| 1 | Now the publicans and sinners drew near unto him to hear him. | Erant autem appropinquantes ei publicani, et peccatores ut audirent illum. | Ἦσαν δὲ ἐγγίζοντες αὐτῷ πάντες οἱ τελῶναι καὶ [οἱ] ἁμαρτωλοὶ ἀκούειν αὐτοῦ. |
| 2 | And the Pharisees and the scribes murmured, saying: This man receiveth sinners, and eateth with them. | Et murmurabant pharisaei, et scribae, dicentes: Quia hic peccatores recipit, et manducat cum illis. | καὶ διεγόγγυζον οἱ Φαρισαῖοι καὶ οἱ γραμματεῖς λέγοντες ὅτι οὗτος ἁμαρτωλοὺς προσδέχεται καὶ συνεσθίει αὐτοῖς. |
| 3 | And he spoke to them this parable, saying: | Et ait ad illos parabolam istam dicens: | εἶπε δὲ πρὸς αὐτοὺς τὴν παραβολὴν ταύτην λέγων· |
| 4 | What man of you that hath an hundred sheep: and if he shall lose one of them, doth he not leave the ninety-nine in the desert, and go after that which was lost, until he find it? | Quis ex vobis homo, qui habet centum oves, et si perdiderit unam ex illis, nonne dimittit nonaginta novem in deserto, et vadit ad illam quae perierat, donec inveniat eam? | τίς ἄνθρωπος ἐξ ὑμῶν ἔχων ἑκατὸν πρόβατα, καὶ ἀπολέσας ἓν ἐξ αὐτῶν, οὐ καταλείπει τὰ ἐνενήκοντα ἐννέα ἐν τῇ ἐρήμῳ καὶ πορεύεται ἐπὶ τὸ ἀπολωλὸς ἕως οὗ εὕρῃ αὐτό; |
| 5 | And when he hath found it, lay it upon his shoulders, rejoicing: | Et cum invenerit eam, imponit in humeros suos gaudens: | καὶ εὑρὼν ἐπιτίθησιν ἐπὶ τοὺς ὤμους αὐτοῦ χαίρων, |
| 6 | And coming home, call together his friends and neighbours, saying to them: Rejoice with me, because I have found my sheep that was lost? | et veniens domum convocat amicos et vicinos, dicens illis: Congratulamini mihi, quia inveni ovem meam, quae perierat. | καὶ ἐλθὼν εἰς τὸν οἶκον συγκαλεῖ τοὺς φίλους καὶ τοὺς γείτονας λέγων αὐτοῖς· συγχάρητέ μοι ὅτι εὗρον τὸ πρόβατόν μου τὸ ἀπολωλός. |
| 7 | I say to you, that even so there shall be joy in heaven upon one sinner that doth penance, more than upon ninety-nine just who need not penance. | Dico vobis quod ita gaudium erit in caelo super uno peccatore poenitentiam agente, quam super nonaginta novem iustis, qui non indigent poenitentia. | λέγω ὑμῖν ὅτι οὕτω χαρὰ ἔσται ἐν τῷ οὐρανῷ ἐπὶ ἑνὶ ἁμαρτωλῷ μετανοοῦντι ἢ ἐπὶ ἐνενήκοντα ἐννέα δικαίοις, οἵτινες οὐ χρείαν ἔχουσι μετανοίας. |
| 8 | Or what woman having ten groats; if she lose one groat, doth not light a candle, and sweep the house, and seek diligently until she find it? | Aut quae mulier habens drachmas decem, si perdiderit drachmam unam, nonne accendit lucernam, et everrit domum, et quaerit diligenter, donec inveniat? | Ἢ τίς γυνὴ δραχμὰς ἔχουσα δέκα, ἐὰν ἀπολέσῃ δραχμὴν μίαν, οὐχὶ ἅπτει λύχνον καὶ σαροῖ τὴν οἰκίαν καὶ ζητεῖ ἐπιμελῶς ἕως ὅτου εὕρῃ; |
| 9 | And when she hath found it, call together her friends and neighbours, saying: Rejoice with me, because I have found the groat which I had lost. | Et cum invenerit convocat amicas et vicinas, dicens: Congratulamini mihi, quia inveni drachmam quam perdideram. | καὶ εὑροῦσα συγκαλεῖ τὰς φίλας καὶ τὰς γείτονας λέγουσα· συγχάρητέ μοι ὅτι εὗρον τὴν δραχμὴν ἣν ἀπώλεσα. |
| 10 | So I say to you, there shall be joy before the angels of God upon one sinner doing penance. | Ita, dico vobis, gaudium erit coram angelis Dei super uno peccatore poenitentiam agente. | οὕτω, λέγω ὑμῖν, χαρὰ γίνεται ἐνώπιον τῶν ἀγγέλων τοῦ Θεοῦ ἐπὶ ἑνὶ ἁμαρτωλῷ μετανοοῦντι. |
| 11 | And he said: A certain man had two sons: | Ait autem: Homo quidam habuit duos filios: | Εἶπε δέ· ἄνθρωπός τις εἶχε δύο υἱούς. |
| 12 | And the younger of them said to his father: Father, give me the portion of substance that falleth to me. And he divided unto them his substance. | et dixit adolescentior ex illis patri: Pater, da mihi portionem substantiae, quae me contingit. Et divisit illis substantiam. | καὶ εἶπεν ὁ νεώτερος αὐτῶν τῷ πατρί· πάτερ, δός μοι τὸ ἐπιβάλλον μέρος τῆς οὐσίας. καὶ διεῖλεν αὐτοῖς τὸν βίον. |
| 13 | And not many days after, the younger son, gathering all together, went abroad into a far country: and there wasted his substance, living riotously. | Et non post multos dies, congregatis omnibus, adolescentior filius peregre profectus est in regionem longinquam, et ibi dissipavit substantiam suam vivendo luxuriose. | καὶ μετ᾽ οὐ πολλὰς ἡμέρας συναγαγὼν ἅπαντα ὁ νεώτερος υἱὸς ἀπεδήμησεν εἰς χώραν μακράν, καὶ ἐκεῖ διεσκόρπισε τὴν οὐσίαν αὐτοῦ ζῶν ἀσώτως. |
| 14 | And after he had spent all, there came a mighty famine in that country; and he began to be in want. | Et postquam omnia consummasset, facta est fames valida in regione illa, et ipse coepit egere. | δαπανήσαντος δὲ αὐτοῦ πάντα ἐγένετο λιμὸς ἰσχυρὸς κατὰ τὴν χώραν ἐκείνην, καὶ αὐτὸς ἤρξατο ὑστερεῖσθαι. |
| 15 | And he went and cleaved to one of the citizens of that country. And he sent him into his farm to feed swine. | Et abiit, et adhaesit uni civium regionis illius: et misit illum in villam suam ut pasceret porcos. | καὶ πορευθεὶς ἐκολλήθη ἑνὶ τῶν πολιτῶν τῆς χώρας ἐκείνης, καὶ ἔπεμψεν αὐτὸν εἰς τοὺς ἀγροὺς αὐτοῦ βόσκειν χοίρους. |
| 16 | And he would fain have filled his belly with the husks the swine did eat; and no man gave unto him. | Et cupiebat implere ventrem suum de siliquis, quas porci manducabant: et nemo illi dabat. | καὶ ἐπεθύμει γεμίσαι τὴν κοιλίαν αὐτοῦ ἀπὸ τῶν κερατίων ὧν ἤσθιον οἱ χοῖροι, καὶ οὐδεὶς ἐδίδου αὐτῷ. |
| 17 | And returning to himself, he said: How many hired servants in my father’s house abound with bread, and I here perish with hunger? | In se autem reversus, dixit: Quanti mercenarii in domo patris mei abundant panibus, ego autem hic fame pereo! | εἰς ἑαυτὸν δὲ ἐλθὼν εἶπε· πόσοι μίσθιοι τοῦ πατρός μου περισσεύουσιν ἄρτων, ἐγὼ δὲ λιμῷ ἀπόλλυμαι! |
| 18 | I will arise, and will go to my father, and say to him: Father, I have sinned against heaven, and before thee: | surgam, et ibo ad patrem meum, et dicam ei: Pater, peccavi in caelum, et coram te: | ἀναστὰς πορεύσομαι πρὸς τὸν πατέρα μου καὶ ἐρῶ αὐτῷ· πάτερ, ἥμαρτον εἰς τὸν οὐρανὸν καὶ ἐνώπιόν σου. |
| 19 | I am not worthy to be called thy son: make me as one of thy hired servants. | iam non sum dignus vocari filius tuus: fac me sicut unum de mercenariis tuis. | οὐκέτι εἰμὶ ἄξιος κληθῆναι υἱός σου· ποίησόν με ὡς ἕνα τῶν μισθίων σου. |
| 20 | And rising up he came to his father. And when he was yet a great way off, his father saw him, and was moved with compassion, and running to him fell upon his neck, and kissed him. | Et surgens venit ad patrem suum. Cum autem adhuc longe esset, vidit illum pater ipsius, et misericordia motus est, et accurrens cecidit super collum eius, et osculatus est eum. | καὶ ἀναστὰς ἦλθε πρὸς τὸν πατέρα αὐτοῦ. ἔτι δὲ αὐτοῦ μακρὰν ἀπέχοντος εἶδεν αὐτὸν ὁ πατὴρ αὐτοῦ καὶ ἐσπλαγχνίσθη, καὶ δραμὼν ἐπέπεσεν ἐπὶ τὸν τράχηλον αὐτοῦ καὶ κατεφίλησεν αὐτόν. |
| 21 | And the son said to him: Father, I have sinned against heaven, and before thee, I am not now worthy to be called thy son. | Dixitque ei filius: Pater, peccavi in caelum, et coram te: iam non sum dignus vocari filius tuus. | εἶπε δὲ αὐτῷ ὁ υἱός· πάτερ, ἥμαρτον εἰς τὸν οὐρανὸν καὶ ἐνώπιόν σου, καὶ οὐκέτι εἰμὶ ἄξιος κληθῆναι υἱός σου. |
| 22 | And the father said to his servants: Bring forth quickly the first robe, and put it on him, and put a ring on his hand, and shoes on his feet: | Dixit autem pater ad servos suos: Cito proferte stolam primam, et induite illum, et date annulum in manum eius, et calceamenta in pedes eius: | εἶπε δὲ ὁ πατὴρ πρὸς τοὺς δούλους αὐτοῦ· ἐξενέγκατε τὴν στολὴν τὴν πρώτην καὶ ἐνδύσατε αὐτόν, καὶ δότε δακτύλιον εἰς τὴν χεῖρα αὐτοῦ καὶ ὑποδήματα εἰς τοὺς πόδας, |
| 23 | And bring hither the fatted calf, and kill it, and let us eat and make merry: | et adducite vitulum saginatum, et occidite, et manducemus, et epulemur: | καὶ ἐνέγκαντες τὸν μόσχον τὸν σιτευτὸν θύσατε, καὶ φαγόντες εὐφρανθῶμεν, |
| 24 | Because this my son was dead, and is come to life again: was lost, and is found. And they began to be merry. | quia hic filius meus mortuus erat, et revixit: perierat, et inventus est. Et coeperunt epulari. | ὅτι οὗτος ὁ υἱός μου νεκρὸς ἦν καὶ ἀνέζησε, καὶ ἀπολωλὼς ἦν καὶ εὑρέθη. καὶ ἤρξαντο εὐφραίνεσθαι. |
| 25 | Now his elder son was in the field, and when he came and drew nigh to the house, he heard music and dancing: | Erat autem filius eius senior in agro: et cum veniret, et appropinquaret domui, audivit symphoniam et chorum: | Ἦν δὲ ὁ υἱὸς αὐτοῦ ὁ πρεσβύτερος ἐν ἀγρῷ· καὶ ὡς ἐρχόμενος ἤγγισε τῇ οἰκίᾳ, ἤκουσε συμφωνίας καὶ χορῶν, |
| 26 | And he called one of the servants, and asked what these things meant. | et vocavit unum de servis, et interrogavit quid haec essent. | καὶ προσκαλεσάμενος ἕνα τῶν παίδων ἐπυνθάνετο τί εἴη ταῦτα. |
| 27 | And he said to him: Thy brother is come, and thy father hath killed the fatted calf, because he hath received him safe. | Isque dixit illi: Frater tuus venit, et occidit pater tuus vitulum saginatum, quia salvum illum recepit. | ὁ δὲ εἶπεν αὐτῷ ὅτι ὁ ἀδελφός σου ἥκει καὶ ἔθυσεν ὁ πατήρ σου τὸν μόσχον τὸν σιτευτόν, ὅτι ὑγιαίνοντα αὐτὸν ἀπέλαβεν. |
| 28 | And he was angry, and would not go in. His father therefore coming out began to entreat him. | Indignatus est autem, et nolebat introire. Pater ergo illius egressus, coepit rogare illum. | ὠργίσθη δὲ καὶ οὐκ ἤθελεν εἰσελθεῖν. ὁ οὖν πατὴρ αὐτοῦ ἐξελθὼν παρεκάλει αὐτόν. |
| 29 | And he answering, said to his father: Behold, for so many years do I serve thee, and I have never transgressed thy commandment, and yet thou hast never given me a kid to make merry with my friends: | At ille respondens, dixit patri suo: Ecce tot annis servio tibi, et numquam mandatum tuum praeterivi: et numquam dedisti mihi haedum ut cum amicis meis epularer. | ὁ δὲ ἀποκριθεὶς εἶπε τῷ πατρί· ἰδοὺ τοσαῦτα ἔτη δουλεύω σοι καὶ οὐδέποτε ἐντολήν σου παρῆλθον, καὶ ἐμοὶ οὐδέποτε ἔδωκας ἔριφον ἵνα μετὰ τῶν φίλων μου εὐφρανθῶ· |
| 30 | But as soon as this thy son is come, who hath devoured his substance with harlots, thou hast killed for him the fatted calf. | Sed postquam filius tuus hic, qui devoravit substantiam suam cum meretricibus, venit, occidisti illi vitulum saginatum. | ὅτε δὲ ὁ υἱός σου οὗτος, ὁ καταφαγών σου τὸν βίον μετὰ πορνῶν, ἦλθεν, ἔθυσας αὐτῷ τὸν μόσχον τὸν σιτευτόν. |
| 31 | But he said to him: Son, thou art always with me, and all I have is thine. | At ipse dixit illi: Fili, tu semper mecum es, et omnia mea tua sunt: | ὁ δὲ εἶπεν αὐτῷ· τέκνον, σὺ πάντοτε μετ᾽ ἐμοῦ εἶ, καὶ πάντα τὰ ἐμὰ σά ἐστιν· |
| 32 | But it was fit that we should make merry and be glad, for this thy brother was dead and is come to life again; he was lost, and is found. | epulari autem, et gaudere oportebat, quia frater tuus hic mortuus erat, et revixit; perierat, et inventus est. | εὐφρανθῆναι δὲ καὶ χαρῆναι ἔδει, ὅτι ὁ ἀδελφός σου οὗτος νεκρὸς ἦν καὶ ἀνέζησε, καὶ ἀπολωλὼς ἦν καὶ εὑρέθη. |
