Vangelo secondo Giovanni - John 4

GREEK BIBLE	NEW JERUSALEM
1 Καθως λοιπον εμαθεν ο Κυριος οτι ηκουσαν οι Φαρισαιοι οτι ο Ιησους πλειοτερους μαθητας καμνει και βαπτιζει παρα ο Ιωαννης-	1 When Jesus heard that the Pharisees had found out that he was making and baptising more disciplesthan John-
2 αν και ο Ιησους αυτος δεν εβαπτιζεν, αλλ' οι μαθηται αυτου-	2 though in fact it was his disciples who baptised, not Jesus himself-
3 αφηκε την Ιουδαιαν και απηλθε παλιν εις την Γαλιλαιαν.	3 he left Judaea and went back to Galilee.
4 Επρεπε δε να περαση δια της Σαμαρειας.	4 He had to pass through Samaria.
5 Ερχεται λοιπον εις πολιν της Σαμαρειας λεγομενην Σιχαρ, πλησιον του αγρου, τον οποιον εδωκεν ο Ιακωβ εις τον Ιωσηφ τον υιον αυτου.	5 On the way he came to the Samaritan town cal ed Sychar near the land that Jacob gave to his sonJoseph.
6 Ητο δε εκει πηγη του Ιακωβ. Ο Ιησους λοιπον κεκοπιακως εκ της οδοιποριας εκαθητο ουτως εις την πηγην. Ωρα ητο περιπου εκτη.	6 Jacob's wel was there and Jesus, tired by the journey, sat down by the wel . It was about the sixth hour.
7 Ερχεται γυνη τις εκ της Σαμαρειας, δια να αντληση υδωρ. Λεγει προς αυτην ο Ιησους? Δος μοι να πιω.	7 When a Samaritan woman came to draw water, Jesus said to her, 'Give me something to drink.'
8 Διοτι οι μαθηται αυτου ειχον υπαγει εις την πολιν, δια να αγορασωσι τροφας.	8 His disciples had gone into the town to buy food.
9 Λεγει λοιπον προς αυτον η γυνη η Σαμαρειτις? Πως συ, Ιουδαιος ων, ζητεις να πιης παρ' εμου, ητις ειμαι γυνη Σαμαρειτις; Διοτι δεν συγκοινωνουσιν οι Ιουδαιοι με τους Σαμαρειτας.	9 The Samaritan woman said to him, 'You are a Jew. How is it that you ask me, a Samaritan, forsomething to drink?' -- Jews, of course, do not associate with Samaritans.
10 Απεκριθη ο Ιησους και ειπε προς αυτην? Εαν ηξευρες την δωρεαν του Θεου, και τις ειναι ο λεγων σοι, Δος μοι να πιω, συ ηθελες ζητησει παρ' αυτου, και ηθελε σοι δωσει υδωρ ζων.	10 Jesus replied to her: If you only knew what God is offering and who it is that is saying to you, 'Give mesomething to drink,' you would have been the one to ask, and he would have given you living water.
11 Λεγει προς αυτον η γυνη? Κυριε, ουτε αντλημα εχεις, και το φρεαρ ειναι βαθυ? ποθεν λοιπον εχεις το υδωρ το ζων;	11 'You have no bucket, sir,' she answered, 'and the well is deep: how do you get this living water?
12 μηπως συ εισαι μεγαλητερος του πατρος ημων Ιακωβ, οστις εδωκεν εις ημας το φρεαρ, και αυτος επιεν εξ αυτου και οι υιοι αυτου και τα θρεμματα αυτου;	12 Are you a greater man than our father Jacob, who gave us this wel and drank from it himself with hissons and his cattle?'
13 Απεκριθη ο Ιησους και ειπε προς αυτην? Πας οστις πινει εκ του υδατος τουτου θελει διψησει παλιν?	13 Jesus replied: Whoever drinks this water wil be thirsty again;
14 οστις ομως πιη εκ του υδατος, το οποιον εγω θελω δωσει εις αυτον, δεν θελει διψησει εις τον αιωνα, αλλα το υδωρ, το οποιον θελω δωσει εις αυτον, θελει γεινει εν αυτω πηγη υδατος αναβλυζοντος εις ζωην αιωνιον.	14 but no one who drinks the water that I shal give wil ever be thirsty again: the water that I shal give wil become a spring of water within, welling up for eternal life.
15 Λεγει προς αυτον η γυνη? Κυριε, δος μοι τουτο το υδωρ, δια να μη διψω μηδε να ερχωμαι εδω να αντλω.	15 'Sir,' said the woman, 'give me some of that water, so that I may never be thirsty or come here again todraw water.'
16 Λεγει προς αυτην ο Ιησους? Υπαγε, καλεσον τον ανδρα σου και ελθε εδω.	16 'Go and call your husband,' said Jesus to her, 'and come back here.'
17 Απεκριθη η γυνη και ειπε? Δεν εχω ανδρα. Λεγει προς αυτην ο Ιησους? Καλως ειπας οτι δεν εχω ανδρα?	17 The woman answered, 'I have no husband.' Jesus said to her, 'You are right to say, "I have nohusband";
18 διοτι πεντε ανδρας ελαβες, και εκεινος, τον οποιον εχεις τωρα, δεν ειναι ανηρ σου? τουτο αληθες ειπας.	18 for although you have had five, the one you now have is not your husband. You spoke the truth there.'
19 Λεγει προς αυτον η γυνη? Κυριε, βλεπω οτι συ εισαι προφητης.	19 'I see you are a prophet, sir,' said the woman.
20 Οι πατερες ημων εις τουτο το ορος προσεκυνησαν, και σεις λεγετε οτι εν τοις Ιεροσολυμοις ειναι ο τοπος οπου πρεπει να προσκυνωμεν.	20 'Our fathers worshipped on this mountain, though you say that Jerusalem is the place where one oughtto worship.'
21 Λεγει προς αυτην ο Ιησους? Γυναι, πιστευσον μοι οτι ερχεται ωρα, οτε ουτε εις το ορος τουτο ουτε εις τα Ιεροσολυμα θελετε προσκυνησει τον Πατερα.	21 Jesus said: Believe me, woman, the hour is coming when you wil worship the Father neither on thismountain nor in Jerusalem.
22 Σεις προσκυνειτε εκεινο το οποιον δεν εξευρετε, ημεις προσκυνουμεν εκεινο το οποιον εξευρομεν, διοτι η σωτηρια ειναι εκ των Ιουδαιων.	22 You worship what you do not know; we worship what we do know; for salvation comes from the Jews.
23 Πλην ερχεται ωρα, και ηδη ειναι, οτε οι αληθινοι προσκυνηται θελουσι προσκυνησει τον Πατερα εν πνευματι και αληθεια? διοτι ο Πατηρ τοιουτους ζητει τους προσκυνουντας αυτον.	23 But the hour is coming -- indeed is already here -- when true worshippers wil worship the Father inspirit and truth: that is the kind of worshipper the Father seeks.
24 Ο Θεος ειναι Πνευμα, και οι προσκυνουντες αυτον εν πνευματι και αληθεια πρεπει να προσκυνωσι.	24 God is spirit, and those who worship must worship in spirit and truth.
25 Λεγει προς αυτον η γυνη? Εξευρω οτι ερχεται ο Μεσσιας, ο λεγομενος Χριστος? οταν ελθη εκεινος, θελει αναγγειλει εις ημας παντα.	25 The woman said to him, 'I know that Messiah -- that is, Christ -- is coming; and when he comes he wilexplain everything.'
26 Λεγει προς αυτην ο Ιησους? Εγω ειμαι, ο λαλων σοι.	26 Jesus said, 'That is who I am, I who speak to you.'
27 Και επανω εις τουτο ηλθον οι μαθηται αυτου και εθαυμασαν οτι ελαλει μετα γυναικος? ουδεις ομως ειπε, Τι ζητεις; η Τι λαλεις μετ' αυτης;	27 At this point his disciples returned and were surprised to find him speaking to a woman, though noneof them asked, 'What do you want from her?' or, 'What are you talking to her about?'
28 Αφηκε λοιπον η γυνη την υδριαν αυτης και υπηγεν εις την πολιν και λεγει προς τους ανθρωπους?	28 The woman put down her water jar and hurried back to the town to tel the people,
29 Ελθετε να ιδητε ανθρωπον, οστις μοι ειπε παντα οσα επραξα? μηπως ουτος ειναι ο Χριστος;	29 'Come and see a man who has told me everything I have done; could this be the Christ?'
30 Εξηλθον λοιπον εκ της πολεως και ηρχοντο προς αυτον.	30 This brought people out of the town and they made their way towards him.
31 Εν δε τω μεταξυ οι μαθηται παρεκαλουν αυτον λεγοντες? Ραββι, φαγε.	31 Meanwhile, the disciples were urging him, 'Rabbi, do have something to eat';
32 Ο δε ειπε προς αυτους. Εγω εχω φαγητον να φαγω, το οποιον σεις δεν εξευρετε.	32 but he said, 'I have food to eat that you do not know about.'
33 Ελεγον λοιπον οι μαθηται προς αλληλους? Μηπως τις εφερε προς αυτον να φαγη;	33 So the disciples said to one another, 'Has someone brought him food?'
34 Λεγει προς αυτους ο Ιησους? Το εμον φαγητον ειναι να πραττω το θελημα του πεμψαντος με και να τελειωσω το εργον αυτου.	34 But Jesus said: My food is to do the will of the one who sent me, and to complete his work.
35 Δεν λεγετε σεις οτι τεσσαρες μηνες ειναι ετι και ο θερισμος ερχεται; Ιδου, σας λεγω, υψωσατε τους οφθαλμους σας και ιδετε τα χωραφια, οτι ειναι ηδη λευκα προς θερισμον.	35 Do you not have a saying: Four months and then the harvest? Wel , I tel you, look around you, look atthe fields; already they are white, ready for harvest!
36 Και ο θεριζων λαμβανει μισθον και συναγει καρπον εις ζωην αιωνιον, δια να χαιρη ομου και ο σπειρων και ο θεριζων.	36 Already the reaper is being paid his wages, already he is bringing in the grain for eternal life, so thatsower and reaper can rejoice together.
37 Διοτι κατα τουτο αληθευει ο λογος, οτι αλλος ειναι ο σπειρων και αλλος ο θεριζων.	37 For here the proverb holds true: one sows, another reaps;
38 Εγω σας απεστειλα να θεριζητε εκεινο, εις το οποιον σεις δεν εκοπιασατε? αλλοι εκοπιασαν, και σεις εισηλθετε εις τον κοπον αυτων.	38 I sent you to reap a harvest you have not laboured for. Others have laboured for it; and you have comeinto the rewards of their labour.
39 Εξ εκεινης δε της πολεως πολλοι των Σαμαρειτων επιστευσαν εις αυτον δια τον λογον της γυναικος, μαρτυρουσης οτι μοι ειπε παντα οσα επραξα.	39 Many Samaritans of that town believed in him on the strength of the woman's words of testimony, 'Hetold me everything I have done.'
40 Καθως λοιπον ηλθον προς αυτον οι Σαμαρειται, παρεκαλουν αυτον να μεινη παρ' αυτοις? και εμεινεν εκει δυο ημερας.	40 So, when the Samaritans came up to him, they begged him to stay with them. He stayed for two days,and
41 Και πολυ πλειοτεροι επιστευσαν δια τον λογον αυτου,	41 many more came to believe on the strength of the words he spoke to them;
42 και προς την γυναικα ελεγον, οτι δεν πιστευομεν πλεον δια τον λογον σου? επειδη ημεις ηκουσαμεν, και γνωριζομεν οτι ουτος ειναι αληθως ο Σωτηρ του κοσμου, ο Χριστος.	42 and they said to the woman, 'Now we believe no longer because of what you told us; we have heardhim ourselves and we know that he is indeed the Saviour of the world.'
43 Μετα δε τας δυο ημερας εξηλθεν εκειθεν και υπηγεν εις την Γαλιλαιαν.	43 When the two days were over Jesus left for Galilee.
44 Διοτι αυτος ο Ιησους εμαρτυρησεν οτι προφητης εν τη πατριδι αυτου δεν εχει τιμην.	44 He himself had declared that a prophet is not honoured in his own home town.
45 Οτε λοιπον ηλθεν εις την Γαλιλαιαν, εδεχθησαν αυτον οι Γαλιλαιοι, ιδοντες παντα οσα εκαμεν εν Ιεροσολυμοις κατα την εορτην? διοτι και αυτοι ηλθον εις την εορτην.	45 On his arrival the Galileans received him wel , having seen al that he had done at Jerusalem duringthe festival which they too had attended.
46 Ηλθε λοιπον ο Ιησους παλιν εις την Κανα της Γαλιλαιας, οπου εκαμε το υδωρ οινον. Και ητο τις βασιλικος ανθρωπος, του οποιου ο υιος ησθενει εν Καπερναουμ?	46 He went again to Cana in Galilee, where he had changed the water into wine. And there was a royalofficial whose son was il at Capernaum;
47 ουτος ακουσας οτι ο Ιησους ηλθεν εκ της Ιουδαιας εις την Γαλιλαιαν, υπηγε προς αυτον και παρεκαλει αυτον να καταβη και να ιατρευση τον υιον αυτου? διοτι εμελλε να αποθανη.	47 hearing that Jesus had arrived in Galilee from Judaea, he went and asked him to come and cure hisson, as he was at the point of death.
48 Ειπε λοιπον ο Ιησους προς αυτον? Εαν δεν ιδητε σημεια και τερατα, δεν θελετε πιστευσει.	48 Jesus said to him, 'Unless you see signs and portents you will not believe!'
49 Λεγει προς αυτον ο βασιλικος? Κυριε, καταβα πριν αποθανη το παιδιον μου.	49 'Sir,' answered the official, 'come down before my child dies.'
50 Λεγει προς αυτον ο Ιησους? Υπαγε, ο υιος σου ζη. Και επιστευσεν ο ανθρωπος εις τον λογον, τον οποιον ειπε προς αυτον ο Ιησους, και ανεχωρει.	50 'Go home,' said Jesus, 'your son wil live.' The man believed what Jesus had said and went on his wayhome;
51 Ενω δε ουτος ηδη κατεβαινεν, απηντησαν αυτον οι δουλοι αυτου και απηγγειλαν λεγοντες οτι ο υιος σου ζη.	51 and while he was stil on the way his servants met him with the news that his boy was alive.
52 Ηρωτησε λοιπον αυτους την ωραν, καθ' ην εγεινε καλητερα. Και ειπον προς αυτον οτι Χθες την εβδομην ωραν αφηκεν αυτον ο πυρετος.	52 He asked them when the boy had begun to recover. They replied, 'The fever left him yesterday at theseventh hour.'
53 Ενοησε λοιπον ο πατηρ οτι εγεινε τουτο κατ' εκεινην την ωραν, καθ' ην ο Ιησους ειπε προς αυτον οτι Ο υιος σου ζη? και επιστευσεν αυτος και ολη η οικια αυτου.	53 The father realised that this was exactly the time when Jesus had said, 'Your son wil live'; and he andal his household believed.
54 Τουτο παλιν δευτερον θαυμα εκαμεν ο Ιησους, αφου ηλθεν εκ της Ιουδαιας εις την Γαλιλαιαν.	54 This new sign, the second, Jesus performed on his return from Judaea to Galilee.
