Matthew 11

Authored by: American Standard Version
11:1
Και εγενετο οτε ετελεσεν ο Ιησους διατασσων τοις δωδεκα μαθηταις αυτου μετεβη εκειθεν του διδασκειν και κηρυσσειν εν ταις πολεσιν αυτων
And it came to pass when Jesus had finished commanding his twelve disciples, he departed thence to teach and preach in their cities.
11:2
Ο δε Ιωαννης ακουσας εν τω δεσμωτηριω τα εργα του Χριστου πεμψας δια των μαθητων αυτου
Now when John heard in the prison the works of the Christ, he sent by his disciples
11:3
ειπεν αυτω Συ ει ο ερχομενος η ετερον προσδοκωμεν
and said unto him, Art thou he that cometh, or look we for another?
11:4
Και αποκριθεις ο Ιησους ειπεν αυτοις Πορευθεντες απαγγειλατε Ιωαννη α ακουετε και βλεπετε
And Jesus answered and said unto them, Go and tell John the things which ye hear and see:
11:5
τυφλοι αναβλεπουσιν και χωλοι περιπατουσιν λεπροι καθαριζονται και κωφοι ακουουσιν και νεκροι εγειρονται και πτωχοι ευαγγελιζονται
the blind receive their sight, and the lame walk, the lepers are cleansed, and the deaf hear, and the dead are raised up, and the poor have good tidings preached to them.
11:6
και μακαριος εστιν ος εαν μη σκανδαλισθη εν εμοι
And blessed is he, whosoever shall find no occasion of stumbling in me.
11:7
Τουτων δε πορευομενων ηρξατο ο Ιησους λεγειν τοις οχλοις περι Ιωαννου Τι εξηλθατε εις την ερημον θεασασθαι καλαμον υπο ανεμου σαλευομενον
And as these went their way, Jesus began to say unto the multitudes concerning John, What went ye out into the wilderness to behold? a reed shaken with the wind?
11:8
αλλα τι εξηλθατε ιδειν ανθρωπον εν μαλακοις ημφιεσμενον ιδου οι τα μαλακα φορουντες εν τοις οικοις των βασιλεων εισιν
But what went ye out to see? a man clothed in soft raiment? Behold, they that wear soft raiment are in kings’ houses.
11:9
αλλα τι εξηλθατε ιδειν προφητην ναι λεγω υμιν και περισσοτερον προφητου
But wherefore went ye out? to see a prophet? Yea, I say unto you, and much more than a prophet.
11:10
ουτος εστιν περι ου γεγραπται Ιδου εγω αποστελλω τον αγγελον μου προ προσωπου σου Ος κατασκευασει την οδον σου εμπροσθεν σου
This is he, of whom it is written, Behold, I send my messenger before thy face, Who shall prepare thy way before thee.
11:11
Αμην λεγω υμιν ουκ εγηγερται εν γεννητοις γυναικων μειζων Ιωαννου του Βαπτιστου ο δε μικροτερος εν τη βασιλεια των ουρανων μειζων αυτου εστιν
Verily I say unto you, Among them that are born of women there hath not arisen a greater than John the Baptist: yet he that is but little in the kingdom of heaven is greater than he.
11:12
απο δε των ημερων Ιωαννου του Βαπτιστου εως αρτι η βασιλεια των ουρανων βιαζεται και βιασται αρπαζουσιν αυτην
And from the days of John the Baptist until now the kingdom of heaven suffereth violence, and men of violence take it by force.
11:13
παντες γαρ οι προφηται και ο νομος εως Ιωαννου επροφητευσαν
For all the prophets and the law prophesied until John.
11:14
και ει θελετε δεξασθαι αυτος εστιν Ηλιας ο μελλων ερχεσθαι
And if ye are willing to receive it, this is Elijah, that is to come.
11:15
Ο εχων ωτα ακουετω
He that hath ears to hear, let him hear.
11:16
Τινι δε ομοιωσω την γενεαν ταυτην ομοια εστιν παιδιοις καθημενοις εν ταις αγοραις α προσφωνουντα τοις ετεροις
But whereunto shall I liken this generation? It is like unto children sitting in the marketplaces, who call unto their fellows
11:17
λεγουσιν Ηυλησαμεν υμιν Και ουκ ωρχησασθε Εθρηνησαμεν Και ουκ εκοψασθε
and say, We piped unto you, and ye did not dance; we wailed, and ye did not mourn.
11:18
Ηλθεν γαρ Ιωαννης μητε εσθιων μητε πινων και λεγουσιν Δαιμονιον εχει
For John came neither eating nor drinking, and they say, He hath a demon.
11:19
ηλθεν ο Υιος του ανθρωπου εσθιων και πινων και λεγουσιν Ιδου ανθρωπος φαγος και οινοποτης τελωνων φιλος και αμαρτωλων και εδικαιωθη η σοφια απο των εργων αυτης
The Son of man came eating and drinking, and they say, Behold, a gluttonous man and a winebibber, a friend of publicans and sinners! And wisdom is justified by her works.
11:20
Τοτε ηρξατο ονειδιζειν τας πολεις εν αις εγενοντο αι πλεισται δυναμεις αυτου οτι ου μετενοησαν
Then began he to upbraid the cities wherein most of his mighty works were done, because they repented not.
11:21
Ουαι σοι Χοραζιν ουαι σοι Βηθσαιδα οτι ει εν Τυρω και Σιδωνι εγενοντο αι δυναμεις αι γενομεναι εν υμιν παλαι αν εν σακκω και σποδω μετενοησαν
Woe unto thee, Chorazin! woe unto thee, Bethsaida! for if the mighty works had been done in Tyre and Sidon which were done in you, they would have repented long ago in sackcloth and ashes.
11:22
πλην λεγω υμιν Τυρω και Σιδωνι ανεκτοτερον εσται εν ημερα κρισεως η υμιν
But I say unto you, it shall be more tolerable for Tyre and Sidon in the day of judgment, than for you.
11:23
Και συ Καφαρναουμ μη εως ουρανου υψωθηση εως αδου καταβηση οτι ει εν Σοδομοις εγενηθησαν αι δυναμεις αι γενομεναι εν σοι εμεινεν αν μεχρι της σημερον
And thou, Capernaum, shalt thou be exalted unto heaven? thou shalt go down unto Hades: for if the mighty works had been done in Sodom which were done in thee, it would have remained until this day.
11:24
πλην λεγω υμιν οτι γη Σοδομων ανεκτοτερον εσται εν ημερα κρισεως η σοι
But I say unto you that it shall be more tolerable for the land of Sodom in the day of judgment, than for thee.
11:25
Εν εκεινω τω καιρω αποκριθεις ο Ιησους ειπεν Εξομολογουμαι σοι Πατερ Κυριε του ουρανου και της γης οτι εκρυψας ταυτα απο σοφων και συνετων και απεκαλυψας αυτα νηπιοις
At that season Jesus answered and said, I thank thee, O Father, Lord of heaven and earth, that thou didst hide these things from the wise and understanding, and didst reveal them unto babes:
11:26
ναι ο Πατηρ οτι ουτως ευδοκια εγενετο εμπροσθεν σου
yea, Father, for so it was well-pleasing in thy sight.
11:27
Παντα μοι παρεδοθη υπο του Πατρος μου και ουδεις επιγινωσκει τον Υιον ει μη ο Πατηρ ουδε τον Πατερα τις επιγινωσκει ει μη ο Υιος και ω εαν βουληται ο Υιος αποκαλυψαι
All things have been delivered unto me of my Father: and no one knoweth the Son, save the Father; neither doth any know the Father, save the Son, and he to whomsoever the Son willeth to reveal him.
11:28
Δευτε προς με παντες οι κοπιωντες και πεφορτισμενοι καγω αναπαυσω υμας
Come unto me, all ye that labor and are heavy laden, and I will give you rest.
1
11:29
αρατε τον ζυγον μου εφ υμας και μαθετε απ εμου οτι πραυς ειμι και ταπεινος τη καρδια και ευρησετε αναπαυσιν ταις ψυχαις υμων
Take my yoke upon you, and learn of me; for I am meek and lowly in heart: and ye shall find rest unto your souls.
11:30
ο γαρ ζυγος μου χρηστος και το φορτιον μου ελαφρον εστιν
For my yoke is easy, and my burden is light.
