Greek New Testament: Byzantine Text (Robinson–Pierpont 2018)
1Soon afterwards, he went about through cities and villages, preaching and bringing the good news of God’s Kingdom. With him were the twelve,
1και εγενετο εν τω καθεξησ και αυτοσ διωδευεν κατα πολιν και κωμην κηρυσσων και ευαγγελιζομενοσ την βασιλειαν του θεου και οι δωδεκα συν αυτω
2and certain women who had been healed of evil spirits and infirmities: Mary who was called Magdalene, from whom seven demons had gone out;
2και γυναικεσ τινεσ αι ησαν τεθεραπευμεναι απο πνευματων πονηρων και ασθενειων μαρια η καλουμενη μαγδαληνη αφ ησ δαιμονια επτα εξεληλυθει
3and Joanna, the wife of Chuzas, Herod’s steward; Susanna; and many others who served them from their possessions.
3και ιωαννα γυνη χουζα επιτροπου ηρωδου και σουσαννα και ετεραι πολλαι αιτινεσ διηκονουν αυτοισ απο των υπαρχοντων αυταισ
4When a great multitude came together and people from every city were coming to him, he spoke by a parable:
4συνιοντοσ δε οχλου πολλου και των κατα πολιν επιπορευομενων προσ αυτον ειπεν δια παραβολησ
5“The farmer went out to sow his seed. As he sowed, some fell along the road, and it was trampled under foot, and the birds of the sky devoured it.
5εξηλθεν ο σπειρων του σπειραι τον σπορον αυτου και εν τω σπειρειν αυτον ο μεν επεσεν παρα την οδον και κατεπατηθη και τα πετεινα του ουρανου κατεφαγεν αυτο
6Some seed fell on the rock, and as soon as it grew, it withered away, because it had no moisture.
6και ετερον επεσεν επι την πετραν και φυεν εξηρανθη δια το μη εχειν ικμαδα
7Some fell amid the thorns, and the thorns grew with it and choked it.
7και ετερον επεσεν εν μεσω των ακανθων και συμφυεισαι αι ακανθαι απεπνιξαν αυτο
8Some fell into the good ground and grew and produced one hundred times as much fruit.” As he said these things, he called out, “He who has ears to hear, let him hear!”
8και ετερον επεσεν εισ την γην την αγαθην και φυεν εποιησεν καρπον εκατονταπλασιονα ταυτα λεγων εφωνει ο εχων ωτα ακουειν ακουετω
9Then his disciples asked him, “What does this parable mean?”
9επηρωτων δε αυτον οι μαθηται αυτου λεγοντεσ τισ ειη η παραβολη αυτη
10He said, “To you it is given to know the mysteries of God’s Kingdom, but to the rest it is given in parables, that ‘seeing they may not see, and hearing they may not understand.’
10ο δε ειπεν υμιν δεδοται γνωναι τα μυστηρια τησ βασιλειασ του θεου τοισ δε λοιποισ εν παραβολαισ ινα βλεποντεσ μη βλεπωσιν και ακουοντεσ μη συνιωσιν
11“Now the parable is this: The seed is the word of God.
11εστιν δε αυτη η παραβολη ο σποροσ εστιν ο λογοσ του θεου
12Those along the road are those who hear; then the devil comes and takes away the word from their heart, that they may not believe and be saved.
12οι δε παρα την οδον εισιν οι ακουοντεσ ειτα ερχεται ο διαβολοσ και αιρει τον λογον απο τησ καρδιασ αυτων ινα μη πιστευσαντεσ σωθωσιν
13Those on the rock are they who, when they hear, receive the word with joy; but these have no root. They believe for a while, then fall away in time of temptation.
13οι δε επι τησ πετρασ οι οταν ακουσωσιν μετα χαρασ δεχονται τον λογον και ουτοι ριζαν ουκ εχουσιν οι προσ καιρον πιστευουσιν και εν καιρω πειρασμου αφιστανται
14What fell among the thorns, these are those who have heard, and as they go on their way they are choked with cares, riches, and pleasures of life; and they bring no fruit to maturity.
14το δε εισ τασ ακανθασ πεσον ουτοι εισιν οι ακουσαντεσ και υπο μεριμνων και πλουτου και ηδονων του βιου πορευομενοι συμπνιγονται και ου τελεσφορουσιν
15Those in the good ground, these are those who with an honest and good heart, having heard the word, hold it tightly, and produce fruit with perseverance.
15το δε εν τη καλη γη ουτοι εισιν οιτινεσ εν καρδια καλη και αγαθη ακουσαντεσ τον λογον κατεχουσιν και καρποφορουσιν εν υπομονη
16“No one, when he has lit a lamp, covers it with a container or puts it under a bed; but puts it on a stand, that those who enter in may see the light.
16ουδεισ δε λυχνον αψασ καλυπτει αυτον σκευει η υποκατω κλινησ τιθησιν αλλ επι λυχνιασ επιτιθησιν ινα οι εισπορευομενοι βλεπωσιν το φωσ
17For nothing is hidden that will not be revealed, nor anything secret that will not be known and come to light.
17ου γαρ εστιν κρυπτον ο ου φανερον γενησεται ουδε αποκρυφον ο ου γνωσθησεται και εισ φανερον ελθη
18Be careful therefore how you hear. For whoever has, to him will be given; and whoever doesn’t have, from him will be taken away even that which he thinks he has.”
18βλεπετε ουν πωσ ακουετε οσ γαρ εαν εχη δοθησεται αυτω και οσ εαν μη εχη και ο δοκει εχειν αρθησεται απ αυτου
19His mother and brothers came to him, and they could not come near him for the crowd.
19παρεγενοντο δε προσ αυτον η μητηρ και οι αδελφοι αυτου και ουκ ηδυναντο συντυχειν αυτω δια τον οχλον
20Some people told him, “Your mother and your brothers stand outside, desiring to see you.”
20και απηγγελη αυτω λεγοντων η μητηρ σου και οι αδελφοι σου εστηκασιν εξω ιδειν σε θελοντεσ
21But he answered them, “My mother and my brothers are these who hear the word of God and do it.”
21ο δε αποκριθεισ ειπεν προσ αυτουσ μητηρ μου και αδελφοι μου ουτοι εισιν οι τον λογον του θεου ακουοντεσ και ποιουντεσ αυτον
22Now on one of those days, he entered into a boat, himself and his disciples, and he said to them, “Let’s go over to the other side of the lake.” So they launched out.
22και εγενετο εν μια των ημερων και αυτοσ ενεβη εισ πλοιον και οι μαθηται αυτου και ειπεν προσ αυτουσ διελθωμεν εισ το περαν τησ λιμνησ και ανηχθησαν
23But as they sailed, he fell asleep. A wind storm came down on the lake, and they were taking on dangerous amounts of water.
23πλεοντων δε αυτων αφυπνωσεν και κατεβη λαιλαψ ανεμου εισ την λιμνην και συνεπληρουντο και εκινδυνευον
24They came to him and awoke him, saying, “Master, Master, we are dying!” He awoke and rebuked the wind and the raging of the water; then they ceased, and it was calm.
24προσελθοντεσ δε διηγειραν αυτον λεγοντεσ επιστατα επιστατα απολλυμεθα ο δε εγερθεισ επετιμησεν τω ανεμω και τω κλυδωνι του υδατοσ και επαυσαντο και εγενετο γαληνη
25He said to them, “Where is your faith?” Being afraid, they marveled, saying to one another, “Who is this then, that he commands even the winds and the water, and they obey him?”
25ειπεν δε αυτοισ που εστιν η πιστισ υμων φοβηθεντεσ δε εθαυμασαν λεγοντεσ προσ αλληλουσ τισ αρα ουτοσ εστιν οτι και τοισ ανεμοισ επιτασσει και τω υδατι και υπακουουσιν αυτω
26Then they arrived at the country of the Gadarenes, which is opposite Galilee.
26και κατεπλευσαν εισ την χωραν των γαδαρηνων ητισ εστιν αντιπεραν τησ γαλιλαιασ
27When Jesus stepped ashore, a certain man out of the city who had demons for a long time met him. He wore no clothes, and didn’t live in a house, but in the tombs.
27εξελθοντι δε αυτω επι την γην υπηντησεν αυτω ανηρ τισ εκ τησ πολεωσ οσ ειχεν δαιμονια εκ χρονων ικανων και ιματιον ουκ ενεδιδυσκετο και εν οικια ουκ εμενεν αλλ εν τοισ μνημασιν
28When he saw Jesus, he cried out and fell down before him, and with a loud voice said, “What do I have to do with you, Jesus, you Son of the Most High God? I beg you, don’t torment me!”
28ιδων δε τον ιησουν και ανακραξασ προσεπεσεν αυτω και φωνη μεγαλη ειπεν τι εμοι και σοι ιησου υιε του θεου του υψιστου δεομαι σου μη με βασανισησ
29For Jesus was commanding the unclean spirit to come out of the man. For the unclean spirit had often seized the man. He was kept under guard and bound with chains and fetters. Breaking the bonds apart, he was driven by the demon into the desert.
29παρηγγειλεν γαρ τω πνευματι τω ακαθαρτω εξελθειν απο του ανθρωπου πολλοισ γαρ χρονοισ συνηρπακει αυτον και εδεσμειτο αλυσεσιν και πεδαισ φυλασσομενοσ και διαρρησσων τα δεσμα ηλαυνετο υπο του δαιμονοσ εισ τασ ερημουσ
30Jesus asked him, “What is your name?” He said, “Legion,” for many demons had entered into him.
30επηρωτησεν δε αυτον ο ιησουσ λεγων τι σοι εστιν ονομα ο δε ειπεν λεγεων οτι δαιμονια πολλα εισηλθεν εισ αυτον
31They begged him that he would not command them to go into the abyss.
31και παρεκαλει αυτον ινα μη επιταξη αυτοισ εισ την αβυσσον απελθειν
32Now there was there a herd of many pigs feeding on the mountain, and they begged him that he would allow them to enter into those. Then he allowed them.
32ην δε εκει αγελη χοιρων ικανων βοσκομενων εν τω ορει και παρεκαλουν αυτον ινα επιτρεψη αυτοισ εισ εκεινουσ εισελθειν και επετρεψεν αυτοισ
33The demons came out of the man and entered into the pigs, and the herd rushed down the steep bank into the lake and were drowned.
33εξελθοντα δε τα δαιμονια απο του ανθρωπου εισηλθον εισ τουσ χοιρουσ και ωρμησεν η αγελη κατα του κρημνου εισ την λιμνην και απεπνιγη
34When those who fed them saw what had happened, they fled and told it in the city and in the country.
34ιδοντεσ δε οι βοσκοντεσ το γεγενημενον εφυγον και απηγγειλαν εισ την πολιν και εισ τουσ αγρουσ
35People went out to see what had happened. They came to Jesus and found the man from whom the demons had gone out, sitting at Jesus’ feet, clothed and in his right mind; and they were afraid.
35εξηλθον δε ιδειν το γεγονοσ και ηλθον προσ τον ιησουν και ευρον καθημενον τον ανθρωπον αφ ου τα δαιμονια εξεληλυθει ιματισμενον και σωφρονουντα παρα τουσ ποδασ του ιησου και εφοβηθησαν
36Those who saw it told them how he who had been possessed by demons was healed.
36απηγγειλαν δε αυτοισ και οι ιδοντεσ πωσ εσωθη ο δαιμονισθεισ
37All the people of the surrounding country of the Gadarenes asked him to depart from them, for they were very much afraid. Then he entered into the boat and returned.
37και ηρωτησαν αυτον απαν το πληθοσ τησ περιχωρου των γαδαρηνων απελθειν απ αυτων οτι φοβω μεγαλω συνειχοντο αυτοσ δε εμβασ εισ το πλοιον υπεστρεψεν
38But the man from whom the demons had gone out begged him that he might go with him, but Jesus sent him away, saying,
38εδεετο δε αυτου ο ανηρ αφ ου εξεληλυθει τα δαιμονια ειναι συν αυτω απελυσεν δε αυτον ο ιησουσ λεγων
39“Return to your house, and declare what great things God has done for you.” He went his way, proclaiming throughout the whole city what great things Jesus had done for him.
39υποστρεφε εισ τον οικον σου και διηγου οσα εποιησεν σοι ο θεοσ και απηλθεν καθ ολην την πολιν κηρυσσων οσα εποιησεν αυτω ο ιησουσ
40When Jesus returned, the multitude welcomed him, for they were all waiting for him.
40εγενετο δε εν τω υποστρεψαι τον ιησουν απεδεξατο αυτον ο οχλοσ ησαν γαρ παντεσ προσδοκωντεσ αυτον
41Behold, a man named Jairus came. He was a ruler of the synagogue. He fell down at Jesus’ feet and begged him to come into his house,
41και ιδου ηλθεν ανηρ ω ονομα ιαειροσ και αυτοσ αρχων τησ συναγωγησ υπηρχεν και πεσων παρα τουσ ποδασ του ιησου παρεκαλει αυτον εισελθειν εισ τον οικον αυτου
42for he had an only born daughter, about twelve years of age, and she was dying. But as he went, the multitudes pressed against him.
42οτι θυγατηρ μονογενησ ην αυτω ωσ ετων δωδεκα και αυτη απεθνησκεν εν δε τω υπαγειν αυτον οι οχλοι συνεπνιγον αυτον
43A woman who had a flow of blood for twelve years, who had spent all her living on physicians and could not be healed by any,
43και γυνη ουσα εν ρυσει αιματοσ απο ετων δωδεκα ητισ ιατροισ προσαναλωσασα ολον τον βιον ουκ ισχυσεν υπ ουδενοσ θεραπευθηναι
44came behind him and touched the fringe of his cloak. Immediately the flow of her blood stopped.
44προσελθουσα οπισθεν ηψατο του κρασπεδου του ιματιου αυτου και παραχρημα εστη η ρυσισ του αιματοσ αυτησ
45Jesus said, “Who touched me?” When all denied it, Peter and those with him said, “Master, the multitudes press and jostle you, and you say, ‘Who touched me?’ ”
45και ειπεν ο ιησουσ τισ ο αψαμενοσ μου αρνουμενων δε παντων ειπεν ο πετροσ και οι μετ αυτου επιστατα οι οχλοι συνεχουσιν σε και αποθλιβουσιν και λεγεισ τισ ο αψαμενοσ μου
46But Jesus said, “Someone did touch me, for I perceived that power has gone out of me.”
46ο δε ιησουσ ειπεν ηψατο μου τισ εγω γαρ εγνων δυναμιν εξελθουσαν απ εμου
47When the woman saw that she was not hidden, she came trembling; and falling down before him declared to him in the presence of all the people the reason why she had touched him, and how she was healed immediately.
47ιδουσα δε η γυνη οτι ουκ ελαθεν τρεμουσα ηλθεν και προσπεσουσα αυτω δι ην αιτιαν ηψατο αυτου απηγγειλεν αυτω ενωπιον παντοσ του λαου και ωσ ιαθη παραχρημα
48He said to her, “Daughter, cheer up. Your faith has made you well. Go in peace.”
48ο δε ειπεν αυτη θαρσει θυγατερ η πιστισ σου σεσωκεν σε πορευου εισ ειρηνην
49While he still spoke, one from the ruler of the synagogue’s house came, saying to him, “Your daughter is dead. Don’t trouble the Teacher.”
49ετι αυτου λαλουντοσ ερχεται τισ παρα του αρχισυναγωγου λεγων αυτω οτι τεθνηκεν η θυγατηρ σου μη σκυλλε τον διδασκαλον
50But Jesus hearing it, answered him, “Don’t be afraid. Only believe, and she will be healed.”
50ο δε ιησουσ ακουσασ απεκριθη αυτω λεγων μη φοβου μονον πιστευε και σωθησεται
51When he came to the house, he didn’t allow anyone to enter in, except Peter, John, James, the father of the child, and her mother.
51ελθων δε εισ την οικιαν ουκ αφηκεν εισελθειν ουδενα ει μη πετρον και ιωαννην και ιακωβον και τον πατερα τησ παιδοσ και την μητερα
52All were weeping and mourning her, but he said, “Don’t weep. She isn’t dead, but sleeping.”
52εκλαιον δε παντεσ και εκοπτοντο αυτην ο δε ειπεν μη κλαιετε ουκ απεθανεν αλλα καθευδει
53They were ridiculing him, knowing that she was dead.
53και κατεγελων αυτου ειδοτεσ οτι απεθανεν
54But he put them all outside, and taking her by the hand, he called, saying, “Child, arise!”
54αυτοσ δε εκβαλων εξω παντασ και κρατησασ τησ χειροσ αυτησ εφωνησεν λεγων η παισ εγειρου
55Her spirit returned, and she rose up immediately. He commanded that something be given to her to eat.
55και επεστρεψεν το πνευμα αυτησ και ανεστη παραχρημα και διεταξεν αυτη δοθηναι φαγειν
56Her parents were amazed, but he commanded them to tell no one what had been done.
56και εξεστησαν οι γονεισ αυτησ ο δε παρηγγειλεν αυτοισ μηδενι ειπειν το γεγονοσ
