Luke 18
1 He also spoke a parable to them that they must always pray and not give up,
ελεγεν δε παραβολην αυτοις προς το δειν παντοτε προσευχεσθαι αυτους και μη εγκακειν
2 saying, “There was a judge in a certain city who did not fear God and did not respect man.
λεγων κριτης τις ην εν τινι πολει τον θεον μη φοβουμενος και ανθρωπον μη εντρεπομενος
3 A widow was in that city, and she often came to him, saying, ‘Defend me from my adversary!’
χηρα δε ην εν τη πολει εκεινη και ηρχετο προς αυτον λεγουσα εκδικησον με απο του αντιδικου μου
4 He would not for a while; but afterward he said to himself, ‘Though I neither fear God nor respect man,
και ουκ ηθελεν επι χρονον μετα {VAR1: ταυτα δε } {VAR2: δε ταυτα } ειπεν εν εαυτω ει και τον θεον ου φοβουμαι ουδε ανθρωπον εντρεπομαι
5 yet because this widow bothers me, I will defend her, or else she will wear me out by her continual coming.’”
δια γε το παρεχειν μοι κοπον την χηραν ταυτην εκδικησω αυτην ινα μη εις τελος ερχομενη υπωπιαζη με
6 The Lord said, “Listen to what the unrighteous judge says.
ειπεν δε ο κυριος ακουσατε τι ο κριτης της αδικιας λεγει
7 Will not God avenge his chosen ones who are crying out to him day and night, and yet he exercises patience with them?
ο δε θεος ου μη ποιηση την εκδικησιν των εκλεκτων αυτου των βοωντων αυτω ημερας και νυκτος και μακροθυμει επ αυτοις
8 I tell you that he will avenge them quickly. Nevertheless, when the Son of Man comes, will he find faith on the earth?”
λεγω υμιν οτι ποιησει την εκδικησιν αυτων εν ταχει πλην ο υιος του ανθρωπου ελθων αρα ευρησει την πιστιν επι της γης
9 He also spoke this parable to certain people who were convinced of their own righteousness, and who despised all others:
ειπεν δε και προς τινας τους πεποιθοτας εφ εαυτοις οτι εισιν δικαιοι και εξουθενουντας τους λοιπους την παραβολην ταυτην
10 “Two men went up into the temple to pray; one was a Pharisee, and the other was a tax collector.
ανθρωποι δυο ανεβησαν εις το ιερον προσευξασθαι {VAR2: ο } εις φαρισαιος και ο ετερος τελωνης
11 The Pharisee stood and prayed by himself like this: ‘God, I thank you that I am not like the rest of men: extortionists, unrighteous, adulterers, or even like this tax collector.
ο φαρισαιος σταθεις {VAR1: ταυτα προς εαυτον } {VAR2: προς εαυτον ταυτα } προσηυχετο ο θεος ευχαριστω σοι οτι ουκ ειμι ωσπερ οι λοιποι των ανθρωπων αρπαγες αδικοι μοιχοι η και ως ουτος ο τελωνης
12 I fast twice a week. I give tithes of all that I get.’
νηστευω δις του σαββατου {VAR1: αποδεκατευω } {VAR2: αποδεκατω } παντα οσα κτωμαι
13 But the tax collector, standing far away, would not even lift up his eyes to heaven, but beat his chest, saying, ‘God, be merciful to me, a sinner!’
ο δε τελωνης μακροθεν εστως ουκ ηθελεν ουδε τους οφθαλμους επαραι εις τον ουρανον αλλ ετυπτεν το στηθος {VAR1: εαυτου } {VAR2: αυτου } λεγων ο θεος ιλασθητι μοι τω αμαρτωλω
14 I tell you, this man went down to his house justified rather than the other; for everyone who exalts himself will be humbled, but he who humbles himself will be exalted.”
λεγω υμιν κατεβη ουτος δεδικαιωμενος εις τον οικον αυτου παρ εκεινον οτι πας ο υψων εαυτον ταπεινωθησεται ο δε ταπεινων εαυτον υψωθησεται
15 They were also bringing their babies to him, that he might touch them. But when the disciples saw it, they rebuked them.
προσεφερον δε αυτω και τα βρεφη ινα αυτων απτηται ιδοντες δε οι μαθηται επετιμων αυτοις
16 Jesus summoned them, saying, “Allow the little children to come to me, and do not hinder them, for God’s Kingdom belongs to such as these.
ο δε ιησους προσεκαλεσατο {VAR1: [αυτα] } {VAR2: αυτα } λεγων αφετε τα παιδια ερχεσθαι προς με και μη κωλυετε αυτα των γαρ τοιουτων εστιν η βασιλεια του θεου
17 Most certainly, I tell you, whoever does not receive God’s Kingdom like a little child, he will in no way enter into it.”
αμην λεγω υμιν ος αν μη δεξηται την βασιλειαν του θεου ως παιδιον ου μη εισελθη εις αυτην
18 A certain ruler asked him, saying, "Good Teacher, what shall I do to inherit consummate (aiōnios g166) life?"
και επηρωτησεν τις αυτον αρχων λεγων διδασκαλε αγαθε τι ποιησας ζωην αιωνιον κληρονομησω (aiōnios g166)
19 Jesus asked him, “Why do you call me good? No one is good, except one: God.
ειπεν δε αυτω ο ιησους τι με λεγεις αγαθον ουδεις αγαθος ει μη εις {VAR1: [ο] } {VAR2: ο } θεος
20 You know the commandments: ‘Do not commit adultery,’ ‘Do not murder,’ ‘Do not steal,’ ‘Do not give false testimony,’ ‘Honor your father and your mother.’”
τας εντολας οιδας μη μοιχευσης μη φονευσης μη κλεψης μη ψευδομαρτυρησης τιμα τον πατερα σου και την μητερα
21 He said, “I have observed all these things from my youth up.”
ο δε ειπεν ταυτα παντα εφυλαξα εκ νεοτητος
22 When Jesus heard these things, he said to him, “You still lack one thing. Sell all that you have and distribute it to the poor. Then you will have treasure in heaven; then come, follow me.”
ακουσας δε ο ιησους ειπεν αυτω ετι εν σοι λειπει παντα οσα εχεις πωλησον και διαδος πτωχοις και εξεις θησαυρον εν [τοις] ουρανοις και δευρο ακολουθει μοι
23 But when he heard these things, he became very sad, for he was very rich.
ο δε ακουσας ταυτα περιλυπος εγενηθη ην γαρ πλουσιος σφοδρα
24 Jesus, seeing that he became very sad, said, “How hard it is for those who have riches to enter into God’s Kingdom!
ιδων δε αυτον {VAR1: [ο] ιησους } {VAR2: ο ιησους [περιλυπον γενομενον] } ειπεν πως δυσκολως οι τα χρηματα εχοντες εις την βασιλειαν του θεου εισπορευονται
25 For it is easier for a camel to enter in through a needle’s eye than for a rich man to enter into God’s Kingdom.”
ευκοπωτερον γαρ εστιν καμηλον δια τρηματος βελονης εισελθειν η πλουσιον εις την βασιλειαν του θεου εισελθειν
26 Those who heard it said, “Then who can be saved?”
ειπαν δε οι ακουσαντες και τις δυναται σωθηναι
27 But he said, “The things which are impossible with men are possible with God.”
ο δε ειπεν τα αδυνατα παρα ανθρωποις δυνατα παρα τω θεω εστιν
28 Peter said, “Look, we have left everything and followed you.”
ειπεν δε ο πετρος ιδου ημεις αφεντες τα ιδια ηκολουθησαμεν σοι
29 He said to them, “Most certainly I tell you, there is no one who has left house, or wife, or brothers, or parents, or children, for God’s Kingdom’s sake,
ο δε ειπεν αυτοις αμην λεγω υμιν οτι ουδεις εστιν ος αφηκεν οικιαν η γυναικα η αδελφους η γονεις η τεκνα ενεκεν της βασιλειας του θεου
31 He took the twelve aside and said to them, “Behold, we are going up to Jerusalem, and all the things that are written through the prophets concerning the Son of Man will be completed.
παραλαβων δε τους δωδεκα ειπεν προς αυτους ιδου αναβαινομεν εις ιερουσαλημ και τελεσθησεται παντα τα γεγραμμενα δια των προφητων τω υιω του ανθρωπου
32 For he will be delivered up to the Gentiles, will be mocked, treated shamefully, and spit on.
παραδοθησεται γαρ τοις εθνεσιν και εμπαιχθησεται και υβρισθησεται και εμπτυσθησεται
33 They will scourge and kill him. On the third day, he will rise again.”
και μαστιγωσαντες αποκτενουσιν αυτον και τη ημερα τη τριτη αναστησεται
34 They understood none of these things. This saying was hidden from them, and they did not understand the things that were said.
και αυτοι ουδεν τουτων συνηκαν και ην το ρημα τουτο κεκρυμμενον απ αυτων και ουκ εγινωσκον τα λεγομενα
35 As he came near Jericho, a certain blind man sat by the road, begging.
εγενετο δε εν τω εγγιζειν αυτον εις ιεριχω τυφλος τις εκαθητο παρα την οδον επαιτων
36 Hearing a multitude going by, he asked what this meant.
ακουσας δε οχλου διαπορευομενου επυνθανετο τι ειη τουτο
37 They told him that Jesus of Nazareth was passing by.
απηγγειλαν δε αυτω οτι ιησους ο ναζωραιος παρερχεται
38 He cried out, “Jesus, you son of David, have mercy on me!”
και εβοησεν λεγων ιησου υιε δαυιδ ελεησον με
39 Those who led the way rebuked him, that he should be quiet; but he cried out all the more, “You son of David, have mercy on me!”
και οι προαγοντες επετιμων αυτω ινα σιγηση αυτος δε πολλω μαλλον εκραζεν υιε δαυιδ ελεησον με
40 Standing still, Jesus commanded him to be brought to him. When he had come near, he asked him,
σταθεις δε {VAR2: ο } ιησους εκελευσεν αυτον αχθηναι προς αυτον εγγισαντος δε αυτου επηρωτησεν αυτον
41 “What do you want me to do?” He said, “Lord, that I may see again.”
τι σοι θελεις ποιησω ο δε ειπεν κυριε ινα αναβλεψω
42 Jesus said to him, “Receive your sight. Your faith has healed you.”
και ο ιησους ειπεν αυτω αναβλεψον η πιστις σου σεσωκεν σε
43 Immediately he received his sight and followed him, glorifying God. All the people, when they saw it, praised God.
και παραχρημα ανεβλεψεν και ηκολουθει αυτω δοξαζων τον θεον και πας ο λαος ιδων εδωκεν αινον τω θεω
