1Now a certain woman of the wives of the prophets, cried to Eliseus, saying: Thy servant, my husband, is dead, and thou knowest that thy servant was one that feared God, and behold the creditor is come to take away my two sons to serve him.Or una donna moglie di uno de' profeti sclamò, e disse ad Eliseo: Il mio marito tuo servo è morto, e tu sai, che il tuo servo era timorato del Signore: or ecco, che il suo creditore è venuto per prendere i due miei figliuoli, e farli suoi servi.AND a certayne woman of the wiues of the prophetes cried to Eliseus, saying: Thy seruant my husband is dead, and thou knowest that thy seruant was one that feared God, & behold the creditour is come to take away my two sonnes to serue him.Mulier autem quædam de uxoribus prophetarum clamabat ad Eliseum, dicens: Servus tuus vir meus mortuus est, et tu nosti quia servus tuus fuit timens Dominum: et ecce creditor venit ut tollat duos filios meos ad serviendum sibi. 2And Eliseus said to her: What wilt thou have me do for thee? Tell me, what hast thou in thy house? And she answered: I, thy handmaid, have nothing in my house but a little oil, to anoint me.Dissele Eliseo: Che vuoi, ch'io ti faccia? Dimmi, che hai in tua casa? Ed ella rispose: Io tua serva non no nulla in mia casa, eccetto un po' d'olio, per ungermi.To whom Eliseus sayd: What wilt thou that I doe for thee? Tel me, what hast thou in thy house? But she answered: I thy handmaid haue nothing in my house, but a litle oyle, to anoynt me withal.Cui dixit Eliseus: Quid vis ut faciam tibi ? dic mihi, quid habes in domo tua ? At illa respondit: Non habeo ancilla tua quidquam in domo mea, nisi parum olei quo ungar. 3And he said to her: Go, borrow of all thy neighbours empty vessels, not a few.Dissele egli: Va: chiedi in prestito da tutti i tuoi vicini de' vasi vuoti non pochi.To whom he sayd: Goe, borrow of al thy neighbours emptie vessels not a few.Cui ait: Vade, pete mutuo ab omnibus vicinis tuis vasa vacua non pauca, 4And go in, and shut thy door, when thou art within, and thy sons: and pour out thereof into all those vessels: and when they are full, take them away.E va, e chiudi la tua porta quando sarai dentro tu, e i tuoi figliuoli, e versa dell'olio in tutti que' vasi, e quando saran pieni, li porrai a parte.And goe in, and shut thy doore, when thou art within, thou and thy sonnes: and powre therof into al these vessels: and when they shal be ful, thou shalt take them away.et ingredere, et claude ostium tuum cum intrinsecus fueris tu, et filii tui: et mitte inde in omnia vasa hæc, et cum plena fuerint, tolles.

5So the woman went, and shut the door upon her, and upon her sons: they brought her the vessels, and she poured in.Andò pertanto la donna, e si chiuse in casa co' suoi figliuoli: quelli le presentavano i vasi, ed ella gli empiva.The woman therfore went, and shut the doore vpon her, and vpon her sonnes: they brought her vessels, and she powred in.Ivit itaque mulier, et clausit ostium super se, et super filios suos: illi offerebant vasa, et illa infundebat. 6And when the vessels were full, she said to her son: Bring me yet a vessel. And he answered: I have no more. And the oil stood.E quando tutti i vasi furon pieni, disse ella ad un de' figliuoli: Portami ancora un vaso. E quegli rispose: Non ne ho: e l'olio si fermò.And when the vessels were ful, she sayd to her sonne: Bring me yet a vessel. And he answered: I haue none. And the oile stood.Cumque plena fuissent vasa, dixit ad filium suum: Affer mihi adhuc vas. Et ille respondit: Non habeo. Stetitque oleum. 7And she came, and told the man of God. And he said: Go, sell the oil, and pay thy creditor: and thou and thy sons live of the rest.Ed ella andò, e riferì il tutto all'uomo di Dio, e quegli disse: Va, vendi l'olio, e paga il creditore, e del restante sostentati tu, e i tuoi figliuoli.And she came, and told the man of God. And he sayde, Goe, sel the oyle, and pay thy creditour: and thou and thy sonnes liue of the rest:Venit autem illa, et indicavit homini Dei. Et ille: Vade, inquit, vende oleum, et redde creditori tuo: tu autem, et filii tui vivite de reliquo. 8And there was a day when Eliseus passed by Sunam: now there was a great woman there, who detained him to eat bread: and as he passed often that way, he turned into her house to eat bread.Or un dì passava Eliseo per Sunam, dove era una donna grande, la quale lo trattenne, per dargli da mangiare; e siccome egli vi passava sovente, si fermava in casa di lei a mangiare.And there came a certayne day, and Eliseus passed by Sunam: and there was there a great woman, which held him to eate bread: and when he passed often that way, he turned in to her to eate bread.Facta est autem quædam dies, et transibat Eliseus per Sunam: erat autem ibi mulier magna, quæ tenuit eum ut comederet panem: cumque frequenter inde transiret, divertebat ad eam ut comederet panem. 9And she said to her husband: I perceive that this is a holy man of God, who often passeth by us.Ed ella disse a suo marito: Ho riconosciuto, che uomo santo di Dio egli è questi, che passa sovente di qua.Who sayd to her husband: I perceiue that this is a holie man of God, which passeth by vs often.Quæ dixit ad virum suum: Animadverto quod vir Dei sanctus est iste, qui transit per nos frequenter.

10Let us, therefore, make him a little chamber, and put a little bed in it for him, and a table, and a stool, and a candlestick, that when he cometh to us he may abide there.Facciamgli pertanto una piccola stanza, e mettiamovi un letto per lui e una mensa, e una sedia, e un candeliere, affinchè quando verrà da noi, egli vi alberghi.bet vs therfore make him a litle chamber, and sette him a litle bed in it, and a table, and a stoole, and a candlesticke, that when he cometh to vs he may tarie there.Faciamus ergo ei cœnaculum parvum, et ponamus ei in eo lectulum, et mensam, et sellam, et candelabrum, ut cum venerit ad nos, maneat ibi. 11Now, there was a certain day, when he came, and turned into the chamber, and rested there.Or un dato giorno egli arrivò, e andò nella stanza, e ivi si riposò.There came therfore a certayne day, and coming he turned in to the chamber, and rested there.Facta est ergo dies quædam, et veniens divertit in cœnaculum, et requievit ibi. 12And he said to Giezi, his servant: Call this Sunamitess. And when he had called her, and she stood before him,E disse a Giezi suo servo: Chiama questa donna di Sunam. E quegli la chiamò: ed ella si presentò a lui.And he sayd to Giezi his seruant: Call this Sunamite. Who when he had called her, and she stoode before him,Dixitque ad Giezi puerum suum: Voca Sunamitidem istam. Qui cum vocasset eam, et illa stetisset coram eo, 13He said to his servant: Say to her: Behold, thou hast diligently served us in all things; what wilt thou have me to do for thee? Hast thou any business, and wilt thou, that I speak to the king, or to the general of the army? And she answered: I dwell in the midst of my own people.Ed egli disse al suo servo: Dille tu: Ecco, che tu ci hai assistiti amorevolmente in tutto; che vuoi ch'io ti faccia? Hai tu qualche negozio, per cui desideri ch'io parli al re, o al capitano delle milizie? Ed ella rispose: Io vivo in mezzo al mio popolo.he sayd to his seruant: Speake to her: Behold thou hast diligently ministred to vs in al thinges, what wilt thou that I doe for thee? hast thou any busines, and wilt thou that I speake to the king, or the general of the warrefare? Who answered: I dwel in the middes of myne owne people.dixit ad puerum suum: Loquere ad eam: Ecce, sedule in omnibus ministrasti nobis: quid vis ut faciam tibi ? numquid habes negotium, et vis ut loquar regi, sive principi militiæ ? Quæ respondit: In medio populi mei habito.

14And he said: What will she then that I do for her? And Giezi said: Do not ask, for she hath no son, and her husband is old.Ed (Eliseo) disse: Che vuol ella adunque ch'io faccia per lei? E Giezi disse: Non cercar più oltre: perocché ella è senza figliuoli, e il suo marito è vecchio.And he sayd: What wil she then that I doe for her? And Giezi sayd: Aske not: for she hath no sonne, and her husband is old.Et ait: Quid ergo vult ut faciam ei ? Dixitque Giezi: Ne quæras: filium enim non habet, et vir ejus senex est. 15Then he bid him call her. And when she was called, and stood before the door,Egli adunque gli ordinò di chiamarla, e venuta che fu, standosi ella dinanzi alla porta,He therfore cōmanded him to cal her: who when she was called, and stoode before the doore,Præcepit itaque ut vocaret eam: quæ cum vocata fuisset, et stetisset ante ostium, 16He said to her: At this time, and this same hour, if life be in company, thou shalt have a son in thy womb. But she answered: Do not, I beseech thee, my lord, thou man of God, do not lie to thy handmaid.Egli le disse: In questo tempo, e in questa stess'ora, vivendo tu, porterai nel seno un figliuolo. Ed ella rispose: Non volere di grazia, o signor mio, o uomo di Dio, ingannar la tua serva.he sayd to her: At this tyme, this self same houre, if life accompanie, thou shalt haue a sonne in thy wombe. But she answered: Doe not I besech thee my lord, man of God, doe not lie to thy handmayd.dixit ad eam: In tempore isto, et in hac eadem hora, si vita comes fuerit, habebis in utero filium. At illa respondit: Noli quæso, domine mi vir Dei, noli mentiri ancillæ tuæ. 17And the woman conceived, and brought forth a son in the time, and at the same hour that Eliseus had said.Ma la donna concepì, e partorì un figliuolo nel tempo, e nell'ora predettale da Eliseo.And the woman conceiued, and brought forth a sonne in that time, and in the self same houre, that Eliseus had sayd.Et concepit mulier, et peperit filium in tempore, et in hora eadem, qua dixerat Eliseus. 18And the child grew. And on a certain day, when he went out to his father to the reapers,E il fanciullo ingrandì; e un giorno essendo egli uscito per andar a trovar suo padre da quei, che mietevano,And the childe grewe. And vpon a certaine day, when going forth he went to his father, vnto the reapers,Crevit autem puer: et cum esset quædam dies, et egressus isset ad patrem suum, ad messores, 19He said to his father: My head acheth, my head acheth. But he said to his servant. Take him, and carry him to his mother.Diss'egli a suo padre: Mi duole il capo, il capo mi duole. Ed egli disse ad un servo: Prendilo, e portalo a sua madre.he sayd to his father: My head aketh, my head aketh. But he said to his seruant, take him, and bring him to his mother,ait patri suo: Caput meum doleo, caput meum doleo. At ille dixit puero: Tolle, et duc eum ad matrem suam.

20And when he had taken him, and brought him to his mother, she sat him on her knees, until noon, and then he died.E quegli avendolo portato, e rimesso a sua madre, se lo tenne ella sulle sue ginocchia sino a mezzodì, ed ei si morì.who when he had taken him, and brought him to his mother, she sette him vpon her knees vntil noone, and he dyed.Qui cum tulisset, et duxisset eum ad matrem suam, posuit eum illa super genua sua usque ad meridiem, et mortuus est. 21And she went up, and laid him upon the bed of the man of God, and shut the door: and going out,Ed ella sali a collocarlo sul letto dell'uom dì Dio, e chiuse la porta, e andò fuori,And she went vp, and laid him vpon the bed of the man of God, and shut the doore: and going forthAscendit autem, et collocavit eum super lectulum hominis Dei, et clausit ostium: et egressa, 22She called her husband, and said: Send with me, I beseech thee, one of thy servants, and an ass, that I may run to the man of God, and come again.E chiamò il suo marito, e gli disse: Manda di grazia con me uno de' servi, e un'asina, perocché io corro dall'uom di Dio, e torno.called her husband, and sayd: Send with me, I besech thee, one of the seruantes, and an asse, that I may runne to the man of God, and returne.vocavit virum suum, et ait: Mitte mecum, obsecro, unum de pueris, et asinam, ut excurram usque ad hominem Dei, et revertar. 23And he said to her: Why dost thou go to him? to day is neither new moon nor sabbath. She answered: I will go.E quegli le disse: Per qual ragione vai tu a trovarlo? oggi non son te calende, e non è sabato. Ed ella rispose: Io anderò.Who sayd to her: For what cause doest thou goe to him? The Calendes be not to day, nor the Sabbath. Who answered: I wil goe.Qui ait illi: Quam ob causam vadis ad eum ? hodie non sunt calendæ, neque sabbatum. Quæ respondit: Vadam. 24And she saddled an ass, and commanded her servant: Drive, and make haste, make no stay in going: And do that which I bid thee.Ed ella ammannì l'asina, e ordinò al servo: Conducimi, e fa presto; non mi trattener per istrada, e fa quello, ch'io ti comando.And she sadled the asse, and commanded her seruant: driue, and make hast, make no stay in going. And doe that which I command thee.Stravitque asinam, et præcepit puero: Mina, et propera: ne mihi moram facias in eundo: et hoc age quod præcipio tibi. 25So she went forward, and came to the man of God, to mount Carmel: and when the man of God saw her coming towards, he said to Giezi, his servant: Behold that Sunamitess.Ella adunque si partì, e andò dall'uomo di Dio sul monte Carmelo: e avendola l'uomo di Dio veduta venirgli incontro, disse a Giezi suo servo: Ecco quella donna di Sunam.She therfore went forward, and came to the man of God into mount Carmel: and when the man of God saw her ouer against him, he said to Giezi his seruant: Behold that Sunamite.Profecta est igitur, et venit ad virum Dei in montem Carmeli: cumque vidisset eam vir Dei e contra, ait ad Giezi puerum suum: Ecce Sunamitis illa.

26Go, therefore, to meet her, and say to her: Is all well with thee, and with thy husband, and with thy son? And she answered: Well.Va adunque ad incontrarla, e dille: State voi bene tu, e tuo marito, e tuo figliuolo? Ed ella rispose: Bene.Goe therfore to meete her, and say to her: Is al wel about thee, and about thy husband, and about thy sonne? Who answered: Wel.Vade ergo in occursum ejus, et dic ei: Recte ne agitur circa te, et circa virum tuum, et circa filium tuum ? Quæ respondit: Recte. 27And when she came to the man of God, to the mount, she caught hold on his feet: and Giezi came to remove her. And the man of God said: Let her alone for her soul is in anguish, and the Lord hath hid it from me, and hath not told me.Ma allorché fu arrivata presso all'uom di Dio sul monte, se gli gettò a' piedi; e Giezi si appressò, per farnela discostare. Ma l'uomo di Dio gli disse: Lasciala fare; perocché l'anima di lei è in amarezza, e il Signore mi ha nascosa tal cosa, e non me l'ha rivelata.And when she was come to the man of God into the mount, she caught his feet: and Giezi came to remoue her. And the man of God said: Let her alone, for her soule is in anguish, and our Lord hath hid it from me, and hath not told me.Cumque venisset ad virum Dei in montem, apprehendit pedes ejus: et accessit Giezi ut amoveret eam. Et ait homo Dei: Dimitte illam: anima enim ejus in amaritudine est, et Dominus celavit a me, et non indicavit mihi. 28And she said to him: Did I ask a son of my lord? did I not say to thee: Do not deceive me?Or ella disse: Forse che io do mandai al signor mio un figliuolo? Non ti Diss'io: Non mi burlare?Who said to him: Did I aske a sonne of my Lord? Did I not say to thee: Mocke me not?Quæ dixit illi: Numquid petivi filium a domino meo ? numquid non dixi tibi: Ne illudas me ? 29Then he said to Giezi: Gird up thy loins, and take my staff in thy hand, and go. If any man meet thee, salute him not: and if any man salute thee, answer him not: and lay my staff upon the face of the child.Ed egli disse a Giezi: Cingi i tuoi fianchi, e prendi in mano il mio bastone, e va: se ti imbatti in alcun uomo, noi salutare; e se alcun ti saluta, non gli rispondere: e tu porrai il mio bastone sulla faccia del fanciullo.And he said to Giezi: Girde thy loynes, and take my staffe in thy hand, & goe. If a man meete thee, salute him not: and if any man salute thee, answer him not: and thou shalt put my staffe vpon the face of the childe.Et ille ait ad Giezi: Accinge lumbos tuos, et tolle baculum meum in manu tua, et vade. Si occurrerit tibi homo, non salutes eum: et si salutaverit te quispiam, non respondeas illi: et pones baculum meum super faciem pueri.

30But the mother of the child said: As the Lord liveth, and as thy soul liveth, I will not leave thee. He arose, therefore, and followed her.Ma la madre del fanciullo disse: Viva il Signore, e viva l'anima tua; io non partirò da te. Egli adunque si mosse, e le andò appresso.Moreouer the mother of the childe said: Our Lord liueth, and thy soul liueth, I wil not leaue thee. He arose therfore, and folowed her.Porro mater pueri ait: Vivit Dominus, et vivit anima tua, non dimittam te. Surrexit ergo, et secutus est eam. 31But Giezi was gone before them, and laid the staff upon the face of the child, and there was no voice nor sense: and he returned to meet him, and told him, saying: The child is not risen.Or Giezi era andato innanzi a loro, e avea posto il bastone sopra la faccia del fanciullo; ma egli non avea fiato, né senso. E tornò indietro ad incontrar Eliseo, e gli diede la nuova: Il fanciullo non è risuscitato.But Giezi was gone before them, and had put the staffe vpon the face of the childe, & there was not voice, nor sense: and he returned to meete him, and told him, saying: The childe is not risen.Giezi autem præcesserat ante eos, et posuerat baculum super faciem pueri, et non erat vox, neque sensus: reversusque est in occursum ejus, et nuntiavit ei, dicens: Non surrexit puer. 32Eliseus, therefore, went into the house, and behold the child lay dead on his bed:Eliseo adunque entrò in casa, e vide il fanciullo morto giacente sul suo letto:Eliseus therfore went into the house, and behold the childe lay dead on his bed:Ingressus est ergo Eliseus domum, et ecce puer mortuus jacebat in lectulo ejus: 33And going in, he shut the door upon him, and upon the child, and prayed to the Lord.Ed entrò, e si chiuse dentro col fanciullo, e fece orazione al Signore.and going in he shut the doore vpon him, & vpon the childe & prayed to our Lord.ingressusque clausit ostium super se et super puerum, et oravit ad Dominum. 34And he went up, and lay upon the child: and put his mouth upon his mouth, and his eyes upon his eyes, and his hands upon his hands: and he bowed himself upon him, and the child’s flesh grew warm.E salì (sul letto), e si distese sopra il fanciullo, e pose la sua bocca sopra la bocca di lui, e i suoi occhi sopra gli occhi di lui, e le sue mani sopra le mani di lui; e s'i incurvò sopra di lui, e le carni del fanciullo si riscaldarono.And he went vp, and lay vpon the childe: and he put his mouth vpon his mouth, & his eies vpon his eies & his handes vpon his handes: and he bowed him self ouer him, and the childes flesh was warmedEt ascendit, et incubuit super puerum: posuitque os suum super os ejus, et oculos suos super oculos ejus, et manus suas super manus ejus: et incurvavit se super eum, et calefacta est caro pueri.

35Then he returned and walked in the house, once to and fro: and he went up, and lay upon him: and the child gaped seven times, and opened his eyes.Ed egli scese; e fece due giri per la stanza, e salì di nuovo, e si distese sopra il fanciullo, e questi sbadigliò sette volte, e aperse gli occhi.But he returning, walked vp and downe in the house, once hither & thither: & he went vp and lay vpon him: and the childe gaped seuen tymes, and opened his eies.At ille reversus, deambulavit in domo, semel huc atque illuc: et ascendit, et incubuit super eum: et oscitavit puer septies, aperuitque oculos. 36And he called Giezi, and said to him: Call this Sunamitess. And she being called, went in to him: and he said: Take up thy son.Ed egli chiamò Giezi, e gli disse: Chiama la donna di Sunam; ed ella venne, e si presentò a lui; ed ei le disse: Prendi il tuo figliuolo.And he called Gierzi, & said to him: Call this Sunamite. Who being called, went in vnto him: Who said: Take thy sonne.At ille vocavit Giezi, et dixit ei: Voca Sunamitidem hanc. Quæ vocata, ingressa est ad eum. Qui ait: Tolle filium tuum. 37She came and fell at his feet, and worshipped upon the ground: and took up her son, and went out.Andò ella a gettarsi a' piedi di lui, inchinandosi fino a terra; e preso il suo figliuolo, se n'andò.She came, and fel at his feete, and adored vpon the ground: and tooke her sonne, and went out,Venit illa, et corruit ad pedes ejus, et adoravit super terram: tulitque filium suum, et egressa est. 38And Eliseus returned to Galgal, and there was a famine in the land, and the sons of the prophets dwelt before him: And he said to one of his servants: Set on the great pot, and boil pottage for the sons of the prophets.Ed Eliseo se ne tornò a Gàlgala. Or il paese era alla fame, e abitavano con lui i figliuoli de' profeti. Ed egli disse a un de' suoi servidori: Prendi una pignatta grande, e cuoci la pietanza pe' figliuoli de' profeti.and Eliseus returned into Galgal And there was a famine in the land, and the children of the prophetes dwelt before him; and he sayd to one of his seruantes: Sette on a greate potte, and seeth broth for the children of the prophetes.Et Eliseus reversus est in Galgala. Erat autem fames in terra, et filii prophetarum habitabant coram eo. Dixitque uni de pueris suis: Pone ollam grandem, et coque pulmentum filiis prophetarum. 39And one went out into the field to gather wild herbs: and he found something like a wild vine, and gathered of it wild gourds of the field, and filled his mantle, and coming back, he shred them into the pot of pottage; for he knew not what it was.E uno di essi andò al campo per cogliere delle erbe salvatiche, e trovò una specie di vite salvatica, e da essa colse dei colochinti salvatici, e ne empì il suo mantello, e tornato che fu, li tagliò in pezzi, e li mise nella pignatta della pietanza, perocché non sapeva quello, ch'ei fossero.And one went out into the field to gather wilde herbes: and he found as it were a wilde vine, and gathered of it the colocynthides of the field, and filled his mantel, and returning cut it into the potte of broth, for he knew not what it was.Et egressus est unus in agrum ut colligeret herbas agrestes: invenitque quasi vitem silvestrem, et collegit ex ea colocynthidas agri, et implevit pallium suum, et reversus concidit in ollam pulmenti: nesciebat enim quid esset.

40And they poured it out for their companions to eat: and when they had tasted of the pottage, they cried out, saying: Death is in the pot, O man of God. And they could not eat thereof.Ne versarono adunque ai compagni, perchè mangiassero: e avendo quelli gustata tal roba cotta, gridarono, e dissero: Uomo di Dio, la morte nella pignatta: e non poterono mangiarne.They therfore powred it to their felowes, to eate: and when they had tasted of the broth, they cried, saying: Death is in the potte, man of God. And they could not eate.Infuderunt ergo sociis ut comederent: cumque gustassent de coctione, clamaverunt, dicentes: Mors in olla, vir Dei. Et non potuerunt comedere. 41But he said: Bring some meal. And when they had brought it, he cast it into the pot, and said: Pour out for the people, that they may eat. And there was now no bitterness in the pot.Ed egli: Portatemi, disse, della farina, e quando la ebbero portata, la gettò nella pignatta, e disse: Versatene alla gente, che mangino. E non rimase nulla di amaro nella pignatta.But he sayd: Bring meale, and when they had brought it, he cast it into the potte, and said: powere in for the multitude, that they may eate. And there was no more anie bitternesse in the potte.At ille: Afferte, inquit, farinam. Cumque tulissent, misit in ollam, et ait: Infunde turbæ, ut comedant. Et non fuit amplius quidquam amaritudinis in olla. 42And a certain man came from Baalsalisa, bringing to the man of God, bread of the firstfruits, twenty loaves of barley, and new corn in his scrip. And he said: Give to the people, that they may eat.Giunse poi un uomo da Baalsalisa, il quale portava all'uomo di Dio dei pani delle primizie, venti pani d'orzo, e del grano nuovo nella sua bisaccia: ed ei gli disse: Danne a tutta la gente, affinchè ne mangi.And a certaine man came from Baa•sah•a bringing to the man of God loaues of the first fruites, twentie barley loaues, and new wheate in his scrippe. But he said: Geue to the people, that they may eate.Vir autem quidam venit de Baalsalisa deferens viro Dei panes primitiarum, viginti panes hordeaceos, et frumentum novum in pera sua. At ille dixit: Da populo, ut comedat. 43And his servant answered him: How much is this, that I should set it before a hundred men? He said again: Give to the people, that they may eat: for thus saith the Lord: They shall eat, and there shall be left.E il suo servo gli rispose: Che è tutto questo per porlo davanti a cento persone? Egli disse di nuovo: Danne alla gente, che mangi; perocché così dice il Signore: Mangeranno, e ne avanzerà.And his seruant answered him: How much is this, that I should sette it before an hundred men? Agayne he said: Geue to the people, that they may eate: for thus saith our Lord: They shal eate, and there shal be leaft.Responditque ei minister ejus: Quantum est hoc, ut apponam centum viris ? Rursum ille ait: Da populo, ut comedat: hæc enim dicit Dominus: Comedent, et supererit.

44So he set it before them: and they ate, and there was left, according to the word of the Lord.Quegli pertanto li pose davanti alla gente, e mangiarono, e ne avanzò secondo la parola del Signore.He therfore sette it before them: who did eate, and there was leaft according to the word of our Lord.Posuit itaque coram eis: qui comederunt, et superfuit juxta verbum Domini.
