Κατα Ματθαιον 21
1 και οτε ηγγισαν εισ ιεροσολυμα και ηλθον εισ βηθσφαγη προσ το οροσ των ελαιων τοτε ο ιησουσ απεστειλεν δυο μαθητασ
When they drew near to Urishlim, and came to Beth-Pageh, to the Mount of Olives, then Yeshua sent two disciples,
2 λεγων αυτοισ πορευθητε εισ την κωμην την απεναντι υμων και ευθεωσ ευρησετε ονον δεδεμενην και πωλον μετ αυτησ λυσαντεσ αγαγετε μοι
saying to them, "Go into the village that is opposite you, and immediately you will find a donkey tied, and a colt with her. Untie them, and bring them to me.
3 και εαν τισ υμιν ειπη τι ερειτε οτι ο κυριοσ αυτων χρειαν εχει ευθεωσ δε αποστελλει αυτουσ
And if anyone says anything to you, you are to say, 'Because the Lord needs them,' and he will send them at once."
4 τουτο δε ολον γεγονεν ινα πληρωθη το ρηθεν δια του προφητου λεγοντοσ
This took place that it might be fulfilled which was spoken through the prophet, saying,
5 ειπατε τη θυγατρι σιων ιδου ο βασιλευσ σου ερχεται σοι πραυσ και επιβεβηκωσ επι ονον και πωλον υιον υποζυγιου
Say to the daughter of Tsehyun, "Look, your King comes to you, humble, and riding on a donkey, on a colt, the foal of a donkey."
6 πορευθεντεσ δε οι μαθηται και ποιησαντεσ καθωσ προσεταξεν αυτοισ ο ιησουσ
The disciples went, and did just as Yeshua directed them,
7 ηγαγον την ονον και τον πωλον και επεθηκαν επανω αυτων τα ιματια αυτων και επεκαθισεν επανω αυτων
and brought the donkey and the colt, and placed their clothes on them; and he sat on them.
8 ο δε πλειστοσ οχλοσ εστρωσαν εαυτων τα ιματια εν τη οδω αλλοι δε εκοπτον κλαδουσ απο των δενδρων και εστρωννυον εν τη οδω
A very large crowd spread their clothes on the road. Others cut branches from the trees, and spread them on the road.
9 οι δε οχλοι οι προαγοντεσ και οι ακολουθουντεσ εκραζον λεγοντεσ ωσαννα τω υιω δαυιδ ευλογημενοσ ο ερχομενοσ εν ονοματι κυριου ωσαννα εν τοισ υψιστοισ
The crowds who went before him, and who followed kept shouting, "Ushanna to the son of Dawid. Blessed is he who comes in the name of the Lord. Ushanna in the highest."
10 και εισελθοντοσ αυτου εισ ιεροσολυμα εσεισθη πασα η πολισ λεγουσα τισ εστιν ουτοσ
When he had come into Urishlim, all the city was stirred up, saying, "Who is this?"
11 οι δε οχλοι ελεγον ουτοσ εστιν ιησουσ ο προφητησ ο απο ναζαρετ τησ γαλιλαιασ
The crowds said, "This is the prophet Yeshua, from Natsrath of Galila."
12 και εισηλθεν ο ιησουσ εισ το ιερον του θεου και εξεβαλεν παντασ τουσ πωλουντασ και αγοραζοντασ εν τω ιερω και τασ τραπεζασ των κολλυβιστων κατεστρεψεν και τασ καθεδρασ των πωλουντων τασ περιστερασ
Yeshua entered into the temple, and drove out all of those who sold and bought in the temple, and overthrew the money changers' tables and the seats of those who sold the doves.
13 και λεγει αυτοισ γεγραπται ο οικοσ μου οικοσ προσευχησ κληθησεται υμεισ δε αυτον εποιησατε σπηλαιον ληστων
He said to them, "It is written, 'My house will be called a house of prayer,' but you have made it a den of robbers."
14 και προσηλθον αυτω χωλοι και τυφλοι εν τω ιερω και εθεραπευσεν αυτουσ
The blind and the lame came to him in the temple, and he healed them.
15 ιδοντεσ δε οι αρχιερεισ και οι γραμματεισ τα θαυμασια α εποιησεν και τουσ παιδασ κραζοντασ εν τω ιερω και λεγοντασ ωσαννα τω υιω δαυιδ ηγανακτησαν
But when the chief priests and the scribes saw the wonderful things that he did, and the children crying out in the temple and saying, "Ushanna to the son of Dawid." they were indignant,
16 και ειπον αυτω ακουεισ τι ουτοι λεγουσιν ο δε ιησουσ λεγει αυτοισ ναι ουδεποτε ανεγνωτε οτι εκ στοματοσ νηπιων και θηλαζοντων κατηρτισω αινον
and said to him, "Do you hear what these are saying?" Yeshua said to them, "Yes. Did you never read, 'Out of the mouth of children and infants you have prepared praise?'"
17 και καταλιπων αυτουσ εξηλθεν εξω τησ πολεωσ εισ βηθανιαν και ηυλισθη εκει
He left them, and went out of the city to Beth-Naiya, and lodged there.
18 πρωιασ δε επαναγων εισ την πολιν επεινασεν
Now in the morning, as he returned to the city, he was hungry.
19 και ιδων συκην μιαν επι τησ οδου ηλθεν επ αυτην και ουδεν ευρεν εν αυτη ει μη φυλλα μονον και λεγει αυτη μηκετι εκ σου καρποσ γενηται εισ τον αιωνα και εξηρανθη παραχρημα η συκη (aiōn g165)
Seeing a fig tree by the road, he came to it, and found nothing on it but leaves. He said to it, "Let there be no fruit from you forever." Immediately the fig tree withered away. (aiōn g165)
20 και ιδοντεσ οι μαθηται εθαυμασαν λεγοντεσ πωσ παραχρημα εξηρανθη η συκη
When the disciples saw it, they were amazed, saying, "How did the fig tree immediately wither away?"
21 αποκριθεισ δε ο ιησουσ ειπεν αυτοισ αμην λεγω υμιν εαν εχητε πιστιν και μη διακριθητε ου μονον το τησ συκησ ποιησετε αλλα καν τω ορει τουτω ειπητε αρθητι και βληθητι εισ την θαλασσαν γενησεται
Yeshua answered them, "Truly I tell you, if you have faith, and do not doubt, you will not only do what was done to the fig tree, but even if you told this mountain, 'Be taken up and cast into the sea,' it would be done.
22 και παντα οσα εαν αιτησητε εν τη προσευχη πιστευοντεσ ληψεσθε
All things, whatever you ask in prayer, believing, you will receive."
23 και ελθοντι αυτω εισ το ιερον προσηλθον αυτω διδασκοντι οι αρχιερεισ και οι πρεσβυτεροι του λαου λεγοντεσ εν ποια εξουσια ταυτα ποιεισ και τισ σοι εδωκεν την εξουσιαν ταυτην
When he had come into the temple, the chief priests and the elders of the people came to him as he was teaching, and said, "By what authority do you do these things? Who gave you this authority?"
24 αποκριθεισ δε ο ιησουσ ειπεν αυτοισ ερωτησω υμασ καγω λογον ενα ον εαν ειπητε μοι καγω υμιν ερω εν ποια εξουσια ταυτα ποιω
Yeshua answered them, "I also will ask you one question, which if you tell me, I likewise will tell you by what authority I do these things.
25 το βαπτισμα ιωαννου ποθεν ην εξ ουρανου η εξ ανθρωπων οι δε διελογιζοντο παρ εαυτοισ λεγοντεσ εαν ειπωμεν εξ ουρανου ερει ημιν δια τι ουν ουκ επιστευσατε αυτω
The baptism of Yukhanan, where was it from? From heaven or from people?" They reasoned with themselves, saying, "If we say, 'From heaven,' he will ask us, 'Why then did you not believe him?'
26 εαν δε ειπωμεν εξ ανθρωπων φοβουμεθα τον οχλον παντεσ γαρ εχουσιν τον ιωαννην ωσ προφητην
But if we say, 'From people,' we fear the crowd, for all hold Yukhanan as a prophet."
27 και αποκριθεντεσ τω ιησου ειπον ουκ οιδαμεν εφη αυτοισ και αυτοσ ουδε εγω λεγω υμιν εν ποια εξουσια ταυτα ποιω
They answered Yeshua, and said, "We do not know." He also said to them, "Neither will I tell you by what authority I do these things.
28 τι δε υμιν δοκει ανθρωποσ ειχεν τεκνα δυο και προσελθων τω πρωτω ειπεν τεκνον υπαγε σημερον εργαζου εν τω αμπελωνι μου
But what do you think? A man had two sons, and he came to the first, and said, 'Son, go work today in the vineyard.'
29 ο δε αποκριθεισ ειπεν ου θελω υστερον δε μεταμεληθεισ απηλθεν
He answered, 'I will not,' but afterward he changed his mind, and went.
30 και προσελθων τω δευτερω ειπεν ωσαυτωσ ο δε αποκριθεισ ειπεν εγω κυριε και ουκ απηλθεν
And he came to the other, and said the same thing. And he answered and said, 'I go, sir,' but he did not go.
31 τισ εκ των δυο εποιησεν το θελημα του πατροσ λεγουσιν αυτω ο πρωτοσ λεγει αυτοισ ο ιησουσ αμην λεγω υμιν οτι οι τελωναι και αι πορναι προαγουσιν υμασ εισ την βασιλειαν του θεου
Which of the two did the will of his father?" They said, "The first." Yeshua said to them, "Truly I tell you that the tax collectors and the prostitutes are entering into the Kingdom of God before you.
32 ηλθεν γαρ προσ υμασ ιωαννησ εν οδω δικαιοσυνησ και ουκ επιστευσατε αυτω οι δε τελωναι και αι πορναι επιστευσαν αυτω υμεισ δε ιδοντεσ ου μετεμεληθητε υστερον του πιστευσαι αυτω
For Yukhanan came to you in the way of righteousness, and you did not believe him, but the tax collectors and the prostitutes believed him. When you saw it, you did not even repent afterward, that you might believe him.
33 αλλην παραβολην ακουσατε ανθρωποσ τισ ην οικοδεσποτησ οστισ εφυτευσεν αμπελωνα και φραγμον αυτω περιεθηκεν και ωρυξεν εν αυτω ληνον και ωκοδομησεν πυργον και εξεδοτο αυτον γεωργοισ και απεδημησεν
"Hear another parable. There was a landowner who planted a vineyard, set a hedge about it, dug a winepress in it, built a tower, leased it out to tenant farmers, and went on a journey.
34 οτε δε ηγγισεν ο καιροσ των καρπων απεστειλεν τουσ δουλουσ αυτου προσ τουσ γεωργουσ λαβειν τουσ καρπουσ αυτου
When the season for the fruit drew near, he sent his servants to the tenants, to receive his fruit.
35 και λαβοντεσ οι γεωργοι τουσ δουλουσ αυτου ον μεν εδειραν ον δε απεκτειναν ον δε ελιθοβολησαν
The tenants took his servants, beat one, killed another, and stoned another.
36 παλιν απεστειλεν αλλουσ δουλουσ πλειονασ των πρωτων και εποιησαν αυτοισ ωσαυτωσ
Again, he sent other servants more than the first: and they treated them the same way.
37 υστερον δε απεστειλεν προσ αυτουσ τον υιον αυτου λεγων εντραπησονται τον υιον μου
But afterward he sent to them his son, saying, 'They will respect my son.'
38 οι δε γεωργοι ιδοντεσ τον υιον ειπον εν εαυτοισ ουτοσ εστιν ο κληρονομοσ δευτε αποκτεινωμεν αυτον και κατασχωμεν την κληρονομιαν αυτου
But the tenants, when they saw the son, said among themselves, 'This is the heir. Come, let us kill him, and have his inheritance.'
39 και λαβοντεσ αυτον εξεβαλον εξω του αμπελωνοσ και απεκτειναν
So they took him, and threw him out of the vineyard, and killed him.
40 οταν ουν ελθη ο κυριοσ του αμπελωνοσ τι ποιησει τοισ γεωργοισ εκεινοισ
When therefore the lord of the vineyard comes, what will he do to those tenants?"
41 λεγουσιν αυτω κακουσ κακωσ απολεσει αυτουσ και τον αμπελωνα εκδωσεται αλλοισ γεωργοισ οιτινεσ αποδωσουσιν αυτω τουσ καρπουσ εν τοισ καιροισ αυτων
They told him, "He will utterly destroy those evil men, and will lease out the vineyard to other tenants, who will give him the fruit in its season."
42 λεγει αυτοισ ο ιησουσ ουδεποτε ανεγνωτε εν ταισ γραφαισ λιθον ον απεδοκιμασαν οι οικοδομουντεσ ουτοσ εγενηθη εισ κεφαλην γωνιασ παρα κυριου εγενετο αυτη και εστιν θαυμαστη εν οφθαλμοισ ημων
Yeshua said to them, "Did you never read in the Scriptures, 'The stone which the builders rejected, this one was made the cornerstone. This was from the Lord. It is marvelous in our eyes?'
43 δια τουτο λεγω υμιν οτι αρθησεται αφ υμων η βασιλεια του θεου και δοθησεται εθνει ποιουντι τουσ καρπουσ αυτησ
"Therefore I tell you, the Kingdom of God will be taken away from you, and will be given to a nation bringing forth its fruit.
44 και ο πεσων επι τον λιθον τουτον συνθλασθησεται εφ ον δ αν πεση λικμησει αυτον
He who falls on this stone will be broken to pieces; but on whomever it will fall, it will crush him."
45 και ακουσαντεσ οι αρχιερεισ και οι φαρισαιοι τασ παραβολασ αυτου εγνωσαν οτι περι αυτων λεγει
When the chief priests and the Pharisees heard his parables, they perceived that he spoke about them.
46 και ζητουντεσ αυτον κρατησαι εφοβηθησαν τουσ οχλουσ επειδη ωσ προφητην αυτον ειχον
When they sought to seize him, they feared the crowds, because they considered him to be a prophet.
