Luke 18

Ελεγε δε και παραβολην προς αυτους περι του οτι πρεπει παντοτε να προσευχωνται και να μη αποκαμνωσι,

And he spake a parable unto them to this end, that men ought always to pray, and not to faint;

λεγων Κριτης τις ητο εν τινι πολει, οστις τον Θεον δεν εφοβειτο και ανθρωπον δεν εντρεπετο.

Saying, There was in a city a judge, which feared not God, neither regarded man:

Ητο δε χηρα τις εν εκεινη τη πολει και ηρχετο προς αυτον, λεγουσα Εκδικησον με απο του αντιδικου μου.

And there was a widow in that city; and she came unto him, saying, Avenge me of mine adversary.

Και μεχρι τινος δεν ηθελησε μετα δε ταυτα ειπε καθ εαυτον Αν και τον Θεον δεν φοβωμαι και ανθρωπον δεν εντρεπωμαι,

And he would not for a while: but afterward he said within himself, Though I fear not God, nor regard man;

τουλαχιστον επειδη με ενοχλει η χηρα αυτη, ας εκδικησω αυτην, δια να μη ερχηται παντοτε και με βασανιζη.

Yet because this widow troubleth me, I will avenge her, lest by her continual coming she weary me.

Και ειπεν ο Κυριος Ακουσατε τι λεγει ο αδικος κριτης

And the Lord said, Hear what the unjust judge saith.

ο δε Θεος δεν θελει καμει την εκδικησιν των εκλεκτων αυτου των βοωντων προς αυτον ημεραν και νυκτα, αν και μακροθυμη δι αυτους;

And shall not God avenge his own elect, which cry day and night unto him, though he bear long with them?

σας λεγω οτι θελει καμει την εκδικησιν αυτων ταχεως. Πλην ο Υιος του ανθρωπου, οταν ελθη, αρα γε θελει ευρει την πιστιν επι της γης;

I tell you that he will avenge them speedily. Nevertheless when the Son of man cometh, shall he find faith on the earth?

Ειπε δε και προς τινας, τους θαρρουντας εις εαυτους οτι ειναι δικαιοι και καταφρονουντας τους λοιπους, την παραβολην ταυτην

And he spake this parable unto certain which trusted in themselves that they were righteous, and despised others:

Ανθρωποι δυο ανεβησαν εις το ιερον δια να προσευχηθωσιν, ο εις Φαρισαιος και ο αλλος τελωνης.

Two men went up into the temple to pray; the one a Pharisee, and the other a publican.

Ο Φαρισαιος σταθεις προσηυχετο καθ εαυτον ταυτα Ευχαριστω σοι, Θεε, οτι δεν ειμαι καθως οι λοιποι ανθρωποι, αρπαγες, αδικοι, μοιχοι, η και καθως ουτος ο τελωνης

The Pharisee stood and prayed thus with himself, God, I thank thee, that I am not as other men are, extortioners, unjust, adulterers, or even as this publican.

νηστευω δις της εβδομαδος, αποδεκατιζω παντα οσα εχω.

I fast twice in the week, I give tithes of all that I possess.

Και ο τελωνης μακροθεν ισταμενος, δεν ηθελεν ουδε τους οφθαλμους να υψωση εις τον ουρανον, αλλ ετυπτεν εις το στηθος αυτου, λεγων Ο Θεος, ιλασθητι μοι τω αμαρτωλω.

And the publican, standing afar off, would not lift up so much as his eyes unto heaven, but smote upon his breast, saying, God be merciful to me a sinner.

Σας λεγω, Κατεβη ουτος εις τον οικον αυτου δεδικαιωμενος μαλλον παρα εκεινος διοτι πας ο υψων εαυτον θελει ταπεινωθη, ο δε ταπεινων εαυτον θελει υψωθη.

I tell you, this man went down to his house justified rather than the other: for every one that exalteth himself shall be abased; and he that humbleth himself shall be exalted.

Εφερον δε προς αυτον και τα βρεφη, δια να εγγιζη αυτα ιδοντες δε οι μαθηται, επεπληξαν αυτους.

And they brought unto him also infants, that he would touch them: but when his disciples saw it, they rebuked them.

Ο Ιησους ομως προσκαλεσας αυτα, ειπεν Αφησατε τα παιδια να ερχωνται προς εμε, και μη εμποδιζετε αυτα διοτι των τοιουτων ειναι η βασιλεια του Θεου.

But Jesus called them unto him, and said, Suffer little children to come unto me, and forbid them not: for of such is the kingdom of God.

Αληθως σας λεγω, Οστις δεν δεχθη την βασιλειαν του Θεου ως παιδιον, δεν θελει εισελθει εις αυτην.

Verily I say unto you, Whosoever shall not receive the kingdom of God as a little child shall in no wise enter therein.

Και αρχων τις ηρωτησεν αυτον λεγων Διδασκαλε αγαθε, τι να πραξω δια να κληρονομησω ζωην αιωνιον;

And a certain ruler asked him, saying, Good Master, what shall I do to inherit eternal life?

Και ο Ιησους ειπε προς αυτον Τι με λεγεις αγαθον; ουδεις αγαθος ειμη εις ο Θεος.

And Jesus said unto him, Why callest thou me good? none is good, save one, that is, God.

Τας εντολας εξευρεις Μη μοιχευσης, Μη φονευσης, Μη κλεψης, Μη ψευδομαρτυρησης, Τιμα τον πατερα σου και την μητερα σου.

Thou knowest the commandments, Do not commit adultery, Do not kill, Do not steal, Do not bear false witness, Honour thy father and thy mother.

Ο δε ειπε Ταυτα παντα εφυλαξα εκ νεοτητος μου.

And he said, All these have I kept from my youth up.

Ακουσας δε ταυτα ο Ιησους, ειπε προς αυτον Ετι εν σοι λειπει παντα οσα εχεις πωλησον και διαμοιρασον εις πτωχους, και θελεις εχει θησαυρον εν ουρανω, και ελθε, ακολουθει μοι.

Now when Jesus heard these things, he said unto him, Yet lackest thou one thing: sell all that thou hast, and distribute unto the poor, and thou shalt have treasure in heaven: and come, follow me.

Ο δε ακουσας ταυτα εγεινε περιλυπος διοτι ητο πλουσιος σφοδρα.

And when he heard this, he was very sorrowful: for he was very rich.

Ιδων δε αυτον ο Ιησους περιλυπον γενομενον, ειπε Πως δυσκολως θελουσιν εισελθει εις την βασιλειαν του Θεου οι εχοντες τα χρηματα

And when Jesus saw that he was very sorrowful, he said, How hardly shall they that have riches enter into the kingdom of God!

διοτι ευκολωτερον ειναι να περαση καμηλος δια τρυπης βελονης, παρα πλουσιος να εισελθη εις την βασιλειαν του Θεου.

For it is easier for a camel to go through a needle's eye, than for a rich man to enter into the kingdom of God.

Ειπον δε οι ακουσαντες Και τις δυναται να σωθη;

And they that heard it said, Who then can be saved?

Ο δε ειπε Τα αδυνατα παρα ανθρωποις ειναι δυνατα παρα τω Θεω.

And he said, The things which are impossible with men are possible with God.

Ειπε δε ο Πετρος Ιδου, ημεις αφηκαμεν παντα και σε ηκολουθησαμεν.

Then Peter said, Lo, we have left all, and followed thee.

Ο δε ειπε προς αυτους Αληθως σας λεγω οτι δεν ειναι ουδεις, οστις αφηκεν οικιαν η γονεις η αδελφους η γυναικα η τεκνα ενεκεν της βασιλειας του Θεου,

And he said unto them, Verily I say unto you, There is no man that hath left house, or parents, or brethren, or wife, or children, for the kingdom of God's sake,

οστις δεν θελει απολαυσει πολλαπλασια εν τω καιρω τουτω και εν τω ερχομενω αιωνι ζωην αιωνιον.

Who shall not receive manifold more in this present time, and in the world to come life everlasting.

Παραλαβων δε τους δωδεκα, ειπε προς αυτους Ιδου, αναβαινομεν εις Ιεροσολυμα, και θελουσιν εκτελεσθη παντα τα γεγραμμενα δια των προφητων εις τον Υιον του ανθρωπου.

Then he took unto him the twelve, and said unto them, Behold, we go up to Jerusalem, and all things that are written by the prophets concerning the Son of man shall be accomplished.

Διοτι θελει παραδοθη εις τα εθνη και θελει εμπαιχθη και υβρισθη και εμπτυσθη,

For he shall be delivered unto the Gentiles, and shall be mocked, and spitefully entreated, and spitted on:

και μαστιγωσαντες θελουσι θανατωσει αυτον, και τη τριτη ημερα θελει αναστηθη.

And they shall scourge him, and put him to death: and the third day he shall rise again.

Και αυτοι δεν ενοησαν ουδεν εκ τουτων, και ητο ο λογος ουτος κεκρυμμενος απ αυτων, και δεν ενοουν τα λεγομενα.

And they understood none of these things: and this saying was hid from them, neither knew they the things which were spoken.

Οτε δε επλησιαζεν εις την Ιεριχω, τυφλος τις εκαθητο παρα την οδον ζητων

And it came to pass, that as he was come nigh unto Jericho, a certain blind man sat by the way side begging:

ακουσας δε οχλον διαβαινοντα, ηρωτα τι ειναι τουτο.

And hearing the multitude pass by, he asked what it meant.

Απηγγειλαν δε προς αυτον οτι Ιησους ο Ναζωραιος διαβαινει.

And they told him, that Jesus of Nazareth passeth by.

Και εφωναξε λεγων Ιησου, υιε του Δαβιδ, ελεησον με.

And he cried, saying, Jesus, thou Son of David, have mercy on me.

Και οι προπορευομενοι επεπληττον αυτον δια να σιωπηση αλλ αυτος πολλω μαλλον εκραζεν Υιε του Δαβιδ, ελεησον με.

And they which went before rebuked him, that he should hold his peace: but he cried so much the more, Thou Son of David, have mercy on me.

Σταθεις δε ο Ιησους, προσεταξε να φερθη προς αυτον. Και αφου επλησιασεν, ηρωτησεν αυτον

And Jesus stood, and commanded him to be brought unto him: and when he was come near, he asked him,

λεγων Τι θελεις να σοι καμω; Ο δε ειπε Κυριε, να αναβλεψω.

Saying, What wilt thou that I shall do unto thee? And he said, Lord, that I may receive my sight.

Και ο Ιησους ειπε προς αυτον Αναβλεψον η πιστις σου σε εσωσε.

And Jesus said unto him, Receive thy sight: thy faith hath saved thee.

Και παρευθυς ανεβλεψε και ηκολουθει αυτον δοξαζων τον Θεον και πας ο λαος ιδων ηνεσε τον Θεον.

And immediately he received his sight, and followed him, glorifying God: and all the people, when they saw it, gave praise unto God.
