I. FROM THE GOSPEL OF ST. MATTHEW.
Chap. V, 17. ni hugjaiþ; prohibitiv optativ (S., 91, (2)).—qêmjau; opt. in a final object clause (S., 93).—gataíran, to tear or break completely, destroy; usfulljan, to fulfil. Both gat. and usf. ar infinitivs of purpose (S., 114), the prefixes ga and us being intensiv. 18. usleiþiþ himins jah aírþa; two subj. nominativs with a sg. v. (S., 5, n. 1). 19. saei; rel. prn. (Gr., 157; S., 60).—þizô; dem. prn., not art. (S., 63).—gataíriþ (prs. ind.) .....laisjai (prs. opt.); the first denoting a fact, the second a possibility (S., 99, c): whosoever breaks and 'should' teach.—minnista; an exceptional case of a weak adj. without the art.—þiudangardjai himinê; without the art. (in the Grk. text τῇ....τῶν).
20. managizô (n. compar. uzed as sb.) izwaraizôs garaíhteins, more of your righteousness than of [the righteousness of] the scribes.—þau (conj.), than ...þau (adv.), in any case; ni þau, in no case.—qimiþ in þiudangardjai; the dativ after qiman in and similar vs. of 'motion towards' is distinctivly Gothic (S., 55). 21. qiþan ist; stands for the Grk. aor. (S., 87, n., c) = imperf. in English.—maúrþrjais; the hort. opt. for the second pers. fut. in Grk.—waírþiþ; the prs. for the Grk. fut. (S., 86, (3)).—skula w. dat., a detter or subject to (S., 35, (2)). 22. ik; the personal prn. is uzed with a v. for the sake of emfasis (S., 2, n. 1).—ƕazuh môdags; for πᾶς ὁ w. a ptc.—brôþr seinamma; dat. after môdags: angry with (lit. 'to'; S., 36, (3)).—gaqumþai, council, from gaqiman, to cum together.—dwala (voc.); weak adj. uzed as sb.—skula in gaíaínnan; in denoting 'direction' 'in regard to'; the expression seems to be an imitation of the corresponding Grk. passage: ἔνοχος ἔσται εὶς τὴν γέενναν.
23. jabai nu baírais...gamuneis (Gr., 200, n. 1; and 196); a conditional sentence, the vs. of the protasis being in the opt., those of the apodosis in the imper. (S., 102, e).—aibr; s. 'Vocabulary'.—þeins; attributes generally follow their sb. (S., 10, n. 2).—ƕa; here indef. (Gr., 162, n. 2; S., 78, n. 2). 24. Here the apodosis begins.—þô; the art. is uzed, because the sacrifice (aibr) is again mentiond (as giba) (S., 67).—þeina; for its strong inflection, s. Gr. 122, n. 1.—brôþr þeinamma; dat. after gasibjôn (S., 43). 25. andastauin þeinamma; dat. after waíla hugjands (S., 41).—ibai, lest, lit. perhaps, which sense is also exprest by the opt. atgibai.—stauin; from staua, m. (Gr., 108; not f.; Gr., 97).—in karkara gal.; gal. in w. acc., more frequently w. dat.; see qimiþ in, abuv; jah galagjaza, and [then] thou wilt be cast. 26. usgaggis..usgibis; the first prs. expresses the first, the second the past future.—minnistan; this word does not exactly answer ἔσχατον (which Wulfila in other places renders by aftuma, aftumists, spêdiza, spêdists, spêdumists). It is not impossibl, however, that kintus ment not one particular coin (or mezure), but any coin (or mezure) of litl value.
27. For the tenses and opt. mood, see 21, abuv. 28. saei saíƕiþ; ind. in a rel. clause for a Grk. ptc. (S., 99).—du lustôn; inf. of purpose after du (S., 144).—izôs; gen. after lustôn (S., 26).—gahôrinôda (For the Grk. aor.; S., 87, (3)) izai; instrumental dat. of association (S., 52, (1), c). 29. marzjai; opt. necessitated by the sense, not by the conj. jabai (S., 102).—usstigg ita jah waírp; the order of words is Grk.; in Engl. we repeat the object 'it' after the second v. (waírp).—gadriusai in gaíaínnan; gadr. in w. acc.; onse (Lu. 8, 7) it takes the dat.; comp. qiman in, chap. V, 20, abuv. 30. taíhswô þeina handus; comp. the sequence of words (without the art.) with the similar expression (with the art.) in 29, abuv.—þô, this, that; but αὐτήν in Grk.—batizô ist þus ei, etc.; the dependent clause after batizô ist is sumtimes an acc. w. inf. (S., 113); þus is dat. of advantage (S., 36, (4)).—fraqistnai....gadriusai; both optativs imply possibility (S., 103). 31. -uh þan; both particls (= þan alone) ar here continuativ: but farther, also.—saei aflêtai qên; opt. in a rel. clause which does not contain a statement of the speaker, but of sum one else (cp. verse 32, below); qên is less definit here than in the following verse, where seina is emfatic, and qên seina means as much as 'his legitimate wife'.—gibai; hort. opt. (S., 91, (2)).—afstassais bôkôs, a writing (lit. letters; cp. the Latin 'littera': 'litterae') of divorcement (lit. 'standing off'; cp. the G. 'abstand' in the sense of 'desistence'). 32. saei aflêtiþ.....taujiþ; the vs. ar in the ind. mood, because they contain the speaker's statements (as opposed to the preceding ones).—izê; for izei (Gr., 157, n. 3). 33. ufarswarais...usgibais; hort. opt. (S., 91, (2)).—fraujin; without the articl, when signifying God (S., 68, n. 2.

'the more', i. e. what is more.—þaim; dat. as abl. (S., 54, 3), after the compar. managizô (= þau w. nom.; cp. the Grk. gen. and the Lt. abl. in such cases).—ubilin; dat. of the n. sg. ubilô uzed as sb. 38. und, for, in return for, w. dat.; in other senses, and more frequently, w. acc. 39. andstandan; inf., as in verse 34.—allis; adverbial gen., from the adj. alls, at all, without equivalent in the Grk. text. Wulfila probably inserted it according to verse 34, where the Grk. text shows ὅλως.—þamma unsêljin; weak adj. n. uzed as sb.; see ubilin in 37, abuv.—ƕas; here indef., as in 23, abuv.—stautai; opt., as in 29, abuv; likewise the imper. wandei in the apodosis.—jah, also. 40. jah, and.—þamma wiljandin; a participial construction, as in Grk.

'rest', place of resting, a stage or station, also the distance between two stages. 42. þamma wiljandin; dat. as abl. after uswandjais (S., 54, (1), where us should be inserted after af).—leiƕan (complementary inf.; S., 109) sis, to borrow; leiƕan, to lend. 43. frijôs...fiais fiand.....frijôþ fijands; these words and several others ar found both with and without j (Gr., 10, n. 4); fiand (fijand), acc. of fiands (fijands), enemy, lit. hating, prsp. of fi(j)an, to hate (Gr., 115). 44. þiuþjaiþ þans wrikandans; bless ye (= treat wel; for the dat. after þiuþjan, s. S., 45, page 246, below).—bi, concerning, for.—usþriutandans; acc. of the prs. ptc. (Gr., 133) of usþriutan, the us- being intensiv; -þriutan = '-trude' in 'obtrude'. 45. ei waírþaiþ sunjus; ei, that, in order that; waírþaiþ, prs. opt. in a final clause (S., 96, a).—in himinam; adv. frase uzed substantivly after the art.

Chap. VI. 1. taujan; complimentary inf. after atsaíƕiþ (2nd pers. pl. imper.).—du saíƕan im prop. a gerundiv construction, to be seen by them, lit. 'for them to see'. The activ inf. in Gothic often has a passiv force (S., 106, n. 3, end).—aiþþau, or else, otherwise. 2. þan, when.—taujais; opt. in a temporal clause (S., 100).—haúrnjais; hort. opt.

(Cp. O. Luecke, 'Absolute Participia im Gotischen, etc.'; and E. Bernhardt, 'Gotische Grammatik', p. 116). Sum Latin manuscripts hav 'te facientem'. But þuk taujandan probably depends on witi: Let not thy left hand know thee doing alms, what thy right hand doeth (= when thou doest alms, let not thy left hand know what thy right hand doeth.) 4. sijai; prs. opt. in a final clause (S., 96, a).—saíƕiþ; ind. in a rel. clause expressing a fact (S., 99).—usgibiþ; prs. ind. for the Grk. fut.

'Vocabulary'.—sai (Gr., 204, n. 2).—ik; the pers. prn. might here be omitted, as it does not seem to be emfasized (S., 59). Probably for this reason sum MSS. do not hav it.—saei; rel. prn. (Gr., 157).—gamanweiþ; the prs. for the Grk. future (S., 86, (3)).—þeinana; after its sbs., because it is not emfatic (S., 10, n. 2). 3. wôpjandins; gen. sg. of wôpjanda, weak prs. ptc.
