Vangelo secondo Matteo - Matthew 27

GREEK BIBLE	CATHOLIC PUBLIC DOMAIN
1 Οτε δε εγεινε πρωι, συνεβουλευθησαν παντες οι αρχιερεις και οι πρεσβυτεροι του λαου κατα του Ιησου δια να θανατωσωσιν αυτον?	1 Then, when morning arrived, all the leaders of the priests and the elders of the people took counsel against Jesus, so that they might deliver him to death.
2 και δεσαντες αυτον, εφεραν και παρεδωκαν αυτον εις τον Ποντιον Πιλατον τον ηγεμονα.	2 And they led him, bound, and handed him over to Pontius Pilate, the procurator.
3 Τοτε ιδων Ιουδας ο παραδοσας αυτον οτι κατεδικασθη, μεταμεληθεις επεστρεψε τα τριακοντα αργυρια εις τους πρεσβυτερους,	3 Then Judas, who betrayed him, seeing that he had been condemned, regretting his conduct, brought back the thirty pieces of silver to the leaders of the priests and the elders,
4 λεγων? Ημαρτον παραδοσας αιμα αθωον. Οι δε ειπον? Τι προς ημας; συ οψει.	4 saying, “I have sinned in betraying just blood.” But they said to him: “What is that to us? See to it yourself.”
5 Και ριψας τα αργυρια εν τω ναω, ανεχωρησε και απελθων εκρεμασθη.	5 And throwing down the pieces of silver in the temple, he departed. And going out, he hanged himself with a snare.
6 Οι δε αρχιερεις, λαβοντες τα αργυρια, ειπον? Δεν ειναι συγκεχωρημενον να βαλωμεν αυτα εις το θησαυροφυλακιον, διοτι ειναι τιμη αιματος.	6 But the leaders of the priests, having taken up the pieces of silver, said, “It is not lawful to put them into the temple offerings, because it is the price of blood.”
7 Και συμβουλευθεντες ηγορασαν με αυτα τον αγρον του κεραμεως, δια να ενταφιαζωνται εκει οι ξενοι.	7 Then, having taken counsel, they bought the potter’s field with it, as a burying place for sojourners.
8 Δια τουτο ωνομασθη ο αγρος εκεινος Αγρος αιματος εως της σημερον.	8 For this reason, that field is called Haceldama, that is, ‘The Field of Blood,’ even to this very day.
9 Τοτε επληρωθη το ρηθεν δια Ιερεμιου του προφητου, λεγοντος? Και ελαβον τα τριακοντα αργυρια, την τιμην του εκτιμηθεντος, τον οποιον εξετιμησαν απο των υιων Ισραηλ,	9 Then what was spoken by the prophet Jeremiah was fulfilled, saying, “And they took the thirty pieces of silver, the price of the one being appraised, whom they appraised before the sons of Israel,
10 και εδωκαν αυτα εις τον αγρον του κεραμεως, καθως μοι παρηγγειλεν ο Κυριος.	10 and they gave it for the potter’s field, just as the Lord appointed to me.”
11 Ο δε Ιησους εσταθη εμπροσθεν του ηγεμονος? και ηρωτησεν αυτον ο ηγεμων, λεγων? Συ εισαι ο βασιλευς των Ιουδαιων; Ο δε Ιησους ειπε προς αυτον? Συ λεγεις.	11 Now Jesus stood before the procurator, and the procurator questioned him, saying, “You are the king of the Jews?” Jesus said to him, “You are saying so.”
12 Και ενω εκατηγορειτο υπο των αρχιερεων και των πρεσβυτερων, ουδεν απεκριθη.	12 And when he was accused by the leaders of the priests and the elders, he responded nothing.
13 Τοτε λεγει προς αυτον ο Πιλατος? Δεν ακουεις ποσα σου καταμαρτυρουσι;	13 Then Pilate said to him, “Do you not hear how much testimony they speak against you?”
14 Και δεν απεκριθη προς αυτον ουδε προς ενα λογον, ωστε ο ηγεμων εθαυμαζε πολυ.	14 And he did not respond any word to him, so that the procurator wondered greatly.
15 Κατα δε την εορτην εσυνειθιζεν ο ηγεμων να απολυη εις τον οχλον ενα δεσμιον, οντινα ηθελον.	15 Now on the solemn day, the procurator was accustomed to release to the people one prisoner, whomever they wished.
16 Και ειχον τοτε δεσμιον περιβοητον λεγομενον Βαραββαν.	16 And at that time, he had a notorious prisoner, who was called Barabbas.
17 Ενω λοιπον ησαν συνηγμενοι, ειπε προς αυτους ο Πιλατος? Τινα θελετε να σας απολυσω; τον Βαραββαν η τον Ιησουν τον λεγομενον Χριστον;	17 Therefore, having been gathered together, Pilate said to them, “Who is it that you want me to release to you: Barabbas, or Jesus, who is called Christ?”
18 Επειδη ηξευρεν οτι δια φθονον παρεδωκαν αυτον.	18 For he knew that it was out of envy they had handed him over.
19 Ενω δε εκαθητο επι του βηματος, απεστειλε προς αυτον η γυνη αυτου, λεγουσα? Απεχε του δικαιου εκεινου? διοτι πολλα επαθον σημερον κατ' οναρ δι' αυτον.	19 But as he was sitting in the place for the tribunal, his wife sent to him, saying: “It is nothing to you, and he is just. For I have experienced many things today through a vision for his sake.”
20 Οι δε αρχιερεις και οι πρεσβυτεροι επεισαν τους οχλους να ζητησωσι τον Βαραββαν, τον δε Ιησουν να απολεσωσι.	20 But the leaders of the priests and the elders persuaded the people, so that they would ask for Barabbas, and so that Jesus would perish.
21 Και αποκριθεις ο ηγεμων ειπε προς αυτους? Τινα θελετε απο των δυο να σας απολυσω; οι δε ειπον? Τον Βαραββαν.	21 Then, in response, the procurator said to them, “Which of the two do you want to be released to you?” But they said to him, “Barabbas.”
22 Λεγει προς αυτους ο Πιλατος? Τι λοιπον να καμω τον Ιησουν τον λεγομενον Χριστον; Λεγουσι προς αυτον παντες? Σταυρωθητω.	22 Pilate said to them, “Then what shall I do about Jesus, who is called Christ?” They all said, “Let him be crucified.”
23 Ο δε ηγεμων ειπε? Και τι κακον επραξεν; Οι δε περισσοτερον εκραζον, λεγοντες? Σταυρωθητω.	23 The procurator said to them, “But what evil has he done?” But they cried out all the more, saying, “Let him be crucified.”
24 Και ιδων ο Πιλατος οτι ουδεν ωφελει, αλλα μαλλον θορυβος γινεται, λαβων υδωρ ενιψε τας χειρας αυτου εμπροσθεν του οχλου, λεγων? Αθωος ειμαι απο του αιματος του δικαιου τουτου? υμεις οψεσθε.	24 Then Pilate, seeing that he was able to accomplish nothing, but that a greater tumult was occurring, taking water, washed his hands in the sight of the people, saying: “I am innocent of the blood of this just man. See to it yourselves.”
25 Και αποκριθεις πας ο λαος ειπε? Το αιμα αυτου ας ηναι εφ' ημας και επι τα τεκνα ημων.	25 And the entire people responded by saying, “May his blood be upon us and upon our children.”
26 Τοτε απελυσεν εις αυτους τον Βαραββαν, τον δε Ιησουν μαστιγωσας παρεδωκε δια να σταυρωθη.	26 Then he released Barabbas to them. But Jesus, having been scourged, he handed over to them, so that he would be crucified.
27 Τοτε οι στρατιωται του ηγεμονος, παραλαβοντες τον Ιησουν εις το πραιτωριον, συνηθροισαν επ' αυτον ολον το ταγμα των στρατιωτων?	27 Then the soldiers of the procurator, taking Jesus up to the praetorium, gathered the entire cohort around him.
28 και εκδυσαντες αυτον ενεδυσαν αυτον χλαμυδα κοκκινην,	28 And stripping him, they put a scarlet cloak around him.
29 και πλεξαντες στεφανον εξ ακανθων, εθεσαν επι την κεφαλην αυτου και καλαμον εις την δεξιαν αυτου, και γονυπετησαντες εμπροσθεν αυτου, ενεπαιζον αυτον, λεγοντες? Χαιρε, ο βασιλευς των Ιουδαιων?	29 And plaiting a crown of thorns, they placed it on his head, with a reed in his right hand. And genuflecting before him, they mocked him, saying, “Hail, King of the Jews.”
30 και εμπτυσαντες εις αυτον ελαβον τον καλαμον και ετυπτον εις την κεφαλην αυτου.	30 And spitting on him, they took the reed and struck his head.
31 Και αφου ενεπαιξαν αυτον, εξεδυσαν αυτον την χλαμυδα και ενεδυσαν αυτον τα ιματια αυτου, και εφεραν αυτον δια να σταυρωσωσιν.	31 And after they had mocked him, they stripped him of the cloak, and clothed him with his own garments, and they led him away to crucify him.
32 Ενω δε εξηρχοντο, ευρον ανθρωπον Κυρηναιον, ονομαζομενον Σιμωνα? τουτον ηγγαρευσαν δια να σηκωση τον σταυρον αυτου.	32 But as they were going out, they came upon a man of Cyrene, named Simon, whom they compelled to take up his cross.
33 Και οτε ηλθον εις τοπον λεγομενον Γολγοθα, οστις λεγεται Κρανιου τοπος,	33 And they arrived at the place which is called Golgotha, which is the place of Calvary.
34 εδωκαν εις αυτον να πιη οξος μεμιγμενον μετα χολης? και γευθεις δεν ηθελε να πιη.	34 And they gave him wine to drink, mixed with gall. And when he had tasted it, he refused to drink it.
35 Αφου δε εσταυρωσαν αυτον διεμερισθησαν τα ιματια αυτου, βαλλοντες κληρον, δια να πληρωθη το ρηθεν υπο του προφητου, Διεμερισθησαν τα ιματια μου εις εαυτους και επι τον ιματισμον μου εβαλον κληρον.	35 Then, after they had crucified him, they divided his garments, casting lots, in order to fulfill what was spoken by the prophet, saying: “They divided my garments among them, and over my vestment they cast lots.”
36 Και καθημενοι εφυλαττον αυτον εκει.	36 And sitting down, they observed him.
37 Και εθεσαν επανωθεν της κεφαλης αυτου την κατηγοριαν αυτου γεγραμμενην? Ουτος εστιν Ιησους ο βασιλευς των Ιουδαιων.	37 And they set his accusation above his head, written as: THIS IS JESUS, KING OF THE JEWS.
38 Τοτε εσταυρωθησαν μετ' αυτου δυο λησται, εις εκ δεξιων και εις εξ αριστερων.	38 Then two robbers were crucified with him: one on the right and one on the left.
39 οι δε διαβαινοντες εβλασφημουν αυτον, κινουντες τας κεφαλας αυτων	39 But those passing by blasphemed him, shaking their heads,
40 και λεγοντες? Ο χαλων τον ναον και δια τριων ημερων οικοδομων, σωσον σεαυτον? αν ησαι Υιος του Θεου, καταβα απο του σταυρου.	40 and saying: “Ah, so you would destroy the temple of God and in three days rebuild it! Save your own self. If you are the Son of God, descend from the cross.”
41 Ομοιως δε και οι αρχιερεις εμπαιζοντες μετα των γραμματεων και πρεσβυτερων, ελεγον.	41 And similarly, the leaders of the priests, with the scribes and the elders, mocking him, said:
42 Αλλους εσωσεν, εαυτον δεν δυναται να σωση? αν ηναι βασιλευς του Ισραηλ, ας καταβη τωρα απο του σταυρου και θελομεν πιστευσει εις αυτον?	42 “He saved others; he cannot save himself. If he is the King of Israel, let him descend now from the cross, and we will believe in him.
43 πεποιθεν επι τον Θεον, ας σωση τωρα αυτον, εαν θελη αυτον? επειδη ειπεν οτι Θεου Υιος ειμαι.	43 He trusted in God; so now, let God free him, if he wills him. For he said, ‘I am the Son of God.’ ”
44 Το αυτο δε και οι λησται οι συσταυρωθεντες μετ' αυτου ωνειδιζον εις αυτον.	44 Then, the robbers who were crucified with him also reproached him with the very same thing.
45 Απο δε εκτης ωρας σκοτος εγεινεν εφ' ολην την γην εως ωρας εννατης?	45 Now from the sixth hour, there was darkness over the entire earth, even until the ninth hour.
46 περι δε την εννατην ωραν ανεβοησεν ο Ιησους μετα φωνης μεγαλης, λεγων? Ηλι, Ηλι, λαμα σαβαχθανι; τουτεστι, Θεε μου, Θεε μου, δια τι με εγκατελιπες;	46 And about the ninth hour, Jesus cried out with a loud voice, saying: “Eli, Eli, lamma sabacthani?” that is, “My God, My God, why have you forsaken me?”
47 Και τινες των εκει εστωτων ακουσαντες, ελεγον οτι τον Ηλιαν φωναζει ουτος.	47 Then certain ones who were standing and listening there said, “This man calls upon Elijah.”
48 Και ευθυς εδραμεν εις εξ αυτων και λαβων σπογγον και γεμισας οξους και περιθεσας εις καλαμον εποτιζεν αυτον.	48 And one of them, running quickly, took a sponge and filled it with vinegar, and he set it on a reed and he gave it to him to drink.
49 Οι δε λοιποι ελεγον? Αφες, ας ιδωμεν αν ερχηται ο Ηλιας να σωση αυτον.	49 Yet truly, the others said, “Wait. Let us see whether Elijah will come to free him.”
50 Ο δε Ιησους παλιν κραξας μετα φωνης μεγαλης, αφηκε το πνευμα.	50 Then Jesus, crying out again with a loud voice, gave up his life.
51 Και ιδου, το καταπετασμα του ναου εσχισθη εις δυο απο ανωθεν εως κατω, και η γη εσεισθη και αι πετραι εσχισθησαν,	51 And behold, the veil of the temple was torn into two parts, from top to bottom. And the earth was shaken, and the rocks were split apart.
52 και τα μνημεια ηνοιχθησαν και πολλα σωματα των κεκοιμημενων αγιων ανεστησαν,	52 And the tombs were opened. And many bodies of the saints, which had been sleeping, arose.
53 και εξελθοντες εκ των μνημειων μετα την αναστασιν αυτου εισηλθον εις την αγιαν πολιν και ενεφανισθησαν εις πολλους.	53 And going out from the tombs, after his resurrection, they went into the holy city, and they appeared to many.
54 Ο δε εκατονταρχος και οι μετ' αυτου φυλαττοντες τον Ιησουν, ιδοντες τον σεισμον και τα γενομενα, εφοβηθησαν σφοδρα, λεγοντες? Αληθως Θεου Υιος ητο ουτος.	54 Now the centurion and those who were with him, guarding Jesus, having seen the earthquake and the things that were done, were very fearful, saying: “Truly, this was the Son of God.”
55 Ησαν δε εκει γυναικες πολλαι απο μακροθεν θεωρουσαι, αιτινες ηκολουθησαν τον Ιησουν απο της Γαλιλαιας υπηρετουσαι αυτον?	55 And in that place, there were many women, at a distance, who had followed Jesus from Galilee, ministering to him.
56 μεταξυ των οποιων ητο Μαρια η Μαγδαληνη, και Μαρια η μητηρ του Ιακωβου και Ιωση, και η μητηρ των υιων Ζεβεδαιου.	56 Among these were Mary Magdalene and Mary the mother of James and Joseph, and the mother of the sons of Zebedee.
57 Οτε δε εγεινεν εσπερα, ηλθεν ανθρωπος πλουσιος απο Αριμαθαιας, το ονομα Ιωσηφ, οστις και αυτος εμαθητευσεν εις τον Ιησουν?	57 Then, when evening had arrived, a certain wealthy man from Arimathea, named Joseph, arrived, who himself was also a disciple of Jesus.
58 ουτος ελθων προς τον Πιλατον, εζητησε το σωμα του Ιησου. Τοτε ο Πιλατος προσεταξε να αποδοθη το σωμα.	58 This man approached Pilate and asked for the body of Jesus. Then Pilate ordered the body to be released.
59 Και λαβων το σωμα ο Ιωσηφ, ετυλιξεν αυτο με σινδονα καθαραν,	59 And Joseph, taking the body, wrapped it in a clean finely-woven linen cloth,
60 και εθεσεν αυτο εν τω νεω αυτου μνημειω, το οποιον ελατομησεν εν τη πετρα, και προσκυλισας λιθον μεγαν εις την θυραν του μνημειου ανεχωρησεν.	60 and he placed it in his own new tomb, which he had hewn out of a rock. And he rolled a great stone to the door of the tomb, and he went away.
61 Ητο δε εκει Μαρια η Μαγδαληνη και η αλλη Μαρια, καθημεναι απεναντι του ταφου.	61 Now Mary Magdalene and the other Mary were there, sitting opposite the sepulcher.
62 Και τη επαυριον, ητις ειναι μετα την παρασκευην, συνηχθησαν οι αρχιερεις και οι Φαρισαιοι προς τον Πιλατον	62 Then the next day, which is after the Preparation day, the leaders of the priests and the Pharisees went to Pilate together,
63 λεγοντες? Κυριε, ενεθυμηθημεν οτι εκεινος ο πλανος ειπεν ετι ζων, Μετα τρεις ημερας θελω αναστηθη.	63 saying: “Lord, we have remembered that that this seducer said, while he was still alive, ‘After three days, I will rise again.’
64 Προσταξον λοιπον να ασφαλισθη ο ταφος εως της τριτης ημερας, μηποτε οι μαθηται αυτου ελθοντες δια νυκτος κλεψωσιν αυτον και ειπωσι προς τον λαον, Ανεστη εκ των νεκρων? και θελει εισθαι η εσχατη πλανη χειροτερα της πρωτης.	64 Therefore, order the sepulcher to be guarded until the third day, lest perhaps his disciples may come and steal him, and say to the people, ‘He has risen from the dead.’ And this last error would be worse than the first.”
65 Ειπε δε προς αυτους ο Πιλατος? Εχετε φυλακας? υπαγετε, ασφαλισατε καθως εξευρετε.	65 Pilate said to them: “You have a guard. Go, guard it as you know how.”
66 Οι δε υπηγον και ησφαλισαν τον ταφον, σφραγισαντες τον λιθον και επιστησαντες τους φυλακας.	66 Then, going out, they secured the sepulcher with guards, sealing the stone.
