< Matthew 17 >
1 Six days later Jesus took with him Peter, James, and John his brother, and brought them up a high mountain by themselves.
και μεθ ημερας εξ παραλαμβανει ο ιησους τον πετρον και ιακωβον και ιωαννην τον αδελφον αυτου και αναφερει αυτους εις ορος υψηλον κατ ιδιαν
2 He was transfigured before them. His face shone like the sun, and his garments became as brilliant as the light.
και μετεμορφωθη εμπροσθεν αυτων και ελαμψεν το προσωπον αυτου ως ο ηλιος τα δε ιματια αυτου εγενετο λευκα ως το φως
3 Behold, there appeared to them Moses and Elijah talking with him.
και ιδου ωφθη αυτοις μωυσης και ηλιας συλλαλουντες μετ αυτου
4 Peter answered and said to Jesus, “Lord, it is good for us to be here. If you desire, I will make here three shelters—one for you, and one for Moses, and one for Elijah.”
αποκριθεις δε ο πετρος ειπεν τω ιησου κυριε καλον εστιν ημας ωδε ειναι ει θελεις ποιησω ωδε τρεις σκηνας σοι μιαν και μωυσει μιαν και ηλια μιαν
5 While he was still speaking, behold, a bright cloud overshadowed them, and behold, there was a voice out of the cloud, saying, “This is my beloved Son, in whom I am well pleased. Listen to him.”
ετι αυτου λαλουντος ιδου νεφελη φωτεινη επεσκιασεν αυτους και ιδου φωνη εκ της νεφελης λεγουσα ουτος εστιν ο υιος μου ο αγαπητος εν ω ευδοκησα ακουετε αυτου
6 When the disciples heard it, they fell on their face and were very afraid.
και ακουσαντες οι μαθηται επεσαν επι προσωπον αυτων και εφοβηθησαν σφοδρα
7 Then Jesus came and touched them and said, “Get up and do not be afraid.”
και προσηλθεν ο ιησους και αψαμενος αυτων ειπεν εγερθητε και μη φοβεισθε
8 Then they looked up but saw no one except Jesus only.
επαραντες δε τους οφθαλμους αυτων ουδενα ειδον ει μη αυτον ιησουν μονον
9 As they were coming down the mountain, Jesus commanded them, saying, “Report this vision to no one until the Son of Man has risen from the dead.”
και καταβαινοντων αυτων εκ του ορους ενετειλατο αυτοις ο ιησους λεγων μηδενι ειπητε το οραμα εως ου ο υιος του ανθρωπου εκ νεκρων εγερθη
10 His disciples asked him, saying, “Why then do the scribes say that Elijah must come first?”
και επηρωτησαν αυτον οι μαθηται λεγοντες τι ουν οι γραμματεις λεγουσιν οτι ηλιαν δει ελθειν πρωτον
11 Jesus answered and said, “Elijah will indeed come and restore all things.
ο δε αποκριθεις ειπεν ηλιας μεν ερχεται και αποκαταστησει παντα
12 But I tell you, Elijah has already come, but they did not recognize him. Instead, they did whatever they wanted to him. In the same way, the Son of Man will also suffer at their hands.”
λεγω δε υμιν οτι ηλιας ηδη ηλθεν και ουκ επεγνωσαν αυτον αλλα εποιησαν εν αυτω οσα ηθελησαν ουτως και ο υιος του ανθρωπου μελλει πασχειν υπ αυτων
13 Then the disciples understood that he was speaking to them about John the Baptist.
τοτε συνηκαν οι μαθηται οτι περι ιωαννου του βαπτιστου ειπεν αυτοις
14 When they had come to the crowd, a man came to him, knelt before him, and said,
και ελθοντων προς τον οχλον προσηλθεν αυτω ανθρωπος γονυπετων αυτον
15 “Lord, have mercy on my son, for he is epileptic and suffers severely. For he often falls into the fire or the water.
και λεγων κυριε ελεησον μου τον υιον οτι σεληνιαζεται και κακως {VAR1: εχει } {VAR2: πασχει } πολλακις γαρ πιπτει εις το πυρ και πολλακις εις το υδωρ
16 I brought him to your disciples, but they could not cure him.”
και προσηνεγκα αυτον τοις μαθηταις σου και ουκ ηδυνηθησαν αυτον θεραπευσαι
17 Jesus answered and said, “Unbelieving and corrupt generation, how long will I have to stay with you? How long must I bear with you? Bring him here to me.”
αποκριθεις δε ο ιησους ειπεν ω γενεα απιστος και διεστραμμενη εως ποτε μεθ υμων εσομαι εως ποτε ανεξομαι υμων φερετε μοι αυτον ωδε
18 Jesus rebuked the demon, and it came out of him, and the boy was healed from that hour.
και επετιμησεν αυτω ο ιησους και εξηλθεν απ αυτου το δαιμονιον και εθεραπευθη ο παις απο της ωρας εκεινης
19 Then the disciples came to Jesus privately and said, “Why could we not cast it out?”
τοτε προσελθοντες οι μαθηται τω ιησου κατ ιδιαν ειπον δια τι ημεις ουκ ηδυνηθημεν εκβαλειν αυτο
20 Jesus said to them, “Because of your small faith. For I truly say to you, if you have faith even as small as a grain of mustard seed, you can say to this mountain, 'Move from here to there,' and it will move, and nothing will be impossible for you.
ο δε λεγει αυτοις δια την ολιγοπιστιαν υμων αμην γαρ λεγω υμιν εαν εχητε πιστιν ως κοκκον σιναπεως ερειτε τω ορει τουτω μεταβα ενθεν εκει και μεταβησεται και ουδεν αδυνατησει υμιν
22 While they stayed in Galilee, Jesus said to his disciples, “The Son of Man will be delivered into the hands of people,
συστρεφομενων δε αυτων εν τη γαλιλαια ειπεν αυτοις ο ιησους μελλει ο υιος του ανθρωπου παραδιδοσθαι εις χειρας ανθρωπων
23 and they will kill him, and the third day he will be raised up.” The disciples became very upset.
και αποκτενουσιν αυτον και τη τριτη ημερα εγερθησεται και ελυπηθησαν σφοδρα
24 When they had come to Capernaum, the men who collected the half-shekel tax came to Peter and said, “Does not your teacher pay the half-shekel tax?”
ελθοντων δε αυτων εις καφαρναουμ προσηλθον οι τα διδραχμα λαμβανοντες τω πετρω και ειπαν ο διδασκαλος υμων ου τελει {VAR1: τα } {VAR2: [τα] } διδραχμα
25 He said, “Yes.” When Peter came into the house, Jesus spoke to him first and said, “What do you think, Simon? From whom do the kings of the earth collect tolls or taxes? From their sons or from others?”
λεγει ναι και ελθοντα εις την οικιαν προεφθασεν αυτον ο ιησους λεγων τι σοι δοκει σιμων οι βασιλεις της γης απο τινων λαμβανουσιν τελη η κηνσον απο των υιων αυτων η απο των αλλοτριων
26 When he said, “From others,” Jesus said to him, “Then the sons are free.”
ειποντος δε απο των αλλοτριων εφη αυτω ο ιησους αρα γε ελευθεροι εισιν οι υιοι
27 But so that we do not cause the tax collectors to sin, go to the sea, throw in a hook, and draw in the fish that comes up first. When you have opened its mouth, you will find a shekel. Take it and give it to the tax collectors for me and you.”
ινα δε μη σκανδαλισωμεν αυτους πορευθεις εις θαλασσαν βαλε αγκιστρον και τον αναβαντα πρωτον ιχθυν αρον και ανοιξας το στομα αυτου ευρησεις στατηρα εκεινον λαβων δος αυτοις αντι εμου και σου
