Luke

Chapter 16

Phonetic (Greek): Ἔlegen de kai pros toys ⸀mathetas· Ἄnthropos tis en ploysios hos eichen oikonomon, kai ohytos dieblethe aytῷ hos diaskorpizon ta hyparchonta aytoy.

Edified Edition (EDE)He also said to His disciples: [JESUS]"There was a certain rich man who had a steward, and an accusation was brought to him that this man was wasting his goods.

Ἔλεγεν δὲ καὶ πρὸς τοὺς ⸀μαθητάς· Ἄνθρωπός τις ἦν πλούσιος ὃς εἶχεν οἰκονόμον, καὶ οὗτος διεβλήθη αὐτῷ ὡς διασκορπίζων τὰ ὑπάρχοντα αὐτοῦ.

Phonetic (Greek): kai phonesas ayton eipen aytῷ· Ti toyto akoyo peri soy; apodos ton logon tes oikonomias sou, oy gar ⸀dynῃ eti oikonomein.

Edified Edition (EDE)[JESUS]So he called him and said to him, ‘How is it that I hear this about you? Give an account of your stewardship, for you can no longer be steward.’

καὶ φωνήσας αὐτὸν εἶπεν αὐτῷ· Τί τοῦτο ἀκούω περὶ σοῦ; ἀπόδος τὸν λόγον τῆς οἰκονομίας σου, οὐ γὰρ ⸀δύνῃ ἔτι οἰκονομεῖν.

Phonetic (Greek): eipen de en heautῷ ho oikonomos· Ti poieso hoti ho kyrios mou aphaireitai ten oikonomian apʼ emoy; skaptein oyk ischyo, epaitein aischynomai·

Edified Edition (EDE)[JESUS]Then the steward said within himself, ‘What shall I do? For my lord is taking the stewardship away from me. I cannot dig; I am ashamed to beg.

εἶπεν δὲ ἐν ἑαυτῷ ὁ οἰκονόμος· Τί ποιήσω ὅτι ὁ κύριός μου ἀφαιρεῖται τὴν οἰκονομίαν ἀπʼ ἐμοῦ; σκάπτειν οὐκ ἰσχύω, ἐπαιτεῖν αἰσχύνομαι·

Phonetic (Greek): egnon ti poieso, hina hotan metastatho ⸀ek tes oikonomias dexontai me eis toys oikous ⸀heauton.

Edified Edition (EDE)[JESUS]I have resolved what to do, that when I am put out of the stewardship, they may receive me into their houses.’

ἔγνων τί ποιήσω, ἵνα ὅταν μετασταθῶ ⸀ἐκ τῆς οἰκονομίας δέξωνταί με εἰς τοὺς οἴκους ⸀ἑαυτῶν.

Phonetic (Greek): kai proskalesamenos hena hekaston ton chreopheileton toy kyriou heautoy elegen tῷ protῳ· Poson opheileis tῷ kyriῳ mou;

Edified Edition (EDE)[JESUS]So he called every one of his lord’s debtors to him and said to the first, ‘How much do you owe my lord?’

καὶ προσκαλεσάμενος ἕνα ἕκαστον τῶν χρεοφειλετῶν τοῦ κυρίου ἑαυτοῦ ἔλεγεν τῷ πρώτῳ· Πόσον ὀφείλεις τῷ κυρίῳ μου;

Phonetic (Greek): ho de eipen· Ἑkaton batous elaiou· ⸂ho de⸃ eipen aytῷ· Dexai sou ⸂ta grammata⸃ kai kathisas tacheos grapson pentekonta.

Edified Edition (EDE)[JESUS]And he said, ‘A hundred measures of oil.’ So he said to him, ‘Take your bill, and sit down quickly and write fifty.’

ὁ δὲ εἶπεν· Ἑκατὸν βάτους ἐλαίου· ⸂ὁ δὲ⸃ εἶπεν αὐτῷ· Δέξαι σου ⸂τὰ γράμματα⸃ καὶ καθίσας ταχέως γράψον πεντήκοντα.

Phonetic (Greek): epeita heterῳ eipen· Sy de poson opheileis; ho de eipen· Ἑkaton korous sitou· ⸀legei aytῷ· Dexai sou ⸂ta grammata⸃ kai grapson ogdoekonta.

Edified Edition (EDE)[JESUS]Then he said to another, ‘And how much do you owe?’ So he said, ‘A hundred measures of wheat.’ And he said to him, ‘Take your bill, and write eighty.’

ἔπειτα ἑτέρῳ εἶπεν· Σὺ δὲ πόσον ὀφείλεις; ὁ δὲ εἶπεν· Ἑκατὸν κόρους σίτου· ⸀λέγει αὐτῷ· Δέξαι σου ⸂τὰ γράμματα⸃ καὶ γράψον ὀγδοήκοντα.

Phonetic (Greek): kai epῄnesen ho kyrios ton oikonomon tes adikias hoti phronimos epoiesen· hoti ohi yhioi toy aionos toytou phronimoteroi hyper toys yhioys toy photos eis ten genean ten heauton eisin.

Edified Edition (EDE)[JESUS]So the master commended the unjust steward because he had dealt shrewdly. For the sons of this world are more shrewd in their generation than the sons of light.

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.

Phonetic (Greek): kai ego hymin lego, ⸂heautois poiesate⸃ philous ek toy mamona tes adikias, hina hotan ⸀eklipῃ dexontai hymas eis tas aionious skenas.

Edified Edition (EDE)[JESUS]And I say to you, make friends for yourselves by unrighteous mammon, that when you fail, they may receive you into an everlasting dwelling.

καὶ ἐγὼ ὑμῖν λέγω, ⸂ἑαυτοῖς ποιήσατε⸃ φίλους ἐκ τοῦ μαμωνᾶ τῆς ἀδικίας, ἵνα ὅταν ⸀ἐκλίπῃ δέξωνται ὑμᾶς εἰς τὰς αἰωνίους σκηνάς.

Phonetic (Greek): Ὁ pistos en elachistῳ kai en pollῷ pistos estin, kai ho en elachistῳ adikos kai en pollῷ adikos estin.

Edified Edition (EDE)[JESUS]He who is faithful in what is least is faithful also in much; and he who is unjust in what is least is unjust also in much.

Ὁ πιστὸς ἐν ἐλαχίστῳ καὶ ἐν πολλῷ πιστός ἐστιν, καὶ ὁ ἐν ἐλαχίστῳ ἄδικος καὶ ἐν πολλῷ ἄδικός ἐστιν.

Phonetic (Greek): ei oyn en tῷ adikῳ mamonᾷ pistoi oyk egenesthe, to alethinon tis hymin pisteysei;

Edified Edition (EDE)[JESUS]Therefore if you have not been faithful in the unrighteous mammon, who will commit to your trust the true riches?

εἰ οὖν ἐν τῷ ἀδίκῳ μαμωνᾷ πιστοὶ οὐκ ἐγένεσθε, τὸ ἀληθινὸν τίς ὑμῖν πιστεύσει;

Phonetic (Greek): kai ei en tῷ allotriῳ pistoi oyk egenesthe, to ⸀hymeteron tis ⸂dosei hymin⸃;

Edified Edition (EDE)[JESUS]And if you have not been faithful in what is another man’s, who will give you what is your own?

καὶ εἰ ἐν τῷ ἀλλοτρίῳ πιστοὶ οὐκ ἐγένεσθε, τὸ ⸀ὑμέτερον τίς ⸂δώσει ὑμῖν⸃;

Phonetic (Greek): oydeis oiketes dynatai dysi kyriois douleyein· e gar ton hena misesei kai ton heteron agapesei, e henos anthexetai kai toy heterou kataphronesei. oy dynasthe theῷ douleyein kai mamonᾷ.

Edified Edition (EDE)[JESUS]No servant can serve two masters; for either he will hate the one and love the other, or else he will be loyal to the one and despise the other. You cannot serve God and mammon.’[/JESUS]

οὐδεὶς οἰκέτης δύναται δυσὶ κυρίοις δουλεύειν· ἢ γὰρ τὸν ἕνα μισήσει καὶ τὸν ἕτερον ἀγαπήσει, ἢ ἑνὸς ἀνθέξεται καὶ τοῦ ἑτέρου καταφρονήσει. οὐ δύνασθε θεῷ δουλεύειν καὶ μαμωνᾷ.

Phonetic (Greek): Ἤkouon de tayta ⸀panta ohi Pharisaioi philargyroi hyparchontes, kai exemykterizon ayton.

Edified Edition (EDE)Now the Pharisees, who were lovers of money, also heard all these things, and they derided Him.

Ἤκουον δὲ ταῦτα ⸀πάντα οἱ Φαρισαῖοι φιλάργυροι ὑπάρχοντες, καὶ ἐξεμυκτήριζον αὐτόν.

Phonetic (Greek): kai eipen aytois· Ὑmeis este ohi dikaioyntes heautoys enopion ton anthropon, ho de theos ginoskei tas kardias hymon· hoti to en anthropois hypselon bdelygma enopion toy theoy.

Edified Edition (EDE)And He said to them: [JESUS]"You are those who justify yourselves before men, but God knows your hearts. For what is highly esteemed among men is an abomination in the sight of God.

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.

Phonetic (Greek): Ὁ nomos kai ohi prophetai ⸀mechri Ἰoannou· apo tote he basileia toy theoy eyangelizetai kai pas eis ayten biazetai.

Edified Edition (EDE)[JESUS]The law and the prophets were until John. Since that time the kingdom of God is being preached, and everyone is pressing into it.

Ὁ νόμος καὶ οἱ προφῆται ⸀μέχρι Ἰωάννου· ἀπὸ τότε ἡ βασιλεία τοῦ θεοῦ εὐαγγελίζεται καὶ πᾶς εἰς αὐτὴν βιάζεται.

Phonetic (Greek): Eykopoteron de estin ton oyranon kai ten gen parelthein e toy nomou mian keraian pesein.

Edified Edition (EDE)[JESUS]And it is easier for heaven and earth to pass away than for one tittle of the law to fail.

Εὐκοπώτερον δέ ἐστιν τὸν οὐρανὸν καὶ τὴν γῆν παρελθεῖν ἢ τοῦ νόμου μίαν κεραίαν πεσεῖν.

Phonetic (Greek): Pas ho apolyon ten gynaika aytoy kai gamon heteran moicheyei, ⸀kai ho apolelymenen apo andros gamon moicheyei.

Edified Edition (EDE)[JESUS]Whoever divorces his wife and marries another commits adultery; and whoever marries her who is divorced from her husband commits adultery.

Πᾶς ὁ ἀπολύων τὴν γυναῖκα αὐτοῦ καὶ γαμῶν ἑτέραν μοιχεύει, ⸀καὶ ὁ ἀπολελυμένην ἀπὸ ἀνδρὸς γαμῶν μοιχεύει.

Phonetic (Greek): Ἄnthropos de tis en ploysios, kai enedidysketo porphyran kai bysson eyphrainomenos kathʼ hemeran lampros.

Edified Edition (EDE)[JESUS]There was a certain rich man who was clothed in purple and fine linen and fared sumptuously every day.

Ἄνθρωπος δέ τις ἦν πλούσιος, καὶ ἐνεδιδύσκετο πορφύραν καὶ βύσσον εὐφραινόμενος καθʼ ἡμέραν λαμπρῶς.

Phonetic (Greek): ptochos de ⸀tis onomati ⸀Lazaros ebebleto pros ton pylona aytoy ehilkomenos

Edified Edition (EDE)[JESUS]But there was a certain beggar named Lazarus, full of sores, who was laid at his gate,

πτωχὸς δέ ⸀τις ὀνόματι ⸀Λάζαρος ἐβέβλητο πρὸς τὸν πυλῶνα αὐτοῦ εἱλκωμένος

Phonetic (Greek): kai epithymon chortasthenai ⸀apo ton piptonton apo tes trapezes toy plousiou· alla kai ohi kynes erchomenoi ⸀epeleichon ta helke aytoy.

Edified Edition (EDE)[JESUS]desiring to be fed with the crumbs which fell from the rich man’s table. Moreover the dogs came and licked his sores.

καὶ ἐπιθυμῶν χορτασθῆναι ⸀ἀπὸ τῶν πιπτόντων ἀπὸ τῆς τραπέζης τοῦ πλουσίου· ἀλλὰ καὶ οἱ κύνες ἐρχόμενοι ⸀ἐπέλειχον τὰ ἕλκη αὐτοῦ.

Phonetic (Greek): egeneto de apothanein ton ptochon kai apenechthenai ayton hypo ton angelon eis ton kolpon Ἀbraam· apethanen de kai ho ploysios kai etaphe.

Edified Edition (EDE)[JESUS]So it was that the beggar died, and was carried by the angels to Abraham’s bosom. The rich man also died and was buried.

ἐγένετο δὲ ἀποθανεῖν τὸν πτωχὸν καὶ ἀπενεχθῆναι αὐτὸν ὑπὸ τῶν ἀγγέλων εἰς τὸν κόλπον Ἀβραάμ· ἀπέθανεν δὲ καὶ ὁ πλούσιος καὶ ἐτάφη.

Phonetic (Greek): kai en tῷ hadῃ eparas toys ophthalmoys aytoy, hyparchon en basanois, ⸀horᾷ Ἀbraam apo makrothen kai Lazaron en tois kolpois aytoy.

Edified Edition (EDE)[JESUS]And being in torments in Hades, he lifted up his eyes and saw Abraham afar off, and Lazarus in his bosom.

καὶ ἐν τῷ ᾅδῃ ἐπάρας τοὺς ὀφθαλμοὺς αὐτοῦ, ὑπάρχων ἐν βασάνοις, ⸀ὁρᾷ Ἀβραὰμ ἀπὸ μακρόθεν καὶ Λάζαρον ἐν τοῖς κόλποις αὐτοῦ.

Phonetic (Greek): kai aytos phonesas eipen· Pater Ἀbraam, eleeson me kai pempson Lazaron hina bapsῃ to akron toy daktylou aytoy hydatos kai katapsyxῃ ten glossan mou, hoti odynomai en tῇ phlogi taytῃ.

Edified Edition (EDE)[JESUS]Then he cried and said, ‘Father Abraham, have mercy on me, and send Lazarus that he may dip the tip of his finger in water and cool my tongue; for I am tormented in this flame.’

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.

Phonetic (Greek): eipen de Ἀbraam· Teknon, mnestheti hoti ⸀apelabes ta agatha sou en tῇ zoῇ sou, kai Lazaros homoios ta kaka· nyn de hode parakaleitai sy de odynasai.

Edified Edition (EDE)[JESUS]But Abraham said, ‘Son, remember that in your lifetime you received your good things, and likewise Lazarus evil things; but now he is comforted and you are tormented.

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.

Phonetic (Greek): kai ⸀en pasi toytois metaxy hemon kai hymon chasma mega esteriktai, hopos ohi thelontes diabenai enthen pros hymas me dynontai, ⸀mede ekeithen pros hemas diaperosin.

Edified Edition (EDE)[JESUS]And besides all this, between us and you there is a great gulf fixed, so that those who want to pass from here to you cannot, nor can those from there pass to us.’

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.

Phonetic (Greek): eipen de· Ἐroto ⸂se oyn⸃, pater, hina pempsῃs ayton eis ton oikon toy patros mou,

Edified Edition (EDE)[JESUS]Then he said, ‘I beg you therefore, father, that you would send him to my father’s house,

εἶπεν δέ· Ἐρωτῶ ⸂σε οὖν⸃, πάτερ, ἵνα πέμψῃς αὐτὸν εἰς τὸν οἶκον τοῦ πατρός μου,

Phonetic (Greek): echo gar pente adelphoys, hopos diamartyretai aytois, hina me kai aytoi elthosin eis ton topon toyton tes basanou.

Edified Edition (EDE)[JESUS]for I have five brothers, that he may testify to them, lest they also come to this place of torment.’

ἔχω γὰρ πέντε ἀδελφούς, ὅπως διαμαρτύρηται αὐτοῖς, ἵνα μὴ καὶ αὐτοὶ ἔλθωσιν εἰς τὸν τόπον τοῦτον τῆς βασάνου.

Phonetic (Greek): legei ⸀de Ἀbraam· Ἔchousi Moysea kai toys prophetas· akousatosan ayton.

Edified Edition (EDE)[JESUS]Abraham said to him, ‘They have Moses and the prophets; let them hear them.’

λέγει ⸀δὲ Ἀβραάμ· Ἔχουσι Μωϋσέα καὶ τοὺς προφήτας· ἀκουσάτωσαν αὐτῶν.

Phonetic (Greek): ho de eipen· Oychi, pater Ἀbraam, allʼ ean tis apo nekron poreuthῇ pros aytoys metanoesousin.

Edified Edition (EDE)[JESUS]And he said, ‘No, father Abraham; but if one goes to them from the dead, they will repent.’

ὁ δὲ εἶπεν· Οὐχί, πάτερ Ἀβραάμ, ἀλλʼ ἐάν τις ἀπὸ νεκρῶν πορευθῇ πρὸς αὐτοὺς μετανοήσουσιν.

Phonetic (Greek): eipen de aytῷ· Ei Moyseos kai ton propheton oyk akoyousin, oydʼ ean tis ek nekron anastῇ peisthesontai.

Edified Edition (EDE)[JESUS]But he said to him, ‘If they do not hear Moses and the prophets, neither will they be persuaded though one rise from the dead.’[/JESUS]

εἶπεν δὲ αὐτῷ· Εἰ Μωϋσέως καὶ τῶν προφητῶν οὐκ ἀκούουσιν, οὐδʼ ἐάν τις ἐκ νεκρῶν ἀναστῇ πεισθήσονται.
