Vangelo secondo Matteo - Matthew 7

GREEK BIBLE	CATHOLIC PUBLIC DOMAIN
1 Μη κρινετε, δια να μη κριθητε?	1 “Do not judge, so that you may not be judged.
2 διοτι με οποιαν κρισιν κρινετε θελετε κριθη, και με οποιον μετρον μετρειτε θελει αντιμετρηθη εις εσας.	2 For with whatever judgment you judge, so shall you be judged; and with whatever measure you measure out, so shall it be measured back to you.
3 Και δια τι βλεπεις το ξυλαριον το εν τω οφθαλμω του αδελφου σου, την δε δοκον την εν τω οφθαλμω σου δεν παρατηρεις;	3 And how can you see the splinter in your brother’s eye, and not see the board in your own eye?
4 Η πως θελεις ειπει προς τον αδελφον σου, Αφες να εκβαλω το ξυλαριον απο του οφθαλμου σου, ενω η δοκος ειναι εν τω οφθαλμω σου;	4 Or how can you say to your brother, ‘Let me take the splinter from your eye,’ while, behold, a board is in your own eye?
5 Υποκριτα, εκβαλε πρωτον την δοκον εκ του οφθαλμου σου, και τοτε θελεις ιδει καθαρως δια να εκβαλης το ξυλαριον εκ του οφθαλμου του αδελφου σου.	5 Hypocrite, first remove the board from your own eye, and then you will see clearly enough to remove the board from your brother’s eye.
6 Μη δωσητε το αγιον εις τους κυνας μηδε ριψητε τους μαργαριτας σας εμπροσθεν των χοιρων, μηποτε καταπατησωσιν αυτους με τους ποδας αυτων και στραφεντες σας διασχισωσιν.	6 Do not give what is holy to dogs, and do not cast your pearls before swine, lest perhaps they may trample them under their feet, and then, turning, they may tear you apart.
7 Αιτειτε, και θελει σας δοθη? ζητειτε, και θελετε ευρει, κρουετε, και θελει σας ανοιχθη.	7 Ask, and it shall be given to you. Seek, and you shall find. Knock, and it shall be opened to you.
8 Διοτι πας ο αιτων λαμβανει και ο ζητων ευρισκει και εις τον κρουοντα θελει ανοιχθη.	8 For everyone who asks, receives; and whoever seeks, finds; and to anyone who knocks, it will be opened.
9 Η τις ανθρωπος ειναι απο σας, οστις εαν ο υιος αυτου ζητηση αρτον, μηπως θελει δωσει εις αυτον λιθον;	9 Or what man is there among you, who, if his son were to ask him for bread, would offer him a stone;
10 και εαν ζητηση οψαριον, μηπως θελει δωσει εις αυτον οφιν;	10 or if he were to ask him for a fish, would offer him a snake?
11 εαν λοιπον σεις, πονηροι οντες, εξευρητε να διδητε καλας δοσεις εις τα τεκνα σας, ποσω μαλλον ο Πατηρ σας ο εν τοις ουρανοις θελει δωσει αγαθα εις τους ζητουντας παρ' αυτου;	11 Therefore, if you, though you are evil, know how to give good gifts to your sons, how much more will your Father, who is in heaven, give good things to those who ask him?
12 Λοιπον παντα οσα αν θελητε να καμνωσιν εις εσας οι ανθρωποι, ουτω και σεις καμνετε εις αυτους? διοτι ουτος ειναι ο νομος και οι προφηται.	12 Therefore, all things whatsoever that you wish that men would do to you, do so also to them. For this is the law and the prophets.
13 Εισελθετε δια της στενης πυλης? διοτι πλατεια ειναι η πυλη και ευρυχωρος η οδος η φερουσα εις την απωλειαν, και πολλοι ειναι οι εισερχομενοι δι' αυτης.	13 Enter through the narrow gate. For wide is the gate, and broad is the way, which leads to perdition, and many there are who enter through it.
14 Επειδη στενη ειναι η πυλη και τεθλιμμενη η οδος η φερουσα εις την ζωην, και ολιγοι ειναι οι ευρισκοντες αυτην.	14 How narrow is the gate, and how straight is the way, which leads to life, and few there are who find it!
15 Προσεχετε δε απο των ψευδοπροφητων, οιτινες ερχονται προς εσας με ενδυματα προβατων, εσωθεν ομως ειναι λυκοι αρπαγες.	15 Beware of false prophets, who come to you in sheep’s clothing, but inwardly are ravenous wolves.
16 Απο των καρπων αυτων θελετε γνωρισει αυτους. Μηποτε συναγουσιν απο ακανθων σταφυλια η απο τριβολων συκα;	16 You shall know them by their fruits. Can grapes be gathered from thorns, or figs from thistles?
17 ουτω παν δενδρον καλον καμνει καλους καρπους, το δε σαπρον δενδρον καμνει κακους καρπους.	17 So then, every good tree produces good fruit, and the evil tree produces evil fruit.
18 Δεν δυναται δενδρον καλον να καμνη καρπους κακους, ουδε δενδρον σαπρον να καμνη καρπους καλους.	18 A good tree is not able to produce evil fruit, and an evil tree is not able to produce good fruit.
19 Παν δενδρον μη καμνον καρπον καλον εκκοπτεται και εις πυρ βαλλεται.	19 Every tree which does not produce good fruit shall be cut down and cast into the fire.
20 Αρα απο των καρπων αυτων θελετε γνωρισει αυτους.	20 Therefore, by their fruits you will know them.
21 Δεν θελει εισελθει εις την βασιλειαν των ουρανων πας ο λεγων προς εμε, Κυριε, Κυριε, αλλ' ο πραττων το θελημα του Πατρος μου του εν τοις ουρανοις.	21 Not all who say to me, ‘Lord, Lord,’ will enter into the kingdom of heaven. But whoever does the will of my Father, who is in heaven, the same shall enter into the kingdom of heaven.
22 Πολλοι θελουσιν ειπει προς εμε εν εκεινη τη ημερα, Κυριε, Κυριε, δεν προεφητευσαμεν εν τω ονοματι σου, και εν τω ονοματι σου εξεβαλομεν δαιμονια, και εν τω ονοματι σου εκαμομεν θαυματα πολλα;	22 Many will say to me in that day, ‘Lord, Lord, did we not prophesy in your name, and cast out demons in your name, and perform many powerful deeds in your name?’
23 Και τοτε θελω ομολογησει προς αυτους οτι ποτε δεν σας εγνωρισα? φευγετε απ' εμου οι εργαζομενοι την ανομιαν.	23 And then will I disclose to them: ‘I have never known you. Depart from me, you workers of iniquity.’
24 Πας λοιπον οστις ακουει τους λογους μου τουτους και καμνει αυτους, θελω ομοιωσει αυτον με ανδρα φρονιμον, οστις ωκοδομησε την οικιαν αυτου επι την πετραν?	24 Therefore, everyone who hears these words of mine and does them shall be compared to a wise man, who built his house upon the rock.
25 και κατεβη η βροχη και ηλθον οι ποταμοι και επνευσαν οι ανεμοι και προσεβαλον εις την οικιαν εκεινην, και δεν επεσε? διοτι ητο τεθεμελιωμενη επι την πετραν.	25 And the rains descended, and the floods rose up, and the winds blew, and rushed upon that house, but it did not fall, for it was founded on the rock.
26 Και πας ο ακουων τους λογους μου τουτους και μη καμνων αυτους θελει ομοιωθη με ανδρα μωρον, οστις ωκοδομησε την οικιαν αυτου επι την αμμον?	26 And everyone who hears these words of mine and does not do them shall be like a foolish man, who built his house upon the sand.
27 και κατεβη η βροχη και ηλθον οι ποταμοι και επνευσαν οι ανεμοι και προσεβαλον εις την οικιαν εκεινην, και επεσε, και ητο η πτωσις αυτης μεγαλη.	27 And the rains descended, and the floods rose up, and the winds blew, and rushed upon that house, and it did fall, and great was its ruin.”
28 Οτε δε ετελειωσεν ο Ιησους τους λογους τουτους, εξεπληττοντο οι οχλοι δια την διδαχην αυτου?	28 And it happened, when Jesus had completed these words, that the crowds were astonished at his doctrine.
29 διοτι εδιδασκεν αυτους ως εχων εξουσιαν, και ουχι ως οι γραμματεις.	29 For he was teaching them as one who has authority, and not like their scribes and Pharisees.
