< Matthew 12 >

1 At that time Jesus went through the grain fields on the sabbath, and his disciples were hungry and began to pluck ears, and to eat.
εν εκεινω τω καιρω επορευθη ο ιησους τοις σαββασιν δια των σποριμων οι δε μαθηται αυτου επεινασαν και ηρξαντο τιλλειν σταχυας και εσθιειν
2 But the Pharisees, when they saw it, said to him, Behold, thy disciples do what is not permitted to do upon the sabbath.
οι δε φαρισαιοι ιδοντες ειπαν αυτω ιδου οι μαθηται σου ποιουσιν ο ουκ εξεστιν ποιειν εν σαββατω
3 But he said to them, Have ye not read what David did when he was hungry, he and those with him,
ο δε ειπεν αυτοις ουκ ανεγνωτε τι εποιησεν δαυιδ οτε επεινασεν και οι μετ αυτου
4 how he entered into the house of God, and ate the loaves of the presentation, which was not permitted for him to eat, nor for those with him, except only for the priests?
πως εισηλθεν εις τον οικον του θεου και τους αρτους της προθεσεως εφαγον ο ουκ εξον ην αυτω φαγειν ουδε τοις μετ αυτου ει μη τοις ιερευσιν μονοις
5 Or have ye not read in the law, that on the sabbath the priests in the temple profane the sabbath, and are guiltless?
η ουκ ανεγνωτε εν τω νομω οτι τοις σαββασιν οι ιερεις εν τω ιερω το σαββατον βεβηλουσιν και αναιτιοι εισιν
6 But I say to you, that a greater than the temple is here.
λεγω δε υμιν οτι του ιερου μειζον εστιν ωδε
7 But if ye had known what this means, I desire mercy, and not sacrifice, ye would not have condemned the innocent.
ει δε εγνωκειτε τι εστιν ελεος θελω και ου θυσιαν ουκ αν κατεδικασατε τους αναιτιους
8 For the Son of man is Lord of the sabbath.
κυριος γαρ εστιν του σαββατου ο υιος του ανθρωπου
9 And having departed from there, he went into their synagogue.
και μεταβας εκειθεν ηλθεν εις την συναγωγην αυτων
10 And behold, there was a man having a withered hand. And they interrogated him, asking if it is permitted to heal on the sabbath, so that they might accuse him.
και ιδου ανθρωπος χειρα εχων ξηραν και επηρωτησαν αυτον λεγοντες ει εξεστιν τοις σαββασιν {VAR1: θεραπευειν } {VAR2: θεραπευσαι } ινα κατηγορησωσιν αυτου
11 And he said to them, What man of you will there be, who will have one sheep, and if this falls into a pit on the sabbath, will he not grasp it, and lift it out?
ο δε ειπεν αυτοις τις {VAR1: [εσται] } {VAR2: εσται } εξ υμων ανθρωπος ος εξει προβατον εν και εαν εμπεση τουτο τοις σαββασιν εις βοθυνον ουχι κρατησει αυτο και εγερει
12 How much therefore a man is superior to a sheep. So then it is permitted to do good on the sabbath.
ποσω ουν διαφερει ανθρωπος προβατου ωστε εξεστιν τοις σαββασιν καλως ποιειν
13 Then he says to the man, Stretch forth thy hand. And he stretched it forth, and it was restored whole, as the other.
τοτε λεγει τω ανθρωπω εκτεινον σου την χειρα και εξετεινεν και απεκατεσταθη υγιης ως η αλλη
14 But when they went out, the Pharisees held a consultation against him, how they might destroy him.
εξελθοντες δε οι φαρισαιοι συμβουλιον ελαβον κατ αυτου οπως αυτον απολεσωσιν
15 And having known it Jesus withdrew from there, and many multitudes followed him, and he healed them all.
ο δε ιησους γνους ανεχωρησεν εκειθεν και ηκολουθησαν αυτω {VAR2: [οχλοι] } πολλοι και εθεραπευσεν αυτους παντας
16 And he chided them so that they would not make him known,
και επετιμησεν αυτοις ινα μη φανερον αυτον ποιησωσιν
17 so that what was spoken through Isaiah the prophet might be fulfilled, which says,
ινα πληρωθη το ρηθεν δια ησαιου του προφητου λεγοντος
18 Behold, my Boy whom I chose, my beloved in whom my soul is well pleased. I will put my Spirit upon him, and he will declare justice to the Gentiles.
ιδου ο παις μου ον ηρετισα ο αγαπητος μου {VAR2: εις } ον ευδοκησεν η ψυχη μου θησω το πνευμα μου επ αυτον και κρισιν τοις εθνεσιν απαγγελει
19 He will not quarrel, nor will he shout, nor will any man hear his voice in the thoroughfares.
ουκ ερισει ουδε κραυγασει ουδε ακουσει τις εν ταις πλατειαις την φωνην αυτου
20 A bruised reed he will not break, and smoldering flax he will not quench, until he sends forth justice for victory.
καλαμον συντετριμμενον ου κατεαξει και λινον τυφομενον ου σβεσει εως αν εκβαλη εις νικος την κρισιν
21 And in his name Gentiles will hope.
και τω ονοματι αυτου εθνη ελπιουσιν
22 Then a blind and mute man being demon possessed, was brought to him. And he healed him, so as for the blind and mute man both to speak and to see.
τοτε {VAR1: προσηνεγκαν αυτω δαιμονιζομενον τυφλον και κωφον } {VAR2: προσηνεχθη αυτω δαιμονιζομενος τυφλος και κωφος } και εθεραπευσεν αυτον ωστε τον κωφον λαλειν και βλεπειν
23 And all the multitudes were amazed, and said, Is this not the son of David?
και εξισταντο παντες οι οχλοι και ελεγον μητι ουτος εστιν ο υιος δαυιδ
24 But when the Pharisees heard it, they said, This man does not cast out demons, except by Beelzebub the ruler of the demons.
οι δε φαρισαιοι ακουσαντες ειπον ουτος ουκ εκβαλλει τα δαιμονια ει μη εν τω βεελζεβουλ αρχοντι των δαιμονιων
25 And having known their thoughts Jesus said to them, Every kingdom divided against itself is brought to ruin, and every city or house divided against itself will not stand.
ειδως δε τας ενθυμησεις αυτων ειπεν αυτοις πασα βασιλεια μερισθεισα καθ εαυτης ερημουται και πασα πολις η οικια μερισθεισα καθ εαυτης ου σταθησεται
26 And if Satan casts out Satan, he is divided against himself. How then will his kingdom stand?
και ει ο σατανας τον σαταναν εκβαλλει εφ εαυτον εμερισθη πως ουν σταθησεται η βασιλεια αυτου
27 And if I cast out demons by Beelzebub, by whom do your sons cast them out? Because of this they will be your judges.
και ει εγω εν βεελζεβουλ εκβαλλω τα δαιμονια οι υιοι υμων εν τινι εκβαλλουσιν δια τουτο αυτοι κριται εσονται υμων
28 But if I cast out demons by the Spirit of God, then the kingdom of God has come near you.
ει δε εν πνευματι θεου εγω εκβαλλω τα δαιμονια αρα εφθασεν εφ υμας η βασιλεια του θεου
29 Or how can any man enter into the house of the strong man, and plunder his goods, unless he first binds the strong man? And then he will plunder his house.
η πως δυναται τις εισελθειν εις την οικιαν του ισχυρου και τα σκευη αυτου αρπασαι εαν μη πρωτον δηση τον ισχυρον και τοτε την οικιαν αυτου διαρπασει
30 He who is not with me is against me, and he who does not gather with me scatters.
ο μη ων μετ εμου κατ εμου εστιν και ο μη συναγων μετ εμου σκορπιζει
31 Because of this I say to you, every sin and blasphemy will be forgiven to men, but the blasphemy of the Spirit will not be forgiven men.
δια τουτο λεγω υμιν πασα αμαρτια και βλασφημια αφεθησεται τοις ανθρωποις η δε του πνευματος βλασφημια ουκ αφεθησεται
32 And whoever speaks a word against the Son of man, it will be forgiven him, but whoever speaks against the Holy Spirit, it will not be forgiven him, neither in the present age, nor in the one that is coming. (aiōn g165)
και ος εαν ειπη λογον κατα του υιου του ανθρωπου αφεθησεται αυτω ος δ αν ειπη κατα του πνευματος του αγιου ουκ αφεθησεται αυτω ουτε εν τουτω τω αιωνι ουτε εν τω μελλοντι (aiōn g165)
33 Either make the tree good, and its fruit good, or make the tree corrupt, and its fruit corrupt, for the tree is known by its fruit.
η ποιησατε το δενδρον καλον και τον καρπον αυτου καλον η ποιησατε το δενδρον σαπρον και τον καρπον αυτου σαπρον εκ γαρ του καρπου το δενδρον γινωσκεται
34 Ye offspring of vipers, how can ye, being evil, speak good things? For out of the abundance of the heart the mouth speaks.
γεννηματα εχιδνων πως δυνασθε αγαθα λαλειν πονηροι οντες εκ γαρ του περισσευματος της καρδιας το στομα λαλει
35 The good man out of his good treasure brings forth good things, and the evil man out of his evil treasure brings forth evil things.
ο αγαθος ανθρωπος εκ του αγαθου θησαυρου εκβαλλει αγαθα και ο πονηρος ανθρωπος εκ του πονηρου θησαυρου εκβαλλει πονηρα
36 But I say to you, that every idle word, whatever men may speak, they will render account about it in the day of judgment.
λεγω δε υμιν οτι παν ρημα αργον ο λαλησουσιν οι ανθρωποι αποδωσουσιν περι αυτου λογον εν ημερα κρισεως
37 For from thy words thou will be justified, and from thy words thou will be condemned.
εκ γαρ των λογων σου δικαιωθηση και εκ των λογων σου καταδικασθηση
38 Then some of the scholars and Pharisees answered, saying, Teacher, we want to see a sign from thee.
τοτε απεκριθησαν αυτω τινες των γραμματεων και φαρισαιων λεγοντες διδασκαλε θελομεν απο σου σημειον ιδειν
39 But having answered, he said to them, An evil and adulterous generation seeks after a sign, and no sign will be given to it except the sign of Jonah the prophet.
ο δε αποκριθεις ειπεν αυτοις γενεα πονηρα και μοιχαλις σημειον επιζητει και σημειον ου δοθησεται αυτη ει μη το σημειον ιωνα του προφητου
40 For as Jonah was in the belly of the sea-creature three days and three nights, so the Son of man will be in the heart of the earth three days and three nights.
ωσπερ γαρ ην ιωνας εν τη κοιλια του κητους τρεις ημερας και τρεις νυκτας ουτως εσται ο υιος του ανθρωπου εν τη καρδια της γης τρεις ημερας και τρεις νυκτας
41 The men of Nineveh will rise up in the judgment with this generation, and will condemn it, because they repented at the preaching of Jonah, and behold, a greater than Jonah is here.
ανδρες νινευιται αναστησονται εν τη κρισει μετα της γενεας ταυτης και κατακρινουσιν αυτην οτι μετενοησαν εις το κηρυγμα ιωνα και ιδου πλειον ιωνα ωδε
42 The queen of the south will rise up in the judgment with this generation, and will condemn it, because she came from the ends of the earth to hear the wisdom of Solomon, and behold, a greater than Solomon is here.
βασιλισσα νοτου εγερθησεται εν τη κρισει μετα της γενεας ταυτης και κατακρινει αυτην οτι ηλθεν εκ των περατων της γης ακουσαι την σοφιαν σολομωνος και ιδου πλειον σολομωνος ωδε
43 But when the unclean spirit goes forth out of the man, it passes through waterless places, seeking rest, and finds it not.
οταν δε το ακαθαρτον πνευμα εξελθη απο του ανθρωπου διερχεται δι ανυδρων τοπων ζητουν αναπαυσιν και ουχ ευρισκει
44 Then it says, I will return into my house from where I came out. And when it comes, it finds it empty, swept, and put in order.
τοτε λεγει εις τον οικον μου επιστρεψω οθεν εξηλθον και ελθον ευρισκει σχολαζοντα {VAR1: [και] } σεσαρωμενον και κεκοσμημενον
45 Then it goes, and takes with itself seven other spirits more evil than itself, and having enter in, they dwell there. And the last state of that man becomes worse than the first. So it will also be to this evil generation.
τοτε πορευεται και παραλαμβανει μεθ εαυτου επτα ετερα πνευματα πονηροτερα εαυτου και εισελθοντα κατοικει εκει και γινεται τα εσχατα του ανθρωπου εκεινου χειρονα των πρωτων ουτως εσται και τη γενεα ταυτη τη πονηρα
46 While he was still speaking to the multitudes, behold, his mother and his brothers had stood outside, seeking to speak to him.
ετι αυτου λαλουντος τοις οχλοις ιδου η μητηρ και οι αδελφοι αυτου ειστηκεισαν εξω ζητουντες αυτω λαλησαι
47 And some man said to him, Behold, thy mother and thy brothers stand outside, seeking to speak to thee.
{VAR2: [ειπεν δε τις αυτω ιδου η μητηρ σου και οι αδελφοι σου εξω εστηκασιν ζητουντες σοι λαλησαι] }
48 But having answered, he said to the man who told him, Who is my mother, and who are my brothers?
ο δε αποκριθεις ειπεν τω λεγοντι αυτω τις εστιν η μητηρ μου και τινες εισιν οι αδελφοι μου
49 And having stretched forth his hand towards his disciples, he said, Behold, my mother and my brothers.
και εκτεινας την χειρα {VAR1: [αυτου] } {VAR2: αυτου } επι τους μαθητας αυτου ειπεν ιδου η μητηρ μου και οι αδελφοι μου
50 For whoever does the will of my Father in the heavens, he is my brother, and sister, and mother.
οστις γαρ αν ποιηση το θελημα του πατρος μου του εν ουρανοις αυτος μου αδελφος και αδελφη και μητηρ εστιν
