< Luke 13 >
1 There were present at that season some that told him of the Galilaeans, whose blood Pilate had mingled with their sacrifices.
Παρῆσαν δέ τινες ἐν αὐτῷ τῷ καιρῷ, ἀπαγγέλλοντες αὐτῷ περὶ τῶν Γαλιλαίων, ὧν τὸ αἷμα Πιλᾶτος ἔμιξεν μετὰ τῶν θυσιῶν αὐτῶν.
2 And Jesus answering said to them, Suppose you that these Galilaeans were sinners above all the Galilaeans, because they suffered such things?
Καὶ ἀποκριθεὶς εἶπεν αὐτοῖς, “Δοκεῖτε ὅτι οἱ Γαλιλαῖοι οὗτοι, ἁμαρτωλοὶ παρὰ πάντας τοὺς Γαλιλαίους ἐγένοντο, ὅτι τοιαῦτα πεπόνθασιν;
3 I tell you, No: but, except you repent, you shall all likewise perish.
Οὐχί, λέγω ὑμῖν, ἀλλʼ ἐὰν μὴ μετανοῆτε, πάντες ὁμοίως ἀπολεῖσθε.
4 Or those eighteen, on whom the tower in Siloam fell, and slew them, think you that they were sinners above all men that dwelled in Jerusalem?
Ἢ ἐκεῖνοι οἱ δεκαοκτὼ ἐφʼ οὓς ἔπεσεν ὁ πύργος ἐν τῷ Σιλωὰμ καὶ ἀπέκτεινεν αὐτούς, δοκεῖτε ὅτι αὐτοὶ ὀφειλέται ἐγένοντο παρὰ πάντας τοὺς ἀνθρώπους τοὺς κατοικοῦντας Ἰερουσαλήμ;
5 I tell you, No: but, except you repent, you shall all likewise perish.
Οὐχί, λέγω ὑμῖν, ἀλλʼ ἐὰν μὴ μετανοῆτε, πάντες ὁμοίως ἀπολεῖσθε.”
6 He spoke also this parable; A certain man had a fig tree planted in his vineyard; and he came and sought fruit thereon, and found none.
Ἔλεγεν δὲ ταύτην τὴν παραβολήν: “Συκῆν εἶχέν τις πεφυτευμένην ἐν τῷ ἀμπελῶνι αὐτοῦ, καὶ ἦλθεν ζητῶν καρπὸν ἐν αὐτῇ, καὶ οὐχ εὗρεν.
7 Then said he to the dresser of his vineyard, Behold, these three years I come seeking fruit on this fig tree, and find none: cut it down; why encumbers it the ground?
Εἶπεν δὲ πρὸς τὸν ἀμπελουργόν, ‘Ἰδοὺ, τρία ἔτη ἀφʼ οὗ ἔρχομαι ζητῶν καρπὸν ἐν τῇ συκῇ ταύτῃ, καὶ οὐχ εὑρίσκω. Ἔκκοψον αὐτήν, ἵνα τί καὶ τὴν γῆν καταργεῖ;’
8 And he answering said to him, Lord, let it alone this year also, till I shall dig about it, and dung it:
Ὁ δὲ ἀποκριθεὶς λέγει αὐτῷ, ‘Κύριε, ἄφες αὐτὴν καὶ τοῦτο τὸ ἔτος, ἕως ὅτου σκάψω περὶ αὐτὴν καὶ βάλω κόπρια·
9 And if it bear fruit, well: and if not, then after that you shall cut it down.
κἂν μὲν ποιήσῃ καρπὸν εἰς τὸ μέλλον, εἰ δὲ μή γε ἐκκόψεις αὐτήν.’”
10 And he was teaching in one of the synagogues on the sabbath.
Ἦν δὲ διδάσκων ἐν μιᾷ τῶν συναγωγῶν ἐν τοῖς Σάββασιν.
11 And, behold, there was a woman which had a spirit of infirmity eighteen years, and was bowed together, and could in no wise lift up herself.
Καὶ ἰδοὺ, γυνὴ πνεῦμα ἔχουσα ἀσθενείας ἔτη δεκαοκτώ, καὶ ἦν συγκύπτουσα καὶ μὴ δυναμένη ἀνακύψαι εἰς τὸ παντελές.
12 And when Jesus saw her, he called her to him, and said to her, Woman, you are loosed from your infirmity.
Ἰδὼν δὲ αὐτὴν, ὁ ˚Ἰησοῦς προσεφώνησεν καὶ εἶπεν αὐτῇ, “Γύναι, ἀπολέλυσαι τῆς ἀσθενείας σου.”
13 And he laid his hands on her: and immediately she was made straight, and glorified God.
Καὶ ἐπέθηκεν αὐτῇ τὰς χεῖρας, καὶ παραχρῆμα ἀνωρθώθη καὶ ἐδόξαζεν τὸν ˚Θεόν.
14 And the ruler of the synagogue answered with indignation, because that Jesus had healed on the sabbath day, and said to the people, There are six days in which men ought to work: in them therefore come and be healed, and not on the sabbath day.
Ἀποκριθεὶς δὲ ὁ ἀρχισυνάγωγος, ἀγανακτῶν ὅτι τῷ Σαββάτῳ ἐθεράπευσεν ὁ ˚Ἰησοῦς, ἔλεγεν τῷ ὄχλῳ, ὅτι “Ἓξ ἡμέραι εἰσὶν ἐν αἷς δεῖ ἐργάζεσθαι· ἐν αὐταῖς οὖν ἐρχόμενοι θεραπεύεσθε, καὶ μὴ τῇ ἡμέρᾳ τοῦ Σαββάτου.”
15 The Lord then answered him, and said, You hypocrite, does not each one of you on the sabbath loose his ox or his ass from the stall, and lead him away to watering?
Ἀπεκρίθη δὲ αὐτῷ ὁ ˚Κύριος καὶ εἶπεν, “Ὑποκριταί! Ἕκαστος ὑμῶν τῷ Σαββάτῳ οὐ λύει τὸν βοῦν αὐτοῦ, ἢ τὸν ὄνον ἀπὸ τῆς φάτνης, καὶ ἀπαγαγὼν ποτίζει;
16 And should not this woman, being a daughter of Abraham, whom Satan has bound, see, these eighteen years, be loosed from this bond on the sabbath day?
Ταύτην δὲ θυγατέρα Ἀβραὰμ οὖσαν, ἣν ἔδησεν ὁ Σατανᾶς, ἰδοὺ, δέκα καὶ ὀκτὼ ἔτη, οὐκ ἔδει λυθῆναι ἀπὸ τοῦ δεσμοῦ τούτου τῇ ἡμέρᾳ τοῦ Σαββάτου;”
17 And when he had said these things, all his adversaries were ashamed: and all the people rejoiced for all the glorious things that were done by him.
Καὶ ταῦτα λέγοντος αὐτοῦ, κατῃσχύνοντο πάντες οἱ ἀντικείμενοι αὐτῷ, καὶ πᾶς ὁ ὄχλος ἔχαιρεν ἐπὶ πᾶσιν τοῖς ἐνδόξοις τοῖς γινομένοις ὑπʼ αὐτοῦ.
18 Then said he, To what is the kingdom of God like? and to what shall I resemble it?
Ἔλεγεν οὖν, “Τίνι ὁμοία ἐστὶν ἡ Βασιλεία τοῦ ˚Θεοῦ, καὶ τίνι ὁμοιώσω αὐτήν;
19 It is like a grain of mustard seed, which a man took, and cast into his garden; and it grew, and waxed a great tree; and the fowls of the air lodged in the branches of it.
Ὁμοία ἐστὶν κόκκῳ σινάπεως, ὃν λαβὼν, ἄνθρωπος ἔβαλεν εἰς κῆπον ἑαυτοῦ, καὶ ηὔξησεν καὶ ἐγένετο εἰς δένδρον, καὶ ‘Τὰ πετεινὰ τοῦ οὐρανοῦ κατεσκήνωσεν ἐν τοῖς κλάδοις αὐτοῦ.’”
20 And again he said, Whereunto shall I liken the kingdom of God?
Καὶ πάλιν εἶπεν, “Τίνι ὁμοιώσω τὴν Βασιλείαν τοῦ ˚Θεοῦ;
21 It is like leaven, which a woman took and hid in three measures of meal, till the whole was leavened.
Ὁμοία ἐστὶν ζύμῃ, ἣν λαβοῦσα, γυνὴ ἐνέκρυψεν εἰς ἀλεύρου σάτα τρία, ἕως οὗ ἐζυμώθη ὅλον.”
22 And he went through the cities and villages, teaching, and journeying toward Jerusalem.
Καὶ διεπορεύετο κατὰ πόλεις καὶ κώμας διδάσκων, καὶ πορείαν ποιούμενος εἰς Ἱεροσόλυμα.
23 Then said one to him, Lord, are there few that be saved? And he said to them,
Εἶπεν δέ τις αὐτῷ, “˚Κύριε, εἰ ὀλίγοι οἱ σῳζόμενοι;” Ὁ δὲ εἶπεν πρὸς αὐτούς,
24 Strive to enter in at the strait gate: for many, I say to you, will seek to enter in, and shall not be able.
“Ἀγωνίζεσθε εἰσελθεῖν διὰ τῆς στενῆς θύρας, ὅτι πολλοί, λέγω ὑμῖν, ζητήσουσιν εἰσελθεῖν καὶ οὐκ ἰσχύσουσιν.
25 When once the master of the house is risen up, and has shut to the door, and you begin to stand without, and to knock at the door, saying, Lord, Lord, open to us; and he shall answer and say to you, I know you not from where you are:
Ἀφʼ οὗ ἂν ἐγερθῇ ὁ οἰκοδεσπότης καὶ ἀποκλείσῃ τὴν θύραν, καὶ ἄρξησθε ἔξω ἑστάναι καὶ κρούειν τὴν θύραν λέγοντες, ‘Κύριε, ἄνοιξον ἡμῖν’· καὶ ἀποκριθεὶς ἐρεῖ ὑμῖν, ‘Οὐκ οἶδα ὑμᾶς, πόθεν ἐστέ.’
26 Then shall you begin to say, We have eaten and drunk in your presence, and you have taught in our streets.
Τότε ἄρξεσθε λέγειν, ‘Ἐφάγομεν ἐνώπιόν σου καὶ ἐπίομεν, καὶ ἐν ταῖς πλατείαις ἡμῶν ἐδίδαξας.’
27 But he shall say, I tell you, I know you not from where you are; depart from me, all you workers of iniquity.
Καὶ ἐρεῖ, λέγων ὑμῖν, ‘Οὐκ οἶδα πόθεν ἐστέ· “ἀπόστητε ἀπʼ ἐμοῦ, πάντες ἐργάται ἀδικίας”.’
28 There shall be weeping and gnashing of teeth, when you shall see Abraham, and Isaac, and Jacob, and all the prophets, in the kingdom of God, and you yourselves thrust out.
Ἐκεῖ ἔσται ὁ κλαυθμὸς καὶ ὁ βρυγμὸς τῶν ὀδόντων, ὅταν ὄψησθε Ἀβραὰμ, καὶ Ἰσαὰκ, καὶ Ἰακὼβ, καὶ πάντας τοὺς προφήτας, ἐν τῇ Βασιλείᾳ τοῦ ˚Θεοῦ, ὑμᾶς δὲ ἐκβαλλομένους ἔξω.
29 And they shall come from the east, and from the west, and from the north, and from the south, and shall sit down in the kingdom of God.
Καὶ ἥξουσιν ἀπὸ ἀνατολῶν καὶ δυσμῶν καὶ ἀπὸ βορρᾶ καὶ νότου, καὶ ἀνακλιθήσονται ἐν τῇ Βασιλείᾳ τοῦ ˚Θεοῦ.
30 And, behold, there are last which shall be first, and there are first which shall be last.
Καὶ ἰδοὺ, εἰσὶν ἔσχατοι οἳ ἔσονται πρῶτοι, καὶ εἰσὶν πρῶτοι οἳ ἔσονται ἔσχατοι.”
31 The same day there came certain of the Pharisees, saying to him, Get you out, and depart hence: for Herod will kill you.
Ἐν αὐτῇ τῇ ὥρᾳ προσῆλθάν τινες Φαρισαῖοι λέγοντες αὐτῷ, “Ἔξελθε καὶ πορεύου ἐντεῦθεν, ὅτι Ἡρῴδης θέλει σε ἀποκτεῖναι.”
32 And he said to them, Go you, and tell that fox, Behold, I cast out devils, and I do cures to day and to morrow, and the third day I shall be perfected.
Καὶ εἶπεν αὐτοῖς, “Πορευθέντες εἴπατε τῇ ἀλώπεκι ταύτῃ, ‘Ἰδοὺ, ἐκβάλλω δαιμόνια, καὶ ἰάσεις ἀποτελῶ σήμερον καὶ αὔριον, καὶ τῇ τρίτῃ τελειοῦμαι.’
33 Nevertheless I must walk to day, and to morrow, and the day following: for it cannot be that a prophet perish out of Jerusalem.
Πλὴν δεῖ με, σήμερον καὶ αὔριον καὶ τῇ ἐχομένῃ πορεύεσθαι, ὅτι οὐκ ἐνδέχεται προφήτην ἀπολέσθαι ἔξω Ἰερουσαλήμ.
34 O Jerusalem, Jerusalem, which kill the prophets, and stone them that are sent to you; how often would I have gathered your children together, as a hen does gather her brood under her wings, and you would not!
Ἰερουσαλὴμ, Ἰερουσαλήμ, ἡ ἀποκτείνουσα τοὺς προφήτας, καὶ λιθοβολοῦσα τοὺς ἀπεσταλμένους πρὸς αὐτήν, ποσάκις ἠθέλησα ἐπισυνάξαι τὰ τέκνα σου, ὃν τρόπον ὄρνις τὴν ἑαυτῆς νοσσιὰν ὑπὸ τὰς πτέρυγας, καὶ οὐκ ἠθελήσατε.
35 Behold, your house is left to you desolate: and truly I say to you, You shall not see me, until the time come when you shall say, Blessed is he that comes in the name of the Lord.
Ἰδοὺ, ἀφίεται ὑμῖν ὁ οἶκος ὑμῶν. Λέγω δὲ ὑμῖν, οὐ μὴ ἴδητέ με ἕως εἴπητε, ‘Εὐλογημένος ὁ ἐρχόμενος ἐν ὀνόματι ˚Κυρίου.’”
