Κατα Λουκαν 13
1 παρησαν δε τινες εν αυτω τω καιρω απαγγελλοντες αυτω περι των γαλιλαιων ων το αιμα πιλατος εμιξεν μετα των θυσιων αυτων
Just at that time some people had come to tell Jesus about the Galileans, whose blood Pilate had mingled with the blood of their sacrifices.
2 και αποκριθεις ειπεν αυτοις δοκειτε οτι οι γαλιλαιοι ουτοι αμαρτωλοι παρα παντας τους γαλιλαιους εγενοντο οτι ταυτα πεπονθασιν
“Do you suppose,” replied Jesus, “that, because these Galileans have suffered in this way, they were worse sinners than any other Galileans?
3 ουχι λεγω υμιν αλλ εαν μη μετανοητε παντες ομοιως απολεισθε
No, I tell you; but, unless you repent, you will all perish as they did.
4 η εκεινοι οι δεκαοκτω εφ ους επεσεν ο πυργος εν τω σιλωαμ και απεκτεινεν αυτους δοκειτε οτι αυτοι οφειλεται εγενοντο παρα παντας τους ανθρωπους τους κατοικουντας ιερουσαλημ
Or those eighteen men at Siloam on whom the tower fell, killing them all, do you suppose that they were worse offenders than any other inhabitants of Jerusalem?
5 ουχι λεγω υμιν αλλ εαν μη {VAR1: μετανοησητε } {VAR2: μετανοητε } παντες ωσαυτως απολεισθε
No, I tell you; but, unless you repent, you will all perish in the same manner.”
6 ελεγεν δε ταυτην την παραβολην συκην ειχεν τις πεφυτευμενην εν τω αμπελωνι αυτου και ηλθεν ζητων καρπον εν αυτη και ουχ ευρεν
And Jesus told them this parable – “A man, who had a fig tree growing in his vineyard, came to look for fruit on it, but could not find any.
7 ειπεν δε προς τον αμπελουργον ιδου τρια ετη αφ ου ερχομαι ζητων καρπον εν τη συκη ταυτη και ουχ ευρισκω εκκοψον {VAR2: [ουν] } αυτην ινα τι και την γην καταργει
So he said to his gardener ‘Three years now I have come to look for fruit on this fig tree, without finding any! Cut it down. Why should it rob the soil?’
8 ο δε αποκριθεις λεγει αυτω κυριε αφες αυτην και τουτο το ετος εως οτου σκαψω περι αυτην και βαλω κοπρια
‘Leave it this one year more, Sir,’ the man answered, ‘until I have dug around it and manured it.
9 καν μεν ποιηση καρπον εις το μελλον ει δε μη γε εκκοψεις αυτην
Then, if it bears in future, well and good; but if not, you can have it cut down.’”
10 ην δε διδασκων εν μια των συναγωγων εν τοις σαββασιν
Jesus was teaching on a Sabbath in one of the synagogues,
11 και ιδου γυνη πνευμα εχουσα ασθενειας ετη δεκαοκτω και ην συγκυπτουσα και μη δυναμενη ανακυψαι εις το παντελες
and he saw before him a woman who for eighteen years had suffered from weakness owing to her having an evil spirit in her. She was bent double, and was wholly unable to raise herself.
12 ιδων δε αυτην ο ιησους προσεφωνησεν και ειπεν αυτη γυναι απολελυσαι της ασθενειας σου
When Jesus saw her, he called her to him, and said, “Woman, you are released from your weakness.”
13 και επεθηκεν αυτη τας χειρας και παραχρημα ανωρθωθη και εδοξαζεν τον θεον
He placed his hands on her, and she was instantly made straight, and began to praise God.
14 αποκριθεις δε ο αρχισυναγωγος αγανακτων οτι τω σαββατω εθεραπευσεν ο ιησους ελεγεν τω οχλω οτι εξ ημεραι εισιν εν αις δει εργαζεσθαι εν αυταις ουν ερχομενοι θεραπευεσθε και μη τη ημερα του σαββατου
But the synagogue leader, indignant that Jesus had worked the cure on the Sabbath, intervened and said to the people, “There are six days on which work ought to be done; come to be cured on one of those, and not on the Sabbath.”
15 απεκριθη δε αυτω ο κυριος και ειπεν υποκριται εκαστος υμων τω σαββατω ου λυει τον βουν αυτου η τον ονον απο της φατνης και {VAR1: απαγων } {VAR2: απαγαγων } ποτιζει
“You hypocrites!” the Master answered him. “Does not everyone of you let your ox or your donkey loose from its manger, and take it out to drink, on the Sabbath?
16 ταυτην δε θυγατερα αβρααμ ουσαν ην εδησεν ο σατανας ιδου δεκα και οκτω ετη ουκ εδει λυθηναι απο του δεσμου τουτου τη ημερα του σαββατου
But this woman, a daughter of Abraham, who has been kept in bondage by Satan for now eighteen years, ought not she to have been released from her bondage on the Sabbath?”
17 και ταυτα λεγοντος αυτου κατησχυνοντο παντες οι αντικειμενοι αυτω και πας ο οχλος εχαιρεν επι πασιν τοις ενδοξοις τοις γινομενοις υπ αυτου
As he said this, his opponents all felt ashamed; but all the people rejoiced to see all the wonderful things that he was doing.
18 ελεγεν ουν τινι ομοια εστιν η βασιλεια του θεου και τινι ομοιωσω αυτην
So Jesus said, “What is the kingdom of God like? And to what can I liken it?
19 ομοια εστιν κοκκω σιναπεως ον λαβων ανθρωπος εβαλεν εις κηπον εαυτου και ηυξησεν και εγενετο εις δενδρον και τα πετεινα του ουρανου κατεσκηνωσεν εν τοις κλαδοις αυτου
It is like a mustard seed which a man took and put in his garden. The seed grew and became a tree, and the wild birds roosted in its branches.”
20 και παλιν ειπεν τινι ομοιωσω την βασιλειαν του θεου
And again Jesus said, “To what can I liken the kingdom of God?
21 ομοια εστιν ζυμη ην λαβουσα γυνη {VAR1: εκρυψεν } {VAR2: (ενεκρυψεν) } εις αλευρου σατα τρια εως ου εζυμωθη ολον
It is like some yeast which a woman took and covered in three pecks of flour, until the whole had risen.”
22 και διεπορευετο κατα πολεις και κωμας διδασκων και πορειαν ποιουμενος εις ιεροσολυμα
Jesus went through towns and villages, teaching as he went, and making his way towards Jerusalem.
23 ειπεν δε τις αυτω κυριε ει ολιγοι οι σωζομενοι ο δε ειπεν προς αυτους
“Master,” someone asked, “are there but few in the path of salvation?” And Jesus answered,
24 αγωνιζεσθε εισελθειν δια της στενης θυρας οτι πολλοι λεγω υμιν ζητησουσιν εισελθειν και ουκ ισχυσουσιν
“Strive to go in by the narrow door. Many, I tell you, will seek to go in, but they will not be able,
25 αφ ου αν εγερθη ο οικοδεσποτης και αποκλειση την θυραν και αρξησθε εξω εσταναι και κρουειν την θυραν λεγοντες κυριε ανοιξον ημιν και αποκριθεις ερει υμιν ουκ οιδα υμας ποθεν εστε
when once the master of the house has got up and shut the door, while you begin to say, as you stand outside and knock, ‘Sir, open the door for us.’ His answer will be – ‘I do not know where you come from.’
26 τοτε αρξεσθε λεγειν εφαγομεν ενωπιον σου και επιομεν και εν ταις πλατειαις ημων εδιδαξας
Then you will begin to say ‘We have eaten and drunk in your presence, and you have taught in our streets,’ and his reply will be –
27 και ερει λεγων υμιν ουκ οιδα {VAR2: [υμας] } ποθεν εστε αποστητε απ εμου παντες εργαται αδικιας
‘I do not know where you come from. Leave my presence, all you who are living in wickedness.’
28 εκει εσται ο κλαυθμος και ο βρυγμος των οδοντων οταν οψησθε αβρααμ και ισαακ και ιακωβ και παντας τους προφητας εν τη βασιλεια του θεου υμας δε εκβαλλομενους εξω
There, there will be weeping and grinding of teeth, when you see Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob, and all the prophets, in the kingdom of God, while you yourselves are being driven outside.
29 και ηξουσιν απο ανατολων και δυσμων και απο βορρα και νοτου και ανακλιθησονται εν τη βασιλεια του θεου
People will come from East and West, and from North and South, and take their places at the banquet in the kingdom of God.
30 και ιδου εισιν εσχατοι οι εσονται πρωτοι και εισιν πρωτοι οι εσονται εσχατοι
There are some who are last now who will then be first, and some who are first now who will then be last!”
31 εν αυτη τη ωρα προσηλθαν τινες φαρισαιοι λεγοντες αυτω εξελθε και πορευου εντευθεν οτι ηρωδης θελει σε αποκτειναι
Just then some Pharisees came up to Jesus and said, “Go away and leave this place, for Herod wants to kill you.”
32 και ειπεν αυτοις πορευθεντες ειπατε τη αλωπεκι ταυτη ιδου εκβαλλω δαιμονια και ιασεις αποτελω σημερον και αυριον και τη τριτη τελειουμαι
But Jesus answered, “Go and say to that fox ‘Look you, I am driving out demons and will be completing cures today and tomorrow, and on the third day I will have done.’
33 πλην δει με σημερον και αυριον και τη εχομενη πορευεσθαι οτι ουκ ενδεχεται προφητην απολεσθαι εξω ιερουσαλημ
But today and tomorrow and the day after I must go on my way, because it cannot be that a prophet should meet his end outside Jerusalem.
34 ιερουσαλημ ιερουσαλημ η αποκτεινουσα τους προφητας και λιθοβολουσα τους απεσταλμενους προς αυτην ποσακις ηθελησα επισυναξαι τα τεκνα σου ον τροπον ορνις την εαυτης νοσσιαν υπο τας πτερυγας και ουκ ηθελησατε
Jerusalem! Jerusalem! You who slays the prophets and stones the messengers sent to you – Oh, how often have I wished to gather your children around me, as a hen takes her brood under her wings, and you would not come!
35 ιδου αφιεται υμιν ο οικος υμων λεγω [δε] υμιν ου μη ιδητε με εως {VAR2: [ηξει οτε] } ειπητε ευλογημενος ο ερχομενος εν ονοματι κυριου
Verily your house is left to you desolate! And never, I tell you, will you see me, until you say – ‘Blessed is He who comes in the name of the Lord.’”
