Luke 6
1 On the second major Sabbath, Jesus was going through the grainfields, and his disciples were plucking heads of grain, rubbing off the husks in their hands, and eating them.
Ἐγένετο δὲ ἐν σαββάτῳ (δευτεροπρώτῳ *K*) διαπορεύεσθαι αὐτὸν διὰ (τῶν *k*) σπορίμων, καὶ ἔτιλλον οἱ μαθηταὶ αὐτοῦ καὶ ἤσθιον τοὺς στάχυας ψώχοντες ταῖς χερσίν.
2 But some of the Pharisees said to them, “Why are you doing what is not lawful to do on the Sabbath?”
τινὲς δὲ τῶν Φαρισαίων εἶπαν (αὐτοῖς· *k*) τί ποιεῖτε ὃ οὐκ ἔξεστιν (ποιεῖν ἐν *k*) τοῖς σάββασιν;
3 Jesus answered them, “Have you not read what David did when he was hungry, he and those who were with him,
καὶ ἀποκριθεὶς πρὸς αὐτοὺς εἶπεν ὁ Ἰησοῦς· οὐδὲ τοῦτο ἀνέγνωτε ὃ ἐποίησεν Δαυίδ, (ὅτε *N(k)O*) ἐπείνασεν αὐτὸς καὶ οἱ μετ᾽ αὐτοῦ ὄντες;
4 how he entered the house of God and took and ate the bread of the Presence, which is not lawful for anyone to eat except for the priests, and how he also gave it to those who were with him?”
ὡς εἰσῆλθεν εἰς τὸν οἶκον τοῦ θεοῦ, καὶ τοὺς ἄρτους τῆς προθέσεως (λαβὼν *N(k)O*) (καὶ *k*) ἔφαγεν καὶ ἔδωκεν (καὶ *k*) τοῖς μετ᾽ αὐτοῦ οὓς οὐκ ἔξεστιν φαγεῖν εἰ μὴ μόνους τοὺς ἱερεῖς;
5 Then he said to them, “The Son of Man is Lord even of the Sabbath.”
καὶ ἔλεγεν αὐτοῖς (ὅτι· *ko*) κύριός ἐστιν (καὶ *k*) τοῦ σαββάτου ὁ υἱὸς τοῦ ἀνθρώπου.
6 On another Sabbath, Jesus went into the synagogue and was teaching, and a man was there whose right hand was withered.
Ἐγένετο δὲ (καὶ *k*) ἐν ἑτέρῳ σαββάτῳ εἰσελθεῖν αὐτὸν εἰς τὴν συναγωγὴν καὶ διδάσκειν· καὶ ἦν ἄνθρωπος ἐκεῖ, καὶ ἡ χεὶρ αὐτοῦ ἡ δεξιὰ ἦν ξηρά.
7 Now the scribes and the Pharisees were watching Jesus closely to see if he would heal on the Sabbath, so that they could find an accusation against him.
(παρετηροῦντο *N(k)O*) δὲ αὐτὸν οἱ γραμματεῖς καὶ οἱ Φαρισαῖοι εἰ ἐν τῷ σαββάτῳ (θεραπεύει *N(k)O*) ἵνα εὕρωσιν (κατηγορεῖν *N(k)O*) αὐτοῦ.
8 But he knew their thoughts and said to the man with the withered hand, “Rise and stand here.” So he rose and stood there.
αὐτὸς δὲ ᾔδει τοὺς διαλογισμοὺς αὐτῶν. (καὶ *k*) εἶπεν (δὲ *no*) τῷ (ἀνδρὶ *N(k)O*) τῷ ξηρὰν ἔχοντι τὴν χεῖρα· (ἔγειρε *N(k)O*) καὶ στῆθι εἰς τὸ μέσον. (ὁ *k*) (καὶ *N(k)O*) ἀναστὰς ἔστη.
9 Then Jesus said to them, “Let me ask you something: Is it lawful on the Sabbath to do good or to do evil, to save life or to kill?”
εἶπεν (δὲ *N(k)O*) ὁ Ἰησοῦς πρὸς αὐτούς· (ἐπερωτῶ *N(k)O*) ὑμᾶς (εἰ *N(k)O*) ἔξεστιν (τῷ σαββάτῳ *N(k)O*) ἀγαθοποιῆσαι ἢ κακοποιῆσαι; ψυχὴν σῶσαι ἢ (ἀπολέσαι; *NK(O)*)
10 And after looking around at them all, he said to the man, “Stretch out yoʋr hand.” The man did so, and his hand was restored, becoming as sound as the other.
καὶ περιβλεψάμενος πάντας αὐτοὺς εἶπεν (αὐτῷ· *N(K)O*) ἔκτεινον τὴν χεῖρά σου. ὁ δὲ ἐποίησεν (οὕτως· *k*) καὶ ἀπεκατεστάθη ἡ χεὶρ αὐτοῦ (ὑγιὴς *K*) (ὡς ἡ ἄλλη. *KO*)
11 But the scribes and Pharisees were filled with mindless rage and discussed with one another what they might do to Jesus.
αὐτοὶ δὲ ἐπλήσθησαν ἀνοίας καὶ διελάλουν πρὸς ἀλλήλους τί ἂν ποιήσαιεν τῷ Ἰησοῦ.
12 One day soon afterward Jesus went out to the mountain to pray, and spent the whole night in prayer to God.
Ἐγένετο δὲ ἐν ταῖς ἡμέραις ταύταις (ἐξελθεῖν *N(k)O*) (αὐτὸν *no*) εἰς τὸ ὄρος προσεύξασθαι· καὶ ἦν διανυκτερεύων ἐν τῇ προσευχῇ τοῦ θεοῦ.
13 When daybreak came, he called his disciples and chose twelve from among them, whom he also named apostles:
καὶ ὅτε ἐγένετο ἡμέρα, προσεφώνησεν τοὺς μαθητὰς αὐτοῦ, καὶ ἐκλεξάμενος ἀπ᾽ αὐτῶν δώδεκα οὓς καὶ ἀποστόλους ὠνόμασεν·
14 Simon (whom he also named Peter) and Andrew his brother, James and John, Philip and Bartholomew,
Σίμωνα ὃν καὶ ὠνόμασεν Πέτρον καὶ Ἀνδρέαν τὸν ἀδελφὸν αὐτοῦ (καὶ *no*) Ἰάκωβον καὶ Ἰωάννην (καὶ *no*) Φίλιππον καὶ Βαρθολομαῖον
15 Matthew and Thomas, James the son of Alphaeus, and Simon (who was called the Zealot),
(καὶ *no*) Μαθθαῖον καὶ Θωμᾶν (καὶ *no*) Ἰάκωβον (τὸν τοῦ *k*) Ἁλφαίου καὶ Σίμωνα τὸν καλούμενον ζηλωτὴν
16 Judas the son of James, and Judas Iscariot (who became a traitor).
(καὶ *no*) Ἰούδαν Ἰακώβου καὶ Ἰούδαν Ἰσκαριὼθ ὃς (καὶ *ko*) ἐγένετο προδότης.
17 Then Jesus came down with them and stood on a level place. A crowd of his disciples was there along with a great multitude of people from all Judea, Jerusalem, and the coastal region of Tyre and Sidon (who had come to hear him and to be healed of their diseases),
καὶ καταβὰς μετ᾽ αὐτῶν ἔστη ἐπὶ τόπου πεδινοῦ. καὶ ὄχλος (πολὺς *NO*) μαθητῶν αὐτοῦ καὶ πλῆθος πολὺ τοῦ λαοῦ ἀπὸ πάσης τῆς Ἰουδαίας καὶ Ἰερουσαλὴμ καὶ τῆς παραλίου Τύρου καὶ Σιδῶνος οἳ ἦλθον ἀκοῦσαι αὐτοῦ καὶ ἰαθῆναι ἀπὸ τῶν νόσων αὐτῶν.
18 as well as people who were harassed by unclean spirits. And they were healed.
καὶ οἱ (ἐνοχλούμενοι ἀπὸ *N(k)O*) πνευμάτων ἀκαθάρτων (καὶ *k*) ἐθεραπεύοντο.
19 The entire crowd was trying to touch him, because power was coming out from him and healing them all.
καὶ πᾶς ὁ ὄχλος (ἐζήτουν *N(k)O*) ἅπτεσθαι αὐτοῦ, ὅτι δύναμις παρ᾽ αὐτοῦ ἐξήρχετο, καὶ ἰᾶτο πάντας.
20 Then he looked up at his disciples and said, “Blessed are you who are poor, for yours is the kingdom of God.
Καὶ αὐτὸς ἐπάρας τοὺς ὀφθαλμοὺς αὐτοῦ εἰς τοὺς μαθητὰς αὐτοῦ ἔλεγεν· μακάριοι οἱ πτωχοί, ὅτι ὑμετέρα ἐστὶν ἡ βασιλεία τοῦ θεοῦ.
21 Blessed are you who hunger now, for you will be filled. Blessed are you who weep now, for you will laugh.
Μακάριοι οἱ πεινῶντες νῦν, ὅτι χορτασθήσεσθε. Μακάριοι οἱ κλαίοντες νῦν, ὅτι γελάσετε.
22 Blessed are you when others hate you, when they exclude you, reproach you, and spurn your name as evil on account of the Son of Man.
Μακάριοί ἐστε, ὅταν μισήσωσιν ὑμᾶς οἱ ἄνθρωποι καὶ ὅταν ἀφορίσωσιν ὑμᾶς καὶ ὀνειδίσωσιν καὶ ἐκβάλωσιν τὸ ὄνομα ὑμῶν ὡς πονηρὸν ἕνεκα τοῦ υἱοῦ τοῦ ἀνθρώπου.
23 Rejoice in that day and leap for joy, for behold, great is your reward in heaven, for their fathers treated the prophets in the same way.
(χάρητε *N(k)O*) ἐν ἐκείνῃ τῇ ἡμέρᾳ καὶ σκιρτήσατε· ἰδοὺ γὰρ ὁ μισθὸς ὑμῶν πολὺς ἐν τῷ οὐρανῷ. κατὰ (τὰ *N(K)O*) (αὐτὰ *N(k)O*) γὰρ ἐποίουν τοῖς προφήταις οἱ πατέρες αὐτῶν.
24 But woe to you who are rich, for you have received your comfort.
Πλὴν οὐαὶ ὑμῖν τοῖς πλουσίοις, ὅτι ἀπέχετε τὴν παράκλησιν ὑμῶν.
25 Woe to you who are filled, for you will hunger. Woe to you who laugh now, for you will mourn and weep.
Οὐαὶ ὑμῖν οἱ ἐμπεπλησμένοι (νῦν, *no*) ὅτι πεινάσετε. Οὐαὶ (ὑμῖν *k*) οἱ γελῶντες νῦν, ὅτι πενθήσετε καὶ κλαύσετε.
26 Woe to you when others speak well of you, for their fathers treated the false prophets in the same way.
Οὐαὶ (ὑμῖν *k*) ὅταν ὑμᾶς καλῶς εἴπωσιν πάντες οἱ ἄνθρωποι· κατὰ (τὰ *N(K)O*) (αὐτὰ *N(k)O*) γὰρ ἐποίουν τοῖς ψευδοπροφήταις οἱ πατέρες αὐτῶν.
27 “But I say to you who are listening, love your enemies, do good to those who hate you,
ἀλλ᾽ ὑμῖν λέγω τοῖς ἀκούουσιν· ἀγαπᾶτε τοὺς ἐχθροὺς ὑμῶν, καλῶς ποιεῖτε τοῖς μισοῦσιν ὑμᾶς,
28 bless those who curse you, and pray for those who mistreat you.
εὐλογεῖτε τοὺς καταρωμένους (ὑμᾶς, *N(k)O*) (καὶ *k*) προσεύχεσθε (περὶ *N(k)O*) τῶν ἐπηρεαζόντων ὑμᾶς.
29 If anyone strikes yoʋ on one cheek, offer him the other also. If anyone takes away yoʋr cloak, do not withhold yoʋr tunic from him either.
τῷ τύπτοντί σε ἐπὶ τὴν σιαγόνα, πάρεχε καὶ τὴν ἄλλην· καὶ ἀπὸ τοῦ αἴροντός σου τὸ ἱμάτιον καὶ τὸν χιτῶνα μὴ κωλύσῃς.
30 Give to everyone who asks of yoʋ, and if anyone takes away yoʋr belongings, do not demand them back.
Παντὶ (δὲ τῷ *ko*) αἰτοῦντί σε δίδου· καὶ ἀπὸ τοῦ αἴροντος τὰ σὰ μὴ ἀπαίτει.
31 As you wish that others would do to you, do the same also to them.
καὶ καθὼς θέλετε ἵνα ποιῶσιν ὑμῖν οἱ ἄνθρωποι, (καὶ ὑμεῖς *ko*) ποιεῖτε αὐτοῖς ὁμοίως.
32 If you love those who love you, what benefit is that to you? For even sinners love those who love them.
καὶ εἰ ἀγαπᾶτε τοὺς ἀγαπῶντας ὑμᾶς, ποία ὑμῖν χάρις ἐστίν; καὶ γὰρ οἱ ἁμαρτωλοὶ τοὺς ἀγαπῶντας αὐτοὺς ἀγαπῶσιν.
33 And if you do good to those who do good to you, what benefit is that to you? For even sinners do the same.
καὶ (γὰρ *no*) ἐὰν ἀγαθοποιῆτε τοὺς ἀγαθοποιοῦντας ὑμᾶς, ποία ὑμῖν χάρις ἐστίν; καὶ (γὰρ *ko*) οἱ ἁμαρτωλοὶ τὸ αὐτὸ ποιοῦσιν.
34 And if you lend to those from whom you expect to receive something back, what benefit is that to you? For even sinners lend to other sinners in order to receive back the same amount.
καὶ ἐὰν (δανίσητε *N(k)(o)*) παρ᾽ ὧν ἐλπίζετε (λαβεῖν, *N(k)O*) ποία ὑμῖν χάρις ἐστίν; καὶ (γὰρ *ko*) (οἱ *k*) ἁμαρτωλοὶ ἁμαρτωλοῖς δανίζουσιν ἵνα ἀπολάβωσιν τὰ ἴσα.
35 But love your enemies, do good to them, and lend to them without expecting anything in return. Then your reward will be great, and you will be sons of the Most High, for he is kind to the ungrateful and the evil.
πλὴν ἀγαπᾶτε τοὺς ἐχθροὺς ὑμῶν καὶ ἀγαθοποιεῖτε καὶ δανίζετε μηδὲν ἀπελπίζοντες· καὶ ἔσται ὁ μισθὸς ὑμῶν πολύς, καὶ ἔσεσθε υἱοὶ (τοῦ *k*) ὑψίστου, ὅτι αὐτὸς χρηστός ἐστιν ἐπὶ τοὺς ἀχαρίστους καὶ πονηρούς.
36 Therefore be merciful, just as your Father is merciful.
Γίνεσθε (οὖν *K*) οἰκτίρμονες καθὼς καὶ ὁ πατὴρ ὑμῶν οἰκτίρμων ἐστίν.
37 “Do not judge, and you will certainly not be judged. Do not condemn, and you will certainly not be condemned. Forgive, and you will be forgiven.
καὶ μὴ κρίνετε, καὶ οὐ μὴ κριθῆτε. (καὶ *no*) μὴ καταδικάζετε, καὶ οὐ μὴ καταδικασθῆτε. ἀπολύετε, καὶ ἀπολυθήσεσθε.
38 Give, and it will be given to you. A good measure, pressed down, shaken together, and running over, will be put into your lap. For with the same measure you use it will be measured to you in return.”
δίδοτε, καὶ δοθήσεται ὑμῖν. μέτρον καλὸν πεπιεσμένον (καὶ *k*) σεσαλευμένον (καὶ *k*) ὑπερεκχυννόμενον δώσουσιν εἰς τὸν κόλπον ὑμῶν· ᾧ (Τῷ *k*) γὰρ (αὐτῷ *k*) μέτρῳ μετρεῖτε, ἀντιμετρηθήσεται ὑμῖν.
39 He also told them a parable: “Can one blind person guide another? Will they not both fall into a pit?
εἶπεν δὲ (καὶ *no*) παραβολὴν αὐτοῖς· μήτι δύναται τυφλὸς τυφλὸν ὁδηγεῖν; οὐχὶ ἀμφότεροι εἰς βόθυνον (ἐμπεσοῦνται; *N(k)O*)
40 A disciple is not above his teacher, but everyone who is fully trained will be like his teacher.
Οὐκ ἔστιν μαθητὴς ὑπὲρ τὸν διδάσκαλον (αὐτοῦ. *k*) κατηρτισμένος δὲ πᾶς ἔσται ὡς ὁ διδάσκαλος αὐτοῦ.
41 Why do yoʋ see the speck in yoʋr brother's eye, but do not consider the beam in yoʋr own eye?
Τί δὲ βλέπεις τὸ κάρφος τὸ ἐν τῷ ὀφθαλμῷ τοῦ ἀδελφοῦ σου, τὴν δὲ δοκὸν τὴν ἐν τῷ ἰδίῳ ὀφθαλμῷ οὐ κατανοεῖς;
42 Or how can yoʋ say to yoʋr brother, ‘Brother, let me take the speck out of yoʋr eye,’ when yoʋ yoʋrself do not see the beam in yoʋr own eye? Hypocrite! First take the beam out of yoʋr own eye, and then yoʋ will see clearly to take the speck out of yoʋr brother's eye.
(ἢ *ko*) πῶς δύνασαι λέγειν τῷ ἀδελφῷ σου· ἀδελφέ, ἄφες ἐκβάλω τὸ κάρφος τὸ ἐν τῷ ὀφθαλμῷ σου, αὐτὸς τὴν ἐν τῷ ὀφθαλμῷ σου δοκὸν οὐ βλέπων; ὑποκριτά, ἔκβαλε πρῶτον τὴν δοκὸν ἐκ τοῦ ὀφθαλμοῦ σου, καὶ τότε διαβλέψεις τὸ κάρφος τὸ ἐν τῷ ὀφθαλμῷ τοῦ ἀδελφοῦ σου ἐκβαλεῖν.
43 “No good tree produces bad fruit, nor does a bad tree produce good fruit.
οὐ γάρ ἐστιν δένδρον καλὸν ποιοῦν καρπὸν σαπρόν· οὐδὲ (πάλιν *no*) δένδρον σαπρὸν ποιοῦν καρπὸν καλόν·
44 Each tree is known by its own fruit. People do not gather figs from thorns, nor do they pick grapes from a bramble bush.
ἕκαστον γὰρ δένδρον ἐκ τοῦ ἰδίου καρποῦ γινώσκεται. οὐ γὰρ ἐξ ἀκανθῶν συλλέγουσιν σῦκα οὐδὲ ἐκ βάτου σταφυλὴν τρυγῶσιν.
45 The good person brings good things out of the good treasure of his heart, and the evil person brings evil things out of the evil treasure of his heart, for out of the abundance of his heart his mouth speaks.
Ὁ ἀγαθὸς ἄνθρωπος ἐκ τοῦ ἀγαθοῦ θησαυροῦ τῆς καρδίας (αὐτοῦ *ko*) προφέρει τὸ ἀγαθόν, καὶ ὁ πονηρὸς (ἄνθρωπος *k*) ἐκ τοῦ πονηροῦ (θησαυροῦ τῆς καρδίας αὑτοῦ *K*) προφέρει τὸ πονηρόν· ἐκ γὰρ (τοῦ *k*) περισσεύματος (τῆς *k*) καρδίας λαλεῖ τὸ στόμα αὐτοῦ.
46 “Why do you call me, ‘Lord, Lord,’ and not do what I say?
τί δέ με καλεῖτε· κύριε κύριε, καὶ οὐ ποιεῖτε ἃ λέγω;
47 I will show you what someone is like who comes to me, hears my words, and acts on them.
Πᾶς ὁ ἐρχόμενος πρός με καὶ ἀκούων μου τῶν λόγων καὶ ποιῶν αὐτούς, ὑποδείξω ὑμῖν τίνι ἐστὶν ὅμοιος.
48 He is like a man building a house, who dug deep and laid a foundation on the rock. When a flood came, the river burst against that house but could not shake it, for it was founded on the rock.
ὅμοιός ἐστιν ἀνθρώπῳ οἰκοδομοῦντι οἰκίαν ὃς ἔσκαψεν καὶ ἐβάθυνεν καὶ ἔθηκεν θεμέλιον ἐπὶ τὴν πέτραν. πλημμύρης δὲ γενομένης προσέρηξεν ὁ ποταμὸς τῇ οἰκίᾳ ἐκείνῃ, καὶ οὐκ ἴσχυσεν σαλεῦσαι αὐτὴν (διὰ *N(k)O*) (τὸ *no*) (καλῶς *NO*) (οἰκοδομῆσθαι *N(K)O*) (αὐτήν *no*) (ἐπὶ τὴν πέτραν. *k*)
49 But he who hears my words and does not act accordingly is like a man who built a house on the ground without a foundation. As soon as the river burst against that house, it fell and was utterly destroyed.”
Ὁ δὲ ἀκούσας καὶ μὴ ποιήσας ὅμοιός ἐστιν ἀνθρώπῳ οἰκοδομήσαντι οἰκίαν ἐπὶ τὴν γῆν χωρὶς θεμελίου ᾗ προσέρηξεν ὁ ποταμός, καὶ εὐθὺς (συνέπεσεν, *N(k)O*) καὶ ἐγένετο τὸ ῥῆγμα τῆς οἰκίας ἐκείνης μέγα.
