Κατα Λουκαν 17
1 ειπεν δε προς τους μαθητας ανενδεκτον εστιν του μη ελθειν τα σκανδαλα ουαι δε δι ου ερχεται
Then He said to the disciples: “Things that cause people to fall are bound to come, but woe to him through whom they do come!
2 λυσιτελει αυτω ει μυλος ονικος περικειται περι τον τραχηλον αυτου και ερριπται εις την θαλασσαν η ινα σκανδαλιση ενα των μικρων τουτων
It would be better for him if a millstone were hung around his neck and he were thrown into the sea, than that he should cause one of these little ones to fall.
3 προσεχετε εαυτοις εαν δε αμαρτη εις σε ο αδελφος σου επιτιμησον αυτω και εαν μετανοηση αφες αυτω
Watch out for yourselves: if your brother sins against you, rebuke him; and if he repents, forgive him.
4 και εαν επτακις της ημερας αμαρτη εις σε και επτακις της ημερας επιστρεψη επι σε λεγων μετανοω αφησεις αυτω
Even if he sins against you seven times in a day, and seven times in that day returns, saying, ‘I repent,’ you must forgive him.”
5 και ειπον οι αποστολοι τω κυριω προσθες ημιν πιστιν
The apostles said to the Lord, “Increase our faith.”
6 ειπεν δε ο κυριος ει ειχετε πιστιν ως κοκκον σιναπεως ελεγετε αν τη συκαμινω ταυτη εκριζωθητι και φυτευθητι εν τη θαλασση και υπηκουσεν αν υμιν
So the Lord said: “If you had faith like a mustard seed has, you could say to this mulberry tree, ‘Be uprooted, and be planted in the sea,’ and it would obey you.
7 τις δε εξ υμων δουλον εχων αροτριωντα η ποιμαινοντα ος εισελθοντι εκ του αγρου ερει ευθεως παρελθων αναπεσαι
“And which of you, having a slave plowing or tending sheep, will say to him when he comes in from the field, ‘Come at once and recline to eat’?
8 αλλ ουχι ερει αυτω ετοιμασον τι δειπνησω και περιζωσαμενος διακονει μοι εως φαγω και πιω και μετα ταυτα φαγεσαι και πιεσαι συ
Will he not rather say to him, ‘Prepare something for me to eat, and gird yourself and serve me until I eat and drink, and afterward you will eat and drink’?
9 μη χαριν εχει τω δουλω εκεινω οτι εποιησεν τα διαταχθεντα αυτω ου δοκω
Does he thank that slave because he did the things commanded? I guess not!
10 ουτως και υμεις οταν ποιησητε παντα τα διαταχθεντα υμιν λεγετε οτι δουλοι αχρειοι εσμεν οτι ο ωφειλομεν ποιησαι πεποιηκαμεν
So likewise you, whenever you have done everything you were told to do, say, ‘We are unworthy slaves, because we have only done what we were supposed to.’”
11 και εγενετο εν τω πορευεσθαι αυτον εις ιερουσαλημ και αυτος διηρχετο δια μεσου σαμαρειας και γαλιλαιας
Now as He was traveling toward Jerusalem, He went along between Samaria and Galilee.
12 και εισερχομενου αυτου εις τινα κωμην απηντησαν αυτω δεκα λεπροι ανδρες οι εστησαν πορρωθεν
And as He entered a certain village, ten men met Him—being lepers they stood at a distance.
13 και αυτοι ηραν φωνην λεγοντες ιησου επιστατα ελεησον ημας
They called out, saying, “Jesus, Master, have mercy on us!”
14 και ιδων ειπεν αυτοις πορευθεντες επιδειξατε εαυτους τοις ιερευσιν και εγενετο εν τω υπαγειν αυτους εκαθαρισθησαν
And paying attention He said to them, “Go and show yourselves to the priests.” It happened that as they went they were cleansed!
15 εις δε εξ αυτων ιδων οτι ιαθη υπεστρεψεν μετα φωνης μεγαλης δοξαζων τον θεον
Well one of them, when he saw that he was healed, returned, glorifying God with a loud voice;
16 και επεσεν επι προσωπον παρα τους ποδας αυτου ευχαριστων αυτω και αυτος ην σαμαρειτης
then he fell on his face at His feet, thanking Him—and he was a Samaritan!
17 αποκριθεις δε ο ιησους ειπεν ουχι οι δεκα εκαθαρισθησαν οι δε εννεα που
So Jesus reacted by saying: “Were not all ten cleansed? So where are the nine?
18 ουχ ευρεθησαν υποστρεψαντες δουναι δοξαν τω θεω ει μη ο αλλογενης ουτος
None were found to return and give glory to God except this foreigner!”
19 και ειπεν αυτω αναστας πορευου η πιστις σου σεσωκεν σε
Then He said to him, “Get up and go; your faith has made you well.”
20 επερωτηθεις δε υπο των φαρισαιων ποτε ερχεται η βασιλεια του θεου απεκριθη αυτοις και ειπεν ουκ ερχεται η βασιλεια του θεου μετα παρατηρησεως
Now when He was asked by the Pharisees when the Kingdom of God would come, He answered them and said: “The Kingdom of God does not come with observation;
21 ουδε ερουσιν ιδου ωδε η ιδου εκει ιδου γαρ η βασιλεια του θεου εντος υμων εστιν
nor will they say, ‘Look, here!’ or ‘Look, there!’ because indeed the Kingdom of God is within you.”
22 ειπεν δε προς τους μαθητας ελευσονται ημεραι οτε επιθυμησετε μιαν των ημερων του υιου του ανθρωπου ιδειν και ουκ οψεσθε
Then He said to the disciples: “Days are coming when you will long to see one of the days of the Son of the Man, and you will not see it.
23 και ερουσιν υμιν ιδου ωδε η ιδου εκει μη απελθητε μηδε διωξητε
And they will say to you, ‘Look, here!’ or ‘Look, there!’ Do not go along or follow.
24 ωσπερ γαρ η αστραπη η αστραπτουσα εκ της υπ ουρανον εις την υπ ουρανον λαμπει ουτως εσται και ο υιος του ανθρωπου εν τη ημερα αυτου
Because just like the lightning that lights the whole sky when it flashes, so also will the Son of the Man be in His day.
25 πρωτον δε δει αυτον πολλα παθειν και αποδοκιμασθηναι απο της γενεας ταυτης
But first He must suffer many things and be rejected by this generation.
26 και καθως εγενετο εν ταις ημεραις του νωε ουτως εσται και εν ταις ημεραις του υιου του ανθρωπου
Also, just as it was in the days of Noah, so will it also be in the days of the Son of the Man.
27 ησθιον επινον εγαμουν εξεγαμιζοντο αχρι ης ημερας εισηλθεν νωε εις την κιβωτον και ηλθεν ο κατακλυσμος και απωλεσεν απαντας
They were eating, drinking, marrying and being given in marriage, until the day that Noah entered the ark, and the flood came and destroyed them all.
28 ομοιως και ως εγενετο εν ταις ημεραις λωτ ησθιον επινον ηγοραζον επωλουν εφυτευον ωκοδομουν
Likewise also as it was in the days of Lot; they were eating, drinking, buying, selling, planting, building—
29 η δε ημερα εξηλθεν λωτ απο σοδομων εβρεξεν πυρ και θειον απ ουρανου και απωλεσεν απαντας
but on the day Lot went out from Sodom, fire and brimstone rained down from heaven and destroyed them all.
30 κατα ταυτα εσται η ημερα ο υιος του ανθρωπου αποκαλυπτεται
Even so will it be in the day when the Son of the Man is revealed.
31 εν εκεινη τη ημερα ος εσται επι του δωματος και τα σκευη αυτου εν τη οικια μη καταβατω αραι αυτα και ο εν τω αγρω ομοιως μη επιστρεψατω εις τα οπισω
“In that day, he who is on the housetop, and his goods in the house, let him not go down to get them; and likewise he who is in the field, let him not turn back.
32 μνημονευετε της γυναικος λωτ
Remember Lot's wife!
33 ος εαν ζητηση την ψυχην αυτου σωσαι απολεσει αυτην και ος εαν απολεση αυτην ζωογονησει αυτην
Whoever seeks to save his life will lose it, and whoever ‘wastes’ it will preserve it.
34 λεγω υμιν ταυτη τη νυκτι εσονται δυο επι κλινης μιας ο εις παραληφθησεται και ο ετερος αφεθησεται
I tell you: on that night there will be two men in one bed; one will be taken and the other left.
35 δυο εσονται αληθουσαι επι το αυτο η μια παραληφθησεται και η ετερα αφεθησεται
Two women will be grinding together; one will be taken and the other left.”
36 δυο εσονται εν τω αγρω ο εις παραληφθησεται και ο ετερος αφεθησεται
37 και αποκριθεντες λεγουσιν αυτω που κυριε ο δε ειπεν αυτοις οπου το σωμα εκει συναχθησονται οι αετοι
They reacted by saying to Him, “Where, Lord?” He said to them, “Where there is a carcass, there will the vultures also be gathered.”
