¹[] Επλησιαζε δε η εορτη των αζυμων, λεγομενη Πασχα.

¹Now the feast of unleavened bread, which is called the Passover, drew near.

²Και εζητουν οι αρχιερεις και οι γραμματεις το πως να θανατωσωσιν αυτον διοτι φοβουντο τον λαον.

²The chief priests and the scribes sought how they might put him to death, for they feared the people.

³Εισηλθε δε ο Σατανας εις τον Ιουδαν τον επονομαζομενον Ισκαριωτην, οντα εκ του αριθμου των δωδεκα,

³Satan entered into Judas, who was surnamed Iscariot, who was numbered with the twelve.

⁴και υπηγε και συνελαλησε μετα των αρχιερεων και των στρατηγων το πως να παραδωση αυτον εις αυτους.

⁴He went away, and talked with the chief priests and captains about how he might deliver him to them.

⁵Και εχαρησαν και συνεφωνησαν να δωσωσιν εις αυτον αργυριον·

⁵They were glad, and agreed to give him money.

⁶και εδωκεν υποσχεσιν και εζητει ευκαιριαν να παραδωση αυτον εις αυτους χωρις θορυβου.

⁶He consented, and sought an opportunity to deliver him to them in the absence of the multitude.

⁷[] Ηλθε δε ημερα των αζυμων, καθ' ην επρεπε να θυσιασωσι το πασχα,

⁷The day of unleavened bread came, on which the Passover must be sacrificed.

⁸και απεστειλε τον Πετρον και Ιωαννην, ειπων· Υπαγετε και ετοιμασατε εις ημας το πασχα, δια να φαγωμεν.

⁸He sent Peter and John, saying, “Go and prepare the Passover for us, that we may eat.”

⁹Οι δε ειπον προς αυτον· Που θελεις να ετοιμασωμεν;

⁹They said to him, “Where do you want us to prepare?”

¹⁰Ο δε ειπε προς αυτους· Ιδου, οταν εισελθητε εις την πολιν, θελει σας συναπαντησει ανθρωπος βασταζων σταμνιον υδατος· ακολουθησατε αυτον εις την οικιαν οπου εισερχεται.

¹⁰He said to them, “Behold, when you have entered into the city, a man carrying a pitcher of water will meet you. Follow him into the house which he enters.

¹¹Και θελετε ειπει προς τον οικοδεσποτην της οικιας· Ο Διδασκαλος σοι λεγει, Που ειναι το καταλυμα, οπου θελω φαγει το πασχα μετα των μαθητων μου;

¹¹ Tell the master of the house, ‘The Teacher says to you, “Where is the guest room, where I may eat the Passover with my disciples?”’

¹²και εκεινος θελει σας δειξει ανωγεον μεγα εστρωμενον· εκει ετοιμασατε.

¹² He will show you a large, furnished upper room. Make preparations there.”

¹³Αφου δε υπηγον, ευρον καθως ειπε προς αυτους, και ητοιμασαν το πασχα.

¹³They went, found things as he had told them, and they prepared the Passover.

¹⁴Και οτε ηλθεν η ωρα, εκαθησεν εις την τραπεζαν, και οι δωδεκα αποστολοι μετ' αυτου.

¹⁴When the hour had come, he sat down with the twelve apostles.

¹⁵Και ειπε προς αυτους· Πολυ επεθυμησα να φαγω το πασχα τουτο με σας προ του να παθω·

¹⁵He said to them, “I have earnestly desired to eat this Passover with you before I suffer,

¹⁶διοτι σας λεγω, οτι δεν θελω φαγει πλεον εξ αυτου, εωσου εκπληρωθη εν τη βασιλεια του Θεου.

¹⁶ for I tell you, I will no longer by any means eat of it until it is fulfilled in the Kingdom of God.”

¹⁷Και λαβων το ποτηριον, ευχαριστησε και ειπε· Λαβετε τουτο και διαμοιρασατε εις αλληλους·

¹⁷He received a cup, and when he had given thanks, he said, “Take this, and share it among yourselves,

¹⁸διοτι σας λεγω οτι δεν θελω πιει απο του γεννηματος της αμπελου, εωσου ελθη η βασιλεια του Θεου.

¹⁸ for I tell you, I will not drink at all again from the fruit of the vine, until the Kingdom of God comes.”

¹⁹Και λαβων αρτον, ευχαριστησας εκοψε και εδωκεν εις αυτους, λεγων· Τουτο ειναι το σωμα μου το υπερ υμων διδομενον· τουτο καμνετε εις την ιδικην μου αναμνησιν.

¹⁹He took bread, and when he had given thanks, he broke it, and gave to them, saying, “This is my body which is given for you. Do this in memory of me.”

²⁰Ωσαυτως και το ποτηριον, αφου εδειπνησαν, λεγων· Τουτο το ποτηριον ειναι η καινη διαθηκη εν τω αιματι μου, το υπερ υμων εκχυνομενον.

²⁰Likewise, he took the cup after supper, saying, “This cup is the new covenant in my blood, which is poured out for you.

²¹[] Πλην ιδου, η χειρ εκεινου οστις με παραδιδει, ειναι μετ' εμου επι της τραπεζης.

²¹ But behold, the hand of him who betrays me is with me on the table.

²²Και ο μεν Υιος του ανθρωπου υπαγει κατα το ωρισμενον· πλην ουαι εις τον ανθρωπον εκεινον, δι' ου παραδιδεται.

²² The Son of Man indeed goes, as it has been determined, but woe to that man through whom he is betrayed!”

²³Και αυτοι ηρχισαν να συζητωσι προς αλληλους το ποιος ταχα ητο εξ αυτων, οστις εμελλε να καμη τουτο.

²³They began to question among themselves, which of them it was who would do this thing.

²⁴Εγεινε δε και φιλονεικια μεταξυ αυτων, περι του τις εξ αυτων νομιζεται οτι ειναι μεγαλητερος.

²⁴There arose also a contention among them, which of them was considered to be greatest.

²⁵Ο δε ειπε προς αυτους· οι βασιλεις των εθνων κυριευουσιν αυτα, και οι εξουσιαζοντες αυτα ονομαζονται ευεργεται.

²⁵He said to them, “The kings of the nations lord it over them, and those who have authority over them are called ‘benefactors.’

²⁶Σεις ομως ουχι ουτως, αλλ' ο μεγαλητερος μεταξυ σας ας γεινη ως ο μικροτερος, και ο προισταμενος ως ο υπηρετων.

²⁶ But not so with you. But one who is the greater among you, let him become as the younger, and one who is governing, as one who serves.

²⁷Διοτι τις ειναι μεγαλητερος, ο καθημενος εις την τραπεζαν η ο υπηρετων; ουχι ο καθημενος; αλλ' εγω ειμαι εν μεσω υμων ως ο υπηρετων.

²⁷ For who is greater, one who sits at the table, or one who serves? Isn’t it he who sits at the table? But I am in the midst of you as one who serves.

²⁸Σεις δε εισθε οι διαμειναντες μετ' εμου εν τοις πειρασμοις μου·

²⁸ But you are those who have continued with me in my trials.

²⁹οθεν εγω ετοιμαζω εις εσας βασιλειαν, ως ο Πατηρ μου ητοιμασεν εις εμε,

²⁹ I confer on you a kingdom, even as my Father conferred on me,

³⁰δια να τρωγητε και να πινητε επι της τραπεζης μου εν τη βασιλεια μου, και να καθησητε επι θρονων, κρινοντες τας δωδεκα φυλας του Ισραηλ.

³⁰ that you may eat and drink at my table in my Kingdom. You will sit on thrones, judging the twelve tribes of Israel.”

³¹Ειπε δε ο Κυριος· Σιμων, Σιμων, ιδου, ο Σατανας σας εζητησε δια να σας κοσκινιση ως τον σιτον·

³¹The Lord said, “Simon, Simon, behold, Satan asked to have you, that he might sift you as wheat,

³²πλην εγω εδεηθην περι σου δια να μη εκλειψη η πιστις σου· και συ, οταν ποτε επιστρεψης, στηριξον τους αδελφους σου.

³² but I prayed for you, that your faith wouldn’t fail. You, when once you have turned again, establish your brothers The word for “brothers” here may be also correctly translated “brothers and sisters” or “siblings.” .”

³³Ο δε ειπε προς αυτον· Κυριε, ετοιμος ειμαι μετα σου να υπαγω και εις φυλακην και εις θανατον.

³³He said to him, “Lord, I am ready to go with you both to prison and to death!”

³⁴Ο δε ειπε· σοι λεγω, Πετρε, δεν θελει φωναξει σημερον ο αλεκτωρ, πριν απαρνηθης τρις οτι δεν με γνωριζεις.

³⁴He said, “I tell you, Peter, the rooster will by no means crow today until you deny that you know me three times.”

³⁵Και ειπε προς αυτους· Οτε σας απεστειλα χωρις βαλαντιου και σακκιου και υποδηματων, μηπως εστερηθητε τινος; οι δε ειπον· Ουδενος.

³⁵He said to them, “When I sent you out without purse, and wallet, and shoes, did you lack anything?” They said, “Nothing.”

³⁶Ειπε λοιπον προς αυτους· Αλλα τωρα οστις εχει βαλαντιον ας λαβη αυτο μεθ' εαυτου, ομοιως και σακκιον, και οστις δεν εχει ας πωληση το ιματιον αυτου και ας αγοραση μαχαιραν.

³⁶Then he said to them, “But now, whoever has a purse, let him take it, and likewise a wallet. Whoever has none, let him sell his cloak, and buy a sword.

³⁷Διοτι σας λεγω οτι ετι τουτο το γεγραμμενον πρεπει να εκτελεσθη εις εμε, το, Και μετα ανομων ελογισθη. Διοτι τα περι εμου γεγραμμενα λαμβανουσι τελος.

³⁷ For I tell you that this which is written must still be fulfilled in me: ‘He was counted with transgressors.’ Isaiah 53:12 For that which concerns me has an end.”

³⁸Οι δε ειπον· Κυριε, ιδου, ηδη δυο μαχαιραι. Ο δε ειπε προς αυτους· Ικανον ειναι.

³⁸They said, “Lord, behold, here are two swords.” He said to them, “That is enough.”

³⁹[] Και εξελθων υπηγε κατα την συνηθειαν εις το ορος των Ελαιων· ηκολουθησαν δε αυτον και οι μαθηται αυτου.

³⁹He came out, and went, as his custom was, to the Mount of Olives. His disciples also followed him.

⁴⁰Αφου δε ηλθεν εις τον τοπον, ειπε προς αυτους· Προσευχεσθε, δια να μη εισελθητε εις πειρασμον.

⁴⁰When he was at the place, he said to them, “Pray that you don’t enter into temptation.”

⁴¹Και αυτος εχωρισθη απ' αυτων ως λιθου βολην, και γονατισας προσηυχετο,

⁴¹He was withdrawn from them about a stone’s throw, and he knelt down and prayed,

⁴²λεγων· Πατερ, εαν θελης να απομακρυνης το ποτηριον τουτο απ' εμου· πλην ουχι το θελημα μου, αλλα το σον ας γεινη.

⁴²saying, “Father, if you are willing, remove this cup from me. Nevertheless, not my will, but yours, be done.”

⁴³Εφανη δε εις αυτον αγγελος απ' ουρανου ενισχυων αυτον.

⁴³An angel from heaven appeared to him, strengthening him.

⁴⁴Και ελθων εις αγωνιαν, προσηυχετο θερμοτερον, εγεινε δε ο ιδρως αυτου ως θρομβοι αιματος καταβαινοντες εις την γην.

⁴⁴Being in agony he prayed more earnestly. His sweat became like great drops of blood falling down on the ground.

⁴⁵Και σηκωθεις απο της προσευχης, ηλθε προς τους μαθητας αυτου και ευρεν αυτους κοιμωμενους απο της λυπης,

⁴⁵When he rose up from his prayer, he came to the disciples, and found them sleeping because of grief,

⁴⁶και ειπε προς αυτους· Τι κοιμασθε; σηκωθητε και προσευχεσθε, δια να μη εισελθητε εις πειρασμον.

⁴⁶and said to them, “Why do you sleep? Rise and pray that you may not enter into temptation.”

⁴⁷[] Ενω δε αυτος ελαλει ετι, ιδου οχλος, και ο λεγομενος Ιουδας, εις των δωδεκα, ηρχετο προ αυτων και επλησιασεν εις τον Ιησουν, δια να φιληση αυτον.

⁴⁷While he was still speaking, behold, a multitude, and he who was called Judas, one of the twelve, was leading them. He came near to Jesus to kiss him.

⁴⁸Ο δε Ιησους ειπε προς αυτον· Ιουδα, με φιλημα παραδιδεις τον Υιον του ανθρωπου;

⁴⁸But Jesus said to him, “Judas, do you betray the Son of Man with a kiss?”

⁴⁹Ιδοντες δε οι περι αυτον τι εμελλε να γεινη, ειπον προς αυτον· Κυριε, να κτυπησωμεν με την μαχαιραν;

⁴⁹When those who were around him saw what was about to happen, they said to him, “Lord, shall we strike with the sword?”

⁵⁰Και εκτυπησεν εις εξ αυτων τον δουλον του αρχιερεως και απεκοψεν αυτου το ωτιον το δεξιον.

⁵⁰A certain one of them struck the servant of the high priest, and cut off his right ear.

⁵¹Αποκριθεις δε ο Ιησους, ειπεν· Αφησατε εως τουτου· και πιασας το ωτιον αυτου ιατρευσεν αυτον.

⁵¹But Jesus answered, “Let me at least do this” —and he touched his ear, and healed him.

⁵²Ειπε δε ο Ιησους προς τους ελθοντας επ' αυτον αρχιερεις και στρατηγους του ιερου και πρεσβυτερους. Ως επι ληστην εξηλθετε μετα μαχαιρων και ξυλων;

⁵²Jesus said to the chief priests, captains of the temple, and elders, who had come against him, “Have you come out as against a robber, with swords and clubs?

⁵³καθ' ημεραν ημην μεθ' υμων εν τω ιερω και δεν ηπλωσατε τας χειρας επ' εμε. Αλλ' αυτη ειναι η ωρα σας και η εξουσια του σκοτους.

⁵³ When I was with you in the temple daily, you didn’t stretch out your hands against me. But this is your hour, and the power of darkness.”

⁵⁴[] Συλλαβοντες δε αυτον, εφεραν και εισηγαγον αυτον εις τον οικον του αρχιερεως. Ο δε Πετρος ηκολουθει μακροθεν.

⁵⁴They seized him, and led him away, and brought him into the high priest’s house. But Peter followed from a distance.

⁵⁵Αφου δε αναψαντες πυρ εν τω μεσω της αυλης συνεκαθησαν, εκαθητο ο Πετρος εν μεσω αυτων.

⁵⁵When they had kindled a fire in the middle of the courtyard, and had sat down together, Peter sat among them.

⁵⁶Ιδουσα δε αυτον μια τις δουλη καθημενον προς το φως και ενατενισασα εις αυτον, ειπε· Και ουτος ητο μετ' αυτου.

⁵⁶A certain servant girl saw him as he sat in the light, and looking intently at him, said, “This man also was with him.”

⁵⁷Ο δε ηρνηθη, λεγων· Γυναι, δεν γνωριζω αυτον.

⁵⁷He denied Jesus, saying, “Woman, I don’t know him.”

⁵⁸Και μετ' ολιγον αλλος τις ιδων αυτον, ειπε· Και συ εξ αυτων εισαι. Ο δε Πετρος ειπεν· Ανθρωπε, δεν ειμαι.

⁵⁸After a little while someone else saw him, and said, “You also are one of them!” But Peter answered, “Man, I am not!”

⁵⁹Και αφου επερασεν ως μια ωρα, αλλος τις διισχυριζετο, λεγων· Επ' αληθειας και ουτος μετ' αυτου ητο· διοτι Γαλιλαιος ειναι.

⁵⁹After about one hour passed, another confidently affirmed, saying, “Truly this man also was with him, for he is a Galilean!”

⁶⁰Ειπε δε ο Πετρος· Ανθρωπε, δεν εξευρω τι λεγεις. Και παρευθυς, ενω αυτος ελαλει ετι, εφωναξεν ο αλεκτωρ.

⁶⁰But Peter said, “Man, I don’t know what you are talking about!” Immediately, while he was still speaking, a rooster crowed.

⁶¹Και στραφεις ο Κυριος ενεβλεψεν εις τον Πετρον, και ενεθυμηθη ο Πετρος τον λογον του Κυριου, οτι ειπε προς αυτον οτι πριν φωναξη ο αλεκτωρ, θελεις με απαρνηθη τρις.

⁶¹The Lord turned, and looked at Peter. Then Peter remembered the Lord’s word, how he said to him, “Before the rooster crows you will deny me three times.”

⁶²Και εξελθων εξω ο Πετρος εκλαυσε πικρως.

⁶²He went out, and wept bitterly.

⁶³[] Και οι ανδρες οι κρατουντες τον Ιησουν ενεπαιζον αυτον δεροντες,

⁶³The men who held Jesus mocked him and beat him.

⁶⁴και περικαλυψαντες αυτον ερραπιζον το προσωπον αυτου και ηρωτων αυτον, λεγοντες· Προφητευσον τις ειναι οστις σε εκτυπησε;

⁶⁴Having blindfolded him, they struck him on the face and asked him, “Prophesy! Who is the one who struck you?”

⁶⁵Και αλλα πολλα βλασφημουντες ελεγον εις αυτον.

⁶⁵They spoke many other things against him, insulting him.

⁶⁶Και καθως εγεινεν ημερα, συνηχθη το πρεσβυτεριον του λαου, αρχιερεις τε και γραμματεις, και ανεβιβασαν αυτον εις το συνεδριον αυτων, λεγοντες·

⁶⁶As soon as it was day, the assembly of the elders of the people was gathered together, both chief priests and scribes, and they led him away into their council, saying,

⁶⁷Συ εισαι ο Χριστος; ειπε προς ημας· ειπε δε προς αυτους. Εαν σας ειπω, δεν θελετε πιστευσει,

⁶⁷“If you are the Christ, tell us.” But he said to them, “If I tell you, you won’t believe,

⁶⁸εαν δε και ερωτησω, δεν θελετε μοι αποκριθη ουδε θελετε με απολυσει·

⁶⁸ and if I ask, you will in no way answer me or let me go.

⁶⁹απο του νυν θελει εισθαι ο Υιος του ανθρωπου καθημενος εκ δεξιων της δυναμεως του Θεου.

⁶⁹ From now on, the Son of Man will be seated at the right hand of the power of God.”

⁷⁰Ειπον δε παντες· Συ λοιπον εισαι ο Υιος του Θεου; Ο δε ειπε προς αυτους· Σεις λεγετε οτι εγω ειμαι.

⁷⁰They all said, “Are you then the Son of God?” He said to them, “You say it, because I am.”

⁷¹Οι δε ειπον· Τι χρειαν εχομεν πλεον μαρτυριας; διοτι ημεις αυτοι ηκουσαμεν απο του στοματος αυτου.

⁷¹They said, “Why do we need any more witness? For we ourselves have heard from his own mouth!”
