< Luke 18 >

1 He was speaking then (and *ko) a parable to them about it needing always to pray (they *no) and not to lose heart 2 saying; A judge certain there was in a certain city God not fearing and man not respecting. 3 A widow then there was in the city that and she was coming to him saying; do avenge me of the adversary of mine. 4 And not (he was desiring [to do] *N+kO) for a time. afterward however he said within himself; If even God not I fear (nor *N+kO) man respect, 5 because yet it occasioning me trouble widow this I will avenge her, so that not to end coming she may exhaust me. 6 Said then the Lord; do hear what the judge unrighteous says; 7 And God certainly not (may do *N+kO) the avenging of the elect of Him the [ones] crying out (to *k) (to Him *N+kO) day and night, and (be patient *N+kO) in regard to them? 8 I say to you that He will carry out the avenging of them with speed. Nevertheless the Son of Man having come surely not will He find faith on the earth? 9 He spoke now also to some having trusted in themselves that they are righteous and (despising *NK+o) the others parable this. 10 Men two went up into the temple to pray, the one a Pharisee and the other a tax collector. 11 The Pharisee having stood toward himself these things was praying; O God, I thank You that not I am (like *NK+o) the rest of the men — swindlers, unrighteous, adulterers — or even like this tax collector. 12 I fast twice in the week, I tithe all things as much as I gain. 13 (and *ko) (but *no) the tax collector afar off having stood not was willing not even the eyes to lift up to heaven but was striking (into *k) the breast (of him *NK+o) saying: O God, do be merciful to me to the sinner! 14 I say to you; went down this one justified to the house of him (rather than *k) (compared with *n+o) (that [one]. *N+kO) For everyone who is exalting himself will be humbled, the [one] however humbling himself will be exalted. 15 They were bringing then to Him also the infants that them He may touch; having seen however the disciples (were rebuking *N+kO) them. 16 But Jesus (called *N+kO) them (speaking; *N+kO) do permit the little children to come to Me and not do forbid them; for of such is the kingdom of God. 17 Amen I say to you; who[ever] (maybe *N+kO) not shall receive the kingdom of God as a child, certainly not shall enter into it. 18 And asked a certain Him ruler saying; Teacher good, what having done life eternal will I inherit? (aiōnios g166) 19 Said then to him Jesus; Why Me you call good? No [one is] good only except one God. 20 The commandments You know: Not shall you commit adultery, not shall you murder, not shall you steal, not shall you bear false witness, do honor the father of you and the mother (of you. *k) 21 And he said; These all (I kept *N+kO) from [the] youth (of mine. *ko) 22 Having heard then (these things *k) Jesus said to him; Yet one thing to you is lacking: All as much as you have do sell and do distribute to [the] poor, and you will have treasure in (the *no) (heavens; *N+kO) and come, do follow Me. 23 And having heard these things very sorrowful (he became; *N+kO) he was for rich extremely. 24 Having seen then him Jesus sorrowful became saying; How difficult [for] those riches having [when] into the kingdom of God (they enter. *N+kO) 25 Easier for it is a camel through (an eye of a needle *N+kO) to go than a rich man into the kingdom of God to enter. 26 Said then those having heard; Then who is able to be saved? 27 But He said; The [things] impossible with men possible with God are. 28 Said then Peter; Behold we ourselves (having abandoned *N+kO) ([our] own [things] *N+kO) (and *k) followed You. 29 And He said to them; Amen I say to you that no [one] there is who has left house or wife or brothers or parents or children for the sake of the kingdom of God, 30 who (certainly *N+kO) nothing (may receive back *NK+o) manifold more in time this — and in the age which is coming life eternal. (aiōn g165, aiōnios g166) 31 Having taken aside then the Twelve He said to them; Behold we go up to (Jerusalem, *N+kO) and will be accomplished all things which written through the prophets about the Son of Man; 32 He will be betrayed for to the Gentiles and will be mocked and will be insulted and will be spit upon, 33 And having flogged [Him] they will kill Him, and on the day third He will rise again. 34 And they themselves no [thing] of these things understood, and was declaration this hidden from them, and neither they were knowing the [things] being spoken. 35 It came to pass then in the drawing near by Him to Jericho a blind [man] certain was sitting beside the road (begging. *N+kO) 36 Having heard now a crowd passing along he was asking what (maybe *o) would be this. 37 They told then to him that Jesus of Nazareth is passing by. 38 And he called out saying; Jesus Son of David, do have mercy on me. 39 And those going before were rebuking him that (he may be silent. *N+kO) He himself however much more was crying out; Son of David, do have mercy on me. 40 Having stopped then Jesus commanded him to be brought to Him. When was approaching then he He asked him; 41 (saying *ko) What to you desire you I may do? And he said; Lord, that I may receive sight. 42 And Jesus said to him; do receive sight: The faith of you has healed you. 43 And immediately he received sight and was following Him glorifying God. And all the people having seen [it] gave praise to God.
