Greek New Testament: Byzantine Text (Robinson–Pierpont 2018)
1And in those days cometh John the Baptist preaching in the desert of Judea.
1εν δε ταισ ημεραισ εκειναισ παραγινεται ιωαννησ ο βαπτιστησ κηρυσσων εν τη ερημω τησ ιουδαιασ
2And saying: Do penance: for the kingdom of heaven is at hand.
2και λεγων μετανοειτε ηγγικεν γαρ η βασιλεια των ουρανων
3For this is he that was spoken of by Isaias the prophet, saying: A voice of one crying in the desert, Prepare ye the way of the Lord, make straight his paths.
3ουτοσ γαρ εστιν ο ρηθεισ υπο ησαιου του προφητου λεγοντοσ φωνη βοωντοσ εν τη ερημω ετοιμασατε την οδον κυριου ευθειασ ποιειτε τασ τριβουσ αυτου
4And the same John had his garment of camels’ hair, and a leathern girdle about his loins: and his meat was locusts and wild honey.
4αυτοσ δε ο ιωαννησ ειχεν το ενδυμα αυτου απο τριχων καμηλου και ζωνην δερματινην περι την οσφυν αυτου η δε τροφη αυτου ην ακριδεσ και μελι αγριον
5Then went out to him Jerusalem and all Judea, and all the country about Jordan:
5τοτε εξεπορευετο προσ αυτον ιεροσολυμα και πασα η ιουδαια και πασα η περιχωροσ του ιορδανου
6And were baptized by him in the Jordan, confessing their sins.
6και εβαπτιζοντο εν τω ιορδανη υπ αυτου εξομολογουμενοι τασ αμαρτιασ αυτων
7And seeing many of the Pharisees and Sadducees coming to his baptism, he said to them: Ye brood of vipers, who hath shewed you to flee from the wrath to come?
7ιδων δε πολλουσ των φαρισαιων και σαδδουκαιων ερχομενουσ επι το βαπτισμα αυτου ειπεν αυτοισ γεννηματα εχιδνων τισ υπεδειξεν υμιν φυγειν απο τησ μελλουσησ οργησ
8Bring forth therefore fruit worthy of penance.
8ποιησατε ουν καρπον αξιον τησ μετανοιασ
9And think not to say within yourselves, We have Abraham for our father. For I tell you that God is able of these stones to raise up children to Abraham.
9και μη δοξητε λεγειν εν εαυτοισ πατερα εχομεν τον αβρααμ λεγω γαρ υμιν οτι δυναται ο θεοσ εκ των λιθων τουτων εγειραι τεκνα τω αβρααμ
10For now the axe is laid to the root of the trees. Every tree therefore that doth not yield good fruit, shall be cut down, and cast into the fire.
10ηδη δε και η αξινη προσ την ριζαν των δενδρων κειται παν ουν δενδρον μη ποιουν καρπον καλον εκκοπτεται και εισ πυρ βαλλεται
11I indeed baptize you in the water unto penance, but he that shall come after me, is mightier than I, whose shoes I am not worthy to bear; he shall baptize you in the Holy Ghost and fire.
11εγω μεν βαπτιζω υμασ εν υδατι εισ μετανοιαν ο δε οπισω μου ερχομενοσ ισχυροτεροσ μου εστιν ου ουκ ειμι ικανοσ τα υποδηματα βαστασαι αυτοσ υμασ βαπτισει εν πνευματι αγιω
12Whose fan is in his hand, and he will thoroughly cleanse his floor and gather his wheat into the barn; but the chaff he will burn with unquenchable fire.
12ου το πτυον εν τη χειρι αυτου και διακαθαριει την αλωνα αυτου και συναξει τον σιτον αυτου εισ την αποθηκην το δε αχυρον κατακαυσει πυρι ασβεστω
13Then cometh Jesus from Galilee to the Jordan, unto John, to be baptized by him.
13τοτε παραγινεται ο ιησουσ απο τησ γαλιλαιασ επι τον ιορδανην προσ τον ιωαννην του βαπτισθηναι υπ αυτου
14But John stayed him, saying: I ought to be baptized by thee, and comest thou to me?
14ο δε ιωαννησ διεκωλυεν αυτον λεγων εγω χρειαν εχω υπο σου βαπτισθηναι και συ ερχη προσ με
15And Jesus answering, said to him: Suffer it to be so now. For so it becometh us to fulfill all justice. Then he suffered him.
15αποκριθεισ δε ο ιησουσ ειπεν προσ αυτον αφεσ αρτι ουτωσ γαρ πρεπον εστιν ημιν πληρωσαι πασαν δικαιοσυνην τοτε αφιησιν αυτον
16And Jesus being baptized, forthwith came out of the water: and lo, the heavens were opened to him: and he saw the Spirit of God descending as a dove, and coming upon him.
16και βαπτισθεισ ο ιησουσ ανεβη ευθυσ απο του υδατοσ και ιδου ανεωχθησαν αυτω οι ουρανοι και ειδεν το πνευμα του θεου καταβαινον ωσει περιστεραν και ερχομενον επ αυτον
17And behold a voice from heaven, saying: This is my beloved Son, in whom I am well pleased.
17και ιδου φωνη εκ των ουρανων λεγουσα ουτοσ εστιν ο υιοσ μου ο αγαπητοσ εν ω ευδοκησα
