Revised Literal Translation
1AndG2532 it came to pass, thatG1096, asG1722 heG846 wasG1510 prayingG4336 inG1722 aG5117 certainG5100 placeG5117, whenG5613 he ceasedG3973, oneG5100 ofG3588G3101 hisG846 disciplesG3588G3101 saidG3004 untoG4314 himG846, LordG2962, teachG1321 usG1473 to prayG4336, asG2531 JohnG2491 alsoG2532 taughtG1321 hisG846 disciplesG3588G3101. 2AndG1161 he saidG3004 unto themG846, WhenG3752 ye prayG4336, sayG3004, OurG1473 FatherG3962 which artG3588 inG1722 heavenG3588G3772, Hallowed beG37 thyG4771 nameG3588G3686. ThyG4771 kingdomG3588G932 comeG2064. ThyG4771 willG3588G2307 be doneG1096, asG5613 inG1722 heavenG3772, soG2532 inG1909 earthG3588G1093. 3GiveG1325 usG1473 dayG2250 byG2596 dayG2250 ourG1473 dailyG1967 breadG3588G740. 4AndG2532 forgiveG863 usG1473 ourG1473 sinsG3588G266; forG1063 weG863 alsoG2532 forgiveG863 everyG3956 one thatG846 is indebtedG3784 to usG1473. AndG2532 leadG1533 usG1473 notG3361 intoG1519 temptationG3986; butG235 deliverG4506 usG1473 fromG575 evilG4190. 5AndG2532 he saidG3004 untoG4314 themG846, WhichG5101 ofG1537 youG4771 shall haveG2192 a friendG5384, andG2532 shall goG4198 untoG4314 himG846 at midnightG3317, andG2532 sayG3004 unto himG846, FriendG5384, lendG5531 meG1473 threeG5140 loavesG740; 6ForG1894 a friendG5384 of mineG1473 in hisG1537 journeyG3598 is comeG3854 toG4314 meG1473, andG2532 I haveG2192 nothingG3756 to set beforeG3908 himG846? 7And heG2548 from withinG2081 shall answerG611 and sayG3004, TroubleG2873 meG1473 notG3361: the doorG3588G2374 isG3930 nowG2235 shutG2808, andG2532 myG1473 childrenG3588G3813 areG1510 withG3326 meG1473 inG1519 bedG3588G2845; I cannotG3756G1410 riseG450 and giveG1325 theeG4771. 8I sayG3004 unto youG4771, ThoughG1487 he willG1325 notG3756 rise andG450 giveG1325 himG846, becauseG1223 he isG1510 hisG846 friendG5384, yetG1065 becauseG1223 ofG3588G335 hisG846 importunityG3588G335 he will riseG1453 and giveG1325 himG846 as many asG3745 he needethG5535. 9And IG2504 sayG3004 unto youG4771, AskG154, andG2532 it shall be givenG1325 youG4771; seekG2212, andG2532 ye shall findG2147; knockG2925, andG2532 it shall be openedG455 unto youG4771. 10ForG1063 everyG3956 one that askethG154 receivethG2983; andG2532 he that seekethG2212 findethG2147; andG2532 to him that knockethG2925 it shall be openedG455. 11IfG1161 a sonG3588G5207 shall askG154 breadG740 of anyG5101 of youG4771 that is a fatherG3588G3962, will he giveG1929 himG846 a stoneG3037? orG2532 ifG1487 he ask a fishG2486, will heG1929 forG473 a fishG2486 giveG1929 himG846 a serpentG3789? 12OrG2228 ifG1437 he shall askG154 an eggG5609, will he offerG1929 himG846 a scorpionG4651? 13IfG1487 yeG4771 thenG3767, beingG5225 evilG4190, know howG1492 to giveG1325 goodG18 giftsG1390 untoG3588G5043 yourG4771 childrenG3588G5043: how muchG4214 moreG3123 shall your heavenlyG3772 FatherG3588G3962 giveG1325 theG4151 HolyG40 SpiritG4151 to them that askG154 himG846? 14
AndG2532 he wasG1510 casting outG1544 a devilG1140, andG2532 itG846 wasG1510 dumbG2974. AndG1161 it came to passG1096, whenG1831 the devilG3588G1140 was gone outG1831, the dumbG2974 spakeG2980; andG2532 the peopleG3588G3793 wonderedG2296. 15ButG1161 someG5100 ofG1537 themG846 saidG3004, He casteth outG1544 devilsG3588G1140 throughG1722 BeelzebubG954 the chiefG758 of the devilsG3588G1140. 16AndG1161 othersG2087, temptingG3985 him, soughtG2212 ofG3844 himG846 a signG4592 fromG1537 heavenG3772. 17ButG1161 heG846, knowingG1492 theirG846 thoughtsG3588G1270, saidG3004 unto themG846, EveryG3956 kingdomG932 dividedG1266 againstG1909 itselfG1438 is brought to desolationG2049; andG2532 a houseG3624 divided againstG1909 a houseG3624 fallethG4098. 18IfG1487 SatanG3588G4567 alsoG2532 be dividedG1266 againstG1909 himselfG1438, howG4459 shallG2476 hisG846 kingdomG3588G932 standG2476? becauseG3754 ye say thatG3004 IG1473 cast outG1544 devilsG3588G1140 throughG1722 BeelzebubG954. 19AndG1161 ifG1487 IG1473 byG1722 BeelzebubG954 cast outG1544 devilsG3588G1140, byG1722 whomG5101 doG1544 yourG4771 sonsG3588G5207 castG1544 them outG1544? thereforeG1223 shallG1510 theyG846 beG1510 yourG4771 judgesG2923. 20ButG1161 ifG1487 IG1544 withG1722 the fingerG1147 of GodG2316 cast outG1544 devilsG3588G1140, no doubtG686 the kingdomG3588G932 of GodG3588G2316 is comeG5348 uponG1909 youG4771. 21WhenG3752 a strong manG2478 armedG2528 keepethG5442 hisG1438 palaceG833, hisG846 goodsG5225 areG1510 inG1722 peaceG1515: 22ButG1161 whenG1875 a strongerG2478 than heG846 shall come uponG1904 himG846, and overcomeG3528 himG846, he takethG142 from himG1909 allG3588G3833 hisG846 armourG3588G3833 whereinG3739 he trustedG3982, andG2532 dividethG1239 hisG846 spoilsG3588G4661. 23He that isG1510 notG3361 withG3326 meG1473 isG1510 againstG2596 meG1473: andG2532 he that gatherethG4863 notG3361 withG3326 meG1473 scatterethG4650. 24WhenG3752 theG4151 uncleanG169 spiritG4151 is gone outG1831 ofG575 a manG3588G444, he walkethG1330 throughG1223 dryG504 placesG5117, seekingG2212 restG372; andG2532 findingG2147 noneG3361, he saithG3004, I will returnG5290 untoG1519 myG1473 houseG3588G3624 whenceG3606 I came outG1831. 25AndG2532 when he comethG2064, he findethG2147 it sweptG4563 andG2532 garnishedG2885. 26ThenG5119 goeth heG4198, andG2532 takethG3880 to him sevenG2033 otherG2087 spiritsG4151 more wickedG4190 than himselfG1438; andG2532 they enter inG1525, and dwellG2730 thereG1563: andG2532 the lastG2078 state ofG3588G444 thatG1565 manG3588G444 isG1096 worseG5501 than the firstG4413. 27
AndG1161 it came to passG1096, asG1722 heG846 spakeG3004 these thingsG3778, a certainG5100 womanG1135 ofG1537 the companyG3588G3793 lifted upG1869 her voiceG5456, and saidG3004 unto himG846, BlessedG3107 is the wombG3588G2836 that bareG941 theeG4771, andG2532 the papsG3149 whichG3739 thou hast suckedG2337. 28ButG1161 heG846 saidG3004, Yea ratherG3304, blessedG3107 are they that hearG191 the wordG3588G3056 of GodG3588G2316, andG2532 keepG5442 itG846. 29
AndG1161 whenG1865 the peopleG3793 were gathered thick togetherG1865, he beganG756 to sayG3004, ThisG3778 isG1510 anG3588G1074 evilG4190 generationG3588G1074: they seekG1934 a signG4592; andG2532 there shallG1325 noG3756 signG4592 be givenG1325 itG846, butG3361 the signG3588G4592 of JonahG2495 the prophetG3588G4396. 30ForG1063 asG2531 JonahG2495 wasG1096 a signG4592 unto the NinevitesG3588G3536, soG3779 shallG1510 alsoG2532 the SonG3588G5207 of manG3588G444 beG1510 toG3588G1074 thisG3778 generationG3588G1074. 31The queenG938 of the southG3558 shall rise upG1453 inG1722 the judgmentG3588G2920 withG3326 the menG3588G435 ofG3588G1074 thisG3778 generationG3588G1074, andG2532 condemnG2632 themG846: forG3754 she cameG2064 fromG1537 the utmost partsG3588G4009 of the earthG3588G1093 to hearG191 the wisdomG3588G4678 of SolomonG4672; andG2532, beholdG3708, a greaterG4119 than SolomonG4672 is hereG5602. 32The menG435 of NinevehG3535 shall rise upG450 inG1722 the judgmentG3588G2920 withG3326 thisG3778 generationG3588G1074, andG2532 shall condemnG2632 itG846: forG3754 they repentedG3340 atG1519 the preachingG3588G2782 of JonahG2495; andG2532, beholdG3708, a greaterG4119 than JonahG2495 is hereG5602. 33No manG3762, whenG1161 he hath lightedG681 a candleG3088, puttethG5087 it inG1519 a secret placeG2927, neitherG3761 underG5259 a bushelG3588G3426, butG235 onG1909 a candlestickG3588G3087, thatG2443 they which come inG1531 may seeG991 the lightG3588G5338. 34The lightG3588G3088 of the bodyG3588G4983 isG1510 the eyeG3588G3788: thereforeG3767 whenG3752 thineG4771 eyeG3588G3788 isG1510 singleG573, thyG4771 wholeG3650 bodyG3588G4983 alsoG2532 isG1510 full of lightG5460; butG1161 whenG1875 thine eye isG1510 evilG4190, thyG4771 bodyG3588G4983 alsoG2532 is full of darknessG4652. 35Take heedG4648 thereforeG3767 thatG4648 the lightG3588G5457 which isG3588 inG1722 theeG4771 beG1510 notG3361 darknessG4655. 36IfG1487 thyG4771 wholeG3650 bodyG3588G4983 thereforeG3767 be full of lightG5460, havingG2192 noG3361 partG3313 darkG4652, the wholeG3650 shall beG1510 full of lightG5460, asG5613 whenG3752 the bright shiningG3588G796 of a candleG3588G3088 doth giveG5461 theeG4771 lightG5461. 37
AndG1161 asG1722 he spakeG2980, a certainG5100 PhariseeG5330 besoughtG2065 himG846 toG3704 dineG709 withG3844 himG846: andG1161 he went inG1525, and sat down to meatG377. 38AndG1161 whenG3708 the PhariseeG5330 sawG3708 it, he marvelledG2296 thatG3754 he hadG907 notG3756 firstG4412 washedG907 beforeG4253 dinnerG3588G712. 39AndG1161 the LordG3588G2962 saidG3004 untoG4314 himG846, NowG3568 doG2511 yeG4771 PhariseesG3588G5330 make cleanG2511 the outsideG1855 of the cupG3588G4221 andG2532 the platterG3588G4094; butG1161 yourG4771 inward partG2081 is fullG1073 of raveningG724 andG2532 wickednessG4189. 40Ye foolsG878, didG4160 notG3756 he that madeG4160 that which is withoutG1855 makeG4160 that which is withinG2081 alsoG2532? 41But ratherG4133 giveG1325 almsG1654 of such things as ye haveG1751; andG2532, beholdG3708, all thingsG3956 areG1510 cleanG2513 unto youG4771. 42ButG235 woeG3759 unto youG4771, PhariseesG3588G5330! forG3754 ye titheG586 mintG3588G2238 andG2532 rueG3588G4076 andG2532 all manner ofG3956 herbsG3001, andG2532 pass overG3928 judgmentG3588G2920 andG2532 the loveG3588G26 of GodG3588G2316: theseG3778 ought yeG1163 to have doneG4160, andG2548 notG3361 to leaveG863 the otherG2548 undoneG863. 43WoeG3759 unto youG4771, PhariseesG3588G5330! forG3754 ye loveG25 the uppermost seatsG3588G4410 inG1722 the synagoguesG3588G4864, andG2532 greetingsG3588G783 inG1722 the marketsG3588G58. 44WoeG3759 unto youG4771, scribesG1122 andG2532 PhariseesG5330, hypocritesG5273! forG3754 ye areG1510 asG5613 gravesG3588G3419 which appear notG82, andG2532 the menG3588G444 that walkG4043 overG1883 them areG1492 notG3756 awareG1492 of them. 45
ThenG1161 answeredG611 oneG5100 of the lawyersG3544, and saidG3004 unto himG846, MasterG1320, thusG3778 sayingG3004 thou reproachestG5195 usG1473 alsoG2532. 46AndG1161 he saidG3004, WoeG3759 unto youG4771 alsoG2532, ye lawyersG3544! forG3754 ye ladeG5412 menG3588G444 with burdensG5413 grievous to be borneG1419, andG2532 yeG4379 yourselvesG846 touchG4379 notG3756 the burdensG3588G5413 withG3588G1147 one ofG1520 yourG4771 fingersG3588G1147. 47WoeG3759 unto youG4771! forG3754 ye buildG3618 the sepulchresG3588G3419 of the prophetsG3588G4396, andG1161 yourG4771 fathersG3962 killedG615 themG846. 48TrulyG686 ye bear witnessG3140 thatG2532 ye allowG4909 the deedsG3588G2041 ofG3588G3962 yourG4771 fathersG3588G3962: forG3754 theyG846 indeedG3303 killedG615 themG846, andG1161 yeG4771 buildG3618 theirG846 sepulchresG3588G3419. 49ThereforeG1223 alsoG2532 saidG3004 the wisdomG3588G4678 of GodG3588G2316, I will sendG649 themG846 prophetsG4396 andG2532 apostlesG652, andG2532 some ofG1537 themG846 they shall slayG615 andG2532 persecuteG1559: 50ThatG2443 the bloodG3588G129 ofG3588G4396 allG3956 the prophetsG3588G4396, which was shedG1632 fromG575 the foundationG2602 of the worldG2889, may be requiredG1567 ofG575 thisG3778 generationG3588G1074; 51FromG575 the bloodG3588G129 of AbelG6 untoG2193 the bloodG3588G129 of ZachariahG2197, which perishedG622 betweenG3342 the altarG3588G2379 andG2532 the templeG3588G3624: verilyG3483 I sayG3004 unto youG4771, It shall be requiredG1567 ofG575 thisG3778 generationG3588G1074. 52WoeG3759 unto youG4771, lawyersG3544! forG3754 ye have taken awayG142 the keyG3588G2807 of knowledgeG3588G1108: ye enteredG1525 notG3756 inG1525 yourselvesG846, andG2532 them that were entering inG1525 ye hinderedG2967. 53AndG1161 asG3004 heG846 saidG3004 these thingsG3778 untoG4314 themG846, the scribesG3588G1122 andG2532 the PhariseesG3588G5330 beganG756 to urgeG1758 him vehementlyG1171, andG2532 to provokeG653 himG846 to speakG653 ofG4012 many thingsG4119: 54Laying waitG1748 for himG846, andG2532 seekingG2212 to catchG2340 somethingG5100 outG1537 ofG3588G4750 hisG846 mouthG3588G4750, thatG2443 they might accuseG2723 himG846.
