< Luke 10 >
1 Now after these things, the Lord also appointed seventy others, and sent them two by two ahead of him into every city and place where he was about to come.
Μετὰ δὲ ταῦτα, ἀνέδειξεν ὁ ˚Κύριος ἑτέρους ἑβδομήκοντα δύο, καὶ ἀπέστειλεν αὐτοὺς ἀνὰ δύο πρὸ προσώπου αὐτοῦ, εἰς πᾶσαν πόλιν καὶ τόπον οὗ ἤμελλεν αὐτὸς ἔρχεσθαι.
2 Then he said to them, “The harvest is indeed plentiful, but the laborers are few. Pray therefore to the Lord of the harvest, that he may send out laborers into his harvest.
Ἔλεγεν δὲ πρὸς αὐτούς, “Ὁ μὲν θερισμὸς πολύς, οἱ δὲ ἐργάται ὀλίγοι. Δεήθητε οὖν τοῦ ˚Κυρίου τοῦ θερισμοῦ, ὅπως ἐργάτας ἐκβάλῃ εἰς τὸν θερισμὸν αὐτοῦ.
3 Go your ways. Behold, I send you out as lambs among wolves.
Ὑπάγετε ἰδοὺ, ἀποστέλλω ὑμᾶς ὡς ἄρνας ἐν μέσῳ λύκων.
4 Carry no purse, nor wallet, nor sandals. Greet no one on the way.
Μὴ βαστάζετε βαλλάντιον, μὴ πήραν, μὴ ὑποδήματα, καὶ μηδένα κατὰ τὴν ὁδὸν ἀσπάσησθε.
5 Into whatever house you enter, first say, ‘Peace be to this house.’
Εἰς ἣν δʼ ἂν εἰσέλθητε οἰκίαν, πρῶτον λέγετε, ‘Εἰρήνη τῷ οἴκῳ τούτῳ.’
6 If a son of peace is there, your peace will rest on him; but if not, it will return to you.
Καὶ ἐὰν ἐκεῖ ᾖ υἱὸς εἰρήνης, ἐπαναπαήσεται ἐπʼ αὐτὸν ἡ εἰρήνη ὑμῶν· εἰ δὲ μή γε ἐφʼ ὑμᾶς ἀνακάμψει.
7 Remain in that same house, eating and drinking the things they give, for the laborer is worthy of his wages. Do not go from house to house.
Ἐν αὐτῇ δὲ τῇ οἰκίᾳ μένετε, ἐσθίοντες καὶ πίνοντες τὰ παρʼ αὐτῶν, ἄξιος γὰρ ὁ ἐργάτης τοῦ μισθοῦ αὐτοῦ. Μὴ μεταβαίνετε ἐξ οἰκίας εἰς οἰκίαν.
8 Into whatever city you enter and they receive you, eat the things that are set before you.
Καὶ εἰς ἣν ἂν πόλιν εἰσέρχησθε, καὶ δέχωνται ὑμᾶς, ἐσθίετε τὰ παρατιθέμενα ὑμῖν.
9 Heal the sick who are there and tell them, ‘God’s Kingdom has come near to you.’
Καὶ θεραπεύετε τοὺς ἐν αὐτῇ ἀσθενεῖς, καὶ λέγετε αὐτοῖς, ‘Ἤγγικεν ἐφʼ ὑμᾶς ἡ Βασιλεία τοῦ ˚Θεοῦ.’
10 But into whatever city you enter and they do not receive you, go out into its streets and say,
Εἰς ἣν δʼ ἂν πόλιν εἰσέλθητε, καὶ μὴ δέχωνται ὑμᾶς, ἐξελθόντες εἰς τὰς πλατείας αὐτῆς εἴπατε,
11 ‘Even the dust from your city that clings to us, we wipe off against you. Nevertheless know this, that God’s Kingdom has come near to you.’
‘Καὶ τὸν κονιορτὸν τὸν κολληθέντα ἡμῖν ἐκ τῆς πόλεως ὑμῶν εἰς τοὺς πόδας ἀπομασσόμεθα ὑμῖν· πλὴν τοῦτο γινώσκετε ὅτι ἤγγικεν ἡ Βασιλεία τοῦ ˚Θεοῦ.’
12 I tell you, it will be more tolerable in that day for Sodom than for that city.
Λέγω ὑμῖν ὅτι Σοδόμοις ἐν τῇ ἡμέρᾳ ἐκείνῃ ἀνεκτότερον ἔσται, ἢ τῇ πόλει ἐκείνῃ.
13 “Woe to you, Chorazin! Woe to you, Bethsaida! For if the mighty works had been done in Tyre and Sidon which were done in you, they would have repented long ago, sitting in sackcloth and ashes.
Οὐαί σοι, Χοραζίν! Οὐαί σοι, Βηθσαϊδά! Ὅτι εἰ ἐν Τύρῳ καὶ Σιδῶνι ἐγενήθησαν αἱ δυνάμεις, αἱ γενόμεναι ἐν ὑμῖν, πάλαι ἂν ἐν σάκκῳ καὶ σποδῷ καθήμενοι μετενόησαν.
14 But it will be more tolerable for Tyre and Sidon in the judgment than for you.
Πλὴν Τύρῳ καὶ Σιδῶνι, ἀνεκτότερον ἔσται ἐν τῇ κρίσει ἢ ὑμῖν.
15 You, Capernaum, who are exalted to heaven, will be brought down to Hades (Hadēs ).
Καὶ σύ, Καφαρναούμ, μὴ ἕως οὐρανοῦ ὑψωθήσῃ; Ἕως ἍΙδου καταβήσῃ. (Hadēs )
16 Whoever listens to you listens to me, and whoever rejects you rejects me. Whoever rejects me rejects him who sent me.”
Ὁ ἀκούων ὑμῶν, ἐμοῦ ἀκούει, καὶ ὁ ἀθετῶν ὑμᾶς, ἐμὲ ἀθετεῖ· ὁ δὲ ἐμὲ ἀθετῶν, ἀθετεῖ τὸν ἀποστείλαντά με.”
17 The seventy returned with joy, saying, “Lord, even the demons are subject to us in your name!”
Ὑπέστρεψαν δὲ οἱ ἑβδομήκοντα δύο μετὰ χαρᾶς λέγοντες, “˚Κύριε, καὶ τὰ δαιμόνια ὑποτάσσεται ἡμῖν ἐν τῷ ὀνόματί σου.”
18 He said to them, “I saw Satan having fallen like lightning from heaven.
Εἶπεν δὲ αὐτοῖς, “Ἐθεώρουν τὸν Σατανᾶν ὡς ἀστραπὴν ἐκ τοῦ οὐρανοῦ πεσόντα.
19 Behold, I give you authority to tread on serpents and scorpions, and over all the power of the enemy. Nothing will in any way hurt you.
Ἰδοὺ, δέδωκα ὑμῖν τὴν ἐξουσίαν τοῦ πατεῖν ἐπάνω ὄφεων καὶ σκορπίων, καὶ ἐπὶ πᾶσαν τὴν δύναμιν τοῦ ἐχθροῦ, καὶ οὐδὲν ὑμᾶς οὐ μὴ ἀδικήσῃ.
20 Nevertheless, do not rejoice in this, that the spirits are subject to you, but rejoice that your names are written in heaven.”
Πλὴν ἐν τούτῳ μὴ χαίρετε ὅτι τὰ πνεύματα ὑμῖν ὑποτάσσεται, χαίρετε δὲ ὅτι τὰ ὀνόματα ὑμῶν ἐγγέγραπται ἐν τοῖς οὐρανοῖς.”
21 In that same hour, Jesus rejoiced in the Holy Spirit, and said, “I thank you, O Father, Lord of heaven and earth, that you have hidden these things from the wise and understanding, and revealed them to little children. Yes, Father, for so it was well-pleasing in your sight.”
Ἐν αὐτῇ τῇ ὥρᾳ, ἠγαλλιάσατο τῷ ˚Πνεύματι τῷ Ἁγίῳ καὶ εἶπεν, “Ἐξομολογοῦμαί σοι, Πάτερ, ˚Κύριε τοῦ οὐρανοῦ καὶ τῆς γῆς, ὅτι ἀπέκρυψας ταῦτα ἀπὸ σοφῶν καὶ συνετῶν, καὶ ἀπεκάλυψας αὐτὰ νηπίοις. Ναί, ὁ Πατήρ, ὅτι οὕτως εὐδοκία ἐγένετο ἔμπροσθέν σου.
22 Turning to the disciples, he said, “All things have been delivered to me by my Father. No one knows who the Son is, except the Father, and who the Father is, except the Son, and he to whomever the Son desires to reveal him.”
Πάντα μοι παρεδόθη ὑπὸ τοῦ Πατρός μου, καὶ οὐδεὶς γινώσκει τίς ἐστιν ὁ Υἱὸς, εἰ μὴ ὁ Πατήρ, καὶ τίς ἐστιν ὁ Πατὴρ, εἰ μὴ ὁ Υἱὸς καὶ ᾧ ἐὰν βούληται ὁ Υἱὸς ἀποκαλύψαι.”
23 Turning to the disciples, he said privately, “Blessed are the eyes which see the things that you see,
Καὶ στραφεὶς πρὸς τοὺς μαθητὰς κατʼ ἰδίαν, εἶπεν, “Μακάριοι οἱ ὀφθαλμοὶ οἱ βλέποντες ἃ βλέπετε!
24 for I tell you that many prophets and kings desired to see the things which you see, and did not see them, and to hear the things which you hear, and did not hear them.”
Λέγω γὰρ ὑμῖν ὅτι πολλοὶ προφῆται καὶ βασιλεῖς ἠθέλησαν ἰδεῖν ἃ ὑμεῖς βλέπετε, καὶ οὐκ εἶδαν, καὶ ἀκοῦσαι ἃ ἀκούετε, καὶ οὐκ ἤκουσαν.”
25 Behold, a certain lawyer stood up and tested him, saying, "Teacher, what shall I do to inherit consummate (aiōnios ) life?"
Καὶ ἰδοὺ, νομικός τις ἀνέστη, ἐκπειράζων αὐτὸν λέγων, “Διδάσκαλε, τί ποιήσας, ζωὴν αἰώνιον κληρονομήσω;” (aiōnios )
26 He said to him, “What is written in the law? How do you read it?”
Ὁ δὲ εἶπεν πρὸς αὐτόν, “Ἐν τῷ νόμῳ τί γέγραπται; Πῶς ἀναγινώσκεις;”
27 He answered, “You shall love the Lord your God with all your heart, with all your soul, with all your strength, and with all your mind; and your neighbor as yourself.”
Ὁ δὲ ἀποκριθεὶς εἶπεν, “‘Ἀγαπήσεις ˚Κύριον τὸν ˚Θεόν σου, ἐξ ὅλης καρδίας σου, καὶ ἐν ὅλῃ τῇ ψυχῇ σου, καὶ ἐν ὅλῃ τῇ ἰσχύϊ σου, καὶ ἐν ὅλῃ τῇ διανοίᾳ σου’, καὶ, ‘Τὸν πλησίον σου ὡς σεαυτόν.’”
28 He said to him, “You have answered correctly. Do this, and you will live.”
Εἶπεν δὲ αὐτῷ, “Ὀρθῶς ἀπεκρίθης. Τοῦτο ποίει, καὶ ζήσῃ.”
29 But he, desiring to justify himself, asked Jesus, “Who is my neighbor?”
Ὁ δὲ θέλων δικαιῶσαι ἑαυτὸν, εἶπεν πρὸς τὸν ˚Ἰησοῦν, “Καὶ τίς ἐστίν μου πλησίον;”
30 Jesus answered, “A certain man was going down from Jerusalem to Jericho, and he fell among robbers, who both stripped him and beat him, and departed, leaving him half dead.
Ὑπολαβὼν ὁ ˚Ἰησοῦς εἶπεν, “Ἄνθρωπός τις κατέβαινεν ἀπὸ Ἰερουσαλὴμ εἰς Ἰεριχὼ, καὶ λῃσταῖς περιέπεσεν, οἳ καὶ ἐκδύσαντες αὐτὸν, καὶ πληγὰς ἐπιθέντες, ἀπῆλθον ἀφέντες ἡμιθανῆ.
31 By chance a certain priest was going down that way. When he saw him, he passed by on the other side.
Κατὰ συγκυρίαν δὲ ἱερεύς τις κατέβαινεν ἐν τῇ ὁδῷ ἐκείνῃ, καὶ ἰδὼν αὐτὸν ἀντιπαρῆλθεν.
32 In the same way a Levite also, when he came to the place and saw him, passed by on the other side.
Ὁμοίως δὲ καὶ Λευίτης γενόμενος κατὰ τὸν τόπον, ἐλθὼν καὶ ἰδὼν ἀντιπαρῆλθεν.
33 But a certain Samaritan, as he traveled, came where he was. When he saw him, he was moved with compassion,
Σαμαρείτης δέ τις ὁδεύων ἦλθεν κατʼ αὐτὸν, καὶ ἰδὼν ἐσπλαγχνίσθη
34 came to him, and bound up his wounds, pouring on oil and wine. He set him on his own animal, brought him to an inn, and took care of him.
καὶ προσελθὼν, κατέδησεν τὰ τραύματα αὐτοῦ, ἐπιχέων ἔλαιον καὶ οἶνον, ἐπιβιβάσας δὲ αὐτὸν ἐπὶ τὸ ἴδιον κτῆνος, ἤγαγεν αὐτὸν εἰς πανδοχεῖον καὶ ἐπεμελήθη αὐτοῦ.
35 On the next day, when he departed, he took out two denarii, gave them to the host, and said to him, ‘Take care of him. Whatever you spend beyond that, I will repay you when I return.’
Καὶ ἐπὶ τὴν αὔριον ἐκβαλὼν, ἔδωκεν δύο δηνάρια τῷ πανδοχεῖ, καὶ εἶπεν, ‘Ἐπιμελήθητι αὐτοῦ, καὶ ὅ τι ἂν προσδαπανήσῃς, ἐγὼ ἐν τῷ ἐπανέρχεσθαί με ἀποδώσω σοι.’
36 Now which of these three do you think seemed to be a neighbor to him who fell among the robbers?”
Τίς τούτων τῶν τριῶν πλησίον δοκεῖ σοι γεγονέναι, τοῦ ἐμπεσόντος εἰς τοὺς λῃστάς;”
37 He said, “He who showed mercy on him.” Then Jesus said to him, “Go and do likewise.”
Ὁ δὲ εἶπεν, “Ὁ ποιήσας τὸ ἔλεος μετʼ αὐτοῦ.” Εἶπεν δὲ αὐτῷ ὁ ˚Ἰησοῦς, “Πορεύου καὶ σὺ ποίει ὁμοίως.”
38 As they went on their way, he entered into a certain village, and a certain woman named Martha received him into her house.
Ἐν δὲ τῷ πορεύεσθαι αὐτοὺς, αὐτὸς εἰσῆλθεν εἰς κώμην τινά· γυνὴ δέ τις ὀνόματι Μάρθα ὑπεδέξατο αὐτὸν,
39 She had a sister called Mary, who also sat at Jesus’ feet and heard his word.
καὶ τῇδε ἦν ἀδελφὴ καλουμένη Μαριάμ, ἣ καὶ παρακαθεσθεῖσα πρὸς τοὺς πόδας τοῦ ˚Ἰησοῦ, ἤκουεν τὸν λόγον αὐτοῦ.
40 But Martha was distracted with much serving, and she came up to him, and said, “Lord, do not you care that my sister left me to serve alone? Ask her therefore to help me.”
Ἡ δὲ Μάρθα περιεσπᾶτο περὶ πολλὴν διακονίαν· ἐπιστᾶσα δὲ εἶπεν, “˚Κύριε, οὐ μέλει σοι ὅτι ἡ ἀδελφή μου μόνην με κατέλιπεν διακονεῖν; Εἰπὲ οὖν αὐτῇ ἵνα μοι συναντιλάβηται!”
41 Jesus answered her, “Martha, Martha, you are anxious and troubled about many things,
Ἀποκριθεὶς δὲ εἶπεν αὐτῇ ὁ ˚Κύριος, “Μάρθα, Μάρθα, μεριμνᾷς καὶ θορυβάζῃ περὶ πολλά,
42 but one thing is needed. Mary has chosen the good part, which will not be taken away from her.”
ἑνὸς δέ ἐστιν χρεία· Μαριὰμ γὰρ τὴν ἀγαθὴν μερίδα ἐξελέξατο, ἥτις οὐκ ἀφαιρεθήσεται ἀπʼ αὐτῆς.”
