< Κατα Λουκαν 19 >

1 και εισελθων διηρχετο την ιεριχω
And, having entered, he was passing through Jericho;
2 και ιδου ανηρ ονοματι καλουμενος ζακχαιος και αυτος ην αρχιτελωνης και ουτος ην πλουσιος
and lo! a man, by name called Zacchaeus, and, he, was a chief tax-collector, and [he] was rich.
3 και εζητει ιδειν τον ιησουν τις εστιν και ουκ ηδυνατο απο του οχλου οτι τη ηλικια μικρος ην
And he was seeking to see Jesus, what sort of man he was, and could not for the multitude, because, in stature, he was, small.
4 και προδραμων εμπροσθεν ανεβη επι συκομωραιαν ινα ιδη αυτον οτι δι εκεινης ημελλεν διερχεσθαι
And, running forward unto the front, he got up a sycamore-tree, that he might see him; for, by that way, was he about to pass.
5 και ως ηλθεν επι τον τοπον αναβλεψας ο ιησους ειδεν αυτον και ειπεν προς αυτον ζακχαιε σπευσας καταβηθι σημερον γαρ εν τω οικω σου δει με μειναι
And, as he came up to the place, looking up, Jesus said unto him—Zacchaeus! make haste, and come down; For, to-day, in thy house, I must needs abide.
6 και σπευσας κατεβη και υπεδεξατο αυτον χαιρων
And he made haste, and came down, and received him joyfully.
7 και ιδοντες απαντες διεγογγυζον λεγοντες οτι παρα αμαρτωλω ανδρι εισηλθεν καταλυσαι
And all, when they beheld, began to murmur, saying—With a sinful man, hath he gone in to lodge!
8 σταθεις δε ζακχαιος ειπεν προς τον κυριον ιδου τα ημιση των υπαρχοντων μου κυριε διδωμι τοις πτωχοις και ει τινος τι εσυκοφαντησα αποδιδωμι τετραπλουν
But, taking his stand, Zacchaeus said unto the Lord—Lo! the half of my possessions, Lord, unto the destitute, I give; and, if, from anyone, I have taken aught by false accusation, I give back fourfold.
9 ειπεν δε προς αυτον ο ιησους οτι σημερον σωτηρια τω οικω τουτω εγενετο καθοτι και αυτος υιος αβρααμ εστιν
And Jesus said unto him—This day, salvation, unto this house, hath come, —for that, he too, is, a son of Abraham;
10 ηλθεν γαρ ο υιος του ανθρωπου ζητησαι και σωσαι το απολωλος
For the Son of Man came, to seek and to save what was lost.
11 ακουοντων δε αυτων ταυτα προσθεις ειπεν παραβολην δια το εγγυς αυτον ειναι ιερουσαλημ και δοκειν αυτους οτι παραχρημα μελλει η βασιλεια του θεου αναφαινεσθαι
And, because they were hearing these things, he added and spake a parable, because of his being near Jerusalem, and their supposing that, instantly, was the kingdom of God to shine forth.
12 ειπεν ουν ανθρωπος τις ευγενης επορευθη εις χωραν μακραν λαβειν εαυτω βασιλειαν και υποστρεψαι
He said, therefore—A certain man, of noble birth, went into a country far away, to receive for himself a kingdom, and to return.
13 καλεσας δε δεκα δουλους εαυτου εδωκεν αυτοις δεκα μνας και ειπεν προς αυτους πραγματευσασθε εως ερχομαι
And, calling ten servants of his own, he gave unto them ten minas, and said unto them—Do business, till I come.
14 οι δε πολιται αυτου εμισουν αυτον και απεστειλαν πρεσβειαν οπισω αυτου λεγοντες ου θελομεν τουτον βασιλευσαι εφ ημας
But, his citizens, hated him, and sent off an embassy after him, saying—We desire not, this, man, to be made king over us!
15 και εγενετο εν τω επανελθειν αυτον λαβοντα την βασιλειαν και ειπεν φωνηθηναι αυτω τους δουλους τουτους οις εδωκεν το αργυριον ινα γνω τις τι διεπραγματευσατο
And it came to pass, when he returned, having received the kingdom, that he bade be called unto him these servants, to whom he had given the silver, that he might take note, what business they had done.
16 παρεγενετο δε ο πρωτος λεγων κυριε η μνα σου προσειργασατο δεκα μνας
And the first came near, saying—Lord! thy mina, hath made, ten minas.
17 και ειπεν αυτω ευ αγαθε δουλε οτι εν ελαχιστω πιστος εγενου ισθι εξουσιαν εχων επανω δεκα πολεων
And he said to him—Well done! good servant. Because, in a very small thing, thou hast been, faithful, have thou authority over, ten cities.
18 και ηλθεν ο δευτερος λεγων κυριε η μνα σου εποιησεν πεντε μνας
And the second came, saying—Thy mina, lord, hath made five minas.
19 ειπεν δε και τουτω και συ γινου επανω πεντε πολεων
And he said, to him also, And, thou, be over five cities.
20 και ετερος ηλθεν λεγων κυριε ιδου η μνα σου ην ειχον αποκειμενην εν σουδαριω
And, the other, came, saying—Lord, lo! thy mina, which I kept lying by in a napkin;
21 εφοβουμην γαρ σε οτι ανθρωπος αυστηρος ει αιρεις ο ουκ εθηκας και θεριζεις ο ουκ εσπειρας
For I was afraid of thee, because, a harsh man, thou art, —Thou takest up, what thou layedst not down, and reapest, what thou sowedst not!
22 λεγει δε αυτω εκ του στοματος σου κρινω σε πονηρε δουλε ηδεις οτι εγω ανθρωπος αυστηρος ειμι αιρων ο ουκ εθηκα και θεριζων ο ουκ εσπειρα
He saith to him—Out of thy mouth, do I judge thee, O wicked servant! Thou knewest that, I, a harsh man, am, —taking up, what I laid not down, and reaping, what I did not sow;
23 και διατι ουκ εδωκας το αργυριον μου επι την τραπεζαν και εγω ελθων συν τοκω αν επραξα αυτο
Wherefore, then, didst thou not place my silver upon a [money-changer’s] table, and, I, when I came, with interest might have exacted it?
24 και τοις παρεστωσιν ειπεν αρατε απ αυτου την μναν και δοτε τω τας δεκα μνας εχοντι
And, unto the by-standers, he said—Take, from him, the mina, and give unto him that hath, the ten minas; —
25 και ειπον αυτω κυριε εχει δεκα μνας
And they said to him, Lord! he hath ten minas; —
26 λεγω γαρ υμιν οτι παντι τω εχοντι δοθησεται απο δε του μη εχοντος και ο εχει αρθησεται απ αυτου
I tell you—Unto everyone that hath, shall be given, whereas, from him that hath not, even what he hath, shall be taken away.
27 πλην τους εχθρους μου εκεινους τους μη θελησαντας με βασιλευσαι επ αυτους αγαγετε ωδε και κατασφαξατε εμπροσθεν μου
But, these mine enemies who desired not that I should be made king over them, bring ye here, and slay them outright before me.
28 και ειπων ταυτα επορευετο εμπροσθεν αναβαινων εις ιεροσολυμα
And, having said these things, he was moving on in front, going up into Jerusalem.
29 και εγενετο ως ηγγισεν εις βηθφαγη και βηθανιαν προς το ορος το καλουμενον ελαιων απεστειλεν δυο των μαθητων αυτου
And it came to pass, as he drew near unto Bethphage, and Bethany, unto the mount which is called the Mount of Olives, he sent off two of his disciples,
30 ειπων υπαγετε εις την κατεναντι κωμην εν η εισπορευομενοι ευρησετε πωλον δεδεμενον εφ ον ουδεις πωποτε ανθρωπων εκαθισεν λυσαντες αυτον αγαγετε
saying—Go your way unto the opposite village, in which, as ye are entering, ye shall find a colt, bound, whereon, no man, hath, ever sat, —and, having loosed him, bring him.
31 και εαν τις υμας ερωτα διατι λυετε ουτως ερειτε αυτω οτι ο κυριος αυτου χρειαν εχει
And, if any one question you—Wherefore are ye loosing him? thus, shall ye say—His Lord, hath, need.
32 απελθοντες δε οι απεσταλμενοι ευρον καθως ειπεν αυτοις
And they who were sent, departing, found as he had said to them.
33 λυοντων δε αυτων τον πωλον ειπον οι κυριοι αυτου προς αυτους τι λυετε τον πωλον
And, as they were loosing the colt, his lords said unto them—Why are ye loosing the colt?
34 οι δε ειπον ο κυριος αυτου χρειαν εχει
And, they, said—His Lord, hath, need.
35 και ηγαγον αυτον προς τον ιησουν και επιρριψαντες εαυτων τα ιματια επι τον πωλον επεβιβασαν τον ιησουν
And they brought him unto Jesus; and, throwing their mantles over the colt, they seated Jesus thereon.
36 πορευομενου δε αυτου υπεστρωννυον τα ιματια αυτων εν τη οδω
And, as he moved along, they were spreading their own mantles in the way.
37 εγγιζοντος δε αυτου ηδη προς τη καταβασει του ορους των ελαιων ηρξαντο απαν το πληθος των μαθητων χαιροντες αινειν τον θεον φωνη μεγαλη περι πασων ων ειδον δυναμεων
And, when he was drawing near, already, unto the descent of the Mount of Olives, one-and-all the throng of the disciples began joyfully to be praising God with a loud voice, concerning all the mighty works which they had seen;
38 λεγοντες ευλογημενος ο ερχομενος βασιλευς εν ονοματι κυριου ειρηνη εν ουρανω και δοξα εν υψιστοις
saying—Blessed is he that cometh… The king! In the name of the Lord! In heaven, peace! And glory in the highest!
39 και τινες των φαρισαιων απο του οχλου ειπον προς αυτον διδασκαλε επιτιμησον τοις μαθηταις σου
And, certain of the Pharisees from the multitude, said unto him—Teacher! rebuke thy disciples.
40 και αποκριθεις ειπεν αυτοις λεγω υμιν οτι εαν ουτοι σιωπησωσιν οι λιθοι κεκραξονται
And he answered and said—I tell you—If, these, shall hold their peace, the stones, will cry out.
41 και ως ηγγισεν ιδων την πολιν εκλαυσεν επ αυτη
And, when he drew near, beholding the city, he wept over it, saying—
42 λεγων οτι ει εγνως και συ και γε εν τη ημερα σου ταυτη τα προς ειρηνην σου νυν δε εκρυβη απο οφθαλμων σου
If thou hadst got to know, in this day, even thou, the conditions of peace… But, now, are they hid from thine eyes:
43 οτι ηξουσιν ημεραι επι σε και περιβαλουσιν οι εχθροι σου χαρακα σοι και περικυκλωσουσιν σε και συνεξουσιν σε παντοθεν
Because days will have come upon thee, that thine enemies will throw around a rampart against thee, and enclose thee; and hem thee in from every side, —
44 και εδαφιουσιν σε και τα τεκνα σου εν σοι και ουκ αφησουσιν εν σοι λιθον επι λιθω ανθ ων ουκ εγνως τον καιρον της επισκοπης σου
And will level thee with the ground, and thy children within thee, and will not leave, stone on stone, within thee: because thou didst not get to know the season of thy visitation.
45 και εισελθων εις το ιερον ηρξατο εκβαλλειν τους πωλουντας εν αυτω και αγοραζοντας
And, entering into the temple, he began to be casting out them who were selling;
46 λεγων αυτοις γεγραπται ο οικος μου οικος προσευχης εστιν υμεις δε αυτον εποιησατε σπηλαιον ληστων
saying unto them—It is written, And, my house, shall be, a house of prayer; but, ye, have made, it, a den of robbers.
47 και ην διδασκων το καθ ημεραν εν τω ιερω οι δε αρχιερεις και οι γραμματεις εζητουν αυτον απολεσαι και οι πρωτοι του λαου
And he was teaching day by day in the temple; but, the High-priests and the Scribes, also the chiefs of the people, were seeking to destroy him, —
48 και ουχ ευρισκον το τι ποιησωσιν ο λαος γαρ απας εξεκρεματο αυτου ακουων
and could not find what they might do, for, the people, one and all, were hanging upon him, as they hearkened.
