Luke 17

NEW JERUSALEM	GREEK BIBLE
1 He said to his disciples, 'Causes of fal ing are sure to come, but alas for the one through whom theyoccur!	1 Ειπε δε προς τους μαθητας? Αδυνατον ειναι να μη ελθωσι τα σκανδαλα? πλην ουαι εις εκεινον, δια του οποιου ερχονται.
2 It would be better for such a person to be thrown into the sea with a mil stone round the neck than tobe the downfal of a single one of these little ones.	2 Συμφερει εις αυτον να κρεμασθη περι τον τραχηλον αυτου μυλου πετρα και να ριφθη εις την θαλασσαν, παρα να σκανδαλιση ενα των μικρων τουτων.
3 Keep watch on yourselves! 'If your brother does something wrong, rebuke him and, if he is sorry,forgive him.	3 Προσεχετε εις εαυτους. Εαν δε ο αδελφος σου αμαρτηση εις σε, επιπληξον αυτον? και εαν μετανοηση, συγχωρησον αυτον.
4 And if he wrongs you seven times a day and seven times comes back to you and says, "I am sorry,"you must forgive him.'	4 και εαν επτακις της ημερας αμαρτηση εις σε, και επτακις της ημερας επιστρεψη προς σε λεγων? Μετανοω, θελεις συγχωρησει αυτον.
5 The apostles said to the Lord, 'Increase our faith.'	5 Και ειπον οι αποστολοι προς τον Κυριον? Αυξησον εις ημας την πιστιν.
6 The Lord replied, 'If you had faith like a mustard seed you could say to this mulberry tree, "Be uprootedand planted in the sea," and it would obey you.	6 Ο δε Κυριος ειπεν? Εαν εχετε πιστιν ως κοκκον σιναπεως, ηθελετε ειπει εις την συκαμινον ταυτην, Εκριζωθητι και φυτευθητι εις την θαλασσαν? και ηθελε σας υπακουσει.
7 'Which of you, with a servant ploughing or minding sheep, would say to him when he returned from thefields, "Come and have your meal at once"?	7 Τις δε απο σας εχων δουλον αροτριωντα η ποιμαινοντα, θελει ειπει προς αυτον, ευθυς αφου ελθη εκ του αγρου? Υπαγε, καθησον να φαγης,
8 Would he not be more likely to say, "Get my supper ready; fasten your belt and wait on me while I eatand drink. You yourself can eat and drink afterwards"?	8 και δεν θελει ειπει προς αυτον? Ετοιμασον τι να δειπνησω, και περιζωσθεις υπηρετει με, εωσου φαγω και πιω, και μετα ταυτα θελεις φαγει και πιει συ;
9 Must he be grateful to the servant for doing what he was told?	9 Μηπως γνωριζει χαριν εις τον δουλον εκεινον, διοτι εκαμε τα διαταχθεντα εις αυτον; δεν μοι φαινεται.
10 So with you: when you have done al you have been told to do, say, "We are useless servants: wehave done no more than our duty." '	10 Ουτω και σεις, οταν καμητε παντα τα διαταχθεντα εις εσας, λεγετε οτι δουλοι αχρειοι ειμεθα, επειδη εκαμαμεν ο, τι εχρεωστουμεν να καμωμεν.
11 Now it happened that on the way to Jerusalem he was travel ing in the borderlands of Samaria andGalilee.	11 Και οτε αυτος επορευετο εις την Ιερουσαλημ, διεβαινε δια μεσου της Σαμαρειας και Γαλιλαιας.
12 As he entered one of the villages, ten men suffering from a virulent skin-disease came to meet him.They stood some way off	12 Και ενω εισηρχετο εις τινα κωμην, απηντησαν αυτον δεκα ανθρωποι λεπροι, οιτινες εσταθησαν μακροθεν,
13 and cal ed to him, 'Jesus! Master! Take pity on us.'	13 και αυτοι υψωσαν φωνην, λεγοντες? Ιησου, Επιστατα, ελεησον ημας.
14 When he saw them he said, 'Go and show yourselves to the priests.' Now as they were going awaythey were cleansed.	14 Και ιδων ειπε προς αυτους? Υπαγετε και δειξατε εαυτους εις τους ιερεις. Και ενω, επορευοντο, εκαθαρισθησαν.
15 Finding himself cured, one of them turned back praising God at the top of his voice	15 Εις δε εξ αυτων, ιδων οτι ιατρευθη, υπεστρεψε μετα φωνης μεγαλης δοξαζων τον Θεον,
16 and threw himself prostrate at the feet of Jesus and thanked him. The man was a Samaritan.	16 και επεσε κατα προσωπον εις τους ποδας αυτου, ευχαριστων αυτον? και αυτος ητο Σαμαρειτης.
17 This led Jesus to say, 'Were not al ten made clean? The other nine, where are they?	17 Αποκριθεις δε ο Ιησους ειπε? Δεν εκαθαρισθησαν οι δεκα; οι δε εννεα που ειναι;
18 It seems that no one has come back to give praise to God, except this foreigner.'	18 Δεν ευρεθησαν αλλοι να υποστρεψωσι δια να δοξασωσι τον Θεον ειμη ο αλλογενης ουτος;
19 And he said to the man, 'Stand up and go on your way. Your faith has saved you.'	19 Και ειπε προς αυτον? Σηκωθεις υπαγε? η πιστις σου σε εσωσεν.
20 Asked by the Pharisees when the kingdom of God was to come, he gave them this answer, 'Thecoming of the kingdom of God does not admit of observation	20 Ερωτηθεις δε υπο των Φαρισαιων, ποτε ερχεται η βασιλεια του Θεου, απεκριθη προς αυτους και ειπε? Δεν ερχεται η βασιλεια του Θεου ουτως ωστε να παρατηρηται?
21 and there will be no one to say, "Look, it is here! Look, it is there!" For look, the kingdom of God isamong you.'	21 ουδε θελουσιν ειπει? Ιδου, εδω ειναι, η Ιδου εκει? διοτι ιδου, η βασιλεια του Θεου ειναι εντος υμων.
22 He said to the disciples, 'A time wil come when you wil long to see one of the days of the Son ofman and wil not see it.	22 Ειπε δε προς τους μαθητας? θελουσιν ελθει ημεραι, οτε θελετε επιθυμησει να ιδητε μιαν των ημερων του Υιου του ανθρωπου, και δεν θελετε ιδει.
23 They will say to you, "Look, it is there!" or, "Look, it is here!" Make no move; do not set off in pursuit;	23 και θελουσι σας ειπει? Ιδου, εδω ειναι, η Ιδου εκει? μη υπαγητε μηδ' ακολουθησητε.
24 for as the lightning flashing from one part of heaven lights up the other, so wil be the Son of manwhen his Day comes.	24 Διοτι ως η αστραπη η αστραπτουσα εκ της υπ' ουρανον λαμπει εις την υπ' ουρανον, ουτω θελει εισθαι και ο Υιος του ανθρωπου εν τη ημερα αυτου.
25 But first he is destined to suffer grievously and be rejected by this generation.	25 Πρωτον ομως πρεπει αυτος να παθη πολλα και να καταφρονηθη απο της γενεας ταυτης.
26 'As it was in Noah's day, so wil it also be in the days of the Son of man.	26 Και καθως εγεινεν εν ταις ημεραις του Νωε, ουτω θελει εισθαι και εν ταις ημεραις του Υιου του ανθρωπου?
27 People were eating and drinking, marrying wives and husbands, right up to the day Noah went intothe ark, and the Flood came and destroyed them all.	27 ετρωγον, επινον, ενυμφευον, ενυμφευοντο, μεχρι της ημερας καθ' ην ο Νωε εισηλθεν εις την κιβωτον, και ηλθεν ο κατακλυσμος και απωλεσεν απαντας.
28 It wil be the same as it was in Lot's day: people were eating and drinking, buying and selling, plantingand building,	28 Ομοιως και καθως εγεινεν εν ταις ημεραις του Λωτ? ετρωγον, επινον, ηγοραζον, επωλουν, εφυτευον, ωκοδομουν?
29 but the day Lot left Sodom, it rained fire and brimstone from heaven and it destroyed them all.	29 καθ' ην δε ημεραν εξηλθεν ο Λωτ απο Σοδομων, εβρεξε πυρ και θειον απ' ουρανου και απωλεσεν απαντας.
30 It wil be the same when the day comes for the Son of man to be revealed.	30 Ωσαυτως θελει εισθαι καθ' ην ημεραν ο Υιος του ανθρωπου θελει φανερωθη.
31 'When that Day comes, no one on the housetop, with his possessions in the house, must come downto col ect them, nor must anyone in the fields turn back.	31 Κατ' εκεινην την ημεραν οστις ευρεθη επι του δωματος και τα σκευη αυτου εν τη οικια, ας μη καταβη δια να λαβη αυτα, και οστις εν τω αγρω ομοιως ας μη επιστρεψη εις τα οπισω.
32 Remember Lot's wife.	32 Ενθυμεισθε την γυναικα του Λωτ.
33 Anyone who tries to preserve his life wil lose it; and anyone who loses it wil keep it safe.	33 Οστις ζητηση να σωση την ζωην αυτου, θελει απολεσει αυτην, και οστις απολεση αυτην, θελει διαφυλαξει αυτην.
34 I tel you, on that night, when two are in one bed, one wil be taken, the other left;	34 Σας λεγω, Εν τη νυκτι εκεινη θελουσιν εισθαι δυο επι μιας κλινης, ο εις παραλαμβανεται και ο αλλος αφινεται?
35 when two women are grinding corn together, one wil be taken, the other left.'	35 δυο γυναικες θελουσιν αλεθει ομου, η μια παραλαμβανεται και η αλλη αφινεται?
36	36 δυο θελουσιν εισθαι εν τω αγρω, ο εις παραλαμβανεται και ο αλλος αφινεται.
37 The disciples spoke up and asked, 'Where, Lord?' He said, 'Where the body is, there too will thevultures gather.'	37 Και αποκριθεντες λεγουσι προς αυτον? Που, Κυριε; Ο δε ειπε προς αυτους? Οπου ειναι το σωμα, εκει θελουσι συναχθη οι αετοι.
