Κατα ΙΩΑΝΝΗΝ 3

Cap. 3

The Gospel According to Saint John 3

ἦν δὲ ἄνθρωπος ἐκ τῶν φαρισαίων, νικόδημος ὄνομα αὐτῶ, ἄρχων τῶν ἰουδαίων· 1

Erat autem homo ex pharisæis, Nicodemus nomine, princeps Judæorum. 1

There was a man of the Pharisees, named Nicodemus, a ruler of the Jews: 1

οὖτος ἦλθεν πρὸς αὐτὸν νυκτὸς καὶ εἶπεν αὐτῶ, ῥαββί, οἴδαμεν ὅτι ἀπὸ θεοῦ ἐλήλυθας διδάσκαλος· οὐδεὶς γὰρ δύναται ταῦτα τὰ σημεῖα ποιεῖν ἃ σὺ ποιεῖς, ἐὰν μὴ ᾖ ὁ θεὸς μετ᾽ αὐτοῦ. 2

Hic venit ad Jesum nocte, et dixit ei: Rabbi, scimus quia a Deo venisti magister, nemo enim potest hæc signa facere, quæ tu facis, nisi fuerit Deus cum eo. 2

The same came to Jesus by night, and said unto him, Rabbi, we know that thou art a teacher come from God: for no man can do these miracles that thou doest, except God be with him. 2

ἀπεκρίθη ἰησοῦς καὶ εἶπεν αὐτῶ, ἀμὴν ἀμὴν λέγω σοι, ἐὰν μή τις γεννηθῇ ἄνωθεν, οὐ δύναται ἰδεῖν τὴν βασιλείαν τοῦ θεοῦ. 3

Respondit Jesus, et dixit ei: Amen, amen dico tibi, nisi quis renatus fuerit denuo, non potest videre regnum Dei. 3

Jesus answered and said unto him, Verily, verily, I say unto thee, Except a man be born again, he cannot see the kingdom of God. 3

λέγει πρὸς αὐτὸν <ὁ> νικόδημος, πῶς δύναται ἄνθρωπος γεννηθῆναι γέρων ὤν; μὴ δύναται εἰς τὴν κοιλίαν τῆς μητρὸς αὐτοῦ δεύτερον εἰσελθεῖν καὶ γεννηθῆναι; 4

Dicit ad eum Nicodemus: Quomodo potest homo nasci, cum sit senex? numquid potest in ventrem matris suæ iterato introire et renasci? 4

Nicodemus saith unto him, How can a man be born when he is old? can he enter the second time into his mother’s womb, and be born? 4

ἀπεκρίθη ἰησοῦς, ἀμὴν ἀμὴν λέγω σοι, ἐὰν μή τις γεννηθῇ ἐξ ὕδατος καὶ πνεύματος, οὐ δύναται εἰσελθεῖν εἰς τὴν βασιλείαν τοῦ θεοῦ. 5

Respondit Jesus: Amen, amen dico tibi, nisi quis renatus fuerit ex aqua, et Spiritu Sancto, non potest introire in regnum Dei. 5

Jesus answered, Verily, verily, I say unto thee, Except a man be born of water and of the Spirit, he cannot enter into the kingdom of God. 5

τὸ γεγεννημένον ἐκ τῆς σαρκὸς σάρξ ἐστιν, καὶ τὸ γεγεννημένον ἐκ τοῦ πνεύματος πνεῦμά ἐστιν. 6

Quod natum est ex carne, caro est: et quod natum est ex spiritu, spiritus est. 6

That which is born of the flesh is flesh; and that which is born of the Spirit is spirit. 6

μὴ θαυμάσῃς ὅτι εἶπόν σοι, δεῖ ὑμᾶς γεννηθῆναι ἄνωθεν. 7

Non mireris quia dixi tibi: oportet vos nasci denuo. 7

Marvel not that I said unto thee, Ye must be born again. 7

τὸ πνεῦμα ὅπου θέλει πνεῖ, καὶ τὴν φωνὴν αὐτοῦ ἀκούεις, ἀλλ᾽ οὐκ οἶδας πόθεν ἔρχεται καὶ ποῦ ὑπάγει· οὕτως ἐστὶν πᾶς ὁ γεγεννημένος ἐκ τοῦ πνεύματος. 8

Spiritus ubi vult spirat, et vocem ejus audis, sed nescis unde veniat, aut quo vadat: sic est omnis qui natus est ex spiritu. 8

The wind bloweth where it listeth, and thou hearest the sound thereof, but canst not tell whence it cometh, and whither it goeth: so is every one that is born of the Spirit. 8

ἀπεκρίθη νικόδημος καὶ εἶπεν αὐτῶ, πῶς δύναται ταῦτα γενέσθαι; 9

Respondit Nicodemus, et dixit ei: Quomodo possunt hæc fieri? 9

Nicodemus answered and said unto him, How can these things be? 9

ἀπεκρίθη ἰησοῦς καὶ εἶπεν αὐτῶ, σὺ εἶ ὁ διδάσκαλος τοῦ ἰσραὴλ καὶ ταῦτα οὐ γινώσκεις; 10

Respondit Jesus, et dixit ei: Tu es magister in Israël, et hæc ignoras? 10

Jesus answered and said unto him, Art thou a master of Israel, and knowest not these things? 10

ἀμὴν ἀμὴν λέγω σοι ὅτι ὃ οἴδαμεν λαλοῦμεν καὶ ὃ ἑωράκαμεν μαρτυροῦμεν, καὶ τὴν μαρτυρίαν ἡμῶν οὐ λαμβάνετε. 11

amen, amen dico tibi, quia quod scimus loquimur, et quod vidimus testamur, et testimonium nostrum non accipitis. 11

Verily, verily, I say unto thee, We speak that we do know, and testify that we have seen; and ye receive not our witness. 11

εἰ τὰ ἐπίγεια εἶπον ὑμῖν καὶ οὐ πιστεύετε, πῶς ἐὰν εἴπω ὑμῖν τὰ ἐπουράνια πιστεύσετε; 12

Si terrena dixi vobis, et non creditis: quomodo, si dixero vobis cælestia, credetis? 12

If I have told you earthly things, and ye believe not, how shall ye believe, if I tell you of heavenly things? 12

καὶ οὐδεὶς ἀναβέβηκεν εἰς τὸν οὐρανὸν εἰ μὴ ὁ ἐκ τοῦ οὐρανοῦ καταβάς, ὁ υἱὸς τοῦ ἀνθρώπου. 13

Et nemo ascendit in cælum, nisi qui descendit de cælo, Filius hominis, qui est in cælo. 13

And no man hath ascended up to heaven, but he that came down from heaven, even the Son of man which is in heaven. 13

καὶ καθὼς μωϊσῆς ὕψωσεν τὸν ὄφιν ἐν τῇ ἐρήμῳ, οὕτως ὑψωθῆναι δεῖ τὸν υἱὸν τοῦ ἀνθρώπου, 14

Et sicut Moyses exaltavit serpentem in deserto, ita exaltari oportet Filium hominis: 14

And as Moses lifted up the serpent in the wilderness, even so must the Son of man be lifted up: 14

ἵνα πᾶς ὁ πιστεύων ἐν αὐτῶ ἔχῃ ζωὴν αἰώνιον. 15

ut omnis qui credit in ipsum, non pereat, sed habeat vitam æternam. 15

That whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have eternal life. 15

οὕτως γὰρ ἠγάπησεν ὁ θεὸς τὸν κόσμον, ὥστε τὸν υἱὸν τὸν μονογενῆ ἔδωκεν, ἵνα πᾶς ὁ πιστεύων εἰς αὐτὸν μὴ ἀπόληται ἀλλ᾽ ἔχῃ ζωὴν αἰώνιον. 16

Sic enim Deus dilexit mundum, ut Filium suum unigenitum daret: ut omnis qui credit in eum, non pereat, sed habeat vitam æternam. 16

For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life. 16

οὐ γὰρ ἀπέστειλεν ὁ θεὸς τὸν υἱὸν εἰς τὸν κόσμον ἵνα κρίνῃ τὸν κόσμον, ἀλλ᾽ ἵνα σωθῇ ὁ κόσμος δι᾽ αὐτοῦ. 17

Non enim misit Deus Filium suum in mundum, ut judicet mundum, sed ut salvetur mundus per ipsum. 17

For God sent not his Son into the world to condemn the world; but that the world through him might be saved. 17

ὁ πιστεύων εἰς αὐτὸν οὐ κρίνεται· ὁ δὲ μὴ πιστεύων ἤδη κέκριται, ὅτι μὴ πεπίστευκεν εἰς τὸ ὄνομα τοῦ μονογενοῦς υἱοῦ τοῦ θεοῦ. 18

Qui credit in eum, non judicatur; qui autem non credit, jam judicatus est: quia non credit in nomine unigeniti Filii Dei. 18

He that believeth on him is not condemned: but he that believeth not is condemned already, because he hath not believed in the name of the only begotten Son of God. 18

αὕτη δέ ἐστιν ἡ κρίσις, ὅτι τὸ φῶς ἐλήλυθεν εἰς τὸν κόσμον καὶ ἠγάπησαν οἱ ἄνθρωποι μᾶλλον τὸ σκότος ἢ τὸ φῶς, ἦν γὰρ αὐτῶν πονηρὰ τὰ ἔργα. 19

Hoc est autem judicium: quia lux venit in mundum, et dilexerunt homines magis tenebras quam lucem: erant enim eorum mala opera. 19

And this is the condemnation, that light is come into the world, and men loved darkness rather than light, because their deeds were evil. 19

πᾶς γὰρ ὁ φαῦλα πράσσων μισεῖ τὸ φῶς καὶ οὐκ ἔρχεται πρὸς τὸ φῶς, ἵνα μὴ ἐλεγχθῇ τὰ ἔργα αὐτοῦ· 20

Omnis enim qui male agit, odit lucem, et non venit ad lucem, ut non arguantur opera ejus: 20

For every one that doeth evil hateth the light, neither cometh to the light, lest his deeds should be reproved. 20

ὁ δὲ ποιῶν τὴν ἀλήθειαν ἔρχεται πρὸς τὸ φῶς, ἵνα φανερωθῇ αὐτοῦ τὰ ἔργα ὅτι ἐν θεῶ ἐστιν εἰργασμένα. 21

qui autem facit veritatem, venit ad lucem, ut manifestentur opera ejus, quia in Deo sunt facta. 21

But he that doeth truth cometh to the light, that his deeds may be made manifest, that they are wrought in God. 21

μετὰ ταῦτα ἦλθεν ὁ ἰησοῦς καὶ οἱ μαθηταὶ αὐτοῦ εἰς τὴν ἰουδαίαν γῆν, καὶ ἐκεῖ διέτριβεν μετ᾽ αὐτῶν καὶ ἐβάπτιζεν. 22

Post hæc venit Jesus et discipuli ejus in terram Judæam: et illic demorabatur cum eis, et baptizabat. 22

After these things came Jesus and his disciples into the land of Judaea; and there he tarried with them, and baptized. 22

ἦν δὲ καὶ ὁ ἰωάννης βαπτίζων ἐν αἰνὼν ἐγγὺς τοῦ σαλείμ, ὅτι ὕδατα πολλὰ ἦν ἐκεῖ, καὶ παρεγίνοντο καὶ ἐβαπτίζοντο· 23

Erat autem et Joannes baptizans, in Ænnon, juxta Salim: quia aquæ multæ erant illic, et veniebant et baptizabantur. 23

And John also was baptizing in Aenon near to Salim, because there was much water there: and they came, and were baptized. 23

οὔπω γὰρ ἦν βεβλημένος εἰς τὴν φυλακὴν ὁ ἰωάννης. 24

Nondum enim missus fuerat Joannes in carcerem. 24

For John was not yet cast into prison. 24

ἐγένετο οὗν ζήτησις ἐκ τῶν μαθητῶν ἰωάννου μετὰ ἰουδαίου περὶ καθαρισμοῦ. 25

Facta est autem quæstio ex discipulis Joannis cum Judæis de purificatione. 25

Then there arose a question between some of John’s disciples and the Jews about purifying. 25

καὶ ἦλθον πρὸς τὸν ἰωάννην καὶ εἶπαν αὐτῶ, ῥαββί, ὃς ἦν μετὰ σοῦ πέραν τοῦ ἰορδάνου, ᾧ σὺ μεμαρτύρηκας, ἴδε οὖτος βαπτίζει καὶ πάντες ἔρχονται πρὸς αὐτόν. 26

Et venerunt ad Joannem, et dixerunt ei: Rabbi, qui erat tecum trans Jordanem, cui tu testimonium perhibuisti, ecce hic baptizat, et omnes veniunt ad eum. 26

And they came unto John, and said unto him, Rabbi, he that was with thee beyond Jordan, to whom thou barest witness, behold, the same baptizeth, and all men come to him. 26

ἀπεκρίθη ἰωάννης καὶ εἶπεν, οὐ δύναται ἄνθρωπος λαμβάνειν οὐδὲ ἓν ἐὰν μὴ ᾖ δεδομένον αὐτῶ ἐκ τοῦ οὐρανοῦ. 27

Respondit Joannes, et dixit: Non potest homo accipere quidquam, nisi fuerit ei datum de cælo. 27

John answered and said, A man can receive nothing, except it be given him from heaven. 27

αὐτοὶ ὑμεῖς μοι μαρτυρεῖτε ὅτι εἶπον <ὅτι> οὐκ εἰμὶ ἐγὼ ὁ χριστός, ἀλλ᾽ ὅτι ἀπεσταλμένος εἰμὶ ἔμπροσθεν ἐκείνου. 28

Ipsi vos mihi testimonium perhibetis, quod dixerim: Non sum ego Christus: sed quia missus sum ante illum. 28

Ye yourselves bear me witness, that I said, I am not the Christ, but that I am sent before him. 28

ὁ ἔχων τὴν νύμφην νυμφίος ἐστίν· ὁ δὲ φίλος τοῦ νυμφίου, ὁ ἑστηκὼς καὶ ἀκούων αὐτοῦ, χαρᾷ χαίρει διὰ τὴν φωνὴν τοῦ νυμφίου. αὕτη οὗν ἡ χαρὰ ἡ ἐμὴ πεπλήρωται. 29

Qui habet sponsam, sponsus est: amicus autem sponsi, qui stat, et audit eum, gaudio gaudet propter vocem sponsi. Hoc ergo gaudium meum impletum est. 29

He that hath the bride is the bridegroom: but the friend of the bridegroom, which standeth and heareth him, rejoiceth greatly because of the bridegroom’s voice: this my joy therefore is fulfilled. 29

ἐκεῖνον δεῖ αὐξάνειν, ἐμὲ δὲ ἐλαττοῦσθαι. 30

Illum oportet crescere, me autem minui. 30

He must increase, but I must decrease. 30

ὁ ἄνωθεν ἐρχόμενος ἐπάνω πάντων ἐστίν· ὁ ὢν ἐκ τῆς γῆς ἐκ τῆς γῆς ἐστιν καὶ ἐκ τῆς γῆς λαλεῖ. ὁ ἐκ τοῦ οὐρανοῦ ἐρχόμενος <ἐπάνω πάντων ἐστίν·> 31

Qui desursum venit, super omnes est. Qui est de terra, de terra est, et de terra loquitur. Qui de cælo venit, super omnes est. 31

He that cometh from above is above all: he that is of the earth is earthly, and speaketh of the earth: he that cometh from heaven is above all. 31

ὃ ἑώρακεν καὶ ἤκουσεν τοῦτο μαρτυρεῖ, καὶ τὴν μαρτυρίαν αὐτοῦ οὐδεὶς λαμβάνει. 32

Et quod vidit, et audivit, hoc testatur: et testimonium ejus nemo accipit. 32

And what he hath seen and heard, that he testifieth; and no man receiveth his testimony. 32

ὁ λαβὼν αὐτοῦ τὴν μαρτυρίαν ἐσφράγισεν ὅτι ὁ θεὸς ἀληθής ἐστιν. 33

Qui accepit ejus testimonium signavit, quia Deus verax est. 33

He that hath received his testimony hath set to his seal that God is true. 33

ὃν γὰρ ἀπέστειλεν ὁ θεὸς τὰ ῥήματα τοῦ θεοῦ λαλεῖ, οὐ γὰρ ἐκ μέτρου δίδωσιν τὸ πνεῦμα. 34

Quem enim misit Deus, verba Dei loquitur: non enim ad mensuram dat Deus spiritum. 34

For he whom God hath sent speaketh the words of God: for God giveth not the Spirit by measure unto him. 34

ὁ πατὴρ ἀγαπᾷ τὸν υἱόν, καὶ πάντα δέδωκεν ἐν τῇ χειρὶ αὐτοῦ. 35

Pater diligit Filium et omnia dedit in manu ejus. 35

The Father loveth the Son, and hath given all things into his hand. 35

ὁ πιστεύων εἰς τὸν υἱὸν ἔχει ζωὴν αἰώνιον· ὁ δὲ ἀπειθῶν τῶ υἱῶ οὐκ ὄψεται ζωήν, ἀλλ᾽ ἡ ὀργὴ τοῦ θεοῦ μένει ἐπ᾽ αὐτόν. 36

Qui credit in Filium, habet vitam æternam; qui autem incredulus est Filio, non videbit vitam, sed ira Dei manet super eum. 36

He that believeth on the Son hath everlasting life: and he that believeth not the Son shall not see life; but the wrath of God abideth on him. 36
