Matthew 11

GNT

1 καὶ ἐγένετο ὅτε ἐτέλεσεν ὁ ἰησοῦς διατάσσων τοῖς δώδεκα μαθηταῖς αὐτοῦ, μετέβη ἐκεῖθεν τοῦ διδάσκειν καὶ κηρύσσειν ἐν ταῖς πόλεσιν αὐτῶν.

2 ὁ δὲ ἰωάννης ἀκούσας ἐν τῶ δεσμωτηρίῳ τὰ ἔργα τοῦ χριστοῦ πέμψας διὰ τῶν μαθητῶν αὐτοῦ

3 εἶπεν αὐτῶ, σὺ εἶ ὁ ἐρχόμενος ἢ ἕτερον προσδοκῶμεν;

4 καὶ ἀποκριθεὶς ὁ ἰησοῦς εἶπεν αὐτοῖς, πορευθέντες ἀπαγγείλατε ἰωάννῃ ἃ ἀκούετε καὶ βλέπετε·

5 τυφλοὶ ἀναβλέπουσιν καὶ χωλοὶ περιπατοῦσιν, λεπροὶ καθαρίζονται καὶ κωφοὶ ἀκούουσιν, καὶ νεκροὶ ἐγείρονται καὶ πτωχοὶ εὐαγγελίζονται·

6 καὶ μακάριός ἐστιν ὃς ἐὰν μὴ σκανδαλισθῇ ἐν ἐμοί.

7 τούτων δὲ πορευομένων ἤρξατο ὁ ἰησοῦς λέγειν τοῖς ὄχλοις περὶ ἰωάννου, τί ἐξήλθατε εἰς τὴν ἔρημον θεάσασθαι; κάλαμον ὑπὸ ἀνέμου σαλευόμενον;

8 ἀλλὰ τί ἐξήλθατε ἰδεῖν; ἄνθρωπον ἐν μαλακοῖς ἠμφιεσμένον; ἰδοὺ οἱ τὰ μαλακὰ φοροῦντες ἐν τοῖς οἴκοις τῶν βασιλέων εἰσίν.

9 ἀλλὰ τί ἐξήλθατε ἰδεῖν; προφήτην; ναί, λέγω ὑμῖν, καὶ περισσότερον προφήτου.

10 οὖτός ἐστιν περὶ οὖ γέγραπται, ἰδοὺ ἐγὼ ἀποστέλλω τὸν ἄγγελόν μου πρὸ προσώπου σου, ὃς κατασκευάσει τὴν ὁδόν σου ἔμπροσθέν σου.

11 ἀμὴν λέγω ὑμῖν, οὐκ ἐγήγερται ἐν γεννητοῖς γυναικῶν μείζων ἰωάννου τοῦ βαπτιστοῦ· ὁ δὲ μικρότερος ἐν τῇ βασιλείᾳ τῶν οὐρανῶν μείζων αὐτοῦ ἐστιν.

12 ἀπὸ δὲ τῶν ἡμερῶν ἰωάννου τοῦ βαπτιστοῦ ἕως ἄρτι ἡ βασιλεία τῶν οὐρανῶν βιάζεται, καὶ βιασταὶ ἁρπάζουσιν αὐτήν.

13 πάντες γὰρ οἱ προφῆται καὶ ὁ νόμος ἕως ἰωάννου ἐπροφήτευσαν·

14 καὶ εἰ θέλετε δέξασθαι, αὐτός ἐστιν ἠλίας ὁ μέλλων ἔρχεσθαι.

15 ὁ ἔχων ὦτα ἀκουέτω.

16 τίνι δὲ ὁμοιώσω τὴν γενεὰν ταύτην; ὁμοία ἐστὶν παιδίοις καθημένοις ἐν ταῖς ἀγοραῖς ἃ προσφωνοῦντα τοῖς ἑτέροις

17 λέγουσιν, ηὐλήσαμεν ὑμῖν καὶ οὐκ ὠρχήσασθε· ἐθρηνήσαμεν καὶ οὐκ ἐκόψασθε.

18 ἦλθεν γὰρ ἰωάννης μήτε ἐσθίων μήτε πίνων, καὶ λέγουσιν, δαιμόνιον ἔχει·

19 ἦλθεν ὁ υἱὸς τοῦ ἀνθρώπου ἐσθίων καὶ πίνων, καὶ λέγουσιν, ἰδοὺ ἄνθρωπος φάγος καὶ οἰνοπότης, τελωνῶν φίλος καὶ ἁμαρτωλῶν. καὶ ἐδικαιώθη ἡ σοφία ἀπὸ τῶν ἔργων αὐτῆς.

20 τότε ἤρξατο ὀνειδίζειν τὰς πόλεις ἐν αἷς ἐγένοντο αἱ πλεῖσται δυνάμεις αὐτοῦ, ὅτι οὐ μετενόησαν·

21 οὐαί σοι, χοραζίν· οὐαί σοι, βηθσαϊδά· ὅτι εἰ ἐν τύρῳ καὶ σιδῶνι ἐγένοντο αἱ δυνάμεις αἱ γενόμεναι ἐν ὑμῖν, πάλαι ἂν ἐν σάκκῳ καὶ σποδῶ μετενόησαν.

22 πλὴν λέγω ὑμῖν, τύρῳ καὶ σιδῶνι ἀνεκτότερον ἔσται ἐν ἡμέρᾳ κρίσεως ἢ ὑμῖν.

23 καὶ σύ, καφαρναούμ, μὴ ἕως οὐρανοῦ ὑψωθήσῃ; ἕως ᾅδου καταβήσῃ. ὅτι εἰ ἐν σοδόμοις ἐγενήθησαν αἱ δυνάμεις αἱ γενόμεναι ἐν σοί, ἔμεινεν ἂν μέχρι τῆς σήμερον.

24 πλὴν λέγω ὑμῖν ὅτι γῇ σοδόμων ἀνεκτότερον ἔσται ἐν ἡμέρᾳ κρίσεως ἢ σοί.

25 ἐν ἐκείνῳ τῶ καιρῶ ἀποκριθεὶς ὁ ἰησοῦς εἶπεν, ἐξομολογοῦμαί σοι, πάτερ, κύριε τοῦ οὐρανοῦ καὶ τῆς γῆς, ὅτι ἔκρυψας ταῦτα ἀπὸ σοφῶν καὶ συνετῶν καὶ ἀπεκάλυψας αὐτὰ νηπίοις·

26 ναί, ὁ πατήρ, ὅτι οὕτως εὐδοκία ἐγένετο ἔμπροσθέν σου.

27 πάντα μοι παρεδόθη ὑπὸ τοῦ πατρός μου, καὶ οὐδεὶς ἐπιγινώσκει τὸν υἱὸν εἰ μὴ ὁ πατήρ, οὐδὲ τὸν πατέρα τις ἐπιγινώσκει εἰ μὴ ὁ υἱὸς καὶ ᾧ ἐὰν βούληται ὁ υἱὸς ἀποκαλύψαι.

28 δεῦτε πρός με πάντες οἱ κοπιῶντες καὶ πεφορτισμένοι, κἀγὼ ἀναπαύσω ὑμᾶς.

29 ἄρατε τὸν ζυγόν μου ἐφ᾽ ὑμᾶς καὶ μάθετε ἀπ᾽ ἐμοῦ, ὅτι πραΰς εἰμι καὶ ταπεινὸς τῇ καρδίᾳ, καὶ εὑρήσετε ἀνάπαυσιν ταῖς ψυχαῖς ὑμῶν·

30 ὁ γὰρ ζυγός μου χρηστὸς καὶ τὸ φορτίον μου ἐλαφρόν ἐστιν.

1  And²⁵³² it came to pass,¹⁰⁹⁶ when³⁷⁵³ Jesus²⁴²⁴ had made an end⁵⁰⁵⁵ of commanding¹²⁹⁹ his⁸⁴⁸ twelve¹⁴²⁷ disciples,³¹⁰¹ he departed³³²⁷ thence¹⁵⁶⁴ to teach¹³²¹ and²⁵³² to preach²⁷⁸⁴ in¹⁷²² their⁸⁴⁶ cities.⁴¹⁷²

2  Now¹¹⁶¹ when John²⁴⁹¹ had heard¹⁹¹ in¹⁷²² the³⁵⁸⁸ prison¹²⁰¹ the³⁵⁸⁸ works²⁰⁴¹ of Christ,⁵⁵⁴⁷ he sent³⁹⁹² two¹⁴¹⁷ of his⁸⁴⁸ disciples,³¹⁰¹

3  And said²⁰³⁶ unto him,⁸⁴⁶ Art¹⁴⁸⁸ thou⁴⁷⁷¹ he that should come,²⁰⁶⁴ or²²²⁸ do we look⁴³²⁸ for another?²⁰⁸⁷

4  ²⁵³² Jesus²⁴²⁴ answered⁶¹¹ and said²⁰³⁶ unto them,⁸⁴⁶ Go⁴¹⁹⁸ and show John again^{518 2491} those things³⁷³⁹ which ye do hear¹⁹¹ and²⁵³² see:⁹⁹¹

5  The blind⁵¹⁸⁵ receive their sight,³⁰⁸ and²⁵³² the lame⁵⁵⁶⁰ walk,⁴⁰⁴³ the lepers³⁰¹⁵ are cleansed,²⁵¹¹ and²⁵³² the deaf²⁹⁷⁴ hear,¹⁹¹ the dead³⁴⁹⁸ are raised up,¹⁴⁵³ and²⁵³² the poor⁴⁴³⁴ have the gospel preached to them.²⁰⁹⁷

6  And²⁵³² blessed³¹⁰⁷ is²⁰⁷⁶ he, whosoever^{3739 1437} shall not³³⁶¹ be offended⁴⁶²⁴ in¹⁷²² me.¹⁶⁹⁸

7  And¹¹⁶¹ as they⁵¹³⁰ departed,⁴¹⁹⁸ Jesus²⁴²⁴ began⁷⁵⁶ to say³⁰⁰⁴ unto the³⁵⁸⁸ multitudes³⁷⁹³ concerning⁴⁰¹² John,²⁴⁹¹ What⁵¹⁰¹ went ye out¹⁸³¹ into¹⁵¹⁹ the³⁵⁸⁸ wilderness²⁰⁴⁸ to see?²³⁰⁰ A reed²⁵⁶³ shaken⁴⁵³¹ with⁵²⁵⁹ the wind?⁴¹⁷

8  But²³⁵ what⁵¹⁰¹ went ye out¹⁸³¹ for to see?¹⁴⁹² A man⁴⁴⁴ clothed²⁹⁴ in¹⁷²² soft³¹²⁰ raiment?²⁴⁴⁰ behold,²⁴⁰⁰ they that wear⁵⁴⁰⁹ soft³¹²⁰ clothing are¹⁵²⁶ in¹⁷²² kings'⁹³⁵ houses.³⁶²⁴

9  But²³⁵ what⁵¹⁰¹ went ye out¹⁸³¹ for to see?¹⁴⁹² A prophet?⁴³⁹⁶ yea,³⁴⁸³ I say³⁰⁰⁴ unto you,⁵²¹³ and²⁵³² more⁴⁰⁵⁵ than a prophet.⁴³⁹⁶

10  For¹⁰⁶³ this³⁷⁷⁸ is²⁰⁷⁶ he, of⁴⁰¹² whom³⁷³⁹ it is written,¹¹²⁵ Behold,²⁴⁰⁰ I¹⁴⁷³ send⁶⁴⁹ my³⁴⁵⁰ messenger³² before⁴²⁵³ thy⁴⁶⁷⁵ face,⁴³⁸³ which³⁷³⁹ shall prepare²⁶⁸⁰ thy⁴⁶⁷⁵ way³⁵⁹⁸ before¹⁷¹⁵ thee.⁴⁶⁷⁵

11  Verily²⁸¹ I say³⁰⁰⁴ unto you,⁵²¹³ Among¹⁷²² them that are born¹⁰⁸⁴ of women¹¹³⁵ there hath not³⁷⁵⁶ risen¹⁴⁵³ a greater³¹⁸⁷ than John²⁴⁹¹ the³⁵⁸⁸ Baptist:⁹¹⁰ notwithstanding¹¹⁶¹ he that is least³³⁹⁸ in¹⁷²² the³⁵⁸⁸ kingdom⁹³² of heaven³⁷⁷² is²⁰⁷⁶ greater³¹⁸⁷ than he.⁸⁴⁶

12  And¹¹⁶¹ from⁵⁷⁵ the³⁵⁸⁸ days²²⁵⁰ of John²⁴⁹¹ the³⁵⁸⁸ Baptist⁹¹⁰ until²¹⁹³ now⁷³⁷ the³⁵⁸⁸ kingdom⁹³² of heaven³⁷⁷² suffereth violence,⁹⁷¹ and²⁵³² the violent⁹⁷³ take it by force.^{726 846}

13  For¹⁰⁶³ all³⁹⁵⁶ the³⁵⁸⁸ prophets⁴³⁹⁶ and²⁵³² the³⁵⁸⁸ law³⁵⁵¹ prophesied⁴³⁹⁵ until²¹⁹³ John.²⁴⁹¹

14  And²⁵³² if¹⁴⁸⁷ ye will²³⁰⁹ receive¹²⁰⁹ it, this⁸⁴⁶ is²⁰⁷⁶ Elijah,²²⁴³ which was³¹⁹⁵ for to come.²⁰⁶⁴

15  He that hath²¹⁹² ears³⁷⁷⁵ to hear,¹⁹¹ let him hear.¹⁹¹

16  But¹¹⁶¹ whereunto⁵¹⁰¹ shall I liken³⁶⁶⁶ this⁵⁰²⁶ generation?¹⁰⁷⁴ It is²⁰⁷⁶ like unto³⁶⁶⁴ children³⁸⁰⁸ sitting²⁵²¹ in¹⁷²² the markets,⁵⁸ and²⁵³² calling⁴³⁷⁷ unto their⁸⁴⁸ fellows,²⁰⁸³

17  And²⁵³² saying,³⁰⁰⁴ We have piped⁸³² unto you,⁵²¹³ and²⁵³² ye have not³⁷⁵⁶ danced;³⁷³⁸ we have mourned²³⁵⁴ unto you,⁵²¹³ and²⁵³² ye have not³⁷⁵⁶ lamented.²⁸⁷⁵

18  For¹⁰⁶³ John²⁴⁹¹ came²⁰⁶⁴ neither³³⁸³ eating²⁰⁶⁸ nor³³⁸³ drinking,⁴⁰⁹⁵ and²⁵³² they say,³⁰⁰⁴ He hath²¹⁹² a devil.¹¹⁴⁰

19  The³⁵⁸⁸ Son⁵²⁰⁷ of man⁴⁴⁴ came²⁰⁶⁴ eating²⁰⁶⁸ and²⁵³² drinking,⁴⁰⁹⁵ and²⁵³² they say,³⁰⁰⁴ Behold²⁴⁰⁰ a man⁴⁴⁴ gluttonous,⁵³¹⁴ and²⁵³² a winebibber,³⁶³⁰ a friend⁵³⁸⁴ of publicans⁵⁰⁵⁷ and²⁵³² sinners.²⁶⁸ But²⁵³² wisdom⁴⁶⁷⁸ is justified¹³⁴⁴ of⁵⁷⁵ her⁸⁴⁸ children.⁵⁰⁴³

20  Then⁵¹¹⁹ began⁷⁵⁶ he to upbraid³⁶⁷⁹ the³⁵⁸⁸ cities⁴¹⁷² wherein^{1722 3739} most⁴¹¹⁸ of his⁸⁴⁶ mighty works¹⁴¹¹ were done,¹⁰⁹⁶ because³⁷⁵⁴ they repented³³⁴⁰ not:³⁷⁵⁶

21  Woe³⁷⁵⁹ unto thee,⁴⁶⁷¹ Chorazin!⁵⁵²³ woe³⁷⁵⁹ unto thee,⁴⁶⁷¹ Bethsaida!⁹⁶⁶ for³⁷⁵⁴ if¹⁴⁸⁷ the³⁵⁸⁸ mighty works,¹⁴¹¹ which were done¹⁰⁹⁶ in¹⁷²² you,⁵²¹³ had been done¹⁰⁹⁶ in¹⁷²² Tyre⁵¹⁸⁴ and²⁵³² Sidon,⁴⁶⁰⁵ they would have repented³³⁴⁰ long ago³⁸¹⁹ in¹⁷²² sackcloth⁴⁵²⁶ and²⁵³² ashes.⁴⁷⁰⁰

22  But⁴¹³³ I say³⁰⁰⁴ unto you,⁵²¹³ It shall be²⁰⁷¹ more tolerable⁴¹⁴ for Tyre⁵¹⁸⁴ and²⁵³² Sidon⁴⁶⁰⁵ at¹⁷²² the day²²⁵⁰ of judgment,²⁹²⁰ than²²²⁸ for you.⁵²¹³

23  And²⁵³² thou,⁴⁷⁷¹ Capernaum,²⁵⁸⁴ which art exalted⁵³¹² unto²¹⁹³ heaven,³⁷⁷² shalt be brought down²⁶⁰¹ to²¹⁹³ hell:⁸⁶ for³⁷⁵⁴ if¹⁴⁸⁷ the³⁵⁸⁸ mighty works,¹⁴¹¹ which have been done¹⁰⁹⁶ in¹⁷²² thee,⁴⁶⁷¹ had been done¹⁰⁹⁶ in¹⁷²² Sodom,⁴⁶⁷⁰ it would have remained³³⁰⁶ until³³⁶⁰ this day.⁴⁵⁹⁴

24  But⁴¹³³ I say³⁰⁰⁴ unto you,⁵²¹³ That³⁷⁵⁴ it shall be²⁰⁷¹ more tolerable⁴¹⁴ for the land¹⁰⁹³ of Sodom,⁴⁶⁷⁰ in¹⁷²² the day²²⁵⁰ of judgment,²⁹²⁰ than²²²⁸ for thee.⁴⁶⁷¹

25  At¹⁷²² that¹⁵⁶⁵ time²⁵⁴⁰ Jesus²⁴²⁴ answered⁶¹¹ and said,²⁰³⁶ I thank¹⁸⁴³ thee,⁴⁶⁷¹ O Father,³⁹⁶² Lord²⁹⁶² of heaven³⁷⁷² and²⁵³² earth,¹⁰⁹³ because³⁷⁵⁴ thou hast hid⁶¹³ these things⁵⁰²³ from⁵⁷⁵ the wise⁴⁶⁸⁰ and²⁵³² prudent,⁴⁹⁰⁸ and²⁵³² hast revealed⁶⁰¹ them⁸⁴⁶ unto babes.³⁵¹⁶

26  Even so,³⁴⁸³ Father:³⁹⁶² for³⁷⁵⁴ so³⁷⁷⁹ it seemed¹⁰⁹⁶ good²¹⁰⁷ in thy sight.^{1715 4675}

27  All things³⁹⁵⁶ are delivered³⁸⁶⁰ unto me³⁴²⁷ of⁵²⁵⁹ my³⁴⁵⁰ Father:³⁹⁶² and²⁵³² no man³⁷⁶² knoweth¹⁹²¹ the³⁵⁸⁸ Son,⁵²⁰⁷ but¹⁵⁰⁸ the³⁵⁸⁸ Father;³⁹⁶² neither³⁷⁶¹ knoweth¹⁹²¹ any man⁵¹⁰⁰ the³⁵⁸⁸ Father,³⁹⁶² save¹⁵⁰⁸ the³⁵⁸⁸ Son,⁵²⁰⁷ and²⁵³² he to whomsoever^{3739 1437} the³⁵⁸⁸ Son⁵²⁰⁷ will¹⁰¹⁴ reveal⁶⁰¹ him.

28  Come¹²⁰⁵ unto⁴³¹⁴ me,³¹⁶⁵ all³⁹⁵⁶ ye that labor²⁸⁷² and²⁵³² are heavy laden,⁵⁴¹² and I²⁵⁰⁴ will give you rest.^{373 5209}

29  Take¹⁴² my³⁴⁵⁰ yoke²²¹⁸ upon¹⁹⁰⁹ you,⁵²⁰⁹ and²⁵³² learn³¹²⁹ of⁵⁷⁵ me;¹⁷⁰⁰ for³⁷⁵⁴ I am¹⁵¹⁰ meek⁴²³⁵ and²⁵³² lowly⁵⁰¹¹ in heart:²⁵⁸⁸ and²⁵³² ye shall find²¹⁴⁷ rest³⁷² unto your⁵²¹⁶ souls.⁵⁵⁹⁰

30  For¹⁰⁶³ my³⁴⁵⁰ yoke²²¹⁸ is easy,⁵⁵⁴³ and²⁵³² my³⁴⁵⁰ burden⁵⁴¹³ is²⁰⁷⁶ light.¹⁶⁴⁵

Vul

1 Et factum est, cum consummasset Jesus, præcipiens duodecim discipulis suis, transiit inde ut doceret, et prædicaret in civitatibus eorum.

2 Joannes autem cum audisset in vinculis opera Christi, mittens duos de discipulis suis,

3 ait illi: Tu es, qui venturus es, an alium exspectamus?

4 Et respondens Jesus ait illis: Euntes renuntiate Joanni quæ audistis, et vidistis.

5 Cæci vident, claudi ambulant, leprosi mundantur, surdi audiunt, mortui resurgunt, pauperes evangelizantur:

6 et beatus est, qui non fuerit scandalizatus in me.

7 Illis autem abeuntibus, cœpit Jesus dicere ad turbas de Joanne: Quid existis in desertum videre? arundinem vento agitatam?

8 Sed quid existis videre? hominem mollibus vestitum? Ecce qui mollibus vestiuntur, in domibus regum sunt.

9 Sed quid existis videre? prophetam? Etiam dico vobis, et plus quam prophetam.

10 Hic est enim de quo scriptum est: Ecce ego mitto angelum meum ante faciem tuam, qui præparabit viam tuam ante te.

11 Amen dico vobis, non surrexit inter natos mulierum major Joanne Baptista: qui autem minor est in regno cælorum, major est illo.

12 A diebus autem Joannis Baptistæ usque nunc, regnum cælorum vim patitur, et violenti rapiunt illud.

13 Omnes enim prophetæ et lex usque ad Joannem prophetaverunt:

14 et si vultis recipere, ipse est Elias, qui venturus est.

15 Qui habet aures audiendi, audiat.

16 Cui autem similem æstimabo generationem istam? Similis est pueris sedentibus in foro: qui clamantes coæqualibus

17 dicunt: Cecinimus vobis, et non saltastis: lamentavimus, et non planxistis.

18 Venit enim Joannes neque manducans, neque bibens, et dicunt: Dæmonium habet.

19 Venit Filius hominis manducans, et bibens, et dicunt: Ecce homo vorax, et potator vini, publicanorum et peccatorum amicus. Et justificata est sapientia a filiis suis.

20 Tunc cœpit exprobrare civitatibus, in quibus factæ sunt plurimæ virtutes ejus, quia non egissent pœnitentiam:

21 Væ tibi Corozain, væ tibi Bethsaida: quia, si in Tyro et Sidone factæ essent virtutes quæ factæ sunt in vobis, olim in cilicio et cinere pœnitentiam egissent.

22 Verumtamen dico vobis: Tyro et Sidoni remissius erit in die judicii, quam vobis.

23 Et tu Capharnaum, numquid usque in cælum exaltaberis? usque in infernum descendes, quia si in Sodomis factæ fuissent virtutes quæ factæ sunt in te, forte mansissent usque in hanc diem.

24 Verumtamen dico vobis, quia terræ Sodomorum remissius erit in die judicii, quam tibi.

25 In illo tempore respondens Jesus dixit: Confiteor tibi, Pater, Domine cæli et terræ, quia abscondisti hæc a sapientibus, et prudentibus, et revelasti ea parvulis.

26 Ita Pater: quoniam sic fuit placitum ante te.

27 Omnia mihi tradita sunt a Patre meo. Et nemo novit Filium, nisi Pater: neque Patrem quis novit, nisi Filius, et cui voluerit Filius revelare.

28 Venite ad me omnes qui laboratis, et onerati estis, et ego reficiam vos.

29 Tollite jugum meum super vos, et discite a me, quia mitis sum, et humilis corde: et invenietis requiem animabus vestris.

30 Jugum enim meum suave est, et onus meum leve.
