< Luke 20 >

1 On one of those days, as he was teaching the people in the temple and preaching the Good News, the priests and scribes came to him with the elders.
ⲁ̅ⲁⲥϣⲱⲡⲉ ⲇⲉ ⲛⲟⲩϩⲟⲟⲩ ⲉϥϯⲥⲃⲱ ⲙ̅ⲡⲗⲁⲟⲥ ϩⲙ̅ⲡⲉⲣⲡⲉ ⲁⲩⲱ ⲉϥⲉⲩⲁⲅⲅⲉⲗⲓⲍⲉ ⲁⲛⲁⲣⲭⲓⲉⲣⲉⲩⲥ ⲉ͡ⲓ ⲉϫⲱϥ ⲛⲙ̅ⲛⲉⲅⲣⲁⲙⲙⲁⲧⲉⲩⲥ ⲛⲙ̅ⲛⲉⲡⲣⲉⲥⲃⲩⲧⲉⲣⲟⲥ
2 They asked him, “Tell us: by what authority do you do these things? Or who is giving you this authority?”

3 He answered them, “I also will ask you one question. Tell me:

5 They reasoned with themselves, saying, “If we say, ‘From heaven,’ he will say, ‘Why didn’t you believe him?’

6 But if we say, ‘From men,’ all the people will stone us, for they are persuaded that John was a prophet.”

7 They answered that they didn’t know where it was from.

8 Jesus said to them, “Neither will I tell you by what authority I do these things.”

9 He began to tell the people this parable: “A man planted a vineyard and rented it out to some farmers, and went into another country for a long time.
ⲑ̅ⲁϥⲁⲣⲭⲓ ⲇⲉ ⲛ̅ϫⲱ ⲙ̅ⲡⲗⲁⲟⲥ ⲛ̅ⲧⲉⲓ̈ⲡⲁⲣⲁⲃⲟⲗⲏ ϫⲉ ⲟⲩⲣⲱⲙⲉ ⲡⲉⲛⲧⲁϥⲧⲱϭⲉ ⲛ̅ⲟⲩⲙⲁ ⲛⲉⲗⲟⲟⲗⲉ ⲁϥⲧⲁⲁⲁϥ ⲛ̅ϩⲉⲛⲟⲩⲉⲓ̈ⲏ ⲁϥⲁⲡⲟⲇⲏⲙⲉⲓ ⲛ̅ϩⲉⲛⲛ̅ⲟϭ ⲛ̅ⲟⲩⲟⲓ̈ϣ.
10 At the proper season, he sent a servant to the farmers to collect his share of the fruit of the vineyard. But the farmers beat him and sent him away empty.
ⲓ̅ϩⲙ̅ⲡⲉⲩⲟⲉⲓϣ ⲇⲉ ⲛⲛ̅ⲕⲁⲣⲡⲟⲥ ⲁϥϫⲉⲩⲟⲩϩⲙ̅ϩⲁⲗ ⲛ̅ⲟⲩⲉⲓ̈ⲏ ϫⲉ ⲉⲩⲉϯ ⲛⲁϥ ϩⲙ̅ⲡⲕⲁⲣⲡⲟⲥ ⲙ̅ⲡⲙⲁ ⲛⲉⲗⲟⲟⲗⲉ. ⲛ̅ⲟⲩⲉⲓ̈ⲏ ⲇⲉ ⲁⲩϩⲓⲟⲩⲉ ⲉⲣⲟϥ ⲁⲩϫⲛⲁϥ ⲉϥϣⲟⲩⲉⲓⲧʾ
11 He sent yet another servant, and they also beat him and treated him shamefully, and sent him away empty.
ⲓ̅ⲁ̅ⲁⲩⲱ ⲁϥⲟⲩⲱϩ ⲉⲧⲟⲟⲧϥ̅ ⲉϫⲟⲟⲩ ⲛ̅ⲕⲉϩⲙ̅ϩⲁⲗ ⲛ̅ⲧⲟⲟⲩ ⲇⲉ ⲁⲩϩⲓⲟⲩⲉ ⲉⲡⲕⲉⲟⲩⲁ ⲁⲩⲥⲟϣϥ̅ ⲁⲩϫⲟⲟⲩϥ ⲉϥϣⲟⲩⲉⲓⲧʾ
12 He sent yet a third, and they also wounded him and threw him out.
ⲓ̅ⲃ̅ⲁϥⲟⲩⲱϩ ⲉⲧⲟⲟⲧϥ̅ ⲉϫⲟⲟⲩ ⲙ̅ⲡⲙⲉϩϣⲟⲙⲛ̅ⲧʾ ⲛⲧⲟⲟⲩ ⲇⲉ ⲁⲩⲕⲗϩ̅ⲡⲉⲓ̈ⲕⲉⲧʾ ⲁⲩⲛⲟϫϥ̅ ⲉⲃⲟⲗ.
13 The lord of the vineyard said, ‘What shall I do? I will send my beloved son. It may be that seeing him, they will respect him.’
ⲓ̅ⲅ̅ⲡⲉϫⲉⲡϫⲟⲉⲓⲥ ⲇⲉ ⲙ̅ⲡⲙⲁ ⲛⲉⲗⲟⲟⲗⲉ ϫⲉ ⲉⲓ̈ⲛⲁⲣⲟⲩ ϯⲛⲁϫⲟⲟⲩ ⲙ̅ⲡⲁϣⲏⲣⲉ ⲙ̅ⲙⲉⲣⲓⲧʾ ⲙⲉϣⲁⲕ ⲉⲩⲉϣⲓⲡⲉ ϩⲏⲧϥ̅ ⲙ̅ⲡⲁⲓ̈.
14 “But when the farmers saw him, they reasoned among themselves, saying, ‘This is the heir. Come, let’s kill him, that the inheritance may be ours.’
ⲓ̅ⲇ̅ⲁⲛⲟⲩⲉⲓ̈ⲏ ⲇⲉ ⲛⲁⲩ ⲉⲣⲟϥ ⲁⲩϣⲟϫⲛⲉ ⲛⲙ̅ⲛⲉⲩⲉⲣⲏⲩ ⲉⲩϫⲱ ⲙ̅ⲙⲟⲥ ϫⲉ ⲡⲁⲓ̈ ⲡⲉ ⲡⲉⲕⲗⲏⲣⲟⲛⲟⲙⲟⲥ ⲙⲁⲣⲛ̅ⲙⲟⲟⲩⲧϥ̅ ϫⲉ ⲉⲣⲉⲧⲉⲕⲗⲏⲣⲟⲛⲟⲙⲓⲁ ϣⲱⲡⲉ ⲛⲁⲛ.
15 Then they threw him out of the vineyard and killed him. What therefore will the lord of the vineyard do to them?

16 He will come and destroy these farmers, and will give the vineyard to others.” When they heard that, they said, “May that never be!”

17 But he looked at them and said, “Then what is this that is written, ‘The stone which the builders rejected was made the chief cornerstone’?
ⲓ̅ⲍ̅ⲛ̅ⲧⲟϥ ⲇⲉ ⲁϥϭⲱϣⲧ̅ʾ ⲉϩⲟⲩⲛ ⲉϩⲣⲁⲩ ⲡⲉϫⲁϥ ⲛⲁⲩ ϫⲉ. ⲟⲩ ⲛ̅ⲧⲟⲟⲩⲛ ⲡⲉ ⲡⲁⲓ̈ ⲉⲧⲥⲏϩ ϫⲉ ⲡⲱⲛⲉ ⲉⲛⲧⲁⲛⲉⲧⲕⲱⲧʾ ⲥⲧⲟϥ ⲉⲃⲟⲗ ⲡⲁⲓ̈ ⲁϥϣⲱⲡⲉ ⲉⲩⲁⲡⲉ ⲛ̅ⲕⲟⲟϩ.

19 The chief priests and the scribes sought to lay hands on him that very hour, but they feared the people—for they knew he had spoken this parable against them.

20 They watched him and sent out spies, who pretended to be righteous, that they might trap him in something he said, so as to deliver him up to the power and authority of the governor.

21 They asked him, “Teacher, we know that you say and teach what is right, and aren’t partial to anyone, but truly teach the way of God.

23 But he perceived their craftiness, and said to them, “Why do you test me?

26 They weren’t able to trap him in his words before the people. They marveled at his answer and were silent.

27 Some of the Sadducees came to him, those who deny that there is a resurrection.

28 They asked him, “Teacher, Moses wrote to us that if a man’s brother dies having a wife, and he is childless, his brother should take the wife and raise up children for his brother.
