E-le-gen de TAU-tên tên pa-ra-bo-LEEN sy-KEEN EI-khen tis pe-phy-teu-ME-nên en tôi am-pe-LO-ni au-TOU kai ÊL-then dzê-TÔN kar-PON en au-TÊI kai oukh HEU-ren
Exegesis
The verb eichen {εἶχέν | eî-chen} takes tis {τις | tis} as subject, “a certain one,” and the locative en to ampeloni autou {ἐν τῷ ἀμπελῶνι αὐτοῦ | en tô am-pe-lô-ni au-toû} identifies “his vineyard.”
The object karpon {καρπὸν | kar-pon} ‘fruit’ is marked by en aute {ἐν αὐτῇ | en au-tē} on the tree, and the placement of the negative particle oukh {οὐχ | oukh} before the aorist heuren {εὗρεν | heu-ren} ‘he found’ emphasizes the failure to discover any fruit.
