Greek New Testament: Byzantine Text (Robinson–Pierpont 2018)
1Once again Jesus began to teach beside the sea, and such a large crowd gathered around Him that He got into a boat and sat in it, while all the people crowded along the shore.
1και παλιν ηρξατο διδασκειν παρα την θαλασσαν και συνηχθη προσ αυτον οχλοσ πολυσ ωστε αυτον εμβαντα εισ το πλοιον καθησθαι εν τη θαλασση και πασ ο οχλοσ προσ την θαλασσαν επι τησ γησ ην
2And He taught them many things in parables, and in His teaching He said,
2και εδιδασκεν αυτουσ εν παραβολαισ πολλα και ελεγεν αυτοισ εν τη διδαχη αυτου
3“Listen! A farmer went out to sow his seed.
3ακουετε ιδου εξηλθεν ο σπειρων του σπειραι
4And as he was sowing, some seed fell along the path, and the birds came and devoured it.
4και εγενετο εν τω σπειρειν ο μεν επεσεν παρα την οδον και ηλθεν τα πετεινα και κατεφαγεν αυτο
5Some fell on rocky ground, where it did not have much soil. It sprang up quickly because the soil was shallow.
5αλλο δε επεσεν επι το πετρωδεσ οπου ουκ ειχεν γην πολλην και ευθεωσ εξανετειλεν δια το μη εχειν βαθοσ γησ
6But when the sun rose, the seedlings were scorched, and they withered because they had no root.
6ηλιου δε ανατειλαντοσ εκαυματισθη και δια το μη εχειν ριζαν εξηρανθη
7Other seed fell among thorns, which grew up and choked the seedlings, and they yielded no crop.
7και αλλο επεσεν εισ τασ ακανθασ και ανεβησαν αι ακανθαι και συνεπνιξαν αυτο και καρπον ουκ εδωκεν
8Still other seed fell on good soil, where it sprouted, grew up, and produced a crop—one bearing thirtyfold, another sixtyfold, and another a hundredfold.”
8και αλλο επεσεν εισ την γην την καλην και εδιδου καρπον αναβαινοντα και αυξανοντα και εφερεν εν τριακοντα και εν εξηκοντα και εν εκατον
9Then Jesus said, “He who has ears to hear, let him hear.”
9και ελεγεν ο εχων ωτα ακουειν ακουετω
10As soon as Jesus was alone with the Twelve and those around Him, they asked Him about the parable.
10οτε δε εγενετο καταμονασ ηρωτησαν αυτον οι περι αυτον συν τοισ δωδεκα την παραβολην
11He replied, “The mystery of the kingdom of God has been given to you, but to those on the outside everything is expressed in parables,
11και ελεγεν αυτοισ υμιν δεδοται γνωναι το μυστηριον τησ βασιλειασ του θεου εκεινοισ δε τοισ εξω εν παραβολαισ τα παντα γινεται
12so that, ‘they may be ever seeing but never perceiving, and ever hearing but never understanding; otherwise they might turn and be forgiven.’”
12ινα βλεποντεσ βλεπωσιν και μη ιδωσιν και ακουοντεσ ακουωσιν και μη συνιωσιν μηποτε επιστρεψωσιν και αφεθη αυτοισ τα αμαρτηματα
13Then Jesus said to them, “Do you not understand this parable? Then how will you understand any of the parables?
13και λεγει αυτοισ ουκ οιδατε την παραβολην ταυτην και πωσ πασασ τασ παραβολασ γνωσεσθε
14The farmer sows the word.
14ο σπειρων τον λογον σπειρει
15Some are like the seeds along the path, where the word is sown. As soon as they hear it, Satan comes and takes away the word that was sown in them.
15ουτοι δε εισιν οι παρα την οδον οπου σπειρεται ο λογοσ και οταν ακουσωσιν ευθεωσ ερχεται ο σατανασ και αιρει τον λογον τον εσπαρμενον εν ταισ καρδιαισ αυτων
16Some are like the seeds sown on rocky ground. They hear the word and at once receive it with joy.
16και ουτοι εισιν ομοιωσ οι επι τα πετρωδη σπειρομενοι οι οταν ακουσωσιν τον λογον ευθεωσ μετα χαρασ λαμβανουσιν αυτον
17But they themselves have no root, and they remain for only a season. When trouble or persecution comes because of the word, they quickly fall away.
17και ουκ εχουσιν ριζαν εν εαυτοισ αλλα προσκαιροι εισιν ειτα γενομενησ θλιψεωσ η διωγμου δια τον λογον ευθεωσ σκανδαλιζονται
18Others are like the seeds sown among the thorns. They hear the word,
18και ουτοι εισιν οι εισ τασ ακανθασ σπειρομενοι οι τον λογον ακουοντεσ
19but the worries of this life, the deceitfulness of wealth, and the desire for other things come in and choke the word, and it becomes unfruitful.
19και αι μεριμναι του αιωνοσ τουτου και η απατη του πλουτου και αι περι τα λοιπα επιθυμιαι εισπορευομεναι συμπνιγουσιν τον λογον και ακαρποσ γινεται
20Still others are like the seeds sown on good soil. They hear the word, receive it, and produce a crop—thirtyfold, sixtyfold, or a hundredfold.”
20και ουτοι εισιν οι επι την γην την καλην σπαρεντεσ οιτινεσ ακουουσιν τον λογον και παραδεχονται και καρποφορουσιν εν τριακοντα και εν εξηκοντα και εν εκατον
21Jesus also said to them, “Does anyone bring in a lamp to put it under a basket or under a bed? Doesn’t he set it on a stand?
21και ελεγεν αυτοισ μητι ο λυχνοσ ερχεται ινα υπο τον μοδιον τεθη η υπο την κλινην ουχ ινα επι την λυχνιαν επιτεθη
22For there is nothing hidden that will not be disclosed, and nothing concealed that will not be brought to light.
22ου γαρ εστιν τι κρυπτον ο εαν μη φανερωθη ουδε εγενετο αποκρυφον αλλ ινα εισ φανερον ελθη
23If anyone has ears to hear, let him hear.”
23ει τισ εχει ωτα ακουειν ακουετω
24He went on to say, “Pay attention to what you hear. With the measure you use, it will be measured to you, and even more will be added to you.
24και ελεγεν αυτοισ βλεπετε τι ακουετε εν ω μετρω μετρειτε μετρηθησεται υμιν και προστεθησεται υμιν τοισ ακουουσιν
25For whoever has will be given more. But whoever does not have, even what he has will be taken away from him.”
25οσ γαρ αν εχη δοθησεται αυτω και οσ ουκ εχει και ο εχει αρθησεται απ αυτου
26Jesus also said, “The kingdom of God is like a man who scatters seed on the ground.
26και ελεγεν ουτωσ εστιν η βασιλεια του θεου ωσ εαν ανθρωποσ βαλη τον σπορον επι τησ γησ
27Night and day he sleeps and wakes, and the seed sprouts and grows, though he knows not how.
27και καθευδη και εγειρηται νυκτα και ημεραν και ο σποροσ βλαστανη και μηκυνηται ωσ ουκ οιδεν αυτοσ
28All by itself the earth produces a crop—first the stalk, then the head, then grain that ripens within.
28αυτοματη γαρ η γη καρποφορει πρωτον χορτον ειτα σταχυν ειτα πληρη σιτον εν τω σταχυι
29And as soon as the grain is ripe, he swings the sickle, because the harvest has come.”
29οταν δε παραδω ο καρποσ ευθεωσ αποστελλει το δρεπανον οτι παρεστηκεν ο θερισμοσ
30Then He asked, “To what can we compare the kingdom of God? With what parable shall we present it?
30και ελεγεν τινι ομοιωσωμεν την βασιλειαν του θεου η εν ποια παραβολη παραβαλωμεν αυτην
31It is like a mustard seed, which is the smallest of all seeds sown upon the earth.
31ωσ κοκκον σιναπεωσ οσ οταν σπαρη επι τησ γησ μικροτεροσ παντων των σπερματων εστιν των επι τησ γησ
32But after it is planted, it grows to be the largest of all garden plants and puts forth great branches, so that the birds of the air nest in its shade.”
32και οταν σπαρη αναβαινει και γινεται παντων των λαχανων μειζων και ποιει κλαδουσ μεγαλουσ ωστε δυνασθαι υπο την σκιαν αυτου τα πετεινα του ουρανου κατασκηνουν
33With many such parables Jesus spoke the word to them, to the extent that they could understand.
33και τοιαυταισ παραβολαισ πολλαισ ελαλει αυτοισ τον λογον καθωσ εδυναντο ακουειν
34He did not tell them anything without using a parable. But privately He explained everything to His own disciples.
34χωρισ δε παραβολησ ουκ ελαλει αυτοισ κατ ιδιαν δε τοισ μαθηταισ αυτου επελυεν παντα
35When that evening came, He said to His disciples, “Let us cross to the other side.”
35και λεγει αυτοισ εν εκεινη τη ημερα οψιασ γενομενησ διελθωμεν εισ το περαν
36After they had dismissed the crowd, they took Jesus with them, since He was already in the boat. And there were other boats with Him.
36και αφεντεσ τον οχλον παραλαμβανουσιν αυτον ωσ ην εν τω πλοιω και αλλα δε πλοιαρια ην μετ αυτου
37Soon a violent windstorm came up, and the waves were breaking over the boat, so that it was being swamped.
37και γινεται λαιλαψ ανεμου μεγαλη τα δε κυματα επεβαλλεν εισ το πλοιον ωστε αυτο ηδη γεμιζεσθαι
38But Jesus was in the stern, sleeping on the cushion. So they woke Him and said, “Teacher, don’t You care that we are perishing?”
38και ην αυτοσ επι τη πρυμνη επι το προσκεφαλαιον καθευδων και διεγειρουσιν αυτον και λεγουσιν αυτω διδασκαλε ου μελει σοι οτι απολλυμεθα
39Then Jesus got up and rebuked the wind and the sea. “Silence!” He commanded. “Be still!” And the wind died down, and it was perfectly calm.
39και διεγερθεισ επετιμησεν τω ανεμω και ειπεν τη θαλασση σιωπα πεφιμωσο και εκοπασεν ο ανεμοσ και εγενετο γαληνη μεγαλη
40“Why are you so afraid?” He asked. “Do you still have no faith?”
40και ειπεν αυτοισ τι δειλοι εστε ουτωσ πωσ ουκ εχετε πιστιν
41Overwhelmed with fear, they asked one another, “Who is this, that even the wind and the sea obey Him?”
41και εφοβηθησαν φοβον μεγαν και ελεγον προσ αλληλουσ τισ αρα ουτοσ εστιν οτι και ο ανεμοσ και η θαλασσα υπακουουσιν αυτω
