Luke 12 according to Papyrus 45 Meanwhile, when a multitude of many
thousands had gathered together, so much so that they trampled on each
other, he began to tell his disciples first
of all, “Beware of the yeast
of the Pharisees, which is hypocrisy. 2 But
there is nothing covered up that will not be
revealed, 4 “I tell you, my friends, don’t be afraid of those who kill the body, and after that have no more that they can do. 5 But I will warn you whom you should fear. Fear him who after he has killed, has power to cast into Gehenna. Yes, I tell you, fear him. 6 “Aren’t five sparrows sold for two assaria coins? Not one of them is forgotten by God. 7 But the very hairs of your head are all counted. Therefore don’t be afraid. You are of more value than many sparrows. 8 “I
tell you, everyone who confesses me before men, the Son
of Man will also confess before the angels of God; 13 One of the multitude said to him, “Teacher, tell my brother to divide the inheritance with me.” [..] 18 He said, ‘This is what I will do. I will pull down my barns, build bigger ones, and there I will store all my grain and my goods. 19 I will tell my soul, “Soul, you have many goods laid up for many years. Take your ease, eat, drink, and be merry.”’ 20 “But God said to him, ‘You foolish one, tonight your soul is required of you. The things which you have prepared—whose will they be?’ 21 So is he who lays up treasure for himself, and is not rich toward God.” 22 He
said to his disciples, “Therefore
I tell you, don’t be anxious for your life, what you will
eat, nor yet for your body, what you will wear. 23 Life
is more than food, and the body is more than
clothing. 24 Consider
the birds of the heaven and the ravens:
they don’t sow, they don’t reap, they have no warehouse or barn, and God feeds them. How much more valuable are you than birds! 25 Which
of you by being anxious can add a cubit to his height? 26 If
then you aren’t able to do even the least things, why are you anxious about the
rest? 27 Consider the lilies,
how they grow. They don’t toil, neither do they
spin; yet I tell you, even Solomon in 35 “Let your waist be dressed and your lamps burning. 36 Be like men watching for their lord, when he returns from the wedding feast; that when he comes and knocks, they may immediately open to him. 37 Blessed are those servants whom the lord will find watching when he comes. Most certainly I tell you that he will dress himself, make them recline, and will come and serve them. [..] 42 The
Lord said, “Who then is the faithful and wise steward, whom his lord will set over his
household, to give them their portion
of food at the right times? 43 Blessed
is that servant whom his
lord will find doing so
when he comes. 44 Truly I tell you, that he
will set him over all that he has. 45 But
if that servant says in his heart, ‘My lord delays his coming,’ and begins to beat
the menservants and the maidservants, and to
eat and drink, and to be drunken, 46 then
the lord of that servant will come in a
day when he isn’t expecting him,
and in an hour that he doesn’t know, and will cut him
in two, and place his portion with the
unfaithful. 47 That servant, who knew his
lord’s will, and didn’t 49 “I
came to throw fire on the earth. I wish it
were already kindled. 50 But I
have a baptism to be baptized with, and how
distressed I am until it is accomplished! 51 Do
you think that I have come to give peace 54 He
said to the multitudes also, “When you see a cloud
rising from the west, immediately you say,
