WEB World English Bible (Classic, with Deuterocanon)
1 εν οισ επισυναχθεισων των μυριαδων του οχλου ωστε καταπατειν αλληλουσ ηρξατο λεγειν προσ τουσ μαθητασ αυτου πρωτον προσεχετε εαυτοισ απο τησ ζυμησ των φαρισαιων ητισ εστιν υποκρισισ
1 Meanwhile, when a multitude of many thousands had gathered together, so much so that they trampled on each other, he began to tell his disciples first of all, “Beware of the yeast of the Pharisees, which is hypocrisy.
2 ουδεν δε συγκεκαλυμμενον εστιν ο ουκ αποκαλυφθησεται και κρυπτον ο ου γνωσθησεται
2 But there is nothing covered up that will not be revealed, nor hidden that will not be known.
3 ανθ ων οσα εν τη σκοτια ειπατε εν τω φωτι ακουσθησεται και ο προσ το ουσ ελαλησατε εν τοισ ταμειοισ κηρυχθησεται επι των δωματων
3 Therefore whatever you have said in the darkness will be heard in the light. What you have spoken in the ear in the inner rooms will be proclaimed on the housetops.
4 λεγω δε υμιν τοισ φιλοισ μου μη φοβηθητε απο των αποκτενοντων το σωμα και μετα ταυτα μη εχοντων περισσοτερον τι ποιησαι
4 “I tell you, my friends, don’t be afraid of those who kill the body, and after that have no more that they can do.
5 υποδειξω δε υμιν τινα φοβηθητε φοβηθητε τον μετα το αποκτειναι εξουσιαν εχοντα εμβαλειν εισ την γεενναν ναι λεγω υμιν τουτον φοβηθητε
5 But I will warn you whom you should fear. Fear him who after he has killed, has power to cast into Gehenna. Yes, I tell you, fear him.
6 ουχι πεντε στρουθια πωλειται ασσαριων δυο και εν εξ αυτων ουκ εστιν επιλελησμενον ενωπιον του θεου
6 “Aren’t five sparrows sold for two assaria coins? Not one of them is forgotten by God.
7 αλλα και αι τριχεσ τησ κεφαλησ υμων πασαι ηριθμηνται μη ουν φοβεισθε πολλων στρουθιων διαφερετε
7 But the very hairs of your head are all counted. Therefore don’t be afraid. You are of more value than many sparrows.
8 λεγω δε υμιν πασ οσ αν ομολογηση εν εμοι εμπροσθεν των ανθρωπων και ο υιοσ του ανθρωπου ομολογησει εν αυτω εμπροσθεν των αγγελων του θεου
8 “I tell you, everyone who confesses me before men, the Son of Man will also confess before the angels of God;
9 ο δε αρνησαμενοσ με ενωπιον των ανθρωπων απαρνηθησεται ενωπιον των αγγελων του θεου
9 but he who denies me in the presence of men will be denied in the presence of God’s angels.
10 και πασ οσ ερει λογον εισ τον υιον του ανθρωπου αφεθησεται αυτω τω δε εισ το αγιον πνευμα βλασφημησαντι ουκ αφεθησεται
10 Everyone who speaks a word against the Son of Man will be forgiven, but those who blaspheme against the Holy Spirit will not be forgiven.
11 οταν δε προσφερωσιν υμασ επι τασ συναγωγασ και τασ αρχασ και τασ εξουσιασ μη μεριμνατε πωσ η τι απολογησησθε η τι ειπητε
11 When they bring you before the synagogues, the rulers, and the authorities, don’t be anxious how or what you will answer or what you will say;
12 το γαρ αγιον πνευμα διδαξει υμασ εν αυτη τη ωρα α δει ειπειν
12 for the Holy Spirit will teach you in that same hour what you must say.”
13 ειπεν δε τισ αυτω εκ του οχλου διδασκαλε ειπε τω αδελφω μου μερισασθαι μετ εμου την κληρονομιαν
13 One of the multitude said to him, “Teacher, tell my brother to divide the inheritance with me.”
14 ο δε ειπεν αυτω ανθρωπε τισ με κατεστησεν δικαστην η μεριστην εφ υμασ
14 But he said to him, “Man, who made me a judge or an arbitrator over you?”
15 ειπεν δε προσ αυτουσ ορατε και φυλασσεσθε απο τησ πλεονεξιασ οτι ουκ εν τω περισσευειν τινι η ζωη αυτω εστιν εκ των υπαρχοντων αυτου
15 He said to them, “Beware! Keep yourselves from covetousness, for a man’s life doesn’t consist of the abundance of the things which he possesses.”
16 ειπεν δε παραβολην προσ αυτουσ λεγων ανθρωπου τινοσ πλουσιου ευφορησεν η χωρα
16 He spoke a parable to them, saying, “The ground of a certain rich man produced abundantly.
17 και διελογιζετο εν εαυτω λεγων τι ποιησω οτι ουκ εχω που συναξω τουσ καρπουσ μου
17 He reasoned within himself, saying, ‘What will I do, because I don’t have room to store my crops?’
18 και ειπεν τουτο ποιησω καθελω μου τασ αποθηκασ και μειζονασ οικοδομησω και συναξω εκει παντα τα γενηματα μου και τα αγαθα μου
18 He said, ‘This is what I will do. I will pull down my barns, build bigger ones, and there I will store all my grain and my goods.
19 και ερω τη ψυχη μου ψυχη εχεισ πολλα αγαθα κειμενα εισ ετη πολλα αναπαυου φαγε πιε ευφραινου
19 I will tell my soul, “Soul, you have many goods laid up for many years. Take your ease, eat, drink, and be merry.”’
20 ειπεν δε αυτω ο θεοσ αφρον ταυτη τη νυκτι την ψυχην σου απαιτουσιν απο σου α δε ητοιμασασ τινι εσται
20 “But God said to him, ‘You foolish one, tonight your soul is required of you. The things which you have prepared—whose will they be?’
21 ουτωσ ο θησαυριζων εαυτω και μη εισ θεον πλουτων
21 So is he who lays up treasure for himself, and is not rich toward God.”
22 ειπεν δε προσ τουσ μαθητασ αυτου δια τουτο υμιν λεγω μη μεριμνατε τη ψυχη υμων τι φαγητε μηδε τω σωματι τι ενδυσησθε
22 He said to his disciples, “Therefore I tell you, don’t be anxious for your life, what you will eat, nor yet for your body, what you will wear.
23 η ψυχη πλειον εστιν τησ τροφησ και το σωμα του ενδυματοσ
23 Life is more than food, and the body is more than clothing.
24 κατανοησατε τουσ κορακασ οτι ου σπειρουσιν ουδε θεριζουσιν οισ ουκ εστιν ταμειον ουδε αποθηκη και ο θεοσ τρεφει αυτουσ ποσω μαλλον υμεισ διαφερετε των πετεινων
24 Consider the ravens: they don’t sow, they don’t reap, they have no warehouse or barn, and God feeds them. How much more valuable are you than birds!
25 τισ δε εξ υμων μεριμνων δυναται προσθειναι επι την ηλικιαν αυτου πηχυν ενα
25 Which of you by being anxious can add a cubit to his height?
26 ει ουν ουτε ελαχιστον δυνασθε τι περι των λοιπων μεριμνατε
26 If then you aren’t able to do even the least things, why are you anxious about the rest?
27 κατανοησατε τα κρινα πωσ αυξανει ου κοπια ουδε νηθει λεγω δε υμιν ουδε σολομων εν παση τη δοξη αυτου περιεβαλετο ωσ εν τουτων
27 Consider the lilies, how they grow. They don’t toil, neither do they spin; yet I tell you, even Solomon in all his glory was not arrayed like one of these.
28 ει δε τον χορτον εν τω αγρω σημερον οντα και αυριον εισ κλιβανον βαλλομενον ο θεοσ ουτωσ αμφιεννυσιν ποσω μαλλον υμασ ολιγοπιστοι
28 But if this is how God clothes the grass in the field, which today exists and tomorrow is cast into the oven, how much more will he clothe you, O you of little faith?
29 και υμεισ μη ζητειτε τι φαγητε η τι πιητε και μη μετεωριζεσθε
29 “Don’t seek what you will eat or what you will drink; neither be anxious.
30 ταυτα γαρ παντα τα εθνη του κοσμου επιζητει υμων δε ο πατηρ οιδεν οτι χρηζετε τουτων
30 For the nations of the world seek after all of these things, but your Father knows that you need these things.
31 πλην ζητειτε την βασιλειαν του θεου και ταυτα παντα προστεθησεται υμιν
31 But seek God’s Kingdom, and all these things will be added to you.
32 μη φοβου το μικρον ποιμνιον οτι ευδοκησεν ο πατηρ υμων δουναι υμιν την βασιλειαν
32 “Don’t be afraid, little flock, for it is your Father’s good pleasure to give you the Kingdom.
33 πωλησατε τα υπαρχοντα υμων και δοτε ελεημοσυνην ποιησατε εαυτοισ βαλαντια μη παλαιουμενα θησαυρον ανεκλειπτον εν τοισ ουρανοισ οπου κλεπτησ ουκ εγγιζει ουδε σησ διαφθειρει
33 Sell what you have and give gifts to the needy. Make for yourselves purses which don’t grow old, a treasure in the heavens that doesn’t fail, where no thief approaches and no moth destroys.
34 οπου γαρ εστιν ο θησαυροσ υμων εκει και η καρδια υμων εσται
34 For where your treasure is, there will your heart be also.
35 εστωσαν υμων αι οσφυεσ περιεζωσμεναι και οι λυχνοι καιομενοι
35 “Let your waist be dressed and your lamps burning.
36 και υμεισ ομοιοι ανθρωποισ προσδεχομενοισ τον κυριον εαυτων ποτε αναλυση εκ των γαμων ινα ελθοντοσ και κρουσαντοσ ευθεωσ ανοιξωσιν αυτω
36 Be like men watching for their lord when he returns from the wedding feast, that when he comes and knocks, they may immediately open to him.
37 μακαριοι οι δουλοι εκεινοι ουσ ελθων ο κυριοσ ευρησει γρηγορουντασ αμην λεγω υμιν οτι περιζωσεται και ανακλινει αυτουσ και παρελθων διακονησει αυτοισ
37 Blessed are those servants whom the lord will find watching when he comes. Most certainly I tell you that he will dress himself, make them recline, and will come and serve them.
38 και εαν ελθη εν τη δευτερα φυλακη και εν τη τριτη φυλακη ελθη και ευρη ουτωσ μακαριοι εισιν οι δουλοι εκεινοι
38 They will be blessed if he comes in the second or third watch and finds them so.
39 τουτο δε γινωσκετε οτι ει ηδει ο οικοδεσποτησ ποια ωρα ο κλεπτησ ερχεται εγρηγορησεν αν και ουκ αν αφηκεν διορυγηναι τον οικον αυτου
39 But know this, that if the master of the house had known in what hour the thief was coming, he would have watched and not allowed his house to be broken into.
40 και υμεισ ουν γινεσθε ετοιμοι οτι η ωρα ου δοκειτε ο υιοσ του ανθρωπου ερχεται
40 Therefore be ready also, for the Son of Man is coming in an hour that you don’t expect him.”
41 ειπεν δε αυτω ο πετροσ κυριε προσ ημασ την παραβολην ταυτην λεγεισ η και προσ παντασ
41 Peter said to him, “Lord, are you telling this parable to us, or to everybody?”
42 ειπεν δε ο κυριοσ τισ αρα εστιν ο πιστοσ οικονομοσ και φρονιμοσ ον καταστησει ο κυριοσ επι τησ θεραπειασ αυτου του διδοναι εν καιρω το σιτομετριον
42 The Lord said, “Who then is the faithful and wise steward, whom his lord will set over his household, to give them their portion of food at the right times?
43 μακαριοσ ο δουλοσ εκεινοσ ον ελθων ο κυριοσ αυτου ευρησει ποιουντα ουτωσ
43 Blessed is that servant whom his lord will find doing so when he comes.
44 αληθωσ λεγω υμιν οτι επι πασιν τοισ υπαρχουσιν αυτου καταστησει αυτον
44 Truly I tell you that he will set him over all that he has.
45 εαν δε ειπη ο δουλοσ εκεινοσ εν τη καρδια αυτου χρονιζει ο κυριοσ μου ερχεσθαι και αρξηται τυπτειν τουσ παιδασ και τασ παιδισκασ εσθιειν τε και πινειν και μεθυσκεσθαι
45 But if that servant says in his heart, ‘My lord delays his coming,’ and begins to beat the menservants and the maidservants, and to eat and drink and to be drunken,
46 ηξει ο κυριοσ του δουλου εκεινου εν ημερα η ου προσδοκα και εν ωρα η ου γινωσκει και διχοτομησει αυτον και το μεροσ αυτου μετα των απιστων θησει
46 then the lord of that servant will come in a day when he isn’t expecting him and in an hour that he doesn’t know, and will cut him in two, and place his portion with the unfaithful.
47 εκεινοσ δε ο δουλοσ ο γνουσ το θελημα του κυριου εαυτου και μη ετοιμασασ μηδε ποιησασ προσ το θελημα αυτου δαρησεται πολλασ
47 That servant who knew his lord’s will, and didn’t prepare nor do what he wanted, will be beaten with many stripes,
48 ο δε μη γνουσ ποιησασ δε αξια πληγων δαρησεται ολιγασ παντι δε ω εδοθη πολυ πολυ ζητηθησεται παρ αυτου και ω παρεθεντο πολυ περισσοτερον αιτησουσιν αυτον
48 but he who didn’t know, and did things worthy of stripes, will be beaten with few stripes. To whomever much is given, of him will much be required; and to whom much was entrusted, of him more will be asked.
49 πυρ ηλθον βαλειν εισ την γην και τι θελω ει ηδη ανηφθη
49 “I came to throw fire on the earth. I wish it were already kindled.
50 βαπτισμα δε εχω βαπτισθηναι και πωσ συνεχομαι εωσ ου τελεσθη
50 But I have a baptism to be baptized with, and how distressed I am until it is accomplished!
51 δοκειτε οτι ειρηνην παρεγενομην δουναι εν τη γη ουχι λεγω υμιν αλλ η διαμερισμον
51 Do you think that I have come to give peace on the earth? I tell you, no, but rather division.
52 εσονται γαρ απο του νυν πεντε εν οικω ενι διαμεμερισμενοι τρεισ επι δυσιν και δυο επι τρισιν
52 For from now on, there will be five in one house divided, three against two, and two against three.
53 διαμερισθησεται πατηρ επι υιω και υιοσ επι πατρι μητηρ επι θυγατρι και θυγατηρ επι μητρι πενθερα επι την νυμφην αυτησ και νυμφη επι την πενθεραν αυτησ
53 They will be divided, father against son, and son against father; mother against daughter, and daughter against her mother; mother-in-law against her daughter-in-law, and daughter-in-law against her mother-in-law.”
54 ελεγεν δε και τοισ οχλοισ οταν ιδητε την νεφελην ανατελλουσαν απο δυσμων ευθεωσ λεγετε ομβροσ ερχεται και γινεται ουτωσ
54 He said to the multitudes also, “When you see a cloud rising from the west, immediately you say, ‘A shower is coming,’ and so it happens.
55 και οταν νοτον πνεοντα λεγετε οτι καυσων εσται και γινεται
55 When a south wind blows, you say, ‘There will be a scorching heat,’ and it happens.
56 υποκριται το προσωπον τησ γησ και του ουρανου οιδατε δοκιμαζειν τον δε καιρον τουτον πωσ ου δοκιμαζετε
56 You hypocrites! You know how to interpret the appearance of the earth and the sky, but how is it that you don’t interpret this time?
57 τι δε και αφ εαυτων ου κρινετε το δικαιον
57 “Why don’t you judge for yourselves what is right?
58 ωσ γαρ υπαγεισ μετα του αντιδικου σου επ αρχοντα εν τη οδω δοσ εργασιαν απηλλαχθαι απ αυτου μηποτε κατασυρη σε προσ τον κριτην και ο κριτησ σε παραδω τω πρακτορι και ο πρακτωρ σε βαλη εισ φυλακην
58 For when you are going with your adversary before the magistrate, try diligently on the way to be released from him, lest perhaps he drag you to the judge, and the judge deliver you to the officer, and the officer throw you into prison.
59 λεγω σοι ου μη εξελθησ εκειθεν εωσ ου και τον εσχατον λεπτον αποδωσ
59 I tell you, you will by no means get out of there until you have paid the very last penny.”

What the Fathers said

Passages from the Church Fathers that expound or quote this chapter, verbatim from the public-domain Schaff edition (19th-century English translations).

How these were chosen

“Commentary” is the opening of a homily or exposition on this chapter (John Chrysostom’s homilies, Augustine’s tractates, sermons and expositions of the Psalms). “Quotes” are sentences where the edition’s own footnotes identify a quotation of a verse here, kept only when the wording matches the verse. Only works whose authorship is not in doubt are used. Psalms follow the Hebrew/English numbering (Augustine numbers them as the Septuagint does: his Psalm 50 is Psalm 51 here).

  1. Commentary 12:15 Augustine of Hippo, Sermons on Selected Lessons of the New Testament (Sermon LVII)

    I doubt not but that ye who fear God, do hear His word with awe, and execute it with cheerfulness; that what He hath promised, ye may at present hope for, hereafter receive. We have just now heard the Lord Christ Jesus, the Son of God, giving us a precept.
