Vangelo secondo Matteo - Matthew 10

GREEK BIBLE	CATHOLIC PUBLIC DOMAIN
1 Και προσκαλεσας τους δωδεκα μαθητας αυτου, εδωκεν εις αυτους εξουσιαν κατα πνευματων ακαθαρτων, ωστε να εκβαλλωσιν αυτα και να θεραπευωσι πασαν νοσον και πασαν ασθενειαν.	1 And having called together his twelve disciples, he gave them authority over unclean spirits, to cast them out and to cure every sickness and every infirmity.
2 Τα δε ονοματα των δωδεκα αποστολων ειναι ταυτα? πρωτος Σιμων ο λεγομενος Πετρος και Ανδρεας ο αδελφος αυτου, Ιακωβος ο του Ζεβεδαιου και Ιωαννης ο αδελφος αυτου,	2 Now the names of the twelve Apostles are these: the First, Simon, who is called Peter, and Andrew his brother,
3 Φιλιππος και Βαρθολομαιος, Θωμας και Ματθαιος ο τελωνης, Ιακωβος ο του Αλφαιου και Λεββαιος ο επονομασθεις Θαδδαιος,	3 James of Zebedee, and John his brother, Philip and Bartholomew, Thomas and Matthew the tax collector, and James of Alphaeus, and Thaddaeus,
4 Σιμων ο Κανανιτης και ο Ιουδας ο Ισκαριωτης, οστις και παρεδωκεν αυτον.	4 Simon the Canaanite, and Judas Iscariot, who also betrayed him.
5 Τουτους τους δωδεκα απεστειλεν ο Ιησους και παρηγγειλεν εις αυτους, λεγων? Εις οδον εθνων μη υπαγητε, και εις πολιν Σαμαρειτων μη εισελθητε?	5 Jesus sent these twelve, instructing them, saying: “Do not travel by the way of the Gentiles, and do not enter into the city of the Samaritans,
6 υπαγετε δε μαλλον προς τα προβατα τα απολωλοτα του οικου Ισραηλ.	6 but instead go to the sheep who have fallen away from the house of Israel.
7 Και υπαγοντες κηρυττετε, λεγοντες οτι επλησιασεν η βασιλεια των ουρανων.	7 And going forth, preach, saying: ‘For the kingdom of heaven has drawn near.’
8 Ασθενουντας θεραπευετε, λεπρους καθαριζετε, νεκρους εγειρετε, δαιμονια εκβαλλετε? δωρεαν ελαβετε, δωρεαν δοτε.	8 Cure the infirm, raise the dead, cleanse lepers, cast out demons. You have received freely, so give freely.
9 Μη εχετε χρυσον μηδε αργυρον μηδε χαλκον εις τας ζωνας σας,	9 Do not choose to possess gold, nor silver, nor money in your belts,
10 μη σακκιον δια την οδον μηδε δυο χιτωνας μηδε υποδηματα μηδε ραβδον? διοτι ο εργατης ειναι αξιος της τροφης αυτου.	10 nor provisions for the journey, nor two tunics, nor shoes, nor a staff. For the laborer deserves his portion.
11 Εις οποιαν δε πολιν η κωμην εισελθητε, εξετασατε τις ειναι αξιος εν αυτη, και εκει μεινατε εωσου εξελθητε.	11 Now, into whatever city or town you will enter, inquire as to who is worthy within it. And stay there until you depart.
12 Εισερχομενοι δε εις την οικιαν χαιρετησατε αυτην.	12 Then, when you enter into the house, greet it, saying, ‘Peace to this house.’
13 Και εαν μεν η οικια ηναι αξια, ας ελθη η ειρηνη σας επ' αυτην? αλλ' εαν δεν ηναι αξια, η ειρηνη σας ας επιστρεψη εις εσας.	13 And if, indeed, that house is worthy, your peace will rest upon it. But if it is not worthy, your peace will return to you.
14 Και οστις δεν σας δεχθη μηδε ακουση τους λογους σας, εξερχομενοι της οικιας η της πολεως εκεινης εκτιναξατε τον κονιορτον των ποδων σας.	14 And whoever has neither received you, nor listened to your words, departing from that house or city, shake off the dust from your feet.
15 Αληθως σας λεγω, Ελαφροτερα θελει εισθαι η τιμωρια εν ημερα κρισεως εις την γην των Σοδομων και Γομορρων παρα εις την πολιν εκεινην.	15 Amen I say to you, it will be more tolerable for the land of Sodom and Gomorrah in the day of judgment, than for that city.
16 Ιδου, εγω σας αποστελλω ως προβατα εν μεσω λυκων? γινεσθε λοιπον φρονιμοι ως οι οφεις και απλοι ως αι περιστεραι.	16 Behold, I am sending you like sheep in the midst of wolves. Therefore, be as prudent as serpents and as simple as doves.
17 Προσεχετε δε απο των ανθρωπων? διοτι θελουσι σας παραδωσει εις συνεδρια και εν ταις συναγωγαις αυτων θελουσι σας μαστιγωσει?	17 But beware of men. For they will hand you over to councils, and they will scourge you in their synagogues.
18 και ετι ενωπιον ηγεμονων και βασιλεων θελετε φερθη ενεκεν εμου προς μαρτυριαν εις αυτους και εις τα εθνη.	18 And you shall be led before both rulers and kings for my sake, as a testimony to them and to the Gentiles.
19 Οταν δε σας παραδιδωσι, μη μεριμνησητε πως η τι θελετε λαλησει? διοτι θελει σας δοθη εν εκεινη τη ωρα τι πρεπει να λαλησητε.	19 But when they hand you over, do not choose to think about how or what to speak. For what to speak shall be given to you in that hour.
20 Επειδη σεις δεν εισθε οι λαλουντες, αλλα το Πνευμα του Πατρος σας, το οποιον λαλει εν υμιν.	20 For it is not you who will be speaking, but the Spirit of your Father, who will speak in you.
21 Θελει δε παραδωσει αδελφος αδελφον εις θανατον και πατηρ τεκνον, και θελουσιν επαναστη τεκνα κατα γονεων και θελουσι θανατωσει αυτους?	21 And brother will hand over brother to death, and father will hand over son. And children will rise up against parents and bring about their deaths.
22 και θελετε εισθαι μισουμενοι υπο παντων δια το ονομα μου? ο δε υπομεινας εως τελους, ουτος θελει σωθη.	22 And you will be hated by all for the sake of my name. But whoever will have persevered, even to the end, the same shall be saved.
23 Οταν δε σας διωκωσιν εν τη πολει ταυτη, φευγετε εις την αλλην? διοτι αληθως σας λεγω, δεν θελετε τελειωσει τας πολεις του Ισραηλ, εωσου ελθη ο Υιος του ανθρωπου.	23 Now when they persecute you in one city, flee into another. Amen I say to you, you will not have exhausted all the cities of Israel, before the Son of man returns.
24 Δεν ειναι μαθητης ανωτερος του διδασκαλου ουδε δουλος ανωτερος του κυριου αυτου.	24 The disciple is not above the teacher, nor is the servant above his master.
25 Αρκετον ειναι εις τον μαθητην να γεινη ως ο διδασκαλος αυτου, και ο δουλος ως ο κυριος αυτου. Εαν τον οικοδεσποτην ωνομασαν Βεελζεβουλ, ποσω μαλλον τους οικιακους αυτου;	25 It is sufficient for the disciple that he be like his teacher, and the servant, like his master. If they have called the Father of the family, ‘Beelzebub,’ how much more those of his household?
26 Μη φοβηθητε λοιπον αυτους? διοτι δεν ειναι ουδεν κεκαλυμμενον, το οποιον δεν θελει ανακαλυφθη, και κρυπτον, το οποιον δεν θελει γνωσθη.	26 Therefore, do not fear them. For nothing is covered that shall not be revealed, nor hidden that shall not be known.
27 Ο, τι σας λεγω εν τω σκοτει, ειπατε εν τω φωτι, και ο, τι ακουετε εις το ωτιον, κηρυξατε επι των δωματων.	27 What I tell you in darkness, speak in the light. And what you hear whispered in the ear, preach above the rooftops.
28 Και μη φοβηθητε απο των αποκτεινοντων το σωμα, την δε ψυχην μη δυναμενων να αποκτεινωσι? φοβηθητε δε μαλλον τον δυναμενον και ψυχην και σωμα να απολεση εν τη γεεννη.	28 And do not be afraid of those who kill the body, but are not able to kill the soul. But instead fear him who is able to destroy both soul and body in Hell.
29 Δυο στρουθια δεν πωλουνται δι' εν ασσαριον; και εν εξ αυτων δεν θελει πεσει επι την γην ανευ του θεληματος του Πατρος σας.	29 Are not two sparrows sold for one small coin? And yet not one of them will fall to the ground without your Father.
30 Υμων δε και αι τριχες της κεφαλης ειναι πασαι ηριθμημεναι.	30 For even the hairs of your head have all been numbered.
31 Μη φοβηθητε λοιπον? πολλων στρουθιων διαφερετε σεις.	31 Therefore, do not be afraid. You are worth more than many sparrows.
32 Πας λοιπον οστις με ομολογηση εμπροσθεν των ανθρωπων, θελω ομολογησει και εγω αυτον εμπροσθεν του Πατρος μου του εν ουρανοις.	32 Therefore, everyone who acknowledges me before men, I also will acknowledge before my Father, who is in heaven.
33 Οστις δε με αρνηθη εμπροσθεν των ανθρωπων, θελω αρνηθη αυτον και εγω εμπροσθεν του Πατρος μου του εν ουρανοις.	33 But whoever will have denied me before men, I also will deny before my Father, who is in heaven.
34 Μη νομισητε οτι ηλθον να βαλω ειρηνην επι την γην? δεν ηλθον να βαλω ειρηνην, αλλα μαχαιραν.	34 Do not think that I came to send peace upon the earth. I came, not to send peace, but the sword.
35 Διοτι ηλθον να διαχωρισω ανθρωπον κατα του πατρος αυτου και θυγατερα κατα της μητρος αυτης και νυμφην κατα της πενθερας αυτης?	35 For I came to divide a man against his father, and a daughter against her mother, and a daughter-in-law against her mother-in-law.
36 και εχθροι του ανθρωπου θελουσιν εισθαι οι οικιακοι αυτου.	36 And the enemies of a man will be those of his own household.
37 Οστις αγαπα πατερα η μητερα υπερ εμε, δεν ειναι αξιος εμου? και οστις αγαπα υιον η θυγατερα υπερ εμε, δεν ειναι αξιος εμου?	37 Whoever loves father or mother more than me is not worthy of me. And whoever loves son or daughter above me is not worthy of me.
38 και οστις δεν λαμβανει τον σταυρον αυτου και ακολουθει οπισω μου, δεν ειναι αξιος εμου.	38 And whoever does not take up his cross, and follow me is not worthy of me.
39 Οστις ευρη την ζωην αυτου θελει απολεσει αυτην, και οστις απολεση την ζωην αυτου δι' εμε θελει ευρει αυτην.	39 Whoever finds his life, will lose it. And whoever will have lost his life because of me, shall find it.
40 Οστις δεχεται εσας εμε δεχεται, και οστις δεχεται εμε δεχεται τον αποστειλαντα με.	40 Whoever receives you, receives me. And whoever receives me, receives him who sent me.
41 Ο δεχομενος προφητην εις ονομα προφητου μισθον προφητου θελει λαβει, και ο δεχομενος δικαιον εις ονομα δικαιου, μισθον δικαιου θελει λαβει.	41 Whoever receives a prophet, in the name of a prophet, shall receive the reward of a prophet. And whoever receives the just in the name of the just shall receive the reward of the just.
42 Και οστις ποτιση ενα των μικρων τουτων ποτηριον μονον ψυχρου υδατος εις ονομα μαθητου, αληθως σας λεγω, δεν θελει χασει τον μισθον αυτου.	42 And whoever shall give, even to one of the least of these, a cup of cold water to drink, solely in the name of a disciple: Amen I say to you, he shall not lose his reward.”
