Luke 10
1 Now after these things, the Lord appointed seventy others also, and sent them two by two ahead of Him to every town and place where He Himself was about to go.
Μετὰ δὲ ταῦτα, ἀνέδειξεν ὁ ˚Κύριος ἑτέρους ἑβδομήκοντα δύο, καὶ ἀπέστειλεν αὐτοὺς ἀνὰ δύο πρὸ προσώπου αὐτοῦ, εἰς πᾶσαν πόλιν καὶ τόπον οὗ ἤμελλεν αὐτὸς ἔρχεσθαι.
2 Then He said to them: “The harvest is indeed great, but the workers are few; therefore pray to the Lord of the harvest that He may send out workers into His harvest.
Ἔλεγεν δὲ πρὸς αὐτούς, “Ὁ μὲν θερισμὸς πολύς, οἱ δὲ ἐργάται ὀλίγοι. Δεήθητε οὖν τοῦ ˚Κυρίου τοῦ θερισμοῦ, ὅπως ἐργάτας ἐκβάλῃ εἰς τὸν θερισμὸν αὐτοῦ.
3 “Go! Yes, I am sending you out like lambs among wolves.
Ὑπάγετε ἰδοὺ, ἀποστέλλω ὑμᾶς ὡς ἄρνας ἐν μέσῳ λύκων.
4 Do not carry a purse, nor a knapsack, nor sandals; and greet no one along the road.
Μὴ βαστάζετε βαλλάντιον, μὴ πήραν, μὴ ὑποδήματα, καὶ μηδένα κατὰ τὴν ὁδὸν ἀσπάσησθε.
5 Into whatever house you enter, first say, ‘Peace to this house.’
Εἰς ἣν δʼ ἂν εἰσέλθητε οἰκίαν, πρῶτον λέγετε, ‘Εἰρήνη τῷ οἴκῳ τούτῳ.’
6 If a son of peace is there, your peace will rest upon him; but if not, it will return to you.
Καὶ ἐὰν ἐκεῖ ᾖ υἱὸς εἰρήνης, ἐπαναπαήσεται ἐπʼ αὐτὸν ἡ εἰρήνη ὑμῶν· εἰ δὲ μή γε ἐφʼ ὑμᾶς ἀνακάμψει.
7 Remain in that same house, eating and drinking what they offer, because the worker is worthy of his wages. Do not move around from house to house.
Ἐν αὐτῇ δὲ τῇ οἰκίᾳ μένετε, ἐσθίοντες καὶ πίνοντες τὰ παρʼ αὐτῶν, ἄξιος γὰρ ὁ ἐργάτης τοῦ μισθοῦ αὐτοῦ. Μὴ μεταβαίνετε ἐξ οἰκίας εἰς οἰκίαν.
8 “And into whatever town you enter, and they receive you, eat the things that are set before you.
Καὶ εἰς ἣν ἂν πόλιν εἰσέρχησθε, καὶ δέχωνται ὑμᾶς, ἐσθίετε τὰ παρατιθέμενα ὑμῖν.
9 Heal the sick therein and say to them, ‘The Kingdom of God has come near to you.’
Καὶ θεραπεύετε τοὺς ἐν αὐτῇ ἀσθενεῖς, καὶ λέγετε αὐτοῖς, ‘Ἤγγικεν ἐφʼ ὑμᾶς ἡ Βασιλεία τοῦ ˚Θεοῦ.’
10 But into whatever town you enter, and they do not receive you, go out into its streets and say:
Εἰς ἣν δʼ ἂν πόλιν εἰσέλθητε, καὶ μὴ δέχωνται ὑμᾶς, ἐξελθόντες εἰς τὰς πλατείας αὐτῆς εἴπατε,
11 ‘Even the dust of your town that clings to us we wipe off against you. Nonetheless know this, that the Kingdom of God has come near to you.’
‘Καὶ τὸν κονιορτὸν τὸν κολληθέντα ἡμῖν ἐκ τῆς πόλεως ὑμῶν εἰς τοὺς πόδας ἀπομασσόμεθα ὑμῖν· πλὴν τοῦτο γινώσκετε ὅτι ἤγγικεν ἡ Βασιλεία τοῦ ˚Θεοῦ.’
12 I say to you that it will be more tolerable in that Day for Sodom than for that town.
Λέγω ὑμῖν ὅτι Σοδόμοις ἐν τῇ ἡμέρᾳ ἐκείνῃ ἀνεκτότερον ἔσται, ἢ τῇ πόλει ἐκείνῃ.
13 “Woe to you, Chorazin! Woe to you, Bethsaida! Because if the mighty works that were done in you had been done in Tyre and Sidon, they would have repented long ago, sitting in sackcloth and ashes.
Οὐαί σοι, Χοραζίν! Οὐαί σοι, Βηθσαϊδά! Ὅτι εἰ ἐν Τύρῳ καὶ Σιδῶνι ἐγενήθησαν αἱ δυνάμεις, αἱ γενόμεναι ἐν ὑμῖν, πάλαι ἂν ἐν σάκκῳ καὶ σποδῷ καθήμενοι μετενόησαν.
14 Nevertheless it will be more tolerable for Tyre and Sidon at the Judgment than for you.
Πλὴν Τύρῳ καὶ Σιδῶνι, ἀνεκτότερον ἔσται ἐν τῇ κρίσει ἢ ὑμῖν.
Καὶ σύ, Καφαρναούμ, μὴ ἕως οὐρανοῦ ὑψωθήσῃ; Ἕως ἍΙδου καταβήσῃ. (Hadēs g86)
16 “He who listens to you listens to me, and he who rejects you rejects me; but he who rejects me rejects Him who sent me!”
Ὁ ἀκούων ὑμῶν, ἐμοῦ ἀκούει, καὶ ὁ ἀθετῶν ὑμᾶς, ἐμὲ ἀθετεῖ· ὁ δὲ ἐμὲ ἀθετῶν, ἀθετεῖ τὸν ἀποστείλαντά με.”
17 Then the seventy returned with joy, saying, “Lord, even the demons are subject to us in your name!”
Ὑπέστρεψαν δὲ οἱ ἑβδομήκοντα δύο μετὰ χαρᾶς λέγοντες, “˚Κύριε, καὶ τὰ δαιμόνια ὑποτάσσεται ἡμῖν ἐν τῷ ὀνόματί σου.”
18 So He said to them: “I watched Satan fall like lightning out of heaven.
Εἶπεν δὲ αὐτοῖς, “Ἐθεώρουν τὸν Σατανᾶν ὡς ἀστραπὴν ἐκ τοῦ οὐρανοῦ πεσόντα.
19 Take note, I am giving you the authority to trample on snakes and scorpions, and over all the power of the enemy, and nothing at all may harm you.
Ἰδοὺ, δέδωκα ὑμῖν τὴν ἐξουσίαν τοῦ πατεῖν ἐπάνω ὄφεων καὶ σκορπίων, καὶ ἐπὶ πᾶσαν τὴν δύναμιν τοῦ ἐχθροῦ, καὶ οὐδὲν ὑμᾶς οὐ μὴ ἀδικήσῃ.
20 However, do not rejoice in this, that the spirits are subject to you; rather rejoice because your names are written in heaven.”
Πλὴν ἐν τούτῳ μὴ χαίρετε ὅτι τὰ πνεύματα ὑμῖν ὑποτάσσεται, χαίρετε δὲ ὅτι τὰ ὀνόματα ὑμῶν ἐγγέγραπται ἐν τοῖς οὐρανοῖς.”
21 In that same hour Jesus exulted in His spirit and said: “I praise you, Father, Lord of heaven and earth, that you have hidden these things from the wise and intelligent, and have revealed them to ‘infants’. Yes, Father, because it pleased you to do so.”
Ἐν αὐτῇ τῇ ὥρᾳ, ἠγαλλιάσατο τῷ ˚Πνεύματι τῷ Ἁγίῳ καὶ εἶπεν, “Ἐξομολογοῦμαί σοι, Πάτερ, ˚Κύριε τοῦ οὐρανοῦ καὶ τῆς γῆς, ὅτι ἀπέκρυψας ταῦτα ἀπὸ σοφῶν καὶ συνετῶν, καὶ ἀπεκάλυψας αὐτὰ νηπίοις. Ναί, ὁ Πατήρ, ὅτι οὕτως εὐδοκία ἐγένετο ἔμπροσθέν σου.
22 And turning to the disciples He said: “All things have been entrusted to me by my Father; also, no one knows who the Son is except the Father, and who the Father is except the Son, and to whomever the Son may choose to reveal Him.”
Πάντα μοι παρεδόθη ὑπὸ τοῦ Πατρός μου, καὶ οὐδεὶς γινώσκει τίς ἐστιν ὁ Υἱὸς, εἰ μὴ ὁ Πατήρ, καὶ τίς ἐστιν ὁ Πατὴρ, εἰ μὴ ὁ Υἱὸς καὶ ᾧ ἐὰν βούληται ὁ Υἱὸς ἀποκαλύψαι.”
23 Then turning to His disciples privately He said: “Blessed are the eyes that are seeing the things that you see;
Καὶ στραφεὶς πρὸς τοὺς μαθητὰς κατʼ ἰδίαν, εἶπεν, “Μακάριοι οἱ ὀφθαλμοὶ οἱ βλέποντες ἃ βλέπετε!
24 for I say to you that many prophets and kings have desired to see what you are seeing but did not, and to hear what you are hearing but did not.”
Λέγω γὰρ ὑμῖν ὅτι πολλοὶ προφῆται καὶ βασιλεῖς ἠθέλησαν ἰδεῖν ἃ ὑμεῖς βλέπετε, καὶ οὐκ εἶδαν, καὶ ἀκοῦσαι ἃ ἀκούετε, καὶ οὐκ ἤκουσαν.”
25 And then, a certain lawyer stood up to test Him, saying, “Teacher, what must I do to inherit eternal life?” (aiōnios g166)
Καὶ ἰδοὺ, νομικός τις ἀνέστη, ἐκπειράζων αὐτὸν λέγων, “Διδάσκαλε, τί ποιήσας, ζωὴν αἰώνιον κληρονομήσω;” (aiōnios g166)
26 So He said to him: “What is written in the Law? How do you read it?”
Ὁ δὲ εἶπεν πρὸς αὐτόν, “Ἐν τῷ νόμῳ τί γέγραπται; Πῶς ἀναγινώσκεις;”
27 In answer he said: “You shall love the Lord your God with all your heart, and with all your soul, and with all your strength, and with all your mind, and, your neighbor as yourself.”
Ὁ δὲ ἀποκριθεὶς εἶπεν, “‘Ἀγαπήσεις ˚Κύριον τὸν ˚Θεόν σου, ἐξ ὅλης καρδίας σου, καὶ ἐν ὅλῃ τῇ ψυχῇ σου, καὶ ἐν ὅλῃ τῇ ἰσχύϊ σου, καὶ ἐν ὅλῃ τῇ διανοίᾳ σου’, καὶ, ‘Τὸν πλησίον σου ὡς σεαυτόν.’”
28 So He said to him, “You have answered correctly; do this and you will live!”
Εἶπεν δὲ αὐτῷ, “Ὀρθῶς ἀπεκρίθης. Τοῦτο ποίει, καὶ ζήσῃ.”
29 But he, wanting to justify himself, said to Jesus, “And who is my neighbor?”
Ὁ δὲ θέλων δικαιῶσαι ἑαυτὸν, εἶπεν πρὸς τὸν ˚Ἰησοῦν, “Καὶ τίς ἐστίν μου πλησίον;”
30 By way of reply Jesus said: “A certain man was going down from Jerusalem to Jericho, and as it chanced he ran into robbers, who after having stripped and wounded him, departed, leaving him half dead.
Ὑπολαβὼν ὁ ˚Ἰησοῦς εἶπεν, “Ἄνθρωπός τις κατέβαινεν ἀπὸ Ἰερουσαλὴμ εἰς Ἰεριχὼ, καὶ λῃσταῖς περιέπεσεν, οἳ καὶ ἐκδύσαντες αὐτὸν, καὶ πληγὰς ἐπιθέντες, ἀπῆλθον ἀφέντες ἡμιθανῆ.
31 Now by coincidence a certain priest was going down that road, and when he saw him he passed by on the other side.
Κατὰ συγκυρίαν δὲ ἱερεύς τις κατέβαινεν ἐν τῇ ὁδῷ ἐκείνῃ, καὶ ἰδὼν αὐτὸν ἀντιπαρῆλθεν.
32 So too, a Levite, when he arrived at the place, came and looked, and passed by on the other side.
Ὁμοίως δὲ καὶ Λευίτης γενόμενος κατὰ τὸν τόπον, ἐλθὼν καὶ ἰδὼν ἀντιπαρῆλθεν.
33 But a certain Samaritan, as he traveled, came by there, and upon seeing him was moved with compassion;
Σαμαρείτης δέ τις ὁδεύων ἦλθεν κατʼ αὐτὸν, καὶ ἰδὼν ἐσπλαγχνίσθη
34 and going to him he bound up his wounds, applying oil and wine. Then he placed him on his own mount, brought him to an inn, and took care of him.
καὶ προσελθὼν, κατέδησεν τὰ τραύματα αὐτοῦ, ἐπιχέων ἔλαιον καὶ οἶνον, ἐπιβιβάσας δὲ αὐτὸν ἐπὶ τὸ ἴδιον κτῆνος, ἤγαγεν αὐτὸν εἰς πανδοχεῖον καὶ ἐπεμελήθη αὐτοῦ.
35 On the next day, when he departed, he took out two denarii, gave them to the innkeeper, and said to him, ‘Take care of him; and should you spend more, I will repay you when I return.’
Καὶ ἐπὶ τὴν αὔριον ἐκβαλὼν, ἔδωκεν δύο δηνάρια τῷ πανδοχεῖ, καὶ εἶπεν, ‘Ἐπιμελήθητι αὐτοῦ, καὶ ὅ τι ἂν προσδαπανήσῃς, ἐγὼ ἐν τῷ ἐπανέρχεσθαί με ἀποδώσω σοι.’
36 So which of these three, would you say, was ‘neighbor’ to him who ran into the robbers?”
Τίς τούτων τῶν τριῶν πλησίον δοκεῖ σοι γεγονέναι, τοῦ ἐμπεσόντος εἰς τοὺς λῃστάς;”
37 He said, “The one who showed mercy on him.” So Jesus said to him, “Go and do likewise!”
Ὁ δὲ εἶπεν, “Ὁ ποιήσας τὸ ἔλεος μετʼ αὐτοῦ.” Εἶπεν δὲ αὐτῷ ὁ ˚Ἰησοῦς, “Πορεύου καὶ σὺ ποίει ὁμοίως.”
38 Now it happened as they traveled that He entered a certain village; and a certain woman named Martha welcomed Him into her house.
Ἐν δὲ τῷ πορεύεσθαι αὐτοὺς, αὐτὸς εἰσῆλθεν εἰς κώμην τινά· γυνὴ δέ τις ὀνόματι Μάρθα ὑπεδέξατο αὐτὸν,
39 And she had a sister called Mary, who actually sat at Jesus' feet listening to His words.
καὶ τῇδε ἦν ἀδελφὴ καλουμένη Μαριάμ, ἣ καὶ παρακαθεσθεῖσα πρὸς τοὺς πόδας τοῦ ˚Ἰησοῦ, ἤκουεν τὸν λόγον αὐτοῦ.
40 Well Martha was distracted with much serving; so coming up she said: “Lord, don't you care that my sister has left me to serve alone? Do please tell her to help me!”
Ἡ δὲ Μάρθα περιεσπᾶτο περὶ πολλὴν διακονίαν· ἐπιστᾶσα δὲ εἶπεν, “˚Κύριε, οὐ μέλει σοι ὅτι ἡ ἀδελφή μου μόνην με κατέλιπεν διακονεῖν; Εἰπὲ οὖν αὐτῇ ἵνα μοι συναντιλάβηται!”
41 But in answer Jesus said to her: “Martha, Martha, you are anxious and agitated about many things,
Ἀποκριθεὶς δὲ εἶπεν αὐτῇ ὁ ˚Κύριος, “Μάρθα, Μάρθα, μεριμνᾷς καὶ θορυβάζῃ περὶ πολλά,
42 but only one is needed. However, Mary has chosen the good part, which will not be taken away from her.”
ἑνὸς δέ ἐστιν χρεία· Μαριὰμ γὰρ τὴν ἀγαθὴν μερίδα ἐξελέξατο, ἥτις οὐκ ἀφαιρεθήσεται ἀπʼ αὐτῆς.”
