Luke 16

Ελεγε δε και προς τους μαθητας αυτου Ητο ανθρωπος τις πλουσιος, οστις ειχεν οικονομον, και ουτος κατηγορηθη προς αυτον ως διασκορπιζων τα υπαρχοντα αυτου.

And he said also unto his disciples, There was a certain rich man, which had a steward; and the same was accused unto him that he had wasted his goods.

Και κραξας αυτον, ειπε προς αυτον Τι ειναι τουτο το οποιον ακουω περι σου; δος τον λογαριασμον της οικονομιας σου διοτι δεν θελεις δυνηθη πλεον να ησαι οικονομος.

And he called him, and said unto him, How is it that I hear this of thee? give an account of thy stewardship; for thou mayest be no longer steward.

Ειπε δε καθ εαυτον ο οικονομος Τι να καμω, επειδη ο κυριος μου αφαιρει απ εμου την οικονομιαν; να σκαπτω δεν δυναμαι, να ζητω εντρεπομαι

Then the steward said within himself, What shall I do? for my lord taketh away from me the stewardship: I cannot dig; to beg I am ashamed.

ενοησα τι πρεπει να καμω, δια να με δεχθωσιν εις τους οικους αυτων, οταν αποβληθω της οικονομιας.

I am resolved what to do, that, when I am put out of the stewardship, they may receive me into their houses.

Και προσκαλεσας ενα εκαστον των χρεωφειλετων του κυριου αυτου, ειπε προς τον πρωτον Ποσον χρεωστεις εις τον κυριον μου;

So he called every one of his lord's debtors unto him, and said unto the first, How much owest thou unto my lord?

Ο δε ειπεν Εκατον μετρα ελαιου. Και ειπε προς αυτον Λαβε το εγγραφον σου και καθησας ταχεως γραψον πεντηκοντα.

And he said, An hundred measures of oil. And he said unto him, Take thy bill, and sit down quickly, and write fifty.

Επειτα ειπε προς αλλον Συ δε ποσον χρεωστεις; Ο δε ειπεν Εκατον μοδια σιτου. Και λεγει προς αυτον Λαβε το εγγραφον σου και γραψον ογδοηκοντα.

Then said he to another, And how much owest thou? And he said, An hundred measures of wheat. And he said unto him, Take thy bill, and write fourscore.

Και επηνεσεν ο κυριος τον αδικον οικονομον, οτι φρονιμως επραξε διοτι οι υιοι του αιωνος τουτου ειναι φρονιμωτεροι εις την εαυτων γενεαν παρα τους υιους του φωτος.

And the lord commended the unjust steward, because he had done wisely: for the children of this world are in their generation wiser than the children of light.

Και εγω σας λεγω Καμετε εις εαυτους φιλους εκ του μαμωνα της αδικιας, δια να σας δεχθωσιν εις τας αιωνιους σκηνας, οταν εκλειψητε.

And I say unto you, Make to yourselves friends of the mammon of unrighteousness; that, when ye fail, they may receive you into everlasting habitations.

Ο εν τω ελαχιστω πιστος και εν τω πολλω πιστος ειναι, και ο εν τω ελαχιστω αδικος και εν τω πολλω αδικος ειναι.

He that is faithful in that which is least is faithful also in much: and he that is unjust in the least is unjust also in much.

Εαν λοιπον εις τον αδικον μαμωνα δεν εφανητε πιστοι, τον αληθινον πλουτον τις θελει σας εμπιστευθη;

If therefore ye have not been faithful in the unrighteous mammon, who will commit to your trust the true riches?

Και εαν εις το ξενον δεν εφανητε πιστοι, τις θελει σας δωσει το ιδικον σας;

And if ye have not been faithful in that which is another man's, who shall give you that which is your own?

Ουδεις δουλος δυναται να δουλευη δυο κυριους διοτι η τον ενα θελει μισησει και τον αλλον θελει αγαπησει η εις τον ενα θελει προσκολληθη και τον αλλον θελει καταφρονησει. Δεν δυνασθε να δουλευητε Θεον και μαμωνα.

No servant can serve two masters: for either he will hate the one, and love the other; or else he will hold to the one, and despise the other. Ye cannot serve God and mammon.

Ηκουον δε ταυτα παντα και οι Φαρισαιοι, φιλαργυροι οντες, και περιεγελων αυτον.

And the Pharisees also, who were covetous, heard all these things: and they derided him.

Και ειπε προς αυτους Σεις εισθε οι δικαιονοντες εαυτους ενωπιον των ανθρωπων, ο Θεος ομως γνωριζει τας καρδιας σας διοτι εκεινο, το οποιον μεταξυ των ανθρωπων ειναι υψηλον, βδελυγμα ειναι ενωπιον του Θεου.

And he said unto them, Ye are they which justify yourselves before men; but God knoweth your hearts: for that which is highly esteemed among men is abomination in the sight of God.

Ο νομος και οι προφηται εως Ιωαννου υπηρχον απο τοτε η βασιλεια του Θεου ευαγγελιζεται, και πας τις βιαζεται να εισελθη εις αυτην.

The law and the prophets were until John: since that time the kingdom of God is preached, and every man presseth into it.

Ευκολωτερον δε ειναι ο ουρανος και η γη να παρελθωσι παρα μια κεραια του νομου να πεση.

And it is easier for heaven and earth to pass, than one tittle of the law to fail.

Πας οστις χωριζεται την γυναικα αυτου και νυμφευεται αλλην, μοιχευει, και πας οστις νυμφευεται κεχωρισμενην απο ανδρος, μοιχευει.

Whosoever putteth away his wife, and marrieth another, committeth adultery: and whosoever marrieth her that is put away from her husband committeth adultery.

Ητο δε ανθρωπος τις πλουσιος και ενεδυετο πορφυραν και στολην βυσσινην, ευφραινομενος καθ ημεραν μεγαλοπρεπως.

There was a certain rich man, which was clothed in purple and fine linen, and fared sumptuously every day:

Ητο δε πτωχος τις ονομαζομενος Λαζαρος, οστις εκειτο πεπληγωμενος πλησιον της πυλης αυτου

And there was a certain beggar named Lazarus, which was laid at his gate, full of sores,

και επεθυμει να χορτασθη απο των ψιχιων των πιπτοντων απο της τραπεζης του πλουσιου αλλα και οι κυνες ερχομενοι εγλειφον τας πληγας αυτου.

And desiring to be fed with the crumbs which fell from the rich man's table: moreover the dogs came and licked his sores.

Απεθανε δε ο πτωχος και εφερθη υπο των αγγελων εις τον κολπον του Αβρααμ απεθανε δε και ο πλουσιος και εταφη.

And it came to pass, that the beggar died, and was carried by the angels into Abraham's bosom: the rich man also died, and was buried;

Και εν τω αδη υψωσας τους οφθαλμους αυτου, ενω ητο εν βασανοις, βλεπει τον Αβρααμ απο μακροθεν και τον Λαζαρον εν τοις κολποις αυτου.

And in hell he lift up his eyes, being in torments, and seeth Abraham afar off, and Lazarus in his bosom.

Και αυτος φωναξας ειπε Πατερ Αβρααμ, ελεησον με και πεμψον τον Λαζαρον, δια να βαψη το ακρον του δακτυλου αυτου εις υδωρ και να καταδροσιση την γλωσσαν μου, διοτι βασανιζομαι εν τη φλογι ταυτη

And he cried and said, Father Abraham, have mercy on me, and send Lazarus, that he may dip the tip of his finger in water, and cool my tongue; for I am tormented in this flame.

ειπε δε ο Αβρααμ Τεκνον, ενθυμηθητι οτι απελαβες συ τα αγαθα σου εν τη ζωη σου, και ο Λαζαρος ομοιως τα κακα τωρα ουτος μεν παρηγορειται, συ δε βασανιζεσαι

But Abraham said, Son, remember that thou in thy lifetime receivedst thy good things, and likewise Lazarus evil things: but now he is comforted, and thou art tormented.

και εκτος τουτων παντων, μεταξυ ημων και υμων χασμα μεγα ειναι εστηριγμενον, ωστε οι θελοντες να διαβωσιν εντευθεν προς εσας να μη δυνανται, μηδε οι εκειθεν να διαπερωσι προς υμας.

And beside all this, between us and you there is a great gulf fixed: so that they which would pass from hence to you cannot; neither can they pass to us, that would come from thence.

Ειπε δε παρακαλω σε λοιπον, πατερ, να πεμψης αυτον εις τον οικον του πατρος μου

Then he said, I pray thee therefore, father, that thou wouldest send him to my father's house:

διοτι εχω πεντε αδελφους δια να μαρτυρηση εις αυτους, ωστε να μη ελθωσι και αυτοι εις τον τοπον τουτον της βασανου.

For I have five brethren; that he may testify unto them, lest they also come into this place of torment.

Λεγει προς αυτον ο Αβρααμ, Εχουσι τον Μωυσην και τους προφητας ας ακουσωσιν αυτους.

Abraham saith unto him, They have Moses and the prophets; let them hear them.

Ο δε ειπεν Ουχι, πατερ Αβρααμ, αλλ εαν τις απο νεκρων υπαγη προς αυτους, θελουσι μετανοησει.

And he said, Nay, father Abraham: but if one went unto them from the dead, they will repent.

Ειπε δε προς αυτον Εαν τον Μωυσην και τους προφητας δεν ακουωσιν, ουδε εαν τις αναστηθη εκ νεκρων θελουσι πεισθη.

And he said unto him, If they hear not Moses and the prophets, neither will they be persuaded, though one rose from the dead.
