Greek New Testament: Byzantine Text (Robinson–Pierpont 2018)
1“For the kingdom of heaven is like a landowner who went out early in the morning to hire workers for his vineyard.
1ομοια γαρ εστιν η βασιλεια των ουρανων ανθρωπω οικοδεσποτη οστισ εξηλθεν αμα πρωι μισθωσασθαι εργατασ εισ τον αμπελωνα αυτου
2He agreed to pay them a denarius for the day and sent them into his vineyard.
2και συμφωνησασ μετα των εργατων εκ δηναριου την ημεραν απεστειλεν αυτουσ εισ τον αμπελωνα αυτου
3About the third hour he went out and saw others standing in the marketplace doing nothing.
3και εξελθων περι τριτην ωραν ειδεν αλλουσ εστωτασ εν τη αγορα αργουσ
4‘You also go into my vineyard,’ he said, ‘and I will pay you whatever is right.’
4και εκεινοισ ειπεν υπαγετε και υμεισ εισ τον αμπελωνα και ο εαν η δικαιον δωσω υμιν
5So they went. He went out again about the sixth hour and the ninth hour and did the same thing.
5οι δε απηλθον παλιν εξελθων περι εκτην και ενατην ωραν εποιησεν ωσαυτωσ
6About the eleventh hour he went out and found still others standing around. ‘Why have you been standing here all day long doing nothing?’ he asked.
6περι δε την ενδεκατην ωραν εξελθων ευρεν αλλουσ εστωτασ αργουσ και λεγει αυτοισ τι ωδε εστηκατε ολην την ημεραν αργοι
7‘Because no one has hired us,’ they answered. So he told them, ‘You also go into my vineyard.’
7λεγουσιν αυτω οτι ουδεισ ημασ εμισθωσατο λεγει αυτοισ υπαγετε και υμεισ εισ τον αμπελωνα και ο εαν η δικαιον ληψεσθε
8When evening came, the owner of the vineyard said to his foreman, ‘Call the workers and pay them their wages, starting with the last ones hired and moving on to the first.’
8οψιασ δε γενομενησ λεγει ο κυριοσ του αμπελωνοσ τω επιτροπω αυτου καλεσον τουσ εργατασ και αποδοσ αυτοισ τον μισθον αρξαμενοσ απο των εσχατων εωσ των πρωτων
9The workers who were hired about the eleventh hour came and each received a denarius.
9και ελθοντεσ οι περι την ενδεκατην ωραν ελαβον ανα δηναριον
10So when the original workers came, they assumed they would receive more. But each of them also received a denarius.
10ελθοντεσ δε οι πρωτοι ενομισαν οτι πλειονα ληψονται και ελαβον και αυτοι ανα δηναριον
11On receiving their pay, they began to grumble against the landowner.
11λαβοντεσ δε εγογγυζον κατα του οικοδεσποτου
12‘These men who were hired last worked only one hour,’ they said, ‘and you have made them equal to us who have borne the burden and the scorching heat of the day.’
12λεγοντεσ οτι ουτοι οι εσχατοι μιαν ωραν εποιησαν και ισουσ ημιν αυτουσ εποιησασ τοισ βαστασασιν το βαροσ τησ ημερασ και τον καυσωνα
13But he answered one of them, ‘Friend, I am not being unfair to you. Did you not agree with me on one denarius?
13ο δε αποκριθεισ ειπεν ενι αυτων εταιρε ουκ αδικω σε ουχι δηναριου συνεφωνησασ μοι
14Take your pay and go. I want to give this last man the same as I gave you.
14αρον το σον και υπαγε θελω δε τουτω τω εσχατω δουναι ωσ και σοι
15Do I not have the right to do as I please with what is mine? Or are you envious because I am generous?’
15η ουκ εξεστιν μοι ποιησαι ο θελω εν τοισ εμοισ ει ο οφθαλμοσ σου πονηροσ εστιν οτι εγω αγαθοσ ειμι
16So the last will be first, and the first will be last.”
16ουτωσ εσονται οι εσχατοι πρωτοι και οι πρωτοι εσχατοι πολλοι γαρ εισιν κλητοι ολιγοι δε εκλεκτοι
17As Jesus was going up to Jerusalem, He took the twelve disciples aside and said,
17και αναβαινων ο ιησουσ εισ ιεροσολυμα παρελαβεν τουσ δωδεκα μαθητασ κατ ιδιαν εν τη οδω και ειπεν αυτοισ
18“Look, we are going up to Jerusalem, and the Son of Man will be delivered over to the chief priests and scribes. They will condemn Him to death
18ιδου αναβαινομεν εισ ιεροσολυμα και ο υιοσ του ανθρωπου παραδοθησεται τοισ αρχιερευσιν και γραμματευσιν και κατακρινουσιν αυτον θανατω
19and will deliver Him over to the Gentiles to be mocked and flogged and crucified. And on the third day He will be raised to life.”
19και παραδωσουσιν αυτον τοισ εθνεσιν εισ το εμπαιξαι και μαστιγωσαι και σταυρωσαι και τη τριτη ημερα αναστησεται
20Then the mother of Zebedee’s sons came to Jesus with her sons and knelt down to make a request of Him.
20τοτε προσηλθεν αυτω η μητηρ των υιων ζεβεδαιου μετα των υιων αυτησ προσκυνουσα και αιτουσα τι παρ αυτου
21“What do you want?” He inquired. She answered, “Declare that in Your kingdom one of these two sons of mine may sit at Your right hand, and the other at Your left.”
21ο δε ειπεν αυτη τι θελεισ λεγει αυτω ειπε ινα καθισωσιν ουτοι οι δυο υιοι μου εισ εκ δεξιων σου και εισ εξ ευωνυμων σου εν τη βασιλεια σου
22“You do not know what you are asking,” Jesus replied. “Can you drink the cup I am going to drink?” “We can,” the brothers answered.
22αποκριθεισ δε ο ιησουσ ειπεν ουκ οιδατε τι αιτεισθε δυνασθε πιειν το ποτηριον ο εγω μελλω πινειν η το βαπτισμα ο εγω βαπτιζομαι βαπτισθηναι λεγουσιν αυτω δυναμεθα
23“You will indeed drink My cup,” Jesus said. “But to sit at My right or left is not Mine to grant. These seats belong to those for whom My Father has prepared them.”
23και λεγει αυτοισ το μεν ποτηριον μου πιεσθε και το βαπτισμα ο εγω βαπτιζομαι βαπτισθησεσθε το δε καθισαι εκ δεξιων μου και εξ ευωνυμων μου ουκ εστιν εμον δουναι αλλ οισ ητοιμασται υπο του πατροσ μου
24When the ten heard about this, they were indignant with the two brothers.
24και ακουσαντεσ οι δεκα ηγανακτησαν περι των δυο αδελφων
25But Jesus called them aside and said, “You know that the rulers of the Gentiles lord it over them, and their superiors exercise authority over them.
25ο δε ιησουσ προσκαλεσαμενοσ αυτουσ ειπεν οιδατε οτι οι αρχοντεσ των εθνων κατακυριευουσιν αυτων και οι μεγαλοι κατεξουσιαζουσιν αυτων
26It shall not be this way among you. Instead, whoever wants to become great among you must be your servant,
26ουχ ουτωσ δε εσται εν υμιν αλλ οσ εαν θελη εν υμιν μεγασ γενεσθαι εσται υμων διακονοσ
27and whoever wants to be first among you must be your slave—
27και οσ εαν θελη εν υμιν ειναι πρωτοσ εστω υμων δουλοσ
28just as the Son of Man did not come to be served, but to serve, and to give His life as a ransom for many.”
28ωσπερ ο υιοσ του ανθρωπου ουκ ηλθεν διακονηθηναι αλλα διακονησαι και δουναι την ψυχην αυτου λυτρον αντι πολλων
29As they were leaving Jericho, a large crowd followed Him.
29και εκπορευομενων αυτων απο ιεριχω ηκολουθησεν αυτω οχλοσ πολυσ
30And there were two blind men sitting beside the road. When they heard that Jesus was passing by, they cried out, “Lord, Son of David, have mercy on us!”
30και ιδου δυο τυφλοι καθημενοι παρα την οδον ακουσαντεσ οτι ιησουσ παραγει εκραξαν λεγοντεσ ελεησον ημασ κυριε υιοσ δαυιδ
31The crowd admonished them to be silent, but they cried out all the louder, “Lord, Son of David, have mercy on us!”
31ο δε οχλοσ επετιμησεν αυτοισ ινα σιωπησωσιν οι δε μειζον εκραζον λεγοντεσ ελεησον ημασ κυριε υιοσ δαυιδ
32Jesus stopped and called them. “What do you want Me to do for you?” He asked.
32και στασ ο ιησουσ εφωνησεν αυτουσ και ειπεν τι θελετε ποιησω υμιν
33“Lord,” they answered, “let our eyes be opened.”
33λεγουσιν αυτω κυριε ινα ανοιχθωσιν ημων οι οφθαλμοι
34Moved with compassion, Jesus touched their eyes, and at once they received their sight and followed Him.
34σπλαγχνισθεισ δε ο ιησουσ ηψατο των οφθαλμων αυτων και ευθεωσ ανεβλεψαν αυτων οι οφθαλμοι και ηκολουθησαν αυτω
