Greek New Testament: Byzantine Text (Robinson–Pierpont 2018)
1When Jesus had finished directing his twelve disciples, he departed from there to teach and preach in their cities.
1και εγενετο οτε ετελεσεν ο ιησουσ διατασσων τοισ δωδεκα μαθηταισ αυτου μετεβη εκειθεν του διδασκειν και κηρυσσειν εν ταισ πολεσιν αυτων
2Now when John heard in the prison the works of Christ, he sent two of his disciples
2ο δε ιωαννησ ακουσασ εν τω δεσμωτηριω τα εργα του χριστου πεμψασ δυο των μαθητων αυτου
3and said to him, “Are you he who comes, or should we look for another?”
3ειπεν αυτω συ ει ο ερχομενοσ η ετερον προσδοκωμεν
4Jesus answered them, “Go and tell John the things which you hear and see:
4και αποκριθεισ ο ιησουσ ειπεν αυτοισ πορευθεντεσ απαγγειλατε ιωαννη α ακουετε και βλεπετε
5the blind receive their sight, the lame walk, the lepers are cleansed, the deaf hear, the dead are raised up, and the poor have good news preached to them.
5τυφλοι αναβλεπουσιν και χωλοι περιπατουσιν λεπροι καθαριζονται και κωφοι ακουουσιν νεκροι εγειρονται και πτωχοι ευαγγελιζονται
6Blessed is he who finds no occasion for stumbling in me.”
6και μακαριοσ εστιν οσ εαν μη σκανδαλισθη εν εμοι
7As these went their way, Jesus began to say to the multitudes concerning John, “What did you go out into the wilderness to see? A reed shaken by the wind?
7τουτων δε πορευομενων ηρξατο ο ιησουσ λεγειν τοισ οχλοισ περι ιωαννου τι εξηλθετε εισ την ερημον θεασασθαι καλαμον υπο ανεμου σαλευομενον
8But what did you go out to see? A man in soft clothing? Behold, those who wear soft clothing are in kings’ houses.
8αλλα τι εξηλθετε ιδειν ανθρωπον εν μαλακοισ ιματιοισ ημφιεσμενον ιδου οι τα μαλακα φορουντεσ εν τοισ οικοισ των βασιλειων εισιν
9But why did you go out? To see a prophet? Yes, I tell you, and much more than a prophet.
9αλλα τι εξηλθετε ιδειν προφητην ναι λεγω υμιν και περισσοτερον προφητου
10For this is he, of whom it is written, ‘Behold, I send my messenger before your face, who will prepare your way before you.’
10ουτοσ γαρ εστιν περι ου γεγραπται ιδου εγω αποστελλω τον αγγελον μου προ προσωπου σου οσ κατασκευασει την οδον σου εμπροσθεν σου
11Most certainly I tell you, among those who are born of women there has not arisen anyone greater than John the Baptizer; yet he who is least in the Kingdom of Heaven is greater than he.
11αμην λεγω υμιν ουκ εγηγερται εν γεννητοισ γυναικων μειζων ιωαννου του βαπτιστου ο δε μικροτεροσ εν τη βασιλεια των ουρανων μειζων αυτου εστιν
12From the days of John the Baptizer until now, the Kingdom of Heaven suffers violence, and the violent take it by force.
12απο δε των ημερων ιωαννου του βαπτιστου εωσ αρτι η βασιλεια των ουρανων βιαζεται και βιασται αρπαζουσιν αυτην
13For all the prophets and the law prophesied until John.
13παντεσ γαρ οι προφηται και ο νομοσ εωσ ιωαννου προεφητευσαν
14If you are willing to receive it, this is Elijah, who is to come.
14και ει θελετε δεξασθαι αυτοσ εστιν ηλιασ ο μελλων ερχεσθαι
15He who has ears to hear, let him hear.
15ο εχων ωτα ακουειν ακουετω
16“But to what shall I compare this generation? It is like children sitting in the marketplaces, who call to their companions
16τινι δε ομοιωσω την γενεαν ταυτην ομοια εστιν παιδιοισ εν αγοραισ καθημενοισ και προσφωνουσιν τοισ εταιροισ αυτων
17and say, ‘We played the flute for you, and you didn’t dance. We mourned for you, and you didn’t lament.’
17και λεγουσιν ηυλησαμεν υμιν και ουκ ωρχησασθε εθρηνησαμεν υμιν και ουκ εκοψασθε
18For John came neither eating nor drinking, and they say, ‘He has a demon.’
18ηλθεν γαρ ιωαννησ μητε εσθιων μητε πινων και λεγουσιν δαιμονιον εχει
19The Son of Man came eating and drinking, and they say, ‘Behold, a gluttonous man and a drunkard, a friend of tax collectors and sinners!’ But wisdom is justified by her children.”
19ηλθεν ο υιοσ του ανθρωπου εσθιων και πινων και λεγουσιν ιδου ανθρωποσ φαγοσ και οινοποτησ τελωνων φιλοσ και αμαρτωλων και εδικαιωθη η σοφια απο των τεκνων αυτησ
20Then he began to denounce the cities in which most of his mighty works had been done, because they didn’t repent.
20τοτε ηρξατο ονειδιζειν τασ πολεισ εν αισ εγενοντο αι πλεισται δυναμεισ αυτου οτι ου μετενοησαν
21“Woe to you, Chorazin! Woe to you, Bethsaida! For if the mighty works had been done in Tyre and Sidon which were done in you, they would have repented long ago in sackcloth and ashes.
21ουαι σοι χοραζιν ουαι σοι βηθσαιδα οτι ει εν τυρω και σιδωνι εγενοντο αι δυναμεισ αι γενομεναι εν υμιν παλαι αν εν σακκω και σποδω μετενοησαν
22But I tell you, it will be more tolerable for Tyre and Sidon on the day of judgment than for you.
22πλην λεγω υμιν τυρω και σιδωνι ανεκτοτερον εσται εν ημερα κρισεωσ η υμιν
23You, Capernaum, who are exalted to heaven, you will go down to Hades. For if the mighty works had been done in Sodom which were done in you, it would have remained until today.
23και συ καπερναουμ η εωσ του ουρανου υψωθεισα εωσ αδου καταβιβασθηση οτι ει εν σοδομοισ εγενοντο αι δυναμεισ αι γενομεναι εν σοι εμειναν αν μεχρι τησ σημερον
24But I tell you that it will be more tolerable for the land of Sodom on the day of judgment, than for you.”
24πλην λεγω υμιν οτι γη σοδομων ανεκτοτερον εσται εν ημερα κρισεωσ η σοι
25At that time, Jesus answered, “I thank you, Father, Lord of heaven and earth, that you hid these things from the wise and understanding, and revealed them to infants.
25εν εκεινω τω καιρω αποκριθεισ ο ιησουσ ειπεν εξομολογουμαι σοι πατερ κυριε του ουρανου και τησ γησ οτι απεκρυψασ ταυτα απο σοφων και συνετων και απεκαλυψασ αυτα νηπιοισ
26Yes, Father, for so it was well-pleasing in your sight.
26ναι ο πατηρ οτι ουτωσ εγενετο ευδοκια εμπροσθεν σου
27All things have been delivered to me by my Father. No one knows the Son, except the Father; neither does anyone know the Father, except the Son and he to whom the Son desires to reveal him.
27παντα μοι παρεδοθη υπο του πατροσ μου και ουδεισ επιγινωσκει τον υιον ει μη ο πατηρ ουδε τον πατερα τισ επιγινωσκει ει μη ο υιοσ και ω εαν βουληται ο υιοσ αποκαλυψαι
28“Come to me, all you who labor and are heavily burdened, and I will give you rest.
28δευτε προσ με παντεσ οι κοπιωντεσ και πεφορτισμενοι καγω αναπαυσω υμασ
29Take my yoke upon you and learn from me, for I am gentle and humble in heart; and you will find rest for your souls.
29αρατε τον ζυγον μου εφ υμασ και μαθετε απ εμου οτι πραοσ ειμι και ταπεινοσ τη καρδια και ευρησετε αναπαυσιν ταισ ψυχαισ υμων
30For my yoke is easy, and my burden is light.”
30ο γαρ ζυγοσ μου χρηστοσ και το φορτιον μου ελαφρον εστιν
