Κατα Ματθαιον 15
1 τοτε προσερχονται τω ιησου οι απο ιεροσολυμων γραμματεις και φαρισαιοι λεγοντες
Then the scribes and Pharisees from Jerusalem come up to Jesus, saying,
2 διατι οι μαθηται σου παραβαινουσιν την παραδοσιν των πρεσβυτερων ου γαρ νιπτονται τας χειρας αυτων οταν αρτον εσθιωσιν
Why do thy disciples transgress what has been delivered by the ancients? for they do not wash their hands when they eat bread.
3 ο δε αποκριθεις ειπεν αυτοις διατι και υμεις παραβαινετε την εντολην του θεου δια την παραδοσιν υμων
But he answering said to them, Why do ye also transgress the commandment of God on account of your traditional teaching?
4 ο γαρ θεος ενετειλατο λεγων τιμα τον πατερα σου και την μητερα και ο κακολογων πατερα η μητερα θανατω τελευτατω
For God commanded saying, Honour father and mother; and, He that speaks ill of father or mother, let him die the death.
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 mother, It is a gift, whatsoever [it be] by which [received] from me thou wouldest be profited:
6 και ηκυρωσατε την εντολην του θεου δια την παραδοσιν υμων
and he shall in no wise honour his father or his mother; and ye have made void the commandment of God on account of your traditional teaching.
7 υποκριται καλως προεφητευσεν περι υμων ησαιας λεγων
Hypocrites! well has Esaias prophesied about you, 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 honour me with the lips, but their heart is far away from me;
9 ματην δε σεβονται με διδασκοντες διδασκαλιας ενταλματα ανθρωπων
but in vain do they worship me, teaching [as] teachings commandments of men.
10 και προσκαλεσαμενος τον οχλον ειπεν αυτοις ακουετε και συνιετε
And having called to [him] the crowd, 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 what enters into the mouth defiles the man; but what goes forth out of the mouth, this defiles the man.
12 τοτε προσελθοντες οι μαθηται αυτου ειπον αυτω οιδας οτι οι φαρισαιοι ακουσαντες τον λογον εσκανδαλισθησαν
Then his disciples, coming up, said to him, Dost thou know that the Pharisees, having heard this word, have been offended?
13 ο δε αποκριθεις ειπεν πασα φυτεια ην ουκ εφυτευσεν ο πατηρ μου ο ουρανιος εκριζωθησεται
But he answering said, Every plant which my heavenly Father has not planted shall be rooted up.
14 αφετε αυτους οδηγοι εισιν τυφλοι τυφλων τυφλος δε τυφλον εαν οδηγη αμφοτεροι εις βοθυνον πεσουνται
Leave them alone; they are blind leaders of blind: but if blind lead blind, both will fall into a ditch.
15 αποκριθεις δε ο πετρος ειπεν αυτω φρασον ημιν την παραβολην ταυτην
And Peter answering said to him, Expound to us this parable.
16 ο δε ιησους ειπεν ακμην και υμεις ασυνετοι εστε
But he said, Are ye also still without intelligence?
17 ουπω νοειτε οτι παν το εισπορευομενον εις το στομα εις την κοιλιαν χωρει και εις αφεδρωνα εκβαλλεται
Do ye not yet apprehend, that everything that enters into the mouth finds its way into the belly, and is cast forth into the draught?
18 τα δε εκπορευομενα εκ του στοματος εκ της καρδιας εξερχεται κακεινα κοινοι τον ανθρωπον
but the things which go forth out of the mouth come out of the heart, and those defile man.
19 εκ γαρ της καρδιας εξερχονται διαλογισμοι πονηροι φονοι μοιχειαι πορνειαι κλοπαι ψευδομαρτυριαι βλασφημιαι
For out of the heart come forth evil thoughts, murders, adulteries, fornications, thefts, false witnessings, blasphemies;
20 ταυτα εστιν τα κοινουντα τον ανθρωπον το δε ανιπτοις χερσιν φαγειν ου κοινοι τον ανθρωπον
these are the things which defile man; but the eating with unwashen hands does not defile man.
21 και εξελθων εκειθεν ο ιησους ανεχωρησεν εις τα μερη τυρου και σιδωνος
And Jesus, going forth from thence, went away into the parts of Tyre and Sidon;
22 και ιδου γυνη χαναναια απο των οριων εκεινων εξελθουσα εκραυγασεν αυτω λεγουσα ελεησον με κυριε υιε δαβιδ η θυγατηρ μου κακως δαιμονιζεται
and lo, a Canaanitish woman, coming out from those borders, cried [to him] saying, Have pity on me, Lord, Son of David; my daughter is miserably possessed by a demon.
23 ο δε ουκ απεκριθη αυτη λογον και προσελθοντες οι μαθηται αυτου ηρωτων αυτον λεγοντες απολυσον αυτην οτι κραζει οπισθεν ημων
But he did not answer her a word. And his disciples came to [him] and asked him, saying, Dismiss her, for she cries after us.
24 ο δε αποκριθεις ειπεν ουκ απεσταλην ει μη εις τα προβατα τα απολωλοτα οικου ισραηλ
But he answering said, I have not been sent save to the lost sheep of Israel's house.
25 η δε ελθουσα προσεκυνει αυτω λεγουσα κυριε βοηθει μοι
But she came and did him homage, 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 well to take the bread of the children and cast it to the dogs.
27 η δε ειπεν ναι κυριε και γαρ τα κυναρια εσθιει απο των ψιχιων των πιπτοντων απο της τραπεζης των κυριων αυτων
But she said, Yea, Lord; for even the dogs eat of the crumbs which fall 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 Jesus answering said to her, O woman, thy faith [is] great. Be it to 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 Jesus, going away from thence, came towards the sea of Galilee, and he went up into the mountain and sat down 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 great crowds came to him, having with them lame, blind, dumb, crippled, and many others, and they cast them at his feet, and he healed them:
31 ωστε τους οχλους θαυμασαι βλεποντας κωφους λαλουντας κυλλους υγιεις χωλους περιπατουντας και τυφλους βλεποντας και εδοξασαν τον θεον ισραηλ
so that the crowds wondered, seeing dumb speaking, crippled sound, lame walking, and blind seeing; and they glorified the God of Israel.
32 ο δε ιησους προσκαλεσαμενος τους μαθητας αυτου ειπεν σπλαγχνιζομαι επι τον οχλον οτι ηδη ημερας τρεις προσμενουσιν μοι και ουκ εχουσιν τι φαγωσιν και απολυσαι αυτους νηστεις ου θελω μηποτε εκλυθωσιν εν τη οδω
But Jesus, having called his disciples to [him], said, I have compassion on the crowd, because they have stayed with me already three days and they have not anything they can eat, and I would not send them away fasting lest they should faint on the way.
33 και λεγουσιν αυτω οι μαθηται αυτου ποθεν ημιν εν ερημια αρτοι τοσουτοι ωστε χορτασαι οχλον τοσουτον
And his disciples say to him, Whence should we have so many loaves in [the] wilderness as to satisfy so great a crowd?
34 και λεγει αυτοις ο ιησους ποσους αρτους εχετε οι δε ειπον επτα και ολιγα ιχθυδια
And Jesus says to them, How many loaves have ye? But they said, Seven, and a few small fishes.
35 και εκελευσεν τοις οχλοις αναπεσειν επι την γην
And he commanded the crowds to lie down on the ground;
36 και λαβων τους επτα αρτους και τους ιχθυας ευχαριστησας εκλασεν και εδωκεν τοις μαθηταις αυτου οι δε μαθηται τω οχλω
and having taken the seven loaves and the fishes, having given thanks, he broke [them] and gave [them] to his disciples, and the disciples to the crowd.
37 και εφαγον παντες και εχορτασθησαν και ηραν το περισσευον των κλασματων επτα σπυριδας πληρεις
And all ate and were filled; and they took up what was over and above of the fragments seven baskets full;
38 οι δε εσθιοντες ησαν τετρακισχιλιοι ανδρες χωρις γυναικων και παιδιων
but they that ate were four thousand men, besides women and children.
39 και απολυσας τους οχλους ενεβη εις το πλοιον και ηλθεν εις τα ορια μαγδαλα
And, having dismissed the crowds, he went on board ship and came to the borders of Magadan.
