Κατα Ματθαιον 15
1 τοτε προσερχονται τω ιησου οι απο ιεροσολυμων γραμματεισ και φαρισαιοι λεγοντεσ
Then, there come unto Jesus from Jerusalem Pharisees and Scribes, saying—
2 δια τι οι μαθηται σου παραβαινουσιν την παραδοσιν των πρεσβυτερων ου γαρ νιπτονται τασ χειρασ αυτων οταν αρτον εσθιωσιν
Wherefore do thy disciples transgress the tradition of the elders? for they wash not their hands, when they eat bread!
3 ο δε αποκριθεισ ειπεν αυτοισ δια τι και υμεισ παραβαινετε την εντολην του θεου δια την παραδοσιν υμων
But, he, answering, said unto them—Wherefore do, ye also, transgress the commandment of God for the sake of your tradition?
4 ο γαρ θεοσ ενετειλατο λεγων τιμα τον πατερα και την μητερα και ο κακολογων πατερα η μητερα θανατω τελευτατω
For, God, said—Honour thy father and thy mother, and—He that revileth father or mother, let him, surely die!
5 υμεισ δε λεγετε οσ αν ειπη τω πατρι η τη μητρι δωρον ο εαν εξ εμου ωφεληθησ και ου μη τιμηση τον πατερα αυτου η την μητερα αυτου
But, ye, say—Whosoever shall say to his father or his mother—A gift! Whatsoever, out of me, thou mightest be profited,
6 και ηκυρωσατε την εντολην του θεου δια την παραδοσιν υμων
in nowise, shall honour his father or his mother—and so ye have cancelled, the word of God, for the sake of your, tradition.
7 υποκριται καλωσ προεφητευσεν περι υμων ησαιασ λεγων
Hypocrites! well prophesied concerning you, Isaiah, saying—
8 εγγιζει μοι ο λαοσ ουτοσ τω στοματι αυτων και τοισ χειλεσιν με τιμα η δε καρδια αυτων πορρω απεχει απ εμου
This people, with the lips, do, honour, me, while, their heart, far off, holdeth from me;
9 ματην δε σεβονται με διδασκοντεσ διδασκαλιασ ενταλματα ανθρωπων
But, in vain, do they pay devotions unto me, teaching, for teachings, the commandments of men.
10 και προσκαλεσαμενοσ τον οχλον ειπεν αυτοισ ακουετε και συνιετε
And, calling near the multitude, he said to them—Hear and understand!
11 ου το εισερχομενον εισ το στομα κοινοι τον ανθρωπον αλλα το εκπορευομενον εκ του στοματοσ τουτο κοινοι τον ανθρωπον
Not that which entereth into the mouth, defileth the man, but, that which proceedeth out of the mouth, the same, defileth the man,
12 τοτε προσελθοντεσ οι μαθηται αυτου ειπον αυτω οιδασ οτι οι φαρισαιοι ακουσαντεσ τον λογον εσκανδαλισθησαν
Then, coming near, his disciples say unto him—Knowest thou, that the Pharisees, hearing the word, were caused to stumble?
13 ο δε αποκριθεισ ειπεν πασα φυτεια ην ουκ εφυτευσεν ο πατηρ μου ο ουρανιοσ εκριζωθησεται
And, he, answering, said—Every plant which my heavenly Father hath not planted, will be uprooted:
14 αφετε αυτουσ οδηγοι εισιν τυφλοι τυφλων τυφλοσ δε τυφλον εαν οδηγη αμφοτεροι εισ βοθυνον πεσουνται
Let them alone! they are, blind leaders; and, if the, blind, lead the, blind, both, into a ditch, will fall.
15 αποκριθεισ δε ο πετροσ ειπεν αυτω φρασον ημιν την παραβολην ταυτην
And Peter, answering, said unto him, Declare to us the parable.
16 ο δε ιησουσ ειπεν ακμην και υμεισ ασυνετοι εστε
And, he, said, To this moment, are, ye also, without discernment?
17 ουπω νοειτε οτι παν το εισπορευομενον εισ το στομα εισ την κοιλιαν χωρει και εισ αφεδρωνα εκβαλλεται
Perceive ye not that, every thing which entereth into the mouth, into the stomach, findeth way, and, into the draught, is passed;
18 τα δε εκπορευομενα εκ του στοματοσ εκ τησ καρδιασ εξερχεται κακεινα κοινοι τον ανθρωπον
while, the things which proceed out of the mouth, out of the heart, come forth, and, they, defile the man.
19 εκ γαρ τησ καρδιασ εξερχονται διαλογισμοι πονηροι φονοι μοιχειαι πορνειαι κλοπαι ψευδομαρτυριαι βλασφημιαι
For, out of the heart, come forth wicked designs, —murders, adulteries, fornications, thefts, false testimonies, profane speakings:
20 ταυτα εστιν τα κοινουντα τον ανθρωπον το δε ανιπτοισ χερσιν φαγειν ου κοινοι τον ανθρωπον
these, are the things which defile the man, but, the eating with unwashed hands, doth not defile the man.
21 και εξελθων εκειθεν ο ιησουσ ανεχωρησεν εισ τα μερη τυρου και σιδωνοσ
And, going forth from thence, Jesus retired into the parts of Tyre and Zidon.
22 και ιδου γυνη χαναναια απο των οριων εκεινων εξελθουσα εκραυγασεν αυτω λεγουσα ελεησον με κυριε υιε δαυιδ η θυγατηρ μου κακωσ δαιμονιζεται
And lo! a Canaanite woman, from those bounds, coming forth, began crying out, saying, Have mercy on me, Lord, Son of David! My daughter, is miserably demonized.
23 ο δε ουκ απεκριθη αυτη λογον και προσελθοντεσ οι μαθηται αυτου ηρωτων αυτον λεγοντεσ απολυσον αυτην οτι κραζει οπισθεν ημων
But, he, answered her no a word. And his disciples, coming forward began requesting him, saying—Dismiss her, because she is crying out after us.
24 ο δε αποκριθεισ ειπεν ουκ απεσταλην ει μη εισ τα προβατα τα απολωλοτα οικου ισραηλ
But, he, answering, said, I was not sent forth, save unto the lost sheep of the house of Israel.
25 η δε ελθουσα προσεκυνησεν αυτω λεγουσα κυριε βοηθει μοι
And, she, coming, began bowing down to him, saying, Lord! help me.
26 ο δε αποκριθεισ ειπεν ουκ εστιν καλον λαβειν τον αρτον των τεκνων και βαλειν τοισ κυναριοισ
But, he, answering, said, It is, not seemly, to take the loaf of, the children, and cast, to the little dogs.
27 η δε ειπεν ναι κυριε και γαρ τα κυναρια εσθιει απο των ψιχιων των πιπτοντων απο τησ τραπεζησ των κυριων αυτων
And, she, said, True, Lord! [for], even the little dogs, eat of the crumbs which are falling from the table of, their masters.
28 τοτε αποκριθεισ ο ιησουσ ειπεν αυτη ω γυναι μεγαλη σου η πιστισ γενηθητω σοι ωσ θελεισ και ιαθη η θυγατηρ αυτησ απο τησ ωρασ εκεινησ
Then, answering, Jesus said to her—O woman! great, is, thy faith! Be it, done, for thee, as thou desirest. And her daughter was healed, from that hour.
29 και μεταβασ εκειθεν ο ιησουσ ηλθεν παρα την θαλασσαν τησ γαλιλαιασ και αναβασ εισ το οροσ εκαθητο εκει
And, passing on from thence, Jesus came near the sea of Galilee, and, going up into the mountain, was sitting there.
30 και προσηλθον αυτω οχλοι πολλοι εχοντεσ μεθ εαυτων χωλουσ τυφλουσ κωφουσ κυλλουσ και ετερουσ πολλουσ και ερριψαν αυτουσ παρα τουσ ποδασ του ιησου και εθεραπευσεν αυτουσ
And there came unto him large multitudes, having with themselves the lame, the maimed, the blind, the dumb, and many others, —and they cast them near his feet, and he cured them;
31 ωστε τουσ οχλουσ θαυμασαι βλεποντασ κωφουσ λαλουντασ κυλλουσ υγιεισ χωλουσ περιπατουντασ και τυφλουσ βλεποντασ και εδοξασαν τον θεον ισραηλ
so that the multitude marvelled, seeing the dumb speaking, the lame walking, and the blind seeing, —and they glorified the God of Israel.
32 ο δε ιησουσ προσκαλεσαμενοσ τουσ μαθητασ αυτου ειπεν σπλαγχνιζομαι επι τον οχλον οτι ηδη ημεραι τρεισ προσμενουσιν μοι και ουκ εχουσιν τι φαγωσιν και απολυσαι αυτουσ νηστεισ ου θελω μηποτε εκλυθωσιν εν τη οδω
But, Jesus, calling near his disciples, said—My compassions are moved towards the multitude, because [even now], three days, abide they with me, and they have nothing to eat, —and, to dismiss them fasting, I am not willing, lest by any means they faint in the way.
33 και λεγουσιν αυτω οι μαθηται αυτου ποθεν ημιν εν ερημια αρτοι τοσουτοι ωστε χορτασαι οχλον τοσουτον
And his disciples say unto him—Whence, to us, in a wilderness, loaves in such numbers as to fill a multitude, so great?
34 και λεγει αυτοισ ο ιησουσ ποσουσ αρτουσ εχετε οι δε ειπον επτα και ολιγα ιχθυδια
And Jesus saith unto them—How many, loaves have ye? And, they, said, —Seven, and a few small fishes.
35 και εκελευσεν τοισ οχλοισ αναπεσειν επι την γην
And, sending word to the multitude to recline upon the ground,
36 και λαβων τουσ επτα αρτουσ και τουσ ιχθυασ ευχαριστησασ εκλασεν και εδωκεν τοισ μαθηταισ αυτου οι δε μαθηται τω οχλω
he took the seven loaves, and the fishes, and, giving thanks, brake, —and began giving to his disciples, and, the disciples, to the multitudes.
37 και εφαγον παντεσ και εχορτασθησαν και ηραν το περισσευον των κλασματων επτα σπυριδασ πληρεισ
And they all did eat and were filled, —and, the remainder of the broken pieces, took they up, seven hampers, full.
38 οι δε εσθιοντεσ ησαν τετρακισχιλιοι ανδρεσ χωρισ γυναικων και παιδιων
And, they who did eat, were four thousand men, besides women and children.
39 και απολυσασ τουσ οχλουσ ενεβη εισ το πλοιον και ηλθεν εισ τα ορια μαγδαλα
And, dismissing the multitudes, he went up into the boat, —and came into the bounds of Magadan.
