Vangelo secondo Luca - Luke 24

GREEK BIBLE	NEW JERUSALEM
1 Την δε πρωτην ημεραν της εβδομαδος, ενω ητο ορθρος βαθυς, ηλθον εις το μνημα φερουσαι τα οποια ητοιμασαν αρωματα, και αλλαι τινες μετ' αυτων.	1 On the first day of the week, at the first sign of dawn, they went to the tomb with the spices they hadprepared.
2 Ευρον δε τον λιθον αποκεκυλισμενον απο του μνημειου,	2 They found that the stone had been rol ed away from the tomb,
3 και εισελθουσαι δεν ευρον το σωμα του Κυριου Ιησου.	3 but on entering they could not find the body of the Lord Jesus.
4 Και ενω ησαν εν απορια περι τουτου, ιδου, δυο ανδρες εσταθησαν εμπροσθεν αυτων με ιματια αστραπτοντα.	4 As they stood there puzzled about this, two men in bril iant clothes suddenly appeared at their side.
5 Καθως δε αυται εφοβηθησαν και εκλινον το προσωπον εις την γην, ειπον προς αυτας? Τι ζητειτε τον ζωντα μετα των νεκρων;	5 Terrified, the women bowed their heads to the ground. But the two said to them, 'Why look among thedead for someone who is alive?
6 δεν ειναι εδω, αλλ' ανεστη? ενθυμηθητε πως ελαλησε προς εσας, ενω ητο ετι εν τη Γαλιλαια,	6 He is not here; he has risen. Remember what he told you when he was still in Galilee:
7 λεγων οτι πρεπει ο Υιος του ανθρωπου να παραδοθη εις χειρας ανθρωπων αμαρτωλων και να σταυρωθη και την τριτην ημεραν να αναστηθη.	7 that the Son of man was destined to be handed over into the power of sinful men and be crucified, andrise again on the third day.'
8 Και ενεθυμηθησαν τους λογους αυτου.	8 And they remembered his words.
9 Και αφου υπεστρεψαν απο του μνημειου, απηγγειλαν ταυτα παντα προς τους ενδεκα και παντας τους λοιπους.	9 And they returned from the tomb and told al this to the Eleven and to al the others.
10 Ησαν δε η Μαγδαληνη Μαρια και Ιωαννα και Μαρια η μητηρ του Ιακωβου και αι λοιπαι μετ' αυτων, αιτινες ελεγον ταυτα προς τους αποστολους.	10 The women were Mary of Magdala, Joanna, and Mary the mother of James. And the other womenwith them also told the apostles,
11 Και οι λογοι αυτων εφανησαν ενωπιον αυτων ως φλυαρια, και δεν επιστευον εις αυτας.	11 but this story of theirs seemed pure nonsense, and they did not believe them.
12 Ο δε Πετρος σηκωθεις εδραμεν εις το μνημειον, και παρακυψας βλεπει τα σαβανα κειμενα μονα, και ανεχωρησε, θαυμαζων καθ' εαυτον το γεγονος.	12 Peter, however, went off to the tomb, running. He bent down and looked in and saw the linen clothsbut nothing else; he then went back home, amazed at what had happened.
13 Και ιδου, δυο εξ αυτων επορευοντο εν αυτη τη ημερα εις κωμην ονομαζομενην Εμμαους, απεχουσαν εξηκοντα σταδια απο Ιερουσαλημ.	13 Now that very same day, two of them were on their way to a vil age cal ed Emmaus, seven miles fromJerusalem,
14 Και αυτοι ωμιλουν προς αλληλους περι παντων των συμβεβηκοτων τουτων.	14 and they were talking together about al that had happened.
15 Και ενω ωμιλουν και συνδιελεγοντο, πλησιασας και αυτος ο Ιησους επορευετο μετ' αυτων?	15 And it happened that as they were talking together and discussing it, Jesus himself came up andwalked by their side;
16 αλλ' οι οφθαλμοι αυτων εκρατουντο δια να μη γνωρισωσιν αυτον.	16 but their eyes were prevented from recognising him.
17 Ειπε δε προς αυτους? Τινες ειναι οι λογοι ουτοι, τους οποιους συνομιλειτε προς αλληλους περιπατουντες, και εισθε σκυθρωποι;	17 He said to them, 'What are all these things that you are discussing as you walk along?' They stopped,their faces downcast.
18 Αποκριθεις δε ο εις, ονομαζομενος Κλεοπας, ειπε προς αυτον? Συ μονος παροικεις εν Ιερουσαλημ και δεν εμαθες τα γενομενα εν αυτη εν ταις ημεραις ταυταις;	18 Then one of them, called Cleopas, answered him, 'You must be the only person staying in Jerusalemwho does not know the things that have been happening there these last few days.'
19 Και ειπε προς αυτους? Ποια; Οι δε ειπον προς αυτον? Τα περι Ιησου του Ναζωραιου, οστις εσταθη ανηρ προφητης δυνατος εν εργω και λογω ενωπιον του Θεου και παντος του λαου,	19 He asked, 'What things?' They answered, 'Al about Jesus of Nazareth, who showed himself aprophet powerful in action and speech before God and the whole people;
20 και πως παρεδωκαν αυτον οι αρχιερεις και οι αρχοντες ημων εις καταδικην θανατου και εσταυρωσαν αυτον.	20 and how our chief priests and our leaders handed him over to be sentenced to death, and had himcrucified.
21 ημεις δε ηλπιζομεν οτι αυτος ειναι ο μελλων να λυτρωση τον Ισραηλ? αλλα και προς τουτοις πασι τριτη ημερα ειναι σημερον αυτη, αφου εγειναν ταυτα.	21 Our own hope had been that he would be the one to set Israel free. And this is not al : two whole dayshave now gone by since it al happened;
22 Αλλα και γυναικες τινες εξ ημων εξεπληξαν ημας, αιτινες υπηγον την αυγην εις το μνημειον,	22 and some women from our group have astounded us: they went to the tomb in the early morning,
23 και μη ευρουσαι το σωμα αυτου, ηλθον λεγουσαι οτι ειδον και οπτασιαν αγγελων, οιτινες λεγουσιν οτι αυτος ζη.	23 and when they could not find the body, they came back to tel us they had seen a vision of angelswho declared he was alive.
24 Και τινες των υμετερων υπηγον εις το μνημειον και ευρον ουτω, καθως και αι γυναικες ειπον, αυτον ομως δεν ειδον.	24 Some of our friends went to the tomb and found everything exactly as the women had reported, but ofhim they saw nothing.'
25 Και αυτος ειπε προς αυτους? Ω ανοητοι και βραδεις την καρδιαν εις το να πιστευητε εις παντα οσα ελαλησαν οι προφηται?	25 Then he said to them, 'You foolish men! So slow to believe al that the prophets have said!
26 δεν επρεπε να παθη ταυτα ο Χριστος και να εισελθη εις την δοξαν αυτου;	26 Was it not necessary that the Christ should suffer before entering into his glory?'
27 Και αρχισας απο Μωυσεως και απο παντων των προφητων, διηρμηνευεν εις αυτους τα περι εαυτου γεγραμμενα εν πασαις ταις γραφαις.	27 Then, starting with Moses and going through al the prophets, he explained to them the passagesthroughout the scriptures that were about himself.
28 Και επλησιασαν εις την κωμην οπου επορευοντο, και αυτος προσεποιειτο οτι υπαγει μακροτερα?	28 When they drew near to the vil age to which they were going, he made as if to go on;
29 και παρεβιασαν αυτον, λεγοντες? Μεινον μεθ' ημων, διοτι πλησιαζει η εσπερα και εκλινεν η ημερα. Και εισηλθε δια να μεινη μετ' αυτων.	29 but they pressed him to stay with them saying, 'It is nearly evening, and the day is almost over.' So hewent in to stay with them.
30 Και αφου εκαθησε μετ' αυτων εις την τραπεζαν, λαβων τον αρτον ευλογησε και κοψας εδιδεν εις αυτους.	30 Now while he was with them at table, he took the bread and said the blessing; then he broke it andhanded it to them.
31 Αυτων δε διηνοιχθησαν οι οφθαλμοι, και εγνωρισαν αυτον. Και αυτος εγεινεν αφαντος απ' αυτων.	31 And their eyes were opened and they recognised him; but he had vanished from their sight.
32 Και ειπον προς αλληλους? Δεν εκαιετο εν υμιν η καρδια ημων, οτε ελαλει προς ημας καθ' οδον και μας εξηγει τας γραφας;	32 Then they said to each other, 'Did not our hearts burn within us as he talked to us on the road andexplained the scriptures to us?'
33 Και σηκωθεντες τη αυτη ωρα υπεστρεψαν εις Ιερουσαλημ, και ευρον συνηθροισμενους τους ενδεκα και τους μετ' αυτων,	33 They set out that instant and returned to Jerusalem. There they found the Eleven assembled togetherwith their companions,
34 οιτινες ελεγον οτι οντως ανεστη ο Κυριος και εφανη εις τον Σιμωνα.	34 who said to them, 'The Lord has indeed risen and has appeared to Simon.'
35 Και αυτοι διηγουντο τα εν τη οδω και πως εγνωρισθη εις αυτους, ενω εκοπτε τον αρτον.	35 Then they told their story of what had happened on the road and how they had recognised him at thebreaking of bread.
36 Ενω δε ελαλουν ταυτα, αυτος ο Ιησους εσταθη εν μεσω αυτων και λεγει προς αυτους? Ειρηνη υμιν.	36 They were still talking about al this when he himself stood among them and said to them, 'Peace bewith you!'
37 Εκεινοι δε εκπλαγεντες και εμφοβοι γενομενοι ενομιζον οτι εβλεπον πνευμα.	37 In a state of alarm and fright, they thought they were seeing a ghost.
38 Και ειπε προς αυτους? Δια τι εισθε τεταραγμενοι; και δια τι αναβαινουσιν εις τας καρδιας σας διαλογισμοι;	38 But he said, 'Why are you so agitated, and why are these doubts stirring in your hearts?
39 ιδετε τας χειρας μου και τους ποδας μου, οτι αυτος εγω ειμαι? ψηλαφησατε με και ιδετε, διοτι πνευμα σαρκα και οστεα δεν εχει, καθως εμε θεωρειτε εχοντα.	39 See by my hands and my feet that it is I myself. Touch me and see for yourselves; a ghost has noflesh and bones as you can see I have.'
40 Και τουτο ειπων, εδειξεν εις αυτους τας χειρας και τους ποδας.	40 And as he said this he showed them his hands and his feet.
41 Ενω δε αυτοι ηπιστουν ετι απο της χαρας και εθαυμαζον, ειπε προς αυτους? Εχετε τι φαγωσιμον ενταυθα;	41 Their joy was so great that they stil could not believe it, as they were dumbfounded; so he said tothem, 'Have you anything here to eat?'
42 Οι δε εδωκαν εις αυτον μερος οπτου ιχθυος και απο κηρηθραν μελιτος.	42 And they offered him a piece of gril ed fish,
43 Και λαβων ενωπιον αυτων εφαγεν.	43 which he took and ate before their eyes.
44 Ειπε δε προς αυτους? Ουτοι ειναι οι λογοι, τους οποιους ελαλησα προς υμας οτε ημην ετι μεθ' υμων, οτι πρεπει να πληρωθωσι παντα τα γεγραμμενα εν τω νομω του Μωυσεως και προφηταις και ψαλμοις περι εμου.	44 Then he told them, 'This is what I meant when I said, while I was stil with you, that everything writtenabout me in the Law of Moses, in the Prophets and in the Psalms, was destined to be fulfilled.'
45 Τοτε διηνοιξεν αυτων τον νουν, δια να καταλαβωσι τας γραφας?	45 He then opened their minds to understand the scriptures,
46 και ειπε προς αυτους οτι ουτως ειναι γεγραμμενον και ουτως επρεπε να παθη ο Χριστος και να αναστηθη εκ νεκρων τη τριτη ημερα,	46 and he said to them, 'So it is written that the Christ would suffer and on the third day rise from thedead,
47 και να κηρυχθη εν τω ονοματι αυτου μετανοια και αφεσις αμαρτιων εις παντα τα εθνη, γινομενης αρχης απο Ιερουσαλημ.	47 and that, in his name, repentance for the forgiveness of sins would be preached to al nations,beginning from Jerusalem.
48 Σεις δε εισθε μαρτυρες τουτων.	48 You are witnesses to this.
49 Και ιδου, εγω αποστελλω την επαγγελιαν του Πατρος μου εφ' υμας? σεις δε καθησατε εν τη πολει Ιερουσαλημ εωσου ενδυθητε δυναμιν εξ υψους.	49 'And now I am sending upon you what the Father has promised. Stay in the city, then, until you areclothed with the power from on high.'
50 Και εφερεν αυτους εξω εως εις Βηθανιαν, και υψωσας τας χειρας αυτου ευλογησεν αυτους.	50 Then he took them out as far as the outskirts of Bethany, and raising his hands he blessed them.
51 Και ενω ευλογει αυτους, απεχωρισθη απ' αυτων και ανεφερετο εις τον ουρανον.	51 Now as he blessed them, he withdrew from them and was carried up to heaven.
52 Και αυτοι προσκυνησαντες αυτον, υπεστρεψαν εις Ιερουσαλημ μετα χαρας μεγαλης,	52 They worshipped him and then went back to Jerusalem ful of joy;
53 και ησαν διαπαντος εν τω ιερω, αινουντες και ευλογουντες τον Θεον. Αμην.	53 and they were continually in the Temple praising God.
