Matthew 20

DOUAI-RHEIMS	GREEK BIBLE
1 The kingdom of heaven is like to an householder, who went out early in the morning to hire labourers into his vineyard.	1 Διοτι η βασιλεια των ουρανων ειναι ομοια με ανθρωπον οικοδεσποτην, οστις εξηλθεν αμα τω πρωι δια να μισθωση εργατας δια τον αμπελωνα αυτου.
2 And having agreed with the labourers for a penny a day, he sent them into his vineyard.	2 Αφου δε συνεφωνησε μετα των εργατων προς εν δηναριον την ημεραν, απεστειλεν αυτους εις τον αμπελωνα αυτου.
3 And going about the third hour, he saw others standing in the market place idle.	3 Και εξελθων περι την τριτην ωραν, ειδεν αλλους ισταμενους εν τη αγορα αργους,
4 And he said to them: Go you also into my vineyard, and I will give you what shall be just.	4 και προς εκεινους ειπεν? Υπαγετε και σεις εις τον αμπελωνα, και ο, τι ειναι δικαιον θελω σας δωσει. Και εκεινοι υπηγον.
5 And they went their way. And again he went out about the sixth and the ninth hour, and did in like manner.	5 Παλιν εξελθων περι την εκτην και ενατην ωραν, εκαμεν ωσαυτως.
6 But about the eleventh hour he went out and found others standing, and he saith to them: Why stand you here all the day idle?	6 Περι δε την ενδεκατην ωραν εξελθων ευρεν αλλους ισταμενους αργους, και λεγει προς αυτους? Δια τι ιστασθε εδω ολην την ημεραν αργοι;
7 They say to him: Because no man hath hired us. He saith to them: Go you also into my vineyard.	7 Λεγουσι προς αυτον? Διοτι ουδεις εμισθωσεν ημας. Λεγει προς αυτους? Υπαγετε και σεις εις τον αμπελωνα, και ο, τι ειναι δικαιον θελετε λαβει.
8 And when evening was come, the lord of the vineyard saith to his steward: Call the labourers and pay them their hire, beginning from the last even to the first.	8 Αφου δε εγεινεν εσπερα, λεγει ο κυριος του αμπελωνος προς τον επιτροπον αυτου? Καλεσον τους εργατας και αποδος εις αυτους τον μισθον, αρχισας απο των εσχατων εως των πρωτων.
9 When therefore they were come, that came about the eleventh hour, they received every man a penny.	9 Και ελθοντες οι περι την ενδεκατην ωραν μισθωθεντες, ελαβον ανα εν δηναριον.
10 But when the first also came, they thought that they should receive more: and they also received every man a penny.	10 Ελθοντες δε οι πρωτοι, ενομισαν οτι θελουσι λαβει πλειοτερα, ελαβον ομως και αυτοι ανα εν δηναριον.
11 And receiving it they murmured against the master of the house,	11 Και λαβοντες εγογγυζον κατα του οικοδεσποτου,
12 Saying: These last have worked but one hour, and thou hast made them equal to us, that have borne the burden of the day and the heats.	12 λεγοντες οτι, Ουτοι οι εσχατοι μιαν ωραν εκαμον, και εκαμες αυτους ισους με ημας, οιτινες εβαστασαμεν το βαρος της ημερας και τον καυσωνα.
13 But he answering said to one of them: Friend, I do thee no wrong: didst thou not agree with me for a penny?	13 Ο δε αποκριθεις ειπε προς ενα εξ αυτων? Φιλε, δεν σε αδικω? δεν συνεφωνησας εν δηναριον μετ' εμου;
14 Take what is thine, and go thy way: I will also give to this last even as to thee.	14 λαβε το σον και υπαγε? θελω δε να δωσω εις τουτον τον εσχατον ως και εις σε.
15 Or, is it not lawful for me to do what I will? is thy eye evil, because I am good?	15 Η δεν εχω την εξουσιαν να καμω ο, τι θελω εις τα εμα; η ο οφθαλμος σου ειναι πονηρος διοτι εγω ειμαι αγαθος;
16 So shall the last be first, and the first last. For many are called, but few chosen.	16 Ουτω θελουσιν εισθαι οι εσχατοι πρωτοι και οι πρωτοι εσχατοι? διοτι πολλοι ειναι οι κεκλημενοι, ολιγοι δε οι εκλεκτοι.
17 And Jesus going up to Jerusalem, took the twelve disciples apart, and said to them:	17 Και αναβαινων ο Ιησους εις Ιεροσολυμα, παρελαβε τους δωδεκα μαθητας κατ' ιδιαν εν τη οδω και ειπε προς αυτους.
18 Behold we go up to Jerusalem, and the Son of man shall be betrayed to the chief priests and the scribes, and they shall condemn him to death.	18 Ιδου, αναβαινομεν εις Ιεροσολυμα, και ο Υιος του ανθρωπου θελει παραδοθη εις τους αρχιερεις και γραμματεις και θελουσι καταδικασει αυτον εις θανατον,
19 And shall deliver him to the Gentiles to be mocked, and scourged, and crucified, and the third day he shall rise again.	19 και θελουσι παραδωσει αυτον εις τα εθνη δια να εμπαιξωσι και μαστιγωσωσι και σταυρωσωσι, και τη τριτη ημερα θελει αναστηθη.
20 Then came to him the mother of the sons of Zebedee with her sons, adoring and asking something of him.	20 Τοτε προσηλθε προς αυτον η μητηρ των υιων του Ζεβεδαιου μετα των υιων αυτης, προσκυνουσα και ζητουσα τι παρ' αυτου.
21 Who said to her: What wilt thou? She saith to him: Say that these my two sons may sit, the one on thy right hand, and the other on thy left, in thy kingdom.	21 Ο δε ειπε προς αυτην? Τι θελεις; Λεγει προς αυτον? Ειπε να καθησωσιν ουτοι οι δυο υιοι μου εις εκ δεξιων σου και εις εξ αριστερων εν τη βασιλεια σου.
22 And Jesus answering, said: You know not what you ask. Can you drink the chalice that I shall drink? They say to him: We can.	22 Αποκριθεις δε ο Ιησους ειπε? Δεν εξευρετε τι ζητειτε. Δυνασθε να πιητε το ποτηριον, το οποιον εγω μελλω να πιω, και να βαπτισθητε το βαπτισμα, το οποιον εγω βαπτιζομαι; Λεγουσι προς αυτον? Δυναμεθα.
23 He saith to them: My chalice indeed you shall drink; but to sit on my right or left hand, is not mine to give to you, but to them for whom it is prepared by my Father.	23 Και λεγει προς αυτους? το μεν ποτηριον μου θελετε πιει; και το βαπτισμα το οποιον εγω βαπτιζομαι θελετε βαπτισθη? το να καθησητε ομως εκ δεξιων μου και εξ αριστερων μου δεν ειναι εμου να δωσω, ειμη εις οσους ειναι ητοιμασμενον υπο του Πατρος μου.
24 And the ten hearing it, were moved with indignation against the two brethren.	24 Και ακουσαντες οι δεκα ηγανακτησαν περι των δυο αδελφων.
25 But Jesus called them to him, and said: You know that the princes of the Gentiles lord it over them; and they that are the greater, exercise power upon them.	25 Ο δε Ιησους προσκαλεσας αυτους, ειπεν? Εξευρετε οτι οι αρχοντες των εθνων κατακυριευουσιν αυτα και οι μεγαλοι κατεξουσιαζουσιν αυτα.
26 It shall not be so among you: but whosoever will be the greater among you, let him be your minister:	26 Ουτως ομως δεν θελει εισθαι εν υμιν, αλλ' οστις θελει να γεινη μεγας εν υμιν, ας ηναι υπηρετης υμων,
27 And he that will be first among you, shall be your servant.	27 και οστις θελη να ηναι πρωτος εν υμιν, ας ηναι δουλος υμων?
28 Even as the Son of man is not come to be ministered unto, but to minister, and to give his life a redemption for many.	28 καθως ο Υιος του ανθρωπου δεν ηλθε δια να υπηρετηθη, αλλα δια να υπηρετηση και να δωση την ζωην αυτου λυτρον αντι πολλων.
29 And when they went out from Jericho, a great multitude followed him.	29 Και ενω εξηρχοντο απο της Ιεριχω, ηκολουθησεν αυτον οχλος πολυς.
30 And behold two blind men sitting by the way side, heard that Jesus passed by, and they cried out, saying: O Lord, thou son of David, have mercy on us.	30 Και ιδου, δυο τυφλοι καθημενοι παρα την οδον, ακουσαντες οτι ο Ιησους διαβαινει, εκραξαν λεγοντες? Ελεησον ημας, Κυριε, υιε του Δαβιδ.
31 And the multitude rebuked them that they should hold their peace. But they cried out the more, saying: O Lord, thou son of David, have mercy on us.	31 Ο δε οχλος επεπληξεν αυτους δια να σιωπησωσιν? αλλ' εκεινοι εκραζον δυνατωτερα, λεγοντες? Ελεησον ημας, Κυριε, υιε του Δαβιδ.
32 And Jesus stood, and called them, and said: What will ye that I do to you?	32 Και σταθεις ο Ιησους, εκραξεν αυτους και ειπε? Τι θελετε να σας καμω;
33 They say to him: Lord, that our eyes be opened.	33 Λεγουσι προς αυτον? Κυριε, να ανοιχθωσιν οι οφθαλμοι ημων.
34 And Jesus having compassion on them, touched their eyes. And immediately they saw, and followed him.	34 Και ο Ιησους σπλαγχνισθεις ηγγισε τους οφθαλμους αυτων? και ευθυς ανεβλεψαν αυτων οι οφθαλμοι, και ηκολουθησαν αυτον.
