Κατα Μαρκον 6
1 και εξηλθεν εκειθεν και ερχεται εις την πατριδα αυτου και ακολουθουσιν αυτω οι μαθηται αυτου
Leaving that place He came into His own country, accompanied by His disciples.
2 και γενομενου σαββατου ηρξατο διδασκειν εν τη συναγωγη και {VAR1: οι } πολλοι ακουοντες εξεπλησσοντο λεγοντες ποθεν τουτω ταυτα και τις η σοφια η δοθεισα τουτω και αι δυναμεις τοιαυται δια των χειρων αυτου γινομεναι
On the Sabbath He proceeded to teach in the synagogue; and many, as they heard Him, were astonished. "Where did he acquire all this?" they asked. "What is this wisdom that has been given to him? And what are these marvellous miracles which his hands perform?
3 ουχ ουτος εστιν ο τεκτων ο υιος της μαριας και αδελφος ιακωβου και ιωσητος και ιουδα και σιμωνος και ουκ εισιν αι αδελφαι αυτου ωδε προς ημας και εσκανδαλιζοντο εν αυτω
Is not this the carpenter, Mary's son, the brother of James and Joses, Jude and Simon? And do not his sisters live here among us?" So they turned angrily away.
4 και ελεγεν αυτοις ο ιησους οτι ουκ εστιν προφητης ατιμος ει μη εν τη πατριδι αυτου και εν τοις συγγενευσιν αυτου και εν τη οικια αυτου
But Jesus said to them, "There is no Prophet without honour except in his own country, and among his own relatives, and in his own home."
5 και ουκ εδυνατο εκει ποιησαι ουδεμιαν δυναμιν ει μη ολιγοις αρρωστοις επιθεις τας χειρας εθεραπευσεν
And He could not do any miracle there, except that He laid His hands on a few who were out of health and cured them; and
6 και {VAR1: εθαυμασεν } {VAR2: εθαυμαζεν } δια την απιστιαν αυτων και περιηγεν τας κωμας κυκλω διδασκων
He wondered at their unbelief. So He went round the adjacent villages, teaching.
7 και προσκαλειται τους δωδεκα και ηρξατο αυτους αποστελλειν δυο δυο και εδιδου αυτοις εξουσιαν των πνευματων των ακαθαρτων
Then summoning the Twelve to Him, He proceeded to send them out by twos, and gave them authority over the foul spirits.
8 και παρηγγειλεν αυτοις ινα μηδεν αιρωσιν εις οδον ει μη ραβδον μονον μη αρτον μη πηραν μη εις την ζωνην χαλκον
He charged them to take nothing for the journey except a stick; no bread, no bag, and not a penny in their pockets,
9 αλλα υποδεδεμενους σανδαλια και μη {VAR1: ενδυσασθαι } {VAR2: ενδυσησθε } δυο χιτωνας
but to go wearing sandals. "And do not," He said, "put on an extra under garment.
10 και ελεγεν αυτοις οπου εαν εισελθητε εις οικιαν εκει μενετε εως αν εξελθητε εκειθεν
Wherever you enter a house, make it your home till you leave that place.
11 και ος αν τοπος μη δεξηται υμας μηδε ακουσωσιν υμων εκπορευομενοι εκειθεν εκτιναξατε τον χουν τον υποκατω των ποδων υμων εις μαρτυριον αυτοις
But wherever they will not receive you or listen to you, when you leave shake off the very dust from under your feet to bear witness concerning them."
12 και εξελθοντες εκηρυξαν ινα μετανοωσιν
So they set out, and preached in order that men might repent.
13 και δαιμονια πολλα εξεβαλλον και ηλειφον ελαιω πολλους αρρωστους και εθεραπευον
Many demons they expelled, and many invalids they anointed with oil and cured.
14 και ηκουσεν ο βασιλευς ηρωδης φανερον γαρ εγενετο το ονομα αυτου και ελεγον οτι ιωαννης ο βαπτιζων εγηγερται εκ νεκρων και δια τουτο ενεργουσιν αι δυναμεις εν αυτω
King Herod heard of all this (for the name of Jesus had become widely known), and he kept saying, "John the Baptizer has come back to life, and that is why these miraculous Powers are working in him."
15 αλλοι δε ελεγον οτι ηλιας εστιν αλλοι δε ελεγον οτι προφητης ως εις των προφητων
Others asserted that He was Elijah. Others again said, "He is a Prophet, like one of the great Prophets."
16 ακουσας δε ο ηρωδης ελεγεν ον εγω απεκεφαλισα ιωαννην ουτος ηγερθη
But when Herod heard of Him, he said, "The John, whom I beheaded, has come back to life."
17 αυτος γαρ ο ηρωδης αποστειλας εκρατησεν τον ιωαννην και εδησεν αυτον εν φυλακη δια ηρωδιαδα την γυναικα φιλιππου του αδελφου αυτου οτι αυτην εγαμησεν
For Herod himself had sent and had had John arrested and had kept him in prison in chains, for the sake of Herodias, his brother Philip's wife; because he had married her.
18 ελεγεν γαρ ο ιωαννης τω ηρωδη οτι ουκ εξεστιν σοι εχειν την γυναικα του αδελφου σου
For John had repeatedly told Herod, "You have no right to be living with your brother's wife."
19 η δε ηρωδιας ενειχεν αυτω και ηθελεν αυτον αποκτειναι και ουκ ηδυνατο
Therefore Herodias hated him and wished to take his life, but could not;
20 ο γαρ ηρωδης εφοβειτο τον ιωαννην ειδως αυτον ανδρα δικαιον και αγιον και συνετηρει αυτον και ακουσας αυτου πολλα ηπορει και ηδεως αυτου ηκουεν
for Herod stood in awe of John, knowing him to be an upright and holy man, and he protected him. After listening to him he was in great perplexity, and yet he found a pleasure in listening.
21 και γενομενης ημερας ευκαιρου οτε ηρωδης τοις γενεσιοις αυτου δειπνον εποιησεν τοις μεγιστασιν αυτου και τοις χιλιαρχοις και τοις πρωτοις της γαλιλαιας
At length Herodias found her opportunity. Herod on his birthday gave a banquet to the nobles of his court and to the tribunes and the principal people in Galilee,
22 και εισελθουσης της θυγατρος αυτου ηρωδιαδος και ορχησαμενης ηρεσεν τω ηρωδη και τοις συνανακειμενοις {VAR1: ο δε βασιλευς ειπεν } {VAR2: ειπεν ο βασιλευς } τω κορασιω αιτησον με ο εαν θελης και δωσω σοι
at which Herodias's own daughter came in and danced, and so charmed Herod and his guests that he said to her, "Ask me for anything you please, and I will give it to you."
23 και ωμοσεν αυτη {VAR2: [πολλα] } ο τι εαν με αιτησης δωσω σοι εως ημισους της βασιλειας μου
He even swore to her, "Whatever you ask me for I will give you, up to half my kingdom."
24 και εξελθουσα ειπεν τη μητρι αυτης τι αιτησωμαι η δε ειπεν την κεφαλην ιωαννου του βαπτιζοντος
She at once went out and said to her mother: "What shall I ask for?" "The head of John the Baptizer," she replied.
25 και εισελθουσα ευθυς μετα σπουδης προς τον βασιλεα ητησατο λεγουσα θελω ινα εξαυτης δως μοι επι πινακι την κεφαλην ιωαννου του βαπτιστου
The girl immediately came in, in haste, to the King and made her request. "My desire is," she said, "that you will give me, here and now, on a dish, the head of John the Baptist."
26 και περιλυπος γενομενος ο βασιλευς δια τους ορκους και τους ανακειμενους ουκ ηθελησεν αθετησαι αυτην
Then the King, though intensely sorry, yet for the sake of his oaths, and of his guests, would not break faith with her.
27 και ευθυς αποστειλας ο βασιλευς σπεκουλατορα επεταξεν ενεγκαι την κεφαλην αυτου
He at once sent a soldier of his guard with orders to bring John's head. So he went and beheaded him in the prison,
28 και απελθων απεκεφαλισεν αυτον εν τη φυλακη και ηνεγκεν την κεφαλην αυτου επι πινακι και εδωκεν αυτην τω κορασιω και το κορασιον εδωκεν αυτην τη μητρι αυτης
and brought his head on a dish and gave it to the young girl, who gave it to her mother.
29 και ακουσαντες οι μαθηται αυτου ηλθον και ηραν το πτωμα αυτου και εθηκαν αυτο εν μνημειω
When John's disciples heard of it, they came and took away his body and laid it in a tomb.
30 και συναγονται οι αποστολοι προς τον ιησουν και απηγγειλαν αυτω παντα οσα εποιησαν και οσα εδιδαξαν
When the Apostles had re-assembled round Jesus, they reported to Him all they had done and all they had taught.
31 και λεγει αυτοις δευτε υμεις αυτοι κατ ιδιαν εις ερημον τοπον και αναπαυσασθε ολιγον ησαν γαρ οι ερχομενοι και οι υπαγοντες πολλοι και ουδε φαγειν ευκαιρουν
Then He said to them, "Come away, all of you, to a quiet place, and rest awhile." For there were many coming and going, so that they had no time even for meals.
32 και απηλθον εν τω πλοιω εις ερημον τοπον κατ ιδιαν
Accordingly they sailed away in the boat to a solitary place apart.
33 και ειδον αυτους υπαγοντας και {VAR1: εγνωσαν } {VAR2: επεγνωσαν } πολλοι και πεζη απο πασων των πολεων συνεδραμον εκει και προηλθον αυτους
But the people saw them going, and many knew them; and coming by land they ran together there from all the neighbouring towns, and arrived before them.
34 και εξελθων ειδεν πολυν οχλον και εσπλαγχνισθη επ αυτους οτι ησαν ως προβατα μη εχοντα ποιμενα και ηρξατο διδασκειν αυτους πολλα
So when Jesus landed, He saw a vast multitude; and His heart was moved with pity for them, because they were like sheep which have no shepherd, and He proceeded to teach them many things.
35 και ηδη ωρας πολλης γενομενης προσελθοντες αυτω οι μαθηται αυτου ελεγον οτι ερημος εστιν ο τοπος και ηδη ωρα πολλη
By this time it was late; so His disciples came to Him, and said, "This is a lonely place, and the hour is now late:
36 απολυσον αυτους ινα απελθοντες εις τους κυκλω αγρους και κωμας αγορασωσιν εαυτοις τι φαγωσιν
send them away that they may go to the farms and villages near here and buy themselves something to eat."
37 ο δε αποκριθεις ειπεν αυτοις δοτε αυτοις υμεις φαγειν και λεγουσιν αυτω απελθοντες αγορασωμεν δηναριων διακοσιων αρτους και δωσομεν αυτοις φαγειν
"Give them food yourselves," He replied. "Are we," they asked, "to go and buy two hundred shillings' worth of bread and give them food?"
38 ο δε λεγει αυτοις ποσους {VAR1: εχετε αρτους } {VAR2: αρτους εχετε } υπαγετε ιδετε και γνοντες λεγουσιν πεντε και δυο ιχθυας
"How many loaves have you?" He inquired; "go and see." So they found out, and said, "Five; and a couple of fish."
39 και επεταξεν αυτοις {VAR1: ανακλιθηναι } {VAR2: ανακλιναι } παντας συμποσια συμποσια επι τω χλωρω χορτω
So He directed them to make all sit down in companies on the green grass.
40 και ανεπεσαν πρασιαι πρασιαι κατα εκατον και κατα πεντηκοντα
And they sat down in rows of hundreds and of fifties.
41 και λαβων τους πεντε αρτους και τους δυο ιχθυας αναβλεψας εις τον ουρανον ευλογησεν και κατεκλασεν τους αρτους και εδιδου τοις μαθηταις {VAR2: [αυτου] } ινα παρατιθωσιν αυτοις και τους δυο ιχθυας εμερισεν πασιν
Then He took the five loaves and the two fish, and lifting His eyes to Heaven He blessed the food. Then He broke the loaves into portions which He went on handing to the disciples to distribute; giving pieces also of the two fish to them all.
42 και εφαγον παντες και εχορτασθησαν
All ate and were fully satisfied.
43 και ηραν κλασματα δωδεκα κοφινων πληρωματα και απο των ιχθυων
And they carried away broken portions enough to fill twelve baskets, besides pieces of the fish.
44 και ησαν οι φαγοντες {VAR1: τους αρτους } {VAR2: [τους αρτους] } πεντακισχιλιοι ανδρες
Those who ate the bread were 5,000 adult men.
45 και ευθυς ηναγκασεν τους μαθητας αυτου εμβηναι εις το πλοιον και προαγειν εις το περαν προς βηθσαιδαν εως αυτος απολυει τον οχλον
Immediately afterwards He made His disciples go on board the boat and cross over to Bethsaida, leaving Him behind to dismiss the crowd.
46 και αποταξαμενος αυτοις απηλθεν εις το ορος προσευξασθαι
He then bade the people farewell, and went away up the hill to pray.
47 και οψιας γενομενης ην το πλοιον εν μεσω της θαλασσης και αυτος μονος επι της γης
When evening was come, the boat was half way across the Lake, while he Himself was on shore alone.
48 και ιδων αυτους βασανιζομενους εν τω ελαυνειν ην γαρ ο ανεμος εναντιος αυτοις περι τεταρτην φυλακην της νυκτος ερχεται προς αυτους περιπατων επι της θαλασσης και ηθελεν παρελθειν αυτους
But when He saw them distressed with rowing (for the wind was against them), towards morning He came towards them walking on the Lake, as if intending to pass them.
49 οι δε ιδοντες αυτον επι της θαλασσης περιπατουντα εδοξαν οτι φαντασμα εστιν και ανεκραξαν
They saw Him walking on the water, and thinking that it was a spirit they cried out;
50 παντες γαρ αυτον ειδον και εταραχθησαν ο δε ευθυς ελαλησεν μετ αυτων και λεγει αυτοις θαρσειτε εγω ειμι μη φοβεισθε
for they all saw Him and were terrified. He, however, immediately spoke to them. "There is no danger," He said; "it is I; be not alarmed."
51 και ανεβη προς αυτους εις το πλοιον και εκοπασεν ο ανεμος και λιαν {VAR2: [εκ περισσου] } εν εαυτοις εξισταντο
Then He went up to them on board the boat, and the wind lulled; and they were beside themselves with silent amazement.
52 ου γαρ συνηκαν επι τοις αρτοις αλλ ην αυτων η καρδια πεπωρωμενη
For they had not learned the lesson taught by the loaves, but their minds were dull.
53 και διαπερασαντες επι την γην ηλθον εις γεννησαρετ και προσωρμισθησαν
Having crossed over they drew to land in Gennesaret and came to anchor.
54 και εξελθοντων αυτων εκ του πλοιου ευθυς επιγνοντες αυτον
But no sooner had they gone ashore than the people immediately recognized Him.
55 περιεδραμον ολην την χωραν εκεινην και ηρξαντο επι τοις κραβαττοις τους κακως εχοντας περιφερειν οπου ηκουον οτι εστιν
Then they scoured the whole district, and began to bring Him the sick on their mats wherever they heard He was.
56 και οπου αν εισεπορευετο εις κωμας η εις πολεις η εις αγρους εν ταις αγοραις ετιθεσαν τους ασθενουντας και παρεκαλουν αυτον ινα καν του κρασπεδου του ιματιου αυτου αψωνται και οσοι αν ηψαντο αυτου εσωζοντο
And enter wherever He might--village or town or hamlet--they laid their sick in the open places, and entreated Him to let them touch were it but the tassel of His robe; and all, whoever touched Him, were restored to health.
