Κατα Λουκαν 22
1 ηγγιζεν δε η εορτη των αζυμων η λεγομενη πασχα
The feast of the unleavened bread, known as the Passover, was near.
2 και εζητουν οι αρχιερεις και οι γραμματεις το πως ανελωσιν αυτον εφοβουντο γαρ τον λαον
The chief priest and the teachers of the Law were looking for an opportunity of destroying Jesus, for they were afraid of the people.
3 εισηλθεν δε ο σατανας εις ιουδαν τον επικαλουμενον ισκαριωτην οντα εκ του αριθμου των δωδεκα
Now Satan took possession of Judas, who was known as Iscariot, and who belonged to the Twelve;
4 και απελθων συνελαλησεν τοις αρχιερευσιν και γραμματευσιν και στρατηγοις το πως αυτον παραδω αυτοις
and he went and discussed with the chief priests and officers in charge at the Temple the best way of betraying Jesus to them.
5 και εχαρησαν και συνεθεντο αυτω αργυρια δουναι
They were glad of this, and agreed to pay him.
6 και εξωμολογησεν και εζητει ευκαιριαν του παραδουναι αυτον αυτοις ατερ οχλου
So Judas assented, and looked for an opportunity to betray Jesus to them, in the absence of a crowd.
7 ηλθεν δε η ημερα των αζυμων εν η εδει θυεσθαι το πασχα
When the day of the Festival of the unleavened bread came, on which the Passover lambs had to be killed,
8 και απεστειλεν πετρον και ιωαννην ειπων πορευθεντες ετοιμασατε ημιν το πασχα ινα φαγωμεν
Jesus sent forward Peter and John, saying to them, “Go and make preparations for our eating the Passover.”
9 οι δε ειπον αυτω που θελεις ετοιμασωμεν
“Where do you wish us to make preparations?” they asked.
10 ο δε ειπεν αυτοις ιδου εισελθοντων υμων εις την πολιν συναντησει υμιν ανθρωπος κεραμιον υδατος βασταζων ακολουθησατε αυτω εις την οικιαν ου εισπορευεται
“Listen,” he answered, “when you have reached the city, a man carrying a pitcher of water will meet you; follow him into whatever house he enters;
11 και ερειτε τω οικοδεσποτη της οικιας λεγει σοι ο διδασκαλος που εστιν το καταλυμα οπου το πασχα μετα των μαθητων μου φαγω
and you will say to the owner of the house ‘The teacher says to you – Where is the room where I am to eat the Passover with my disciples?’
12 κακεινος υμιν δειξει ανωγαιον μεγα εστρωμενον εκει ετοιμασατε
The man will show you a large upstairs room, set out; there make preparations.”
13 απελθοντες δε ευρον καθως ειρηκεν αυτοις και ητοιμασαν το πασχα
So Peter and John went on, and found everything just as Jesus had told them, and they prepared the Passover.
14 και οτε εγενετο η ωρα ανεπεσεν και οι δωδεκα αποστολοι συν αυτω
When the time came, Jesus took his place at the table, and the apostles with him.
15 και ειπεν προς αυτους επιθυμια επεθυμησα τουτο το πασχα φαγειν μεθ υμων προ του με παθειν
“I have most earnestly wished,” he said, “to eat this Passover with you before I suffer.
16 λεγω γαρ υμιν οτι ουκετι ου μη φαγω εξ αυτου εως οτου πληρωθη εν τη βασιλεια του θεου
For I tell you that I will not eat it again, until it has had its fulfillment in the kingdom of God.”
17 και δεξαμενος [ το ] ποτηριον ευχαριστησας ειπεν λαβετε τουτο και διαμερισατε εαυτοις
Then, on receiving a cup, after saying the thanksgiving, he said, “Take this and share it among you.
18 λεγω γαρ υμιν οτι ου μη πιω απο του γενηματος της αμπελου εως οτου η βασιλεια του θεου ελθη
For I tell you that I will not, after today, drink of the fruit of the vine, until the kingdom of God has come.”
19 και λαβων αρτον ευχαριστησας εκλασεν και εδωκεν αυτοις λεγων τουτο εστιν το σωμα μου το υπερ υμων διδομενον τουτο ποιειτε εις την εμην αναμνησιν
Then Jesus took some bread, and, after saying the thanksgiving, broke it and gave to them, with the words, “This is my body.
20 ωσαυτως και το ποτηριον μετα το δειπνησαι λεγων τουτο το ποτηριον η καινη διαθηκη εν τω αιματι μου το υπερ υμων εκχυνομενον
21 πλην ιδου η χειρ του παραδιδοντος με μετ εμου επι της τραπεζης
Yet see! The hand of the man who is betraying me is beside me on the table!
22 και ο μεν υιος του ανθρωπου πορευεται κατα το ωρισμενον πλην ουαι τω ανθρωπω εκεινω δι ου παραδιδοται
True, the Son of Man is passing, by the way ordained for him, yet alas for that man by whom he is being betrayed!”
23 και αυτοι ηρξαντο συζητειν προς εαυτους το τις αρα ειη εξ αυτων ο τουτο μελλων πρασσειν
Then they began questioning one another which of them it could be who was going to do this.
24 εγενετο δε και φιλονεικια εν αυτοις το τις αυτων δοκει ειναι μειζων
And a dispute arose among them as to which of them was to be regarded as the greatest.
25 ο δε ειπεν αυτοις οι βασιλεις των εθνων κυριευουσιν αυτων και οι εξουσιαζοντες αυτων ευεργεται καλουνται
Jesus, however, said, “The kings of the Gentiles lord it over them, and their oppressors are styled ‘Benefactors.’
26 υμεις δε ουχ ουτως αλλ ο μειζων εν υμιν γινεσθω ως ο νεωτερος και ο ηγουμενος ως ο διακονων
But with you it must not be so. No, let the greatest among you become like the youngest, and him who leads like him who serves.
27 τις γαρ μειζων ο ανακειμενος η ο διακονων ουχι ο ανακειμενος εγω δε ειμι εν μεσω υμων ως ο διακονων
Which is the greater – the master at the table or his servant? Is not it the master at the table? Yet I myself am among you as one who serves.
28 υμεις δε εστε οι διαμεμενηκοτες μετ εμου εν τοις πειρασμοις μου
You are the men who have stood by me in my trials;
29 καγω διατιθεμαι υμιν καθως διεθετο μοι ο πατηρ μου βασιλειαν
and, just as my Father has assigned me a kingdom, I assign you places,
30 ινα εσθιητε και πινητε επι της τραπεζης μου εν τη βασιλεια μου και καθισεσθε επι θρονων κρινοντες τας δωδεκα φυλας του ισραηλ
so that you may eat and drink at my table in my kingdom, and be seated on twelve thrones as judges of the twelve tribes of Israel.
31 ειπεν δε ο κυριος σιμων σιμων ιδου ο σατανας εξητησατο υμας του συνιασαι ως τον σιτον
Simon! Simon! listen. Satan demanded leave to sift you all like wheat,
32 εγω δε εδεηθην περι σου ινα μη εκλιπη η πιστις σου και συ ποτε επιστρεψας στηριξον τους αδελφους σου
but I prayed for you, Simon, that your faith should not fail. And you, when you have returned to me, are to strengthen the others.”
33 ο δε ειπεν αυτω κυριε μετα σου ετοιμος ειμι και εις φυλακην και εις θανατον πορευεσθαι
“Master,” said Peter, “with you I am ready to go both to prison and to death.”
34 ο δε ειπεν λεγω σοι πετρε ου φωνησει σημερον αλεκτωρ πριν η τρις απαρνηση μη ειδεναι με
“I tell you, Peter,” replied Jesus, “the cock will not crow today until you have disowned all knowledge of me three times.”
35 και ειπεν αυτοις οτε απεστειλα υμας ατερ βαλλαντιου και πηρας και υποδηματων μη τινος υστερηθητε οι δε ειπον ουθενος
Then he said to them all, “When I sent you out as my messengers, without either purse, or bag, or sandals, were you in need of anything?” “No; nothing,” they answered.
36 ειπεν ουν αυτοις αλλα νυν ο εχων βαλλαντιον αρατω ομοιως και πηραν και ο μη εχων πωλησει το ιματιον αυτου και αγορασει μαχαιραν
“Now, however,” he said, “he who has a purse must take it and his bag as well; and he who has not must sell his cloak and buy a sword.
37 λεγω γαρ υμιν οτι ετι τουτο το γεγραμμενον δει τελεσθηναι εν εμοι το και μετα ανομων ελογισθη και γαρ τα περι εμου τελος εχει
For, I tell you, that passage of scripture must be fulfilled in me, which says – ‘He was counted among the godless’; indeed all that refers to me is finding its fulfillment.”
38 οι δε ειπον κυριε ιδου μαχαιραι ωδε δυο ο δε ειπεν αυτοις ικανον εστιν
“Master,” they exclaimed, “look, here are two swords!” “Enough!” said Jesus.
39 και εξελθων επορευθη κατα το εθος εις το ορος των ελαιων ηκολουθησαν δε αυτω και οι μαθηται αυτου
Jesus then went out, and made his way as usual to the Mount of Olives, followed by his disciples.
40 γενομενος δε επι του τοπου ειπεν αυτοις προσευχεσθε μη εισελθειν εις πειρασμον
And, when he reached the spot, he said to them, “Pray that you may not fall into temptation.”
41 και αυτος απεσπασθη απ αυτων ωσει λιθου βολην και θεις τα γονατα προσηυχετο
Then he withdrew about a stone’s throw, and knelt down and began to pray.
42 λεγων πατερ ει βουλει παρενεγκειν τουτο το ποτηριον απ εμου πλην μη το θελημα μου αλλα το σον γινεσθω
“Father,” he said, “if it is your pleasure, spare me this cup; only, not my will but your be done.”
43 ωφθη δε αυτω αγγελος απ ουρανου ενισχυων αυτον
Presently there appeared to him an angel from heaven, who strengthened him.
44 και γενομενος εν αγωνια εκτενεστερον προσηυχετο εγενετο δε ο ιδρως αυτου ωσει θρομβοι αιματος καταβαινοντες επι την γην
And, as his anguish became intense, he prayed still more earnestly, while his sweat was like great drops of blood falling on the ground.
45 και αναστας απο της προσευχης ελθων προς τους μαθητας ευρεν αυτους κοιμωμενους απο της λυπης
Then he rose from praying, and came to the disciples and found them sleeping for sorrow.
46 και ειπεν αυτοις τι καθευδετε ανασταντες προσευχεσθε ινα μη εισελθητε εις πειρασμον
“Why are you asleep?” he asked them. “Rise and pray so that you don’t fall into temptation.”
47 ετι δε αυτου λαλουντος ιδου οχλος και ο λεγομενος ιουδας εις των δωδεκα προηγεν αυτους και ηγγισεν τω ιησου φιλησαι αυτον τουτο γαρ σημειον δεδωκει αυτοις ον αν φιλησω αυτος εστιν
While he was still speaking, a crowd appeared in sight, led by the man called Judas, who was one of the Twelve. Judas approached Jesus, to kiss him;
48 ο δε ιησους ειπεν αυτω ιουδα φιληματι τον υιον του ανθρωπου παραδιδως
at which Jesus said to him, “Judas, is it by a kiss that you betray the Son of Man?”
49 ιδοντες δε οι περι αυτον το εσομενον ειπον αυτω κυριε ει παταξομεν εν μαχαιρα
But when those who were around Jesus saw what was going to happen, they exclaimed, “Master, should we use our swords?”
50 και επαταξεν εις τις εξ αυτων τον δουλον του αρχιερεως και αφειλεν αυτου το ους το δεξιον
And one of them struck the high priest’s servant and cut off his right ear;
51 αποκριθεις δε ο ιησους ειπεν εατε εως τουτου και αψαμενος του ωτιου αυτου ιασατο αυτον
at which Jesus said, “Let me at least do this”; and, touching his ear, he healed the wound.
52 ειπεν δε ο ιησους προς τους παραγενομενους επ αυτον αρχιερεις και στρατηγους του ιερου και πρεσβυτερους ως επι ληστην εξεληλυθατε μετα μαχαιρων και ξυλων
Then, turning to the chief priests and officers in charge at the Temple and the elders, who had come for him, he said, “Have you come out, as if after a robber, with swords and clubs?
53 καθ ημεραν οντος μου μεθ υμων εν τω ιερω ουκ εξετεινατε τας χειρας επ εμε αλλ αυτη εστιν υμων η ωρα και η εξουσια του σκοτους
When I was with you day after day in the Temple Courts, you did not lay hands on me; but now your time has come, and the power of darkness.”
54 συλλαβοντες δε αυτον ηγαγον και εισηγαγον αυτον εις τον οικον του αρχιερεως ο δε πετρος ηκολουθει μακροθεν
Those who had taken Jesus prisoner took him away into the house of the high priest. Peter followed at a distance.
55 αψαντων δε πυραν εν μεσω της αυλης και συγκαθισαντων αυτων εκαθητο ο πετρος εν μεσω αυτων
But, when they had lit a fire in the centre of the courtyard and had all sat down there, Peter seated himself in the middle of them.
56 ιδουσα δε αυτον παιδισκη τις καθημενον προς το φως και ατενισασα αυτω ειπεν και ουτος συν αυτω ην
Presently a maidservant saw him sitting near the blaze of the fire. She looked carefully at him and said, “Why, this man was one of his companions!”
57 ο δε ηρνησατο λεγων γυναι ουκ οιδα αυτον
But Peter denied it. “I do not know him,” he replied.
58 και μετα βραχυ ετερος ιδων αυτον εφη και συ εξ αυτων ει ο δε πετρος ειπεν ανθρωπε ουκ ειμι
A little while afterward someone else – a man – saw him and said, “Why, you are one of them!” “No,” Peter said, “I am not.”
59 και διαστασης ωσει ωρας μιας αλλος τις διισχυριζετο λεγων επ αληθειας και ουτος μετ αυτου ην και γαρ γαλιλαιος εστιν
About an hour later another man declared positively, “This man also was certainly with him. Why, he is a Galilean!”
60 ειπεν δε ο πετρος ανθρωπε ουκ οιδα ο λεγεις και παραχρημα ετι λαλουντος αυτου εφωνησεν αλεκτωρ
But Peter said, “I do not know what you are speaking about.” Instantly, while he was still speaking, a cock crowed.
61 και στραφεις ο κυριος ενεβλεψεν τω πετρω και υπεμνησθη ο πετρος του λογου του κυριου ως ειπεν αυτω οτι πριν αλεκτορα φωνησαι απαρνηση με τρις
And the Master turned and looked at Peter; and Peter remembered the words that the Master had said to him – “Before a cock has crowed today, you will disown me three times”;
62 και εξελθων εξω ο πετρος εκλαυσεν πικρως
and he went outside and wept bitterly.
63 και οι ανδρες οι συνεχοντες τον ιησουν ενεπαιζον αυτω δεροντες
The men who held Jesus kept making sport of him and beating him.
64 και περικαλυψαντες αυτον ετυπτον αυτου το προσωπον και επηρωτων αυτον λεγοντες προφητευσον τις εστιν ο παισας σε
They blindfolded him and then questioned him. “Now play the prophet,” they said. “Who was it that struck you?”
65 και ετερα πολλα βλασφημουντες ελεγον εις αυτον
And they heaped many other insults on him.
66 και ως εγενετο ημερα συνηχθη το πρεσβυτεριον του λαου αρχιερεις και γραμματεις και ανηγαγον αυτον εις το συνεδριον εαυτων λεγοντες
At daybreak the assembly of the elders of the people met – both the chief priests and the teachers of the Law – and took Jesus before their High Council.
67 ει συ ει ο χριστος ειπε ημιν ειπεν δε αυτοις εαν υμιν ειπω ου μη πιστευσητε
“If you are the Christ,” they said, “tell us so.” “If I tell you,” replied Jesus, “you will not believe me;
68 εαν δε και ερωτησω ου μη αποκριθητε μοι η απολυσητε
and, if I question you, you will not answer.
69 απο του νυν εσται ο υιος του ανθρωπου καθημενος εκ δεξιων της δυναμεως του θεου
But from this hour the Son of Man will be seated on the right hand of God Almighty.”
70 ειπον δε παντες συ ουν ει ο υιος του θεου ο δε προς αυτους εφη υμεις λεγετε οτι εγω ειμι
“Are you, then, the Son of God?” they all asked. “It is true,” answered Jesus, “I am.”
71 οι δε ειπον τι ετι χρειαν εχομεν μαρτυριας αυτοι γαρ ηκουσαμεν απο του στοματος αυτου
At this they exclaimed, “Why do we want any more evidence? We have heard it ourselves from his own lips!”
