| So všetkou pokorou, miernosťou a zhovievavosťou. Znášajte sa navzájom v láske. | With all lowliness and meekness, with longsuffering, forbearing one another in love. |
| Nerobte nič z nevraživosti ani pre márnu slávu, ale v pokore pokladajte jeden druhého za vyššieho. | Let nothing be done through strife or vainglory; but in lowliness of mind let each esteem other better than themselves. |
| Príde pýcha, príde aj hanba, múdrosť sa však (zdržiava) u skromných. | When pride cometh, then cometh shame: but with the lowly is wisdom. |
| Navzájom rovnako zmýšľajte; a nezmýšľajte vysoko, ale prikláňajte sa k nízkym. Nebuďte múdri sami pre seba. | Be of the same mind one toward another. Mind not high things, but condescend to men of low estate. Be not wise in your own conceits. |
| Pokorte sa pred Pánom a on vás povýši. | Humble yourselves in the sight of the Lord, and he shall lift you up. |
| Vaša ozdoba nech nie je vonkajšia: zapletené vlasy, navešané zlato, preobliekanie šiat, ale človek skrytý v srdci a čo je neporušiteľné: tichý a pokojný duch; to je vzácne pred Bohom. | Whose adorning let it not be that outward adorning of plaiting the hair, and of wearing of gold, or of putting on of apparel; But let it be the hidden man of the heart, in that which is not corruptible, even the ornament of a meek and quiet spirit, which is in the sight of God of great price. |
| Ako Boží vyvolenci, svätí a milovaní, oblečte si hlboké milosrdenstvo, láskavosť, pokoru, miernosť a trpezlivosť. | Put on therefore, as the elect of God, holy and beloved, bowels of mercies, kindness, humbleness of mind, meekness, longsuffering. |
| Vlastná pýcha ponižuje človeka, ponížený duchom však dosahuje slávu. | A man's pride shall bring him low: but honour shall uphold the humble in spirit. |
| Odmena poníženej bázne pred Pánom je bohatstvo a česť a život (pospolu). | By humility and the fear of the Lord are riches, and honour, and life. |
| Pokorte sa teda pod mocnou Božou rukou, aby vás povýšil v určenom čase. | Humble yourselves therefore under the mighty hand of God, that he may exalt you in due time. |
| A môj ľud, ktorý sa volá mojím menom, sa skloní a bude sa modliť, bude hľadať moju tvár a odvráti sa od svojich zlých ciest, ja vypočujem z neba, odpustím ich vinu a ich zem uzdravím. | If my people, which are called by my name, shall humble themselves, and pray, and seek my face, and turn from their wicked ways; then will I hear from heaven, and will forgive their sin, and will heal their land. |
| Vezmite na seba moje jarmo a učte sa odo mňa, lebo som tichý a pokorný srdcom; a nájdete odpočinok pre svoju dušu. Moje jarmo je príjemné a moje bremeno ľahké. | Take my yoke upon you, and learn of me; for I am meek and lowly in heart: and ye shall find rest unto your souls. For my yoke is easy, and my burden is light. |
| Kto je medzi vami múdry a rozumný? Nech dobrým životom ukáže svoje skutky v múdrej skromnosti. | Who is a wise man and endued with knowledge among you? let him shew out of a good conversation his works with meekness of wisdom. |
| Pred skazou (býva) povýšenosť srdca ľudského, pred slávou je však pokora. | Before destruction the heart of man is haughty, and before honour is humility. |
| Napokon buďte všetci jednomyseľní, súcitní, bratsky sa milujte! Buďte milosrdní a pokorní! | Finally, be ye all of one mind, having compassion one of another, love as brethren, be pitiful, be courteous. |
| Sadol si, zavolal Dvanástich a povedal im: „Kto chce byť prvý, nech je posledný zo všetkých a služobník všetkých.“ | And he sat down, and called the twelve, and saith unto them, If any man desire to be first, the same shall be last of all, and servant of all. |
| Čo je svetu neurodzené a čím pohŕda, to si vyvolil Boh, ba aj to, čoho niet, aby zmaril to, čo je, aby sa pred Bohom nik nevystatoval. | And base things of the world, and things which are despised, hath God chosen, yea, and things which are not, to bring to nought things that are: That no flesh should glory in his presence. |
| Oznámili ti, človeče, čo je dobré a čo žiada Pán od teba: iba zachovávať právo, milovať milosrdenstvo a pokorne chodiť so svojím Bohom. | He hath shewed thee, O man, what is good; and what doth the Lord require of thee, but to do justly, and to love mercy, and to walk humbly with thy God? |
| Keď teda dávaš almužnu, nevytrubuj pred sebou, ako to robia pokrytci v synagógach a po uliciach, aby ich ľudia chválili. Veru, hovorím vám: Už dostali svoju odmenu. | Therefore when thou doest thine alms, do not sound a trumpet before thee, as the hypocrites do in the synagogues and in the streets, that they may have glory of men. Verily I say unto you, They have their reward. |
| Výchovou k múdrosti je bázeň pred Pánom, pred slávou je však pokora. | The fear of the Lord is the instruction of wisdom; and before honour is humility. |
| Pán je dobrý a spravodlivý: ukazuje cestu hriešnikom. Pokorných vedie k správnemu konaniu a tichých poúča o svojich cestách. | Good and upright is the Lord: therefore will he teach sinners in the way. The meek will he guide in judgment: and the meek will he teach his way. |
| Ženy, podriaďujte sa mužom, ako sa sluší v Pánovi! Muži, milujte manželky a nebuďte voči nim nevrlí! | Wives, submit yourselves unto your own husbands, as it is fit in the Lord. Husbands, love your wives, and be not bitter against them. |
| A povedal im: „Kto prijme toto dieťa v mojom mene, mňa prijíma. A kto prijíma mňa, prijíma toho, ktorý ma poslal. Lebo kto je medzi vami najmenší, ten je veľký.“ | And said unto them, Whosoever shall receive this child in my name receiveth me: and whosoever shall receive me receiveth him that sent me: for he that is least among you all, the same shall be great. |
| Lebo vy ste povolaní pre slobodu, bratia, len nedávajte slobodu za príležitosť telu, ale navzájom si slúžte v láske! | For, brethren, ye have been called unto liberty; only use not liberty for an occasion to the flesh, but by love serve one another. |
| A Bohu a nášmu Otcovi sláva na veky vekov. Amen. | Now unto God and our Father be glory for ever and ever. Amen. |
