Lucas 6
Palabra de Dios para Todos

Jesús es Señor del día de descanso

(Mt 12:1-8; Mr 2:23-28)

6 Un día de descanso Jesús iba por unos sembrados, y sus seguidores arrancaban espigas, las desgranaban en las manos y se las comían. 2 Entonces algunos fariseos dijeron:

—¿Por qué hacen ustedes lo que está prohibido en el día de descanso?

3 Jesús les respondió:

—¿No han leído ustedes lo que hizo David cuando él y sus compañeros tuvieron hambre? 4 Entró a la casa de Dios y tomó los panes que se consagran a Dios, comió de ellos y también les dio a sus compañeros. Y ustedes bien saben que no se permite a nadie comer de esos panes, sino sólo a los sacerdotes.

5 Entonces les dijo:

—El Hijo del hombre es Señor del día de descanso.

Jesús sana en el día de descanso

(Mt 12:9-14; Mr 3:1-6)

6 Otro día de descanso, Jesús fue a la sinagoga y enseñó. Había allí un hombre que tenía paralizada la mano derecha. 7 Los maestros de la ley y los fariseos estaban esperando que Jesús sanara a alguien en el día de descanso porque buscaban alguna razón para acusarlo. 8 Jesús sabía lo que estaban pensando. Le dijo al hombre que tenía la mano paralizada:

—Levántate y ponte frente a todos.

Entonces el hombre se levantó y se paró allí, 9 y Jesús les dijo:

—Déjenme hacerles una pregunta: ¿qué se debe hacer en el día de descanso, el bien o el mal, salvar una vida o destruirla?

10 Entonces Jesús los miró a todos y le dijo al hombre:

—Extiende la mano.

El hombre extendió la mano y quedó sana. 11 Pero los fariseos y los maestros de la ley se pusieron furiosos, y discutían entre sí qué podrían hacer contra Jesús.

Jesús elige a los doce apóstoles

(Mt 10:1-4; Mr 3:13-19)

12 En esos días, Jesús se fue a un cerro a orar. Pasó toda la noche en oración con Dios. 13 Al amanecer llamó a sus seguidores, eligió a doce de ellos y los llamó apóstoles:

14 Simón (a quien también llamó Pedro),

Andrés, hermano de Simón,

Santiago,

Juan,

Felipe,

Bartolomé,

15 Mateo,

Tomás,

Santiago hijo de Alfeo,

Simón, llamado el zelote,

16 Judas hijo de Santiago,

Judas Iscariote (quien luego se convertiría en un traidor).

Jesús enseña y sana a la gente

(Mt 4:23-25; 5:1-12)

17 Jesús bajó con sus apóstoles y se detuvo en un llano. También estaban allí muchos de sus seguidores y una gran multitud de Jerusalén, de toda la región de Judea y de Tiro y de Sidón, ciudades de la costa. 18 Habían venido a escucharlo y a que los sanara de sus enfermedades. También fueron sanados los que eran atormentados por espíritus malignos. 19 Toda la gente quería tocarlo porque de él salía poder para sanar a todos.

20 Jesús miró a sus seguidores y les dijo:

«Afortunados ustedes los pobres,
    porque el reino de Dios les pertenece.
21 Afortunados ustedes los que ahora tienen hambre,
    porque serán completamente satisfechos.
Afortunados ustedes que ahora lloran,
    porque luego no podrán contener su alegría.

22 »Cuando la gente los odie por ser seguidores del Hijo del hombre, cuando los echen, los insulten y crean que sea malo hasta mencionar el nombre de ustedes, sepan que ustedes son afortunados ante los ojos de Dios. 23 Cuando les pase esto, salten de alegría, porque van a recibir una gran recompensa en los cielos. Así también fue como los antepasados de esa gente maltrataron a los profetas.

24 »Pero qué mal les irá a ustedes los ricos,
    porque ya se han dado la gran vida.
25 Qué mal les irá a ustedes los que están satisfechos ahora,
    porque luego tendrán hambre.
Qué mal les irá a ustedes los que ahora ríen,
    porque luego estarán tristes y llorarán.
26 Pero que mal les irá cuando todos hablen bien de ustedes,
    porque también los antepasados de esa gente hablaron bien de los falsos profetas.

Amen a sus enemigos

(Mt 5:38-48; 7:12a)

27 »Pero yo les digo a ustedes que me escuchan, amen a sus enemigos. Hagan el bien a los que los odian. 28 Bendigan a los que los maldicen y oren por los que los maltratan. 29 Si alguien te pega en una mejilla, ofrécele también la otra. Si alguien te quita la capa, deja que también tome tu camisa. 30 A todo el que te pida algo, dáselo. Si alguien toma de ti lo que no es suyo, no le pidas que te lo devuelva. 31 Traten a los demás como les gustaría que los trataran a ustedes.

32 »Si ustedes solamente aman a los que los aman, ¿qué gracia tiene? Hasta los pecadores aman a aquellos que los aman. 33 Si hacen el bien sólo a aquellos que les hacen el bien, ¿qué gracia tiene? Hasta los pecadores son así. 34 Si sólo prestan para recibir algo a cambio, ¿qué gracia tiene? Hasta los pecadores se prestan unos a otros para recibir unos de otros. 35 Más bien, amen a sus enemigos y háganles el bien. Presten sin esperar nada a cambio. Así tendrán una gran recompensa y serán hijos del Dios Altísimo, porque Dios es bueno aun con los desagradecidos y perversos. 36 Sean compasivos como su Padre es compasivo.

No juzguen a los demás

(Mt 7:1-5)

37 »No juzguen a los demás y Dios no los juzgará a ustedes. No condenen a los demás y no serán condenados. Perdonen y serán perdonados. 38 Den a los demás y ustedes también recibirán. Se les dará una cantidad mayor a la que puedan contener en su regazo, aunque se la haya agitado y apretado al máximo, siempre se rebosará. Porque con la misma medida que ustedes midan a los demás, Dios los volverá a medir a ustedes».

39 Jesús también les contó esta comparación[a]: «¿Puede un ciego guiar a otro ciego? ¿No caerán los dos en un hoyo? 40 Ningún estudiante es mejor que su maestro. Sin embargo, cuando termine su aprendizaje, será como su maestro.

41 »¿Por qué te fijas en la pajita que tiene tu hermano en el ojo, pero no te das cuenta de la viga que tienes tú en el tuyo? 42 ¿Cómo te atreves a decirle a tu hermano: “Déjame sacarte la pajita del ojo”, si ni siquiera puedes ver la viga que tienes en el tuyo? ¡No seas hipócrita! Primero saca la viga de tu ojo y verás mejor para poder sacar la pajita de tu hermano.

Lo que haces muestra lo que eres

(Mt 7:17-20; 12:34b-35)

43 »Un árbol bueno no da fruto malo. Tampoco un árbol malo puede dar fruto bueno. 44 El árbol se conoce por su fruto. No se recogen higos de espinos. Tampoco se cosechan uvas de las zarzas. 45 El que es bueno lo es en su interior y habla de lo que tiene allí, de igual manera el malo lo es en su interior y habla de lo que tiene allí; porque las palabras revelan lo que hay en el interior.

El prudente y el insensato

(Mt 7:24-27)

46 »¿Por qué me llaman: “Señor, Señor”, y no hacen lo que les digo? 47 Les voy a dar un ejemplo del que viene a mí, escucha y obedece mis enseñanzas: es como el que 48 construyó una casa. Cavó bien hondo y puso el cimiento sobre la roca. Luego vinieron las inundaciones y el río azotó contra la casa, pero no pudo destruirla porque estaba construida sobre la roca. 49 En cambio, el que escucha mis enseñanzas y no las obedece es como el que construyó su casa sin ponerle cimientos. Vinieron las inundaciones y el río golpeó la casa, e inmediatamente la casa se derrumbó y quedó completamente destruida».

Luke 6
EasyEnglish Bible

Jesus teaches about the Jewish day of rest

6 On a Jewish day of rest, Jesus and his disciples were walking through some fields where wheat was growing. His disciples began to pick some of the wheat. They were rubbing it between their hands and eating the seeds.

2 Some of the Pharisees were walking with them. They said, ‘You should not be doing that on our day of rest. It is against God's Law.’

3 Jesus replied, ‘You have certainly read about what David did one day. He and the men who were with him were hungry. 4 He went into the temple. He took the special bread that was there. It is against God's Law for anyone except the priests to eat that bread. But David ate some of it. He gave some of the bread to his men to eat as well.’

5 Then Jesus said to them, ‘The Son of Man has authority over the Law about the day of rest.’[a]

Jesus makes a man well on the day of rest

6 On another Jewish day of rest, Jesus went into the Jewish meeting place and he taught the people. A man was there. His right hand had become small and weak and he could not use it. 7 Some teachers of God's Law and some Pharisees were watching Jesus carefully. They wanted to find a reason to say that he was doing something wrong. So they watched Jesus to see if he would make the man well on the day of rest. 8 But Jesus knew what they were thinking. So he said to the man, ‘Get up and stand in front of everyone.’ The man got up and he stood there. 9 Then Jesus said to the people, ‘Let me ask you something. Is it right for us to do good things on our day of rest? Or should we do bad things? Should we save a person's life? Or should we destroy their life?’ 10 Jesus looked round at everyone. Then he said to the man, ‘Lift up your hand.’ When the man lifted his hand, it became well. He could use it again.

11 Then the Pharisees and the teachers of God's Law were very angry. They began to talk to each other about what they could do to Jesus.

Jesus chooses 12 men

12 One day Jesus went up a mountain to pray. He remained there all night and he was praying to God. 13 In the morning, he asked all his disciples to come to him. Then he chose 12 of them and he called them his apostles.[b] These are their names:

14 Simon (Jesus gave him the name ‘Peter’),

Andrew (he was Simon's brother),

James,

John,

Philip,

Bartholomew,

15 Matthew,

Thomas,

James, the son of Alphaeus,

Simon the Zealot,

16 Judas, son of James,

Judas Iscariot, who later gave Jesus to his enemies.

Jesus teaches people

17 After Jesus had chosen these 12 men, they all came down the mountain. He stopped and he stood on a flat place. A large crowd of his disciples stood around him. There were also many people from Jerusalem, and from other towns of Judea, and from places on the coast near Tyre and Sidon. 18 These people had all come to hear Jesus teach. Those people who were ill wanted him to make them well. He also made well those people who had bad spirits. 19 All the people were trying to touch him, because he was using great power to make each person well.

20 Jesus looked at his disciples. He spoke this message to them:

‘Happy are you people that are poor. The kingdom of God belongs to you.[c]
21 Happy are you people that are hungry now. God will feed you until you are full.[d]
Happy are you people that are crying now. Later, you will laugh.[e]

22 People may hate you, because you believe in me, the Son of Man. They may say bad things against you and make you go away from them. They may say that you are very bad. When that happens, be happy. 23 God will prepare many good things for you in heaven. So be very happy when people do these bad things to you! Jump up and down because you are so happy. Their ancestors did the same bad things to God's prophets long ago.

24 Listen, you that are rich.
You have a comfortable life now, but it will be very bad for you.
25 Listen, you that are full with food now.
It will be very bad for you and you will be hungry.
Listen, you that are laughing now.
It will be very bad for you. You will be sad and you will cry.

26 If people always say good things about you now, it will be very bad for you. Their ancestors also said good things about the false prophets long ago.’

Love people that want to hurt you

27 Jesus then said, ‘I say this to you who are listening carefully to me: Love the people who want to hurt you. Do good things to people that hate you. 28 Say good things to people that say bad things against you. Pray for people who give you pain.

29 Someone may slap you on one side of your face. Then you should let him slap the other side of your face too. Someone may take away your coat. If he does, do not stop him from taking your shirt too. 30 When anyone asks you for something, give it to him. Someone may take something that belongs to you. If he does, let him keep it. Do not ask to have it back again. 31 Do the good things for other people that you would want them to do for you.

32 Do you only love people who love you? God will not praise you just for doing that! Even bad people love those people who love them. 33 Do you only do good things to people that do good things to you? God will not praise you just for doing that! Even bad people do the same thing. 34 Do you lend things only to people that will give your things back to you? God will not praise you for doing that! Even bad people lend things to other people when they believe that they will get them back again. 35 No! I am telling you to love people that want to hurt you. Do good things to them. Lend things to people even though you may not receive your things back again. Then God will prepare good things for you. He is kind even to people who do not say “thank you”. He is kind even to very bad people. If you live like this, you will show that you really are children of the powerful God who is over all. 36 You should be kind to other people, as God your Father is kind.

37 Do not say to anyone, “You are a bad person.” Then God will not say to you, “You are a bad person.” Do not say to anyone, “God should punish you because you are bad.” Then God will not say that you are guilty. Forgive other people and God will forgive you. 38 Give to other people and God will give to you. He will give to you even more than you gave. He will fill your pocket until no more will go in.[f] It will be so full that it will come out over the top. Think about how you give to other people. God will give in the same way to you.’

39 Jesus also used a story to teach the people. He said, ‘A blind person cannot lead another blind person. If he does, then both of them will fall into a deep hole.

40 A student is not more important than his teacher is. But each student who has learned everything will be like his teacher.

41 Perhaps you want to tell a friend about his little mistake. If you want to tell him, first remember your own bigger mistakes. 42 If you do not do that, you will be like a person who has a big piece of wood in his eye. But then he says to his friend, “My friend, you have a little piece of dirt in your eye. Let me take it out for you.” Do not be like that person. You think you are better than your friend. But you are not. First, you must take the big piece of wood out of your eye. After that, your eyes will be clear and you will see well. Then you can take the small piece of dirt out of your friend's eye.’

A story about a tree and its fruit

43 Jesus said, ‘Good trees only make good fruit. Bad trees only make bad fruit. 44 In this way you can know if a tree is good or bad. You can know this by the fruit that the tree makes. Figs and grapes do not grow on thorn bushes.

45 People are also like that. A good man keeps good things in his mind. In his life, he brings those good things out from there. But a bad man keeps bad things in his mind. He brings those bad thoughts out from there. When a person speaks, his words show what is really in his mind.’

A story about men that are building a house

46 Jesus said, ‘If you refuse to obey me, do not call me, “Master, Master.” 47 Some people come to me. They listen to my message and they obey it. Let me tell you what those people are like. They are like a man who built a house. 48 This man dug down in the ground to the rock. He put the first line of stones on the rock. After that, he built the house on top of the rock. Then a storm came and it brought a lot of water. The water hit the house but it could not move it. The water could not move the house because the man had built it very well.

49 Some other people hear my message but they do not obey it. Those people are like another man who built a house. This man did not dig down deep to the rock. Instead, he put the first line of stones on the top of the ground. Then he built his house on them. A storm came and it brought a lot of water. It hit that house and it fell down immediately. The water completely destroyed it.’

Footnotes

  2. 6:13 Many people were following Jesus. Only 12 of these were called apostles. Jesus taught them how to tell people the good news about himself.
  3. 6:20 Jesus was not only speaking about people that have no money. Matthew 5:3 shows us that. Some people know that they need God. He was also speaking about those people.
  4. 6:21 Jesus was not only speaking about people that have nothing to eat. Matthew 5:6 shows us that. He was also speaking about people that really want to know more about God. They want all that God has to give them.
  5. 6:21 Matthew 5:4 shows that Jesus was not only speaking about sad people. Some people are sorry for the bad things that they have done. He was also speaking about those people.
  6. 6:38 In those days, people would leave part of their coat to hang over their belt. They used this as a large pocket. It was big enough to hold some food. Jesus is saying that God gives a lot to us, if we also are kind to other people.

Luke 6
New International Version

Jesus Is Lord of the Sabbath(A)

6 One Sabbath Jesus was going through the grainfields, and his disciples began to pick some heads of grain, rub them in their hands and eat the kernels.(B) 2 Some of the Pharisees asked, “Why are you doing what is unlawful on the Sabbath?”(C)

3 Jesus answered them, “Have you never read what David did when he and his companions were hungry?(D) 4 He entered the house of God, and taking the consecrated bread, he ate what is lawful only for priests to eat.(E) And he also gave some to his companions.” 5 Then Jesus said to them, “The Son of Man(F) is Lord of the Sabbath.”

6 On another Sabbath(G) he went into the synagogue and was teaching, and a man was there whose right hand was shriveled. 7 The Pharisees and the teachers of the law were looking for a reason to accuse Jesus, so they watched him closely(H) to see if he would heal on the Sabbath.(I) 8 But Jesus knew what they were thinking(J) and said to the man with the shriveled hand, “Get up and stand in front of everyone.” So he got up and stood there.

9 Then Jesus said to them, “I ask you, which is lawful on the Sabbath: to do good or to do evil, to save life or to destroy it?”

10 He looked around at them all, and then said to the man, “Stretch out your hand.” He did so, and his hand was completely restored. 11 But the Pharisees and the teachers of the law were furious(K) and began to discuss with one another what they might do to Jesus.

The Twelve Apostles(L)

12 One of those days Jesus went out to a mountainside to pray, and spent the night praying to God.(M) 13 When morning came, he called his disciples to him and chose twelve of them, whom he also designated apostles:(N) 14 Simon (whom he named Peter), his brother Andrew, James, John, Philip, Bartholomew, 15 Matthew,(O) Thomas, James son of Alphaeus, Simon who was called the Zealot, 16 Judas son of James, and Judas Iscariot, who became a traitor.

Blessings and Woes(P)

17 He went down with them and stood on a level place. A large crowd of his disciples was there and a great number of people from all over Judea, from Jerusalem, and from the coastal region around Tyre and Sidon,(Q) 18 who had come to hear him and to be healed of their diseases. Those troubled by impure spirits were cured, 19 and the people all tried to touch him,(R) because power was coming from him and healing them all.(S)

20 Looking at his disciples, he said:

“Blessed are you who are poor,
    for yours is the kingdom of God.(T)
21 Blessed are you who hunger now,
    for you will be satisfied.(U)
Blessed are you who weep now,
    for you will laugh.(V)
22 Blessed are you when people hate you,
    when they exclude you(W) and insult you(X)
    and reject your name as evil,
        because of the Son of Man.(Y)

23 “Rejoice in that day and leap for joy,(Z) because great is your reward in heaven. For that is how their ancestors treated the prophets.(AA)

24 “But woe to you who are rich,(AB)
    for you have already received your comfort.(AC)
25 Woe to you who are well fed now,
    for you will go hungry.(AD)
Woe to you who laugh now,
    for you will mourn and weep.(AE)
26 Woe to you when everyone speaks well of you,
    for that is how their ancestors treated the false prophets.(AF)

Love for Enemies(AG)

27 “But to you who are listening I say: Love your enemies, do good to those who hate you,(AH) 28 bless those who curse you, pray for those who mistreat you.(AI) 29 If someone slaps you on one cheek, turn to them the other also. If someone takes your coat, do not withhold your shirt from them. 30 Give to everyone who asks you, and if anyone takes what belongs to you, do not demand it back.(AJ) 31 Do to others as you would have them do to you.(AK)

32 “If you love those who love you, what credit is that to you?(AL) Even sinners love those who love them. 33 And if you do good to those who are good to you, what credit is that to you? Even sinners do that. 34 And if you lend to those from whom you expect repayment, what credit is that to you?(AM) Even sinners lend to sinners, expecting to be repaid in full. 35 But love your enemies, do good to them,(AN) and lend to them without expecting to get anything back. Then your reward will be great, and you will be children(AO) of the Most High,(AP) because he is kind to the ungrateful and wicked. 36 Be merciful,(AQ) just as your Father(AR) is merciful.

Judging Others(AS)

37 “Do not judge, and you will not be judged.(AT) Do not condemn, and you will not be condemned. Forgive, and you will be forgiven.(AU) 38 Give, and it will be given to you. A good measure, pressed down, shaken together and running over, will be poured into your lap.(AV) For with the measure you use, it will be measured to you.”(AW)

39 He also told them this parable: “Can the blind lead the blind? Will they not both fall into a pit?(AX) 40 The student is not above the teacher, but everyone who is fully trained will be like their teacher.(AY)

41 “Why do you look at the speck of sawdust in your brother’s eye and pay no attention to the plank in your own eye? 42 How can you say to your brother, ‘Brother, let me take the speck out of your eye,’ when you yourself fail to see the plank in your own eye? You hypocrite, first take the plank out of your eye, and then you will see clearly to remove the speck from your brother’s eye.

A Tree and Its Fruit(AZ)

43 “No good tree bears bad fruit, nor does a bad tree bear good fruit. 44 Each tree is recognized by its own fruit.(BA) People do not pick figs from thornbushes, or grapes from briers. 45 A good man brings good things out of the good stored up in his heart, and an evil man brings evil things out of the evil stored up in his heart. For the mouth speaks what the heart is full of.(BB)

The Wise and Foolish Builders(BC)

46 “Why do you call me, ‘Lord, Lord,’(BD) and do not do what I say?(BE) 47 As for everyone who comes to me and hears my words and puts them into practice,(BF) I will show you what they are like. 48 They are like a man building a house, who dug down deep and laid the foundation on rock. When a flood came, the torrent struck that house but could not shake it, because it was well built. 49 But the one who hears my words and does not put them into practice is like a man who built a house on the ground without a foundation. The moment the torrent struck that house, it collapsed and its destruction was complete.”
