17 New English Bible (New Testament) Passage New Testament in Greek (UBS.Ed.26)

7Suppose one of you has a servant ploughing or minding sheep. When he comes back from the fields, will the master say, "Come along at once and sit down"? Τίς δὲ ἐξ ὑμῶν δοῦλον ἐχων ἀροτριῶντα ἢ ποιμαίνοντα, ὃς εἰσελθόντι ἐκ τοῦ ἀγροῦ ἐρεῖ αὐτῷ, Εὐθέως παρελθὼν ἀνάπεσε,
8Will he not rather say, "Prepare my supper, fasten your belt, and then wait on me while I have my meal; you can have yours afterwards"? ἀλλ' οὐχὶ ἐρεῖ αὐτῷ, Ἑτοίμασον τί δειπνήσω, καὶ περιζωσάμενος διακόνει μοι ἑως φάγω καὶ πίω, καὶ μετὰ ταῦτα φάγεσαι καὶ πίεσαι σύ;
9Is he grateful to the servant for carrying out his orders? μὴ ἐχει χάριν τῷ δούλῳ ὅτι ἐποίησεν τὰ διαταχθέντὰ;
10So with you: when you have carried out all your orders, you should say, "We are servants and deserve no credit; we have only done our duty." '
 οὑτως καὶ ὑμεῖς, ὁταν ποιήσητε πάντα τὰ διαταχθέντα ὑμῖν, λέγετε ὅτι Δοῦλοι ἀχρεῖοί ἐσμεν, ὃ ὠφείλομεν ποιῆσαι πεποιήκαμεν.
