Vangelo secondo Luca - Luke 5

GREEK BIBLE	NEW JERUSALEM
1 Ενω δε ο οχλος συνεθλιβεν αυτον δια να ακουη τον λογον του Θεου, αυτος ιστατο πλησιον της λιμνης Γεννησαρετ,	1 Now it happened that he was standing one day by the Lake of Gennesaret, with the crowd pressinground him listening to the word of God,
2 και ειδε δυο πλοια ισταμενα παρα την λιμνην οι δε αλιεις αποβαντες απ' αυτων εξεπλυναν τα δικτυα.	2 when he caught sight of two boats at the water's edge. The fishermen had got out of them and werewashing their nets.
3 Εμβας δε εις εν των πλοιων, το οποιον ητο του Σιμωνος, παρεκαλεσεν αυτον να απομακρυνη αυτο ολιγον απο της γης, και καθησας εδιδασκεν εκ του πλοιου τους οχλους.	3 He got into one of the boats -- it was Simon's -- and asked him to put out a little from the shore. Then hesat down and taught the crowds from the boat.
4 Καθως δε επαυσε λαλων, ειπε προς τον Σιμωνα? Επαναγαγε το πλοιον εις τα βαθεα και ριψατε τα δικτυα υμων δια να οψαρευσητε.	4 When he had finished speaking he said to Simon, 'Put out into deep water and pay out your nets for acatch.'
5 Και αποκριθεις ο Σιμων, ειπε προς αυτον? Διδασκαλε, δι' ολης της νυκτος κοπιασαντες δεν επιασαμεν ουδεν? αλλ' ομως επι τω λογω σου θελω ριψει το δικτυον.	5 Simon replied, 'Master, we worked hard al night long and caught nothing, but if you say so, I wil payout the nets.'
6 Και αφου εκαμον τουτο, συνεκλεισαν πληθος πολυ ιχθυων και διεσχιζετο το δικτυον αυτων.	6 And when they had done this they netted such a huge number of fish that their nets began to tear,
7 Και εκαμον νευμα εις τους συντροφους τους εν τω αλλω πλοιω, δια να ελθωσι να βοηθησωσιν αυτους? και ηλθον και εγεμισαν αμφοτερα τα πλοια, ωστε εβυθιζοντο.	7 so they signal ed to their companions in the other boat to come and help them; when these came, theyfilled both boats to sinking point.
8 Ιδων δε ο Σιμων Πετρος, προσεπεσε προς τα γονατα του Ιησου, λεγων? Εξελθε απ' εμου, διοτι ειμαι ανθρωπος αμαρτωλος, Κυριε.	8 When Simon Peter saw this he fel at the knees of Jesus saying, 'Leave me, Lord; I am a sinful man.'
9 Επειδη εκπληξις κατελαβεν αυτον και παντας τους μετ' αυτου δια την αγραν των ιχθυων, την οποιαν συνελαβον,	9 For he and all his companions were completely awestruck at the catch they had made;
10 ομοιως δε και τον Ιακωβον και Ιωαννην, τους υιους του Ζεβεδαιου, οιτινες ησαν συντροφοι του Σιμωνος. Και ειπε προς τον Σιμωνα ο Ιησους? Μη φοβου? απο του νυν ανθρωπους θελεις αγρευει.	10 so also were James and John, sons of Zebedee, who were Simon's partners. But Jesus said to Simon,'Do not be afraid; from now on it is people you wil be catching.'
11 Και αφου εφεραν τα πλοια επι την γην, αφησαντες απαντα ηκολουθησαν αυτον.	11 Then, bringing their boats back to land they left everything and fol owed him.
12 Και ενω ητο εν μια των πολεων ιδου, ανθρωπος πληρης λεπρας? και ιδων τον Ιησουν, επεσε κατα προσωπον και παρεκαλεσεν αυτον, λεγων? Κυριε, εαν θελης, δυνασαι να με καθαρισης.	12 Now it happened that Jesus was in one of the towns when suddenly a man appeared, covered with askin-disease. Seeing Jesus he fel on his face and implored him saying, 'Sir, if you are wil ing you can cleanseme.'
13 Και εκτεινας την χειρα, ηγγισεν αυτον και ειπε? Θελω, καθαρισθητι. Και ευθυς η λεπρα εφυγεν απ' αυτου.	13 He stretched out his hand, and touched him saying, 'I am wil ing. Be cleansed.' At once the skin-disease left him.
14 Και αυτος παρηγγειλεν αυτον να μη ειπη τουτο προς μηδενα, αλλ' υπαγε, λεγει, και δειξον σεαυτον εις τον ιερεα και προσφερε περι του καθαρισμου σου, καθως προσεταξεν ο Μωυσης, δια μαρτυριαν εις αυτους.	14 He ordered him to tell no one, 'But go and show yourself to the priest and make the offering for yourcleansing just as Moses prescribed, as evidence to them.'
15 Αλλ' ετι μαλλον διηρχετο η φημη περι αυτου, και συνηθροιζοντο οχλοι πολλοι, δια να ακουωσι και να θεραπευωνται υπ' αυτου απο των ασθενειων αυτων?	15 But the news of him kept spreading, and large crowds would gather to hear him and to have theiril nesses cured,
16 αυτος δε απεσυρετο εις τας ερημους και προσηυχετο.	16 but he would go off to some deserted place and pray.
17 Και εν μια των ημερων, ενω αυτος εδιδασκεν, εκαθηντο Φαρισαιοι και νομοδιδασκαλοι, οιτινες ειχον ελθει εκ πασης κωμης της Γαλιλαιας και Ιουδαιας και Ιερουσαλημ? και δυναμις Κυριου ητο εις το να ιατρευη αυτους.	17 Now it happened that he was teaching one day, and Pharisees and teachers of the Law, who hadcome from every vil age in Galilee, from Judaea and from Jerusalem, were sitting there. And the power of theLord was there so that he should heal.
18 Και ιδου, ανδρες φεροντες επι κλινης ανθρωπον, οστις ητο παραλυτικος, και εζητουν να φερωσιν αυτον εσω και να θεσωσιν ενωπιον αυτου?	18 And now some men appeared, bringing on a bed a paralysed man whom they were trying to bring inand lay down in front of him.
19 και μη ευροντες δια ποιας εισοδου να φερωσιν αυτον εσω εξ αιτιας του οχλου, ανεβησαν επι το δωμα και δια των κεραμιδων κατεβιβασαν αυτον μετα του κλινιδιου εις το μεσον εμπροσθεν του Ιησου.	19 But as they could find no way of getting the man through the crowd, they went up onto the top of thehouse and lowered him and his stretcher down through the tiles into the middle of the gathering, in front ofJesus.
20 Και ιδων την πιστιν αυτων, ειπε προς αυτον? Ανθρωπε, συγκεχωρημεναι ειναι εις σε αι αμαρτιαι σου.	20 Seeing their faith he said, 'My friend, your sins are forgiven you.'
21 Και ηρχισαν να διαλογιζωνται οι γραμματεις και οι Φαρισαιοι, λεγοντες? Τις ειναι ουτος, οστις λαλει βλασφημιας; τις δυναται να συγχωρη αμαρτιας ειμη μονος ο Θεος;	21 The scribes and the Pharisees began to think this over. 'Who is this man, talking blasphemy? Who butGod alone can forgive sins?'
22 Νοησας δε ο Ιησους τους διαλογισμους αυτων, απεκριθη και ειπε προς αυτους? Τι διαλογιζεσθε εν ταις καρδιαις σας;	22 But Jesus, aware of their thoughts, made them this reply, 'What are these thoughts you have in yourhearts?
23 τι ειναι ευκολωτερον, να ειπω, Συγκεχωρημεναι ειναι εις σε αι αμαρτιαι σου, η να ειπω, Σηκωθητι και περιπατει;	23 Which of these is easier: to say, "Your sins are forgiven you," or to say, "Get up and walk"?
24 αλλα δια να γνωρισητε οτι εξουσιαν εχει ο ιος του ανθρωπου επι της γης να συγχωρη αμαρτιας, ειπε προς τον παραλυτικον? Προς σε λεγω, Σηκωθητι και σηκωσον το κλινιδιον σου και υπαγε εις τον οικον σου.	24 But to prove to you that the Son of man has authority on earth to forgive sins,' -- he said to theparalysed man-'I order you: get up, and pick up your stretcher and go home.'
25 Και παρευθυς εγερθεις ενωπιον αυτων, εσηκωσε το κλινιδιον εφ' ου κατεκειτο και ανεχωρησεν εις τον οικον αυτου, δοξαζων τον Θεον.	25 And immediately before their very eyes he got up, picked up what he had been lying on and wenthome praising God.
26 Και εκστασις κατελαβεν απαντας και εδοξαζον τον Θεον, και επλησθησαν φοβου, λεγοντες οτι ειδομεν παραδοξα σημερον.	26 They were all astounded and praised God and were fil ed with awe, saying, 'We have seen strangethings today.'
27 Και μετα ταυτα εξηλθε και ειδε τελωνην τινα Λευιν το ονομα, καθημενον εις το τελωνιον, και ειπε προς αυτον? Ακολουθει μοι.	27 When he went out after this, he noticed a tax collector, Levi by name, sitting at the tax office, and saidto him, 'Fol ow me.'
28 Και αφησας απαντα, εσηκωθη και ηκολουθησεν αυτον.	28 And leaving everything Levi got up and fol owed him.
29 Και εκαμεν εις αυτον ο Λευις υποδοχην μεγαλην εν τη οικια αυτου, και ητο πληθος πολυ τελωνων και αλλων, οιτινες εκαθηντο μετ' αυτων εις την τραπεζαν.	29 In his honour Levi held a great reception in his house, and with them at table was a large gathering oftax col ectors and others.
30 Και εγογγυζον οι γραμματεις αυτων και οι Φαρισαιοι προς τους μαθητας αυτου, λεγοντες? Δια τι μετα τελωνων και αμαρτωλων τρωγετε και πινετε;	30 The Pharisees and their scribes complained to his disciples and said, 'Why do you eat and drink withtax col ectors and sinners?'
31 Και αποκριθεις ο Ιησους, ειπε προς αυτους? Δεν εχουσι χρειαν ιατρου οι υγιαινοντες, αλλ' οι πασχοντες.	31 Jesus said to them in reply, 'It is not those that are wel who need the doctor, but the sick.
32 Δεν ηλθον δια να καλεσω δικαιους, αλλα αμαρτωλους εις μετανοιαν.	32 I have come to cal not the upright but sinners to repentance.'
33 Οι δε ειπον προς αυτον? Δια τι οι μαθηται του Ιωαννου νηστευουσι συχνα και καμνουσι δεησεις, ομοιως και οι των Φαρισαιων, οι δε ιδικοι σου τρωγουσι και πινουσιν;	33 They then said to him, 'John's disciples are always fasting and saying prayers, and the disciples of thePharisees, too, but yours go on eating and drinking.'
34 Ο δε ειπε προς αυτους? Μηπως δυνασθε να καμητε τους υιους του νυμφωνος να νηστευωσιν, ενοσω ειναι μετ' αυτων ο νυμφιος;	34 Jesus replied, 'Surely you cannot make the bridegroom's attendants fast while the bridegroom is stillwith them?
35 θελουσιν ομως ελθει ημεραι, οταν αφαιρεθη απ' αυτων ο νυμφιος? τοτε θελουσι νηστευει εν εκειναις ταις ημεραις.	35 But the time wil come when the bridegroom is taken away from them; then, in those days, they wilfast.'
36 Ελεγε δε και παραβολην προς αυτους, οτι ουδεις βαλλει επιρραμμα ιματιου νεου επι ιματιον παλαιον ει δε μη, και το νεον σχιζει και με το παλαιον δεν συμφωνει το επιρραμμα το απο του νεου.	36 He also told them a parable, 'No one tears a piece from a new cloak to put it on an old cloak;otherwise, not only wil the new one be torn, but the piece taken from the new wil not match the old.
37 Και ουδεις βαλλει οινον νεον εις ασκους παλαιους ει δε μη, ο νεος οινος θελει σχισει τους ασκους, και αυτος θελει εκχυθη και οι ασκοι θελουσι φθαρη	37 'And nobody puts new wine in old wineskins; otherwise, the new wine wil burst the skins and run towaste, and the skins wil be ruined.
38 αλλα πρεπει να βαλληται ο νεος οινος εις ασκους νεους, και αμφοτερα διατηρουνται.	38 No; new wine must be put in fresh skins.
39 Και ουδεις αφου πιη οινον παλαιον, θελει ευθυς νεον? διοτι λεγει? Ο παλαιος ειναι καλητερος.	39 And nobody who has been drinking old wine wants new. "The old is good," he says.'
