Κατα Λουκαν 11
1 και εγενετο εν τω ειναι αυτον εν τοπω τινι προσευχομενον ωσ επαυσατο ειπεν τισ των μαθητων αυτου προσ αυτον κυριε διδαξον ημασ προσευχεσθαι καθωσ και ιωαννησ εδιδαξεν τουσ μαθητασ αυτου
It happened he was praying in a certain place, and when he stopped, one of his disciples said to him, "Master, teach us how to pray, just as Johntaught his disciples."
2 ειπεν δε αυτοισ οταν προσευχησθε λεγετε πατερ ημων ο εν τοισ ουρανοισ αγιασθητω το ονομα σου ελθετω η βασιλεια σου γενηθητω το θελημα σου ωσ εν ουρανω και επι τησ γησ
So he said to them. "When you pray, say, "Father, hallowed be thy name; May thy kingdom come,
3 τον αρτον ημων τον επιουσιον διδου ημιν το καθ ημεραν
"Give us day by day our bread for the coming day;
4 και αφεσ ημιν τασ αμαρτιασ ημων και γαρ αυτοι αφιεμεν παντι οφειλοντι ημιν και μη εισενεγκησ ημασ εισ πειρασμον αλλα ρυσαι ημασ απο του πονηρου
"Forgive us our sins; for we also forgive everyone who has offended us; "And bring us not into temptation."
5 και ειπεν προσ αυτουσ τισ εξ υμων εξει φιλον και πορευσεται προσ αυτον μεσονυκτιου και ειπη αυτω φιλε χρησον μοι τρεισ αρτουσ
He also said to them. "Suppose you have a friend and you go to him, ‘My friend, lend me three loaves of bread,
6 επειδη φιλοσ παρεγενετο εξ οδου προσ με και ουκ εχω ο παραθησω αυτω
"for a friend of mine is come to me from a journey, and I have nothing to set before him.’
7 κακεινοσ εσωθεν αποκριθεισ ειπη μη μοι κοπουσ παρεχε ηδη η θυρα κεκλεισται και τα παιδια μου μετ εμου εισ την κοιτην εισιν ου δυναμαι αναστασ δουναι σοι
"and he from indoors shall answer. ‘Do not pester me. The door is now closed, and my children are with me in bed. I cannot rise and give to you.’
8 λεγω υμιν ει και ου δωσει αυτω αναστασ δια το ειναι αυτου φιλον δια γε την αναιδειαν αυτου εγερθεισ δωσει αυτω οσον χρηζει
"I tell you that, though he will not rise and give to him because he is his friend, yet because of his importunate persistence he will rise and give him whatever he needs.
9 καγω υμιν λεγω αιτειτε και δοθησεται υμιν ζητειτε και ευρησετε κρουετε και ανοιγησεται υμιν
"So I say to you. "Ask, and it shall be given to you; seek, and ye shall find; knock and it shall be opened to you.
10 πασ γαρ ο αιτων λαμβανει και ο ζητων ευρισκει και τω κρουοντι ανοιγησεται
"For he that asks receives, and he who seeks finds, and to him who knocks the door shall be opened.
11 τινα δε υμων τον πατερα αιτησει ο υιοσ αρτον μη λιθον επιδωσει αυτω η και ιχθυν μη αντι ιχθυοσ οφιν επιδωσει αυτω
"What father is there among you who, if his son asks for a loaf, will give him a stone? Or if he asks for a fish will give him instead a serpent?
12 η και εαν αιτηση ωον μη επιδωσει αυτω σκορπιον
"Or if he asks for an egg, will offer him a scorpion?
13 ει ουν υμεισ πονηροι υπαρχοντεσ οιδατε δοματα αγαθα διδοναι τοισ τεκνοισ υμων ποσω μαλλον ο πατηρ ο εξ ουρανου δωσει πνευμα αγιον τοισ αιτουσιν αυτον
"If you give good gifts to your children, how much more shall the Father who is in heaven give the Holy spirit to those that ask him!"
14 και ην εκβαλλων δαιμονιον και αυτο ην κωφον εγενετο δε του δαιμονιου εξελθοντοσ ελαλησεν ο κωφοσ και εθαυμασαν οι οχλοι
Once he was casting out a dumb demon, and when the demon was gone out, the dumb man spoke, and the people wondered.
15 τινεσ δε εξ αυτων ειπον εν βεελζεβουλ αρχοντι των δαιμονιων εκβαλλει τα δαιμονια
But some of them said, "It is by Beelzebub, the prince of demons, that he cast out demons."
16 ετεροι δε πειραζοντεσ σημειον παρ αυτου εζητουν εξ ουρανου
Others, tempting him, kept seeking from him a sign from heaven.
17 αυτοσ δε ειδωσ αυτων τα διανοηματα ειπεν αυτοισ πασα βασιλεια εφ εαυτην διαμερισθεισα ερημουται και οικοσ επι οικον πιπτει
He knew their intentions and said to them. "Every kingdom divided against itself is laid waste and house falls upon house.
18 ει δε και ο σατανασ εφ εαυτον διεμερισθη πωσ σταθησεται η βασιλεια αυτου οτι λεγετε εν βεελζεβουλ εκβαλλειν με τα δαιμονια
"And if Satan also is divided against himself, how shall his kingdom stand?
19 ει δε εγω εν βεελζεβουλ εκβαλλω τα δαιμονια οι υιοι υμων εν τινι εκβαλλουσιν δια τουτο κριται υμων αυτοι εσονται
"Do you say that I am casting out demons by the power of Beelzebub? If I then am casting out demons by Beelzebub, by whom are your sons casting them out? They therefore shall be your judges.
20 ει δε εν δακτυλω θεου εκβαλλω τα δαιμονια αρα εφθασεν εφ υμασ η βασιλεια του θεου
"But if it is by the finger of God that I am casting out demons, then the kingdom of God is come upon you.
21 οταν ο ισχυροσ καθωπλισμενοσ φυλασση την εαυτου αυλην εν ειρηνη εστιν τα υπαρχοντα αυτου
"When the strong man fully aroused keeps guard over his homestead, his property is undisturbed;
22 επαν δε ο ισχυροτεροσ αυτου επελθων νικηση αυτον την πανοπλιαν αυτου αιρει εφ η επεποιθει και τα σκυλα αυτου διαδιδωσιν
"but when the stronger man attacks him, he takes away from the strong armor in which he was trusting and divides up the spoil.
23 ο μη ων μετ εμου κατ εμου εστιν και ο μη συναγων μετ εμου σκορπιζει
"He who is not for me is against me, and he who is not gathering with me is scattering.
24 οταν το ακαθαρτον πνευμα εξελθη απο του ανθρωπου διερχεται δι ανυδρων τοπων ζητουν αναπαυσιν και μη ευρισκον λεγει υποστρεψω εισ τον οικον μου οθεν εξηλθον
"Whenever a foul spirit is gone out of a man, it roams through waterless places, in search of rest; but when it can find none, it says, ‘I will go back to the house which I have left.’
25 και ελθον ευρισκει σεσαρωμενον και κεκοσμημενον
When it comes and finds the house completely swept and garnished.
26 τοτε πορευεται και παραλαμβανει επτα ετερα πνευματα πονηροτερα εαυτου και ελθοντα κατοικει εκει και γινεται τα εσχατα του ανθρωπου εκεινου χειρονα των πρωτων
"Then it goes off and fetches seven other spirits more wicked than itself, and they go in and live there. And the last state of that man is worse than the first."
27 εγενετο δε εν τω λεγειν αυτον ταυτα επαρασα τισ γυνη φωνην εκ του οχλου ειπεν αυτω μακαρια η κοιλια η βαστασασα σε και μαστοι ουσ εθηλασασ
It happened while he was saying this, that a certain woman out of the crowd shouted to him, saying, "Blessed is the womb that bore you, and the breast that you have sucked."
28 αυτοσ δε ειπεν μενουνγε μακαριοι οι ακουοντεσ τον λογον του θεου και φυλασσοντεσ αυτον
"No, rather," he answered, "blessed are those who listen to the word of God, and keep it."
29 των δε οχλων επαθροιζομενων ηρξατο λεγειν η γενεα αυτη πονηρα εστιν σημειον επιζητει και σημειον ου δοθησεται αυτη ει μη το σημειον ιωνα του προφητου
When the crowd were beginning to throng about him he proceeded to say. "This is an evil generation! It seeks a sign, and there shall be no sign be given to it except the sign of Jonah;
30 καθωσ γαρ εγενετο ιωνασ σημειον τοισ νινευιταισ ουτωσ εσται και ο υιοσ του ανθρωπου τη γενεα ταυτη
"for as Jonah became a sign to the Ninevites, so shall the Son of man be to this generation.
31 βασιλισσα νοτου εγερθησεται εν τη κρισει μετα των ανδρων τησ γενεασ ταυτησ και κατακρινει αυτουσ οτι ηλθεν εκ των περατων τησ γησ ακουσαι την σοφιαν σολομωνοσ και ιδου πλειον σολομωνοσ ωδε
"The queen of the South shall rise up in Judgement with the men of this generation, and shall condemn them; because she came from the ends of the earth to listen to the wisdom of Solomon, and lo, one greater than Solomon is here!
32 ανδρεσ νινευι αναστησονται εν τη κρισει μετα τησ γενεασ ταυτησ και κατακρινουσιν αυτην οτι μετενοησαν εισ το κηρυγμα ιωνα και ιδου πλειον ιωνα ωδε
"The men of the Nineveh shall stand up in the judgment with his generation and shall condemn it, for they repented at the preaching of Jonah, and lo! one greater than Jonah is here!
33 ουδεισ δε λυχνον αψασ εισ κρυπτην τιθησιν ουδε υπο τον μοδιον αλλ επι την λυχνιαν ινα οι εισπορευομενοι το φεγγοσ βλεπωσιν
"When one lights a lamp he does not put it in a cellar nor under the bushel, but on a lamp-stand that those who enter may see the light.
34 ο λυχνοσ του σωματοσ εστιν ο οφθαλμοσ οταν ουν ο οφθαλμοσ σου απλουσ η και ολον το σωμα σου φωτεινον εστιν επαν δε πονηροσ η και το σωμα σου σκοτεινον
"The lamp of the body is your eye; when your eye is single then your whole body is full of light; but when it is evil your whole body is full of darkness.
35 σκοπει ουν μη το φωσ το εν σοι σκοτοσ εστιν
"Look carefully! Perhaps that very light of yours is darkness.
36 ει ουν το σωμα σου ολον φωτεινον μη εχον τι μεροσ σκοτεινον εσται φωτεινον ολον ωσ οταν ο λυχνοσ τη αστραπη φωτιζη σε
"If, however, your whole body is full of light, without having any part dark, it will be wholly radiant with light, as when the lamp illumines you with its bright rays."
37 εν δε τω λαλησαι ηρωτα αυτον φαρισαιοσ τισ οπωσ αριστηση παρ αυτω εισελθων δε ανεπεσεν
When he had finished speaking a Pharisee asked him to dine with him; so he went in with him and reclined.
38 ο δε φαρισαιοσ ιδων εθαυμασεν οτι ου πρωτον εβαπτισθη προ του αριστου
And the Pharisee noticed, to his amazement, that he did not wash his hands before eating,
39 ειπεν δε ο κυριοσ προσ αυτον νυν υμεισ οι φαρισαιοι το εξωθεν του ποτηριου και του πινακοσ καθαριζετε το δε εσωθεν υμων γεμει αρπαγησ και πονηριασ
but the Lord said to him. "You Pharisee do cleanse the outside of your cup or plate, but your secret heart is full of extortion and wickedness.
40 αφρονεσ ουχ ο ποιησασ το εξωθεν και το εσωθεν εποιησεν
"Foolish men! Did not He who made the outside make the inside also?
41 πλην τα ενοντα δοτε ελεημοσυνην και ιδου παντα καθαρα υμιν εστιν
"Better cleanse what is within, and nothing will be unclean for you.
42 αλλ ουαι υμιν τοισ φαρισαιοισ οτι αποδεκατουτε το ηδυοσμον και το πηγανον και παν λαχανον και παρερχεσθε την κρισιν και την αγαπην του θεου ταυτα εδει ποιησαι κακεινα μη αφιεναι
"But woe unto you Pharisee! for you tithe mint and rue and every herb, and disregard justice and the love of God; but these you ought to have done, and not leave the other undone.
43 ουαι υμιν τοισ φαρισαιοισ οτι αγαπατε την πρωτοκαθεδριαν εν ταισ συναγωγαισ και τουσ ασπασμουσ εν ταισ αγοραισ
"Woe unto you Pharisee! for you delight in the best seats in the synagogue, and in the salutation in the market-places.
44 ουαι υμιν γραμματεισ και φαρισαιοι υποκριται οτι εστε ωσ τα μνημεια τα αδηλα και οι ανθρωποι περιπατουντεσ επανω ουκ οιδασιν
"Woe unto you! for you are like the tombs which are hidden, and men walk over them unsuspecting."
45 αποκριθεισ δε τισ των νομικων λεγει αυτω διδασκαλε ταυτα λεγων και ημασ υβριζεισ
Hereupon one of the lawyers exclaimed, "But teacher, in saying such things you are also reproaching us also."
46 ο δε ειπεν και υμιν τοισ νομικοισ ουαι οτι φορτιζετε τουσ ανθρωπουσ φορτια δυσβαστακτα και αυτοι ενι των δακτυλων υμων ου προσψαυετε τοισ φορτιοισ
"Woe unto you lawyers also!" said Jesus, "for you load men with irksome burdens, and you yourselves will not touch the burdens with one of your fingers.
47 ουαι υμιν οτι οικοδομειτε τα μνημεια των προφητων οι δε πατερεσ υμων απεκτειναν αυτουσ
"Woe to you! for you are building the tombs of the prophets whom you ancestors killed.
48 αρα μαρτυρειτε και συνευδοκειτε τοισ εργοισ των πατερων υμων οτι αυτοι μεν απεκτειναν αυτουσ υμεισ δε οικοδομειτε αυτων τα μνημεια
"So you are witnesses, and you consent to the actions of your ancestors. for they killed them, and you build their tombs.
49 δια τουτο και η σοφια του θεου ειπεν αποστελω εισ αυτουσ προφητασ και αποστολουσ και εξ αυτων αποκτενουσιν και εκδιωξουσιν
"For this reason also said the Wisdom of God. ‘I will send them prophets and apostles; some of them they will kill and some they will persecute;
50 ινα εκζητηθη το αιμα παντων των προφητων το εκχυνομενον απο καταβολησ κοσμου απο τησ γενεασ ταυτησ
"so that the blood of all the prophets which was shed from the foundation of the world may be required from this generation,
51 απο του αιματοσ αβελ εωσ του αιματοσ ζαχαριου του απολομενου μεταξυ του θυσιαστηριου και του οικου ναι λεγω υμιν εκζητηθησεται απο τησ γενεασ ταυτησ
"from the blood of Abel to the blood of Zachariah, who perished between the alter and the sanctuary; yes; I tell you, it shall be required of this generation!
52 ουαι υμιν τοισ νομικοισ οτι ηρατε την κλειδα τησ γνωσεωσ αυτοι ουκ εισηλθετε και τουσ εισερχομενουσ εκωλυσατε
"Woe to you lawyers, for you have taken away the key of knowledge!’ You yourselves have not entered, and you have hindered those who are trying to enter."
53 λεγοντοσ δε αυτου ταυτα προσ αυτουσ ηρξαντο οι γραμματεισ και οι φαρισαιοι δεινωσ ενεχειν και αποστοματιζειν αυτον περι πλειονων
After he had gone away, the Scribes and the Pharisee began to set themselves vehemently against him, and to cross-question him upon many points,
54 ενεδρευοντεσ αυτον ζητουντεσ θηρευσαι τι εκ του στοματοσ αυτου ινα κατηγορησωσιν αυτου
laying in wait for him, in order to catch a word from his lips.
