Matthew 7
1 ‘Do not judge and you will not be judged.
μη κρινετε ινα μη κριθητε
2 For, just as you judge others, you will yourselves be judged, and the standard that you use will be used for you.
εν ω γαρ κριματι κρινετε κριθησεσθε και εν ω μετρω μετρειτε μετρηθησεται υμιν
3 Why do you look at the speck of sawdust in your friend’s eye, while you pay no attention at all to the plank of wood in yours?
τι δε βλεπεις το καρφος το εν τω οφθαλμω του αδελφου σου την δε εν τω σω οφθαλμω δοκον ου κατανοεις
4 How will you say to your friend “Let me take out the speck from your eye,” when all the time there is a plank in your own?
η πως ερεις τω αδελφω σου αφες εκβαλω το καρφος εκ του οφθαλμου σου και ιδου η δοκος εν τω οφθαλμω σου
5 Hypocrite! Take out the plank from your own eye first, and then you will see clearly how to take out the speck from your friend’s.
υποκριτα εκβαλε πρωτον εκ του οφθαλμου σου την δοκον και τοτε διαβλεψεις εκβαλειν το καρφος εκ του οφθαλμου του αδελφου σου
6 ‘Do not give what is sacred to dogs; they will turn and maul you. Do not throw your pearls before pigs; they will trample them underfoot.
μη δωτε το αγιον τοις κυσιν μηδε βαλητε τους μαργαριτας υμων εμπροσθεν των χοιρων μηποτε καταπατησουσιν αυτους εν τοις ποσιν αυτων και στραφεντες ρηξωσιν υμας
7 Ask, and it will be given to you; search, and you will find; knock, and the door will be opened to you.
αιτειτε και δοθησεται υμιν ζητειτε και ευρησετε κρουετε και ανοιγησεται υμιν
8 For the person who asks receives, the person who searches finds, and to the door will be opened to the person who knocks.
πας γαρ ο αιτων λαμβανει και ο ζητων ευρισκει και τω κρουοντι ανοιγησεται
9 Who among you, when their child asks them for bread, will give them a stone,
η τις {VAR2: εστιν } εξ υμων ανθρωπος ον αιτησει ο υιος αυτου αρτον μη λιθον επιδωσει αυτω
10 or when they ask for a fish, will give them a snake?
η και ιχθυν αιτησει μη οφιν επιδωσει αυτω
11 If you, then, wicked though you are, know how to give good gifts to your children, how much more will your Father who is in heaven give what is good to those who ask him!
ει ουν υμεις πονηροι οντες οιδατε δοματα αγαθα διδοναι τοις τεκνοις υμων ποσω μαλλον ο πατηρ υμων ο εν τοις ουρανοις δωσει αγαθα τοις αιτουσιν αυτον
12 ‘Do to others whatever you would wish them to do to you; for that is the teaching of both the Law and the prophets.
παντα ουν οσα εαν θελητε ινα ποιωσιν υμιν οι ανθρωποι ουτως και υμεις ποιειτε αυτοις ουτος γαρ εστιν ο νομος και οι προφηται
13 Go in by the small gate. The road that leads to destruction is broad and spacious, and many go in by it.
εισελθατε δια της στενης πυλης οτι πλατεια {VAR2: η πυλη } και ευρυχωρος η οδος η απαγουσα εις την απωλειαν και πολλοι εισιν οι εισερχομενοι δι αυτης
14 For the gate is small, and the road narrow, that leads to life, and there are few who find it.
{VAR1: οτι } {VAR2: τι } στενη η πυλη και τεθλιμμενη η οδος η απαγουσα εις την ζωην και ολιγοι εισιν οι ευρισκοντες αυτην
15 ‘Beware of false teachers – people who come to you in the guise of sheep, but at heart they are ravenous wolves.
προσεχετε απο των ψευδοπροφητων οιτινες ερχονται προς υμας εν ενδυμασιν προβατων εσωθεν δε εισιν λυκοι αρπαγες
16 By the fruit of their lives you will know them. Do people pick grapes from thorn bushes, or figs from thistles?
απο των καρπων αυτων επιγνωσεσθε αυτους μητι συλλεγουσιν απο ακανθων σταφυλας η απο τριβολων συκα
17 So, too, every sound tree bears good fruit, while a worthless tree bears bad fruit.
ουτως παν δενδρον αγαθον καρπους καλους ποιει το δε σαπρον δενδρον καρπους πονηρους ποιει
18 A sound tree cannot produce bad fruit, nor can a worthless tree bear good fruit.
ου δυναται δενδρον αγαθον καρπους πονηρους {VAR1: ενεγκειν } {VAR2: ποιειν } ουδε δενδρον σαπρον καρπους καλους ποιειν
19 Every tree that fails to bear good fruit is cut down and thrown into the fire.
παν δενδρον μη ποιουν καρπον καλον εκκοπτεται και εις πυρ βαλλεται
20 So it is by the fruit of their lives that you will know such people.
αρα γε απο των καρπων αυτων επιγνωσεσθε αυτους
21 Not everyone who says to me “Master! Master!” will enter the kingdom of heaven, but only he who does the will of my Father who is in heaven.
ου πας ο λεγων μοι κυριε κυριε εισελευσεται εις την βασιλειαν των ουρανων αλλ ο ποιων το θελημα του πατρος μου του εν τοις ουρανοις
22 On that day many will say to me “Master, Master, was not it in your name that we taught, and in your name that we drove out demons, and in your name that we did many miracles?”
πολλοι ερουσιν μοι εν εκεινη τη ημερα κυριε κυριε ου τω σω ονοματι επροφητευσαμεν και τω σω ονοματι δαιμονια εξεβαλομεν και τω σω ονοματι δυναμεις πολλας εποιησαμεν
23 And then I will say to them plainly “I never knew you. Go from my presence, you who live in sin.”
και τοτε ομολογησω αυτοις οτι ουδεποτε εγνων υμας αποχωρειτε απ εμου οι εργαζομενοι την ανομιαν
24 ‘Everyone, therefore, who listens to this teaching of mine and acts on it may be compared to a prudent person, who built their house on the rock.
πας ουν οστις ακουει μου τους λογους {VAR1: [τουτους] } {VAR2: τουτους } και ποιει αυτους ομοιωθησεται ανδρι φρονιμω οστις ωκοδομησεν αυτου την οικιαν επι την πετραν
25 The rain poured down, the rivers rose, the winds blew and beat on that house, but it did not fall, for its foundations were on the rock.
και κατεβη η βροχη και ηλθον οι ποταμοι και επνευσαν οι ανεμοι και προσεπεσαν τη οικια εκεινη και ουκ επεσεν τεθεμελιωτο γαρ επι την πετραν
26 Everyone who listens to this teaching of mine and does not act on it may be compared to a foolish person, who built their house on the sand.
και πας ο ακουων μου τους λογους τουτους και μη ποιων αυτους ομοιωθησεται ανδρι μωρω οστις ωκοδομησεν αυτου την οικιαν επι την αμμον
27 The rain poured down, the rivers rose, the winds blew and struck against that house, and it fell with a great crash.’
και κατεβη η βροχη και ηλθον οι ποταμοι και επνευσαν οι ανεμοι και προσεκοψαν τη οικια εκεινη και επεσεν και ην η πτωσις αυτης μεγαλη
28 By the time that Jesus had finished speaking, the crowd was filled with amazement at his teaching.
και εγενετο οτε ετελεσεν ο ιησους τους λογους τουτους εξεπλησσοντο οι οχλοι επι τη διδαχη αυτου
29 For he taught them like one who had authority, and not like their teachers of the Law.
ην γαρ διδασκων αυτους ως εξουσιαν εχων και ουχ ως οι γραμματεις αυτων
