P5. On the Way to Jerusalem 5 (Parables: Prodigal Son etc.)

↑ Lk 5 29–30 και εποιησεν δοχην μεγαλην λευις αυτω εν τη οικια αυτου και ην οχλος πολυς τελωνων και αλλων οι ησαν μετ αυτων κατακειμενοι

And Levi made him a great feast in his own house: and there was a great company of publicans and of others that sat down with them.

30 και εγογγυζον οι φαρισαιοι και οι γραμματεις αυτων προς τους μαθητας αυτου λεγοντες δια τι μετα των τελωνων και αμαρτωλων εσθιετε και πινετε

But their scribes and Pharisees murmured against his disciples, saying, Why do ye eat and drink with publicans and sinners? ↓ 

↑ Lk 15 1–2 ησαν δε αυτω εγγιζοντες παντες οι τελωναι και οι αμαρτωλοι ακουειν αυτου

Then drew near unto him all the publicans and sinners for to hear him.

2 και διεγογγυζον οι τε φαρισαιοι και οι γραμματεις λεγοντες οτι ουτος αμαρτωλους προσδεχεται και συνεσθιει αυτοις

And the Pharisees and scribes murmured, saying, This man receiveth sinners, and eateth with them. ↓ 

↑ Lk 15 3–7 ειπεν δε προς αυτους την παραβολην ταυτην λεγων

And he spake this parable unto them, saying,

4 τις ανθρωπος εξ υμων εχων εκατον προβατα και απολεσας εξ αυτων εν ου καταλειπει τα ενενηκοντα εννεα εν τη ερημω και πορευεται επι το απολωλος εως ευρη αυτο

What man of you, having an hundred sheep, if he lose one of them, doth not leave the ninety and nine in the wilderness, and go after that which is lost, until he find it?

5 και ευρων επιτιθησιν επι τους ωμους αυτου χαιρων

And when he hath found it, he layeth it on his shoulders, rejoicing.

6 και ελθων εις τον οικον συγκαλει τους φιλους και τους γειτονας λεγων αυτοις συγχαρητε μοι οτι ευρον το προβατον μου το απολωλος

And when he cometh home, he calleth together his friends and neighbours, saying unto them, Rejoice with me; for I have found my sheep which was lost.

7 λεγω υμιν οτι ουτως χαρα εν τω ουρανω εσται επι ενι αμαρτωλω μετανοουντι η επι ενενηκοντα εννεα δικαιοις οιτινες ου χρειαν εχουσιν μετανοιας

I say unto you, that likewise joy shall be in heaven over one sinner that repenteth, more than over ninety and nine just persons, which need no repentance. ↓ 

↑ Lk 15 8–9 η τις γυνη δραχμας εχουσα δεκα εαν απολεση δραχμην μιαν ουχι απτει λυχνον και σαροι την οικιαν και ζητει επιμελως εως ου ευρη

Either what woman having ten pieces of silver, if she lose one piece, doth not light a candle, and sweep the house, and seek diligently till she find it?

9 και ευρουσα συγκαλει τας φιλας και γειτονας λεγουσα συγχαρητε μοι οτι ευρον την δραχμην ην απωλεσα

And when she hath found it, she calleth her friends and her neighbours together, saying, Rejoice with me; for I have found the piece which I had lost. ↓ 

↑ Lk 15 10 ουτως λεγω υμιν γινεται χαρα ενωπιον των αγγελων του θεου επι ενι αμαρτωλω μετανοουντι

Likewise, I say unto you, there is joy in the presence of the angels of God over one sinner that repenteth. ↓ 

↑ Lk 15 11–13 ειπεν δε ανθρωπος τις ειχεν δυο υιους

And he said, A certain man had two sons:

12 και ειπεν ο νεωτερος αυτων τω πατρι πατερ δος μοι το επιβαλλον μερος της ουσιας ο δε διειλεν αυτοις τον βιον

And the younger of them said to his father, Father, give me the portion of goods that falleth to me. And he divided unto them his living.

13 και μετ ου πολλας ημερας συναγαγων παντα ο νεωτερος υιος απεδημησεν εις χωραν μακραν και εκει διεσκορπισεν την ουσιαν αυτου ζων ασωτως

And not many days after the younger son gathered all together, and took his journey into a far country, and there wasted his substance with riotous living. ↓ 

↑ Lk 15 14–16 δαπανησαντος δε αυτου παντα εγενετο λιμος ισχυρα κατα την χωραν εκεινην και αυτος ηρξατο υστερεισθαι

And when he had spent all, there arose a mighty famine in that land; and he began to be in want.

15 και πορευθεις εκολληθη ενι των πολιτων της χωρας εκεινης και επεμψεν αυτον εις τους αγρους αυτου βοσκειν χοιρους

And he went and joined himself to a citizen of that country; and he sent him into his fields to feed swine.

16 και επεθυμει χορτασθηναι εκ των κερατιων ων ησθιον οι χοιροι και ουδεις εδιδου αυτω

And he would fain have filled his belly with the husks that the swine did eat: and no man gave unto him. ↓ 

↑ Lk 15 17–19 εις εαυτον δε ελθων εφη ποσοι μισθιοι του πατρος μου περισσευονται αρτων εγω δε λιμω ωδε απολλυμαι

And when he came to himself, he said, How many hired servants of my father's have bread enough and to spare, and I perish with hunger!

18 αναστας πορευσομαι προς τον πατερα μου και ερω αυτω πατερ ημαρτον εις τον ουρανον και ενωπιον σου

I will arise and go to my father, and will say unto him, Father, I have sinned against heaven, and before thee,

19 ουκετι ειμι αξιος κληθηναι υιος σου ποιησον με ως ενα των μισθιων σου

And am no more worthy to be called thy son: make me as one of thy hired servants. ↓ 

↑ Lk 15 20–24 και αναστας ηλθεν προς τον πατερα εαυτου ετι δε αυτου μακραν απεχοντος ειδεν αυτον ο πατηρ αυτου και εσπλαγχνισθη και δραμων επεπεσεν επι τον τραχηλον αυτου και κατεφιλησεν αυτον

And he arose, and came to his father. But when he was yet a great way off, his father saw him, and had compassion, and ran, and fell on his neck, and kissed him.

21 ειπεν δε ο υιος αυτω πατερ ημαρτον εις τον ουρανον και ενωπιον σου ουκετι ειμι αξιος κληθηναι υιος σου

And the son said unto him, Father, I have sinned against heaven, and in thy sight, and am no more worthy to be called thy son.

22 ειπεν δε ο πατηρ προς τους δουλους αυτου ταχυ εξενεγκατε στολην την πρωτην και ενδυσατε αυτον και δοτε δακτυλιον εις την χειρα αυτου και υποδηματα εις τους ποδας

But the father said to his servants, Bring forth the best robe, and put it on him; and put a ring on his hand, and shoes on his feet:

23 και φερετε τον μοσχον τον σιτευτον θυσατε και φαγοντες ευφρανθωμεν

And bring hither the fatted calf, and kill it; and let us eat, and be merry:

24 οτι ουτος ο υιος μου νεκρος ην και ανεζησεν ην απολωλως και ευρεθη και ηρξαντο ευφραινεσθαι

For this my son was dead, and is alive again; he was lost, and is found. And they began to be merry. ↓ 

↑ Lk 15 25–28 ην δε ο υιος αυτου ο πρεσβυτερος εν αγρω και ως ερχομενος ηγγισεν τη οικια ηκουσεν συμφωνιας και χορων

Now his elder son was in the field: and as he came and drew nigh to the house, he heard musick and dancing.

26 και προσκαλεσαμενος ενα των παιδων επυνθανετο τι αν ειη ταυτα

And he called one of the servants, and asked what these things meant.

27 ο δε ειπεν αυτω οτι ο αδελφος σου ηκει και εθυσεν ο πατηρ σου τον μοσχον τον σιτευτον οτι υγιαινοντα αυτον απελαβεν

And he said unto him, Thy brother is come; and thy father hath killed the fatted calf, because he hath received him safe and sound.

28 ωργισθη δε και ουκ ηθελεν εισελθειν ο δε πατηρ αυτου εξελθων παρεκαλει αυτον

And he was angry, and would not go in: therefore came his father out, and intreated him. ↓ 

↑ Lk 15 29–32 ο δε αποκριθεις ειπεν τω πατρι αυτου ιδου τοσαυτα ετη δουλευω σοι και ουδεποτε εντολην σου παρηλθον και εμοι ουδεποτε εδωκας εριφον ινα μετα των φιλων μου ευφρανθω

And he answering said to his father, Lo, these many years do I serve thee, neither transgressed I at any time thy commandment: and yet thou never gavest me a kid, that I might make merry with my friends:

30 οτε δε ο υιος σου ουτος ο καταφαγων σου τον βιον μετα πορνων ηλθεν εθυσας αυτω τον σιτευτον μοσχον

But as soon as this thy son was come, which hath devoured thy living with harlots, thou hast killed for him the fatted calf.

31 ο δε ειπεν αυτω τεκνον συ παντοτε μετ εμου ει και παντα τα εμα σα εστιν

And he said unto him, Son, thou art ever with me, and all that I have is thine.

32 ευφρανθηναι δε και χαρηναι εδει οτι ο αδελφος σου ουτος νεκρος ην και εζησεν και απολωλως και ευρεθη

It was meet that we should make merry, and be glad: for this thy brother was dead, and is alive again; and was lost, and is found. ↓ 

↑ Lk 16 1–4 ελεγεν δε και προς τους μαθητας ανθρωπος τις ην πλουσιος ος ειχεν οικονομον και ουτος διεβληθη αυτω 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.

2 και φωνησας αυτον ειπεν αυτω τι τουτο ακουω περι σου αποδος τον λογον της οικονομιας σου ου γαρ δυνη ετι οικονομειν

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.

3 ειπεν δε εν εαυτω ο οικονομος τι ποιησω οτι ο κυριος μου αφαιρειται την οικονομιαν απ εμου σκαπτειν ουκ ισχυω επαιτειν αισχυνομαι

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.

4 εγνων τι ποιησω ινα οταν μετασταθω εκ της οικονομιας δεξωνται με εις τους οικους αυτων

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

↑ Lk 16 5–8 και προσκαλεσαμενος ενα εκαστον των χρεοφειλετων του κυριου εαυτου ελεγεν τω πρωτω ποσον οφειλεις τω κυριω 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?

6 ο δε ειπεν εκατον βατους ελαιου ο δε ειπεν αυτω δεξαι σου τα γραμματα και καθισας 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.

7 επειτα ετερω ειπεν συ δε ποσον οφειλεις ο δε ειπεν εκατον κορους σιτου λεγει αυτω δεξαι σου τα γραμματα 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.

8 και επηνεσεν ο κυριος τον οικονομον της αδικιας οτι φρονιμως εποιησεν οτι οι υιοι του αιωνος τουτου φρονιμωτεροι υπερ τους υιους του φωτος εις την γενεαν την εαυτων εισιν

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. ↓ 

↑ Lk 16 9–12 και εγω υμιν λεγω εαυτοις ποιησατε φιλους εκ του μαμωνα της αδικιας ινα οταν εκλιπη δεξωνται υμας εις τας αιωνιους σκηνας

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.

10 ο πιστος εν ελαχιστω και εν πολλω πιστος εστιν και ο εν ελαχιστω αδικος και εν πολλω αδικος εστιν

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.

11 ει ουν εν τω αδικω μαμωνα πιστοι ουκ εγενεσθε το αληθινον τις υμιν πιστευσει

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

12 και ει εν τω αλλοτριω πιστοι ουκ εγενεσθε το υμετερον τις υμιν δωσει

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

↑ Lk 16 13 ουδεις οικετης δυναται δυσιν κυριοις δουλευειν η γαρ τον ενα μισησει και τον ετερον αγαπησει η ενος ανθεξεται και του ετερου καταφρονησει ου δυνασθε θεω δουλευειν 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. ↓ 

↑ Lk 16 14–15 ηκουον δε ταυτα παντα οι φαρισαιοι φιλαργυροι υπαρχοντες και εξεμυκτηριζον αυτον

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

15 και ειπεν αυτοις υμεις εστε οι δικαιουντες εαυτους ενωπιον των ανθρωπων ο δε θεος γινωσκει τας καρδιας υμων οτι το εν ανθρωποις υψηλον βδελυγμα 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. ↓ 

↑ Lk 16 16 ο νομος και οι προφηται μεχρι ιωαννου απο τοτε η βασιλεια του θεου ευαγγελιζεται και πας εις αυτην βιαζεται

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

↑ Lk 16 17 ευκοπωτερον δε εστιν τον ουρανον και την γην παρελθειν η του νομου μιαν κεραιαν πεσειν

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

↑ Lk 16 18 πας ο απολυων την γυναικα αυτου και γαμων ετεραν μοιχευει και ο απολελυμενην απο ανδρος γαμων μοιχευει

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

↑ Lk 16 19–22 ανθρωπος δε τις ην πλουσιος και ενεδιδυσκετο πορφυραν και βυσσον ευφραινομενος καθ ημεραν λαμπρως

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

20 πτωχος δε τις ονοματι λαζαρος εβεβλητο προς τον πυλωνα αυτου ειλκωμενος

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

21 και επιθυμων χορτασθηναι απο των πιπτοντων απο της τραπεζης του πλουσιου αλλα και οι κυνες ερχομενοι επελειχον τα ελκη 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.

22 εγενετο δε αποθανειν τον πτωχον και απενεχθηναι αυτον υπο των αγγελων εις τον κολπον αβρααμ απεθανεν 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; ↓ 

↑ Lk 16 23–26 και εν τω αδη επαρας τους οφθαλμους αυτου υπαρχων εν βασανοις ορα αβρααμ απο μακροθεν και 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.

24 και αυτος φωνησας ειπεν πατερ αβρααμ ελεησον με και πεμψον λαζαρον ινα βαψη το ακρον του δακτυλου αυτου υδατος και καταψυξη την γλωσσαν μου οτι οδυνωμαι 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.

25 ειπεν δε αβρααμ τεκνον μνησθητι οτι απελαβες τα αγαθα σου εν τη ζωη σου και λαζαρος ομοιως τα κακα νυν δε ωδε παρακαλειται συ δε οδυνασαι

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.

26 και εν πασιν τουτοις μεταξυ ημων και υμων χασμα μεγα εστηρικται οπως οι θελοντες διαβηναι ενθεν προς υμας μη δυνωνται μηδε εκειθεν προς ημας διαπερωσιν

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. ↓ 

↑ Lk 16 27–31 ειπεν δε ερωτω σε ουν πατερ ινα 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:

28 εχω γαρ πεντε αδελφους οπως διαμαρτυρηται αυτοις ινα μη και αυτοι ελθωσιν 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.

29 λεγει δε αβρααμ εχουσιν μωυσεα και τους προφητας ακουσατωσαν αυτων

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

30 ο δε ειπεν ουχι πατερ αβρααμ αλλ εαν τις απο νεκρων πορευθη προς αυτους μετανοησουσιν

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

31 ειπεν δε αυτω ει μωυσεως και των προφητων ουκ ακουουσιν ουδ εαν τις εκ νεκρων αναστη πεισθησονται

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