Matthew 5
1 On seeing the crowds of people, Jesus went up the hill; and, when he had taken his seat, his disciples came up to him;
ιδων δε τους οχλους ανεβη εις το ορος και καθισαντος αυτου προσηλθαν {VAR1: [αυτω] } {VAR2: αυτω } οι μαθηται αυτου
2 and he began to teach them, saying:
και ανοιξας το στομα αυτου εδιδασκεν αυτους λεγων
3 ‘Blessed are the poor in spirit, for theirs is the kingdom of heaven.
μακαριοι οι πτωχοι τω πνευματι οτι αυτων εστιν η βασιλεια των ουρανων
4 Blessed are the mourners, for they will be comforted.
μακαριοι οι πενθουντες οτι αυτοι παρακληθησονται
5 Blessed are the gentle, for they will inherit the earth.
μακαριοι οι πραεις οτι αυτοι κληρονομησουσιν την γην
6 Blessed are those who hunger and thirst for righteousness, for they will be satisfied.
μακαριοι οι πεινωντες και διψωντες την δικαιοσυνην οτι αυτοι χορτασθησονται
7 Blessed are the merciful, for they will find mercy.
μακαριοι οι ελεημονες οτι αυτοι ελεηθησονται
8 Blessed are the pure in heart, for they will see God.
μακαριοι οι καθαροι τη καρδια οτι αυτοι τον θεον οψονται
9 Blessed are the peacemakers, for they will be called children of God.
μακαριοι οι ειρηνοποιοι οτι {VAR1: [αυτοι] } {VAR2: αυτοι } υιοι θεου κληθησονται
10 Blessed are those who have been persecuted in the cause of righteousness, for theirs is the kingdom of heaven.
μακαριοι οι δεδιωγμενοι ενεκεν δικαιοσυνης οτι αυτων εστιν η βασιλεια των ουρανων
11 ‘Blessed are you when people insult you, and persecute you, and say all kinds of evil lies about you because of me.
μακαριοι εστε οταν ονειδισωσιν υμας και διωξωσιν και ειπωσιν παν πονηρον καθ υμων {VAR1: ψευδομενοι } {VAR2: [ψευδομενοι] } ενεκεν εμου
12 Be glad and rejoice, because your reward in heaven will be great; this is the way they persecuted the prophets who lived before you.
χαιρετε και αγαλλιασθε οτι ο μισθος υμων πολυς εν τοις ουρανοις ουτως γαρ εδιωξαν τους προφητας τους προ υμων
13 ‘You are salt for the world. But if salt becomes tasteless, how can it be made salty again? It is no longer good for anything, but is thrown away, and trampled underfoot.
υμεις εστε το αλας της γης εαν δε το αλας μωρανθη εν τινι αλισθησεται εις ουδεν ισχυει ετι ει μη βληθεν εξω καταπατεισθαι υπο των ανθρωπων
14 It is you who are the light of the world. A town that stands on a hill cannot be hidden.
υμεις εστε το φως του κοσμου ου δυναται πολις κρυβηναι επανω ορους κειμενη
15 People do not light a lamp and put it under a basket, but on the lamp-stand, where it gives light to everyone in the house.
ουδε καιουσιν λυχνον και τιθεασιν αυτον υπο τον μοδιον αλλ επι την λυχνιαν και λαμπει πασιν τοις εν τη οικια
16 Let your light so shine before the eyes of others so that, seeing your good actions, they will praise your Father who is in heaven.
ουτως λαμψατω το φως υμων εμπροσθεν των ανθρωπων οπως ιδωσιν υμων τα καλα εργα και δοξασωσιν τον πατερα υμων τον εν τοις ουρανοις
17 ‘Do not think that I have come to do away with the Law or the prophets; I have not come to do away with them, but to complete them.
μη νομισητε οτι ηλθον καταλυσαι τον νομον η τους προφητας ουκ ηλθον καταλυσαι αλλα πληρωσαι
18 For I tell you, until the heavens and the earth disappear, not even the smallest letter, nor one stroke of a letter, will disappear from the Law until all is done.
αμην γαρ λεγω υμιν εως αν παρελθη ο ουρανος και η γη ιωτα εν η μια κεραια ου μη παρελθη απο του νομου εως {VAR1: [αν] } {VAR2: αν } παντα γενηται
19 Whoever, therefore, breaks one of these commandments, even the least of them, and teaches others to do so, will be the least esteemed in the kingdom of heaven; but whoever keeps them, and teaches others to do so, will be esteemed great in the kingdom of heaven.
ος εαν ουν λυση μιαν των εντολων τουτων των ελαχιστων και διδαξη ουτως τους ανθρωπους ελαχιστος κληθησεται εν τη βασιλεια των ουρανων ος δ αν ποιηση και διδαξη ουτος μεγας κληθησεται εν τη βασιλεια των ουρανων
20 Indeed I tell you that, unless you obey God’s commands better than of the teachers of the Law, and Pharisees, you will never enter the kingdom of heaven.
λεγω γαρ υμιν οτι εαν μη περισσευση υμων η δικαιοσυνη πλειον των γραμματεων και φαρισαιων ου μη εισελθητε εις την βασιλειαν των ουρανων
21 ‘You have heard that to our ancestors it was said – “You must not commit murder,” and “Whoever commits murder will be brought to trial.”
ηκουσατε οτι ερρεθη τοις αρχαιοις ου φονευσεις ος δ αν φονευση ενοχος εσται τη κρισει
22 But I say to you that anyone who is angry at their brother or sister will be brought to trial; and whoever insults their brother or sister will be brought before the High Council, while whoever calls them a fool will be in danger of the fires of Gehenna. (Geenna g1067)
εγω δε λεγω υμιν οτι πας ο οργιζομενος τω αδελφω αυτου ενοχος εσται τη κρισει ος δ αν ειπη τω αδελφω αυτου ρακα ενοχος εσται τω συνεδριω ος δ αν ειπη μωρε ενοχος εσται εις την γεενναν του πυρος (Geenna g1067)
23 Therefore, when presenting your gift at the altar, if even there you remember that your brother or sister has something against you,
εαν ουν προσφερης το δωρον σου επι το θυσιαστηριον κακει μνησθης οτι ο αδελφος σου εχει τι κατα σου
24 leave your gift there, before the altar, go and be reconciled to them, first, then come and present your gift.
αφες εκει το δωρον σου εμπροσθεν του θυσιαστηριου και υπαγε πρωτον διαλλαγηθι τω αδελφω σου και τοτε ελθων προσφερε το δωρον σου
25 Be ready to make friends with your opponent, even when you meet them on your way to the court; otherwise they might hand you over to the judge, and the judge to the judicial officer, and you will be thrown into prison.
ισθι ευνοων τω αντιδικω σου ταχυ εως οτου ει μετ αυτου εν τη οδω μηποτε σε παραδω ο αντιδικος τω κριτη και ο κριτης τω υπηρετη και εις φυλακην βληθηση
26 I tell you, you will not come out until you have paid the last cent.
αμην λεγω σοι ου μη εξελθης εκειθεν εως αν αποδως τον εσχατον κοδραντην
27 ‘You have heard that it was said – “You must not commit adultery.”
ηκουσατε οτι ερρεθη ου μοιχευσεις
28 But I say to you that anyone who looks at a woman and desires her has already committed adultery with her in his heart.
εγω δε λεγω υμιν οτι πας ο βλεπων γυναικα προς το επιθυμησαι {VAR1: [αυτην] } {VAR2: αυτην } ηδη εμοιχευσεν αυτην εν τη καρδια αυτου
29 If your right eye causes you to sin, take it out and throw it away. It would be best for you to lose one part of your body, and not to have the whole of it thrown into Gehenna. (Geenna g1067)
ει δε ο οφθαλμος σου ο δεξιος σκανδαλιζει σε εξελε αυτον και βαλε απο σου συμφερει γαρ σοι ινα αποληται εν των μελων σου και μη ολον το σωμα σου βληθη εις γεενναν (Geenna g1067)
30 And, if your right hand causes you to sin, cut it off and throw it away. It would be best for you to lose one part of your body, and not to have the whole of it go down to Gehenna. (Geenna g1067)
και ει η δεξια σου χειρ σκανδαλιζει σε εκκοψον αυτην και βαλε απο σου συμφερει γαρ σοι ινα αποληται εν των μελων σου και μη ολον το σωμα σου εις γεενναν απελθη (Geenna g1067)
31 ‘It was also said – “Let anyone who divorces his wife serve her with a notice of separation.”
ερρεθη δε ος αν απολυση την γυναικα αυτου δοτω αυτη αποστασιον
32 But I say to you that anyone who divorces his wife, except on the ground of some serious sexual sin, leads to her committing adultery; while anyone who marries her after her divorce is guilty of adultery.
εγω δε λεγω υμιν οτι πας ο απολυων την γυναικα αυτου παρεκτος λογου πορνειας ποιει αυτην μοιχευθηναι {VAR1: [και } {VAR2: και } ος εαν απολελυμενην γαμηση {VAR1: μοιχαται] } {VAR2: μοιχαται }
33 Again, you have heard that our ancestors were told – “Do not break your oaths, keep your vows to the Lord.”
παλιν ηκουσατε οτι ερρεθη τοις αρχαιοις ουκ επιορκησεις αποδωσεις δε τω κυριω τους ορκους σου
34 But I say to you that you must not swear at all, either by heaven, since that is God’s throne,
εγω δε λεγω υμιν μη ομοσαι ολως μητε εν τω ουρανω οτι θρονος εστιν του θεου
35 or by the earth, since that is his footstool, or by Jerusalem, since that is the city of the Great King.
μητε εν τη γη οτι υποποδιον εστιν των ποδων αυτου μητε εις ιεροσολυμα οτι πολις εστιν του μεγαλου βασιλεως
36 Nor should you swear by your head, since you cannot make a single hair either white or black.
μητε εν τη κεφαλη σου ομοσης οτι ου δυνασαι μιαν τριχα λευκην ποιησαι η μελαιναν
37 Let your words be simply “Yes” or “No”; anything beyond this comes from what is evil.
εστω δε ο λογος υμων ναι ναι ου ου το δε περισσον τουτων εκ του πονηρου εστιν
38 ‘You have heard that it was said – “An eye for an eye and a tooth for a tooth.”
ηκουσατε οτι ερρεθη οφθαλμον αντι οφθαλμου και οδοντα αντι οδοντος
39 But I say to you that you must not resist those who wrong you; but, if anyone strikes you on the right cheek, turn the other to them also.
εγω δε λεγω υμιν μη αντιστηναι τω πονηρω αλλ οστις σε ραπιζει εις την δεξιαν σιαγονα [σου] στρεψον αυτω και την αλλην
40 If someone sues you for your shirt, let them have your cloak as well.
και τω θελοντι σοι κριθηναι και τον χιτωνα σου λαβειν αφες αυτω και το ιματιον
41 If you are forced to carry a soldier’s pack for one mile, carry it two.
και οστις σε αγγαρευσει μιλιον εν υπαγε μετ αυτου δυο
42 Give to anyone who asks and, if someone wants to borrow from you, do not turn them away.
τω αιτουντι σε δος και τον θελοντα απο σου δανισασθαι μη αποστραφης
43 You have heard that it was said – “You must love your neighbour and hate your enemy.”
ηκουσατε οτι ερρεθη αγαπησεις τον πλησιον σου και μισησεις τον εχθρον σου
44 But what I tell you is this: love your enemies, and pray for those who persecute you,
εγω δε λεγω υμιν αγαπατε τους εχθρους υμων και προσευχεσθε υπερ των διωκοντων υμας
45 so that you may become children of your Father who is in heaven; for he causes his sun to rise on bad and good alike, and sends rain on the righteous and on the unrighteous.
οπως γενησθε υιοι του πατρος υμων του εν ουρανοις οτι τον ηλιον αυτου ανατελλει επι πονηρους και αγαθους και βρεχει επι δικαιους και αδικους
46 For, if you love only those who love you, what reward will you have? Even the tax collectors do this!
εαν γαρ αγαπησητε τους αγαπωντας υμας τινα μισθον εχετε ουχι και οι τελωναι το αυτο ποιουσιν
47 And, if you only welcome your brothers and sisters, what are you doing more than others? Even the Gentiles do this!
και εαν ασπασησθε τους αδελφους υμων μονον τι περισσον ποιειτε ουχι και οι εθνικοι το αυτο ποιουσιν
48 You, then, must become perfect – as your heavenly Father is perfect.
εσεσθε ουν υμεις τελειοι ως ο πατηρ υμων ο ουρανιος τελειος εστιν
