< Luke 18 >

1 AND he spake also a parable to them, that in all time (men) should pray and not weary.
Ἔλεγεν ⸀δὲπαραβολὴν αὐτοῖς πρὸς τὸ δεῖν πάντοτε προσεύχεσθαι ⸀αὐτοὺςκαὶ μὴ ἐγκακεῖν,
2 There was a judge in a certain city who of Aloha was not afraid, and of men was not regardful.
λέγων· Κριτής τις ἦν ἔν τινι πόλει τὸν θεὸν μὴ φοβούμενος καὶ ἄνθρωπον μὴ ἐντρεπόμενος.
3 But a certain widow was in that city, who came to him, saying, Avenge me of my adversary.
χήρα δὲ ἦν ἐν τῇ πόλει ἐκείνῃ καὶ ἤρχετο πρὸς αὐτὸν λέγουσα· Ἐκδίκησόν με ἀπὸ τοῦ ἀντιδίκου μου.
4 And he was not willing long time; but afterward he said within himself, If of Aloha I am not afraid, and of men am not regardful,
καὶ οὐκ ⸀ἤθελενἐπὶ χρόνον, μετὰ ⸂ταῦτα δὲ εἶπεν ἐν ἑαυτῷ· Εἰ καὶ τὸν θεὸν οὐ φοβοῦμαι ⸂οὐδὲ ἄνθρωπον ἐντρέπομαι,
5 yet, because this widow wearies me, I will avenge her, that in all time she come not molesting me.
διά γε τὸ παρέχειν μοι κόπον τὴν χήραν ταύτην ἐκδικήσω αὐτήν, ἵνα μὴ εἰς τέλος ἐρχομένη ὑπωπιάζῃ με.
6 And our Lord said, Hear what saith the unrighteous judge.
εἶπεν δὲ ὁ κύριος· Ἀκούσατε τί ὁ κριτὴς τῆς ἀδικίας λέγει·
7 But shall not Aloha do vengeance for his chosen, who cry to him by day and by night, and prolong his spirit towards them?
ὁ δὲ θεὸς οὐ μὴ ποιήσῃ τὴν ἐκδίκησιν τῶν ἐκλεκτῶν αὐτοῦ τῶν βοώντων ⸀αὐτῷἡμέρας καὶ νυκτός, καὶ ⸀μακροθυμεῖἐπʼ αὐτοῖς;
8 I tell you he will avenge them speedily. Nevertheless, when the Son of man shall come, will he find faith upon the earth?
λέγω ὑμῖν ὅτι ποιήσει τὴν ἐκδίκησιν αὐτῶν ἐν τάχει. πλὴν ὁ υἱὸς τοῦ ἀνθρώπου ἐλθὼν ἆρα εὑρήσει τὴν πίστιν ἐπὶ τῆς γῆς;
9 And he spake this parable against some who trusted in themselves that they were just, and despised all (men):
Εἶπεν δὲ ⸀καὶπρός τινας τοὺς πεποιθότας ἐφʼ ἑαυτοῖς ὅτι εἰσὶν δίκαιοι καὶ ἐξουθενοῦντας τοὺς λοιποὺς τὴν παραβολὴν ταύτην·
10 Two men went up to the temple to pray, the one a Pharisha, the other a publican;
Ἄνθρωποι δύο ἀνέβησαν εἰς τὸ ἱερὸν προσεύξασθαι, ⸀ὁεἷς Φαρισαῖος καὶ ὁ ἕτερος τελώνης.
11 and, behold, the Pharisha stood (and) within himself these words prayed: Aloha, I thank thee that I am not as the rest of men, rapacious and unjust, and adulterers; nor as this publican.
ὁ Φαρισαῖος σταθεὶς ⸂πρὸς ἑαυτὸν ταῦτα προσηύχετο· Ὁ θεός, εὐχαριστῶ σοι ὅτι οὐκ εἰμὶ ⸀ὥσπεροἱ λοιποὶ τῶν ἀνθρώπων, ἅρπαγες, ἄδικοι, μοιχοί, ἢ καὶ ὡς οὗτος ὁ τελώνης·
12 But I fast twice in the week, and tithe whatever I possess.
νηστεύω δὶς τοῦ σαββάτου, ⸀ἀποδεκατῶπάντα ὅσα κτῶμαι.
13 But that publican stood from afar, and would not even his eyes lift up to heaven, but smote upon his breast, saying, Aloha, be merciful to me a sinner!
⸂ὁ δὲ τελώνης μακρόθεν ἑστὼς οὐκ ἤθελεν οὐδὲ τοὺς ὀφθαλμοὺς ⸂ἐπᾶραι εἰς τὸν οὐρανόν, ἀλλʼ ⸀ἔτυπτετὸ στῆθος ⸀αὐτοῦλέγων· Ὁ θεός, ἱλάσθητί μοι τῷ ἁμαρτωλῷ.
14 I tell you that this one went down justified to his house, rather than that Pharisha. For every man who exalteth himself shall be humbled, and every one who humbleth himself shall be exalted.
λέγω ὑμῖν, κατέβη οὗτος δεδικαιωμένος εἰς τὸν οἶκον αὐτοῦ ⸂παρʼ ἐκεῖνον· ὅτι πᾶς ὁ ὑψῶν ἑαυτὸν ταπεινωθήσεται, ὁ δὲ ταπεινῶν ἑαυτὸν ὑψωθήσεται.
15 Then they brought to him infants, that he should touch them: and the disciples saw it, and rebuked them.
Προσέφερον δὲ αὐτῷ καὶ τὰ βρέφη ἵνα αὐτῶν ἅπτηται· ἰδόντες δὲ οἱ μαθηταὶ ⸀ἐπετίμωναὐτοῖς.
16 But Jeshu called them, and said to them, Suffer children to come to me, and forbid them not; for of those who are as these,
ὁ δὲ Ἰησοῦς ⸂προσεκαλέσατο αὐτὰ λέγων· Ἄφετε τὰ παιδία ἔρχεσθαι πρός με καὶ μὴ κωλύετε αὐτά, τῶν γὰρ τοιούτων ἐστὶν ἡ βασιλεία τοῦ θεοῦ.
17 of them is the kingdom of heaven. Amen I say to you, That whoever does not receive the kingdom of Aloha as a child, shall not enter into it.
ἀμὴν λέγω ὑμῖν, ὃς ⸀ἂνμὴ δέξηται τὴν βασιλείαν τοῦ θεοῦ ὡς παιδίον, οὐ μὴ εἰσέλθῃ εἰς αὐτήν.
18 AND one of the rulers asked him, saying, Good Teacher, what shall I do that I may inherit eternal life? (aiōnios g166)
Καὶ ἐπηρώτησέν τις αὐτὸν ἄρχων λέγων· Διδάσκαλε ἀγαθέ, τί ποιήσας ζωὴν αἰώνιον κληρονομήσω; (aiōnios g166)
19 Jeshu saith to him, Why callest thou me good, and none is good but one, Aloha?
εἶπεν δὲ αὐτῷ ὁ Ἰησοῦς· Τί με λέγεις ἀγαθόν; οὐδεὶς ἀγαθὸς εἰ μὴ εἷς ὁ θεός.
20 The commandments thou knowest, Thou shalt not kill, and, Thou shalt not commit adultery, and, Thou shalt not steal, and, Thou shalt not witness false testimony, Honour thy father and thy mother.
τὰς ἐντολὰς οἶδας· Μὴ μοιχεύσῃς, Μὴ φονεύσῃς, Μὴ κλέψῃς, Μὴ ψευδομαρτυρήσῃς, Τίμα τὸν πατέρα σου καὶ τὴν ⸀μητέρα
21 He saith to him, These all have I kept from my childhood.
ὁ δὲ εἶπεν· Ταῦτα πάντα ⸀ἐφύλαξαἐκ νεότητος ⸀μου
22 But when Jeshu heard this, he said to him, One thing is lacking with thee; go, sell whatever thou hast, and give to the poor, and thou shalt have treasure in heaven, and come after me.
ἀκούσας ⸀δὲὁ Ἰησοῦς εἶπεν αὐτῷ· Ἔτι ἕν σοι λείπει· πάντα ὅσα ἔχεις πώλησον καὶ διάδος πτωχοῖς, καὶ ἕξεις θησαυρὸν ἐν ⸀οὐρανοῖς καὶ δεῦρο ἀκολούθει μοι.
23 But he, when he heard these words, was grieved; for he was very rich.
ὁ δὲ ἀκούσας ταῦτα περίλυπος ⸀ἐγενήθη ἦν γὰρ πλούσιος σφόδρα.
24 And when Jeshu saw that he was grieved, he said, How difficult is it to those who have riches to enter into the kingdom of Aloha!
Ἰδὼν δὲ αὐτὸν ὁ ⸀Ἰησοῦςεἶπεν· Πῶς δυσκόλως οἱ τὰ χρήματα ἔχοντες ⸂εἰς τὴν βασιλείαν τοῦ θεοῦ εἰσπορεύονται·
25 It is easier for a camel into the aperture of a needle to enter, than the rich into the kingdom of Aloha.
εὐκοπώτερον γάρ ἐστιν κάμηλον διὰ ⸂τρήματος βελόνης εἰσελθεῖν ἢ πλούσιον εἰς τὴν βασιλείαν τοῦ θεοῦ εἰσελθεῖν.
26 They who heard said to him, And who can be saved?
Εἶπαν δὲ οἱ ἀκούσαντες· Καὶ τίς δύναται σωθῆναι;
27 But Jeshu said, Those (things) which with the sons of men are not possible, with Aloha are possible to be done.
ὁ δὲ εἶπεν· Τὰ ἀδύνατα παρὰ ἀνθρώποις δυνατὰ ⸂παρὰ τῷ θεῷ ἐστιν.
28 Shemun Kipha said to him, Behold, we have forsaken every thing, and have come after thee.
Εἶπεν δὲ ⸀ὁΠέτρος· Ἰδοὺ ἡμεῖς ⸂ἀφέντες τὰ ἴδια ἠκολουθήσαμέν σοι.
29 Jeshu saith to him, Amen I say to you, That no man who leaveth houses, or fathers, or brethren, or wife, or children, for the kingdom of Aloha,
ὁ δὲ εἶπεν αὐτοῖς· Ἀμὴν λέγω ὑμῖν ὅτι οὐδείς ἐστιν ὃς ἀφῆκεν οἰκίαν ἢ ⸂γυναῖκα ἢ ἀδελφοὺς ἢ γονεῖς ἢ τέκνα ἕνεκεν τῆς βασιλείας τοῦ θεοῦ,
30 and shall not receive by two-fold (as) many in this time, and in the world that cometh the life that is eternal. (aiōn g165, aiōnios g166)
ὃς ⸀οὐχὶμὴ ⸀ἀπολάβῃπολλαπλασίονα ἐν τῷ καιρῷ τούτῳ καὶ ἐν τῷ αἰῶνι τῷ ἐρχομένῳ ζωὴν αἰώνιον. (aiōn g165, aiōnios g166)
31 AND Jeshu took the twelve, and said to them, Behold, we go up to Urishlem, and shall be fulfilled all (things) that are written in the prophets concerning the Son of man.
Παραλαβὼν δὲ τοὺς δώδεκα εἶπεν πρὸς αὐτούς· Ἰδοὺ ἀναβαίνομεν εἰς ⸀Ἰερουσαλήμ καὶ τελεσθήσεται πάντα τὰ γεγραμμένα διὰ τῶν προφητῶν τῷ υἱῷ τοῦ ἀνθρώπου·
32 For he will be delivered to the Gentiles; and they will deride him, and spit in his face,
παραδοθήσεται γὰρ τοῖς ἔθνεσιν καὶ ἐμπαιχθήσεται καὶ ὑβρισθήσεται καὶ ἐμπτυσθήσεται,
33 and will scourge him, and maltreat him, and kill him; and the third day he shall arise.
καὶ μαστιγώσαντες ἀποκτενοῦσιν αὐτόν, καὶ τῇ ἡμέρᾳ τῇ τρίτῃ ἀναστήσεται.
34 But not one of these understood they: for this word was hidden from them, and they knew not those sayings which were spoken with them.
καὶ αὐτοὶ οὐδὲν τούτων συνῆκαν, καὶ ἦν τὸ ῥῆμα τοῦτο κεκρυμμένον ἀπʼ αὐτῶν, καὶ οὐκ ἐγίνωσκον τὰ λεγόμενα.
35 And as he drew nigh to Jirichu, a certain blind man was sitting by the road-side, and begging.
Ἐγένετο δὲ ἐν τῷ ἐγγίζειν αὐτὸν εἰς Ἰεριχὼ τυφλός τις ἐκάθητο παρὰ τὴν ὁδὸν ⸀ἐπαιτῶν
36 And he heard the voice of the multitude as it was passing, and asked what was this.
ἀκούσας δὲ ὄχλου διαπορευομένου ἐπυνθάνετο ⸀τίεἴη τοῦτο·
37 They say to him, Jeshu Natsroya passeth.
ἀπήγγειλαν δὲ αὐτῷ ὅτι Ἰησοῦς ὁ Ναζωραῖος παρέρχεται.
38 And he cried and said, Jeshu bar David, have mercy on me!
καὶ ἐβόησεν λέγων· Ἰησοῦ υἱὲ Δαυίδ, ἐλέησόν με.
39 And they who went before Jeshu rebuked him, that he might be silent: but he cried out the more, Son of David, have mercy on me!
καὶ οἱ προάγοντες ἐπετίμων αὐτῷ ἵνα ⸀σιγήσῃ αὐτὸς δὲ πολλῷ μᾶλλον ἔκραζεν· Υἱὲ Δαυίδ, ἐλέησόν με.
40 And Jeshu stood, and commanded that they should lead him unto him. And when he, approached him, he asked him and said to him,
σταθεὶς δὲ ⸀ὁἸησοῦς ἐκέλευσεν αὐτὸν ἀχθῆναι πρὸς αὐτόν. ἐγγίσαντος δὲ αὐτοῦ ἐπηρώτησεν αὐτόν·
41 What wilt thou I shall do for thee? And he said, My Lord, that I may see.
⸀Τίσοι θέλεις ποιήσω; ὁ δὲ εἶπεν· Κύριε, ἵνα ἀναβλέψω.
42 And Jeshu said to him, See! thy faith hath saved thee.
καὶ ὁ Ἰησοῦς εἶπεν αὐτῷ· Ἀνάβλεψον· ἡ πίστις σου σέσωκέν σε.
43 And in an instant he saw, and came after him, and glorified Aloha: and all the people, when they saw, gave praise to Aloha.
καὶ παραχρῆμα ἀνέβλεψεν, καὶ ἠκολούθει αὐτῷ δοξάζων τὸν θεόν. καὶ πᾶς ὁ λαὸς ἰδὼν ἔδωκεν αἶνον τῷ θεῷ.
