Matthew 22
1 And Jesus, talking to them again in stories, said:
και αποκριθεις ο ιησους παλιν ειπεν εν παραβολαις αυτοις λεγων
2 The kingdom of heaven is like a certain king, who made a feast when his son was married,
ωμοιωθη η βασιλεια των ουρανων ανθρωπω βασιλει οστις εποιησεν γαμους τω υιω αυτου
3 And sent out his servants to get in the guests to the feast: and they would not come.
και απεστειλεν τους δουλους αυτου καλεσαι τους κεκλημενους εις τους γαμους και ουκ ηθελον ελθειν
4 Again he sent out other servants, with orders to say to the guests, See, I have made ready my feast: my oxen and my fat beasts have been put to death, and all things are ready: come to the feast.
παλιν απεστειλεν αλλους δουλους λεγων ειπατε τοις κεκλημενοις ιδου το αριστον μου ητοιμακα οι ταυροι μου και τα σιτιστα τεθυμενα και παντα ετοιμα δευτε εις τους γαμους
5 But they gave no attention, and went about their business, one to his farm, another to his trade:
οι δε αμελησαντες απηλθον ος μεν εις τον ιδιον αγρον ος δε επι την εμποριαν αυτου
6 And the rest put violent hands on his servants, and did evil to them, and put them to death.
οι δε λοιποι κρατησαντες τους δουλους αυτου υβρισαν και απεκτειναν
7 But the king was angry; and he sent his armies, and those who had put his servants to death he gave to destruction, burning down their town with fire.
ο δε βασιλευς ωργισθη και πεμψας τα στρατευματα αυτου απωλεσεν τους φονεις εκεινους και την πολιν αυτων ενεπρησεν
8 Then he said to his servants, The feast is ready but the guests were not good enough.
τοτε λεγει τοις δουλοις αυτου ο μεν γαμος ετοιμος εστιν οι δε κεκλημενοι ουκ ησαν αξιοι
9 Go then to the cross-roads, and get all those whom you see to come to the bride-feast.
πορευεσθε ουν επι τας διεξοδους των οδων και οσους εαν ευρητε καλεσατε εις τους γαμους
10 And those servants went out into the streets, and got together all those whom they came across, bad and good: and the feast was full of guests.
και εξελθοντες οι δουλοι εκεινοι εις τας οδους συνηγαγον παντας ους ευρον πονηρους τε και αγαθους και επλησθη ο {VAR1: νυμφων } {VAR2: γαμος } ανακειμενων
11 But when the king came in to see the guests, he saw there a man who had not on a guest's robe;
εισελθων δε ο βασιλευς θεασασθαι τους ανακειμενους ειδεν εκει ανθρωπον ουκ ενδεδυμενον ενδυμα γαμου
12 And he says to him, Friend, how came you in here not having a guest's robe? And he had nothing to say.
και λεγει αυτω εταιρε πως εισηλθες ωδε μη εχων ενδυμα γαμου ο δε εφιμωθη
13 Then the king said to the servants, Put cords round his hands and feet and put him out into the dark; there will be weeping and cries of sorrow.
τοτε ο βασιλευς ειπεν τοις διακονοις δησαντες αυτου ποδας και χειρας εκβαλετε αυτον εις το σκοτος το εξωτερον εκει εσται ο κλαυθμος και ο βρυγμος των οδοντων
14 For out of all to whom the good news has come, only a small number will get salvation.
πολλοι γαρ εισιν κλητοι ολιγοι δε εκλεκτοι
15 Then the Pharisees went and had a meeting to see how they might make use of his words to take him.
τοτε πορευθεντες οι φαρισαιοι συμβουλιον ελαβον οπως αυτον παγιδευσωσιν εν λογω
16 And they sent to him their disciples, with the Herodians, saying, Master, we see that you are true, and that you are teaching the true way of God, and have no fear of anyone, because you have no respect for a man's position.
και αποστελλουσιν αυτω τους μαθητας αυτων μετα των ηρωδιανων {VAR1: λεγοντας } {VAR2: λεγοντες } διδασκαλε οιδαμεν οτι αληθης ει και την οδον του θεου εν αληθεια διδασκεις και ου μελει σοι περι ουδενος ου γαρ βλεπεις εις προσωπον ανθρωπων
17 Give us, then, your opinion of this: Is it right to give tax to Caesar, or not?
{VAR1: ειπον } {VAR2: ειπε } ουν ημιν τι σοι δοκει εξεστιν δουναι κηνσον καισαρι η ου
18 But Jesus saw their trick and said, Oh false ones, why are you attempting to put me in the wrong?
γνους δε ο ιησους την πονηριαν αυτων ειπεν τι με πειραζετε υποκριται
19 Let me see the tax money. And they gave him a penny.
επιδειξατε μοι το νομισμα του κηνσου οι δε προσηνεγκαν αυτω δηναριον
20 And he said to them, Whose is this image and name on it?
και λεγει αυτοις τινος η εικων αυτη και η επιγραφη
21 They say to him, Caesar's. Then he said to them, Give to Caesar the things which are Caesar's, and to God the things which are God's.
λεγουσιν {VAR2: αυτω } καισαρος τοτε λεγει αυτοις αποδοτε ουν τα καισαρος καισαρι και τα του θεου τω θεω
22 And hearing it, they were full of wonder, and went away from him.
και ακουσαντες εθαυμασαν και αφεντες αυτον απηλθαν
23 On the same day there came to him the Sadducees, who say that there is no coming back from the dead: and they put a question to him, saying,
εν εκεινη τη ημερα προσηλθον αυτω σαδδουκαιοι λεγοντες μη ειναι αναστασιν και επηρωτησαν αυτον
24 Master, Moses said, If a man, at the time of his death, has no children, let his brother take his wife, and get a family for his brother;
λεγοντες διδασκαλε μωυσης ειπεν εαν τις αποθανη μη εχων τεκνα επιγαμβρευσει ο αδελφος αυτου την γυναικα αυτου και αναστησει σπερμα τω αδελφω αυτου
25 Now there were among us seven brothers; and the first was married and at his death, having no seed, gave his wife to his brother;
ησαν δε παρ ημιν επτα αδελφοι και ο πρωτος γημας ετελευτησεν και μη εχων σπερμα αφηκεν την γυναικα αυτου τω αδελφω αυτου
26 In the same way the second and the third, up to the seventh.
ομοιως και ο δευτερος και ο τριτος εως των επτα
27 And last of all the woman came to her end.
υστερον δε παντων απεθανεν η γυνη
28 When they come back from the dead, then, whose wife will she be of the seven? because they all had her.
εν τη αναστασει ουν τινος των επτα εσται γυνη παντες γαρ εσχον αυτην
29 But Jesus said to them in answer, You are in error, not having knowledge of the Writings, or of the power of God.
αποκριθεις δε ο ιησους ειπεν αυτοις πλανασθε μη ειδοτες τας γραφας μηδε την δυναμιν του θεου
30 For when they come back from the dead there are no husbands and wives, but they are as the angels in heaven.
εν γαρ τη αναστασει ουτε γαμουσιν ουτε γαμιζονται αλλ ως αγγελοι εν τω ουρανω εισιν
31 But about the dead coming back to life, have you no knowledge of what was said to you by God in the Writings:
περι δε της αναστασεως των νεκρων ουκ ανεγνωτε το ρηθεν υμιν υπο του θεου λεγοντος
32 I am the God of Abraham, and the God of Isaac, and the God of Jacob? God is not the God of the dead but of the living.
εγω ειμι ο θεος αβρααμ και ο θεος ισαακ και ο θεος ιακωβ ουκ εστιν [ο] θεος νεκρων αλλα ζωντων
33 And the people hearing it were surprised at his teaching.
και ακουσαντες οι οχλοι εξεπλησσοντο επι τη διδαχη αυτου
34 But the Pharisees, hearing how the mouths of the Sadducees had been stopped, came together;
οι δε φαρισαιοι ακουσαντες οτι εφιμωσεν τους σαδδουκαιους συνηχθησαν επι το αυτο
35 And one of them, a teacher of the law, put a question to him, testing him, and saying,
και επηρωτησεν εις εξ αυτων {VAR1: νομικος } {VAR2: [νομικος] } πειραζων αυτον
36 Master, which is the chief rule in the law?
διδασκαλε ποια εντολη μεγαλη εν τω νομω
37 And he said to him, Have love for the Lord your God with all your heart, and with all your soul, and with all your mind.
ο δε εφη αυτω αγαπησεις κυριον τον θεον σου εν ολη {VAR2: τη } καρδια σου και εν ολη τη ψυχη σου και εν ολη τη διανοια σου
38 This is the first and greatest rule.
αυτη εστιν η μεγαλη και πρωτη εντολη
39 And a second like it is this, Have love for your neighbour as for yourself.
δευτερα {VAR2: δε } ομοια αυτη αγαπησεις τον πλησιον σου ως σεαυτον
40 On these two rules all the law and the prophets are based.
εν ταυταις ταις δυσιν εντολαις ολος ο νομος κρεμαται και οι προφηται
41 Now while the Pharisees were together, Jesus put a question to them, saying,
συνηγμενων δε των φαρισαιων επηρωτησεν αυτους ο ιησους
42 What is your opinion of the Christ? whose son is he? They say to him, The Son of David.
λεγων τι υμιν δοκει περι του χριστου τινος υιος εστιν λεγουσιν αυτω του δαυιδ
43 He says to them, How then does David in the Spirit give him the name of Lord, saying,
λεγει αυτοις πως ουν δαυιδ εν πνευματι καλει αυτον κυριον λεγων
44 The Lord said to my Lord, Be seated at my right hand, till I put under your feet all those who are against you?
ειπεν κυριος τω κυριω μου καθου εκ δεξιων μου εως αν θω τους εχθρους σου υποκατω των ποδων σου
45 If David then gives him the name of Lord, how is he his son?
ει ουν δαυιδ καλει αυτον κυριον πως υιος αυτου εστιν
46 And no one was able to give him an answer, and so great was their fear of him, that from that day no one put any more questions to him.
και ουδεις εδυνατο αποκριθηναι αυτω λογον ουδε ετολμησεν τις απ εκεινης της ημερας επερωτησαι αυτον ουκετι
