.
Having your conversation good among the Gentiles: that whereas they speak against you as evildoers, they may, by the good works which they shall behold in you, glorify God in the day of visitation.
Conversatione vestro inter gentes habe bono: ut in eo quod detrecta de vos sicut de malefactores, ex bono operes vos considera, glorifica Deo in die de visitatione.
Subjecti igitur estote omni humanæ creaturæ propter Deum: sive regi quasi præcellenti:
Be ye subject therefore to every human creature for God's sake: whether it be to the king as excelling,
Subicie ergo es omni humano de creatura propter Deo: sive ad rege quasi praecella:
sive ducibus tamquam ab eo missis ad vindictam malefactorum, laudem vero bonorum:
Or to governors as sent by him for the punishment of evildoers and for the praise of the good.
Sive ad duces sicut ab eo mitte ad vindicta malefacie, laude vero bono:
quia sic est voluntas Dei, ut benefacientes obmutescere faciatis imprudentium hominum ignorantiam:
For so is the will of God, that by doing well you may put to silence the ignorance of foolish men:
Quia sic es voluntate de Deo, ut beneface obmutesce fac imprudenti de homines ignorantia:
quasi liberi, et non quasi velamen habentes malitiæ libertatem, sed sicut servi Dei.
As free and not as making liberty a cloak for malice, but as the servants of God.
Quasi libro, et non quasi velamine habe de malitia libertate, sed sicut servos de Deo.
Omnes honorate: fraternitatem diligite: Deum timete: regem honorificate.
Honour all men. Love the brotherhood. Fear God. Honour the king.
Omni honora: fraternitate dilige: deo time: rege honorifica.
Servi, subditi estote in omni timore dominis, non tantum bonis et modestis, sed etiam dyscolis.
Servants, be subject to your masters with all fear, not only to the good and gentle but also to the froward.
Servis, subdito es in omni timore dominos, non tanto bono et modeste, sed etiam dyscolos.
Hæc est enim gratia, si propter Dei conscientiam sustinet quis tristitias, patiens injuste.
For this is thankworthy: if, for conscience towards God, a man endure sorrows, suffering wrongfully.
Hoc es nam gratia, si propter Deo conscientia sustine qui tristitias, pate iniuste.
Quæ enim est gloria, si peccantes, et colaphizati suffertis? sed si bene facientes patienter sustinetis, hæc est gratia apud Deum.
For what glory is it, if, committing sin and being buffeted for it, you endure? But if doing well you suffer patiently: this is thankworthy before God.
Que nam es gloria, si pecca, et colaphiza suffere? Sed si bene fac patienter sustine, hoc es gratia apud Deo.
In hoc enim vocati estis: quia et Christus passus est pro nobis, vobis relinquens exemplum ut sequamini vestigia ejus:
For unto this are you called: because Christ also suffered for us, leaving you an example that you should follow his steps.
In hoc nam voca es: quia et Christo passo es pro nos, ad vos relinque exemplo ut seque vestigios de illo:
qui peccatum non fecit, nec inventus est dolus in ore ejus:
Who did no sin, neither was guile found in his mouth.
Qui fac non peccato, nec inveni es dolo in ore de illo:
qui cum malediceretur, non maledicebat: cum pateretur, non comminabatur: tradebat autem judicanti se injuste:
Who, when he was reviled, did not revile: when he suffered, he threatened not, but delivered himself to him that judged him unjustly.
Qui cum maledice, non maledice: cum pate, non comminor: trade autem iudica se iniuste:
qui peccata nostra ipse pertulit in corpore suo super lignum; ut peccatis mortui, justitiæ vivamus: cujus livore sanati estis.
Who his own self bore our sins in his body upon the tree: that we, being dead to sins, should live to justice: by whose stripes you were healed.
Qui peccatos nostro ipso perfere in corpore suo super ligno; ut peccatos mortuo, de iustitia vive: de que livore sana es.
Eratis enim sicut oves errantes, sed conversi estis nunc ad pastorem, et episcopum animarum vestrarum.
For you were as sheep going astray: but you are now converted to the shepherd and bishop of your souls.
Es nam sicut oves erra, sed converte es nunc ad pastore, et episcopo de animas vestro.
