| 2 | λέγων, Ἐπὶ τῆς Μωϋσέως καθέδρας ἐκάθισαν οἱ γραμματεῖς καὶ οἱ Φαρισαῖοι. | "The scribes and the Pharisees sit on Moses' seat; | |
| 3 | πάντα οὖν ὁσα ἐὰν εἰπωσιν ὑμῖν ποιήσατε καὶ τηρεῖτε, κατὰ δὲ τὰ ἐργα αὐτῶν μὴ ποιεῖτε· λέγουσιν γὰρ καὶ οὐ ποιοῦσιν. | so practice and observe whatever they tell you, but not what they do; for they preach, but do not practice. | |
| 4 | δεσμεύουσιν δὲ φορτία βαρέα [καὶ δυσβάστακτα] καὶ ἐπιτιθέασιν ἐπὶ τοὺς ὠμους τῶν ἀνθρώπων, αὐτοὶ δὲ τῷ δακτύλῳ αὐτῶν οὐ θέλουσιν κινῆσαι αὐτά. | They bind heavy burdens, [hard to bear,] and lay them on men's shoulders; but they themselves will not move them with their finger. | [καὶ δυσβάστακτα] {C} omit: L Xcomm f1 892 it.a,b,e,ff2,h syr.c,s,p cop.bo Diatessaron.a Irenaeus.lat Origen.lat |
| 5 | πάντα δὲ τὰ ἐργα αὐτῶν ποιοῦσιν πρὸς τὸ θεαθῆναι τοῖς ἀνθρώποις· πλατύνουσιν γὰρ τὰ φυλακτήρια αὐτῶν καὶ μεγαλύνουσιν τὰ κράσπεδα, | They do all their deeds to be seen by men; for they make their phylacteries broad and their fringes long, | |
| 6 | φιλοῦσιν δὲ τὴν πρωτοκλισίαν ἐν τοῖς δείπνοις καὶ τὰς πρωτοκαθεδρίας ἐν ταῖς συναγωγαῖς | and they love the place of honor at feasts and the best seats in the synagogues, | |
| 7 | καὶ τοὺς ἀσπασμοὺς ἐν ταῖς ἀγοραῖς καὶ καλεῖσθαι ὑπὸ τῶν ἀνθρώπων, Ῥαββί. | and salutations in the market places, and being called rabbi by men. | |
| 8 | ὑμεῖς δὲ μὴ κληθῆτε, Ῥαββί, εἷς γάρ ἐστιν ὑμῶν ὁ διδάσκαλος, πάντες δὲ ὑμεῖς ἀδελφοί ἐστε. | But you are not to be called rabbi, for you have one teacher, and you are all brethren. | |
| 9 | καὶ πατέρα μὴ καλέσητε ὑμῶν ἐπὶ τῆς γῆς, εἷς γάρ ἐστιν ὑμῶν ὁ πατὴρ ὁ οὐράνιος. | And call no man your father on earth, for you have one Father, who is in heaven. | |
| 10 | μηδὲ κληθῆτε καθηγηταί, ὅτι καθηγητὴς ὑμῶν ἐστιν εἷς ὁ Χριστός. | Neither be called masters, for you have one master, the Christ. | |
| 11 | ὁ δὲ μείζων ὑμῶν ἐσται ὑμῶν διάκονος. | He who is greatest among you shall be your servant; | |
| 12 | ὁστις δὲ ὑψώσει ἑαυτὸν ταπεινωθήσεται, καὶ ὁστις ταπεινώσει ἑαυτὸν ὑψωθήσεται. | whoever exalts himself will be humbled, and whoever humbles himself will be exalted. | |
| 13 | Οὐαὶ δὲ ὑμῖν, γραμματεῖς καὶ Φαρισαῖοι ὑποκριταί, ὅτι κλείετε τὴν βασιλείαν τῶν οὐρανῶν ἐμπροσθεν τῶν ἀνθρώπων· ὑμεῖς γὰρ οὐκ εἰσέρχεσθε, οὐδὲ τοὺς εἰσερχομένους ἀφίετ ε εἰσελθεῖν. | "But woe to you, scribes and Pharisees, hypocrites! because you shut the kingdom of heaven against men; for you neither enter yourselves, nor allow those who would enter to go in. | [UBS footnote] K W Δgr Π 0107 0138 28 565 700 892mg 1010 1071 1079 1195 1216 1230 1241 1242 1365 1546 1646 2148 2174 Byz lect it.f syr.p.h cop.bo.mss eth Chrys Ps-Chys John-Dam. |
| 14 | Οὐαὶ δὲ ὑμῖν, γραμματεῖς καὶ Φαρισαῖοι ὑποκριταί, ὅτι κατεσθίετε τὰς οἰκίας τῶν χηρῶν καὶ προφάσει μακρὰ προσευχόμενοι· διὰ τοῦτο λήμψεσθε περισσότερον κρίμα. | |
|
| 15 | Οὐαὶ ὑμῖν, γραμματεῖς καὶ Φαρισαῖοι ὑποκριταί, ὅτι περιάγετε τὴν θάλασσαν καὶ τὴν ξηρὰν ποιῆσαι ἑνα προσήλυτον, καὶ ὁταν γένηται ποιεῖτε αὐτὸν υἱὸν γεέννης διπλότερον ὑμῶν. | Woe to you, scribes and Pharisees, hypocrites! for you traverse sea and land to make a single proselyte, and when he becomes a proselyte, you make him twice as much a child of hell as yourselves. | |
| 16 | Οὐαὶ ὑμῖν, ὁδηγοὶ τυφλοὶ οἱ λέγοντες, Ὃς ἂν ὀμόσῃ ἐν τῷ ναῷ, οὐδέν ἐστιν· ὃς δ' ἂν ὀμόσῃ ἐν τῷ χρυσῷ τοῦ ναοῦ ὀφείλει. | "Woe to you, blind guides, who say, 'If any one swears by the temple, it is nothing; but if any one swears by the gold of the temple, he is bound by his oath.' | |
| 17 | μωροὶ καὶ τυφλοί, τίς γὰρ μείζων ἐστίν, ὁ χρυσὸς ἢ ὁ ναὸς ὁ ἀγιάσας τὸν χρυσόν; | You blind fools! For which is greater, the gold or the temple that has made the gold sacred? | |
| 18 | καί, Ὃς ἂν ὀμόσῃ ἐν τῷ θυσιαστηρίῳ, οὐδέν ἐστιν· ὃς δ' ἂν ὀμόσῃ ἐν τῷ δώρῳ τῷ ἐπάνω αὐτοῦ ὀφείλει. | And you say, 'If any one swears by the altar, it is nothing; but if any one swears by the gift that is on the altar, he is bound by his oath.' | |
| 19 | τυφλοί, τί γὰρ μεῖζον, τὸ δῶρον ἢ τὸ θυσιαστήριον τὸ ἀγιάζον τὸ δῶρον; | You blind men! For which is greater, the gift or the altar that makes the gift sacred? | |
| 20 | ὁ οὖν ὀμόσας ἐν τῷ θυσιαστηρίῳ ὀμνύει ἐν αὐτῷ καὶ ἐν πᾶσι τοῖς ἐπάνω αὐτοῦ· | So he who swears by the altar, swears by it and by everything on it; | |
| 21 | καὶ ὁ ὀμόσας ἐν τῷ ναῷ ὀμνύει ἐν αὐτῷ καὶ ἐν τῷ κατοικοῦντι αὐτόν· | and he who swears by the temple, swears by it and by him who dwells in it; | |
| 22 | καὶ ὁ ὀμόσας ἐν τῷ οὐρανῷ ὀμνύει ἐν τῷ θρόνῳ τοῦ θεοῦ καὶ ἐν τῷ καθημένῳ ἐπάνω αὐτοῦ. | and he who swears by heaven, swears by the throne of God and by him who sits upon it. | |
| 23 | Οὐαὶ ὑμῖν, γραμματεῖς καὶ Φαρισαῖοι ὑποκριταί, ὅτι ἀποδεκατοῦτε τὸ ἡδύοσμον καὶ τὸ ἀνηθον καὶ τὸ κύμινον, καὶ ἀφήκατε τὰ βαρύτερα τοῦ νόμου, τὴν κρίσιν καὶ τὸ ἐλεος καὶ τὴν πίστιν· ταῦτα [δὲ] ἔδει ποιῆσαι κἀκεῖνα μὴ ἀφιέναι. | "Woe to you, scribes and Pharisees, hypocrites! for you tithe mint and dill and cummin, and have neglected the weightier matters of the law, justice and mercy and faith; these you ought to have done, without neglecting the others. | |
| 24 | ὁδηγοὶ τυφλοί, οἱ διϋλίζοντες τὸν κώνωπα τὴν δὲ κάμηλον καταπίνοντες. | You blind guides, straining out a gnat and swallowing a camel! | |
| 25 | Οὐαὶ ὑμῖν, γραμματεῖς καὶ Φαρισαῖοι ὑποκριταί, ὅτι καθαρίζετε τὸ ἐξωθεν τοῦ ποτηρίου καὶ τῆς παροψίδος, ἐσωθεν δὲ γέμουσιν ἐξ ἀρπαγῆς καὶ ἀκρασίας. | "Woe to you, scribes and Pharisees, hypocrites! for you cleanse the outside of the cup and of the plate, but inside they are full of extortion and rapacity. | |
| 26 | Φαρισαῖε τυφλέ, καθάρισον πρῶτον τὸ ἐντὸς τοῦ ποτηρίου, ἵνα γένηται καὶ τὸ ἐκτὸς αὐτοῦ καθαρόν. | You blind Pharisee! first cleanse the inside of the cup and of the plate, that the outside also may be clean. | |
| 27 | Οὐαὶ ὑμῖν, γραμματεῖς καὶ Φαρισαῖοι ὑποκριταί, ὅτι παρομοιάζετε τάφοις κεκονιαμένοις, οἱτινες ἐξωθεν μὲν φαίνονται ὡραῖοι ἐσωθεν δὲ γέμουσιν ὀστέων νεκρῶν καὶ πάσης ἀκαθαρ σίας. | "Woe to you, scribes and Pharisees, hypocrites! for you are like whitewashed tombs, which outwardly appear beautiful, but within they are full of dead men's bones and all uncleanness. | |
| 28 | οὑτως καὶ ὑμεῖς ἐξωθεν μὲν φαίνεσθε τοῖς ἀνθρώποις δίκαιοι, ἐσωθεν δέ ἐστε μεστοὶ ὑποκρίσεως καὶ ἀνομίας. | So you also outwardly appear righteous to men, but within you are full of hypocrisy and iniquity. | |
| 29 | Οὐαὶ ὑμῖν, γραμματεῖς καὶ Φαρισαῖοι ὑποκριταί, ὅτι οἰκοδομεῖτε τοὺς τάφους τῶν προφητῶν καὶ κοσμεῖτε τὰ μνημεῖα τῶν δικαίων, | "Woe to you, scribes and Pharisees, hypocrites! for you build the tombs of the prophets and adorn the monuments of the righteous, | |
| 30 | καὶ λέγετε, Εἰ ἠμεθα ἐν ταῖς ἡμέραις τῶν πατέρων ἡμῶν, οὐκ ἂν ἠμεθα αὐτῶν κοινωνοὶ ἐν τῷ αἱματι τῶν προφητῶν. | saying, 'If we had lived in the days of our fathers, we would not have taken part with them in shedding the blood of the prophets.' | |
| 31 | ὡστε μαρτυρεῖτε ἑαυτοῖς ὅτι υἱοί ἐστε τῶν φονευσάντων τοὺς προφήτας. | Thus you witness against yourselves, that you are sons of those who murdered the prophets. | |
| 32 | καὶ ὑμεῖς πληρώσατε τὸ μέτρον τῶν πατέρων ὑμῶν. | Fill up, then, the measure of your fathers. | |
| 33 | ὀφεις γεννήματα ἐχιδνῶν, πῶς φύγητε ἀπὸ τῆς κρίσεως τῆς γεέννης; | You serpents, you brood of vipers, how are you to escape being sentenced to hell? | |
| 34 | διὰ τοῦτο ἰδοὺ ἐγὼ ἀποστέλλω πρὸς ὑμᾶς προφήτας καὶ σοφοὺς καὶ γραμματεῖς· ἐξ αὐτῶν ἀποκτενεῖτε καὶ σταυρώσετε, καὶ ἐξ αὐτῶν μαστιγώσετε ἐν ταῖς συναγωγαῖς ὑμῶν καὶ διώ ξετε ἀπὸ πόλεως εἰς πόλιν· | Therefore I send you prophets and wise men and scribes, some of whom you will kill and crucify, and some you will scourge in your synagogues and persecute from town to town, | |
| 35 | ὁπως ἐλθῃ ἐφ' ὑμᾶς πᾶν αἷμα δίκαιον ἐκχυννόμενον ἐπὶ τῆς γῆς ἀπὸ τοῦ αἱματος Ἅβελ τοῦ δικαίου ἑως τοῦ αἱματος Ζαχαρίου υἱοῦ Βαραχίου, ὃν ἐφονεύσατε μεταξὺ τοῦ να οῦ καὶ τοῦ θυσιαστηρίου. | that upon you may come all the righteous blood shed on earth, from the blood of innocent Abel to the blood of Zechari'ah the son of Barachi'ah, whom you murdered between the sanctuary and the altar. | |
| 36 | ἀμὴν λέγω ὑμῖν, ἡξει ταῦτα πάντα ἐπὶ τὴν γενεὰν ταύτην. | Truly, I say to you, all this will come upon this generation. | |
| 37 | Ἰερουσαλὴμ Ἰερουσαλήμ, ἡ ἀποκτείνουσα τοὺς προφήτας καὶ λιθοβολοῦσα τοὺς ἀπεσταλμένους πρὸς αὐτήν, ποσάκις ἠθέλησα ἐπισυναγαγεῖν τὰ τέκνα σου, ὃν τρόπον ὀρνις ἐπισυνάγει τὰ νοσσία αὐτῆς ὑπὸ τὰς πτέρυγας, καὶ οὐκ ἠθελήσατε. | "O Jerusalem, Jerusalem, killing the prophets and stoning those who are sent to you!
