1And he began again to teach by the sea side: and there was gathered unto him a great multitude, so that he entered into a ship, and sat in the sea; and the whole multitude was by the sea on the land.
1[] Και παλιν ηρχισε να διδασκη πλησιον της θαλασσης· και συνηχθη προς αυτον οχλος πολυς, ωστε εισελθων εις το πλοιον εκαθητο εις την θαλασσαν· και πας ο οχλος ητο επι της γης πλησιον της θαλασσης.
2And he taught them many things by parables, and said unto them in his doctrine,
2Και εδιδασκεν αυτους δια παραβολων πολλα, και ελεγε προς αυτους εν τη διδαχη αυτου·
3Hearken; Behold, there went out a sower to sow:
3Ακουετε· ιδου, εξηλθεν ο σπειρων δια να σπειρη.
4And it came to pass, as he sowed, some fell by the way side, and the fowls of the air came and devoured it up.
4Και ενω εσπειρεν, αλλο μεν επεσε παρα την οδον, και ηλθον τα πετεινα του ουρανου και κατεφαγον αυτο.
5And some fell on stony ground, where it had not much earth; and immediately it sprang up, because it had no depth of earth:
5Αλλο δε επεσεν επι το πετρωδες, οπου δεν ειχε γην πολλην, και ευθυς ανεφυη, διοτι δεν ειχε βαθος γης,
6But when the sun was up, it was scorched; and because it had no root, it withered away.
6και οτε ανετειλεν ο ηλιος εκαυματισθη, και επειδη δεν ειχε ριζαν εξηρανθη.
7And some fell among thorns, and the thorns grew up, and choked it, and it yielded no fruit.
7Και αλλο επεσεν εις τας ακανθας, και ανεβησαν αι ακανθαι και συνεπνιξαν αυτο, και καρπον δεν εδωκε·
8And other fell on good ground, and did yield fruit that sprang up and increased; and brought forth, some thirty, and some sixty, and some an hundred.
8και αλλο επεσεν εις την γην την καλην και εδιδε καρπον αναβαινοντα και αυξανοντα, και εδωκεν εν τριακοντα και εν εξηκοντα και εν εκατον.
9And he said unto them, He that hath ears to hear, let him hear.
9Και ελεγε προς αυτους· Ο εχων ωτα δια να ακουη, ας ακουη.
10And when he was alone, they that were about him with the twelve asked of him the parable.
10Οτε δε εμεινε καταμονας, ηρωτησαν αυτον οι περι αυτον μετα των δωδεκα περι της παραβολης.
11And he said unto them, Unto you it is given to know the mystery of the kingdom of God: but unto them that are without, all these things are done in parables:
11Και ελεγε προς αυτους· Εις εσας εδοθη να γνωρισητε το μυστηριον της βασιλειας του Θεου· εις εκεινους δε τους εξω δια παραβολων τα παντα γινονται,
12That seeing they may see, and not perceive; and hearing they may hear, and not understand; lest at any time they should be converted, and their sins should be forgiven them.
12δια να βλεπωσι βλεποντες και να μη ιδωσι, και να ακουωσιν ακουοντες και να μη νοησωσι, μηποτε επιστρεψωσι και συγχωρηθωσιν εις αυτους τα αμαρτηματα.
13And he said unto them, Know ye not this parable? and how then will ye know all parables?
13Και λεγει προς αυτους· Δεν εξευρετε την παραβολην ταυτην, και πως θελετε γνωρισει πασας τας παραβολας;
14The sower soweth the word.
14Ο σπειρων τον λογον σπειρει.
15And these are they by the way side, where the word is sown; but when they have heard, Satan cometh immediately, and taketh away the word that was sown in their hearts.
15Οι δε παρα την οδον ειναι ουτοι, εις τους οποιους σπειρεται ο λογος, και οταν ακουσωσιν, ευθυς ερχεται ο Σατανας, και αφαιρει τον λογον τον εσπαρμενον εν ταις καρδιαις αυτων.
16And these are they likewise which are sown on stony ground; who, when they have heard the word, immediately receive it with gladness;
16Και ομοιως οι επι τα πετρωδη σπειρομενοι ειναι ουτοι, οιτινες οταν ακουσωσι τον λογον, ευθυς μετα χαρας δεχονται αυτον,
17And have no root in themselves, and so endure but for a time: afterward, when affliction or persecution ariseth for the word's sake, immediately they are offended.
17δεν εχουσιν ομως ριζαν εν εαυτοις, αλλ' ειναι προσκαιροι· επειτα οταν γεινη θλιψις η διωγμος δια τον λογον, ευθυς σκανδαλιζονται.
18And these are they which are sown among thorns; such as hear the word,
18Και οι εις τας ακανθας σπειρομενοι ειναι ουτοι, οιτινες ακουουσι τον λογον,
19And the cares of this world, and the deceitfulness of riches, and the lusts of other things entering in, choke the word, and it becometh unfruitful.
19και αι μεριμναι του αιωνος τουτου και η απατη του πλουτου και αι επιθυμιαι των αλλων πραγματων εισερχομεναι συμπνιγουσι τον λογον, και γινεται ακαρπος.
20And these are they which are sown on good ground; such as hear the word, and receive it, and bring forth fruit, some thirtyfold, some sixty, and some an hundred.
20Και οι εις την γην την καλην σπαρεντες ειναι ουτοι, οιτινες ακουουσι τον λογον και παραδεχονται και καρποφορουσιν εν τριακοντα και εν εξηκοντα και εν εκατον.
21And he said unto them, Is a candle brought to be put under a bushel, or under a bed? and not to be set on a candlestick?
21[] Και ελεγε προς αυτους· Μηπως ο λυχνος ερχεται δια να τεθη υπο τον μοδιον η υπο την κλινην; ουχι δια να τεθη επι τον λυχνοστατην;
22For there is nothing hid, which shall not be manifested; neither was any thing kept secret, but that it should come abroad.
22διοτι δεν ειναι τι κρυπτον, το οποιον δεν θελει φανερωθη, ουδ' εγεινε τι αποκρυφον, το οποιον δεν θελει ελθει εις το φανερον.
23If any man have ears to hear, let him hear.
23Οστις εχει ωτα δια να ακουη, ας ακουη.
24And he said unto them, Take heed what ye hear: with what measure ye mete, it shall be measured to you: and unto you that hear shall more be given.
24Και ελεγε προς αυτους· Προσεχετε τι ακουετε. Με οποιον μετρον μετρειτε, θελει μετρηθη εις εσας, και θελει γεινει προσθηκη εις εσας τους ακουοντας.
25For he that hath, to him shall be given: and he that hath not, from him shall be taken even that which he hath.
25Διοτι οστις εχει, θελει δοθη εις αυτον· και οστις δεν εχει, και εκεινο το οποιον εχει θελει αφαιρεθη απ' αυτου.
26And he said, So is the kingdom of God, as if a man should cast seed into the ground;
26Και ελεγεν· Ουτως ειναι η βασιλεια του Θεου, ως εαν ανθρωπος ριψη τον σπορον επι της γης,
27And should sleep, and rise night and day, and the seed should spring and grow up, he knoweth not how.
27και κοιμαται και σηκονηται νυκτα και ημεραν, και ο σπορος βλαστανη και αυξανη καθως αυτος δεν εξευρει.
28For the earth bringeth forth fruit of herself; first the blade, then the ear, after that the full corn in the ear.
28Διοτι αφ' εαυτης η γη καρποφορει, πρωτον χορτον, επειτα ασταχυον, επειτα πληρη σιτον εν τω ασταχυω.
29But when the fruit is brought forth, immediately he putteth in the sickle, because the harvest is come.
29Οταν δε ωριμαση ο καρπος, ευθυς αποστελλει το δρεπανον, διοτι ηλθεν ο θερισμος.
30And he said, Whereunto shall we liken the kingdom of God? or with what comparison shall we compare it?
30Ετι ελεγε· Με τι να ομοιωσωμεν την βασιλειαν του Θεου; η με ποιαν παραβολην να παραβαλωμεν αυτην;
31It is like a grain of mustard seed, which, when it is sown in the earth, is less than all the seeds that be in the earth:
31Ειναι ομοια με κοκκον σιναπεως, οστις, οταν σπαρη επι της γης, ειναι μικροτερος παντων των σπερματων των επι της γης·
32But when it is sown, it groweth up, and becometh greater than all herbs, and shooteth out great branches; so that the fowls of the air may lodge under the shadow of it.
32αφου δε σπαρη, αναβαινει και γινεται μεγαλητερος παντων των λαχανων και καμνει κλαδους μεγαλους, ωστε υπο την σκιαν αυτου δυνανται τα πετεινα του ουρανου να κατασκηνωσι.
33And with many such parables spake he the word unto them, as they were able to hear it.
33Και δια τοιουτων πολλων παραβολων ελαλει προς αυτους τον λογον, καθως ηδυναντο να ακουωσι,
34But without a parable spake he not unto them: and when they were alone, he expounded all things to his disciples.
34χωρις δε παραβολης δεν ελαλει προς αυτους· κατ ιδιαν ομως εξηγει παντα εις τους μαθητας αυτου.
35And the same day, when the even was come, he saith unto them, Let us pass over unto the other side.
35[] Και λεγει προς αυτους εν εκεινη τη ημερα, οτε εγεινεν εσπερα· Ας διελθωμεν εις το περαν.
36And when they had sent away the multitude, they took him even as he was in the ship. And there were also with him other little ships.
36Και αφησαντες τον οχλον, παραλαμβανουσιν αυτον ως ητο εν τω πλοιω και αλλα δε πλοιαρια ησαν μετ' αυτου.
37And there arose a great storm of wind, and the waves beat into the ship, so that it was now full.
37Και γινεται μεγας ανεμοστροβιλος και τα κυματα εισεβαλλον εις το πλοιον, ωστε αυτο ηδη εγεμιζετο.
38And he was in the hinder part of the ship, asleep on a pillow: and they awake him, and say unto him, Master, carest thou not that we perish?
38Και αυτος ητο επι της πρυμνης κοιμωμενος επι το προσκεφαλαιον· και εξυπνουσιν αυτον και λεγουσι προς αυτον· Διδασκαλε, δεν σε μελει οτι χανομεθα;
39And he arose, and rebuked the wind, and said unto the sea, Peace, be still. And the wind ceased, and there was a great calm.
39Και σηκωθεις επετιμησε τον ανεμον και ειπε προς την θαλασσαν· Σιωπα, ησυχασον. Και επαυσεν ο ανεμος, και εγεινε γαληνη μεγαλη.
40And he said unto them, Why are ye so fearful? how is it that ye have no faith?
40Και ειπε προς αυτους· Δια τι εισθε ουτω δειλοι; πως δεν εχετε πιστιν;
41And they feared exceedingly, and said one to another, What manner of man is this, that even the wind and the sea obey him?
41Και εφοβηθησαν φοβον μεγαν και ελεγον προς αλληλους· Τις λοιπον ειναι ουτος, οτι και ο ανεμος και η θαλασσα υπακουουσιν εις αυτον;
