For the poor ye have always with you; but me ye have not always.

Forª the¹ poorª alwaysª ye haveª° withª you;ª butª meª ye haveª° notª always.ª

Forª the¹ pooreª alwayesª yee haueª° withª you:ª butª meª ye haueª° notª alwayes.ª

In all time the poor you have with you; but me you have not at all time.

For the poor are always with you, but I am not with you always.

τοὺς πτωχοὺς γὰρ πάντοτε ἔχετε μεθ' ἑαυτῶν, ἐμὲ δὲ οὐ πάντοτε ἔχετε.

to-the-ones to-beggared therefore all-to-the-one-which-also ye-hold with of-selves, to-ME moreover not all-to-the-one-which-also ye-hold.
