Wednesday of the 5th week after Pentecost

But he answered and said unto them, An evil and adulterous generation seeketh after a sign; and there shall no sign be given to it, but the sign of the prophet Jonas:

ὁ δὲ ἀποκριθεὶς εἶπεν αὐτοῖς· γενεὰ πονηρὰ καὶ μοιχαλὶς σημεῖον ἐπιζητεῖ, καὶ σημεῖον οὐ δοθήσεται αὐτῇ εἰμὴ τὸ σημεῖον Ἰωνᾶ τοῦ προφήτου.

Ѻ҆́нъ же ѿвѣща́въ речѐ и҆̀мъ: ро́дъ лꙋка́въ и҆ прелюбодѣ́й зна́менїѧ и҆́щетъ, и҆ зна́менїе не да́стсѧ є҆мꙋ̀, то́кмѡ зна́менїе і҆ѡ́ны прⷪ҇ро́ка:

For as Jonas was three days and three nights in the whale's belly; so shall the Son of man be three days and three nights in the heart of the earth.

ὥσπερ γὰρ ἐγένετο Ἰωνᾶς ὁ προφήτης ἐν τῇ κοιλίᾳ τοῦ κήτους τρεῖς ἡμέρας καὶ τρεῖς νύκτας, οὕτως ἔσται καὶ ὁ υἱὸς τοῦ ἀνθρώπου ἐν τῇ καρδίᾳ τῆς γῆς τρεῖς ἡμέρας καὶ τρεῖς νύκτας.

ꙗ҆́коже бо бѣ̀ і҆ѡ́на во чре́вѣ ки́товѣ трѝ дни̑ и҆ трѝ но́щы, та́кѡ бꙋ́детъ и҆ сн҃ъ чл҃вѣ́ческїй въ се́рдцы землѝ трѝ дни̑ и҆ трѝ но́щы.

The men of Nineveh shall rise in judgment with this generation, and shall condemn it: because they repented at the preaching of Jonas; and, behold, a greater than Jonas is here.

ἄνδρες Νινευῖται ἀναστήσονται ἐν τῇ κρίσει μετὰ τῆς γενεᾶς ταύτης καὶ κατακρινοῦσιν αὐτήν, ὅτι μετενόησαν εἰς τὸ κήρυγμα Ἰωνᾶ, καὶ ἰδοὺ πλεῖον Ἰωνᾶ ὧδε.

Мꙋ́жїе нїнеѵі́тстїи воста́нꙋтъ на сꙋ́дъ съ ро́домъ си́мъ и҆ ѡ҆сꙋ́дѧтъ є҆го̀, ꙗ҆́кѡ пока́ѧшасѧ про́повѣдїю і҆ѡ́ниною: и҆ сѐ, бо́лѣ і҆ѡ́ны здѣ̀.

The queen of the south shall rise up in the judgment with this generation, and shall condemn it: for she came from the uttermost parts of the earth to hear the wisdom of Solomon; and, behold, a greater than Solomon is here.

βασίλισσα νότου ἐγερθήσεται ἐν τῇ κρίσει μετὰ τῆς γενεᾶς ταύτης καὶ κατακρινεῖ αὐτήν, ὅτι ἦλθεν ἐκ τῶν περάτων τῆς γῆς ἀκοῦσαι τὴν σοφίαν Σολομῶνος, καὶ ἰδοὺ πλεῖον Σολομῶνος ὧδε.

Цари́ца ю҆́жскаѧ воста́нетъ на сꙋ́дъ съ ро́домъ си́мъ и҆ ѡ҆сꙋ́дитъ и҆̀, ꙗ҆́кѡ прїи́де ѿ конє́цъ землѝ слы́шати премꙋ́дрость соломѡ́новꙋ: и҆ сѐ, бо́лѣ соломѡ́на здѣ̀.

When the unclean spirit is gone out of a man, he walketh through dry places, seeking rest, and findeth none.

Ὅταν δὲ τὸ ἀκάθαρτον πνεῦμα ἐξέλθῃ ἀπὸ τοῦ ἀνθρώπου, διέρχεται δι᾿ ἀνύδρων τόπων ζητοῦν ἀνάπαυσιν, καὶ οὐχ εὑρίσκει.

Є҆гда́ же нечи́стый дꙋ́хъ и҆зы́детъ ѿ человѣ́ка, прехо́дитъ сквозѣ̀ безвѡ́днаѧ мѣ̑ста, и҆щѧ̀ поко́ѧ, и҆ не ѡ҆брѣта́етъ:

Then he saith, I will return into my house from whence I came out; and when he is come, he findeth it empty, swept, and garnished.

τότε λέγει· εἰς τὸν οἶκόν μου ἐπιστρέψω ὅθεν ἐξῆλθον· καὶ ἐλθὸν εὑρίσκει σχολάζοντα καὶ σεσαρωμένον καὶ κεκοσμημένον.

тогда̀ рече́тъ: возвращꙋ́сѧ въ до́мъ мо́й, ѿню́дꙋже и҆зыдо́хъ. И҆ прише́дъ ѡ҆брѧ́щетъ пра́зденъ, помете́нъ и҆ ᲂу҆кра́шенъ:

Then goeth he, and taketh with himself seven other spirits more wicked than himself, and they enter in and dwell there: and the last state of that man is worse than the first. Even so shall it be also unto this wicked generation.

τότε πορεύεται καὶ παραλαμβάνει μεθ᾿ ἑαυτοῦ ἑπτὰ ἕτερα πνεύματα πονηρότερα ἑαυτοῦ, καὶ εἰσελθόντα κατοικεῖ ἐκεῖ, καὶ γίνεται τὰ ἔσχατα τοῦ ἀνθρώπου ἐκείνου χείρονα τῶν πρώτων. οὕτως ἔσται καὶ τῇ γενεᾷ τῇ πονηρᾷ ταύτῃ.

тогда̀ и҆́детъ и҆ по́йметъ съ собо́ю се́дмь и҆́ныхъ дꙋхѡ́въ лютѣ́йшихъ себє̀, и҆ вше́дше живꙋ́тъ тꙋ̀: и҆ бꙋ́дꙋтъ послѣ̑днѧѧ человѣ́кꙋ томꙋ̀ гѡ́рша пе́рвыхъ. Та́кѡ бꙋ́детъ и҆ ро́дꙋ семꙋ̀ лꙋка́вомꙋ.
