Κατα Μαρκον 8
1 εν εκειναις ταις ημεραις παλιν πολλου οχλου οντος και μη εχοντων τι φαγωσιν προσκαλεσαμενος τους μαθητας λεγει αυτοις
About that time there was again an immense crowd, and they found themselves with nothing to eat. So He called His disciples to Him.
2 σπλαγχνιζομαι επι τον οχλον οτι ηδη ημεραι τρεις προσμενουσιν μοι και ουκ εχουσιν τι φαγωσιν
"My heart yearns over the people," He said; "for this is now the third day they have remained with me, and they have nothing to eat.
3 και εαν απολυσω αυτους νηστεις εις οικον αυτων εκλυθησονται εν τη οδω και τινες αυτων απο μακροθεν {VAR1: εισιν } {VAR2: ηκασιν }
If I were to send them home hungry, they would faint on the way, some of them having come a great distance."
4 και απεκριθησαν αυτω οι μαθηται αυτου οτι ποθεν τουτους δυνησεται τις ωδε χορτασαι αρτων επ ερημιας
"Where can we possibly get bread here in this remote place to satisfy such a crowd?" answered His disciples.
5 και ηρωτα αυτους ποσους εχετε αρτους οι δε ειπαν επτα
"How many loaves have you?" He asked. "Seven," they said.
6 και παραγγελλει τω οχλω αναπεσειν επι της γης και λαβων τους επτα αρτους ευχαριστησας εκλασεν και εδιδου τοις μαθηταις αυτου ινα παρατιθωσιν και παρεθηκαν τω οχλω
So He passed the word to the people to sit down on the ground. Then taking the seven loaves He blessed them, and broke them into portions and proceeded to give them to His disciples for them to distribute, and they distributed them to the people.
7 και ειχον ιχθυδια ολιγα και ευλογησας αυτα ειπεν και ταυτα παρατιθεναι
They had also a few small fish. He blessed them, and He told His disciples to distribute these also.
8 και εφαγον και εχορτασθησαν και ηραν περισσευματα κλασματων επτα σπυριδας
So the people ate an abundant meal; and what remained over they picked up and carried away--seven hampers of broken pieces.
9 ησαν δε ως τετρακισχιλιοι και απελυσεν αυτους
The number fed were about 4,000. Then He sent them away,
10 και ευθυς εμβας εις το πλοιον μετα των μαθητων αυτου ηλθεν εις τα μερη δαλμανουθα
and at once going on board with His disciples He came into the district of Dalmanutha.
11 και εξηλθον οι φαρισαιοι και ηρξαντο συζητειν αυτω ζητουντες παρ αυτου σημειον απο του ουρανου πειραζοντες αυτον
The Pharisees followed Him and began to dispute with Him, asking Him for a sign in the sky, to make trial of Him.
12 και αναστεναξας τω πνευματι αυτου λεγει τι η γενεα αυτη ζητει σημειον αμην λεγω {VAR2: υμιν } ει δοθησεται τη γενεα ταυτη σημειον
Heaving a deep and troubled sigh, He said, "Why do the men of to-day ask for a sign? In solemn truth I tell you that no sign will be given to the men of to-day."
13 και αφεις αυτους παλιν εμβας απηλθεν εις το περαν
So He left them, went on board again, and came away to the other side.
14 και επελαθοντο λαβειν αρτους και ει μη ενα αρτον ουκ ειχον μεθ εαυτων εν τω πλοιω
Now they had forgotten to take bread, nor had they more than a single loaf with them in the boat;
15 και διεστελλετο αυτοις λεγων ορατε βλεπετε απο της ζυμης των φαρισαιων και της ζυμης ηρωδου
and when He admonished them, "See to it, be on your guard against the yeast of the Pharisees and the yeast of Herod,"
16 και διελογιζοντο προς αλληλους οτι αρτους ουκ εχουσιν
they explained His words to one another by saying, "We have no bread!"
17 και γνους λεγει αυτοις τι διαλογιζεσθε οτι αρτους ουκ εχετε ουπω νοειτε ουδε συνιετε πεπωρωμενην εχετε την καρδιαν υμων
He perceived what they were saying, and He said to them, "What is this discussion of yours about having no bread? Do you not yet see and understand? Are your minds so dull of comprehension?
18 οφθαλμους εχοντες ου βλεπετε και ωτα εχοντες ουκ ακουετε και ου μνημονευετε
You have eyes! can you not see? You have ears! can you not hear? and have you no memory?
19 οτε τους πεντε αρτους εκλασα εις τους πεντακισχιλιους ποσους κοφινους κλασματων πληρεις ηρατε λεγουσιν αυτω δωδεκα
When I broke up the five loaves for the 5,000 men, how many baskets did you carry away full of broken portions?" "Twelve," they said.
20 οτε τους επτα εις τους τετρακισχιλιους ποσων σπυριδων πληρωματα κλασματων ηρατε και λεγουσιν {VAR1: αυτω } {VAR2: [αυτω] } επτα
"And when the seven for the 4,000, how many hampers full of portions did you take away?" "Seven," they answered.
21 και ελεγεν αυτοις ουπω συνιετε
"Do you not yet understand?" He said.
22 και ερχονται εις βηθσαιδαν και φερουσιν αυτω τυφλον και παρακαλουσιν αυτον ινα αυτου αψηται
And they came to Bethsaida. And a blind man was brought to Jesus and they entreated Him to touch him.
23 και επιλαβομενος της χειρος του τυφλου εξηνεγκεν αυτον εξω της κωμης και πτυσας εις τα ομματα αυτου επιθεις τας χειρας αυτω επηρωτα αυτον ει τι βλεπεις
So He took the blind man by the arm and brought him out of the village, and spitting into his eyes He put His hands on him and asked him, "Can you see anything?"
24 και αναβλεψας ελεγεν βλεπω τους ανθρωπους οτι ως δενδρα ορω περιπατουντας
He looked up and said, "I can see the people: I see them like trees--only walking."
25 ειτα παλιν {VAR1: εθηκεν } {VAR2: επεθηκεν } τας χειρας επι τους οφθαλμους αυτου και διεβλεψεν και απεκατεστη και ενεβλεπεν τηλαυγως απαντα
Then for the second time He put His hands on the man's eyes, and the man, looking steadily, recovered his sight and saw everything distinctly.
26 και απεστειλεν αυτον εις οικον αυτου λεγων μηδε εις την κωμην εισελθης
So He sent him home, and added, "Do not even go into the village."
27 και εξηλθεν ο ιησους και οι μαθηται αυτου εις τας κωμας καισαρειας της φιλιππου και εν τη οδω επηρωτα τους μαθητας αυτου λεγων αυτοις τινα με λεγουσιν οι ανθρωποι ειναι
From that place Jesus and His disciples went to the villages belonging to Caesarea Philippi. On the way He began to ask His disciples, "Who do people say that I am?"
28 οι δε ειπαν αυτω λεγοντες {VAR1: οτι } {VAR2: [οτι] } ιωαννην τον βαπτιστην και αλλοι ηλιαν αλλοι δε οτι εις των προφητων
"John the Baptist," they replied, "but others say Elijah, and others, that it is one of the Prophets."
29 και αυτος επηρωτα αυτους υμεις δε τινα με λεγετε ειναι αποκριθεις ο πετρος λεγει αυτω συ ει ο χριστος
Then He asked them pointedly, "But you yourselves, who do you say that I am?" "You are the Christ," answered Peter.
30 και επετιμησεν αυτοις ινα μηδενι λεγωσιν περι αυτου
And He strictly forbad them to tell this about Him to any one.
31 και ηρξατο διδασκειν αυτους οτι δει τον υιον του ανθρωπου πολλα παθειν και αποδοκιμασθηναι υπο των πρεσβυτερων και των αρχιερεων και των γραμματεων και αποκτανθηναι και μετα τρεις ημερας αναστηναι
And now for the first time He told them, "The Son of Man must endure much suffering, and be rejected by the Elders and the High Priests and the Scribes, and be put to death, and after two days rise to life."
32 και παρρησια τον λογον ελαλει και προσλαβομενος ο πετρος αυτον ηρξατο επιτιμαν αυτω
This He told them plainly; whereupon Peter took Him and began to remonstrate with Him.
33 ο δε επιστραφεις και ιδων τους μαθητας αυτου επετιμησεν πετρω και λεγει υπαγε οπισω μου σατανα οτι ου φρονεις τα του θεου αλλα τα των ανθρωπων
But turning round and seeing His disciples, He rebuked Peter. "Get behind me, Adversary," He said, "for your thoughts are not God's thoughts, but men's."
34 και προσκαλεσαμενος τον οχλον συν τοις μαθηταις αυτου ειπεν αυτοις ει τις θελει οπισω μου {VAR1: ελθειν } {VAR2: ακολουθειν } απαρνησασθω εαυτον και αρατω τον σταυρον αυτου και ακολουθειτω μοι
Then calling to Him the crowd and also His disciples, He said to them, "If any one is desirous of following me, let him ignore self and take up his cross, and so be my follower.
35 ος γαρ εαν θελη την {VAR1: εαυτου ψυχην } {VAR2: ψυχην αυτου } σωσαι απολεσει αυτην ος δ αν απολεσει την ψυχην αυτου ενεκεν {VAR1: [εμου και] } {VAR2: εμου και } του ευαγγελιου σωσει αυτην
For whoever is bent on securing his life will lose it, but he who loses his life for my sake, and for the sake of the Good News, will secure it.
36 τι γαρ ωφελει ανθρωπον κερδησαι τον κοσμον ολον και ζημιωθηναι την ψυχην αυτου
Why, what does it benefit a man to gain the whole world and forfeit his life?
37 τι γαρ δοι ανθρωπος ανταλλαγμα της ψυχης αυτου
For what could a man give to buy back his life?
38 ος γαρ εαν επαισχυνθη με και τους εμους λογους εν τη γενεα ταυτη τη μοιχαλιδι και αμαρτωλω και ο υιος του ανθρωπου επαισχυνθησεται αυτον οταν ελθη εν τη δοξη του πατρος αυτου μετα των αγγελων των αγιων
Every one, however, who has been ashamed of me and of my teachings in this faithless and sinful age, of him the Son of Man also will be ashamed when He comes in His Father's glory with the holy angels."
