Matthew 21

And when they drew nigh unto Jerusalem, and were come to Bethphage, unto the mount of Olives, then sent Jesus two disciples,

Και οτε επλησιασαν εις Ιεροσολυμα και ηλθον εις Βηθφαγη προς το ορος των ελαιων, τοτε ο Ιησους απεστειλε δυο μαθητας,

Saying unto them, Go into the village over against you, and straightway ye shall find an ass tied, and a colt with her: loose them, and bring them unto me.

λεγων προς αυτους Υπαγετε εις την κωμην την απεναντι υμων, και ευθυς θελετε ευρει ονον δεδεμενην και πωλαριον μετ αυτης λυσατε και φερετε μοι.

And if any man say ought unto you, ye shall say, The Lord hath need of them; and straightway he will send them.

Και εαν τις σας ειπη τι, θελετε ειπει οτι ο Κυριος εχει χρειαν αυτων και ευθυς θελει αποστειλει αυτα.

All this was done, that it might be fulfilled which was spoken by the prophet, saying,

Τουτο δε ολον εγεινε δια να πληρωθη το ρηθεν δια του προφητου, λεγοντος

Tell ye the daughter of Sion, Behold, thy King cometh unto thee, meek, and sitting upon an ass, and a colt the foal of an ass.

Ειπατε προς την θυγατερα Σιων, Ιδου, ο βασιλευς σου ερχεται προς σε πρας και καθημενος επι ονου και πωλου υιου υποζυγιου.

And the disciples went, and did as Jesus commanded them,

Πορευθεντες δε οι μαθηται και ποιησαντες καθως προσεταξεν αυτους ο Ιησους,

And brought the ass, and the colt, and put on them their clothes, and they set him thereon.

εφεραν την ονον και το πωλαριον, και εβαλον επανω αυτων τα ιματια αυτων και επεκαθισαν αυτον επανω αυτων.

And a very great multitude spread their garments in the way; others cut down branches from the trees, and strawed them in the way.

Ο δε περισσοτερος οχλος εστρωσαν τα ιματια εαυτων εις την οδον, αλλοι δε εκοπτον κλαδους απο των δενδρων και εστρωνον εις την οδον.

And the multitudes that went before, and that followed, cried, saying, Hosanna to the Son of David: Blessed is he that cometh in the name of the Lord; Hosanna in the highest.

Οι δε οχλοι οι προπορευομενοι και οι ακολουθουντες εκραζον, λεγοντες Ωσαννα τω υιω Δαβιδ ευλογημενος ο ερχομενος εν ονοματι Κυριου Ωσαννα εν τοις υψιστοις.

And when he was come into Jerusalem, all the city was moved, saying, Who is this?

Και οτε εισηλθεν εις Ιεροσολυμα, εσεισθη πασα η πολις, λεγουσα Τις ειναι ουτος;

And the multitude said, This is Jesus the prophet of Nazareth of Galilee.

Οι δε οχλοι ελεγον Ουτος ειναι Ιησους ο προφητης ο απο Ναζαρετ της Γαλιλαιας.

And Jesus went into the temple of God, and cast out all them that sold and bought in the temple, and overthrew the tables of the moneychangers, and the seats of them that sold doves,

Και εισηλθεν ο Ιησους εις το ιερον του Θεου και εξεβαλε παντας τους πωλουντας και αγοραζοντας εν τω ιερω, και τας τραπεζας των αργυραμοιβων ανετρεψε και τα καθισματα των πωλουντων τας περιστερας,

And said unto them, It is written, My house shall be called the house of prayer; but ye have made it a den of thieves.

και λεγει προς αυτους Ειναι γεγραμμενον, Ο οικος μου οικος προσευχης θελει ονομαζεσθαι; σεις δε εκαμετε αυτον σπηλαιον ληστων.

And the blind and the lame came to him in the temple; and he healed them.

Και προσηλθον προς αυτον τυφλοι και χωλοι εν τω ιερω και εθεραπευσεν αυτους.

And when the chief priests and scribes saw the wonderful things that he did, and the children crying in the temple, and saying, Hosanna to the Son of David; they were sore displeased,

Ιδοντες δε οι αρχιερεις και οι γραμματεις τα θαυμασια, τα οποια εκαμε, και τους παιδας κραζοντας εν τω ιερω και λεγοντας, Ωσαννα τω υιω Δαβιδ, ηγανακτησαν

And said unto him, Hearest thou what these say? And Jesus saith unto them, Yea; have ye never read, Out of the mouth of babes and sucklings thou hast perfected praise?

και ειπον προς αυτον Ακουεις τι λεγουσιν ουτοι; Ο δε Ιησους λεγει προς αυτους Ναι ποτε δεν ανεγνωσατε οτι εκ στοματος νηπιων και θηλαζοντων ητοιμασας αινεσιν;

And he left them, and went out of the city into Bethany; and he lodged there.

Και αφησας αυτους εξηλθεν εξω της πολεως εις Βηθανιαν και διενυκτερευσεν εκει.

Now in the morning as he returned into the city, he hungered.

Οτε δε το πρωι επεστρεφεν εις την πολιν, επεινασε

And when he saw a fig tree in the way, he came to it, and found nothing thereon, but leaves only, and said unto it, Let no fruit grow on thee henceforward for ever. And presently the fig tree withered away.

και ιδων μιαν συκην επι της οδου, ηλθε προς αυτην και ουδεν ηυρεν επ αυτην ειμη φυλλα μονον, και λεγει προς αυτην να μη γεινη πλεον απο σου καρπος εις τον αιωνα. Και παρευθυς εξηρανθη η συκη.

And when the disciples saw it, they marvelled, saying, How soon is the fig tree withered away!

Και ιδοντες οι μαθηται, εθαυμασαν λεγοντες Πως παρευθυς εξηρανθη συκη;

Jesus answered and said unto them, Verily I say unto you, If ye have faith, and doubt not, ye shall not only do this which is done to the fig tree, but also if ye shall say unto this mountain, Be thou removed, and be thou cast into the sea; it shall be done.

Αποκριθεις δε ο Ιησους ειπε προς αυτους Αληθως σας λεγω, εαν εχητε πιστιν και δεν διστασητε, ουχι μονον το της συκης θελετε καμει, αλλα και εις το ορος τουτο αν ειπητε, Σηκωθητι και ριφθητι εις την θαλασσαν, θελει γεινει

And all things, whatsoever ye shall ask in prayer, believing, ye shall receive.

και παντα οσα αν ζητησητε εν τη προσευχη εχοντες πιστιν θελετε λαβει.

And when he was come into the temple, the chief priests and the elders of the people came unto him as he was teaching, and said, By what authority doest thou these things? and who gave thee this authority?

Και οτε ηλθεν εις το ιερον, προσηλθον προς αυτον, ενω εδιδασκεν οι αρχιερεις και οι πρεσβυτεροι του λαου, λεγοντες Εν ποια εξουσια πραττεις ταυτα, και τις σοι εδωκε την εξουσιαν ταυτην;

And Jesus answered and said unto them, I also will ask you one thing, which if ye tell me, I in like wise will tell you by what authority I do these things.

Αποκριθεις δε ο Ιησους, ειπε προς αυτους Θελω σας ερωτησει και εγω ενα λογον, τον οποιον εαν μοι ειπητε, και εγω θελω σας ειπει εν ποια εξουσια πραττω ταυτα

The baptism of John, whence was it? from heaven, or of men? And they reasoned with themselves, saying, If we shall say, From heaven; he will say unto us, Why did ye not then believe him?

το βαπτισμα του Ιωαννου ποθεν ητο, εξ ουρανου η εξ ανθρωπων; Και εκεινοι διελογιζοντο καθ εαυτους λεγοντες Εαν ειπωμεν, Εξ ουρανου, θελει ειπει προς ημας, Δια τι λοιπον δεν επιστευσατε εις αυτον

But if we shall say, Of men; we fear the people; for all hold John as a prophet.

εαν δε ειπωμεν, Εξ ανθρωπων, φοβουμεθα τον οχλον διοτι παντες εχουσι τον Ιωαννην ως προφητην.

And they answered Jesus, and said, We cannot tell. And he said unto them, Neither tell I you by what authority I do these things.

Και αποκριθεντες προς τον Ιησουν, ειπον Δεν εξευρομεν. Ειπε προς αυτους και αυτος Ουδε εγω λεγω προς υμας εν ποια εξουσια πραττω ταυτα.

But what think ye? A certain man had two sons; and he came to the first, and said, Son, go work to day in my vineyard.

Αλλα τι σας φαινεται; Ανθρωπος τις ειχε δυο υιους, και ελθων προς τον πρωτον ειπε Τεκνον, υπαγε σημερον εργαζου εν τω αμπελωνι μου.

He answered and said, I will not: but afterward he repented, and went.

Ο δε αποκριθεις ειπε Δεν θελω υστερον ομως μετανοησας υπηγε.

And he came to the second, and said likewise. And he answered and said, I go, sir: and went not.

Και ελθων προς τον δευτερον ειπεν ωσαυτως. Και εκεινος αποκριθεις ειπεν Εγω υπαγω, κυριε και δεν υπηγε.

Whether of them twain did the will of his father? They say unto him, The first. Jesus saith unto them, Verily I say unto you, That the publicans and the harlots go into the kingdom of God before you.

Τις εκ των δυο εκαμε το θελημα του πατρος; Λεγουσι προς αυτον Ο πρωτος. Λεγει προς αυτους ο Ιησους Αληθως σας λεγω οτι οι τελωναι και αι πορναι υπαγουσι προτερον υμων εις την βασιλειαν του Θεου.

For John came unto you in the way of righteousness, and ye believed him not: but the publicans and the harlots believed him: and ye, when ye had seen it, repented not afterward, that ye might believe him.

Διοτι ηλθε προς υμας ο Ιωαννης εν οδω δικαιοσυνης, και δεν επιστευσατε εις αυτον οι τελωναι ομως και αι πορναι επιστευσαν εις αυτον σεις δε ιδοντες δεν μετεμεληθητε υστερον, ωστε να πιστευσητε εις αυτον.

Hear another parable: There was a certain householder, which planted a vineyard, and hedged it round about, and digged a winepress in it, and built a tower, and let it out to husbandmen, and went into a far country:

Αλλην παραβολην ακουσατε. Ητο ανθρωπος τις οικοδεσποτης, οστις εφυτευσεν αμπελωνα και περιεβαλεν εις αυτον φραγμον και εσκαψεν εν αυτω ληνον και ωκοδομησε πυργον, και εμισθωσεν αυτον εις γεωργους και απεδημησεν.

And when the time of the fruit drew near, he sent his servants to the husbandmen, that they might receive the fruits of it.

Οτε δε επλησιασεν ο καιρος των καρπων, απεστειλε τους δουλους αυτου προς τους γεωργους δια να λαβωσι τους καρπους αυτου.

And the husbandmen took his servants, and beat one, and killed another, and stoned another.

Και πιασαντες οι γεωργοι τους δουλους αυτου, αλλον μεν εδειραν, αλλον δε εφονευσαν, αλλον δε ελιθοβολησαν.

Again, he sent other servants more than the first: and they did unto them likewise.

Παλιν απεστειλεν αλλους δουλους πλειοτερους των πρωτων, και εκαμον εις αυτους ωσαυτως.

But last of all he sent unto them his son, saying, They will reverence my son.

Υστερον δε απεστειλε προς αυτους τον υιον αυτου λεγων Θελουσιν εντραπη τον υιον μου.

But when the husbandmen saw the son, they said among themselves, This is the heir; come, let us kill him, and let us seize on his inheritance.

Αλλ οι γεωργοι, ιδοντες τον υιον, ειπον προς αλληλους Ουτος ειναι ο κληρονομος ελθετε, ας φονευσωμεν αυτον και ας κατακρατησωμεν την κληρονομιαν αυτου.

And they caught him, and cast him out of the vineyard, and slew him.

Και πιασαντες αυτον, εξεβαλον εξω του αμπελωνος και εφονευσαν.

When the lord therefore of the vineyard cometh, what will he do unto those husbandmen?

Οταν λοιπον ελθη ο κυριος του αμπελωνος, τι θελει καμει εις τους γεωργους εκεινους;

They say unto him, He will miserably destroy those wicked men, and will let out his vineyard unto other husbandmen, which shall render him the fruits in their seasons.

Λεγουσι προς αυτον Κακους κακως θελει απολεσει αυτους, και τον αμπελωνα θελει μισθωσει εις αλλους γεωργους, οιτινες θελουσιν αποδωσει εις αυτον τους καρπους εν τοις καιροις αυτων.

Jesus saith unto them, Did ye never read in the scriptures, The stone which the builders rejected, the same is become the head of the corner: this is the Lord's doing, and it is marvellous in our eyes?

Λεγει προς αυτους ο Ιησους Ποτε δεν ανεγνωσατε εν ταις γραφαις, Ο λιθος, τον οποιον απεδοκιμασαν οι οικοδομουντες, ουτος εγεινε κεφαλη γωνιας παρα Κυριου εγεινεν αυτη και ειναι θαυμαστη εν οφθαλμοις υμων;

Therefore say I unto you, The kingdom of God shall be taken from you, and given to a nation bringing forth the fruits thereof.

Δια τουτο λεγω προς υμας οτι θελει αφαιρεθη αφ υμων η βασιλεια του Θεου και θελει δοθη εις εθνος καμνον τους καρπους αυτης

And whosoever shall fall on this stone shall be broken: but on whomsoever it shall fall, it will grind him to powder.

και οστις πεση επι τον λιθον τουτον θελει συντριφθη εις οντινα δε επιπεση, θελει κατασυντριψει αυτον.

And when the chief priests and Pharisees had heard his parables, they perceived that he spake of them.

Και ακουσαντες οι αρχιερεις και οι Φαρισαιοι τας παραβολας αυτου, ενοησαν οτι περι αυτων λεγει

But when they sought to lay hands on him, they feared the multitude, because they took him for a prophet.

και ζητουντες να πιασωσιν αυτον, εφοβηθησαν τους οχλους, επειδη ειχον αυτον ως προφητην.
