1 Ελεγε δε και παραβολην προς αυτους περι του οτι πρεπει παντοτε να προσευχωνται και να μη αποκαμνωσι, | 1 And he spoke also a parable to them, that we ought always to pray, and not to faint, |
2 λεγων? Κριτης τις ητο εν τινι πολει, οστις τον Θεον δεν εφοβειτο και ανθρωπον δεν εντρεπετο. | 2 Saying: There was a judge in a certain city, who feared not God, nor regarded man. |
3 Ητο δε χηρα τις εν εκεινη τη πολει και ηρχετο προς αυτον, λεγουσα? Εκδικησον με απο του αντιδικου μου. | 3 And there was a certain widow in that city, and she came to him, saying: Avenge me of my adversary. |
4 Και μεχρι τινος δεν ηθελησε? μετα δε ταυτα ειπε καθ' εαυτον? Αν και τον Θεον δεν φοβωμαι και ανθρωπον δεν εντρεπωμαι, | 4 And he would not for a long time. But afterwards he said within himself: Although I fear not God, nor regard man, |
5 τουλαχιστον επειδη με ενοχλει η χηρα αυτη, ας εκδικησω αυτην, δια να μη ερχηται παντοτε και με βασανιζη. | 5 Yet because this widow is troublesome to me, I will avenge her, lest continually coming she weary me. |
6 Και ειπεν ο Κυριος? Ακουσατε τι λεγει ο αδικος κριτης? | 6 And the Lord said: Hear what the unjust judge saith. |
7 ο δε Θεος δεν θελει καμει την εκδικησιν των εκλεκτων αυτου των βοωντων προς αυτον ημεραν και νυκτα, αν και μακροθυμη δι' αυτους; | 7 And will not God revenge his elect who cry to him day and night: and will he have patience in their regard? |
8 σας λεγω οτι θελει καμει την εκδικησιν αυτων ταχεως. Πλην ο Υιος του ανθρωπου, οταν ελθη, αρα γε θελει ευρει την πιστιν επι της γης; | 8 I say to you, that he will quickly revenge them. But yet the Son of man, when he cometh, shall he find, think you, faith on earth? |
9 Ειπε δε και προς τινας, τους θαρρουντας εις εαυτους οτι ειναι δικαιοι και καταφρονουντας τους λοιπους, την παραβολην ταυτην? | 9 And to some who trusted in themselves as just, and despised others, he spoke also this parable: |
10 Ανθρωποι δυο ανεβησαν εις το ιερον δια να προσευχηθωσιν, ο εις Φαρισαιος και ο αλλος τελωνης. | 10 Two men went up into the temple to pray: the one a Pharisee, and the other a publican. |
11 Ο Φαρισαιος σταθεις προσηυχετο καθ' εαυτον ταυτα? Ευχαριστω σοι, Θεε, οτι δεν ειμαι καθως οι λοιποι ανθρωποι, αρπαγες, αδικοι, μοιχοι, η και καθως ουτος ο τελωνης? | 11 The Pharisee standing, prayed thus with himself: O God, I give thee thanks that I am not as the rest of men, extortioners, unjust, adulterers, as also is this publican. |
12 νηστευω δις της εβδομαδος, αποδεκατιζω παντα οσα εχω. | 12 I fast twice in a week: I give tithes of all that I possess. |
13 Και ο τελωνης μακροθεν ισταμενος, δεν ηθελεν ουδε τους οφθαλμους να υψωση εις τον ουρανον, αλλ' ετυπτεν εις το στηθος αυτου, λεγων? Ο Θεος, ιλασθητι μοι τω αμαρτωλω. | 13 And the publican, standing afar off, would not so much as lift up his eyes towards heaven; but struck his breast, saying: O god, be merciful to me a sinner. |
14 Σας λεγω, Κατεβη ουτος εις τον οικον αυτου δεδικαιωμενος μαλλον παρα εκεινος? διοτι πας ο υψων εαυτον θελει ταπεινωθη, ο δε ταπεινων εαυτον θελει υψωθη. | 14 I say to you, this man went down into his house justified rather that the other: because every one that exalteth himself, shall be humbled: and he that humbleth himself, shall be exalted. |
15 Εφερον δε προς αυτον και τα βρεφη, δια να εγγιζη αυτα? ιδοντες δε οι μαθηται, επεπληξαν αυτους. | 15 And they brought unto him also infants, that he might touch them. Which when the disciples saw, they rebuked them. |
16 Ο Ιησους ομως προσκαλεσας αυτα, ειπεν? Αφησατε τα παιδια να ερχωνται προς εμε, και μη εμποδιζετε αυτα? διοτι των τοιουτων ειναι η βασιλεια του Θεου. | 16 But Jesus, calling them together, said: Suffer children to come to me, and forbid them not: for of such is the kingdom of God. |
17 Αληθως σας λεγω, Οστις δεν δεχθη την βασιλειαν του Θεου ως παιδιον, δεν θελει εισελθει εις αυτην. | 17 Amen, I say to you: Whosoever shall not receive the kingdom of God as a child, shall not enter into it. |
18 Και αρχων τις ηρωτησεν αυτον λεγων? Διδασκαλε αγαθε, τι να πραξω δια να κληρονομησω ζωην αιωνιον; | 18 And a certain ruler asked him, saying: Good master, what shall I do to possess everlasting life? |
19 Και ο Ιησους ειπε προς αυτον? Τι με λεγεις αγαθον; ουδεις αγαθος ειμη εις ο Θεος. | 19 And Jesus said to him: Why dost thou call me good? None is good but God alone. |
20 Τας εντολας εξευρεις? Μη μοιχευσης, Μη φονευσης, Μη κλεψης, Μη ψευδομαρτυρησης, Τιμα τον πατερα σου και την μητερα σου. | 20 Thou knowest the commandments: Thou shalt not kill: Thou shalt not commit adultery: Thou shalt not steal: Thou shalt not bear false witness: Honour thy father and mother. |
21 Ο δε ειπε? Ταυτα παντα εφυλαξα εκ νεοτητος μου. | 21 Who said: All these things have I kept from my youth. |
22 Ακουσας δε ταυτα ο Ιησους, ειπε προς αυτον? Ετι εν σοι λειπει? παντα οσα εχεις πωλησον και διαμοιρασον εις πτωχους, και θελεις εχει θησαυρον εν ουρανω, και ελθε, ακολουθει μοι. | 22 Which when Jesus had heard, he said to him: Yet one thing is wanting to thee: sell all whatever thou hast, and give to the poor, and thou shalt have treasure in heaven: and come, follow me. |
23 Ο δε ακουσας ταυτα εγεινε περιλυπος διοτι ητο πλουσιος σφοδρα. | 23 He having heard these things, became sorrowful; for he was very rich. |
24 Ιδων δε αυτον ο Ιησους περιλυπον γενομενον, ειπε? Πως δυσκολως θελουσιν εισελθει εις την βασιλειαν του Θεου οι εχοντες τα χρηματα? | 24 And Jesus seeing him become sorrowful, said: How hardly shall they that have riches enter into the kingdom of God. |
25 διοτι ευκολωτερον ειναι να περαση καμηλος δια τρυπης βελονης, παρα πλουσιος να εισελθη εις την βασιλειαν του Θεου. | 25 For it is easier for a camel to pass through the eye of a needle, than for a rich man to enter into the kingdom of God. |
26 Ειπον δε οι ακουσαντες? Και τις δυναται να σωθη; | 26 And they that heard it, said: Who then can be saved? |
27 Ο δε ειπε? Τα αδυνατα παρα ανθρωποις ειναι δυνατα παρα τω Θεω. | 27 He said to them: The things that are impossible with men, are possible with God. |
28 Ειπε δε ο Πετρος? Ιδου, ημεις αφηκαμεν παντα και σε ηκολουθησαμεν. | 28 Then Peter said: Behold, we have left all things, and have followed thee. |
29 Ο δε ειπε προς αυτους? Αληθως σας λεγω οτι δεν ειναι ουδεις, οστις αφηκεν οικιαν η γονεις η αδελφους η γυναικα η τεκνα ενεκεν της βασιλειας του Θεου, | 29 Who said to them: Amen, I say to you, there is no man that hath left house, or parents, or brethren, or wife, or children, for the kingdom of God's sake, |
30 οστις δεν θελει απολαυσει πολλαπλασια εν τω καιρω τουτω και εν τω ερχομενω αιωνι ζωην αιωνιον. | 30 Who shall not receive much more in this present time, and in the world to come life everlasting. |
31 Παραλαβων δε τους δωδεκα, ειπε προς αυτους? Ιδου, αναβαινομεν εις Ιεροσολυμα, και θελουσιν εκτελεσθη παντα τα γεγραμμενα δια των προφητων εις τον Υιον του ανθρωπου. | 31 Then Jesus took unto him the twelve, and said to them: Behold, we go up to Jerusalem, and all things shall be accomplished which were written by the prophets concerning the Son of man. |
32 Διοτι θελει παραδοθη εις τα εθνη και θελει εμπαιχθη και υβρισθη και εμπτυσθη, | 32 For he shall be delivered to the Gentiles, and shall be mocked, and scourged, and spit upon: |
33 και μαστιγωσαντες θελουσι θανατωσει αυτον, και τη τριτη ημερα θελει αναστηθη. | 33 And after they have scourged him, they will put him to death; and the third day he shall rise again. |
34 Και αυτοι δεν ενοησαν ουδεν εκ τουτων, και ητο ο λογος ουτος κεκρυμμενος απ' αυτων, και δεν ενοουν τα λεγομενα. | 34 And they understood none of these things, and this word was hid from them, and they understood not the things that were said. |
35 Οτε δε επλησιαζεν εις την Ιεριχω, τυφλος τις εκαθητο παρα την οδον ζητων? | 35 Now it came to pass, when he drew nigh to Jericho, that a certain blind man sat by the way side, begging. |
36 ακουσας δε οχλον διαβαινοντα, ηρωτα τι ειναι τουτο. | 36 And when he heard the multitude passing by, he asked what this meant. |
37 Απηγγειλαν δε προς αυτον οτι Ιησους ο Ναζωραιος διαβαινει. | 37 And they told him, that Jesus of Nazareth was passing by. |
38 Και εφωναξε λεγων? Ιησου, υιε του Δαβιδ, ελεησον με. | 38 And he cried out, saying: Jesus, son of David, have mercy on me. |
39 Και οι προπορευομενοι επεπληττον αυτον δια να σιωπηση? αλλ' αυτος πολλω μαλλον εκραζεν? Υιε του Δαβιδ, ελεησον με. | 39 And they that went before, rebuked him, that he should hold his peace: but he cried out much more: Son of David, have mercy on me. |
40 Σταθεις δε ο Ιησους, προσεταξε να φερθη προς αυτον. Και αφου επλησιασεν, ηρωτησεν αυτον | 40 And Jesus standing, commanded him to be brought unto him. And when he was come near, he asked him, |
41 λεγων? Τι θελεις να σοι καμω; Ο δε ειπε? Κυριε, να αναβλεψω. | 41 Saying: What wilt thou that I do to thee? But he said: Lord, that I may see. |
42 Και ο Ιησους ειπε προς αυτον? Αναβλεψον? η πιστις σου σε εσωσε. | 42 And Jesus said to him: Receive thy sight: thy faith hath made thee whole. |
43 Και παρευθυς ανεβλεψε και ηκολουθει αυτον δοξαζων τον Θεον? και πας ο λαος ιδων ηνεσε τον Θεον. | 43 And immediately he saw, and followed him, glorifying God. And all the people, when they saw it, gave praise to God. |
