Vangelo secondo Giovanni - John 8

GREEK BIBLE	NEW AMERICAN BIBLE
1 Ο δε Ιησους υπηγεν εις το ορος των Ελαιων.	1 while Jesus went to the Mount of Olives.
2 Και την αυγην ηλθε παλιν εις το ιερον, και πας ο λαος ηρχετο προς αυτον? και καθησας εδιδασκεν αυτους.	2 But early in the morning he arrived again in the temple area, and all the people started coming to him, and he sat down and taught them.
3 Φερουσι δε προς αυτον οι γραμματεις και οι Φαρισαιοι γυναικα συλληφθεισαν επι μοιχεια, και στησαντες αυτην εν τω μεσω,	3 Then the scribes and the Pharisees brought a woman who had been caught in adultery and made her stand in the middle.
4 λεγουσι προς αυτον? Διδασκαλε, αυτη η γυνη συνεληφθη επ' αυτοφωρω μοιχευομενη.	4 They said to him, "Teacher, this woman was caught in the very act of committing adultery.
5 Εν δε τω νομω ο Μωυσης προσεταξεν ημας να λιθοβολωνται αι τοιαυται? συ λοιπον τι λεγεις;	5 Now in the law, Moses commanded us to stone such women. So what do you say?"
6 Ελεγον δε τουτο δοκιμαζοντες αυτον, δια να εχωσι ινα κατηγορωσιν αυτον. Ο δε Ιησους κυψας κατω, εγραφε δια του δακτυλου εις την γην.	6 They said this to test him, so that they could have some charge to bring against him. Jesus bent down and began to write on the ground with his finger.
7 Και επειδη επεμενον ερωτωντες αυτον, ανακυψας ειπε προς αυτους? Οστις απο σας ειναι αναμαρτητος, πρωτος ας ριψη τον λιθον επ' αυτην.	7 But when they continued asking him, he straightened up and said to them, "Let the one among you who is without sin be the first to throw a stone at her."
8 Και παλιν κυψας κατω εγραφεν εις την γην.	8 Again he bent down and wrote on the ground.
9 Εκεινοι δε ακουσαντες, εξηρχοντο εις εκαστος, αρχισαντες απο των πρεσβυτερων εως των εσχατων? και εμεινε μονος ο Ιησους και η γυνη ισταμενη εν τω μεσω.	9 And in response, they went away one by one, beginning with the elders. So he was left alone with the woman before him.
10 Ανακυψας δε ο Ιησους, ειπε προς αυτην? Γυναι, που ειναι εκεινοι οι κατηγοροι σου; δεν σε κατεδικασεν ουδεις;	10 Then Jesus straightened up and said to her, "Woman, where are they? Has no one condemned you?"
11 Και εκεινη ειπεν? Ουδεις, Κυριε. Και ο Ιησους ειπε προς αυτην? Ουδε εγω σε καταδικαζω? υπαγε, και εις το εξης μη αμαρτανε.	11 She replied, "No one, sir." Then Jesus said, "Neither do I condemn you. Go, (and) from now on do not sin any more."
12 Παλιν λοιπον ο Ιησους ελαλησε προς αυτους λεγων? Εγω ειμαι το φως του κοσμου? οστις ακολουθει εμε δεν θελει περιπατησει εις το σκοτος, αλλα θελει εχει το φως της ζωης.	12 Jesus spoke to them again, saying, "I am the light of the world. Whoever follows me will not walk in darkness, but will have the light of life."
13 Ειπον λοιπον προς αυτον οι Φαρισαιοι? Συ περι σεαυτου μαρτυρεις? η μαρτυρια σου δεν ειναι αληθης.	13 So the Pharisees said to him, "You testify on your own behalf, so your testimony cannot be verified."
14 Απεκριθη ο Ιησους και ειπε προς αυτους? Και αν εγω μαρτυρω περι εμαυτου, η μαρτυρια μου ειναι αληθης, διοτι εξευρω ποθεν ηλθον και που υπαγω? σεις ομως δεν εξευρετε ποθεν ερχομαι και που υπαγω.	14 Jesus answered and said to them, "Even if I do testify on my own behalf, my testimony can be verified, because I know where I came from and where I am going. But you do not know where I come from or where I am going.
15 Σεις κατα την σαρκα κρινετε? εγω δεν κρινω ουδενα.	15 You judge by appearances, but I do not judge anyone.
16 Αλλα και εαν εγω κρινω, η κρισις η εμη ειναι αληθης, διοτι μονος δεν ειμαι, αλλ' εγω και ο Πατηρ ο πεμψας με.	16 And even if I should judge, my judgment is valid, because I am not alone, but it is I and the Father who sent me.
17 Και εν τω νομω δε υμων ειναι γεγραμμενον οτι δυο ανθρωπων η μαρτυρια ειναι αληθινη.	17 Even in your law it is written that the testimony of two men can be verified.
18 Εγω ειμαι ο μαρτυρων περι εμαυτου, και ο πεμψας με Πατηρ μαρτυρει περι εμου.	18 I testify on my behalf and so does the Father who sent me."
19 Ελεγον λοιπον προς αυτον? Που ειναι ο Πατηρ σου; Απεκριθη ο Ιησους? Ουτε εμε εξευρετε ουτε τον Πατερα μου? εαν ηξευρετε εμε, ηθελετε εξευρει και τον Πατερα μου.	19 So they said to him, "Where is your father?" Jesus answered, "You know neither me nor my Father. If you knew me, you would know my Father also."
20 Τουτους τους λογους ελαλησεν ο Ιησους εν τω θησαυροφυλακιω, διδασκων εν τω ιερω, και ουδεις επιασεν αυτον, διοτι δεν ειχεν ελθει ετι η ωρα αυτου.	20 He spoke these words while teaching in the treasury in the temple area. But no one arrested him, because his hour had not yet come.
21 Ειπε λοιπον παλιν προς αυτους ο Ιησους? Εγω υπαγω και θελετε με ζητησει, και θελετε αποθανει εν τη αμαρτια υμων? οπου εγω υπαγω, σεις δεν δυνασθε να ελθητε.	21 He said to them again, "I am going away and you will look for me, but you will die in your sin. Where I am going you cannot come."
22 Ελεγον λοιπον οι Ιουδαιοι? Μηπως θελει θανατωσει εαυτον, και δια τουτο λεγει, Οπου εγω υπαγω, σεις δεν δυνασθε να ελθητε;	22 So the Jews said, "He is not going to kill himself, is he, because he said, 'Where I am going you cannot come'?"
23 Και ειπε προς αυτους? Σεις εισθε εκ των κατω, εγω ειμαι εκ των ανω? σεις εισθε εκ του κοσμου τουτου, εγω δεν ειμαι εκ του κοσμου τουτου.	23 He said to them, "You belong to what is below, I belong to what is above. You belong to this world, but I do not belong to this world.
24 Σας ειπον λοιπον οτι θελετε αποθανει εν ταις αμαρτιαις υμων? διοτι εαν δεν πιστευσητε οτι εγω ειμαι, θελετε αποθανει εν ταις αμαρτιαις υμων.	24 That is why I told you that you will die in your sins. For if you do not believe that I AM, you will die in your sins."
25 Ελεγον λοιπον προς αυτον? Συ τις εισαι; και ειπε προς αυτους ο Ιησους? Ο, τι σας λεγω απ' αρχης.	25 So they said to him, "Who are you?" Jesus said to them, "What I told you from the beginning.
26 Πολλα εχω να λεγω και να κρινω περι υμων? αλλ' ο πεμψας με ειναι αληθης, και εγω οσα ηκουσα παρ' αυτου, ταυτα λεγω εις τον κοσμον.	26 I have much to say about you in condemnation. But the one who sent me is true, and what I heard from him I tell the world."
27 δεν ενοησαν οτι ελεγε προς αυτους περι του Πατρος.	27 They did not realize that he was speaking to them of the Father.
28 Ειπε λοιπον προς αυτους ο Ιησους? Οταν υψωσητε τον Υιον του ανθρωπου, τοτε θελετε γνωρισει οτι εγω ειμαι, και απ' εμαυτου δεν καμνω ουδεν, αλλα καθως με εδιδαξεν ο Πατηρ μου, ταυτα λαλω.	28 So Jesus said (to them), "When you lift up the Son of Man, then you will realize that I AM, and that I do nothing on my own, but I say only what the Father taught me.
29 Και ο πεμψας με ειναι μετ' εμου? δεν με αφηκεν ο Πατηρ μονον, διοτι εγω καμνω παντοτε τα αρεστα εις αυτον.	29 The one who sent me is with me. He has not left me alone, because I always do what is pleasing to him."
30 Ενω ελαλει ταυτα, πολλοι επιστευσαν εις αυτον.	30 Because he spoke this way, many came to believe in him.
31 Ελεγε λοιπον ο Ιησους προς τους Ιουδαιους τους πιστευσαντας εις αυτον? Εαν σεις μεινητε εν τω λογω τω εμω, εισθε αληθως μαθηται μου,	31 Jesus then said to those Jews who believed in him, "If you remain in my word, you will truly be my disciples,
32 και θελετε γνωρισει την αληθειαν, και η αληθεια θελει σας ελευθερωσει.	32 and you will know the truth, and the truth will set you free."
33 Απεκριθησαν προς αυτον? Σπερμα του Αβρααμ ειμεθα, και δεν εγειναμεν δουλοι εις ουδενα πωποτε? πως συ λεγεις οτι θελετε γεινει ελευθεροι;	33 They answered him, "We are descendants of Abraham and have never been enslaved to anyone. How can you say, 'You will become free'?"
34 Απεκριθη προς αυτους ο Ιησους? Αληθως, αληθως σας λεγω οτι πας οστις πραττει την αμαρτιαν δουλος ειναι της αμαρτιας.	34 Jesus answered them, "Amen, amen, I say to you, everyone who commits sin is a slave of sin.
35 Ο δε δουλος δεν μενει παντοτε εν τη οικια? ο υιος μενει παντοτε.	35 A slave does not remain in a household forever, but a son always remains.
36 Εαν λοιπον ο Υιος σας ελευθερωση, οντως ελευθεροι θελετε εισθαι.	36 So if a son frees you, then you will truly be free.
37 Εξευρω οτι εισθε σπερμα του Αβρααμ? αλλα ζητειτε να με θανατωσητε, διοτι ο λογος ο εμος δεν χωρει εις εσας.	37 I know that you are descendants of Abraham. But you are trying to kill me, because my word has no room among you.
38 Εγω λαλω ο, τι ειδον πλησιον του Πατρος μου? και σεις ομοιως καμνετε ο, τι ειδετε πλησιον του πατρος σας.	38 I tell you what I have seen in the Father's presence; then do what you have heard from the Father."
39 Απεκριθησαν και ειπον προς αυτον? Ο πατηρ ημων ειναι ο Αβρααμ. Λεγει προς αυτους ο Ιησους? Εαν ησθε τεκνα του Αβρααμ, τα εργα του Αβρααμ ηθελετε καμνει.	39 They answered and said to him, "Our father is Abraham." Jesus said to them, "If you were Abraham's children, you would be doing the works of Abraham.
40 Τωρα δε ζητειτε να με θανατωσητε, ανθρωπον οστις σας ελαλησα την αληθειαν, την οποιαν ηκουσα παρα του Θεου? τουτο ο Αβρααμ δεν εκαμε.	40 But now you are trying to kill me, a man who has told you the truth that I heard from God; Abraham did not do this.
41 Σεις καμνετε τα εργα του πατρος σας. Ειπον λοιπον προς αυτον? ημεις δεν εγεννηθημεν εκ πορνειας? ενα Πατερα εχομεν, τον Θεον.	41 You are doing the works of your father!" (So) they said to him, "We are not illegitimate. We have one Father, God."
42 Ειπε λοιπον προς αυτους ο Ιησους? Εαν ο Θεος ητο Πατηρ σας, ηθελετε αγαπα εμε? διοτι εγω εκ του Θεου εξηλθον και ερχομαι? επειδη δεν ηλθον απ' εμαυτου, αλλ' εκεινος με απεστειλε.	42 Jesus said to them, "If God were your Father, you would love me, for I came from God and am here; I did not come on my own, but he sent me.
43 Δια τι δεν γνωριζετε την λαλιαν μου; διοτι δεν δυνασθε να ακουητε τον λογον μου.	43 Why do you not understand what I am saying? Because you cannot bear to hear my word.
44 Σεις εισθε εκ πατρος του διαβολου και τας επιθυμιας του πατρος σας θελετε να πραττητε. Εκεινος ητο απ' αρχης ανθρωποκτονος και δεν μενει εν τη αληθεια, διοτι αληθεια δεν υπαρχει εν αυτω? οταν λαλη το ψευδος, εκ των ιδιων λαλει, διοτι ειναι ψευστης και ο πατηρ αυτου του ψευδους.	44 You belong to your father the devil and you willingly carry out your father's desires. He was a murderer from the beginning and does not stand in truth, because there is no truth in him. When he tells a lie, he speaks in character, because he is a liar and the father of lies.
45 Εγω δε διοτι λεγω την αληθειαν, δεν με πιστευετε.	45 But because I speak the truth, you do not believe me.
46 Τις απο σας με ελεγχει περι αμαρτιας; εαν δε αληθειαν λεγω, δια τι σεις δεν με πιστευετε;	46 Can any of you charge me with sin? If I am telling the truth, why do you not believe me?
47 Οστις ειναι εκ του Θεου, τους λογους του Θεου ακουει? δια τουτο σεις δεν ακουετε, διοτι εκ του Θεου δεν εισθε.	47 Whoever belongs to God hears the words of God; for this reason you do not listen, because you do not belong to God."
48 Απεκριθησαν λοιπον οι Ιουδαιοι και ειπον προς αυτον? Δεν λεγομεν ημεις καλως οτι Σαμαρειτης εισαι συ και δαιμονιον εχεις;	48 The Jews answered and said to him, "Are we not right in saying that you are a Samaritan and are possessed?"
49 Απεκριθη ο Ιησους? Εγω δαιμονιον δεν εχω, αλλα τιμω τον Πατερα μου, και σεις με ατιμαζετε.	49 Jesus answered, "I am not possessed; I honor my Father, but you dishonor me.
50 Και εγω δεν ζητω την δοξαν μου? υπαρχει ο ζητων και κρινων.	50 I do not seek my own glory; there is one who seeks it and he is the one who judges.
51 Αληθως, αληθως σας λεγω? Εαν τις φυλαξη τον λογον μου, θανατον δεν θελει ιδει εις τον αιωνα.	51 Amen, amen, I say to you, whoever keeps my word will never see death."
52 Ειπον λοιπον προς αυτον οι Ιουδαιοι? Τωρα κατελαβομεν οτι δαιμονιον εχεις. Ο Αβρααμ απεθανε και οι προφηται, και συ λεγεις? Εαν τις φυλαξη τον λογον μου, δεν θελει γευθη θανατον εις τον αιωνα.	52 (So) the Jews said to him, "Now we are sure that you are possessed. Abraham died, as did the prophets, yet you say, 'Whoever keeps my word will never taste death.'
53 Μηπως συ εισαι μεγαλητερος του πατρος ημων Αβρααμ, οστις απεθανε; και οι προφηται απεθανον? συ τινα καμνεις σεαυτον;	53 Are you greater than our father Abraham, who died? Or the prophets, who died? Who do you make yourself out to be?"
54 Απεκριθη ο Ιησους? Εαν εγω δοξαζω εμαυτον, η δοξα μου ειναι ουδεν? ο Πατηρ μου ειναι οστις με δοξαζει, τον οποιον σεις λεγετε οτι ειναι Θεος σας.	54 Jesus answered, "If I glorify myself, my glory is worth nothing; but it is my Father who glorifies me, of whom you say, 'He is our God.'
55 Και δεν εγνωρισατε αυτον εγω ομως γνωριζω αυτον? και εαν ειπω οτι δεν γνωριζω αυτον, θελω εισθαι ομοιος σας ψευστης? αλλα γνωριζω αυτον και τον λογον αυτου φυλαττω.	55 You do not know him, but I know him. And if I should say that I do not know him, I would be like you a liar. But I do know him and I keep his word.
56 Ο Αβρααμ ο πατηρ σας ειχεν αγαλλιασιν να ιδη την ημεραν την εμην και ειδε και εχαρη.	56 Abraham your father rejoiced to see my day; he saw it and was glad.
57 Ειπον λοιπον οι Ιουδαιοι προς αυτον? Πεντηκοντα ετη δεν εχεις ετι, και ειδες τον Αβρααμ;	57 So the Jews said to him, "You are not yet fifty years old and you have seen Abraham?"
58 Ειπε προς αυτους ο Ιησους? Αληθως, αληθως σας λεγω? Πριν γεινη ο Αβρααμ, εγω ειμαι.	58 Jesus said to them, "Amen, amen, I say to you, before Abraham came to be, I AM."
59 Εσηκωσαν λοιπον λιθους δια να ριψωσι κατ' αυτου? πλην ο Ιησους εκρυβη και εξηλθεν εκ του ιερου περασας δια μεσον αυτων, και ουτως ανεχωρησε.	59 So they picked up stones to throw at him; but Jesus hid and went out of the temple area.
