1Καὶ ὅτε ἠγγισαν εἰς Ἱεροσόλυμα καὶ ἦλθον εἰς Βηθφαγὴ εἰς τὸ Ὄρος τῶν Ἐλαιῶν, τότε Ἰησοῦς ἀπέστειλεν δύο μαθητὰςAnd when they drew near to Jerusalem and came to Beth'phage, to the Mount of Olives, then Jesus sent two disciples,The Triumphal Entry into Jerusalem Mt.21.1-11 | Mk.11.1-11 | Lk.19.28-38 | Jn.12.12-19 | [ Mt.21.1-11 → ]
2λέγων αὐτοῖς, Πορεύεσθε εἰς τὴν κώμην τὴν κατέναντι ὑμῶν, καὶ εὐθέως εὑρήσετε ὀνον δεδεμένην καὶ πῶλον μετ' αὐτῆς· λύσαντες ἀγάγετέ μοι. saying to them, "Go into the village opposite you, and immediately you will find an ass tied, and a colt with her; untie them and bring them to me. 
3καὶ ἐάν τις ὑμῖν εἰπῃ τι, ἐρεῖτε ὅτι Ὁ κύριος αὐτῶν χρείαν ἐχει· εὐθὺς δὲ ἀποστελεῖ αὐτούς. If any one says anything to you, you shall say, 'The Lord has need of them,' and he will send them immediately." 
4Τοῦτο δὲ γέγονεν ἵνα πληρωθῇ τὸ ῥηθὲν διὰ τοῦ προφήτου λέγοντος, This took place to fulfil what was spoken by the prophet, saying, 
5Εἴπατε τῇ θυγατρὶ σιών,
Ἰδοὺ ὁ βασιλεύς σου ἔρχεταί σοι,
πραῢς καὶ ἐπιβεβηκὼς ἐπὶ ὄνον,
καὶ ἐπὶ πῶλον υἱὸν ὑποζυγίου.

6πορευθέντες δὲ οἱ μαθηταὶ καὶ ποιήσαντες καθὼς συνέταξεν αὐτοῖς ὁ Ἰησοῦς The disciples went and did as Jesus had directed them; 
7ἠγαγον τὴν ὀνον καὶ τὸν πῶλον, καὶ ἐπέθηκαν ἐπ' αὐτῶν τὰ ἱμάτια, καὶ ἐπεκάθισεν ἐπάνω αὐτῶν. they brought the ass and the colt, and put their garments on them, and he sat thereon. 
8ὁ δὲ πλεῖστος ὀχλος ἐστρωσαν ἑαυτῶν τὰ ἱμάτια ἐν τῇ ὁδῷ, ἀλλοι δὲ ἐκοπτον κλάδους ἀπὸ τῶν δένδρων καὶ ἐστρώννυον ἐν τῇ ὁδῷ. Most of the crowd spread their garments on the road, and others cut branches from the trees and spread them on the road. 
9οἱ δὲ ὀχλοι οἱ προάγοντες αὐτὸν καὶ οἱ ἀκολουθοῦντες ἐκραζον λέγοντες,
    Ὡσαννὰ τῷ υἱῷ Δαυίδ·
    Εὐλογημένος ὁ ἐρχόμενος ἐν ὀνόματι κυρίου·
    Ὡσαννὰ
    ἐν τοῖς ὑψίστοις.
And the crowds that went before him and that followed him shouted, "Hosanna to the Son of David! Blessed is he who comes in the name of the Lord! Hosanna in the highest!"- Hosanna to the Son of David Mt.21.9 | Ps.118.26
10καὶ εἰσελθόντος αὐτοῦ εἰς Ἱεροσόλυμα ἐσείσθη πᾶσα ἡ πόλις λέγουσα, Τίς ἐστιν οὗτος; And when he entered Jerusalem, all the city was stirred, saying, "Who is this?" 
11οἱ δὲ ὀχλοι ἐλεγον, Οὗτός ἐστιν ὁ προφήτης Ἰησοῦς ὁ ἀπὸ Ναζαρὲθ τῆς Γαλιλαίας. And the crowds said, "This is the prophet Jesus from Nazareth of Galilee." 
12Καὶ εἰσῆλθεν Ἰησοῦς εἰς τὸ ἱερόν, καὶ ἐξέβαλεν πάντας τοὺς πωλοῦντας καὶ ἀγοράζοντας ἐν τῷ ἱερῷ, καὶ τὰς τραπέζας τῶν κολλυβιστῶν κατέστρεψεν καὶ τὰς καθέδρας τῶν πωλού ντων τὰς περιστεράς, And Jesus entered the temple of God and drove out all who sold and bought in the temple, and he overturned the tables of the money-changers and the seats of those who sold pigeons.The Cleansing of the Temple. Mt.21.12-17 | Mk.11.15-19 | Lk.19.45-48 | Jn.2.13-22 | [ Mt.21.12-17 → ]

Ὁ οἶκός μου οἶκος προσευχῆς κληθήσεται,
ὑμεῖς δὲ αὐτὸν ποιεῖτε σπήλαιον λῃστῶν.
He said to them, "It is written, 'My house shall be called a house of prayer'; but you make it a den of robbers."- My house shall be called a house of prayer Mt.21.13 | Is.56.7 | Is.60.7 | Jr.7.11

14Καὶ προσῆλθον αὐτῷ τυφλοὶ καὶ χωλοὶ ἐν τῷ ἱερῷ, καὶ ἐθεράπευσεν αὐτούς. And the blind and the lame came to him in the temple, and he healed them. 
15ἰδόντες δὲ οἱ ἀρχιερεῖς καὶ οἱ γραμματεῖς τὰ θαυμάσια ἂ ἐποίησεν καὶ τοὺς παῖδας τοὺς κράζοντας ἐν τῷ ἱερῷ καὶ λέγοντας, Ὡσαννὰ τῷ υἱῷ Δαυίδ, ἠγανάκτησανBut when the chief priests and the scribes saw the wonderful things that he did, and the children crying out in the temple, "Hosanna to the Son of David!" they were indignant; 
16καὶ εἶπαν αὐτῷ, Ἀκούεις τί οὗτοι λέγουσιν; ὁ δὲ Ἰησοῦς λέγει αὐτοῖς, Ναί· οὐδέποτε ἀνέγνωτε ὅτι Ἐκ στόματος νηπίων καὶ θηλαζόντων κατηρτίσω αἶνον; and they said to him, "Do you hear what these are saying?" And Jesus said to them, "Yes; have you never read,

19καὶ ἰδὼν συκῆν μίαν ἐπὶ τῆς ὁδοῦ ἦλθεν ἐπ' αὐτήν, καὶ οὐδὲν εὗρεν ἐν αὐτῇ εἰ μὴ φύλλα μόνον, καὶ λέγει αὐτῇ, Μηκέτι ἐκ σοῦ καρπὸς γένηται εἰς τὸν αἰῶνα. καὶ ἐξ ηράνθη παραχρῆμα ἡ συκῆ. And seeing a fig tree by the wayside he went to it, and found nothing on it but leaves only. And he said to it, "May no fruit ever come from you again!" And the fig tree withered at once. 
20καὶ ἰδόντες οἱ μαθηταὶ ἐθαύμασαν λέγοντες, Πῶς παραχρῆμα ἐξηράνθη ἡ συκῆ; When the disciples saw it they marveled, saying, "How did the fig tree wither at once?" 
21ἀποκριθεὶς δὲ ὁ Ἰησοῦς εἶπεν αὐτοῖς, Ἀμὴν λέγω ὑμῖν, ἐὰν ἐχητε πίστιν καὶ μὴ διακριθῆτε, οὐ μόνον τὸ τῆς συκῆς ποιήσετε, ἀλλὰ κἂν τῷ ὀρει τούτῳ εἰπητε, ἀρθητι κ αὶ βλήθητι εἰς τὴν θάλασσαν, γενήσεται· And Jesus answered them, "Truly, I say to you, if you have faith and never doubt, you will not only do what has been done to the fig tree, but even if you say to this mountain, 'Be taken up and cast into the sea,' it will be done. 
22καὶ πάντα ὁσα ἂν αἰτήσητε ἐν τῇ προσευχῇ πιστεύοντες λήμψεσθε. And whatever you ask in prayer, you will receive, if you have faith." 
23Καὶ ἐλθόντος αὐτοῦ εἰς τὸ ἱερὸν προσῆλθον αὐτῷ διδάσκοντι οἱ ἀρχιερεῖς καὶ οἱ πρεσβύτεροι τοῦ λαοῦ λέγοντες, Ἐν ποίᾳ ἐξουσίᾳ ταῦτα ποιεῖς; καὶ τίς σοι ἐδωκεν τὴν ἐξου σίαν ταύτην; And when he entered the temple, the chief priests and the elders of the people came up to him as he was teaching, and said, "By what authority are you doing these things, and who gave you this authority?"The Authority of Jesus Questioned Mt.21.23-27 | Mk.11.27-33 | Lk.20.1-8 | [ Mt.21.23-27 → ]

24ἀποκριθεὶς δὲ ὁ Ἰησοῦς εἶπεν αὐτοῖς, Ἐρωτήσω ὑμᾶς κἀγὼ λόγον ἑνα, ὃν ἐὰν εἰπητέ μοι κἀγὼ ὑμῖν ἐρῶ ἐν ποίᾳ ἐξουσίᾳ ταῦτα ποιῶ· Jesus answered them, "I also will ask you a question; and if you tell me the answer, then I also will tell you by what authority I do these things. 
25τὸ βάπτισμα τὸ Ἰωάννου πόθεν ἦν; ἐξ οὐρανοῦ ἢ ἐξ ἀνθρώπων; οἱ δὲ διελογίζοντο ἐν ἑαυτοῖς λέγοντες, Ἐὰν εἰπωμεν, Ἐξ οὐρανοῦ, ἐρεῖ ἡμῖν, Διὰ τί οὖν οὐκ ἐπιστεύσατε αὐτῷ; The baptism of John, whence was it? From heaven or from men?" And they argued with one another, "If we say, 'From heaven,' he will say to us, 'Why then did you not believe him?' 
26ἐὰν δὲ εἰπωμεν, Ἐξ ἀνθρώπων, φοβούμεθα τὸν ὀχλον, πάντες γὰρ ὡς προφήτην ἐχουσιν τὸν Ἰωάννην. But if we say, 'From men,' we are afraid of the multitude; for all hold that John was a prophet." 
27καὶ ἀποκριθέντες τῷ Ἰησοῦ εἶπαν, Οὐκ οἰδαμεν. ἐφη αὐτοῖς καὶ αὐτός, Οὐδὲ ἐγὼ λέγω ὑμῖν ἐν ποίᾳ ἐξουσίᾳ ταῦτα ποιῶ. So they answered Jesus, "We do not know." And he said to them, "Neither will I tell you by what authority I do these things. 
28Τί δὲ ὑμῖν δοκεῖ; ἄνθρωπος εἶχεν τέκνα δύο. καὶ προσελθὼν τῷ πρώτῳ εἶπεν, Τέκνον, ὑπαγε σήμερον ἐργάζου ἐν τῷ ἀμπελῶνι. "What do you think? A man had two sons; and he went to the first and said, 'Son, go and work in the vineyard today.'The Parable of the Two Sons Mt.21.28-32

29ὁ δὲ ἀποκριθεὶς εἶπεν, Οὐ θέλω, ὑστερον δὲ μεταμεληθεὶς ἀπῆλθεν. And he answered, 'I will not'; but afterward he repented and went. 
30προσελθὼν δὲ τῷ ἑτέρῳ εἶπεν ὡσαύτως. ὁ δὲ ἀποκριθεὶς εἶπεν, Ἐγώ, κύριε· καὶ οὐκ ἀπῆλθεν. And he went to the second and said the same; and he answered, 'I go, sir,' but did not go. 
31τίς ἐκ τῶν δύο ἐποίησεν τὸ θέλημα τοῦ πατρός; λέγουσιν, Ὁ πρῶτος. λέγει αὐτοῖς ὁ Ἰησοῦς, Ἀμὴν λέγω ὑμῖν ὅτι οἱ τελῶναι καὶ αἱ πόρναι προάγουσιν ὑμᾶς εἰς τὴν βασιλείαν τοῦ θεοῦ. Which of the two did the will of his father?" They said, "The first." Jesus said to them, "Truly, I say to you, the tax collectors and the harlots go into the kingdom of God before you. 
32ἦλθεν γὰρ Ἰωάννης πρὸς ὑμᾶς ἐν ὁδῷ δικαιοσύνης, καὶ οὐκ ἐπιστεύσατε αὐτῷ· οἱ δὲ τελῶναι καὶ αἱ πόρναι ἐπίστευσαν αὐτῷ· ὑμεῖς δὲ ἰδόντες οὐδὲ μετεμελήθητε ὑστερον τοῦ πιστεῦσαι αὐτῷ. For John came to you in the way of righteousness, and you did not believe him, but the tax collectors and the harlots believed him; and even when you saw it, you did not afterward repent and believe him. 
33Ἀλλην παραβολὴν ἀκούσατε. Ἄνθρωπος ἦν οἰκοδεσπότης ὁστις ἐφύτευσεν ἀμπελῶνα καὶ φραγμὸν αὐτῷ περιέθηκεν καὶ ὤρυξεν ἐν αὐτῷ ληνὸν καὶ ᾠκοδόμησεν πύργον, καὶ ἐξέδετο αὐτὸν γεωργοῖς, καὶ ἀπεδήμησεν. "Listen to another parable. There was a householder who planted a vineyard, and set a hedge around it, and dug a wine press in it, and built a tower, and let it out to tenants, and went into another country.The Parable of the Vineyard and the Tenants Mt.21.33-46 | Mk.12.1-12 | Lk.20.9-19 | [ Mt.21.33-46 → ]

34ὅτε δὲ ἠγγισεν ὁ καιρὸς τῶν καρπῶν, ἀπέστειλεν τοὺς δούλους αὐτοῦ πρὸς τοὺς γεωργοὺς λαβεῖν τοὺς καρποὺς αὐτοῦ. When the season of fruit drew near, he sent his servants to the tenants, to get his fruit; 
35καὶ λαβόντες οἱ γεωργοὶ τοὺς δούλους αὐτοῦ ὃν μὲν ἐδειραν, ὃν δὲ ἀπέκτειναν, ὃν δὲ ἐλιθοβόλησαν. and the tenants took his servants and beat one, killed another, and stoned another. 
36πάλιν ἀπέστειλεν ἀλλους δούλους πλείονας τῶν πρώτων, καὶ ἐποίησαν αὐτοῖς ὡσαύτως. Again he sent other servants, more than the first; and they did the same to them. 
37ὑστερον δὲ ἀπέστειλεν πρὸς αὐτοὺς τὸν υἱὸν αὐτοῦ λέγων, Ἐντραπήσονται τὸν υἱόν μου. Afterward he sent his son to them, saying, 'They will respect my son.' 
38οἱ δὲ γεωργοὶ ἰδόντες τὸν υἱὸν εἶπον ἐν ἑαυτοῖς, Οὗτός ἐστιν ὁ κληρονόμος· δεῦτε ἀποκτείνωμεν αὐτὸν καὶ σχῶμεν τὴν κληρονομίαν αὐτοῦ. But when the tenants saw the son, they said to themselves, 'This is the heir; come, let us kill him and have his inheritance.' 
39καὶ λαβόντες αὐτὸν ἐξέβαλον ἐξω τοῦ ἀμπελῶνος καὶ ἀπέκτειναν. And they took him and cast him out of the vineyard, and killed him. 
40ὁταν οὖν ἐλθῃ ὁ κύριος τοῦ ἀμπελῶνος, τί ποιήσει τοῖς γεωργοῖς ἐκείνοις; When therefore the owner of the vineyard comes, what will he do to those tenants?" 
41λέγουσιν αὐτῷ, κακοὺς κακῶς ἀπολέσει αὐτούς, καὶ τὸν ἀμπελῶνα ἐκδώσεται ἀλλοις γεωργοῖς, οἱτινες ἀποδώσουσιν αὐτῷ τοὺς καρποὺς ἐν τοῖς καιροῖς αὐτῶν. They said to him, "He will put those wretches to a miserable death, and let out the vineyard to other tenants who will give him the fruits in their seasons." 
42λέγει αὐτοῖς ὁ Ἰησοῦς,
Οὐδέποτε ἀνέγνωτε ἐν ταῖς γραφαῖς,
    Λίθον ὃν ἀπεδοκίμασαν οἱ οἰκοδομοῦντες
    οὗτος ἐγενήθη εἰς κεφαλὴν γωνίας:
    παρὰ κυρίου ἐγένετο αὕτη,
    καὶ ἔστιν θαυμαστὴ ἐν ὀφθαλμοῖς ἡμῶν;
Jesus said to them, "Have you never read in the scriptures:
'The very stone which the builders rejected has become the head of the corner; this was the Lord's doing, and it is marvelous in our eyes'?
 
43διὰ τοῦτο λέγω ὑμῖν ὅτι ἀρθήσεται ἀφ' ὑμῶν ἡ βασιλεία τοῦ θεοῦ καὶ δοθήσεται ἐθνει ποιοῦντι τοὺς καρποὺς αὐτῆς. Therefore I tell you, the kingdom of God will be taken away from you and given to a nation producing the fruits of it."- the kingdom of God ... given to a nation producing the fruits Mt.21.43 | Ps.118.22-23

45Καὶ ἀκούσαντες οἱ ἀρχιερεῖς καὶ οἱ Φαρισαῖοι τὰς παραβολὰς αὐτοῦ ἐγνωσαν ὅτι περὶ αὐτῶν λέγει· When the chief priests and the Pharisees heard his parables, they perceived that he was speaking about them. 
46καὶ ζητοῦντες αὐτὸν κρατῆσαι ἐφοβήθησαν τοὺς ὀχλους, ἐπεὶ εἰς προφήτην αὐτὸν εἶχον. But when they tried to arrest him, they feared the multitudes, because they held him to be a prophet.
