Luke 7

1Now when He concluded all His sayings in the hearing of the people, He entered Capernaum.

επει δε επληρωσεν παντα τα ρηματα αυτου εις τας ακοας του λαου, εισηλθεν εις καπερναουμ.

2And a certain centurion's servant, who was dear to him, was sick and ready to die.

εκατονταρχου δε τινος δουλος κακως εχων ημελλεν τελευταν, ος ην αυτω εντιμος.

3So when he heard about Jesus, he sent elders of the Jews to Him, pleading with Him to come and heal his servant.

ακουσας δε περι του ιησου απεστειλεν προς αυτον πρεσβυτερους των ιουδαιων ερωτων αυτον οπως ελθων διασωση τον δουλον αυτου.

4And when they came to Jesus, they begged Him earnestly, saying that the one for whom He should do this was deserving,

οι δε παραγενομενοι προς τον ιησουν παρεκαλουν αυτον σπουδαιως, λεγοντες οτι αξιος εστιν ω παρεξει τουτο.

5'for he loves our nation, and has built us a synagogue.'

αγαπα γαρ το εθνος ημων, και την συναγωγην αυτος ωκοδομησεν ημιν.

6Then Jesus went with them. And when He was already not far from the house, the centurion sent friends to Him, saying to Him, 'Lord, do not trouble Yourself, for I am not worthy that You should enter under my roof.

ο δε ιησους επορευετο συν αυτοις. ηδη δε αυτου ου μακραν απεχοντος απο της οικιας επεμψεν προς αυτον ο εκατονταρχος φιλους λεγων αυτω· κυριε, μη σκυλλου· ου γαρ ειμι ικανος ινα υπο την στεγην μου εισελθης·

7Therefore I did not even think myself worthy to come to You. But say the word, and my servant will be healed.

διο ουδε εμαυτον ηξιωσα προς σε ελθειν· αλλ ειπε λογω, και ιαθησεται ο παις μου.

8For I also am a man placed under authority, having soldiers under me. And I say to one, 'Go,' and he goes; and to another, 'Come,' and he comes; and to my servant, 'Do this,' and he does it.'

και γαρ εγω ανθρωπος ειμι υπο εξουσιαν τασσομενος, εχων υπ εμαυτον στρατιωτας, και λεγω τουτω, πορευθητι, και πορευεται, και αλλω, ερχου, και ερχεται, και τω δουλω μου, ποιησον τουτο, και ποιει.

9When Jesus heard these things, He marveled at him, and turned around and said to the crowd that followed Him, 'I say to you, I have not found such great faith, not even in Israel!'

ακουσας δε ταυτα ο ιησους εθαυμασεν αυτον, και στραφεις τω ακολουθουντι αυτω οχλω ειπεν· λεγω υμιν, ουδε εν τω ισραηλ τοσαυτην πιστιν ευρον.

10And those who were sent, returning to the house, found the servant well who had been sick.

και υποστρεψαντες οι πεμφθεντες εις τον οικον ευρον τον ασθενουντα δουλον υγιαινοντα.

11Now it happened, the day after, that He went into a city called Nain; and many of His disciples went with Him, and a large crowd.

και εγενετο εν τω εξης επορευετο εις πολιν καλουμενην ναιν· και συνεπορευοντο αυτω οι μαθηται αυτου ικανοι και οχλος πολυς.

12And when He came near the gate of the city, behold, a dead man was being carried out, the only son of his mother; and she was a widow. And a large crowd from the city was with her.

ως δε ηγγισεν τη πυλη της πολεως, και ιδου εξεκομιζετο τεθνηκως υιος μονογενης τη μητρι αυτου, και αυτη ην χηρα, και οχλος της πολεως ικανος ην συν αυτη.

13When the Lord saw her, He had compassion on her and said to her, 'Do not weep.'

και ιδων αυτην ο κυριος εσπλαγχνισθη επ αυτη και ειπεν αυτη· μη κλαιε·

14Then He came and touched the open coffin, and those who carried him stood still. And He said, 'Young man, I say to you, arise.'

και προσελθων ηψατο της σορου, οι δε βασταζοντες εστησαν, και ειπεν· νεανισκε, σοι λεγω, εγερθητι.

15So he who was dead sat up and began to speak. And He presented him to his mother.

και ανεκαθισεν ο νεκρος και ηρξατο λαλειν, και εδωκεν αυτον τη μητρι αυτου.

16Then fear came upon all, and they glorified God, saying, 'A great prophet has risen up among us'; and, 'God has visited His people.'

ελαβεν δε φοβος παντας και εδοξαζον τον θεον, λεγοντες οτι προφητης μεγας εγηγερται εν ημιν, και οτι επεσκεψατο ο θεος τον λαον αυτου.

17And this report about Him went throughout all Judea and all the surrounding region.

και εξηλθεν ο λογος ουτος εν ολη τη ιουδαια περι αυτου και εν παση τη περιχωρω.

18Then the disciples of John reported to him concerning all these things.

και απηγγειλαν ιωαννη οι μαθηται αυτου περι παντων τουτων.

19And John, calling two of his disciples to him, sent them to Jesus, saying, 'Are You the Coming One, or do we look for another?'

και προσκαλεσαμενος δυο τινας των μαθητων αυτου ο ιωαννης επεμψεν προς τον ιησουν λεγων· συ ει ο ερχομενος η ετερον προσδοκωμεν;

20When the men had come to Him, they said, 'John the Baptist has sent us to You, saying, 'Are You the Coming One, or do we look for another?' '

παραγενομενοι δε προς αυτον οι ανδρες ειπον· ιωαννης ο βαπτιστης απεσταλκεν ημας προς σε λεγων· συ ει ο ερχομενος η ετερον προσδοκωμεν;

21And that very hour He cured many of infirmities, afflictions, and evil spirits; and to many blind He gave sight.

εν αυτη δε τη ωρα εθεραπευσεν πολλους απο νοσων και μαστιγων και πνευματων πονηρων, και τυφλοις πολλοις εχαρισατο το βλεπειν.

22Jesus answered and said to them, 'Go and tell John the things you have seen and heard: that the blind see, the lame walk, the lepers are cleansed, the deaf hear, the dead are raised, the poor have the gospel preached to them.

και αποκριθεις ο ιησους ειπεν αυτοις· πορευθεντες απαγγειλατε ιωαννη α ειδετε και ηκουσατε· τυφλοι αναβλεπουσιν και χωλοι περιπατουσιν, λεπροι καθαριζονται, κωφοι ακουουσιν, νεκροι εγειρονται, πτωχοι ευαγγελιζονται·

23And blessed is he who is not offended because of Me.'

και μακαριος εστιν ος εαν μη σκανδαλισθη εν εμοι.

24When the messengers of John had departed, He began to speak to the multitudes concerning John: 'What did you go out into the wilderness to see? A reed shaken by the wind?

απελθοντων δε των μαθητων ιωαννου ηρξατο λεγειν προς τους οχλους περι ιωαννου· τι εξεληλυθατε εις την ερημον θεασασθαι; καλαμον υπο ανεμου σαλευομενον;

25But what did you go out to see? A man clothed in soft garments? Indeed those who are gorgeously appareled and live in luxury are in kings' courts.

αλλα τι εξεληλυθατε ιδειν; ανθρωπον εν μαλακοις ιματιοις ημφιεσμενον; ιδου οι εν ιματισμω ενδοξω και τρυφη υπαρχοντες εν τοις βασιλειοις εισιν.

26But what did you go out to see? A prophet? Yes, I say to you, and more than a prophet.

αλλα τι εξεληλυθατε ιδειν; προφητην; ναι λεγω υμιν, και περισσοτερον προφητου.

27This is he of whom it is written: 'Behold, I send My messenger before Your face, Who will prepare Your way before You.'

ουτος εστιν περι ου γεγραπται, ιδου εγω αποστελλω τον αγγελον μου προ προσωπου σου, ος κατασκευασει την οδον σου εμπροσθεν σου.

28For I say to you, among those born of women there is not a greater prophet than John the Baptist; but he who is least in the kingdom of God is greater than he.'

λεγω [γαρ] υμιν, μειζων εν γεννητοις γυναικων προφητης ιωαννου του βαπτιστου ουδεις εστιν· ο δε μικροτερος εν τη βασιλεια του θεου μειζων αυτου εστιν.

29And when all the people heard Him, even the tax collectors justified God, having been baptized with the baptism of John.

και πας ο λαος ακουσας και οι τελωναι εδικαιωσαν τον θεον, βαπτισθεντες το βαπτισμα ιωαννου·

30But the Pharisees and lawyers rejected the will of God for themselves, not having been baptized by him.

οι δε φαρισαιοι και οι νομικοι την βουλην του θεου ηθετησαν εις εαυτους, μη βαπτισθεντες υπ αυτου.

31And the Lord said, 'To what then shall I liken the men of this generation, and what are they like?

τινι ουν ομοιωσω τους ανθρωπους της γενεας ταυτης, και τινι εισιν ομοιοι;

32They are like children sitting in the marketplace and calling to one another, saying: 'We played the flute for you, And you did not dance; We mourned to you, And you did not weep.'

ομοιοι εισιν παιδιοις τοις εν αγορα καθημενοις και προσφωνουσιν αλληλοις και λεγουσιν· ηυλησαμεν υμιν, και ουκ ωρχησασθε, εθρηνησαμεν υμιν, και ουκ εκλαυσατε.

33For John the Baptist came neither eating bread nor drinking wine, and you say, 'He has a demon.'

εληλυθεν γαρ ιωαννης ο βαπτιστης μητε αρτον εσθιων μητε οινον πινων, και λεγετε· δαιμονιον εχει.

34The Son of Man has come eating and drinking, and you say, 'Look, a glutton and a winebibber, a friend of tax collectors and sinners!'

εληλυθεν ο υιος του ανθρωπου εσθιων και πινων, και λεγετε· ιδου ανθρωπος φαγος και οινοποτης, φιλος τελωνων και αμαρτωλων.

35But wisdom is justified by all her children.'

και εδικαιωθη η σοφια απο των τεκνων αυτης παντων!

36Then one of the Pharisees asked Him to eat with him. And He went to the Pharisee's house, and sat down to eat.

ηρωτα δε τις αυτον των φαρισαιων ινα φαγη μετ αυτου· και εισελθων εις την οικιαν του φαρισαιου ανεκλιθη.

37And behold, a woman in the city who was a sinner, when she knew that Jesus sat at the table in the Pharisee's house, brought an alabaster flask of fragrant oil,

και ιδου γυνη εν τη πολει ητις ην αμαρτωλος, και επιγνουσα οτι ανακειται εν τη οικια του φαρισαιου, κομισασα αλαβαστρον μυρου

38and stood at His feet behind Him weeping; and she began to wash His feet with her tears, and wiped them with the hair of her head; and she kissed His feet and anointed them with the fragrant oil.

και στασα οπισω παρα τους ποδας αυτου κλαιουσα, ηρξατο βρεχειν τους ποδας αυτου τοις δακρυσιν και ταις θριξιν της κεφαλης αυτης εξεμασσεν, και κατεφιλει τους ποδας αυτου και ηλειφεν τω μυρω.

39Now when the Pharisee who had invited Him saw this, he spoke to himself, saying, 'This Man, if He were a prophet, would know who and what manner of woman this is who is touching Him, for she is a sinner.'

ιδων δε ο φαρισαιος ο καλεσας αυτον ειπεν εν εαυτω λεγων· ουτος ει ην προφητης, εγινωσκεν αν τις και ποταπη η γυνη ητις απτεται αυτου, οτι αμαρτωλος εστιν.

40And Jesus answered and said to him, 'Simon, I have something to say to you.'

και αποκριθεις ο ιησους ειπεν προς αυτον· σιμων, εχω σοι τι ειπειν. ο δε φησιν· διδασκαλε, ειπε.

41So he said, 'Teacher, say it.' 'There was a certain creditor who had two debtors. One owed five hundred denarii, and the other fifty.

δυο χρεωφειλεται ησαν δανειστη τινι· ο εις ωφειλεν δηναρια πεντακοσια, ο δε ετερος πεντηκοντα.

42And when they had nothing with which to repay, he freely forgave them both. Tell Me, therefore, which of them will love him more?'

μη εχοντων δε αυτων αποδουναι, αμφοτεροις εχαρισατο. τις ουν αυτων, ειπε, πλειον αυτον αγαπησει;

43Simon answered and said, 'I suppose the one whom he forgave more.'

αποκριθεις δε ο σιμων ειπεν· υπολαμβανω οτι ω το πλειον εχαρισατο. ο δε ειπεν αυτω· ορθως εκρινας.

44And He said to him, 'You have rightly judged.' Then He turned to the woman and said to Simon, 'Do you see this woman? I entered your house; you gave Me no water for My feet, but she has washed My feet with her tears and wiped them with the hair of her head.

και στραφεις προς την γυναικα τω σιμωνι εφη· βλεπεις ταυτην την γυναικα; εισηλθον σου εις την οικιαν, υδωρ επι τους ποδας μου ουκ εδωκας· αυτη δε τοις δακρυσιν εβρεξεν μου τους ποδας και ταις θριξιν της κεφαλης αυτης εξεμαξεν.

45You gave Me no kiss, but this woman has not ceased to kiss My feet since the time I came in.

φιλημα μοι ουκ εδωκας· αυτη δε αφ ης εισηλθεν ου διελιπεν καταφιλουσα μου τους ποδας.

46You did not anoint My head with oil, but this woman has anointed My feet with fragrant oil.

ελαιω την κεφαλην μου ουκ ηλειψας· αυτη δε μυρω ηλειψεν μου τους ποδας.

47Therefore I say to you, her sins, which are many, are forgiven, for she loved much. But to whom little is forgiven, the same loves little.'

ου χαριν λεγω σοι, αφεωνται αι αμαρτιαι αυτης αι πολλαι, οτι ηγαπησεν πολυ· ω δε ολιγον αφιεται, ολιγον αγαπα.

48Then He said to her, 'Your sins are forgiven.'

ειπεν δε αυτη· αφεωνται σου αι αμαρτιαι.

49And those who sat at the table with Him began to say to themselves, 'Who is this who even forgives sins?'

και ηρξαντο οι συνανακειμενοι λεγειν εν εαυτοις· τις ουτος εστιν ος και αμαρτιας αφιησιν;

50Then He said to the woman, 'Your faith has saved you. Go in peace.'

ειπεν δε προς την γυναικα· η πιστις σου σεσωκεν σε· πορευου εις ειρηνην.
