New Testament

Mark 11

1Now when they drew near Jerusalem, to Bethphage and Bethany, at the Mount of Olives, He sent two of His disciples;

και οτε εγγιζουσιν εις ιερουσαλημ εις βηθσφαγη και βηθανιαν προς το ορος των ελαιων, αποστελλει δυο των μαθητων αυτου

2and He said to them, 'Go into the village opposite you; and as soon as you have entered it you will find a colt tied, on which no one has sat.

και λεγει αυτοις· υπαγετε εις την κωμην την κατεναντι υμων, και ευθεως εισπορευομενοι εις αυτην ευρησετε πωλον δεδεμενον, εφ ον ουδεις ανθρωπων κεκαθικεν· λυσαντες αυτον αγαγετε.

3Loose it and bring it. And if anyone says to you, 'Why are you doing this?' say, 'The Lord has need of it,' and immediately he will send it here.'

και εαν τις υμιν ειπη· τι ποιειτε τουτο; ειπατε οτι ο κυριος αυτου χρειαν εχει, και ευθεως αυτον αποστελλει παλιν ωδε.

4So they went their way, and found the colt tied by the door outside on the street, and they loosed it.

απηλθον δε και ευρον τον πωλον δεδεμενον προς την θυραν εξω επι του αμφοδου, και λυουσιν αυτον.

5But some of those who stood there said to them, 'What are you doing, loosing the colt?'

και τινες των εκει εστηκοτων ελεγον αυτοις· τι ποιειτε λυοντες τον πωλον;

6And they spoke to them just as Jesus had commanded. So they let them go.

οι δε ειπον αυτοις καθως ενετειλατο ο ιησους, και αφηκαν αυτους.

7Then they brought the colt to Jesus and threw their clothes on it, and He sat on it.

και ηγαγον τον πωλον προς τον ιησουν και επεβαλον αυτω τα ιματια αυτων, και εκαθισεν επ αυτω.

8And many spread their clothes on the road, and others cut down leafy branches from the trees and spread them on the road.

πολλοι δε τα ιματια αυτων εστρωσαν εις την οδον, αλλοι δε στοιβαδας εκοπτον εκ των δενδρων και εστρωννυον εις την οδον.

9Then those who went before and those who followed cried out, saying: 'Hosanna! 'Blessed is He who comes in the name of the LORD!'

και οι προαγοντες και οι ακολουθουντες εκραζον λεγοντες· ωσαννα, ευλογημενος ο ερχομενος εν ονοματι κυριου.

10Blessed is the kingdom of our father David That comes in the name of the Lord! Hosanna in the highest!'

ευλογημενη η ερχομενη βασιλεια εν ονοματι κυριου του πατρος ημων δαυιδ· ωσαννα εν τοις υψιστοις.

11And Jesus went into Jerusalem and into the temple. So when He had looked around at all things, as the hour was already late, He went out to Bethany with the twelve.

και εισηλθεν εις ιεροσολυμα ο ιησους και εις το ιερον· και περιβλεψαμενος παντα, οψιας ηδη ουσης της ωρας, εξηλθεν εις βηθανιαν μετα των δωδεκα.

12Now the next day, when they had come out from Bethany, He was hungry.

και τη επαυριον εξελθοντων αυτων απο βηθανιας επεινασεν·

13And seeing from afar a fig tree having leaves, He went to see if perhaps He would find something on it. When He came to it, He found nothing but leaves, for it was not the season for figs.

και ιδων συκην απο μακροθεν εχουσαν φυλλα, ηλθεν ει αρα τι ευρησει εν αυτη· και ελθων επ αυτην ουδεν ευρεν ει μη φυλλα· ου γαρ ην καιρος συκων.

14In response Jesus said to it, 'Let no one eat fruit from you ever again.'

και αποκριθεις ειπεν αυτη· μηκετι εκ σου εις τον αιωνα μηδεις καρπον φαγοι. και ηκουον οι μαθηται αυτου.

15And His disciples heard it. So they came to Jerusalem. Then Jesus went into the temple and began to drive out those who bought and sold in the temple, and overturned the tables of the money changers and the seats of those who sold doves.

και ερχονται παλιν εις ιεροσολυμα· και εισελθων ο ιησους εις το ιερον ηρξατο εκβαλλειν τους πωλουντας και τους αγοραζοντας εν τω ιερω, και τας τραπεζας των κολλυβιστων και τας καθεδρας των πωλουντων τας περιστερας κατεστρεψεν,

16And He would not allow anyone to carry wares through the temple.

και ουκ ηφιεν ινα τις διενεγκη σκευος δια του ιερου,

17Then He taught, saying to them, 'Is it not written, 'My house shall be called a house of prayer for all nations'? But you have made it a 'den of thieves.' '

και εδιδασκεν λεγων αυτοις· ου γεγραπται οτι ο οικος μου οικος προσευχης κληθησεται πασιν τοις εθνεσιν; υμεις δε αυτον εποιησατε σπηλαιον ληστων.

18And the scribes and chief priests heard it and sought how they might destroy Him; for they feared Him, because all the people were astonished at His teaching.

και ηκουσαν οι γραμματεις και οι φαρισαιοι και οι αρχιερεις, και εζητουν πως αυτον απολεσωσιν· εφοβουντο γαρ αυτον, οτι πας ο οχλος εξεπλησσετο επι τη διδαχη αυτου.

19When evening had come, He went out of the city.

και οτε οψε εγενετο, εξεπορευετο εξω της πολεως.

20Now in the morning, as they passed by, they saw the fig tree dried up from the roots.

και παραπορευομενοι πρωι ειδον την συκην εξηραμμενην εκ ριζων.

21And Peter, remembering, said to Him, 'Rabbi, look! The fig tree which You cursed has withered away.'

και αναμνησθεις ο πετρος λεγει αυτω· ραββι, ιδε η συκη ην κατηρασω εξηρανται.

22So Jesus answered and said to them, 'Have faith in God.

και αποκριθεις ο ιησους λεγει αυτοις· εχετε πιστιν θεου.

23For assuredly, I say to you, whoever says to this mountain, 'Be removed and be cast into the sea,' and does not doubt in his heart, but believes that those things he says will be done, he will have whatever he says.

αμην γαρ λεγω υμιν οτι ος αν ειπη τω ορει τουτω, αρθητι και βληθητι εις την θαλασσαν, και μη διακριθη εν τη καρδια αυτου, αλλα πιστευσει οτι α λεγει γινεται, εσται αυτω ο εαν ειπη.

24Therefore I say to you, whatever things you ask when you pray, believe that you receive them, and you will have them.

δια τουτο λεγω υμιν, παντα οσα αν προσευχομενοι αιτεισθε, πιστευετε οτι λαμβανετε, και εσται υμιν.

25'And whenever you stand praying, if you have anything against anyone, forgive him, that your Father in heaven may also forgive you your trespasses.

και οταν στηκητε προσευχομενοι, αφιετε ει τι εχετε κατα τινος, ινα και ο πατηρ υμων ο εν τοις ουρανοις αφη υμιν τα παραπτωματα υμων.

26But if you do not forgive, neither will your Father in heaven forgive your trespasses.'

ει δε υμεις ουκ αφιετε, ουδε ο πατηρ υμων αφησει τα παραπτωματα υμων.

27Then they came again to Jerusalem. And as He was walking in the temple, the chief priests, the scribes, and the elders came to Him.

και ερχονται παλιν εις ιεροσολυμα· και εν τω ιερω περιπατουντος αυτου ερχονται προς αυτον οι αρχιερεις και οι γραμματεις και οι πρεσβυτεροι

28And they said to Him, 'By what authority are You doing these things? And who gave You this authority to do these things?'

και λεγουσιν αυτω· εν ποια εξουσια ταυτα ποιεις; η τις σοι εδωκεν την εξουσιαν ταυτην ινα ταυτα ποιης;

29But Jesus answered and said to them, 'I also will ask you one question; then answer Me, and I will tell you by what authority I do these things:

ο δε ιησους αποκριθεις ειπεν αυτοις· επερωτησω υμας καγω ενα λογον, και αποκριθητε μοι, και ερω υμιν εν ποια εξουσια ταυτα ποιω.

30The baptism of John—was it from heaven or from men? Answer Me.'

το βαπτισμα ιωαννου εξ ουρανου ην η εξ ανθρωπων; αποκριθητε μοι.

31And they reasoned among themselves, saying, 'If we say, 'From heaven,' He will say, 'Why then did you not believe him?'

και ελογιζοντο προς εαυτους λεγοντες· εαν ειπωμεν, εξ ουρανου, ερει· διατι ουν ουκ επιστευσατε αυτω;

32But if we say, 'From men' '—they feared the people, for all counted John to have been a prophet indeed.

αλλα ειπωμεν, εξ ανθρωπων; — εφοβουντο τον λαον· απαντες γαρ ειχον τον ιωαννην οτι προφητης ην.

33So they answered and said to Jesus, 'We do not know.' And Jesus answered and said to them, 'Neither will I tell you by what authority I do these things.'

και αποκριθεντες λεγουσιν τω ιησου· ουκ οιδαμεν. και ο ιησους αποκριθεις λεγει αυτοις· ουδε εγω λεγω υμιν εν ποια εξουσια ταυτα ποιω.
