Babala Laban sa Pagkukunwari(A)
12 Samantala,(B) dumaragsa ang libu-libong tao, at sa sobrang dami ay nagkakatapakan na sila. Sinabi ni Jesus sa kanyang mga alagad, “Mag-ingat kayo sa pampaalsang ginagamit ng mga Pariseo. Ang tinutukoy ko ay ang kanilang pagkukunwari. 2 Walang(C) natatago na di malalantad at walang nalilihim na di mabubunyag. 3 Ang sinabi ninyo sa dilim ay maririnig sa liwanag at ang ibinulong ninyo sa loob ng silid ay ipagsisigawan sa lansangan.
Ang Dapat Katakutan(D)
4 “Sinasabi ko sa inyo, mga kaibigan, huwag kayong matakot sa mga taong pumapatay ng katawan at wala nang kayang gawin higit pa rito. 5 Sasabihin ko sa inyo kung sino ang dapat ninyong katakutan. Katakutan ninyo siya na pagkatapos pumatay ay may kapangyarihan ding magtapon sa impiyerno. Sinasabi ko sa inyo, ang Diyos ang dapat ninyong katakutan!
6 “Hindi ba't ipinagbibili ang limang maya sa halaga lamang ng dalawang salaping tanso? Gayunman, kahit isa sa kanila'y hindi kinakalimutan ng Diyos. 7 Maging ang buhok ninyo'y bilang niyang lahat. Kaya't huwag kayong matakot; higit kayong mahalaga kaysa maraming maya.”
Pagkilala kay Cristo(E)
8 “Sinasabi ko rin sa inyo, ang sinumang kumilala sa akin sa harapan ng mga tao ay kikilalanin din naman ng Anak ng Tao sa harapan ng mga anghel ng Diyos. 9 Ngunit ang magkaila sa akin sa harap ng mga tao ay ikakaila ko rin naman sa harap ng mga anghel ng Diyos.
10 “Ang(F) sinumang magsalita laban sa Anak ng Tao ay patatawarin, ngunit ang sinumang lumapastangan sa Espiritu Santo ay hindi patatawarin.
11 “Kapag(G) kayo'y dinala nila sa sinagoga, o sa harap ng mga pinuno at ng mga may kapangyarihan upang litisin, huwag kayong mabahala kung paano ninyo ipagtatanggol ang inyong sarili o kung ano ang inyong sasabihin 12 sapagkat sa oras na iyon, ang Espiritu Santo ang magtuturo sa inyo kung ano ang dapat ninyong sabihin.”
Maling Pag-iipon ng Kayamanan
13 Sinabi kay Jesus ng isa sa mga naroroon, “Guro, iutos nga po ninyo sa kapatid ko na paghatian namin ang aming mana.”
14 Sumagot siya, “Sino ang naglagay sa akin bilang hukom o tagapaghati ng mana ninyo?” 15 At sinabi niya sa kanilang lahat, “Mag-ingat kayo sa lahat ng uri ng kasakiman; sapagkat ang buhay ng tao ay wala sa dami ng kanyang kayamanan.”
16 Pagkatapos, isinalaysay ni Jesus ang isang talinghaga. “Isang mayaman ang umani nang sagana sa kanyang bukirin. 17 Kaya't nasabi niya sa sarili, ‘Ano ang gagawin ko ngayon? Wala na akong paglagyan ng aking mga ani! 18 Alam ko na! Ipagigiba ko ang aking mga kamalig at magpapatayo ako ng mas malalaki. Doon ko ilalagay ang aking ani at ibang ari-arian. 19 Pagkatapos,(H) ay sasabihin ko sa aking sarili, marami ka nang naipon para sa mahabang panahon. Kaya't magpahinga ka na lamang, kumain, uminom, at magpakasaya!’
20 “Ngunit sinabi sa kanya ng Diyos, ‘Hangal! Sa gabi ring ito'y babawian ka na ng buhay. Kanino ngayon mapupunta ang mga inilaan mo para sa iyong sarili?’ 21 Ganyan ang sasapitin ng sinumang nag-iipon ng kayamanan para sa sarili, ngunit dukha naman sa paningin ng Diyos.”
Pananalig sa Diyos(I)
22 Sinabi pa ni Jesus sa kanyang mga alagad, “Kaya't sinasabi ko sa inyo: huwag kayong mabalisa tungkol sa inyong buhay, sa inyong kakainin, o tungkol sa damit na kailangan ng inyong katawan. 23 Sapagkat ang buhay ay higit pa kaysa pagkain at ang katawan kaysa damit. 24 Tingnan ninyo ang mga uwak, hindi sila nagtatanim ni umaani man; wala rin silang imbakan o kamalig; ngunit pinapakain sila ng Diyos. Higit kayong mahalaga kaysa mga ibon! 25 Sino sa inyo ang makakapagdagdag sa kanyang buhay[a] ng kahit isang oras dahil sa pagkabalisa? 26 Kung hindi ninyo magawâ ang ganoong kaliit na bagay, bakit kayo nababalisa tungkol sa ibang mga bagay? 27 Tingnan(J) ninyo ang mga bulaklak sa parang kung paano sila lumalago. Hindi sila nagtatrabaho ni humahabi man. Ngunit sinasabi ko sa inyo, kahit si Solomon sa kanyang karangyaan ay hindi nakapagdamit ng singganda ng isa sa mga bulaklak na ito. 28 Kung dinadamitan ng Diyos ang mga damo sa parang na buháy ngayon at kinabukasa'y iginagatong sa kalan, kayo pa kaya? Kay liit ng inyong pananampalataya! 29 Kaya't huwag kayong labis na mag-isip kung saan kayo kukuha ng kakainin at iinumin. Huwag na kayong mangamba. 30 Ang mga bagay na ito ang pinagkakaabalahan ng mga taong di nananalig sa Diyos. Alam ng inyong Ama na kailangan ninyo ang lahat ng iyan. 31 Subalit, bigyang halaga ninyo nang higit sa lahat ang kaharian ng Diyos, at ibibigay niya sa inyo ang mga bagay na ito.”
Ang Kayamanang Hindi Mawawala(K)
32 “Huwag kayong matakot, munting kawan, sapagkat ikinalulugod ng inyong Ama na ibigay sa inyo ang kaharian. 33 Ipagbili ninyo ang inyong ari-arian, at ipamahagi sa mga dukha ang pinagbilhan! Gumawa kayo ng mga sisidlang hindi naluluma at mag-ipon kayo sa langit ng kayamanang hindi nauubos. Doo'y walang magnanakaw na pumapasok at insektong sumisira. 34 Sapagkat kung nasaan ang inyong kayamanan ay naroon din ang inyong puso.”
Mga Aliping Laging Handa
35 “Maging(L) handa kayong lagi at panatilihing maliwanag ang inyong mga ilawan. 36 Tumulad(M) kayo sa mga aliping naghihintay sa pag-uwi ng kanilang panginoon buhat sa kasalan, upang kung ito'y dumating at kumatok ay mabuksan nila agad ang pinto. 37 Pinagpala ang mga aliping aabutang nagbabantay pagdating ng kanilang panginoon. Tandaan ninyo: magbibihis siya at pauupuin sila, ipaghahanda sila ng pagkain at pagsisilbihan. 38 Pinagpala sila kung maratnan silang handa pagdating ng Panginoon, maging sa hatinggabi o sa madaling-araw man. 39 Sinasabi(N) ko sa inyo, kung alam lamang ng may-ari ng bahay kung anong oras darating ang magnanakaw, hindi niya pababayaang makapasok ito. 40 Kayo man ay dapat na humanda, sapagkat darating ang Anak ng Tao sa oras na hindi ninyo inaasahan.”
Ang Tapat at Di Tapat na Alipin(O)
41 Nagtanong si Pedro, “Panginoon, sinasabi po ba ninyo ang talinghagang ito para sa amin o para sa lahat?”
42 Sumagot ang Panginoon, “Sino nga ba ang tapat at matalinong katiwala? Sino ang katiwalang pamamahalain ng kanyang panginoon sa kanyang sambahayan upang magbigay sa ibang mga alipin ng kanilang pagkain sa takdang oras? 43 Pinagpala ang aliping madaratnang gumaganap ng tungkulin pag-uwi ng kanyang panginoon. 44 Sinasabi ko sa inyo, pamamahalain siya ng kanyang panginoon sa lahat ng ari-arian nito. 45 Ngunit kung sasabihin ng aliping iyon sa kanyang sarili, ‘Matatagalan pa ang pag-uwi ng aking panginoon,’ bubugbugin niya ang mga kapwa niya aliping lalaki at babae, at siya'y kakain, iinom at maglalasing, 46 darating ang kanyang panginoon sa araw na hindi niya inaasahan at sa oras na hindi niya alam. Buong lupit siyang paparusahan[b] ng kanyang panginoon, at isasama sa mga suwail.
47 “Ang aliping nakakaalam ng kalooban ng kanyang panginoon ngunit nagpapabaya, o ayaw tumupad sa ipinapagawa nito ay paparusahan nang mabigat. 48 Ngunit ang aliping hindi nakakaalam ng kalooban ng kanyang panginoon, magkulang man siya sa kanyang tungkulin, ay paparusahan lamang nang magaan. Ang binigyan ng maraming bagay ay hahanapan ng marami; at ang pinagkatiwalaan ng lalong maraming bagay ay pananagutin ng lalong marami.”
Pagkabaha-bahagi ng Sambahayan(P)
49 “Naparito ako upang magdala ng apoy sa lupa at sana'y nagliliyab na ito! 50 May(Q) isang bautismo na dapat kong danasin, at ako'y nababagabag hangga't hindi ito nagaganap. 51 Akala ba ninyo'y naparito ako upang magdala ng kapayapaan sa lupa? Sinasabi ko sa inyo, hindi kapayapaan ang dala ko kundi pagkabaha-bahagi. 52 Mula ngayon, ang lima sa isang sambahayan ay mahahati, tatlo laban sa dalawa at dalawa laban sa tatlo.
53 Ang(R) ama laban sa anak na lalaki,
at ang anak na lalaki laban sa ama;
ang ina laban sa anak na babae,
at ang anak na babae laban sa ina;
ang biyenang babae laban sa manugang na babae,
at ang manugang na babae laban sa biyenang babae.”
Pagkilala sa mga Palatandaan(S)
54 Sinabi rin ni Jesus sa mga tao, “Kapag nakita ninyong kumakapal ang ulap sa kanluran, sinasabi ninyo agad na uulan, at ganoon nga ang nangyayari. 55 At kung umiihip ang hangin mula sa katimugan ay sinasabi ninyong iinit, at nagkakaganoon nga. 56 Mga mapagkunwari! Marunong kayong umunawa ng palatandaan sa lupa at sa langit, bakit hindi ninyo nauunawaan ang mga tanda ng kasalukuyang panahon?”
Makipagkasundo sa Kaaway(T)
57 “Bakit hindi ninyo mapagpasyahan kung ano ang tamang gawin? 58 Kapag ikaw ay isinakdal, sikapin mong makipagkasundo ka sa nagsakdal sa iyo bago dumating sa hukuman; baka kaladkarin ka niya sa hukom, at ibigay ka ng hukom sa tanod, at ibilanggo ka naman nito. 59 Sinasabi ko sa iyo, hindi ka makakalabas doon hangga't hindi mo nababayaran ang kahuli-hulihang sentimo.”

King James Version
Luke 12
King James Version
12 In the mean time, when there were gathered together an innumerable multitude of people, insomuch that they trode one upon another, he began to say unto his disciples first of all, Beware ye of the leaven of the Pharisees, which is hypocrisy.
2 For there is nothing covered, that shall not be revealed; neither hid, that shall not be known.
3 Therefore whatsoever ye have spoken in darkness shall be heard in the light; and that which ye have spoken in the ear in closets shall be proclaimed upon the housetops.
4 And I say unto you my friends, Be not afraid of them that kill the body, and after that have no more that they can do.
5 But I will forewarn you whom ye shall fear: Fear him, which after he hath killed hath power to cast into hell; yea, I say unto you, Fear him.
6 Are not five sparrows sold for two farthings, and not one of them is forgotten before God?
7 But even the very hairs of your head are all numbered. Fear not therefore: ye are of more value than many sparrows.
8 Also I say unto you, Whosoever shall confess me before men, him shall the Son of man also confess before the angels of God:
9 But he that denieth me before men shall be denied before the angels of God.
10 And whosoever shall speak a word against the Son of man, it shall be forgiven him: but unto him that blasphemeth against the Holy Ghost it shall not be forgiven.
11 And when they bring you unto the synagogues, and unto magistrates, and powers, take ye no thought how or what thing ye shall answer, or what ye shall say:
12 For the Holy Ghost shall teach you in the same hour what ye ought to say.
13 And one of the company said unto him, Master, speak to my brother, that he divide the inheritance with me.
14 And he said unto him, Man, who made me a judge or a divider over you?
15 And he said unto them, Take heed, and beware of covetousness: for a man's life consisteth not in the abundance of the things which he possesseth.
16 And he spake a parable unto them, saying, The ground of a certain rich man brought forth plentifully:
17 And he thought within himself, saying, What shall I do, because I have no room where to bestow my fruits?
18 And he said, This will I do: I will pull down my barns, and build greater; and there will I bestow all my fruits and my goods.
19 And I will say to my soul, Soul, thou hast much goods laid up for many years; take thine ease, eat, drink, and be merry.
20 But God said unto him, Thou fool, this night thy soul shall be required of thee: then whose shall those things be, which thou hast provided?
21 So is he that layeth up treasure for himself, and is not rich toward God.
22 And he said unto his disciples, Therefore I say unto you, Take no thought for your life, what ye shall eat; neither for the body, what ye shall put on.
23 The life is more than meat, and the body is more than raiment.
24 Consider the ravens: for they neither sow nor reap; which neither have storehouse nor barn; and God feedeth them: how much more are ye better than the fowls?
25 And which of you with taking thought can add to his stature one cubit?
26 If ye then be not able to do that thing which is least, why take ye thought for the rest?
27 Consider the lilies how they grow: they toil not, they spin not; and yet I say unto you, that Solomon in all his glory was not arrayed like one of these.
28 If then God so clothe the grass, which is to day in the field, and to morrow is cast into the oven; how much more will he clothe you, O ye of little faith?
29 And seek not ye what ye shall eat, or what ye shall drink, neither be ye of doubtful mind.
30 For all these things do the nations of the world seek after: and your Father knoweth that ye have need of these things.
31 But rather seek ye the kingdom of God; and all these things shall be added unto you.
32 Fear not, little flock; for it is your Father's good pleasure to give you the kingdom.
33 Sell that ye have, and give alms; provide yourselves bags which wax not old, a treasure in the heavens that faileth not, where no thief approacheth, neither moth corrupteth.
34 For where your treasure is, there will your heart be also.
35 Let your loins be girded about, and your lights burning;
36 And ye yourselves like unto men that wait for their lord, when he will return from the wedding; that when he cometh and knocketh, they may open unto him immediately.
37 Blessed are those servants, whom the lord when he cometh shall find watching: verily I say unto you, that he shall gird himself, and make them to sit down to meat, and will come forth and serve them.
38 And if he shall come in the second watch, or come in the third watch, and find them so, blessed are those servants.
39 And this know, that if the goodman of the house had known what hour the thief would come, he would have watched, and not have suffered his house to be broken through.
40 Be ye therefore ready also: for the Son of man cometh at an hour when ye think not.
41 Then Peter said unto him, Lord, speakest thou this parable unto us, or even to all?
42 And the Lord said, Who then is that faithful and wise steward, whom his lord shall make ruler over his household, to give them their portion of meat in due season?
43 Blessed is that servant, whom his lord when he cometh shall find so doing.
44 Of a truth I say unto you, that he will make him ruler over all that he hath.
45 But and if that servant say in his heart, My lord delayeth his coming; and shall begin to beat the menservants and maidens, and to eat and drink, and to be drunken;
46 The lord of that servant will come in a day when he looketh not for him, and at an hour when he is not aware, and will cut him in sunder, and will appoint him his portion with the unbelievers.
47 And that servant, which knew his lord's will, and prepared not himself, neither did according to his will, shall be beaten with many stripes.
48 But he that knew not, and did commit things worthy of stripes, shall be beaten with few stripes. For unto whomsoever much is given, of him shall be much required: and to whom men have committed much, of him they will ask the more.
49 I am come to send fire on the earth; and what will I, if it be already kindled?
50 But I have a baptism to be baptized with; and how am I straitened till it be accomplished!
51 Suppose ye that I am come to give peace on earth? I tell you, Nay; but rather division:
52 For from henceforth there shall be five in one house divided, three against two, and two against three.
53 The father shall be divided against the son, and the son against the father; the mother against the daughter, and the daughter against the mother; the mother in law against her daughter in law, and the daughter in law against her mother in law.
54 And he said also to the people, When ye see a cloud rise out of the west, straightway ye say, There cometh a shower; and so it is.
55 And when ye see the south wind blow, ye say, There will be heat; and it cometh to pass.
56 Ye hypocrites, ye can discern the face of the sky and of the earth; but how is it that ye do not discern this time?
57 Yea, and why even of yourselves judge ye not what is right?
58 When thou goest with thine adversary to the magistrate, as thou art in the way, give diligence that thou mayest be delivered from him; lest he hale thee to the judge, and the judge deliver thee to the officer, and the officer cast thee into prison.
59 I tell thee, thou shalt not depart thence, till thou hast paid the very last mite.
Luke 12
New International Version
Luke 12
New International Version
Warnings and Encouragements(A)
12 Meanwhile, when a crowd of many thousands had gathered, so that they were trampling on one another, Jesus began to speak first to his disciples, saying: “Be[a] on your guard against the yeast of the Pharisees, which is hypocrisy.(B) 2 There is nothing concealed that will not be disclosed, or hidden that will not be made known.(C) 3 What you have said in the dark will be heard in the daylight, and what you have whispered in the ear in the inner rooms will be proclaimed from the roofs.
4 “I tell you, my friends,(D) do not be afraid of those who kill the body and after that can do no more. 5 But I will show you whom you should fear: Fear him who, after your body has been killed, has authority to throw you into hell. Yes, I tell you, fear him.(E) 6 Are not five sparrows sold for two pennies? Yet not one of them is forgotten by God. 7 Indeed, the very hairs of your head are all numbered.(F) Don’t be afraid; you are worth more than many sparrows.(G)
8 “I tell you, whoever publicly acknowledges me before others, the Son of Man will also acknowledge before the angels of God.(H) 9 But whoever disowns me before others will be disowned(I) before the angels of God. 10 And everyone who speaks a word against the Son of Man(J) will be forgiven, but anyone who blasphemes against the Holy Spirit will not be forgiven.(K)
11 “When you are brought before synagogues, rulers and authorities, do not worry about how you will defend yourselves or what you will say,(L) 12 for the Holy Spirit will teach you at that time what you should say.”(M)
The Parable of the Rich Fool
13 Someone in the crowd said to him, “Teacher, tell my brother to divide the inheritance with me.”
14 Jesus replied, “Man, who appointed me a judge or an arbiter between you?” 15 Then he said to them, “Watch out! Be on your guard against all kinds of greed; life does not consist in an abundance of possessions.”(N)
16 And he told them this parable: “The ground of a certain rich man yielded an abundant harvest. 17 He thought to himself, ‘What shall I do? I have no place to store my crops.’
18 “Then he said, ‘This is what I’ll do. I will tear down my barns and build bigger ones, and there I will store my surplus grain. 19 And I’ll say to myself, “You have plenty of grain laid up for many years. Take life easy; eat, drink and be merry.”’
20 “But God said to him, ‘You fool!(O) This very night your life will be demanded from you.(P) Then who will get what you have prepared for yourself?’(Q)
21 “This is how it will be with whoever stores up things for themselves but is not rich toward God.”(R)
Do Not Worry(S)
22 Then Jesus said to his disciples: “Therefore I tell you, do not worry about your life, what you will eat; or about your body, what you will wear. 23 For life is more than food, and the body more than clothes. 24 Consider the ravens: They do not sow or reap, they have no storeroom or barn; yet God feeds them.(T) And how much more valuable you are than birds! 25 Who of you by worrying can add a single hour to your life[b]? 26 Since you cannot do this very little thing, why do you worry about the rest?
27 “Consider how the wild flowers grow. They do not labor or spin. Yet I tell you, not even Solomon in all his splendor(U) was dressed like one of these. 28 If that is how God clothes the grass of the field, which is here today, and tomorrow is thrown into the fire, how much more will he clothe you—you of little faith!(V) 29 And do not set your heart on what you will eat or drink; do not worry about it. 30 For the pagan world runs after all such things, and your Father(W) knows that you need them.(X) 31 But seek his kingdom,(Y) and these things will be given to you as well.(Z)
32 “Do not be afraid,(AA) little flock, for your Father has been pleased to give you the kingdom.(AB) 33 Sell your possessions and give to the poor.(AC) Provide purses for yourselves that will not wear out, a treasure in heaven(AD) that will never fail, where no thief comes near and no moth destroys.(AE) 34 For where your treasure is, there your heart will be also.(AF)
Watchfulness(AG)(AH)
35 “Be dressed ready for service and keep your lamps burning, 36 like servants waiting for their master to return from a wedding banquet, so that when he comes and knocks they can immediately open the door for him. 37 It will be good for those servants whose master finds them watching when he comes.(AI) Truly I tell you, he will dress himself to serve, will have them recline at the table and will come and wait on them.(AJ) 38 It will be good for those servants whose master finds them ready, even if he comes in the middle of the night or toward daybreak. 39 But understand this: If the owner of the house had known at what hour the thief(AK) was coming, he would not have let his house be broken into. 40 You also must be ready,(AL) because the Son of Man will come at an hour when you do not expect him.”
41 Peter asked, “Lord, are you telling this parable to us, or to everyone?”
42 The Lord(AM) answered, “Who then is the faithful and wise manager, whom the master puts in charge of his servants to give them their food allowance at the proper time? 43 It will be good for that servant whom the master finds doing so when he returns. 44 Truly I tell you, he will put him in charge of all his possessions. 45 But suppose the servant says to himself, ‘My master is taking a long time in coming,’ and he then begins to beat the other servants, both men and women, and to eat and drink and get drunk. 46 The master of that servant will come on a day when he does not expect him and at an hour he is not aware of.(AN) He will cut him to pieces and assign him a place with the unbelievers.
47 “The servant who knows the master’s will and does not get ready or does not do what the master wants will be beaten with many blows.(AO) 48 But the one who does not know and does things deserving punishment will be beaten with few blows.(AP) From everyone who has been given much, much will be demanded; and from the one who has been entrusted with much, much more will be asked.
Not Peace but Division(AQ)
49 “I have come to bring fire on the earth, and how I wish it were already kindled! 50 But I have a baptism(AR) to undergo, and what constraint I am under until it is completed!(AS) 51 Do you think I came to bring peace on earth? No, I tell you, but division. 52 From now on there will be five in one family divided against each other, three against two and two against three. 53 They will be divided, father against son and son against father, mother against daughter and daughter against mother, mother-in-law against daughter-in-law and daughter-in-law against mother-in-law.”(AT)
Interpreting the Times
54 He said to the crowd: “When you see a cloud rising in the west, immediately you say, ‘It’s going to rain,’ and it does.(AU) 55 And when the south wind blows, you say, ‘It’s going to be hot,’ and it is. 56 Hypocrites! You know how to interpret the appearance of the earth and the sky. How is it that you don’t know how to interpret this present time?(AV)
57 “Why don’t you judge for yourselves what is right? 58 As you are going with your adversary to the magistrate, try hard to be reconciled on the way, or your adversary may drag you off to the judge, and the judge turn you over to the officer, and the officer throw you into prison.(AW) 59 I tell you, you will not get out until you have paid the last penny.”(AX)
