Luke 16
1 He also said to his disciples, "There was a certain rich man who had a manager. An accusation was made to him that this man was wasting his possessions.
ελεγεν δε και προς τους μαθητας ανθρωπος τις ην πλουσιος ος ειχεν οικονομον και ουτος διεβληθη αυτω ως διασκορπιζων τα υπαρχοντα αυτου
2 He called him, and said to him, 'What is this that I hear about you? Give an accounting of your management, for you can no longer be manager.'
και φωνησας αυτον ειπεν αυτω τι τουτο ακουω περι σου αποδος τον λογον της οικονομιας σου ου γαρ δυνη ετι οικονομειν
3 "The manager said within himself, 'What will I do, seeing that my lord is taking away the management position from me? I do not have strength to dig. I am ashamed to beg.
ειπεν δε εν εαυτω ο οικονομος τι ποιησω οτι ο κυριος μου αφαιρειται την οικονομιαν απ εμου σκαπτειν ουκ ισχυω επαιτειν αισχυνομαι
4 I know what I will do, so that when I am removed from management, they may receive me into their houses.'
εγνων τι ποιησω ινα οταν μετασταθω εκ της οικονομιας δεξωνται με εις τους οικους {VAR1: εαυτων } {VAR2: αυτων }
5 Calling each one of his lord's debtors to him, he said to the first, 'How much do you owe to my lord?'
και προσκαλεσαμενος ενα εκαστον των χρεοφειλετων του κυριου εαυτου ελεγεν τω πρωτω ποσον οφειλεις τω κυριω μου
6 He said, 'A hundred batos of oil.' He said to him, 'Take your bill, and sit down quickly and write fifty.'
ο δε ειπεν εκατον βατους ελαιου ο δε ειπεν αυτω δεξαι σου τα γραμματα και καθισας ταχεως γραψον πεντηκοντα
7 Then he said to another, 'How much do you owe?' He said, 'A hundred cors of wheat.' He said to him, 'Take your bill, and write eighty.'
επειτα ετερω ειπεν συ δε ποσον οφειλεις ο δε ειπεν εκατον κορους σιτου λεγει αυτω δεξαι σου τα γραμματα και γραψον ογδοηκοντα
8 "His lord commended the dishonest manager for his shrewdness, for the people of this age are more shrewd in dealing with their own generation than the people of light. (aiōn g165)
και επηνεσεν ο κυριος τον οικονομον της αδικιας οτι φρονιμως εποιησεν οτι οι υιοι του αιωνος τουτου φρονιμωτεροι υπερ τους υιους του φωτος εις την γενεαν την εαυτων εισιν (aiōn g165)
9 And I say to you, make friends for yourselves by means of unrighteous mammon, so that when it is gone they may welcome you into the everlasting dwellings. (aiōnios g166)
και εγω υμιν λεγω εαυτοις ποιησατε φιλους εκ του μαμωνα της αδικιας ινα οταν εκλιπη δεξωνται υμας εις τας αιωνιους σκηνας (aiōnios g166)
10 He who is faithful in a very little is faithful also in much. He who is dishonest in a very little is also dishonest in much.
ο πιστος εν ελαχιστω και εν πολλω πιστος εστιν και ο εν ελαχιστω αδικος και εν πολλω αδικος εστιν
11 If therefore you have not been faithful in the unrighteous mammon, who will commit to your trust the true riches?
ει ουν εν τω αδικω μαμωνα πιστοι ουκ εγενεσθε το αληθινον τις υμιν πιστευσει
12 If you have not been faithful in that which is another's, who will give you that which is your own?
και ει εν τω αλλοτριω πιστοι ουκ εγενεσθε το {VAR1: ημετερον τις δωσει υμιν } {VAR2: υμετερον τις υμιν δωσει }
13 No servant can serve two masters, for either he will hate the one, and love the other; or else he will hold to one, and despise the other. You are not able to serve God and wealth."
ουδεις οικετης δυναται δυσιν κυριοις δουλευειν η γαρ τον ενα μισησει και τον ετερον αγαπησει η ενος ανθεξεται και του ετερου καταφρονησει ου δυνασθε θεω δουλευειν και μαμωνα
14 The Pharisees, who were lovers of money, also heard all these things, and they scoffed at him.
ηκουον δε ταυτα παντα οι φαρισαιοι φιλαργυροι υπαρχοντες και εξεμυκτηριζον αυτον
15 He said to them, "You are those who justify yourselves in the sight of people, but God knows your hearts. For that which is exalted among people is an abomination in the sight of God.
και ειπεν αυτοις υμεις εστε οι δικαιουντες εαυτους ενωπιον των ανθρωπων ο δε θεος γινωσκει τας καρδιας υμων οτι το εν ανθρωποις υψηλον βδελυγμα ενωπιον του θεου
16 The Law and the Prophets were until John. From that time the Good News of the Kingdom of God is preached, and everyone is forcing his way into it.
ο νομος και οι προφηται μεχρι ιωαννου απο τοτε η βασιλεια του θεου ευαγγελιζεται και πας εις αυτην βιαζεται
17 But it is easier for heaven and earth to pass away, than for one tiny stroke of a pen in the Law to become void.
ευκοπωτερον δε εστιν τον ουρανον και την γην παρελθειν η του νομου μιαν κεραιαν πεσειν
18 Everyone who divorces his wife, and marries another, commits adultery. He who marries one who is divorced from a husband commits adultery.
πας ο απολυων την γυναικα αυτου και γαμων ετεραν μοιχευει και ο απολελυμενην απο ανδρος γαμων μοιχευει
19 "Now there was a certain rich man, and he was clothed in purple and fine linen, living in luxury every day.
ανθρωπος δε τις ην πλουσιος και ενεδιδυσκετο πορφυραν και βυσσον ευφραινομενος καθ ημεραν λαμπρως
20 A certain beggar, named Lazarus, was placed at his gate, full of sores,
πτωχος δε τις ονοματι λαζαρος εβεβλητο προς τον πυλωνα αυτου ειλκωμενος
21 and desiring to be fed with the crumbs that fell from the rich man's table. Yes, even the dogs came and licked his sores.
και επιθυμων χορτασθηναι απο των πιπτοντων απο της τραπεζης του πλουσιου αλλα και οι κυνες ερχομενοι επελειχον τα ελκη αυτου
22 It happened that the beggar died, and that he was carried away by the angels to Abraham's bosom. The rich man also died, and was buried.
εγενετο δε αποθανειν τον πτωχον και απενεχθηναι αυτον υπο των αγγελων εις τον κολπον αβρααμ απεθανεν δε και ο πλουσιος και εταφη
23 In hell, he lifted up his eyes, being in torment, and saw Abraham far off, and Lazarus at his bosom. (Hadēs g86)
και εν τω αδη επαρας τους οφθαλμους αυτου υπαρχων εν βασανοις ορα αβρααμ απο μακροθεν και λαζαρον εν τοις κολποις αυτου (Hadēs g86)
24 He called out and said, 'Father Abraham, have mercy on me, and send Lazarus, that he may dip the tip of his finger in water, and cool my tongue. For I am in anguish in this flame.'
και αυτος φωνησας ειπεν πατερ αβρααμ ελεησον με και πεμψον λαζαρον ινα βαψη το ακρον του δακτυλου αυτου υδατος και καταψυξη την γλωσσαν μου οτι οδυνωμαι εν τη φλογι ταυτη
25 "But Abraham said, 'Son, remember that you, in your lifetime, received your good things, and Lazarus, in like manner, bad things. But now here he is comforted and you are in anguish.
ειπεν δε αβρααμ τεκνον μνησθητι οτι απελαβες τα αγαθα σου εν τη ζωη σου και λαζαρος ομοιως τα κακα νυν δε ωδε παρακαλειται συ δε οδυνασαι
26 Besides all this, between us and you there is a great gulf fixed, that those who want to pass from here to you are not able, and that none may cross over from there to us.'
και εν πασιν τουτοις μεταξυ ημων και υμων χασμα μεγα εστηρικται οπως οι θελοντες διαβηναι ενθεν προς υμας μη δυνωνται μηδε εκειθεν προς ημας διαπερωσιν
27 "He said, 'I ask you therefore, father, that you would send him to my father's house;
ειπεν δε ερωτω σε ουν πατερ ινα πεμψης αυτον εις τον οικον του πατρος μου
28 for I have five brothers, that he may testify to them, so they won't also come into this place of torment.'
εχω γαρ πεντε αδελφους οπως διαμαρτυρηται αυτοις ινα μη και αυτοι ελθωσιν εις τον τοπον τουτον της βασανου
29 "But Abraham said to him, 'They have Moses and the Prophets. Let them listen to them.'
λεγει δε αβρααμ εχουσιν μωυσεα και τους προφητας ακουσατωσαν αυτων
30 "He said, 'No, father Abraham, but if one goes to them from the dead, they will repent.'
ο δε ειπεν ουχι πατερ αβρααμ αλλ εαν τις απο νεκρων πορευθη προς αυτους μετανοησουσιν
31 "He said to him, 'If they do not listen to Moses and the Prophets, neither will they be persuaded if one rises from the dead.'"
ειπεν δε αυτω ει μωυσεως και των προφητων ουκ ακουουσιν ουδ εαν τις εκ νεκρων αναστη πεισθησονται
