Greek New Testament: Byzantine Text (Robinson–Pierpont 2018)
1And it came to pass, when Jesus went into the house of one of the chief of the Pharisees, on the sabbath day, to eat bread, that they watched him.
1και εγενετο εν τω ελθειν αυτον εισ οικον τινοσ των αρχοντων των φαρισαιων σαββατω φαγειν αρτον και αυτοι ησαν παρατηρουμενοι αυτον
2And behold, there was a certain man before him that had the dropsy.
2και ιδου ανθρωποσ τισ ην υδρωπικοσ εμπροσθεν αυτου
3And Jesus answering, spoke to the lawyers and Pharisees, saying: Is it lawful to heal on the sabbath day?
3και αποκριθεισ ο ιησουσ ειπεν προσ τουσ νομικουσ και φαρισαιουσ λεγων ει εξεστιν τω σαββατω θεραπευειν
4But they held their peace. But he taking him, healed him, and sent him away.
4οι δε ησυχασαν και επιλαβομενοσ ιασατο αυτον και απελυσεν
5And answering them, he said: Which of you shall have an ass or an ox fall into a pit, and will not immediately draw him out, on the sabbath day?
5και αποκριθεισ προσ αυτουσ ειπεν τινοσ υμων υιοσ η βουσ εισ φρεαρ εμπεσειται και ουκ ευθεωσ ανασπασει αυτον εν τη ημερα του σαββατου
6And they could not answer him to these things.
6και ουκ ισχυσαν ανταποκριθηναι αυτω προσ ταυτα
7And he spoke a parable also to them that were invited, marking how they chose the first seats at the table, saying to them:
7ελεγεν δε προσ τουσ κεκλημενουσ παραβολην επεχων πωσ τασ πρωτοκλισιασ εξελεγοντο λεγων προσ αυτουσ
8When thou art invited to a wedding, sit not down in the first place, lest perhaps one more honourable than thou be invited by him:
8οταν κληθησ υπο τινοσ εισ γαμουσ μη κατακλιθησ εισ την πρωτοκλισιαν μηποτε εντιμοτεροσ σου η κεκλημενοσ υπ αυτου
9And he that invited thee and him, come and say to thee, Give this man place: and then thou begin with shame to take the lowest place.
9και ελθων ο σε και αυτον καλεσασ ερει σοι δοσ τουτω τοπον και τοτε αρξη μετ αισχυνησ τον εσχατον τοπον κατεχειν
10But when thou art invited, go, sit down in the lowest place; that when he who invited thee, cometh, he may say to thee: Friend, go up higher. Then shalt thou have glory before them that sit at table with thee.
10αλλ οταν κληθησ πορευθεισ αναπεσε εισ τον εσχατον τοπον ινα οταν ελθη ο κεκληκωσ σε ειπη σοι φιλε προσαναβηθι ανωτερον τοτε εσται σοι δοξα ενωπιον των συνανακειμενων σοι
11Because every one that exalteth himself, shall be humbled; and he that humbleth himself, shall be exalted.
11οτι πασ ο υψων εαυτον ταπεινωθησεται και ο ταπεινων εαυτον υψωθησεται
12And he said to him also that had invited him: When thou makest a dinner or a supper, call not thy friends, nor thy brethren, nor thy kinsmen, nor thy neighbours who are rich; lest perhaps they also invite thee again, and a recompense be made to thee.
12ελεγεν δε και τω κεκληκοτι αυτον οταν ποιησ αριστον η δειπνον μη φωνει τουσ φιλουσ σου μηδε τουσ αδελφουσ σου μηδε τουσ συγγενεισ σου μηδε γειτονασ πλουσιουσ μηποτε και αυτοι σε αντικαλεσωσιν και γενηται σοι ανταποδομα
13But when thou makest a feast, call the poor, the maimed, the lame, and the blind;
13αλλ οταν ποιησ δοχην καλει πτωχουσ αναπηρουσ χωλουσ τυφλουσ
14And thou shalt be blessed, because they have not wherewith to make thee recompense: for recompense shall be made thee at the resurrection of the just.
14και μακαριοσ εση οτι ουκ εχουσιν ανταποδουναι σοι ανταποδοθησεται γαρ σοι εν τη αναστασει των δικαιων
15When one of them that sat at table with him, had heard these things, he said to him: Blessed is he that shall eat bread in the kingdom of God.
15ακουσασ δε τισ των συνανακειμενων ταυτα ειπεν αυτω μακαριοσ οσ φαγεται αριστον εν τη βασιλεια του θεου
16But he said to him: A certain man made a great supper, and invited many.
16ο δε ειπεν αυτω ανθρωποσ τισ εποιησεν δειπνον μεγα και εκαλεσεν πολλουσ
17And he sent his servant at the hour of supper to say to them that were invited, that they should come, for now all things are ready.
17και απεστειλεν τον δουλον αυτου τη ωρα του δειπνου ειπειν τοισ κεκλημενοισ ερχεσθε οτι ηδη ετοιμα εστιν παντα
18And they began all at once to make excuse. The first said to him: I have bought a farm, and I must needs go out and see it: I pray thee, hold me excused.
18και ηρξαντο απο μιασ παραιτεισθαι παντεσ ο πρωτοσ ειπεν αυτω αγρον ηγορασα και εχω αναγκην εξελθειν και ιδειν αυτον ερωτω σε εχε με παρητημενον
19And another said: I have bought five yoke of oxen, and I go to try them: I pray thee, hold me excused.
19και ετεροσ ειπεν ζευγη βοων ηγορασα πεντε και πορευομαι δοκιμασαι αυτα ερωτω σε εχε με παρητημενον
20And another said: I have married a wife, and therefore I cannot come.
20και ετεροσ ειπεν γυναικα εγημα και δια τουτο ου δυναμαι ελθειν
21And the servant returning, told these things to his lord. Then the master of the house, being angry, said to his servant: Go out quickly into the streets and lanes of the city, and bring in hither the poor, and the feeble, and the blind, and the lame.
21και παραγενομενοσ ο δουλοσ εκεινοσ απηγγειλεν τω κυριω αυτου ταυτα τοτε οργισθεισ ο οικοδεσποτησ ειπεν τω δουλω αυτου εξελθε ταχεωσ εισ τασ πλατειασ και ρυμασ τησ πολεωσ και τουσ πτωχουσ και αναπηρουσ και χωλουσ και τυφλουσ εισαγαγε ωδε
22And the servant said: Lord, it is done as thou hast commanded, and yet there is room.
22και ειπεν ο δουλοσ κυριε γεγονεν ωσ επεταξασ και ετι τοποσ εστιν
23And the Lord said to the servant: Go out into the highways and hedges, and compel them to come in, that my house may be filled.
23και ειπεν ο κυριοσ προσ τον δουλον εξελθε εισ τασ οδουσ και φραγμουσ και αναγκασον εισελθειν ινα γεμισθη ο οικοσ μου
24But I say unto you, that none of those men that were invited, shall taste of my supper.
24λεγω γαρ υμιν οτι ουδεισ των ανδρων εκεινων των κεκλημενων γευσεται μου του δειπνου πολλοι γαρ εισιν κλητοι ολιγοι δε εκλεκτοι
25And there went great multitudes with him. And turning, he said to them:
25συνεπορευοντο δε αυτω οχλοι πολλοι και στραφεισ ειπεν προσ αυτουσ
26If any man come to me, and hate not his father, and mother, and wife, and children, and brethren, and sisters, yea and his own life also, he cannot be my disciple.
26ει τισ ερχεται προσ με και ου μισει τον πατερα αυτου και την μητερα και την γυναικα και τα τεκνα και τουσ αδελφουσ και τασ αδελφασ ετι δε και την εαυτου ψυχην ου δυναται μου μαθητησ ειναι
27And whosoever doth not carry his cross and come after me, cannot be my disciple.
27και οστισ ου βασταζει τον σταυρον αυτου και ερχεται οπισω μου ου δυναται ειναι μου μαθητησ
28For which of you having a mind to build a tower, doth not first sit down, and reckon the charges that are necessary, whether he have wherewithal to finish it:
28τισ γαρ εξ υμων ο θελων πυργον οικοδομησαι ουχι πρωτον καθισασ ψηφιζει την δαπανην ει εχει τα εισ απαρτισμον
29Lest, after he hath laid the foundation, and is not able to finish it, all that see it begin to mock him,
29ινα μηποτε θεντοσ αυτου θεμελιον και μη ισχυοντοσ εκτελεσαι παντεσ οι θεωρουντεσ αρξωνται εμπαιζειν αυτω
30Saying: This man began to build, and was not able to finish.
30λεγοντεσ οτι ουτοσ ο ανθρωποσ ηρξατο οικοδομειν και ουκ ισχυσεν εκτελεσαι
31Or what king, about to go to make war against another king, doth not first sit down, and think whether he be able, with ten thousand, to meet him that, with twenty thousand, cometh against him?
31η τισ βασιλευσ πορευομενοσ συμβαλειν ετερω βασιλει εισ πολεμον ουχι καθισασ πρωτον βουλευεται ει δυνατοσ εστιν εν δεκα χιλιασιν απαντησαι τω μετα εικοσι χιλιαδων ερχομενω επ αυτον
32Or else, whilst the other is yet afar off, sending an embassy, he desireth conditions of peace.
32ει δε μηγε ετι πορρω αυτου οντοσ πρεσβειαν αποστειλασ ερωτα τα προσ ειρηνην
33So likewise every one of you that doth not renounce all that he possesseth, cannot be my disciple.
33ουτωσ ουν πασ εξ υμων οσ ουκ αποτασσεται πασιν τοισ εαυτου υπαρχουσιν ου δυναται μου ειναι μαθητησ
34Salt is good. But if the salt shall lose its savour, wherewith shall it be seasoned?
34καλον το αλασ εαν δε το αλασ μωρανθη εν τινι αρτυθησεται
35It is neither profitable for the land nor for the dunghill, but shall be cast out. He that hath ears to hear, let him hear.
35ουτε εισ γην ουτε εισ κοπριαν ευθετον εστιν εξω βαλλουσιν αυτο ο εχων ωτα ακουειν ακουετω
