< Luke 18 >

1 And he spake also a simile to them, that it behoveth [us] always to pray, and not to faint,
ελεγεν δε και παραβολην αυτοις προς το δειν παντοτε προσευχεσθαι και μη εκκακειν
2 saying, 'A certain judge was in a certain city — God he is not fearing, and man he is not regarding —
λεγων κριτης τις ην εν τινι πολει τον θεον μη φοβουμενος και ανθρωπον μη εντρεπομενος
3 and a widow was in that city, and she was coming unto him, saying, Do me justice on my opponent,
χηρα δε ην εν τη πολει εκεινη και ηρχετο προς αυτον λεγουσα εκδικησον με απο του αντιδικου μου
4 and he would not for a time, but after these things he said in himself, Even if God I do not fear, and man do not regard,
και ουκ ηθελησεν επι χρονον μετα δε ταυτα ειπεν εν εαυτω ει και τον θεον ου φοβουμαι και ανθρωπον ουκ εντρεπομαι
5 yet because this widow doth give me trouble, I will do her justice, lest, perpetually coming, she may plague me.'
δια γε το παρεχειν μοι κοπον την χηραν ταυτην εκδικησω αυτην ινα μη εις τελος ερχομενη υποπιαζη με
6 And the Lord said, 'Hear ye what the unrighteous judge saith:
ειπεν δε ο κυριος ακουσατε τι ο κριτης της αδικιας λεγει
7 and shall not God execute the justice to His choice ones, who are crying unto Him day and night — bearing long in regard to them?
ο δε θεος ου μη ποιηση την εκδικησιν των εκλεκτων αυτου των βοωντων προς αυτον ημερας και νυκτος και μακροθυμων επ αυτοις
8 I say to you, that He will execute the justice to them quickly; but the Son of Man having come, shall he find the faith upon 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 And he spake also unto certain who have been trusting in themselves that they were righteous, and have been despising the rest, this simile:
ειπεν δε προς τινας τους πεποιθοτας εφ εαυτοις οτι εισιν δικαιοι και εξουθενουντας τους λοιπους την παραβολην ταυτην
10 'Two men went up to the temple to pray, the one a Pharisee, and the other a tax-gatherer;
ανθρωποι δυο ανεβησαν εις το ιερον προσευξασθαι ο εις φαρισαιος και ο ετερος τελωνης
11 the Pharisee having stood by himself, thus prayed: God, I thank Thee that I am not as the rest of men, rapacious, unrighteous, adulterers, or even as this tax-gatherer;
ο φαρισαιος σταθεις 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 in the week, I give tithes of all things — as many as I possess.
νηστευω δις του σαββατου αποδεκατω παντα οσα κτωμαι
13 'And the tax-gatherer, having stood afar off, would not even the eyes lift up to the heaven, but was smiting on his breast, saying, God be propitious to me — the sinner!
και ο τελωνης μακροθεν εστως ουκ ηθελεν ουδε τους οφθαλμους εις τον ουρανον επαραι αλλ ετυπτεν εις το στηθος αυτου λεγων ο θεος ιλασθητι μοι τω αμαρτωλω
14 I say to you, this one went down declared righteous, to his house, rather than that one: for every one who is exalting himself shall be humbled, and he who is humbling himself shall be exalted.'
λεγω υμιν κατεβη ουτος δεδικαιωμενος εις τον οικον αυτου η γαρ εκεινος οτι πας ο υψων εαυτον ταπεινωθησεται ο δε ταπεινων εαυτον υψωθησεται
15 And they were bringing near also the babes, that he may touch them, and the disciples having seen did rebuke them,
προσεφερον δε αυτω και τα βρεφη ινα αυτων απτηται ιδοντες δε οι μαθηται επετιμησαν αυτοις
16 and Jesus having called them near, said, 'Suffer the little children to come unto me, and forbid them not, for of such is the reign of God;
ο δε ιησους προσκαλεσαμενος αυτα ειπεν αφετε τα παιδια ερχεσθαι προς με και μη κωλυετε αυτα των γαρ τοιουτων εστιν η βασιλεια του θεου
17 verily I say to you, Whoever may not receive the reign of God as a little child, may not enter into it.'
αμην λεγω υμιν ος εαν μη δεξηται την βασιλειαν του θεου ως παιδιον ου μη εισελθη εις αυτην
18 And a certain ruler questioned him, saying, 'Good teacher, what having done — shall I inherit life age-during?' (aiōnios g166)
και επηρωτησεν τις αυτον αρχων λεγων διδασκαλε αγαθε τι ποιησας ζωην αιωνιον κληρονομησω (aiōnios g166)
19 And Jesus said to him, 'Why me dost thou call good? no one [is] good, except One — God;
ειπεν δε αυτω ο ιησους τι με λεγεις αγαθον ουδεις αγαθος ει μη εις ο θεος
20 the commands thou hast known: Thou mayest not commit adultery, Thou mayest do no murder, Thou mayest not steal, Thou mayest not bear false witness, Honour thy father and thy mother.'
τας εντολας οιδας μη μοιχευσης μη φονευσης μη κλεψης μη ψευδομαρτυρησης τιμα τον πατερα σου και την μητερα σου
21 And he said, 'All these I did keep from my youth;'
ο δε ειπεν ταυτα παντα εφυλαξαμην εκ νεοτητος μου
22 and having heard these things, Jesus said to him, 'Yet one thing to thee is lacking; all things — as many as thou hast — sell, and distribute to the poor, and thou shalt have treasure in heaven, and come, be following me;'
ακουσας δε ταυτα ο ιησους ειπεν αυτω ετι εν σοι λειπει παντα οσα εχεις πωλησον και διαδος πτωχοις και εξεις θησαυρον εν ουρανω και δευρο ακολουθει μοι
23 and he, having heard these things, became very sorrowful, for he was exceeding rich.
ο δε ακουσας ταυτα περιλυπος εγενετο ην γαρ πλουσιος σφοδρα
24 And Jesus having seen him become very sorrowful, said, 'How hardly shall those having riches enter into the reign of God!
ιδων δε αυτον ο ιησους περιλυπον γενομενον ειπεν πως δυσκολως οι τα χρηματα εχοντες εισελευσονται εις την βασιλειαν του θεου
25 for it is easier for a camel through the eye of a needle to enter, than for a rich man into the reign of God to enter.'
ευκοπωτερον γαρ εστιν καμηλον δια τρυμαλιας ραφιδος εισελθειν η πλουσιον εις την βασιλειαν του θεου εισελθειν
26 And those who heard, said, 'And who is able to be saved?'
ειπον δε οι ακουσαντες και τις δυναται σωθηναι
27 and he said, 'The things impossible with men are possible with God.'
ο δε ειπεν τα αδυνατα παρα ανθρωποις δυνατα εστιν παρα τω θεω
28 And Peter said, 'Lo, we left all, and did follow thee;'
ειπεν δε πετρος ιδου ημεις αφηκαμεν παντα και ηκολουθησαμεν σοι
29 and he said to them, 'Verily I say to you, that there is not one who left house, or parents, or brothers, or wife, or children, for the sake of the reign of God,
ο δε ειπεν αυτοις αμην λεγω υμιν οτι ουδεις εστιν ος αφηκεν οικιαν η γονεις η αδελφους η γυναικα η τεκνα ενεκεν της βασιλειας του θεου
30 who may not receive back manifold more in this time, and in the coming age, life age-during.' (aiōn g165, aiōnios g166)
ος ου μη απολαβη πολλαπλασιονα εν τω καιρω τουτω και εν τω αιωνι τω ερχομενω ζωην αιωνιον (aiōn g165, aiōnios g166)
31 And having taken the twelve aside, he said unto them, 'Lo, we go up to Jerusalem, and all things shall be completed — that have been written through the prophets — to the Son of Man,
παραλαβων δε τους δωδεκα ειπεν προς αυτους ιδου αναβαινομεν εις ιεροσολυμα και τελεσθησεται παντα τα γεγραμμενα δια των προφητων τω υιω του ανθρωπου
32 for he shall be delivered up to the nations, and shall be mocked, and insulted, and spit upon,
παραδοθησεται γαρ τοις εθνεσιν και εμπαιχθησεται και υβρισθησεται και εμπτυσθησεται
33 and having scourged they shall put him to death, and on the third day he shall rise again.'
και μαστιγωσαντες αποκτενουσιν αυτον και τη ημερα τη τριτη αναστησεται
34 And they none of these things understood, and this saying was hid from them, and they were not knowing the things said.
και αυτοι ουδεν τουτων συνηκαν και ην το ρημα τουτο κεκρυμμενον απ αυτων και ουκ εγινωσκον τα λεγομενα
35 And it came to pass, in his coming nigh to Jericho, a certain blind man was sitting beside the way begging,
εγενετο δε εν τω εγγιζειν αυτον εις ιεριχω τυφλος τις εκαθητο παρα την οδον προσαιτων
36 and having heard a multitude going by, he was inquiring what this may be,
ακουσας δε οχλου διαπορευομενου επυνθανετο τι ειη τουτο
37 and they brought him word that Jesus the Nazarene doth pass by,
απηγγειλαν δε αυτω οτι ιησους ο ναζωραιος παρερχεται
38 and he cried out, saying, 'Jesus, Son of David, deal kindly with me;'
και εβοησεν λεγων ιησου υιε δαυιδ ελεησον με
39 and those going before were rebuking him, that he might be silent, but he was much more crying out, 'Son of David, deal kindly with me.'
και οι προαγοντες επετιμων αυτω ινα σιωπηση αυτος δε πολλω μαλλον εκραζεν υιε δαυιδ ελεησον με
40 And Jesus having stood, commanded him to be brought unto him, and he having come nigh, he questioned him,
σταθεις δε ο ιησους εκελευσεν αυτον αχθηναι προς αυτον εγγισαντος δε αυτου επηρωτησεν αυτον
41 saying, 'What wilt thou I shall do to thee?' and he said, 'Sir, that I may receive sight.'
λεγων τι σοι θελεις ποιησω ο δε ειπεν κυριε ινα αναβλεψω
42 And Jesus said to him, 'Receive thy sight; thy faith hath saved thee;'
και ο ιησους ειπεν αυτω αναβλεψον η πιστις σου σεσωκεν σε
43 and presently he did receive sight, and was following him, glorifying God; and all the people, having seen, did give praise to God.
και παραχρημα ανεβλεψεν και ηκολουθει αυτω δοξαζων τον θεον και πας ο λαος ιδων εδωκεν αινον τω θεω
