Matthew 5

1And seeing the multitudes, He went up on a mountain, and when He was seated His disciples came to Him.

ιδων δε τους οχλους ανεβη εις το ορος, και καθισαντος αυτου προσηλθον αυτω οι μαθηται αυτου,

2Then He opened His mouth and taught them, saying:

και ανοιξας το στομα αυτου εδιδασκεν αυτους λεγων·

3'Blessed are the poor in spirit, For theirs is the kingdom of heaven.

μακαριοι οι πτωχοι τω πνευματι, οτι αυτων εστιν η βασιλεια των ουρανων.

4Blessed are those who mourn, For they shall be comforted.

μακαριοι οι πενθουντες, οτι αυτοι παρακληθησονται.

5Blessed are the meek, For they shall inherit the earth.

μακαριοι οι πραεις, οτι αυτοι κληρονομησουσιν την γην.

6Blessed are those who hunger and thirst for righteousness, For they shall be filled.

μακαριοι οι πεινωντες και διψωντες την δικαιοσυνην, οτι αυτοι χορτασθησονται.

7Blessed are the merciful, For they shall obtain mercy.

μακαριοι οι ελεημονες, οτι αυτοι ελεηθησονται.

8Blessed are the pure in heart, For they shall see God.

μακαριοι οι καθαροι τη καρδια, οτι αυτοι τον θεον οψονται.

9Blessed are the peacemakers, For they shall be called sons of God.

μακαριοι οι ειρηνοποιοι, οτι αυτοι υιοι θεου κληθησονται.

10Blessed are those who are persecuted for righteousness' sake, For theirs is the kingdom of heaven.

μακαριοι οι δεδιωγμενοι ενεκεν δικαιοσυνης, οτι αυτων εστιν η βασιλεια των ουρανων.

11'Blessed are you when they revile and persecute you, and say all kinds of evil against you falsely for My sake.

μακαριοι εστε οταν ονειδισωσιν υμας και διωξωσιν και ειπωσιν παν πονηρον ρημα καθ υμων ψευδομενοι ενεκεν εμου.

12Rejoice and be exceedingly glad, for great is your reward in heaven, for so they persecuted the prophets who were before you.

χαιρετε και αγαλλιασθε, οτι ο μισθος υμων πολυς εν τοις ουρανοις· ουτως γαρ εδιωξαν τους προφητας τους προ υμων.

13'You are the salt of the earth; but if the salt loses its flavor, how shall it be seasoned? It is then good for nothing but to be thrown out and trampled underfoot by men.

υμεις εστε το αλας της γης· εαν δε το αλας μωρανθη, εν τινι αλισθησεται; εις ουδεν ισχυει ετι ει μη βληθηναι εξω και καταπατεισθαι υπο των ανθρωπων.

14'You are the light of the world. A city that is set on a hill cannot be hidden.

υμεις εστε το φως του κοσμου. ου δυναται πολις κρυβηναι επανω ορους κειμενη·

15Nor do they light a lamp and put it under a basket, but on a lampstand, and it gives light to all who are in the house.

ουδε καιουσιν λυχνον και τιθεασιν αυτον υπο τον μοδιον, αλλ επι την λυχνιαν, και λαμπει πασιν τοις εν τη οικια.

16Let your light so shine before men, that they may see your good works and glorify your Father in heaven.

ουτως λαμψατω το φως υμων εμπροσθεν των ανθρωπων, οπως ιδωσιν υμων τα καλα εργα και δοξασωσιν τον πατερα υμων τον εν τοις ουρανοις.

17'Do not think that I came to destroy the Law or the Prophets. I did not come to destroy but to fulfill.

μη νομισητε οτι ηλθον καταλυσαι τον νομον η τους προφητας· ουκ ηλθον καταλυσαι, αλλα πληρωσαι.

18For assuredly, I say to you, till heaven and earth pass away, one jot or one tittle will by no means pass from the law till all is fulfilled.

αμην γαρ λεγω υμιν, εως αν παρελθη ο ουρανος και η γη, ιωτα εν η μια κεραια ου μη παρελθη απο του νομου εως αν παντα γενηται.

19Whoever therefore breaks one of the least of these commandments, and teaches men so, shall be called least in the kingdom of heaven; but whoever does and teaches them, he shall be called great in the kingdom of heaven.

ος εαν ουν λυση μιαν των εντολων τουτων των ελαχιστων και διδαξη ουτως τους ανθρωπους, ελαχιστος κληθησεται εν τη βασιλεια των ουρανων· ος δ αν ποιηση και διδαξη, ουτος μεγας κληθησεται εν τη βασιλεια των ουρανων.

20For I say to you, that unless your righteousness exceeds the righteousness of the scribes and Pharisees, you will by no means enter the kingdom of heaven.

λεγω γαρ υμιν οτι εαν μη περισσευση η δικαιοσυνη υμων πλειον των γραμματεων και φαρισαιων, ου μη εισελθητε εις την βασιλειαν των ουρανων.

21'You have heard that it was said to those of old, 'You shall not murder, and whoever murders will be in danger of the judgment.'

ηκουσατε οτι ερρεθη τοις αρχαιοις, ου φονευσεις· ος δ αν φονευση, ενοχος εσται τη κρισει.

22But I say to you that whoever is angry with his brother without a cause shall be in danger of the judgment. And whoever says to his brother, 'Raca!' shall be in danger of the council. But whoever says, 'You fool!' shall be in danger of hell fire.

εγω δε λεγω υμιν οτι πας ο οργιζομενος τω αδελφω αυτου εικη ενοχος εσται τη κρισει· ος δ αν ειπη τω αδελφω αυτου ρακα, ενοχος εσται τω συνεδριω· ος δ αν ειπη μωρε, ενοχος εσται εις την γεενναν του πυρος.

23Therefore if you bring your gift to the altar, and there remember that your brother has something against you,

εαν ουν προσφερης το δωρον σου επι το θυσιαστηριον κακει μνησθης οτι ο αδελφος σου εχει τι κατα σου,

24leave your gift there before the altar, and go your way. First be reconciled to your brother, and then come and offer your gift.

αφες εκει το δωρον σου εμπροσθεν του θυσιαστηριου, και υπαγε πρωτον διαλλαγηθι τω αδελφω σου, και τοτε ελθων προσφερε το δωρον σου.

25Agree with your adversary quickly, while you are on the way with him, lest your adversary deliver you to the judge, the judge hand you over to the officer, and you be thrown into prison.

ισθι ευνοων τω αντιδικω σου ταχυ εως οτου ει εν τη οδω μετ αυτου, μηποτε σε παραδω ο αντιδικος τω κριτη και ο κριτης σε παραδω τω υπηρετη, και εις φυλακην βληθηση·

26Assuredly, I say to you, you will by no means get out of there till you have paid the last penny.

αμην λεγω σοι, ου μη εξελθης εκειθεν εως ου αποδως τον εσχατον κοδραντην.

27'You have heard that it was said to those of old, 'You shall not commit adultery.'

ηκουσατε οτι ερρεθη τοις αρχαιοις, ου μοιχευσεις.

28But I say to you that whoever looks at a woman to lust for her has already committed adultery with her in his heart.

εγω δε λεγω υμιν οτι πας ο βλεπων γυναικα προς το επιθυμησαι αυτην ηδη εμοιχευσεν αυτην εν τη καρδια αυτου.

29If your right eye causes you to sin, pluck it out and cast it from you; for it is more profitable for you that one of your members perish, than for your whole body to be cast into hell.

ει δε ο οφθαλμος σου ο δεξιος σκανδαλιζει σε, εξελε αυτον και βαλε απο σου· συμφερει γαρ σοι ινα αποληται εν των μελων σου και μη ολον το σωμα σου βληθη εις γεενναν.

30And if your right hand causes you to sin, cut it off and cast it from you; for it is more profitable for you that one of your members perish, than for your whole body to be cast into hell.

και ει η δεξια σου χειρ σκανδαλιζει σε, εκκοψον αυτην και βαλε απο σου· συμφερει γαρ σοι ινα αποληται εν των μελων σου και μη ολον το σωμα σου βληθη εις γεενναν.

31'Furthermore it has been said, 'Whoever divorces his wife, let him give her a certificate of divorce.'

ερρεθη δε· ος αν απολυση την γυναικα αυτου, δοτω αυτη αποστασιον.

32But I say to you that whoever divorces his wife for any reason except sexual immorality causes her to commit adultery; and whoever marries a woman who is divorced commits adultery.

εγω δε λεγω υμιν οτι ος αν απολυση την γυναικα αυτου παρεκτος λογου πορνειας, ποιει αυτην μοιχασθαι, και ος εαν απολελυμενην γαμηση, μοιχαται.

33'Again you have heard that it was said to those of old, 'You shall not swear falsely, but shall perform your oaths to the Lord.'

παλιν ηκουσατε οτι ερρεθη τοις αρχαιοις, ουκ επιορκησεις, αποδωσεις δε τω κυριω τους ορκους σου.

34But I say to you, do not swear at all: neither by heaven, for it is God's throne;

εγω δε λεγω υμιν μη ομοσαι ολως· μητε εν τω ουρανω, οτι θρονος εστιν του θεου·

35nor by the earth, for it is His footstool; nor by Jerusalem, for it is the city of the great King.

μητε εν τη γη, οτι υποποδιον εστιν των ποδων αυτου· μητε εις ιεροσολυμα, οτι πολις εστιν του μεγαλου βασιλεως·

36Nor shall you swear by your head, because you cannot make one hair white or black.

μητε εν τη κεφαλη σου ομοσης, οτι ου δυνασαι μιαν τριχα λευκην η μελαιναν ποιησαι.

37But let your 'Yes' be 'Yes,' and your 'No,' 'No.' For whatever is more than these is from the evil one.

εστω δε ο λογος υμων ναι ναι, ου ου· το δε περισσον τουτων εκ του πονηρου εστιν.

38'You have heard that it was said, 'An eye for an eye and a tooth for a tooth.'

ηκουσατε οτι ερρεθη, οφθαλμον αντι οφθαλμου και οδοντα αντι οδοντος.

39But I tell you not to resist an evil person. But whoever slaps you on your right cheek, turn the other to him also.

εγω δε λεγω υμιν μη αντιστηναι τω πονηρω· αλλ οστις σε ραπισει επι την δεξιαν σιαγονα, στρεψον αυτω και την αλλην·

40If anyone wants to sue you and take away your tunic, let him have your cloak also.

και τω θελοντι σοι κριθηναι και τον χιτωνα σου λαβειν, αφες αυτω και το ιματιον·

41And whoever compels you to go one mile, go with him two.

και οστις σε αγγαρευσει μιλιον εν, υπαγε μετ αυτου δυο·

42Give to him who asks you, and from him who wants to borrow from you do not turn away.

τω αιτουντι σε διδου και τον θελοντα απο σου δανεισασθαι μη αποστραφης.

43'You have heard that it was said, 'You shall love your neighbor and hate your enemy.'

ηκουσατε οτι ερρεθη, αγαπησεις τον πλησιον σου και μισησεις τον εχθρον σου.

44But I say to you, love your enemies, bless those who curse you, do good to those who hate you, and pray for those who spitefully use you and persecute you,

εγω δε λεγω υμιν, αγαπατε τους εχθρους υμων, ευλογειτε τους καταρωμενους υμας, καλως ποιειτε τοις μισουσιν υμας και προσευχεσθε υπερ των επηρεαζοντων υμας και διωκοντων υμας,

45that you may be sons of your Father in heaven; for He makes His sun rise on the evil and on the good, and sends rain on the just and on the unjust.

οπως γενησθε υιοι του πατρος υμων του εν ουρανοις, οτι τον ηλιον αυτου ανατελλει επι πονηρους και αγαθους και βρεχει επι δικαιους και αδικους.

46For if you love those who love you, what reward have you? Do not even the tax collectors do the same?

εαν γαρ αγαπησητε τους αγαπωντας υμας, τινα μισθον εχετε; ουχι και οι τελωναι το αυτο ποιουσιν;

47And if you greet your brethren only, what do you do more than others? Do not even the tax collectors do so?

και εαν ασπασησθε τους φιλους υμων μονον, τι περισσον ποιειτε; ουχι και οι τελωναι ουτως ποιουσιν;

48Therefore you shall be perfect, just as your Father in heaven is perfect.

εσεσθε ουν υμεις τελειοι, ωσπερ ο πατηρ υμων ο εν τοις ουρανοις τελειος εστιν.
