11:1 et factum est cum consummasset          1.  And it came to pass, when Jesus had
Iesus praecipiens duodecim discipulis        made an end of commanding his twelve
suis transiit inde ut doceret et             disciples, he departed thence to teach
praedicaret in civitatibus eorum             and to preach in their cities.
                                             
11:2 Iohannes autem cum audisset in          2.  Now when John had heard in the
vinculis opera Christi mittens duos de       prison the works of Christ, he sent two
discipulis suis                              of his disciples,
                                             
11:3 ait illi tu es qui venturus es an       3.  And said unto him, Art thou he that
alium expectamus                             should come, or do we look for another?
                                             
11:4 et respondens Iesus ait illis           4.  Jesus answered and said unto them,
euntes renuntiate Iohanni quae auditis       Go and shew John again those things
et videtis                                   which ye do hear and see:
                                             
11:5 caeci vident claudi ambulant            5.  The blind receive their sight, and
leprosi mundantur surdi audiunt mortui       the lame walk, the lepers are cleansed,
resurgunt pauperes evangelizantur            and the deaf hear, the dead are raised
                                             up, and the poor have the gospel
                                             preached to them.
                                             
11:6 et beatus est qui non fuerit            6.  And blessed is he, whosoever shall
scandalizatus in me                          not be offended in me.
                                             
11:7 illis autem abeuntibus coepit           7.  And as they departed, Jesus began
Iesus dicere ad turbas de Iohanne quid       to say unto the multitudes concerning
existis in desertum videre harundinem        John, What went ye out into the
vento agitatam                               wilderness to see? A reed shaken with
                                             the wind?
                                             
11:8 sed quid existis videre hominem         8.  But what went ye out for to see? A
mollibus vestitum ecce qui mollibus          man clothed in soft raiment? behold,
vestiuntur in domibus regum sunt             they that wear soft clothing are in
                                             kings' houses.
                                             
11:9 sed quid existis videre prophetam       9.  But what went ye out for to see? A
etiam dico vobis et plus quam prophetam      prophet? yea, I say unto you, and more
                                             than a prophet.
                                             
11:10 hic enim est de quo scriptum est       10.  For this is he, of whom it is
ecce ego mitto angelum meum ante faciem      written, Behold, I send my messenger
tuam qui praeparabit viam tuam ante te       before thy face, which shall prepare
                                             thy way before thee.
                                             
11:11 amen dico vobis non surrexit           11.  Verily I say unto you, Among them
inter natos mulierum maior Iohanne           that are born of women there hath not
Baptista qui autem minor est in regno        risen a greater than John the Baptist:
caelorum maior est illo                      notwithstanding he that is least in the
                                             kingdom of heaven is greater than he.
                                             
11:12 a diebus autem Iohannis Baptistae      12.  And from the days of John the
usque nunc regnum caelorum vim patitur       Baptist until now the kingdom of heaven
et violenti rapiunt illud                    suffereth violence, and the violent
                                             take it by force.
                                             
11:13 omnes enim prophetae et lex usque      13.  For all the prophets and the law
ad Iohannem prophetaverunt                   prophesied until John.
                                             
11:14 et si vultis recipere ipse est         14.  And if ye will receive it, this is
Helias qui venturus est                      Elias, which was for to come.
                                             
11:15 qui habet aures audiendi audiat        15.  He that hath ears to hear, let him
                                             hear.
                                             
11:16 cui autem similem aestimabo            16.  But whereunto shall I liken this
generationem istam similis est pueris        generation? It is like unto children
sedentibus in foro qui clamantes             sitting in the markets, and calling
coaequalibus                                 unto their fellows,
                                             
11:17 dicunt cecinimus vobis et non          17.  And saying, We have piped unto
saltastis lamentavimus et non planxistis     you, and ye have not danced; we have
                                             mourned unto you, and ye have not
                                             lamented.
                                             
11:18 venit enim Iohannes neque              18.  For John came neither eating nor
manducans neque bibens et dicunt             drinking, and they say, He hath a devil.
daemonium habet                              

11:19 venit Filius hominis manducans et      19.  The Son of man came eating and
bibens et dicunt ecce homo vorax et          drinking, and they say, Behold a man
potator vini publicanorum et peccatorum      gluttonous, and a winebibber, a friend
amicus et iustificata est sapientia a        of publicans and sinners. But wisdom is
filiis suis                                  justified of her children.
                                             
11:20 tunc coepit exprobrare                 20.  Then began he to upbraid the
civitatibus in quibus factae sunt            cities wherein most of his mighty works
plurimae virtutes eius quia non              were done, because they repented not:
egissent paenitentiam                        

11:21 vae tibi Corazain vae tibi             21.  Woe unto thee, Chorazin! woe unto
Bethsaida quia si in Tyro et Sidone          thee, Bethsaida! for if the mighty
factae essent virtutes quae factae sunt      works, which were done in you, had been
in vobis olim in cilicio et cinere           done in Tyre and Sidon, they would have
paenitentiam egissent                        repented long ago in sackcloth and
                                             ashes.
                                             
11:22 verumtamen dico vobis Tyro et          22.  But I say unto you, It shall be
Sidoni remissius erit in die iudicii         more tolerable for Tyre and Sidon at
quam vobis                                   the day of judgment, than for you.
                                             
11:23 et tu Capharnaum numquid usque in      23.  And thou, Capernaum, which art
caelum exaltaberis usque in infernum         exalted unto heaven, shalt be brought
descendes quia si in Sodomis factae          down to hell: for if the mighty works,
fuissent virtutes quae factae sunt in        which have been done in thee, had been
te forte mansissent usque in hunc diem       done in Sodom, it would have remained
                                             until this day.
                                             
11:24 verumtamen dico vobis quia terrae      24.  But I say unto you, That it shall
Sodomorum remissius erit in die iudicii      be more tolerable for the land of Sodom
quam tibi                                    in the day of judgment, than for thee.
                                             
11:25 in illo tempore respondens Iesus       25.  At that time Jesus answered and
dixit confiteor tibi Pater Domine caeli      said, I thank thee, O Father, Lord of
et terrae quia abscondisti haec a            heaven and earth, because thou hast hid
sapientibus et prudentibus et revelasti      these things from the wise and prudent,
ea parvulis                                  and hast revealed them unto babes.
                                             
11:26 ita Pater quoniam sic fuit             26.  Even so, Father: for so it seemed
placitum ante te                             good in thy sight.
                                             
11:27 omnia mihi tradita sunt a Patre        27.  All things are delivered unto me
meo et nemo novit Filium nisi Pater          of my Father: and no man knoweth the
neque Patrem quis novit nisi Filius et       Son, but the Father; neither knoweth
cui voluerit Filius revelare                 any man the Father, save the Son, and
                                             he to whomsoever the Son will reveal
                                             him.
                                             
11:28 venite ad me omnes qui laboratis       28.  Come unto me, all ye that labour
et onerati estis et ego reficiam vos         and are heavy laden, and I will give
                                             you rest.
                                             
11:29 tollite iugum meum super vos et        29.  Take my yoke upon you, and learn
discite a me quia mitis sum et humilis       of me; for I am meek and lowly in
corde et invenietis requiem animabus         heart: and ye shall find rest unto your
vestris                                      souls.
                                             
11:30 iugum enim meum suave est et onus      30.  For my yoke is easy, and my burden
meum leve est                                is light.
