Κατα Λουκαν 5
1 Ἐγένετο δὲ ἐν τῷ, τὸν ὄχλον ἐπικεῖσθαι αὐτῷ καὶ ἀκούειν τὸν λόγον τοῦ ˚Θεοῦ, καὶ αὐτὸς ἦν ἑστὼς παρὰ τὴν λίμνην Γεννησαρέτ,
Now it came to pass, while the multitude pressed upon him to hear the word of God, and having stood still, he was beside the lake of Gennesaret.
2 καὶ εἶδεν δύο πλοῖα ἑστῶτα παρὰ τὴν λίμνην, οἱ δὲ ἁλιεῖς ἀπʼ αὐτῶν ἀποβάντες, ἔπλυνον τὰ δίκτυα.
And he saw two boats standing by the lake, but the fishermen having gone out of them, were washing their nets.
3 Ἐμβὰς δὲ εἰς ἓν τῶν πλοίων, ὃ ἦν Σίμωνος, ἠρώτησεν αὐτὸν ἀπὸ τῆς γῆς ἐπαναγαγεῖν ὀλίγον. Καθίσας δὲ, ἐδίδασκεν ἐκ τοῦ πλοίου τοὺς ὄχλους.
And having entered into one of the boats, which was Simon's, he asked him to put out a little from the land. And having sat down, he taught the crowds from the boat.
4 Ὡς δὲ ἐπαύσατο λαλῶν, εἶπεν πρὸς τὸν Σίμωνα, “Ἐπανάγαγε εἰς τὸ βάθος καὶ χαλάσατε τὰ δίκτυα ὑμῶν εἰς ἄγραν.”
And when he stopped speaking, he said to Simon, Put out into the depth, and let down your nets for a catch.
5 Καὶ ἀποκριθεὶς Σίμων εἶπεν, “Ἐπιστάτα, διʼ ὅλης νυκτὸς κοπιάσαντες, οὐδὲν ἐλάβομεν, ἐπὶ δὲ τῷ ῥήματί σου, χαλάσω τὰ δίκτυα.”
And having answered, Simon said to him, Master, having toiled through the whole night, we took nothing, but at thy saying, I will let down the net.
6 Καὶ τοῦτο ποιήσαντες, συνέκλεισαν πλῆθος ἰχθύων πολύ, διερρήσσετο δὲ τὰ δίκτυα αὐτῶν.
And having done this, they enclosed a great multitude of fishes, and their net was tearing.
7 Καὶ κατένευσαν τοῖς μετόχοις ἐν τῷ ἑτέρῳ πλοίῳ, τοῦ ἐλθόντας συλλαβέσθαι αὐτοῖς· καὶ ἦλθον, καὶ ἔπλησαν ἀμφότερα τὰ πλοῖα, ὥστε βυθίζεσθαι αὐτά.
And they beckoned to their partners in the other boat, after coming, to assist them. And they came and filled both the boats, so as for them to be sunk down.
8 Ἰδὼν δὲ, Σίμων Πέτρος προσέπεσεν τοῖς γόνασιν ˚Ἰησοῦ λέγων, “Ἔξελθε ἀπʼ ἐμοῦ, ὅτι ἀνὴρ ἁμαρτωλός εἰμι, ˚Κύριε.”
But Simon Peter having seen, he fell down at Jesus' knees, saying, Depart from me, because I am a sinful man, Lord.
9 Θάμβος γὰρ περιέσχεν αὐτὸν καὶ πάντας τοὺς σὺν αὐτῷ, ἐπὶ τῇ ἄγρᾳ τῶν ἰχθύων ὧν συνέλαβον,
For astonishment surrounded him, and all those with him, at the catch of the fishes that they caught,
10 ὁμοίως δὲ καὶ Ἰάκωβον καὶ Ἰωάννην, υἱοὺς Ζεβεδαίου, οἳ ἦσαν κοινωνοὶ τῷ Σίμωνι. Καὶ εἶπεν πρὸς τὸν Σίμωνα ὁ ˚Ἰησοῦς, “Μὴ φοβοῦ· ἀπὸ τοῦ νῦν ἀνθρώπους ἔσῃ ζωγρῶν.”
and likewise also James and John, sons of Zebedee, who were partners with Simon. And Jesus said to Simon, Fear not, from henceforth thou will be catching men.
11 Καὶ καταγαγόντες τὰ πλοῖα ἐπὶ τὴν γῆν, ἀφέντες πάντα, ἠκολούθησαν αὐτῷ.
And when they brought their boats to land, after forsaking all, they followed him.
12 Καὶ ἐγένετο ἐν τῷ εἶναι αὐτὸν ἐν μιᾷ τῶν πόλεων, καὶ ἰδοὺ, ἀνὴρ πλήρης λέπρας, ἰδὼν δὲ τὸν ˚Ἰησοῦν, πεσὼν ἐπὶ πρόσωπον, ἐδεήθη αὐτοῦ λέγων, “˚Κύριε, ἐὰν θέλῃς, δύνασαί με καθαρίσαι.”
And it came to pass while he was in one of the cities, behold, a man full of leprosy. And having seen Jesus, having fallen on his face, he besought him, saying, Lord, if thou will, thou can make me clean.
13 Καὶ ἐκτείνας τὴν χεῖρα, ἥψατο αὐτοῦ λέγων, “Θέλω, καθαρίσθητι!” Καὶ εὐθέως ἡ λέπρα ἀπῆλθεν ἀπʼ αὐτοῦ.
And having stretched forth his hand, he touched him, having said, I will, be thou clean. And straightaway the leprosy departed from him.
14 Καὶ αὐτὸς παρήγγειλεν αὐτῷ, “Μηδενὶ εἰπεῖν, ἀλλὰ ἀπελθὼν δεῖξον σεαυτὸν τῷ ἱερεῖ, καὶ προσένεγκε περὶ τοῦ καθαρισμοῦ σου καθὼς προσέταξεν Μωϋσῆς, εἰς μαρτύριον αὐτοῖς.”
And he commanded him to tell no man, but, After going, show thyself to the priest, and bring concerning thy cleansing, just as Moses commanded for a testimony to them.
15 Διήρχετο δὲ μᾶλλον ὁ λόγος περὶ αὐτοῦ, καὶ συνήρχοντο ὄχλοι πολλοὶ ἀκούειν, καὶ θεραπεύεσθαι ἀπὸ τῶν ἀσθενειῶν αὐτῶν.
But the report about him went through more, and many multitudes came together to hear, and to be healed by him from their infirmities.
16 Αὐτὸς δὲ ἦν ὑποχωρῶν ἐν ταῖς ἐρήμοις καὶ προσευχόμενος.
But he himself was withdrawing into the desolate regions, and praying.
17 Καὶ ἐγένετο ἐν μιᾷ τῶν ἡμερῶν, καὶ αὐτὸς ἦν διδάσκων, καὶ ἦσαν καθήμενοι Φαρισαῖοι καὶ νομοδιδάσκαλοι, οἳ ἦσαν ἐληλυθότες ἐκ πάσης κώμης τῆς Γαλιλαίας, καὶ Ἰουδαίας, καὶ Ἰερουσαλήμ. Καὶ δύναμις ˚Κυρίου ἦν εἰς τὸ ἰᾶσθαι αὐτόν.
And it came to pass during one of those days, he was also teaching. And there were seated Pharisees and law teachers, who were men having come out of every town of Galilee and Judea and Jerusalem. And the power of the Lord was to heal them.
18 Καὶ ἰδοὺ, ἄνδρες φέροντες ἐπὶ κλίνης ἄνθρωπον ὃς ἦν παραλελυμένος, καὶ ἐζήτουν αὐτὸν εἰσενεγκεῖν καὶ θεῖναι ἐνώπιον αὐτοῦ.
And behold, men bringing a man on a bed who was paralyzed. And they sought to bring him in, and to lay him before him.
19 Καὶ μὴ εὑρόντες ποίας εἰσενέγκωσιν αὐτὸν διὰ τὸν ὄχλον, ἀναβάντες ἐπὶ τὸ δῶμα, διὰ τῶν κεράμων καθῆκαν αὐτὸν σὺν τῷ κλινιδίῳ εἰς τὸ μέσον ἔμπροσθεν τοῦ ˚Ἰησοῦ.
And not having found how they might bring him in because of the multitude, after going up upon the housetop, they let him down through the tiles with the small bed into the midst in front of Jesus.
20 Καὶ ἰδὼν τὴν πίστιν αὐτῶν εἶπεν, “Ἄνθρωπε, ἀφέωνταί σοι αἱ ἁμαρτίαι σου.”
And having seen their faith, he said to him, Man, thy sins are forgiven thee.
21 Καὶ ἤρξαντο διαλογίζεσθαι οἱ γραμματεῖς καὶ οἱ Φαρισαῖοι λέγοντες, “Τίς ἐστιν οὗτος ὃς λαλεῖ βλασφημίας; Τίς δύναται ἀφιέναι ἁμαρτίας εἰ μὴ μόνος ὁ ˚Θεός;”
And the scholars and the Pharisees began to deliberate, saying, Who is this who speaks blasphemies? Who can forgive sins, except God alone?
22 Ἐπιγνοὺς δὲ ὁ ˚Ἰησοῦς τοὺς διαλογισμοὺς αὐτῶν, ἀποκριθεὶς εἶπεν πρὸς αὐτούς, “Τί διαλογίζεσθε ἐν ταῖς καρδίαις ὑμῶν;
But when Jesus perceived their thoughts, having responded, he said to them, Why do ye deliberate in your hearts?
23 Τί ἐστιν εὐκοπώτερον, εἰπεῖν, ‘Ἀφέωνταί σοι αἱ ἁμαρτίαι σου’, ἢ εἰπεῖν, ‘Ἔγειρε καὶ περιπάτει’;
Which is easier, to say, Thy sins are forgiven thee, or to say, Arise and walk?
24 Ἵνα δὲ εἰδῆτε ὅτι ὁ Υἱὸς τοῦ Ἀνθρώπου ἐξουσίαν ἔχει ἐπὶ τῆς γῆς ἀφιέναι ἁμαρτίας”, εἶπεν τῷ παραλελυμένῳ, “σοὶ λέγω, ἔγειρε, καὶ ἄρας τὸ κλινίδιόν σου, πορεύου εἰς τὸν οἶκόν σου.”
But that ye may know that the Son of man has authority upon earth to forgive sins (he said to the paralyzed man), I say to thee, Arise, and after taking up thy small bed, go to thy house.
25 Καὶ παραχρῆμα ἀναστὰς ἐνώπιον αὐτῶν, ἄρας ἐφʼ ὃ κατέκειτο, ἀπῆλθεν εἰς τὸν οἶκον αὐτοῦ δοξάζων τὸν ˚Θεόν.
And immediately having risen up before them, after taking up that on which he lay, he departed to his house glorifying God.
26 Καὶ ἔκστασις ἔλαβεν ἅπαντας, καὶ ἐδόξαζον τὸν ˚Θεόν, καὶ ἐπλήσθησαν φόβου λέγοντες, ὅτι “Εἴδομεν παράδοξα σήμερον.”
And amazement gripped all, and they glorified God. And they were filled with fear, saying, We have seen strange things today.
27 Καὶ μετὰ ταῦτα ἐξῆλθεν, καὶ ἐθεάσατο τελώνην ὀνόματι Λευὶν, καθήμενον ἐπὶ τὸ τελώνιον, καὶ εἶπεν αὐτῷ, “Ἀκολούθει μοι.”
And after these things he went forth and saw a tax collector, named Levi, sitting at the tax office. And he said to him, Follow me.
28 Καὶ καταλιπὼν πάντα, ἀναστὰς ἠκολούθει αὐτῷ.
And after leaving behind all, having risen up, he followed him.
29 Καὶ ἐποίησεν δοχὴν μεγάλην Λευὶς αὐτῷ ἐν τῇ οἰκίᾳ αὐτοῦ, καὶ ἦν ὄχλος πολὺς τελωνῶν καὶ ἄλλων, οἳ ἦσαν μετʼ αὐτῶν κατακείμενοι.
And Levi made a great feast for him in his house, and there was a large crowd of tax collectors and others who were relaxing with them.
30 Καὶ ἐγόγγυζον οἱ Φαρισαῖοι καὶ οἱ γραμματεῖς αὐτῶν πρὸς τοὺς μαθητὰς αὐτοῦ λέγοντες, “Διὰ τί μετὰ τῶν τελωνῶν καὶ ἁμαρτωλῶν ἐσθίετε καὶ πίνετε;”
And their scholars and Pharisees murmured against his disciples, saying, Why do ye eat and drink with the tax collectors and sinners?
31 Καὶ ἀποκριθεὶς ὁ ˚Ἰησοῦς εἶπεν πρὸς αὐτούς, “Οὐ χρείαν ἔχουσιν οἱ ὑγιαίνοντες ἰατροῦ, ἀλλὰ οἱ κακῶς ἔχοντες.
And having answered, Jesus said to them, Those who are well have no need of a physician, but those faring badly.
32 Οὐκ ἐλήλυθα καλέσαι δικαίους, ἀλλὰ ἁμαρτωλοὺς εἰς μετάνοιαν.”
I have not come to call the righteous but sinners to repentance.
33 Οἱ δὲ εἶπαν πρὸς αὐτόν, “Οἱ μαθηταὶ Ἰωάννου νηστεύουσιν πυκνὰ, καὶ δεήσεις ποιοῦνται, ὁμοίως καὶ οἱ τῶν Φαρισαίων, οἱ δὲ σοὶ ἐσθίουσιν καὶ πίνουσιν.”
And they said to him, Why do the disciples of John fast often, and make supplications, and likewise those of the Pharisees, but thine eat and drink.
34 Ὁ δὲ ˚Ἰησοῦς εἶπεν πρὸς αὐτούς, “Μὴ δύνασθε τοὺς υἱοὺς τοῦ νυμφῶνος ἐν ᾧ ὁ νυμφίος μετʼ αὐτῶν ἐστιν ποιῆσαι νηστεύειν;
And he said to them, Ye cannot make the sons of the wedding hall fast while the bridegroom is with them.
35 Ἐλεύσονται δὲ ἡμέραι καὶ ὅταν ἀπαρθῇ ἀπʼ αὐτῶν ὁ νυμφίος, τότε νηστεύσουσιν ἐν ἐκείναις ταῖς ἡμέραις.”
But the days will also come when the bridegroom will be taken away from them, then they will fast in those days.
36 Ἔλεγεν δὲ καὶ παραβολὴν πρὸς αὐτοὺς: ὅτι “Οὐδεὶς ἐπίβλημα ἀπὸ ἱματίου καινοῦ σχίσας, ἐπιβάλλει ἐπὶ ἱμάτιον παλαιόν· εἰ δὲ μή γε καὶ τὸ καινὸν σχίσει, καὶ τῷ παλαιῷ οὐ συμφωνήσει τὸ ἐπίβλημα τὸ ἀπὸ τοῦ καινοῦ.
And he also spoke a parable to them. No man puts a patch of a new garment on an old garment, otherwise both the new tears, and that from the new will not blend with the old.
37 Καὶ οὐδεὶς βάλλει οἶνον νέον εἰς ἀσκοὺς παλαιούς· εἰ δὲ μή γε ῥήξει ὁ οἶνος ὁ νέος τοὺς ἀσκούς, καὶ αὐτὸς ἐκχυθήσεται, καὶ οἱ ἀσκοὶ ἀπολοῦνται.
And no man puts new wine into old wineskins, otherwise the new wine will burst the wineskins, and will itself be spilled, and the wineskins will be ruined.
38 Ἀλλὰ οἶνον νέον εἰς ἀσκοὺς καινοὺς βλητέον.
But new wine must be put into fresh wineskins, and both are preserved together.
39 Οὐδεὶς πιὼν παλαιὸν θέλει νέον· λέγει γάρ, ‘Ὁ παλαιὸς χρηστός ἐστιν.’”
And no man having drunk old straightaway desires new, for he says, The old is better.
