Greek New Testament: Byzantine Text (Robinson–Pierpont 2018)
1And when they drew nigh to Jerusalem, and were come to Bethphage, unto mount Olivet, then Jesus sent two disciples,
1και οτε ηγγισαν εισ ιεροσολυμα και ηλθον εισ βηθσφαγη προσ το οροσ των ελαιων τοτε ο ιησουσ απεστειλεν δυο μαθητασ
2Saying to them: Go ye into the village that is over against you, and immediately you shall find an ass tied, and a colt with her: loose them and bring them to me.
2λεγων αυτοισ πορευθητε εισ την κωμην την απεναντι υμων και ευθεωσ ευρησετε ονον δεδεμενην και πωλον μετ αυτησ λυσαντεσ αγαγετε μοι
3And if any man shall say anything to you, say ye, that the Lord hath need of them: and forthwith he will let them go.
3και εαν τισ υμιν ειπη τι ερειτε οτι ο κυριοσ αυτων χρειαν εχει ευθεωσ δε αποστελλει αυτουσ
4Now all this was done that it might be fulfilled which was spoken by the prophet, saying:
4τουτο δε ολον γεγονεν ινα πληρωθη το ρηθεν δια του προφητου λεγοντοσ
5Tell ye the daughter of Sion: Behold thy king cometh to thee, meek, and sitting upon an ass, and a colt the foal of her that is used to the yoke.
5ειπατε τη θυγατρι σιων ιδου ο βασιλευσ σου ερχεται σοι πραυσ και επιβεβηκωσ επι ονον και πωλον υιον υποζυγιου
6And the disciples going, did as Jesus commanded them.
6πορευθεντεσ δε οι μαθηται και ποιησαντεσ καθωσ προσεταξεν αυτοισ ο ιησουσ
7And they brought the ass and the colt, and laid their garments upon them, and made him sit thereon.
7ηγαγον την ονον και τον πωλον και επεθηκαν επανω αυτων τα ιματια αυτων και επεκαθισεν επανω αυτων
8And a very great multitude spread their garments in the way: and others cut boughs from the trees, and strewed them in the way:
8ο δε πλειστοσ οχλοσ εστρωσαν εαυτων τα ιματια εν τη οδω αλλοι δε εκοπτον κλαδουσ απο των δενδρων και εστρωννυον εν τη οδω
9And the multitudes that went before and that followed, cried, saying: Hosanna to the son of David: Blessed is he that cometh in the name of the Lord: Hosanna in the highest.
9οι δε οχλοι οι προαγοντεσ και οι ακολουθουντεσ εκραζον λεγοντεσ ωσαννα τω υιω δαυιδ ευλογημενοσ ο ερχομενοσ εν ονοματι κυριου ωσαννα εν τοισ υψιστοισ
10And when he was come into Jerusalem, the whole city was moved, saying: Who is this?
10και εισελθοντοσ αυτου εισ ιεροσολυμα εσεισθη πασα η πολισ λεγουσα τισ εστιν ουτοσ
11And the people said: This is Jesus the prophet, from Nazareth of Galilee.
11οι δε οχλοι ελεγον ουτοσ εστιν ιησουσ ο προφητησ ο απο ναζαρετ τησ γαλιλαιασ
12And Jesus went into the temple of God, and cast out all them that sold and bought in the temple, and overthrew the tables of the money changers, and the chairs of them that sold doves:
12και εισηλθεν ο ιησουσ εισ το ιερον του θεου και εξεβαλεν παντασ τουσ πωλουντασ και αγοραζοντασ εν τω ιερω και τασ τραπεζασ των κολλυβιστων κατεστρεψεν και τασ καθεδρασ των πωλουντων τασ περιστερασ
13And he saith to them: It is written, My house shall be called the house of prayer; but you have made it a den of thieves.
13και λεγει αυτοισ γεγραπται ο οικοσ μου οικοσ προσευχησ κληθησεται υμεισ δε αυτον εποιησατε σπηλαιον ληστων
14And there came to him the blind and the lame in the temple; and he healed them.
14και προσηλθον αυτω χωλοι και τυφλοι εν τω ιερω και εθεραπευσεν αυτουσ
15And the chief priests and scribes, seeing the wonderful things that he did, and the children crying in the temple, and saying: Hosanna to the son of David; were moved with indignation.
15ιδοντεσ δε οι αρχιερεισ και οι γραμματεισ τα θαυμασια α εποιησεν και τουσ παιδασ κραζοντασ εν τω ιερω και λεγοντασ ωσαννα τω υιω δαυιδ ηγανακτησαν
16And said to him: Hearest thou what these say? And Jesus said to them: Yea, have you never read: Out of the mouth of infants and of sucklings thou hast perfected praise?
16και ειπον αυτω ακουεισ τι ουτοι λεγουσιν ο δε ιησουσ λεγει αυτοισ ναι ουδεποτε ανεγνωτε οτι εκ στοματοσ νηπιων και θηλαζοντων κατηρτισω αινον
17And leaving them, he went out of the city into Bethania, and remained there.
17και καταλιπων αυτουσ εξηλθεν εξω τησ πολεωσ εισ βηθανιαν και ηυλισθη εκει
18And in the morning, returning into the city, he was hungry.
18πρωιασ δε επαναγων εισ την πολιν επεινασεν
19And seeing a certain fig tree by the way side, he came to it, and found nothing on it but leaves only, and he saith to it: May no fruit grow on thee henceforward for ever. And immediately the fig tree withered away.
19και ιδων συκην μιαν επι τησ οδου ηλθεν επ αυτην και ουδεν ευρεν εν αυτη ει μη φυλλα μονον και λεγει αυτη μηκετι εκ σου καρποσ γενηται εισ τον αιωνα και εξηρανθη παραχρημα η συκη
20And the disciples seeing it wondered, saying: How is it presently withered away?
20και ιδοντεσ οι μαθηται εθαυμασαν λεγοντεσ πωσ παραχρημα εξηρανθη η συκη
21And Jesus answering, said to them: Amen, I say to you, if you shall have faith, and stagger not, not only this of the fig tree shall you do, but also if you shall say to this mountain, Take up and cast thyself into the sea, it shall be done.
21αποκριθεισ δε ο ιησουσ ειπεν αυτοισ αμην λεγω υμιν εαν εχητε πιστιν και μη διακριθητε ου μονον το τησ συκησ ποιησετε αλλα καν τω ορει τουτω ειπητε αρθητι και βληθητι εισ την θαλασσαν γενησεται
22And in all things whatsoever you shall ask in prayer, believing, you shall receive.
22και παντα οσα εαν αιτησητε εν τη προσευχη πιστευοντεσ ληψεσθε
23And when he was come into the temple, there came to him, as he was teaching, the chief priests and ancients of the people, saying: By what authority dost thou these things? and who hath given thee this authority?
23και ελθοντι αυτω εισ το ιερον προσηλθον αυτω διδασκοντι οι αρχιερεισ και οι πρεσβυτεροι του λαου λεγοντεσ εν ποια εξουσια ταυτα ποιεισ και τισ σοι εδωκεν την εξουσιαν ταυτην
24Jesus answering, said to them: I also will ask you one word, which if you shall tell me, I will also tell you by what authority I do these things.
24αποκριθεισ δε ο ιησουσ ειπεν αυτοισ ερωτησω υμασ καγω λογον ενα ον εαν ειπητε μοι καγω υμιν ερω εν ποια εξουσια ταυτα ποιω
25The baptism of John, whence was it? from heaven or from men? But they thought within themselves, saying:
25το βαπτισμα ιωαννου ποθεν ην εξ ουρανου η εξ ανθρωπων οι δε διελογιζοντο παρ εαυτοισ λεγοντεσ εαν ειπωμεν εξ ουρανου ερει ημιν δια τι ουν ουκ επιστευσατε αυτω
26If we shall say, from heaven, he will say to us: Why then did you not believe him? But if we shall say, from men, we are afraid of the multitude: for all held John as a prophet.
26εαν δε ειπωμεν εξ ανθρωπων φοβουμεθα τον οχλον παντεσ γαρ εχουσιν τον ιωαννην ωσ προφητην
27And answering Jesus, they said: We know not. He also said to them: Neither do I tell you by what authority I do these things.
27και αποκριθεντεσ τω ιησου ειπον ουκ οιδαμεν εφη αυτοισ και αυτοσ ουδε εγω λεγω υμιν εν ποια εξουσια ταυτα ποιω
28But what think you? A certain man had two sons; and coming to the first, he said: Son, go work today in my vineyard.
28τι δε υμιν δοκει ανθρωποσ ειχεν τεκνα δυο και προσελθων τω πρωτω ειπεν τεκνον υπαγε σημερον εργαζου εν τω αμπελωνι μου
29And he answering, said: I will not. But afterwards, being moved with repentance, he went.
29ο δε αποκριθεισ ειπεν ου θελω υστερον δε μεταμεληθεισ απηλθεν
30And coming to the other, he said in like manner. And he answering, said: I go, Sir; and he went not.
30και προσελθων τω δευτερω ειπεν ωσαυτωσ ο δε αποκριθεισ ειπεν εγω κυριε και ουκ απηλθεν
31Which of the two did the father’s will? They say to him: The first. Jesus saith to them: Amen I say to you, that the publicans and the harlots shall go into the kingdom of God before you.
31τισ εκ των δυο εποιησεν το θελημα του πατροσ λεγουσιν αυτω ο πρωτοσ λεγει αυτοισ ο ιησουσ αμην λεγω υμιν οτι οι τελωναι και αι πορναι προαγουσιν υμασ εισ την βασιλειαν του θεου
32For John came to you in the way of justice, and you did not believe him. But the publicans and the harlots believed him: but you, seeing it, did not even afterwards repent, that you might believe him.
32ηλθεν γαρ προσ υμασ ιωαννησ εν οδω δικαιοσυνησ και ουκ επιστευσατε αυτω οι δε τελωναι και αι πορναι επιστευσαν αυτω υμεισ δε ιδοντεσ ου μετεμεληθητε υστερον του πιστευσαι αυτω
33Hear ye another parable. There was a man an householder, who planted a vineyard, and made a hedge round about it, and dug in it a press, and built a tower, and let it out to husbandmen; and went into a strange country.
33αλλην παραβολην ακουσατε ανθρωποσ τισ ην οικοδεσποτησ οστισ εφυτευσεν αμπελωνα και φραγμον αυτω περιεθηκεν και ωρυξεν εν αυτω ληνον και ωκοδομησεν πυργον και εξεδοτο αυτον γεωργοισ και απεδημησεν
34And when the time of the fruits drew nigh, he sent his servants to the husbandmen that they might receive the fruits thereof.
34οτε δε ηγγισεν ο καιροσ των καρπων απεστειλεν τουσ δουλουσ αυτου προσ τουσ γεωργουσ λαβειν τουσ καρπουσ αυτου
35And the husbandmen laying hands on his servants, beat one, and killed another, and stoned another.
35και λαβοντεσ οι γεωργοι τουσ δουλουσ αυτου ον μεν εδειραν ον δε απεκτειναν ον δε ελιθοβολησαν
36Again he sent other servants more than the former; and they did to them in like manner.
36παλιν απεστειλεν αλλουσ δουλουσ πλειονασ των πρωτων και εποιησαν αυτοισ ωσαυτωσ
37And last of all he sent to them his son, saying: They will reverence my son.
37υστερον δε απεστειλεν προσ αυτουσ τον υιον αυτου λεγων εντραπησονται τον υιον μου
38But the husbandmen seeing the son, said among themselves: This is the heir: come, let us kill him, and we shall have his inheritance.
38οι δε γεωργοι ιδοντεσ τον υιον ειπον εν εαυτοισ ουτοσ εστιν ο κληρονομοσ δευτε αποκτεινωμεν αυτον και κατασχωμεν την κληρονομιαν αυτου
39And taking him, they cast him forth out of the vineyard, and killed him.
39και λαβοντεσ αυτον εξεβαλον εξω του αμπελωνοσ και απεκτειναν
40When therefore the lord of the vineyard shall come, what will he do to those husbandmen?
40οταν ουν ελθη ο κυριοσ του αμπελωνοσ τι ποιησει τοισ γεωργοισ εκεινοισ
41They say to him: He will bring those evil men to an evil end; and will let out his vineyard to other husbandmen, that shall render him the fruit in due season.
41λεγουσιν αυτω κακουσ κακωσ απολεσει αυτουσ και τον αμπελωνα εκδωσεται αλλοισ γεωργοισ οιτινεσ αποδωσουσιν αυτω τουσ καρπουσ εν τοισ καιροισ αυτων
42Jesus saith to them: Have you never read in the Scriptures: The stone which the builders rejected, the same is become the head of the corner? By the Lord this has been done; and it is wonderful in our eyes.
42λεγει αυτοισ ο ιησουσ ουδεποτε ανεγνωτε εν ταισ γραφαισ λιθον ον απεδοκιμασαν οι οικοδομουντεσ ουτοσ εγενηθη εισ κεφαλην γωνιασ παρα κυριου εγενετο αυτη και εστιν θαυμαστη εν οφθαλμοισ ημων
43Therefore I say to you, that the kingdom of God shall be taken from you, and shall be given to a nation yielding the fruits thereof.
43δια τουτο λεγω υμιν οτι αρθησεται αφ υμων η βασιλεια του θεου και δοθησεται εθνει ποιουντι τουσ καρπουσ αυτησ
44And whosoever shall fall on this stone, shall be broken: but on whomsoever it shall fall, it shall grind him to powder.
44και ο πεσων επι τον λιθον τουτον συνθλασθησεται εφ ον δ αν πεση λικμησει αυτον
45And when the chief priests and Pharisees had heard his parables, they knew that he spoke of them.
45και ακουσαντεσ οι αρχιερεισ και οι φαρισαιοι τασ παραβολασ αυτου εγνωσαν οτι περι αυτων λεγει
46And seeking to lay hands on him, they feared the multitudes: because they held him as a prophet.
46και ζητουντεσ αυτον κρατησαι εφοβηθησαν τουσ οχλουσ επειδη ωσ προφητην αυτον ειχον
