Quotation · Luke 22:37
Go to Luke 22:37Jesus applies to himself a sentence from Isaiah 53:12, on the eve of his death: “he was counted with the lawless.”
Formula: τοῦτο τὸ γεγραμμένον δεῖ τελεσθῆναι ἐν ἐμοί “this that is written must be accomplished in me” (Luke 22:37)
See the original texts
Greek of the New Testament: λέγω γὰρ ὑμῖν ὅτι τοῦτο τὸ γεγραμμένον δεῖ τελεσθῆναι ἐν ἐμοί τό Καὶ μετὰ ἀνόμων ἐλογίσθη καὶ γὰρ τὸ περὶ ἐμοῦ τέλος ἔχει
Hebrew (Masoretic text): לָכֵן אֲחַלֶּק לוֹ בָרַבִּים וְאֶת עֲצוּמִים יְחַלֵּק שָׁלָל תַּחַת אֲשֶׁר הֶעֱרָה לַמָּוֶת נַפְשׁוֹ וְאֶת פֹּשְׁעִים נִמְנָה וְהוּא חֵטְא רַבִּים נָשָׂא וְלַפֹּשְׁעִים יַפְגִּיעַ
Septuagint (Isaiah 53:12 in the Septuagint numbering): διὰ τοῦτο αὐτὸς κληρονομήσει πολλούς, καὶ τῶν ἰσχυρῶν μεριεῖ σκῦλα· ἀνθ’ ὧν παρεδόθη εἷς θάνατον ἡ αὐτοῦ, καὶ ἐν τοῖς ἀνόμοις ἐλογίσθη, καὶ αὐτὸς ἁμαρτίας πολλῶν ἀνήνεγκεν, καὶ διὰ τὰς ἁμαρτίας αὐτῶν παρεδόθη.
