ἄρα οὖν μὴ καθεύδωμεν ὡς καὶ οἱ λοιποί ἀλλὰ γρηγορῶμεν καὶ νήφωμεν
Therefore let us not sleep, as do others; but let us watch and be sober.
Καὶ τοῦτο εἰδότες τὸν καιρόν ὅτι ὥρα ἡμᾶς ἤδη ἐξ ὕπνου ἐγερθῆναι νῦν γὰρ ἐγγύτερον ἡμῶν ἡ σωτηρία ἢ ὅτε ἐπιστεύσαμεν
And that, knowing the time, that now it is high time to awake out of sleep: for now is our salvation nearer than when we believed.
ἐὰν δὲ εἴπῃ ὁ κακὸς δοῦλος ἐκεῖνος ἐν τῇ καρδίᾳ αὐτοῦ Χρονίζει ὁ κύριος μου ἐλθεῖν
But and if that evil servant shall say in his heart, My lord delayeth his coming;
καὶ ὑποστρέψας εὗρεν αὐτοὺς πάλιν καθεύδοντας ἦσαν γὰρ οἱ ὀφθαλμοὶ αὐτῶν βεβαρήμενοι καὶ οὐκ ᾔδεισαν τί αὐτῷ ἀποκριθῶσιν
And when he returned, he found them asleep again, (for their eyes were heavy,) neither wist they what to answer him.
Προσέχετε δὲ ἑαυτοῖς μήποτε βαρυνθῶσιν ὑμῶν αἱ καρδίαι ἐν κραιπάλῃ καὶ μέθῃ καὶ μερίμναις βιωτικαῖς καὶ αἰφνίδιος ἐφ' ὑμᾶς ἐπιστῇ ἡ ἡμέρα ἐκείνη
And take heed to yourselves, lest at any time your hearts be overcharged with surfeiting, and drunkenness, and cares of this life, and so that day come upon you unawares.
χρονίζοντος δὲ τοῦ νυμφίου ἐνύσταξαν πᾶσαι καὶ ἐκάθευδον
While the bridegroom tarried, they all slumbered and slept.
(צפו) צֹפָיו עִוְרִים כֻּלָּם לֹא יָדָעוּ כֻּלָּם כְּלָבִים אִלְּמִים לֹא יוּכְלוּ לִנְבֹּחַ הֹזִים שֹֽׁכְבִים אֹהֲבֵי לָנֽוּם׃
His watchmen are blind: they are all ignorant, they are all dumb dogs, they cannot bark; sleeping, lying down, loving to slumber.
καὶ ἔρχεται καὶ εὑρίσκει αὐτοὺς καθεύδοντας καὶ λέγει τῷ Πέτρῳ Σίμων καθεύδεις οὐκ ἴσχυσας μίαν ὥραν γρηγορῆσαι
And he cometh, and findeth them sleeping, and saith unto Peter, Simon, sleepest thou? couldest not thou watch one hour?
עַד-מָתַי עָצֵל׀ תִּשְׁכָּב מָתַי תָּקוּם מִשְּׁנָתֶֽךָ׃
How long wilt thou sleep, O sluggard? when wilt thou arise out of thy sleep?
מְעַט שֵׁנוֹת מְעַט תְּנוּמוֹת מְעַט׀ חִבֻּק יָדַיִם לִשְׁכָּֽב׃
Yet a little sleep, a little slumber, a little folding of the hands to sleep:
καὶ ἀναστὰς ἀπὸ τῆς προσευχῆς ἐλθὼν πρὸς τοὺς μαθητὰς εὗρεν αὐτοὺς κοιμωμένους ἀπὸ τῆς λύπης
And when he rose up from prayer, and was come to his disciples, he found them sleeping for sorrow,
עַל-מִשְׁכָּבִי בַּלֵּילוֹת בִּקַּשְׁתִּי אֵת שֶׁאָהֲבָה נַפְשִׁי בִּקַּשְׁתִּיו וְלֹא מְצָאתִֽיו׃
By night on my bed I sought him whom my soul loveth: I sought him, but I found him not.
אֲנִי יְשֵׁנָה וְלִבִּי עֵר קוֹל׀ דּוֹדִי דוֹפֵק פִּתְחִי-לִי אֲחֹתִי רַעְיָתִי יוֹנָתִי תַמָּתִי שֶׁרֹּאשִׁי נִמְלָא-טָל קְוֻּצּוֹתַי רְסִיסֵי לָֽיְלָה׃
I sleep, but my heart waketh: it is the voice of my beloved that knocketh, saying, Open to me, my sister, my love, my dove, my undefiled: for my head is filled with dew, and my locks with the drops of the night.
διὸ λέγει Ἔγειραι ὁ καθεύδων καὶ ἀνάστα ἐκ τῶν νεκρῶν καὶ ἐπιφαύσει σοι ὁ Χριστός
Wherefore he saith, Awake thou that sleepest, and arise from the dead, and Christ thee shall give light.
