12 katapi NEW STUDY BIBLE Passage New Testament in Greek (UBS.Ed.26)

13One of the multitude said to him, "Teacher, bid my brother divide the inheritance with me."The Parable of the Rich Fool Lk.12.13-21 (Judaea)Εἶπεν δέ τις ἐκ τοῦ ὀχλου αὐτῷ, Διδάσκαλε, εἰπὲ τῷ ἀδελφῷ μου μερίσασθαι μετ' ἐμοῦ τὴν κληρονομίαν.
14But he said to him, "Man, who made me a judge or divider over you?" ὁ δὲ εἶπεν αὐτῷ, Ἄνθρωπε, τίς με κατέστησεν κριτὴν ἢ μεριστὴν ἐφ' ὑμᾶς;
15And he said to them, "Take heed, and beware of all covetousness; for a man's life does not consist in the abundance of his possessions." εἶπεν δὲ πρὸς αὐτούς, Ὁρᾶτε καὶ φυλάσσεσθε ἀπὸ πάσης πλεονεξίας, ὅτι οὐκ ἐν τῷ περισσεύειν τινὶ ἡ ζωὴ αὐτοῦ ἐστιν ἐκ τῶν ὑπαρχόντων αὐτῷ.
16And he told them a parable, saying, "The land of a rich man brought forth plentifully; Εἶπεν δὲ παραβολὴν πρὸς αὐτοὺς λέγων, Ἀνθρώπου τινὸς πλουσίου εὐφόρησεν ἡ χώρα.
17and he thought to himself, 'What shall I do, for I have nowhere to store my crops? καὶ διελογίζετο ἐν ἑαυτῷ λέγων, Τί ποιήσω, ὅτι οὐκ ἐχω ποῦ συνάξω τοὺς καρπούς μοὺ;
18And he said, 'I will do this: I will pull down my barns, and build larger ones; and there I will store all my grain and my goods. καὶ εἶπεν, Τοῦτο ποιήσω· καθελῶ μου τὰς ἀποθήκας καὶ μείζονας οἰκοδομήσω, καὶ συνάξω ἐκεῖ πάντα τὸν σῖτον καὶ τὰ ἀγαθά μου,
19And I will say to my soul, Soul, you have ample goods laid up for many years; take your ease, eat, drink, be merry.' καὶ ἐρῶ τῇ ψυχῇ μου, Ψυχή, ἐχεις πολλὰ ἀγαθὰ κείμενα εἰς ἐτη πολλά· ἀναπαύου, φάγε, πίε, εὐφραίνου.
20But God said to him, 'Fool! This night your soul is required of you; and the things you have prepared, whose will they be? εἶπεν δὲ αὐτῷ ὁ θεός, Ἄφρων, ταύτῃ τῇ νυκτὶ τὴν ψυχήν σου ἀπαιτοῦσιν ἀπὸ σοῦ· ἂ δὲ ἡτοίμασας, τίνι ἐσταὶ;
21So is he who lays up treasure for himself, and is not rich toward God." οὑτως ὁ θησαυρίζων ἑαυτῷ καὶ μὴ εἰς θεὸν πλουτῶν.

Notes: This page displays passages from the katapi NEW STUDY BIBLE.
The katapi NEW STUDY BIBLE is a very light revision of the RSV. The changes are: (1) In places where 'the LORD', 'O LORD' occurs in the RSV, (it represents the tetragrammaton - YHWH - which is in the hebrew text), I have used the name 'Yahweh'.
(2) I have removed the quotation marks and hyphens that were used in so many names in the RSV as an aid to correct pronunciation. This now brings it in line with all other English versions, and makes any word-search more accurate.
(3) I have changed all (I hope!) of the RSV archaic language sections to modern.

The katapi New Study Bible reference section displays links to parallel passages, and to direct quotations by New Testament authors to Old Testament passages. Quotations of OT passages by NT authors can in most cases be viewed within their context of the OT passage as a whole, with the quoted text displayed, against a subdued background.
