Read the Gospels in 40 Days

17 · kai Six hex days hēmera later meta Jesus Iēsous took paralambanō · ho · ho Peter Petros and kai James Iakōbos and kai John Iōannēs · ho his autos brother adelphos, and kai led anapherō them autos up a very high hypsēlos mountain oros by kata themselves idios. ² And kai he was transfigured metamorphoō before emprosthen them autos, and kai his autos face prosōpon shone lampō · ho like hōs the ho sun hēlios, · ho and de his autos clothes himation became ginomai white leukos as hōs · ho light phōs. ³ · kai Suddenly idou there appeared horaō to them autos Moses Mōysēs and kai Elijah ēlias, talking syllaleō with meta him autos. ⁴ And de Peter Petros spoke apokrinomai · ho to ho Jesus Iēsous, saying legō, “ Lord kyrios, it is eimi good kalos that we hēmeis are eimi here hōde. If ei you wish thelō, I will put poieō up three treis shelters skēnē here hōde— one heis for you sy, · kai one heis for Moses Mōysēs, and kai one heis for Elijah ēlias.” ⁵ While he autos was still eti speaking laleō, a bright phōteinos cloud nephelē overshadowed episkiazō them autos and kai a voice phōnē from ek the ho cloud nephelē said legō, “ This houtos is eimi · ho my egō Son hyios, the ho Beloved agapētos, in en whom hos I am well pleased eudokeō; listen akouō to him autos!” ⁶ And kai when the ho disciples mathētēs heard akouō this, they were phobeomai overcome sphodra with fear phobeomai and kai fell piptō on epi their autos faces prosōpon. ⁷ But kai Jesus Iēsous came proserchomai over · ho and kai touched haptō them autos, saying legō, “ Rise egeirō, and kai do not mē be afraid phobeomai.” ⁸ And de when they raised epairō · ho their autos eyes ophthalmos, they saw no oudeis one except ei mē Jesus Iēsous himself autos alone monos.

⁹ And kai as they autos were coming katabainō down from ek the ho mountain oros, Jesus Iēsous commanded entellō them autos, · ho saying legō, “ Tell legō the ho vision horama to no mēdeis one until heōs hos the ho Son hyios of ho Man anthrōpos has been raised egeirō from ek the dead nekros.” ¹⁰ And kai the ho disciples mathētēs asked eperōtaō him autos, saying legō, “ Why tis then oun do the ho scribes grammateus say legō that hoti Elijah ēlias must dei come erchomai first prōton?” ¹¹ He ho · de answered apokrinomai, saying legō, “ To be sure men, Elijah ēlias does come erchomai, and kai he will restore apokathistēmi all pas things . ¹² And de I tell legō you hymeis that hoti Elijah ēlias has come erchomai already ēdē, and kai they did not ou recognize epiginōskō him autos, but alla did poieō to en him autos whatever hosos they wished thelō. So houtōs also kai the ho Son hyios of ho Man anthrōpos will mellō suffer paschō at hypo their autos hands.” ¹³ Then tote the ho disciples mathētēs understood syniēmi that hoti he had spoken legō to them autos about peri John Iōannēs the ho Baptist baptistēs.

¹⁴ · kai When they returned erchomai to pros the ho crowd ochlos, a man anthrōpos approached proserchomai Jesus autos, knelt gonypeteō before him autos, ¹⁵ and kai said legō, “ Lord kyrios, take eleeō pity on my egō · ho son hyios, because hoti he is an epileptic selēniazomai and kai suffers paschō terribly kakōs; for gar he often pollakis falls piptō into eis the ho fire pyr and kai often pollakis into eis the ho water hydōr. ¹⁶ And kai I brought prospherō him autos to ho your sy disciples mathētēs but kai they could dynamai not ou heal therapeuō him autos.” ¹⁷ Jesus Iēsous answered apokrinomai, · de · ho saying legō, “ O ō unbelieving apistos and kai perverse diastrephō generation genea, how long heōs am I to be eimi with meta you hymeis? How long heōs must I put anechōmai up with you hymeis? Bring pherō him autos here hōde to me egō.” ¹⁸ Then kai Jesus Iēsous rebuked epitimaō the ho demon daimonion · ho and kai it came exerchomai out of apo him autos; and kai the ho boy pais was healed therapeuō from apo · ho that ekeinos hour hōra. ¹⁹ Then tote the ho disciples mathētēs came proserchomai to ho Jesus Iēsous privately kata idios and said legō, “ Why dia tis could dynamai we hēmeis not ou cast ekballō it autos out?” ²⁰ He ho · de said legō to them autos, “ Because dia of the ho poverty oligopistia of your hymeis faith . I tell legō you hymeis the truth amēn, if ean you have echō faith pistis the size hōs of a mustard sinapi seed kokkos, you can say legō to ho this houtos mountain oros, ‘ Move metabainō from here enthen to there ekei,’ and kai it will move metabainō; and kai nothing oudeis will be impossible adynateō for you hymeis.”

²² While they autos were still together systrephō · de in en · ho Galilee Galilaia, Jesus Iēsous said legō to them autos, · ho “ The ho Son hyios of ho Man anthrōpos is about mellō to be delivered paradidōmi into eis the hands cheir of men anthrōpos, ²³ and kai they will kill apokteinō him autos, and kai on the ho third tritos day hēmera he will be raised egeirō.” And kai they were greatly sphodra distressed lypeō.

²⁴ And de when they autos arrived erchomai at eis Capernaum Kapharnaoum, the ho collectors lambanō of the ho temple tax didrachmon came proserchomai to ho Peter Petros and kai said legō, “ Does · ho your hymeis teacher didaskalos not ou pay teleō the ho two-drachma didrachmon tax?” ²⁵ “ Yes nai,” he answered legō. And kai when he went erchomai into eis the ho house oikia, Jesus Iēsous spoke prophthanō to Peter autos first , · ho saying legō, “ What tis do you sy think dokeō, Simon Simōn? From apo whom tis do · ho earthly gē kings basileus · ho collect lambanō tolls telos or ē taxes kēnsos— from apo · ho their autos sons hyios or ē from apo · ho outsiders allotrios?” ²⁶ And de when he answered legō, “ From apo · ho outsiders allotrios,” Jesus Iēsous said phēmi to him autos, · ho “ Then ara the ho sons hyios are eimi exempt eleutheros. ²⁷ But lest hina · de we offend skandalizō them autos, go poreuō to eis the sea thalassa, cast ballō in a hook ankistron, and kai take airō the first prōtos fish ichthus that ho comes anabainō up . · kai When you have opened anoigō · ho its autos mouth stoma, you will find heuriskō a four drachma coin statēr; take lambanō it ekeinos and give didōmi it to them autos for anti me egō and kai you sy.”

18 At en that ekeinos · ho time hōra the ho disciples mathētēs came proserchomai to ho Jesus Iēsous, saying legō, “ Who tis then ara is eimi the greatest megas in en the ho kingdom basileia of ho heaven ouranos?” ² · kai Jesus invited proskaleō a child paidion to come to him, and placing histēmi him autos in en their autos midst mesos, ³ · kai said legō, “ I tell legō you hymeis the truth amēn, unless ean mē you change strephō and kai become ginomai like hōs · ho children paidion, you will never ou mē enter eiserchomai the ho kingdom basileia of ho heaven ouranos! ⁴ For oun whoever hostis humbles tapeinoō himself heautou as hōs · ho this houtos child paidion is eimi · ho greatest megas in en the ho kingdom basileia of ho heaven ouranos. ⁵ And kai whoever hos ean welcomes dechomai a heis child paidion like toioutos this in epi · ho my egō name onoma welcomes dechomai me egō. ⁶ But de whoever hos causes skandalizō one heis of ho these houtos little mikros ones who ho believe pisteuō in eis me egō to sin, it would be better sympherō for him autos to hina have a large onikos millstone mylos hung kremannymi around peri · ho his autos neck trachēlos and kai be drowned katapontizō far out pelagos at en · ho · ho sea thalassa. ⁷ Woe ouai to the ho world kosmos because apo of the ho things that cause people to sin skandalon! It is inevitable anankē that such ho things skandalon come erchomai, but plēn woe ouai to the ho one anthrōpos through dia whom hos they ho skandalon come erchomai!

⁸ “ If ei · de · ho your sy hand cheir or ē · ho your sy foot pous causes skandalizō you sy to sin, cut ekkoptō it autos off and kai throw ballō it away apo sy; it is eimi better kalos for you sy to enter eiserchomai · ho life zōē crippled kyllos or ē lame chōlos than ē with echō two dyo hands cheir or ē two dyo feet pous to be thrown ballō into eis · ho eternal aiōnios fire pyr. · ho ⁹ And kai if ei · ho your sy eye ophthalmos causes skandalizō you sy to sin, gouge exaireō it autos out and kai throw ballō it away apo sy; it is eimi better kalos for you sy to enter eiserchomai life zōē with one monophthalmos eye · ho than ē with echō two dyo eyes ophthalmos to be thrown ballō into eis the ho hell geenna of ho fire pyr.

¹⁰ “ See horaō that you do not mē despise kataphroneō one heis of ho these houtos little mikros ones . For gar I tell legō you hymeis that hoti · ho their autos angels angelos in en heaven ouranos always dia pas see blepō the ho face prosōpon of ho my egō Father patēr who ho is in en heaven ouranos. ¹² What tis do you hymeis think dokeō? If ean a tis man anthrōpos has ginomai a hundred hekaton sheep probaton and kai one heis of ek them autos goes planaō astray , will he not ouchi leave aphiēmi the ho ninety-nine enenēkonta ennea on epi the ho slopes oros and kai go poreuō in search zēteō of the ho one planaō that has wandered off ? ¹³ And kai if ean he finds ginomai it autos, I tell legō you hymeis the truth amēn, he will rejoice chairō over epi it autos more mallon than ē over epi the ho ninety-nine enenēkonta ennea that ho did not mē go planaō astray . ¹⁴ In the same houtōs way , it is eimi not ou the will thelēma of ho your hymeis Father patēr · ho in en heaven ouranos that hina even one heis of ho these houtos little ones mikros should perish apollymi.

¹⁵ “ If ean · de your sy brother adelphos sins hamartanō, · ho go hypagō and point elenchō out his autos fault between metaxy you sy and kai him autos alone monos. If ean he listens to akouō you sy, you have won kerdainō back · ho your sy brother adelphos. ¹⁶ But de if ean he does not mē listen akouō, take paralambanō one heis or ē two dyo others eti with meta you sy so hina that every pas matter rhēma may be confirmed histēmi on epi the evidence stoma of two dyo or ē three treis witnesses martys. ¹⁷ If ean · de he refuses parakouō to listen to them autos, tell legō it to the ho church ekklēsia; and de if ean he refuses to listen parakouō even kai to parakouō the ho church ekklēsia, you sy are to treat eimi him as hōsper a ho pagan ethnikos and kai a ho tax telōnēs collector .

¹⁸ “ I tell legō you hymeis the truth amēn, whatever hosos ean you bind deō on epi · ho earth gē will eimi have been bound deō in en heaven ouranos, and kai whatever hosos ean you loose lyō on epi · ho earth gē will eimi have been loosed lyō in en heaven ouranos. ¹⁹ “ Again palin, I tell legō you hymeis the truth amēn, if ean two dyo of ek you hymeis on epi earth gē are in agreement symphōneō · ho about peri anything pas pragma whatever hos ean you may ask aiteō, it will be done ginomai for you autos by para · ho my egō Father patēr who ho is in en heaven ouranos. ²⁰ For gar where hou two dyo or ē three treis are eimi gathered synagō in eis · ho my emos name onoma, I am eimi there ekei in en their autos midst mesos.”

²¹ Then tote Peter Petros came proserchomai to · ho Jesus autos and said legō, “ Lord kyrios, how posakis often must I forgive aphiēmi my egō brother adelphos when he sins hamartanō against eis me egō? · ho · kai Up heōs to seven heptakis times ?” ²² Jesus Iēsous said legō to him autos, · ho “ I do not ou say legō to you sy, up heōs to seven heptakis times , but alla up heōs to seventy hebdomēkontakis times seven hepta. ²³ Therefore dia houtos the ho kingdom basileia of ho heaven ouranos is like homoioō a king basileus who hos decided thelō to settle synairō accounts logos with meta · ho his autos servants. ²⁴ And de when he autos had begun archō to settle synairō them, a man heis who owed opheiletēs ten thousand myrios talents talanton was brought prospherō to him autos. ²⁵ And de since he autos did not mē have echō the means to repay apodidōmi the debt, his ho master kyrios commanded keleuō that he autos be sold pipraskō along kai with his ho wife gynē and kai · ho children teknon and kai everything pas hosos he had echō, and kai that payment apodidōmi be made . ²⁶ So oun the ho servant fell piptō to the ground prostate proskyneō before him autos, saying legō, ‘ Have makrothumeō patience with epi me egō, and kai I will repay apodidōmi you sy everything pas.’ ²⁷ Moved splanchnizomai with compassion , · de the ho master kyrios of ho that ekeinos servant released apolyō him autos and kai forgave aphiēmi him autos the ho debt daneion. ²⁸ But de that ho same ekeinos servant then went out exerchomai and found heuriskō one heis of ho his autos fellow syndoulos servants who hos owed opheilō him autos a hundred hekaton denarii dēnarion; and kai seizing krateō him autos by the throat began to choke pnigō him, saying legō, ‘ Pay apodidōmi back what ei tis you owe opheilō.’ ²⁹ Therefore oun his autos fellow servant syndoulos fell piptō to the ground · ho and pleaded parakaleō with him autos, saying legō ‘ Have makrothumeō patience with epi me egō, and kai I will repay apodidōmi you sy.’ ³⁰ But de he ho refused ou thelō. Instead alla, he went aperchomai and threw ballō him autos in eis prison phylakē until heōs he should pay apodidōmi back the ho debt opheilō. ³¹ So oun when his autos fellow servants syndoulos saw · ho what ho had happened ginomai, they became indignant lypeō and kai went erchomai and told diasapheō · ho their heautou master kyrios all pas that ho had taken place ginomai. ³² Then tote his autos master kyrios called proskaleō him autos in · ho and said legō to him autos, ‘You wicked ponēros servant! I forgave aphiēmi you sy all pas · ho that ekeinos debt opheilē because epei you pleaded parakaleō with me egō. ³³ And should dei not ou you sy also kai have had mercy eleeō on · ho your sy fellow syndoulos servant , even as hōs I kagō had mercy on eleeō you sy?’ ³⁴ And kai in anger orgizō · ho his autos master kyrios handed paradidōmi him autos over to the ho prison basanistēs guards to torture him until heōs hos he should pay apodidōmi back all pas · ho he owed opheilō. ³⁵ So houtōs also kai will · ho my egō heavenly ouranios Father patēr · ho do poieō to you hymeis, unless ean mē you each hekastos forgive aphiēmi · ho your autos brother adelphos from apo · ho your hymeis heart kardia.”
