οὐδέν Nothing δέ now συγκεκαλυμμένον concealed up ἐστίν is, ὅ which οὐ not ἀποκαλυφθήσεται will be revealed, καί nor κρυπτόν hidden ὅ which οὐ not γνωσθήσεται. will be known. ἀνθ ̓ Instead, ὧν that ὅσα whatever ἐν in τῇ the σκοτίᾳ darkness εἴπατε you have said, ἐν in τῷ the φωτί light ἀκουσθήσεται, will be heard; καί and ὅ what πρός into τό the οὖς ear ἐλαλήσατε you have spoken ἐν in τοῖς the ταμείοις inner rooms κηρυχθήσεται will be proclaimed ἐπί upon τῶν the δωμάτων. housetops.

Ὅταν When δέ then εἰσφέρωσιν they bring ὑμᾶς you ἐπί before τάς the συναγωγάς synagogues, καί and τάς the ἀρχάς rulers, καί and τάς the ἐξουσίας, authorities, μή not μεριμνήσητε be anxious πῶς how ἤ or τί what ἀπολογήσησθε you shall reply in defense, ἤ or τί what εἴπητε· you should say; τό the γάρ for Ἅγιον Holy Πνεῦμα Spirit διδάξει will teach ὑμᾶς you ἐν in αὐτῇ same τῇ the ὥρᾳ hour ἅ what δεῖ it behooves [you] εἰπεῖν. to say.

Εἶπεν He spoke δέ then παραβολήν a parable πρός to αὐτούς them, λέγων· saying, Ἀνθρώπου Of a man τινός certain πλουσίου rich εὐφόρησεν brought forth abundantly ἡ the χώρα. ground. καί And διελογίζετο he was reasoning ἐν within ἑαυτῷ himself, λέγων· saying, Τί What ποιήσω, shall I do, ὅτι for οὐ not ἔχω I have ποῦ where συνάξω I will store up τούς the καρπούς fruits μου; of me? καί And εἶπεν· he said, Τοῦτο This ποιήσω, will I do: καθελῶ I will tear down μου my τάς - ἀποθήκας barns καί and μείζονας greater οἰκοδομήσω will build, καί and συνάξω will store up ἐκεῖ there πάντα all τόν the σῖτον grain καί and τά the ἀγαθά goods μου of me. καί And ἐρῶ I will say τῇ to the ψυχῇ soul μου· of me, Ψυχή, Soul, ἔχεις you have πολλά many ἀγαθά good things κείμενα laid up εἰς for ἔτη years πολλά· many; ἀναπαύου, take your rest; φάγε, eat, πίε, drink, εὐφραίνου. be merry. Εἶπεν Said δέ then αὐτῷ to him ὁ - Θεός· God, Ἄφρων, Fool! ταύτῃ This τῇ - νυκτί night, τήν the ψυχήν soul σου of you ἀπαιτοῦσιν is required ἀπό of σοῦ· you; ἅ what δέ now ἡτοίμασας, you did prepare — τίνι to whom ἔσται; will [it] be? Οὕτως So [is] ὁ the [one] θησαυρίζων treasuring up ἑαυτῷ for himself, καί and μή not εἰς toward Θεόν God πλουτῶν. being rich.

Εἶπεν He said δέ then πρός to τούς the μαθητάς disciples αὐτοῦ· of Him, Διά Because of τοῦτο this λέγω I say ὑμῖν· to you, μή not μεριμνᾶτε be anxious τῇ for the ψυχῇ life, τί what φάγητε, you should eat, μηδέ nor τῷ for the σώματι body τί what ἐνδύσησθε. you should put on. ἡ The γάρ for ψυχή life πλεῖον more than ἐστίν is τῆς the τροφῆς food, καί and τό the σῶμα body τοῦ than the ἐνδύματος. clothing. κατανοήσατε Consider τούς the κόρακας ravens, ὅτι that οὐ not σπείρουσιν they sow οὐδέ nor θερίζουσιν, reap; οἷς to them οὐ not ἔστιν there is ταμεῖον a storehouse οὐδέ nor ἀποθήκη, barn — καί and ὁ - Θεός God τρέφει feeds αὐτούς· them. πόσῳ How much μᾶλλον more ὑμεῖς you διαφέρετε are valuable τῶν than the πετεινῶν. birds! τίς Which δέ now ἐκ of ὑμῶν you, μεριμνῶν being anxious, δύναται is able ἐπί to τήν the ἡλικίαν lifespan αὐτοῦ of him προσθεῖναι to add πῆχυν; one hour? εἰ If οὖν then οὐδέ not even ἐλάχιστον [the] least δύνασθε, you are able [to do], τί why περί about τῶν the λοιπῶν rest μεριμνᾶτε; are you anxious? Κατανοήσατε Consider τά the κρίνα lilies, πῶς how αὐξάνει· they grow: οὐ Not κοπιᾷ do they labor, οὐδέ nor νήθει· do they spin. λέγω I say δέ however ὑμῖν, to you, οὐδέ not even Σολομών Solomon ἐν in πάσῃ all τῇ the δόξῃ glory αὐτοῦ of him περιεβάλετο was arrayed ὡς as ἕν one τούτων. of these. εἰ If δέ however ἐν in [the] ἀγρῷ field τόν the χόρτον grass, ὄντα being [here] σήμερον today καί and αὔριον tomorrow εἰς into κλίβανον the furnace βαλλόμενον being thrown, ὁ - Θεός God οὕτως thus ἀμφιέζει, clothes, πόσῳ how much μᾶλλον more ὑμᾶς, you, ὀλιγόπιστοι. O [you] of little faith! Καί And ὑμεῖς you μή not ζητεῖτε seek τί what φάγητε you might eat, καί and τί what πίητε you might drink, καί and μή not μετεωρίζεσθε· be in suspense; ταῦτα these things γάρ for πάντα all τά the ἔθνη nations τοῦ of the κόσμου world ἐπιζητοῦσιν, seek after; ὑμῶν of you δέ now ὁ the Πατήρ Father οἶδεν knows ὅτι that χρῄζετε you have need τούτων. of these. πλήν But ζητεῖτε seek you τήν the βασιλείαν kingdom αὐτοῦ, of Him, καί and ταῦτα these things προστεθήσεται will be added ὑμῖν. to you. Μή Not φοβοῦ, fear, τό - μικρόν little ποίμνιον, flock, ὅτι for εὐδόκησεν took delight ὁ the Πατήρ Father ὑμῶν of you δοῦναι to give ὑμῖν you τήν the βασιλείαν. kingdom.

Πωλήσατε Sell τά the ὑπάρχοντα possessions ὑμῶν of you καί and δότε give ἐλεημοσύνην· alms; ποιήσατε make ἑαυτοῖς to yourselves βαλλάντια purses μή not παλαιούμενα, growing old, θησαυρόν a treasure ἀνέκλειπτον unfailing ἐν in τοῖς the οὐρανοῖς, heavens, ὅπου where κλέπτης thief οὐ not ἐγγίζει does draw near, οὐδέ nor σής moth διαφθείρει· destroy. ὅπου Where γάρ for ἐστίν is ὁ the θησαυρός treasure ὑμῶν, of you, ἐκεῖ there καί also ἡ the καρδία heart ὑμῶν of you ἔσται. will be.

Ἔστωσαν Let be ὑμῶν your αἱ - ὀσφύες waist περιεζωσμέναι girded about, καί and οἱ the λύχνοι lamps καιόμενοι· burning; καί and ὑμεῖς you, ὅμοιοι like ἀνθρώποις to men προσδεχομένοις waiting for τόν the κύριον master ἑαυτῶν of themselves, πότε whenever ἀναλύσῃ he shall return ἐκ from τῶν the γάμων, wedding feasts, ἵνα that ἐλθόντος having come καί and κρούσαντος having knocked, εὐθέως immediately ἀνοίξωσιν they might open αὐτῷ. to him. μακάριοι Blessed [are] οἱ the δοῦλοι servants ἐκεῖνοι, those, οὕς whom ἐλθών having come, ὁ the κύριος master εὑρήσει will find γρηγοροῦντας· watching. ἀμήν Truly λέγω I say ὑμῖν to you ὅτι that περιζώσεται he will gird himself καί and ἀνακλινεῖ will make recline αὐτούς them, καί and παρελθών having come up, διακονήσει will serve αὐτοῖς. them. κἄν And if ἐν in τῇ the δευτέρᾳ second κἄν and if ἐν in τῇ the τρίτῃ third φυλακῇ watch ἔλθῃ he comes καί and εὕρῃ finds [them] οὕτως, thus, μακάριοι blessed εἰσίν are ἐκεῖνοι. those! Τοῦτο This δέ however γινώσκετε know, ὅτι that εἰ if ᾔδει had known ὁ the οἰκοδεσπότης master of the house ποίᾳ in what ὥρᾳ hour ὁ the κλέπτης thief ἔρχεται, is coming, οὐ not ἄν - ἀφῆκεν he would have allowed διορυχθῆναι to be broken into τόν the οἶκον house αὐτοῦ. of him. καί Also ὑμεῖς you γίνεσθε be ἕτοιμοι, ready; ὅτι for ᾗ in the ὥρᾳ hour οὐ not δοκεῖτε you expect, ὁ the Υἱός Son τοῦ - ἀνθρώπου of Man ἔρχεται. comes.

Εἶπεν Said δέ then ὁ - Πέτρος· Peter, Κύριε, Lord, πρός to ἡμᾶς us τήν the παραβολήν parable ταύτην this λέγεις speak You, ἤ or καί also πρός to πάντας; all? Καί And εἶπεν said ὁ the Κύριος· Lord, Τίς Who ἄρα then ἐστίν is ὁ the πιστός faithful οἰκονόμος manager ὁ [and] the φρόνιμος, wise, ὅν whom καταστήσει will set ὁ the κύριος master ἐπί over τῆς the θεραπείας care [of servants] αὐτοῦ of him, τοῦ - διδόναι to give [them] ἐν in καιρῷ season τό the σιτομέτριον; measure of food? μακάριος Blessed [is] ὁ the δοῦλος servant ἐκεῖνος, that ὅν whom ἐλθών having come, ὁ the κύριος master αὐτοῦ of him εὑρήσει will find ποιοῦντα doing οὕτως. thus.
