Vangelo secondo Matteo - Matthew 4

GREEK BIBLE	NEW JERUSALEM
1 Τοτε ο Ιησους εφερθη υπο του Πνευματος εις την ερημον δια να πειρασθη υπο του διαβολου,	1 Then Jesus was led by the Spirit out into the desert to be put to the test by the devil.
2 και νηστευσας ημερας τεσσαρακοντα και νυκτας τεσσαρακοντα, υστερον επεινασε.	2 He fasted for forty days and forty nights, after which he was hungry,
3 Και ελθων προς αυτον ο πειραζων ειπεν? Εαν ησαι Υιος του Θεου, ειπε να γεινωσιν αρτοι οι λιθοι ουτοι.	3 and the tester came and said to him, 'If you are Son of God, tel these stones to turn into loaves.'
4 Ο δε αποκριθεις ειπεν? Ειναι γεγραμμενον, Με αρτον μονον δεν θελει ζησει ο ανθρωπος, αλλα με παντα λογον εξερχομενον δια στοματος Θεου.	4 But he replied, 'Scripture says: Human beings live not on bread alone but on every word that comesfrom the mouth of God.'
5 Τοτε παραλαμβανει αυτον ο διαβολος εις την αγιαν πολιν και στηνει αυτον επι το πτερυγιον του ιερου	5 The devil then took him to the holy city and set him on the parapet of the Temple.
6 και λεγει προς αυτον, Εαν ησαι Υιος του Θεου, ριψον σεαυτον κατω? διοτι ειναι γεγραμμενον, Οτι θελει προσταξει εις τους αγγελους αυτου περι σου, και θελουσι σε σηκωνει επι των χειρων αυτων, δια να μη προσκοψης προς λιθον τον ποδα σου.	6 'If you are Son of God,' he said, 'throw yourself down; for scripture says: He has given his angels ordersabout you, and they will carry you in their arms in case you trip over a stone.'
7 Ειπε προς αυτον ο Ιησους? Παλιν ειναι γεγραμμενον, δεν θελεις πειρασει Κυριον τον Θεον σου.	7 Jesus said to him, 'Scripture also says: Do not put the Lord your God to the test.'
8 Παλιν παραλαμβανει αυτον ο διαβολος εις ορος πολυ υψηλον, και δεικνυει εις αυτον παντα τα βασιλεια του κοσμου και την δοξαν αυτων,	8 Next, taking him to a very high mountain, the devil showed him al the kingdoms of the world and theirsplendour.
9 και λεγει προς αυτον? Ταυτα παντα θελω σοι δωσει, εαν πεσων προσκυνησης με.	9 And he said to him, 'I wil give you al these, if you fal at my feet and do me homage.'
10 Τοτε ο Ιησους λεγει προς αυτον? Υπαγε, Σατανα? διοτι ειναι γεγραμμενον, Κυριον τον Θεον σου θελεις προσκυνησει και αυτον μονον θελεις λατρευσει.	10 Then Jesus replied, 'Away with you, Satan! For scripture says: The Lord your God is the one to whomyou must do homage, him alone you must serve.'
11 Τοτε αφινει αυτον ο διαβολος, και ιδου, αγγελοι προσηλθον και υπηρετουν αυτον.	11 Then the devil left him, and suddenly angels appeared and looked after him.
12 Ακουσας δε ο Ιησους οτι ο Ιωαννης παρεδοθη, ανεχωρησεν εις την Γαλιλαιαν.	12 Hearing that John had been arrested he withdrew to Galilee,
13 Και αφησας την Ναζαρετ ηλθε και κατωκησεν εις Καπερναουμ την παραθαλασσιαν εν τοις οριοις Ζαβουλων και Νεφθαλειμ.	13 and leaving Nazara he went and settled in Capernaum, beside the lake, on the borders of Zebulun andNaphtali.
14 Δια να πληρωθη το ρηθεν δια Ησαιου του προφητου λεγοντος?	14 This was to fulfil what was spoken by the prophet Isaiah:
15 Γη Ζαβουλων και γη Νεφθαλειμ, κατα την οδον της θαλασσης, περαν του Ιορδανου, Γαλιλαια των εθνων.	15 Land of Zebulun! Land of Naphtali! Way of the sea beyond Jordan. Galilee of the nations!
16 Ο λαος ο καθημενος εν σκοτει ειδε φως μεγα, και εις τους καθημενους εν τοπω και σκια θανατου φως ανετειλεν εις αυτους.	16 The people that lived in darkness have seen a great light; on those who lived in a country of shadowdark as death a light has dawned.
17 Απο τοτε ηρχισεν ο Ιησους να κηρυττη και να λεγη? Μετανοειτε διοτι επλησιασεν η βασιλεια των ουρανων.	17 From then onwards Jesus began his proclamation with the message, 'Repent, for the kingdom ofHeaven is close at hand.'
18 Περιπατων δε ο Ιησους παρα την θαλασσαν της Γαλιλαιας, ειδε δυο αδελφους, Σιμωνα τον λεγομενον Πετρον και Ανδρεαν τον αδελφον αυτου, ριπτοντας δικτυον εις την θαλασσαν? διοτι ησαν αλιεις?	18 As he was walking by the Lake of Galilee he saw two brothers, Simon, who was cal ed Peter, and hisbrother Andrew; they were making a cast into the lake with their net, for they were fishermen.
19 και λεγει προς αυτους? Ελθετε οπισω μου και θελω σας καμει αλιεις ανθρωπων.	19 And he said to them, 'Come after me and I wil make you fishers of people.'
20 Οι δε αφησαντες ευθυς τα δικτυα, ηκολουθησαν αυτον.	20 And at once they left their nets and followed him.
21 Και προχωρησας εκειθεν ειδεν αλλους δυο αδελφους, Ιακωβον τον του Ζεβεδαιου και Ιωαννην τον αδελφον αυτου, εν τω πλοιω μετα Ζεβεδαιου του πατρος αυτων επισκευαζοντας τα δικτυα αυτων, και εκαλεσεν αυτους.	21 Going on from there he saw another pair of brothers, James son of Zebedee and his brother John;they were in their boat with their father Zebedee, mending their nets, and he cal ed them.
22 Οι δε αφησαντες ευθυς το πλοιον και τον πατερα αυτων, ηκολουθησαν αυτον.	22 And at once, leaving the boat and their father, they fol owed him.
23 Και περιηρχετο ο Ιησους ολην την Γαλιλαιαν, διδασκων εν ταις συναγωγαις αυτων και κηρυττων το ευαγγελιον της βασιλειας και θεραπευων πασαν νοσον και πασαν ασθενειαν μεταξυ του λαου.	23 He went round the whole of Galilee teaching in their synagogues, proclaiming the good news of thekingdom and curing al kinds of disease and il ness among the people.
24 Και διηλθεν η φημη αυτου εις ολην την Συριαν, και εφερον προς αυτον παντας τους κακως εχοντας υπο διαφορων νοσηματων και βασανων συνεχομενους και δαιμονιζομενους και σεληνιαζομενους και παραλυτικους, και εθεραπευσεν αυτους?	24 His fame spread throughout Syria, and those who were suffering from diseases and painful complaintsof one kind or another, the possessed, epileptics, the paralysed, were all brought to him, and he cured them.
25 και ηκολουθησαν αυτον οχλοι πολλοι απο της Γαλιλαιας και Δεκαπολεως και Ιεροσολυμων και Ιουδαιας και απο περαν του Ιορδανου.	25 Large crowds fol owed him, coming from Galilee, the Decapolis, Jerusalem, Judaea and Transjordan.
