57:1
MATTH. VIII 19-22; Luc. IX, 57-62. Et accedens unus scriba, ait illi: Magister, sequar te quocunqne ierIs. ET dicit ei Jesus: Vulpes foveas habent, et volucres coeli nidos: Filius autem hominis non habet ubi caput reclinet. Ait autem ad alterum: Sequere me. Ille autem dixit: Domine, permitte mihi primum ire et sepelire patrem meum. Jesus autem ait illi: Sequere me, et dimitte mortuos sepelire mortuos suos: tu autem vade, annuntia regnum Dei. Et ait alter: Sequar te, Domine, sed primum permitte mihi renuntiare his * qui domi sunt. Ait ad illum Jesus: Nemo mittens manum suam ad aratrum, et respiciens retro, aptus est regno Dei.
馬太福音八章19至22節；路加福音九章57至62節。有一個文士來，對他說：夫子，你無論往哪裡去，我要跟從你。耶穌說：狐狸有洞，天空的飛鳥有窩，人子卻沒有枕頭的地方。又對另一個人說：跟從我來。那人說：主，容我先回去埋葬我的父親。耶穌說：跟從我來，任憑死人埋葬他們的死人，你只管去傳揚神國的道。又有一人說：主，我要跟從你，但容我先去辭別我家裡的人。耶穌說：手扶著犁向後看的，不配進神的國。
Matthew 8:19-22; Luke 9:57-62. And a certain scribe came and said to him: Master, I will follow you wherever you go. And Jesus said to him: The foxes have holes, and the birds of the air have nests; but the Son of Man has nowhere to lay his head. And he said to another: Follow me. But he said: Lord, allow me first to go and bury my father. But Jesus said to him: Follow me, and let the dead bury their own dead; but you, go and proclaim the kingdom of God. And another said: I will follow you, Lord, but first allow me to bid farewell to those who are at my home. Jesus said to him: No one who puts his hand to the plow and looks back is fit for the kingdom of God.
