ἄνδρες Νινευῖται ἀναστήσονται ἐν τῇ κρίσει μετὰ τῆς γενεᾶς ταύτης καὶ κατακρινοῦσιν αὐτήν ὅτι μετενόησαν εἰς τὸ κήρυγμα Ἰωνᾶ καὶ ἰδού πλεῖον Ἰωνᾶ ὧδε
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.
πρὸς ὃν προσερχόμενοι λίθον ζῶντα ὑπὸ ἀνθρώπων μὲν ἀποδεδοκιμασμένον παρὰ δὲ θεῷ ἐκλεκτὸν ἔντιμον
To whom coming, as unto a living stone, disallowed indeed of men, but chosen of God, and precious,
כִּי הַֽאֻמְנָם יֵשֵׁב אֱלֹהִים אֶת-הָֽאָדָם עַל-הָאָרֶץ הִנֵּה שָׁמַיִם וּשְׁמֵי הַשָּׁמַיִם לֹא יְכַלְכְּלוּךָ אַף כִּֽי-הַבַּיִת הַזֶּה אֲשֶׁר בָּנִֽיתִי׃
But will God in very deed dwell with men on the earth? behold, heaven and the heaven of heavens cannot contain thee; how much less this house which I have built!
הִנְנִי שֹׁלֵחַ מַלְאָכִי וּפִנָּה-דֶרֶךְ לְפָנָי וּפִתְאֹם יָבוֹא אֶל-הֵיכָלוֹ הָאָדוֹן׀ אֲשֶׁר-אַתֶּם מְבַקְשִׁים וּמַלְאַךְ הַבְּרִית אֲשֶׁר-אַתֶּם חֲפֵצִים הִנֵּה-בָא אָמַר יְהוָה צְבָאֽוֹת׃
Behold, I will send my messenger, and he shall prepare the way before me: and the Lord, whom ye seek, shall suddenly come to his temple, even the messenger of the covenant, whom ye delight in: behold, he shall come, saith the LORD of hosts.
וְהִרְעַשְׁתִּי אֶת-כָּל-הַגּוֹיִם וּבָאוּ חֶמְדַּת כָּל-הַגּוֹיִם וּמִלֵּאתִי אֶת-הַבַּיִת הַזֶּה כָּבוֹד אָמַר יְהוָה צְבָאֽוֹת׃
And I will shake all nations, and the desire of all nations shall come: and I will fill this house with glory, saith the LORD of hosts.
ἐποικοδομηθέντες ἐπὶ τῷ θεμελίῳ τῶν ἀποστόλων καὶ προφητῶν ὄντος ἀκρογωνιαίου αὐτοῦ Ἰησοῦ Χριστοῦ
And are built upon the foundation of the apostles and prophets, Jesus Christ himself being the chief corner stone;
ἀπεκρίθη ὁ Ἰησοῦς καὶ εἶπεν αὐτοῖς Λύσατε τὸν ναὸν τοῦτον καὶ ἐν τρισὶν ἡμέραις ἐγερῶ αὐτόν
Jesus answered and said unto them, Destroy this temple, and in three days I will raise up. it
μωροὶ καὶ τυφλοί τίς γὰρ μείζων ἐστίν ὁ χρυσὸς ἢ ὁ ναὸς ὁ ἁγιάζων τὸν χρυσόν;
Ye fools and blind: for whether is greater, the gold, or the temple that sanctifieth the gold?
ὅτι ἐν αὐτῷ κατοικεῖ πᾶν τὸ πλήρωμα τῆς θεότητος σωματικῶς
