| [1]AND he spake a parable to his disciples: There was a certain rich man who had a house-chief;ⓘ and he was accused to him that his substance he wasted. |
[1]ἔλεγεν δὲ καὶ πρὸς τοὺς μαθητάς, ἄνθρωπός τις ἦν πλούσιος ὃς εἶχεν οἰκονόμον, καὶ οὖτος διεβλήθη αὐτῶ ὡς διασκορπίζων τὰ ὑπάρχοντα αὐτοῦ. |
| [2]And his lord called him, and said to him, What is this that I hear of thee? give me the account of thy house-headship; for thou canst no longer be house-chief unto me. |
[2]καὶ φωνήσας αὐτὸν εἶπεν αὐτῶ, τί τοῦτο ἀκούω περὶ σοῦ; ἀπόδος τὸν λόγον τῆς οἰκονομίας σου, οὐ γὰρ δύνῃ ἔτι οἰκονομεῖν. |
| [3]And the house-chief said within himself, What shall I do? for my lord taketh from me the house-headship. I cannot dig, and to beg I am ashamed. |
[3]εἶπεν δὲ ἐν ἑαυτῶ ὁ οἰκονόμος, τί ποιήσω, ὅτι ὁ κύριός μου ἀφαιρεῖται τὴν οἰκονομίαν ἀπ᾽ ἐμοῦ; σκάπτειν οὐκ ἰσχύω, ἐπαιτεῖν αἰσχύνομαι. |
| [4]I know what I will do, that when I shall be put out of the house-headship, they may receive me into their houses. |
[4]ἔγνων τί ποιήσω, ἵνα ὅταν μετασταθῶ ἐκ τῆς οἰκονομίας δέξωνταί με εἰς τοὺς οἴκους αὐτῶν. |
| [5]And he called one by one from the debtors of his lord, and said to the first, How much owest thou to my lord? |
[5]καὶ προσκαλεσάμενος ἕνα ἕκαστον τῶν χρεοφειλετῶν τοῦ κυρίου ἑαυτοῦ ἔλεγεν τῶ πρώτῳ, πόσον ὀφείλεις τῶ κυρίῳ μου; |
| [6]And he said to him, An hundred metres of oil. He saith to him, Take thy book, and sit down quickly, and write fifty metres. |
[6]ὁ δὲ εἶπεν, ἑκατὸν βάτους ἐλαίου. ὁ δὲ εἶπεν αὐτῶ, δέξαι σου τὰ γράμματα καὶ καθίσας ταχέως γράψον πεντήκοντα. |
| [7]And he said to another, And thou, how much owest thou to my lord? He saith to him, An hundred kureenⓘ of wheat. He saith to him, Take thy book, and sit down, write eighty kureen. |
[7]ἔπειτα ἑτέρῳ εἶπεν, σὺ δὲ πόσον ὀφείλεις; ὁ δὲ εἶπεν, ἑκατὸν κόρους σίτου. λέγει αὐτῶ, δέξαι σου τὰ γράμματα καὶ γράψον ὀγδοήκοντα. |
| [8]And praised our Lord the house-chief who was unjust, in that he had done wisely; for the sons of this world are wiser than the sons of light in this their generation. |
[8]καὶ ἐπῄνεσεν ὁ κύριος τὸν οἰκονόμον τῆς ἀδικίας ὅτι φρονίμως ἐποίησεν· ὅτι οἱ υἱοὶ τοῦ αἰῶνος τούτου φρονιμώτεροι ὑπὲρ τοὺς υἱοὺς τοῦ φωτὸς εἰς τὴν γενεὰν τὴν ἑαυτῶν εἰσιν. |
| [9]Also I say unto you, Make to you friends from this wealth of unrighteousness, that, when perfect, they may receive you into the tabernacles of eternity. |
[9]καὶ ἐγὼ ὑμῖν λέγω, ἑαυτοῖς ποιήσατε φίλους ἐκ τοῦ μαμωνᾶ τῆς ἀδικίας, ἵνα ὅταν ἐκλίπῃ δέξωνται ὑμᾶς εἰς τὰς αἰωνίους σκηνάς. |
| [10]Whoever in the little is faithful, in the great also is faithful; and he who in the little is unjust, in the great also is unjust. |
[10]ὁ πιστὸς ἐν ἐλαχίστῳ καὶ ἐν πολλῶ πιστός ἐστιν, καὶ ὁ ἐν ἐλαχίστῳ ἄδικος καὶ ἐν πολλῶ ἄδικός ἐστιν. |
| [11]If, therefore, in the wealth of unrighteousness you have not been faithful, the truth to you who will confide? |
[11]εἰ οὗν ἐν τῶ ἀδίκῳ μαμωνᾷ πιστοὶ οὐκ ἐγένεσθε, τὸ ἀληθινὸν τίς ὑμῖν πιστεύσει; |
| [12]And if in that which is not yours you are not found faithful, your own who will give to you? |
[12]καὶ εἰ ἐν τῶ ἀλλοτρίῳ πιστοὶ οὐκ ἐγένεσθε, τὸ ὑμέτερον τίς ὑμῖν δώσει; |
| [13]No man can serve two lords; for either the one he will hate, and the other he will love; or the one he will honour, and the other despise. You cannot serve Aloha and wealth. |
[13]οὐδεὶς οἰκέτης δύναται δυσὶ κυρίοις δουλεύειν· ἢ γὰρ τὸν ἕνα μισήσει καὶ τὸν ἕτερον ἀγαπήσει, ἢ ἑνὸς ἀνθέξεται καὶ τοῦ ἑτέρου καταφρονήσει. οὐ δύνασθε θεῶ δουλεύειν καὶ μαμωνᾷ. |
| [14]But the Pharishee, when they heard all these things, because they loved money, derided him. |
[14]ἤκουον δὲ ταῦτα πάντα οἱ φαρισαῖοι φιλάργυροι ὑπάρχοντες, καὶ ἐξεμυκτήριζον αὐτόν. |
| [15]But Jeshu said to them, You are they who justify yourselves before the sons of men; but Aloha knoweth your hearts. For, what is exalted among men, before Aloha is abominable. |
[15]καὶ εἶπεν αὐτοῖς, ὑμεῖς ἐστε οἱ δικαιοῦντες ἑαυτοὺς ἐνώπιον τῶν ἀνθρώπων, ὁ δὲ θεὸς γινώσκει τὰς καρδίας ὑμῶν· ὅτι τὸ ἐν ἀνθρώποις ὑψηλὸν βδέλυγμα ἐνώπιον τοῦ θεοῦ. |
| [16]The law and the prophets were until Juchanon; from thenceforth the kingdom of Aloha is preached, and every one presseth to enter. |
[16]ὁ νόμος καὶ οἱ προφῆται μέχρι ἰωάννου· ἀπὸ τότε ἡ βασιλεία τοῦ θεοῦ εὐαγγελίζεται καὶ πᾶς εἰς αὐτὴν βιάζεται. |
| [17]But it is easier for heaven and earth to pass away than one letter from the law to pass away. |
[17]εὐκοπώτερον δέ ἐστιν τὸν οὐρανὸν καὶ τὴν γῆν παρελθεῖν ἢ τοῦ νόμου μίαν κεραίαν πεσεῖν. |
| [18]Every one who looseth his wife, and taketh another, committeth adultery; and every one who taketh the dismissed, committeth adultery. |
[18]πᾶς ὁ ἀπολύων τὴν γυναῖκα αὐτοῦ καὶ γαμῶν ἑτέραν μοιχεύει, καὶ ὁ ἀπολελυμένην ἀπὸ ἀνδρὸς γαμῶν μοιχεύει. |
| [19]NOW there was a certain rich man, and he was clothed in byssosⓘ and purple, and every day feasted gaily.ⓘ |
[19]ἄνθρωπος δέ τις ἦν πλούσιος, καὶ ἐνεδιδύσκετο πορφύραν καὶ βύσσον εὐφραινόμενος καθ᾽ ἡμέραν λαμπρῶς. |
| [20]And there was a certain poor man, whose name was Lo�zar; and he lay at the gate of him who was rich, bruised with wounds, |
[20]πτωχὸς δέ τις ὀνόματι λάζαρος ἐβέβλητο πρὸς τὸν πυλῶνα αὐτοῦ εἱλκωμένος |
| [21]And desired to fill his belly with the crumbs which fell from the table of that rich. And also the dogs came and licked his wounds. |
[21]καὶ ἐπιθυμῶν χορτασθῆναι ἀπὸ τῶν πιπτόντων ἀπὸ τῆς τραπέζης τοῦ πλουσίου· ἀλλὰ καὶ οἱ κύνες ἐρχόμενοι ἐπέλειχον τὰ ἕλκη αὐτοῦ. |
| [22]Now that poor man died, and angels conducted him to the bosom of Abraham: but that rich man also died, and was buried. |
[22]ἐγένετο δὲ ἀποθανεῖν τὸν πτωχὸν καὶ ἀπενεχθῆναι αὐτὸν ὑπὸ τῶν ἀγγέλων εἰς τὸν κόλπον ἀβραάμ· ἀπέθανεν δὲ καὶ ὁ πλούσιος καὶ ἐτάφη. |
| [23]And, tormented in shiul, he lifted up his eyes afar, and seeth Abraham, and Lo�zar in his bosom. |
[23]καὶ ἐν τῶ ᾅδῃ ἐπάρας τοὺς ὀφθαλμοὺς αὐτοῦ, ὑπάρχων ἐν βασάνοις, ὁρᾷ ἀβραὰμ ἀπὸ μακρόθεν καὶ λάζαρον ἐν τοῖς κόλποις αὐτοῦ. |
| [24]And he cried with a high voice, and said, My father Abraham, have compassion upon me, and send Lo�zar, that he may dip the top of his finger in waters, and moisten my tongue; for, behold, I am tormented in this flame. |
[24]καὶ αὐτὸς φωνήσας εἶπεν, πάτερ ἀβραάμ, ἐλέησόν με καὶ πέμψον λάζαρον ἵνα βάψῃ τὸ ἄκρον τοῦ δακτύλου αὐτοῦ ὕδατος καὶ καταψύξῃ τὴν γλῶσσάν μου, ὅτι ὀδυνῶμαι ἐν τῇ φλογὶ ταύτῃ. |
| [25]Abraham said to him, My son, remember that thou didst receive thy goods in thy life, and Lo�zar his evils, and now, behold, he reposeth here, and thou art tormented. |
[25]εἶπεν δὲ ἀβραάμ, τέκνον, μνήσθητι ὅτι ἀπέλαβες τὰ ἀγαθά σου ἐν τῇ ζωῇ σου, καὶ λάζαρος ὁμοίως τὰ κακά· νῦν δὲ ὧδε παρακαλεῖται σὺ δὲ ὀδυνᾶσαι. |
| [26]And with all these, there is a great void set between us and you, that they who would pass from hence unto you are not able, nor they also who would pass from thence to us. |
[26]καὶ ἐν πᾶσι τούτοις μεταξὺ ἡμῶν καὶ ὑμῶν χάσμα μέγα ἐστήρικται, ὅπως οἱ θέλοντες διαβῆναι ἔνθεν πρὸς ὑμᾶς μὴ δύνωνται, μηδὲ ἐκεῖθεν πρὸς ἡμᾶς διαπερῶσιν. |
| [27]He said to him, I pray thee, then, my father, to send him unto my father's house: |
[27]εἶπεν δέ, ἐρωτῶ σε οὗν, πάτερ, ἵνα πέμψῃς αὐτὸν εἰς τὸν οἶκον τοῦ πατρός μου, |
| [28]For five brethren have I; let him go and testify unto them, that they also come not to this place of torment. |
[28]ἔχω γὰρ πέντε ἀδελφούς, ὅπως διαμαρτύρηται αὐτοῖς, ἵνα μὴ καὶ αὐτοὶ ἔλθωσιν εἰς τὸν τόπον τοῦτον τῆς βασάνου. |
| [29]Abraham said to him, They have Musha and the prophets, let them hear them. |
[29]λέγει δὲ ἀβραάμ, ἔχουσι μωϊσέα καὶ τοὺς προφήτας· ἀκουσάτωσαν αὐτῶν. |
| [30]But he said to him, No, my father Abraham, but if one from the dead shall go unto them, they repent. |
[30]ὁ δὲ εἶπεν, οὐχί, πάτερ ἀβραάμ, ἀλλ᾽ ἐάν τις ἀπὸ νεκρῶν πορευθῇ πρὸς αὐτοὺς μετανοήσουσιν. |
| [31]Abraham saith to him, If Musha and the prophets they hear not, neither, if one from the dead should rise, would they believe him. |
[31]εἶπεν δὲ αὐτῶ, εἰ μωϊσέως καὶ τῶν προφητῶν οὐκ ἀκούουσιν, οὐδ᾽ ἐάν τις ἐκ νεκρῶν ἀναστῇ πεισθήσονται. |
