Gospel of Matthew

 

CHAPTER 22
  1  και   αποκριθεις   ο   ιησους   παλιν   ειπεν   αυτοις   εν   παραβολαις   λεγων    
    And   answering   ♦   Jesus   again   spoke   to them   in   parables,   saying,    
  2  ωμοιωθη   η   βασιλεια   των   ουρανων   ανθρωπω   βασιλει   οστις  
    Has 6 become 7 like 8   the 1   kingdom 2   of 3 the 4   heavens 5   to a man   a king,   who  
εποιησεν   γαμους   τω   υιω   αυτου    
made   a wedding feast   for his son:   ♦   ♦    
  3  και   απεστειλεν   τους   δουλους   αυτου   καλεσαι   τους  
    and   sent   his bondmen   ♦   ♦   to call   those who  
κεκλημενους   εις   τους   γαμους   και   ουκ   ηθελον   ελθειν    
having been invited   to   the   wedding feast,   and   they would not   ♦   come.    
  4  παλιν   απεστειλεν   αλλους   δουλους   λεγων   ειπατε   τοις  
    Again   he sent   other   bondmen,   saying,   Say   to those who  
κεκλημενοις   ιδου   το   αριστον   μου   ητοιμασα   οι   ταυροι   μου  
having been invited,   Behold,   my dinner   ♦   ♦   I prepared,   my oxen   ♦   ♦  
και   τα   σιτιστα   τεθυμενα   και   παντα   ετοιμα   δευτε   εις   τους  
and   the   fatted beasts   are killed,   and   all things [are]   ready;   come   to   the  
γαμους    
wedding feast.    
  5  οι   δε   αμελησαντες   απηλθον   ο   μεν   εις   τον   ιδιον   αγρον  
    But they   ♦   being negligent of [it]   went away,   one   ♦   to   ♦   his own   field,  
ο   δε   εις   την   εμποριαν   αυτου    
and another   ♦   to   his commerce.   ♦   ♦    
  6  οι   δε   λοιποι   κρατησαντες   τους   δουλους   αυτου   υβρισαν   και  
    And the   ♦   rest,   having laid hold of   his bondmen,   ♦   ♦   insulted   and  
απεκτειναν    
killed [them].    
  7  ακουσας   δε   ο   βασιλευς   ωργισθη   και   πεμψας   τα   στρατευματα  
    And having heard [it]   ♦   the   king   was wroth,   and   having sent   ♦   his forces  
αυτου   απωλεσεν   τους   φονεις   εκεινους   και   την   πολιν   αυτων  
♦   he destroyed   those murderers,   ♦   ♦   and   ♦   their city   ♦  
ενεπρησεν    
he burnt.    
  8  τοτε   λεγει   τοις   δουλοις   αυτου   ο   μεν   γαμος   ετοιμος  
    Then   he says   to his bondmen,   ♦   ♦   The   indeed 3   wedding 1 feast 2   ready 5  
εστιν   οι   δε   κεκλημενοι   ουκ   ησαν   αξιοι    
is, 4   but those who   ♦   having been invited   were not   ♦   worthy;    
  9  πορευεσθε   ουν   επι   τας   διεξοδους   των   οδων   και   οσους  
    Go   therefore   into   the   thoroughfares   of the   highways,   and   as many as  
αν   ευρητε   καλεσατε   εις   τους   γαμους    
ye shall find,   ♦   invite   to   the   wedding feast.    
  10  και   εξελθοντες   οι   δουλοι   εκεινοι   εις   τας   οδους  
    And   having 3 gone 4 out 5   those 1 bondmen 2   ♦   ♦   into   the   highways  
συνηγαγον   παντας   οσους   ευρον   πονηρους   τε   και   αγαθους   και  
brought together   all   as many as   they found,   evil 2   both 1   and   good;   and  
επλησθη   ο   γαμος   ανακειμενων    
became 4 full 5   the 1   wedding 2 feast 3   of guests.    
  11  εισελθων   δε   ο   βασιλευς   θεασασθαι   τους   ανακειμενους   ειδεν   εκει
    And coming 3 in 4   ♦   the 1   king 2   to see   the   guests   beheld   there
  ανθρωπον   ουκ   ενδεδυμενον   ενδυμα   γαμου    
  a man   not   clothed   with a garment   of [the] wedding feast;    
  12  και   λεγει   αυτω   εταιρε   πως   εισηλθες   ωδε   μη   εχων   ενδυμα  
    and   he says   to him,   Friend,   how   didst thou enter   here   not   having   a garment  
γαμου   ο   δε   εφιμωθη    
of [the] wedding feast?   But he   ♦   was speechless.    
  13  τοτε   ειπεν   ο   βασιλευς   τοις   διακονοις   δησαντες   αυτου   ποδας   και  
    Then   said   the   king   to the   servants,   Having bound   him   feet   and  
χειρας   αρατε   αυτον   και   εκβαλετε   εις   το   σκοτος   το   εξωτερον   εκει  
hands   take away   him   and   cast out [him]   into   the   darkness   the   outer:   there  
εσται   ο   κλαυθμος   και   ο   βρυγμος   των   οδοντων    
shall be   the   weeping   and   the   gnashing   of the   teeth.    
  14  πολλοι   γαρ   εισιν   κλητοι   ολιγοι   δε   εκλεκτοι    
    For many   ♦   are   called,   but few   ♦   chosen.    
  15  τοτε   πορευθεντες   οι   φαρισαιοι   συμβουλιον   ελαβον   οπως   αυτον  
    Then   having gone   the   Pharisees   counsel 2   took 1   how   him  
παγιδευσωσιν   εν   λογω    
they might ensare   in   discourse.    
  16  και   αποστελλουσιν   αυτω   τους   μαθητας   αυτων   μετα   των  
    And   they send   to him   their disciples   ♦   ♦   with   the  
ηρωδιανων   λεγοντες   διδασκαλε   οιδαμεν   οτι   αληθης   ει   και   την  
Herodians,   saying,   Teacher,   we know   that   true   thou art,   and   the  
οδον   του   θεου   εν   αληθεια   διδασκεις   και   ου   μελει   σοι   περι   ουδενος  
way   ♦   of God   in   truth   teachest,   and   ♦   there is care   to thee   about   no one,  
ου   γαρ   βλεπεις   εις   προσωπον   ανθρωπων    
for not 3   ♦   thou 1 lookest 2   on [the]   appearance   of men;    
  17  ειπε   ουν   ημιν   τι   σοι   δοκει   εξεστιν   δουναι   κηνσον   καισαρι   η  
    tell   therefore   us,   what   thou 2   thinkest? 1   Is it lawful   to give   tribute   to Ceasar   or  
ου    
not?    
  18  γνους   δε   ο   ιησους   την   πονηριαν   αυτων   ειπεν   τι   με  
    But knowing 2   ♦   ♦   Jesus 1   their wickedness   ♦   ♦   said,   Why   me  
πειραζετε   υποκριται    
do ye tempt,   hypocrites?    
  19  επιδειξατε   μοι   το   νομισμα   του   κηνσου   οι   δε   προσηνεγκαν   αυτω  
    Shew   me   the   coin   of the   tribute.   And they   ♦   presented   to him  
δηναριον    
a denarius.    
  20  και   λεγει   αυτοις   τινος   η   εικων   αυτη   και   η   επιγραφη    
    And   he says   to them,   Whose [is]   this image   ♦   ♦   and   the   inscription?    
  21  λεγουσιν   αυτω   καισαρος   τοτε   λεγει   αυτοις   αποδοτε   ουν   τα  
    They say   to him,   Ceasar’s.   Then   he says   to them,   Render   then   the things  
καισαρος   καισαρι   και   τα   του   θεου   τω   θεω    
of Ceasar   to Ceasar,   and   the things   ♦   of God   ♦   to God.    
  22  και   ακουσαντες   εθαυμασαν   και   αφεντες   αυτον   απηλθον    
    And   having heard   they wondered;   and   leaving   him   went away.    
  23  εν   εκεινη   τη   ημερα   προσηλθον   αυτω   σαδδουκαιοι   οι   λεγοντες  
    On   that   ♦   day   came   to him   Sadducees,   who   say  
μη   ειναι   αναστασιν   και   επηρωτησαν   αυτον    
there is not   ♦   a resurrection,   and   they questioned   him,    
  24  λεγοντες   διδασκαλε   μωσης   ειπεν   εαν   τις   αποθανη   μη   εχων   τεκνα  
    saying,   Teacher,   Moses   said,   If   any one   should die   not   having   children,  
επιγαμβρευσει   ο   αδελφος   αυτου   την   γυναικα   αυτου   και  
shall 3 marry 4   his 1 brother 2   ♦   ♦   ♦   wife 6   his, 5   and  
αναστησει   σπερμα   τω   αδελφω   αυτου    
shall raise up   seed   to his brother.   ♦   ♦    
  25  ησαν   δε   παρ   ημιν   επτα   αδελφοι   και   ο   πρωτος   γαμησας  
    Now there were   ♦   with   us   seven   brothers;   and   the   first   having married  
ετελευτησεν   και   μη   εχων   σπερμα   αφηκεν   την   γυναικα   αυτου  
died,   and   not   having   seed   left   his wife   ♦   ♦  
τω   αδελφω   αυτου    
to his brother.   ♦   ♦    
  26  ομοιως   και   ο   δευτερος   και   ο   τριτος   εως   των   επτα    
    In like manner   also   the   second,   also   the   third,   unto   the   seven.    
  27  υστερον   δε   παντων   απεθανεν   και   η   γυνη    
    And last   ♦   of all   died   also   the   woman.    
  28  εν   τη   ουν   αναστασει   τινος   των   επτα   εσται   γυνη   παντες   γαρ  
    In 2   the 3   therefore 1   resurrection   of which   of the   seven   shall she be   wife?   for all   ♦  
εσχον   αυτην    
had   her.    
  29  αποκριθεις   δε   ο   ιησους   ειπεν   αυτοις   πλανασθε   μη   ειδοτες   τας   γραφας
    And answering   ♦   ♦   Jesus   said   to them,   Ye err,   not   knowing   the   scriptures,
  μηδε   την   δυναμιν   του   θεου    
  nor   the   power   ♦   of God.    
  30  εν   γαρ   τη   αναστασει   ουτε   γαμουσιν   ουτε   εκγαμιζονται   αλλ   ως  
    For in   ♦   the   resurrection   neither   do they marry   nor   are given in marriage,   but   as  
αγγελοι   του   θεου   εν   ουρανω   εισιν    
angels   ♦   of God   in   heaven   they are.    
  31  περι   δε   της   αναστασεως   των   νεκρων   ουκ   ανεγνωτε  
    But concerning   ♦   the   resurrection   of the   dead,   have ye not read   ♦  
το   ρηθεν   υμιν   υπο   του   θεου   λεγοντος    
that which   was spoken   to you   by   ♦   God,   saying,    
  32  εγω   ειμι   ο   θεος   αβρααμ   και   ο   θεος   ισαακ   και   ο   θεος   ιακωβ   ουκ  
    I   am   the   God   of Abraham   and   the   God   of Isaac   and   the   God   of Jacob?   Not 3  
εστιν   ο   θεος   θεος   νεκρων   αλλα   ζωντων    
is 2   ♦   God 1   God   of [the] dead,   but   of [the] living.    
  33  και   ακουσαντες   οι   οχλοι   εξεπλησσοντο   επι   τη   διδαχη   αυτου    
    And   having heard,   the   crowds   were astonished   at   his teaching.   ♦   ♦    
  34  οι   δε   φαρισαιοι   ακουσαντες   οτι   εφιμωσεν   τους   σαδδουκαιους  
    But the   ♦   Pharisees,   having heard   that   he had silenced   the   Sadducees,  
συνηχθησαν   επι   το   αυτο    
were gathered   together,   ♦   ♦    
  35  και   επηρωτησεν   εις   εξ   αυτων   νομικος   πειραζων   αυτον  
    and   questioned 9 [him] 10   one 1   of 2   them 3   a 4 doctor 5 of 6 the 7 law, 8   tempting   him,  
και   λεγων    
and   saying,    
  36  διδασκαλε   ποια   εντολη   μεγαλη   εν   τω   νομω    
    Teacher,   which   commandment 4   [is 1 the] 2 greatest 3   in   the   law?    
  37  ο   δε   ιησους   ειπεν   αυτω   αγαπησεις   κυριον   τον   θεον   σου  
    And Jesus   ♦   ♦   said   to him,   Thou shalt love [the]   Lord   ♦   God 2   thy 1  
εν   ολη   τη   καρδια   σου   και   εν   ολη   τη   ψυχη   σου   και   εν   ολη  
with   all   thy heart,   ♦   ♦   and   with   all   thy soul,   ♦   ♦   and   with   all  
τη   διανοια   σου    
thy mind.   ♦   ♦    
  38  αυτη   εστιν   πρωτη   και   μεγαλη   εντολη    
    This   is   [the] first   and   great   commandment.    
  39  δευτερα   δε   ομοια   αυτη   αγαπησεις   τον   πλησιον   σου   ως  
    And [the] second [is]   ♦   like   it,   Thou shalt love   ♦   thy neighbour   ♦   as  
σεαυτον    
thyself.    
  40  εν   ταυταις   ταις   δυσιν   εντολαις   ολος   ο   νομος   και   οι   προφηται  
    On   these   ♦   two   commandments   all   the   law   and   the   prophets  
κρεμανται    
hang.    
  41  συνηγμενων   δε   των   φαρισαιων   επηρωτησεν   αυτους
    But having 3 been 4 assembled 5 together 6   ♦   the 1   Pharisees 2   questioned 8   them 9
  ο   ιησους    
  ♦   Jesus, 7    
  42  λεγων   τι   υμιν   δοκει   περι   του   χριστου   τινος   υιος   εστιν  
    saying,   What   ye 2   think 1   concerning   the   Christ?   of whom   son 3   is 1 he? 2  
λεγουσιν   αυτω   του   δαβιδ    
They say   to him,   Of David.   ♦    
  43  λεγει   αυτοις   πως   ουν   δαβιδ   εν   πνευματι   κυριον   αυτον   καλει  
    He says   to them,   How   then   David 2   in 3   spirit 4   Lord 7   him 6   does 1 call 5  
λεγων    
saying,    
  44  ειπεν   ο   κυριος   τω   κυριω   μου   καθου   εκ   δεξιων   μου   εως   αν  
    Said 3   the 1   Lord 2   to my Lord,   ♦   ♦   Sit   on   my right hand   ♦   until   ♦  
θω   τους   εχθρους   σου   υποποδιον   των   ποδων   σου    
I place   thine enemies   ♦   ♦   [as] a footstool   for thy feet.   ♦   ♦    
  45  ει   ουν   δαβιδ   καλει   αυτον   κυριον   πως   υιος   αυτου   εστιν    
    If   therefore   David   calls   him   Lord,   how   his son   his   is he?    
  46  και   ουδεις   εδυνατο   αυτω   αποκριθηναι   λογον   ουδε   ετολμησεν   τις  
    And   no one   was able   him   to answer   a word   nor   dared   anyone  
απ   εκεινης   της   ημερας   επερωτησαι   αυτον   ουκετι    
from   that   ♦   day   to question   him   any more (lit. no more).
