Mark 2

NEW JERUSALEM	GREEK BIBLE
1 When he returned to Capernaum, some time later word went round that he was in the house;	1 Και μεθ' ημερας παλιν εισηλθεν εις Καπερναουμ και ηκουσθη οτι ειναι εις οικον.
2 and so many people collected that there was no room left, even in front of the door. He was preachingthe word to them	2 Και ευθυς συνηχθησαν πολλοι, ωστε δεν εχωρουν πλεον αυτους ουδε τα προθυρα? και εκηρυττεν εις αυτους τον λογον.
3 when some people came bringing him a paralytic carried by four men,	3 Και ερχονται προς αυτον φεροντες παραλυτικον, βασταζομενον υπο τεσσαρων?
4 but as they could not get the man to him through the crowd, they stripped the roof over the place whereJesus was; and when they had made an opening, they lowered the stretcher on which the paralytic lay.	4 και μη δυναμενοι να πλησιασωσιν εις αυτον εξ αιτιας του οχλου, εχαλασαν την στεγην οπου ητο, και διατρυπησαντες καταβιβαζουσι τον κραββατον, εφ' ου κατεκειτο ο παραλυτικος.
5 Seeing their faith, Jesus said to the paralytic, 'My child, your sins are forgiven.'	5 Ιδων δε ο Ιησους την πιστιν αυτων, λεγει προς τον παραλυτικον? Τεκνον, συγκεχωρημεναι ειναι εις σε αι αμαρτιαι σου.
6 Now some scribes were sitting there, and they thought to themselves,	6 Ησαν δε τινες των γραμματεων εκει καθημενοι και διαλογιζομενοι εν ταις καρδιαις αυτων?
7 'How can this man talk like that? He is being blasphemous. Who but God can forgive sins?'	7 Δια τι ουτος λαλει τοιαυτας βλασφημιας; τις δυναται να συγχωρη αμαρτιας ειμη εις, ο Θεος;
8 And at once, Jesus, inwardly aware that this is what they were thinking, said to them, 'Why do you havethese thoughts in your hearts?	8 Και ευθυς νοησας ο Ιησους δια του πνευματος αυτου οτι ουτω διαλογιζονται καθ' εαυτους, ειπε προς αυτους? Δια τι διαλογιζεσθε ταυτα εν ταις καρδιαις σας;
9 Which of these is easier: to say to the paralytic, "Your sins are forgiven" or to say, "Get up, pick up your stretcher and walk"?	9 τι ειναι ευκολωτερον, να ειπω προς τον παραλυτικον, Συγκεχωρημεναι ειναι αι αμαρτιαι σου, η να ειπω, Σηκωθητι και επαρε τον κραββατον σου και περιπατει;
10 But to prove to you that the Son of man has authority to forgive sins on earth' --	10 αλλα δια να γνωρισητε οτι εξουσιαν εχει ο Υιος του ανθρωπου επι της γης να συγχωρη αμαρτιας λεγει προς τον παραλυτικον?
11 he said to the paralytic-'I order you: get up, pick up your stretcher, and go off home.'	11 Προς σε λεγω, Σηκωθητι και επαρε τον κραββατον σου και υπαγε εις τον οικον σου.
12 And the man got up, and at once picked up his stretcher and walked out in front of everyone, so thatthey were al astonished and praised God saying, 'We have never seen anything like this.'	12 Και ηγερθη ευθυς και σηκωσας τον κραββατον, εξηλθεν ενωπιον παντων, ωστε εξεπληττοντο παντες και εδοξαζον τον Θεον, λεγοντες οτι ουδεποτε ειδομεν τοιαυτα.
13 He went out again to the shore of the lake; and al the people came to him, and he taught them.	13 Και εξηλθε παλιν παρα την θαλασσαν? και πας ο οχλος ηρχετο προς αυτον, και εδιδασκεν αυτους.
14 As he was walking along he saw Levi the son of Alphaeus sitting at the tax office, and he said to him,'Fol ow me.' And he got up and fol owed him.	14 Και διαβαινων ειδε Λευιν τον του Αλφαιου καθημενον εις το τελωνιον, και λεγει προς αυτον? Ακολουθει με. Και σηκωθεις ηκολουθησεν αυτον.
15 When Jesus was at dinner in his house, a number of tax collectors and sinners were also sitting attable with Jesus and his disciples; for there were many of them among his fol owers.	15 Και ενω εκαθητο εις την τραπεζαν εν τη οικια αυτου, συνεκαθηντο και πολλοι τελωναι και αμαρτωλοι μετα του Ιησου και των μαθητων αυτου? διοτι ησαν πολλοι, και ηκολουθησαν αυτον.
16 When the scribes of the Pharisee party saw him eating with sinners and tax col ectors, they said to hisdisciples, 'Why does he eat with tax collectors and sinners?'	16 Οι δε γραμματεις και Φαρισαιοι, ιδοντες αυτον τρωγοντα μετα των τελωνων και αμαρτωλων, ελεγον προς τους μαθητας αυτου? Δια τι μετα των τελωνων και αμαρτωλων τρωγει και πινει;
17 When Jesus heard this he said to them, 'It is not the healthy who need the doctor, but the sick. I cameto cal not the upright, but sinners.'	17 Και ακουσας ο Ιησους, λεγει προς αυτους? Δεν εχουσι χρειαν ιατρου οι υγιαινοντες, αλλ' οι πασχοντες? δεν ηλθον δια να καλεσω δικαιους αλλα αμαρτωλους εις μετανοιαν.
18 John's disciples and the Pharisees were keeping a fast, when some people came to him and said tohim, 'Why is it that John's disciples and the disciples of the Pharisees fast, but your disciples do not?'	18 Οι μαθηται δε του Ιωαννου και οι των Φαρισαιων ενηστευον. Και ερχονται και λεγουσι προς αυτον? Δια τι οι μαθηται του Ιωαννου και οι των Φαρισαιων νηστευουσιν, οι δε μαθηται σου δεν νηστευουσι;
19 Jesus replied, 'Surely the bridegroom's attendants cannot fast while the bridegroom is still with them?As long as they have the bridegroom with them, they cannot fast.	19 Και ειπε προς αυτους ο Ιησους? Μηπως δυνανται οι υιοι του νυμφωνος, ενοσω ο νυμφιος ειναι μετ' αυτων, να νηστευωσιν; οσον καιρον εχουσι τον νυμφιον μεθ' εαυτων, δεν δυνανται να νηστευωσι?
20 But the time wil come when the bridegroom is taken away from them, and then, on that day, they wilfast.	20 θελουσιν ομως ελθει ημεραι, οταν αφαιρεθη απ' αυτων ο νυμφιος, και τοτε θελουσι νηστευσει εν εκειναις ταις ημεραις.
21 No one sews a piece of unshrunken cloth on an old cloak; otherwise, the patch pul s away from it, thenew from the old, and the tear gets worse.	21 Και ουδεις ραπτει επιρραμμα αγναφου πανιου επι ιματιον παλαιον? ει δε μη, το αναπληρωμα αυτου το νεον αφαιρει απο του παλαιου, και γινεται σχισμα χειροτερον.
22 And nobody puts new wine into old wineskins; otherwise, the wine wil burst the skins, and the wine is lost and the skins too. No! New wine into fresh skins!'	22 Και ουδεις βαλλει οινον νεον εις ασκους παλαιους? ει δε μη, ο οινος ο νεος διασχιζει τους ασκους, και ο οινος εκχεεται και οι ασκοι φθειρονται? αλλα πρεπει οινος νεος να βαλληται εις ασκους νεους.
23 It happened that one Sabbath day he was taking a walk through the cornfields, and his disciplesbegan to make a path by plucking ears of corn.	23 Και οτε διεβαινεν εν σαββατω δια των σπαρτων, οι μαθηται αυτου, ενω ωδευον, ηρχισαν να ανασπωσι τα ασταχυα.
24 And the Pharisees said to him, 'Look, why are they doing something on the Sabbath day that isforbidden?'	24 Και οι Φαρισαιοι ελεγον προς αυτον? Ιδου, δια τι πραττουσιν εν τοις σαββασιν εκεινο, το οποιον δεν συγχωρειται;
25 And he replied, 'Have you never read what David did in his time of need when he and his fol owerswere hungry-	25 Και αυτος ελεγε προς αυτους? Ποτε δεν ανεγνωσατε τι επραξεν ο Δαβιδ, οτε ελαβε χρειαν και επεινασεν αυτος και οι μετ' αυτου;
26 how he went into the house of God when Abiathar was high priest, and ate the loaves of the offeringwhich only the priests are al owed to eat, and how he also gave some to the men with him?'	26 πως εισηλθεν εις τον οικον του Θεου επι Αβιαθαρ του αρχιερεως, και εφαγε τους αρτους της προθεσεως, τους οποιους δεν ειναι συγκεχωρημενον ειμη εις τους ιερεις να φαγωσι, και εδωκε και εις τους οντας μετ' αυτου;
27 And he said to them, 'The Sabbath was made for man, not man for the Sabbath;	27 Και ελεγε προς αυτους? το σαββατον εγεινε δια τον ανθρωπον, ουχι ο ανθρωπος δια το σαββατον?
28 so the Son of man is master even of the Sabbath.'	28 ωστε ο Υιος του ανθρωπου κυριος ειναι και του σαββατου.
