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.
ཨཐཻཀདཱ ཡཱིཤུ རྨནིདརེ སུསཾཝཱདཾ པྲཙཱརཡན྄ ལོཀཱནུཔདིཤཏི, ཨེཏརྷི པྲདྷཱནཡཱཛཀཱ ཨདྷྱཱཔཀཱཿ པྲཱཉྩཤྩ ཏནྣིཀཊམཱགཏྱ པཔྲཙྪུཿ
2 They asked him, “Tell us: by what authority do you do these things? Or who is giving you this authority?”
ཀཡཱཛྙཡཱ ཏྭཾ ཀརྨྨཱཎྱེཏཱནི ཀརོཥི? ཀོ ཝཱ ཏྭཱམཱཛྙཱཔཡཏ྄? ཏདསྨཱན྄ ཝད།
3 He answered them, “I also will ask you one question. Tell me:
ས པྲཏྱུཝཱཙ, ཏརྷི ཡུཥྨཱནཔི ཀཐཱམེཀཱཾ པྲྀཙྪཱམི ཏསྱོཏྟརཾ ཝདཏ།
4 the baptism of John, was it from heaven, or from men?”
ཡོཧནོ མཛྫནམ྄ ཨཱིཤྭརསྱ མཱནུཥཱཎཱཾ ཝཱཛྙཱཏོ ཛཱཏཾ?
5 They reasoned with themselves, saying, “If we say, ‘From heaven,’ he will say, ‘Why didn’t you believe him?’
ཏཏསྟེ མིཐོ ཝིཝིཙྱ ཛགདུཿ, ཡདཱིཤྭརསྱ ཝདཱམསྟརྷི ཏཾ ཀུཏོ ན པྲཏྱཻཏ ས ཨིཏི ཝཀྵྱཏི།
6 But if we say, ‘From men,’ all the people will stone us, for they are persuaded that John was a prophet.”
ཡདི མནུཥྱསྱེཏི ཝདཱམསྟརྷི སཪྻྭེ ལོཀཱ ཨསྨཱན྄ པཱཥཱཎཻ རྷནིཥྱནྟི ཡཏོ ཡོཧན྄ བྷཝིཥྱདྭཱདཱིཏི སཪྻྭེ དྲྀཌྷཾ ཛཱནནྟི།
7 They answered that they didn’t know where it was from.
ཨཏཨེཝ ཏེ པྲཏྱཱུཙུཿ ཀསྱཱཛྙཡཱ ཛཱཏམ྄ ཨིཏི ཝཀྟུཾ ན ཤཀྣུམཿ།
8 Jesus said to them, “Neither will I tell you by what authority I do these things.”
ཏདཱ ཡཱིཤུརཝདཏ྄ ཏརྷི ཀཡཱཛྙཡཱ ཀརྨྨཱཎྱེཏཱཏི ཀརོམཱིཏི ཙ ཡུཥྨཱན྄ ན ཝཀྵྱཱམི།
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.
ཨཐ ལོཀཱནཱཾ སཱཀྵཱཏ྄ ས ཨིམཱཾ དྲྀཥྚཱནྟཀཐཱཾ ཝཀྟུམཱརེབྷེ, ཀཤྩིད྄ དྲཱཀྵཱཀྵེཏྲཾ ཀྲྀཏྭཱ ཏཏ྄ ཀྵེཏྲཾ ཀྲྀཥཱིཝལཱནཱཾ ཧསྟེཥུ སམརྤྱ བཧུཀཱལཱརྠཾ དཱུརདེཤཾ ཛགཱམ།
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.
ཨཐ ཕལཀཱལེ ཕལཱནི གྲཧཱིཏུ ཀྲྀཥཱིཝལཱནཱཾ སམཱིཔེ དཱསཾ པྲཱཧིཎོཏ྄ ཀིནྟུ ཀྲྀཥཱིཝལཱསྟཾ པྲཧྲྀཏྱ རིཀྟཧསྟཾ ཝིསསརྫུཿ།
11 He sent yet another servant, and they also beat him and treated him shamefully, and sent him away empty.
ཏཏཿ སོདྷིཔཏིཿ པུནརནྱཾ དཱསཾ པྲེཥཡཱམཱས, ཏེ ཏམཔི པྲཧྲྀཏྱ ཀུཝྱཝཧྲྀཏྱ རིཀྟཧསྟཾ ཝིསསྲྀཛུཿ།
12 He sent yet a third, and they also wounded him and threw him out.
ཏཏཿ ས ཏྲྀཏཱིཡཝཱརམ྄ ཨནྱཾ པྲཱཧིཎོཏ྄ ཏེ ཏམཔི ཀྵཏཱངྒཾ ཀྲྀཏྭཱ བཧི རྣིཙིཀྵིཔུཿ།
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.’
ཏདཱ ཀྵེཏྲཔཏི ཪྻིཙཱརཡཱམཱས, མམེདཱནཱིཾ ཀིཾ ཀརྟྟཝྱཾ? མམ པྲིཡེ པུཏྲེ པྲཧིཏེ ཏེ ཏམཝཤྱཾ དྲྀཥྚྭཱ སམཱདརིཥྱནྟེ།
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.’
ཀིནྟུ ཀྲྀཥཱིཝལཱསྟཾ ནིརཱིཀྵྱ པརསྤརཾ ཝིཝིཙྱ པྲོཙུཿ, ཨཡམུཏྟརཱདྷིཀཱརཱི ཨཱགཙྪཏཻནཾ ཧནྨསྟཏོདྷིཀཱརོསྨཱཀཾ བྷཝིཥྱཏི།
15 Then they threw him out of the vineyard and killed him. What therefore will the lord of the vineyard do to them?
ཏཏསྟེ ཏཾ ཀྵེཏྲཱད྄ བཧི རྣིཔཱཏྱ ཛགྷྣུསྟསྨཱཏ྄ ས ཀྵེཏྲཔཏིསྟཱན྄ པྲཏི ཀིཾ ཀརིཥྱཏི?
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!”
ས ཨཱགཏྱ ཏཱན྄ ཀྲྀཥཱིཝལཱན྄ ཧཏྭཱ པརེཥཱཾ ཧསྟེཥུ ཏཏྐྵེཏྲཾ སམརྤཡིཥྱཏི; ཨིཏི ཀཐཱཾ ཤྲུཏྭཱ ཏེ ྅ཝདན྄ ཨེཏཱདྲྀཤཱི གྷཊནཱ ན བྷཝཏུ།
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’?
ཀིནྟུ ཡཱིཤུསྟཱནཝལོཀྱ ཛགཱད, ཏརྷི, སྠཔཏཡཿ ཀརིཥྱནྟི གྲཱཝཱཎཾ ཡནྟུ ཏུཙྪཀཾ། པྲདྷཱནཔྲསྟརཿ ཀོཎེ ས ཨེཝ ཧི བྷཝིཥྱཏི། ཨེཏསྱ ཤཱསྟྲཱིཡཝཙནསྱ ཀིཾ ཏཱཏྤཪྻྱཾ?
18 Everyone who falls on that stone will be broken to pieces, but it will crush whomever it falls on to dust.”
ཨཔརཾ ཏཏྤཱཥཱཎོཔརི ཡཿ པཏིཥྱཏི ས བྷཾཀྵྱཏེ ཀིནྟུ ཡསྱོཔརི ས པཱཥཱཎཿ པཏིཥྱཏི ས ཏེན དྷཱུལིཝཙ྄ ཙཱུརྞཱིབྷཝིཥྱཏི།
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.
སོསྨཱཀཾ ཝིརུདྡྷཾ དྲྀཥྚཱནྟམིམཾ ཀཐིཏཝཱན྄ ཨིཏི ཛྙཱཏྭཱ པྲདྷཱནཡཱཛཀཱ ཨདྷྱཱཔཀཱཤྩ ཏདཻཝ ཏཾ དྷརྟུཾ ཝཝཱཉྪུཿ ཀིནྟུ ལོཀེབྷྱོ བིབྷྱུཿ།
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.
ཨཏཨེཝ ཏཾ པྲཏི སཏརྐཱཿ སནྟཿ ཀཐཾ ཏདྭཱཀྱདོཥཾ དྷྲྀཏྭཱ ཏཾ དེཤཱདྷིཔསྱ སཱདྷུཝེཤདྷཱརིཎཤྩརཱན྄ ཏསྱ སམཱིཔེ པྲེཥཡཱམཱསུཿ།
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.
ཏདཱ ཏེ ཏཾ པཔྲཙྪུཿ, ཧེ ཨུཔདེཤཀ བྷཝཱན྄ ཡཐཱརྠཾ ཀཐཡན྄ ཨུཔདིཤཏི, ཀམཔྱནཔེཀྵྱ སཏྱཏྭེནཻཤྭརཾ མཱརྒམུཔདིཤཏི, ཝཡམེཏཛྫཱནཱིམཿ།
22 Is it lawful for us to pay taxes to Caesar, or not?”
ཀཻསརརཱཛཱཡ ཀརོསྨཱབྷི རྡེཡོ ན ཝཱ?
23 But he perceived their craftiness, and said to them, “Why do you test me?
ས ཏེཥཱཾ ཝཉྩནཾ ཛྙཱཏྭཱཝདཏ྄ ཀུཏོ མཱཾ པརཱིཀྵདྷྭེ? མཱཾ མུདྲཱམེཀཾ དརྴཡཏ།
24 Show me a denarius. Whose image and inscription are on it?” They answered, “Caesar’s.”
ཨིཧ ལིཁིཏཱ མཱུརྟིརིཡཾ ནཱམ ཙ ཀསྱ? ཏེ྅ཝདན྄ ཀཻསརསྱ།
25 He said to them, “Then give to Caesar the things that are Caesar’s, and to God the things that are God’s.”
ཏདཱ ས ཨུཝཱཙ, ཏརྷི ཀཻསརསྱ དྲཝྱཾ ཀཻསརཱཡ དཏྟ; ཨཱིཤྭརསྱ ཏུ དྲཝྱམཱིཤྭརཱཡ དཏྟ།
26 They weren’t able to trap him in his words before the people. They marveled at his answer and were silent.
ཏསྨཱལློཀཱནཱཾ སཱཀྵཱཏ྄ ཏཏྐཐཱཡཱཿ ཀམཔི དོཥཾ དྷརྟུམཔྲཱཔྱ ཏེ ཏསྱོཏྟརཱད྄ ཨཱཤྩཪྻྱཾ མནྱམཱནཱ མཽནིནསྟསྠུཿ།
27 Some of the Sadducees came to him, those who deny that there is a resurrection.
ཨཔརཉྩ ཤྨཤཱནཱདུཏྠཱནཱནངྒཱིཀཱརིཎཱཾ སིདཱུཀིནཱཾ ཀིཡནྟོ ཛནཱ ཨཱགཏྱ ཏཾ པཔྲཙྪུཿ,
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.
ཧེ ཨུཔདེཤཀ ཤཱསྟྲེ མཱུསཱ ཨསྨཱན྄ པྲཏཱིཏི ལིལེཁ ཡསྱ བྷྲཱཏཱ བྷཱཪྻྱཱཡཱཾ སཏྱཱཾ ནིཿསནྟཱནོ མྲིཡཏེ ས ཏཛྫཱཡཱཾ ཝིཝཧྱ ཏདྭཾཤམ྄ ཨུཏྤཱདཡིཥྱཏི།
29 There were therefore seven brothers. The first took a wife, and died childless.
ཏཐཱཙ ཀེཙིཏ྄ སཔྟ བྷྲཱཏར ཨཱསན྄ ཏེཥཱཾ ཛྱེཥྛོ བྷྲཱཏཱ ཝིཝཧྱ ནིརཔཏྱཿ པྲཱཎཱན྄ ཛཧཽ།
30 The second took her as wife, and he died childless.

31 The third took her, and likewise the seven all left no children, and died.
ཨིཏྠཾ སཔྟ བྷྲཱཏརསྟཱམེཝ ཝིཝཧྱ ནིརཔཏྱཱཿ སནྟོ མམྲུཿ།
32 Afterward the woman also died.
ཤེཥེ སཱ སྟྲཱི ཙ མམཱར།
33 Therefore in the resurrection whose wife of them will she be? For the seven had her as a wife.”
ཨཏཨེཝ ཤྨཤཱནཱདུཏྠཱནཀཱལེ ཏེཥཱཾ སཔྟཛནཱནཱཾ ཀསྱ སཱ བྷཱཪྻྱཱ བྷཝིཥྱཏི? ཡཏཿ སཱ ཏེཥཱཾ སཔྟཱནཱམེཝ བྷཱཪྻྱཱསཱིཏ྄།

35 But those who are considered worthy to attain to that age and the resurrection from the dead neither marry nor are given in marriage. (aiōn g165)
ཀིནྟུ ཡེ ཏཛྫགཏྤྲཱཔྟིཡོགྱཏྭེན གཎིཏཱཾ བྷཝིཥྱནྟི ཤྨཤཱནཱཙྩོཏྠཱསྱནྟི ཏེ ན ཝིཝཧནྟི ཝཱགྡཏྟཱཤྩ ན བྷཝནྟི, (aiōn g165)
36 For they can’t die any more, for they are like the angels and are children of God, being children of the resurrection.

37 But that the dead are raised, even Moses showed at the bush, when he called the Lord ‘The God of Abraham, the God of Isaac, and the God of Jacob.’
ཨདྷིཀནྟུ མཱུསཱཿ སྟམྦོཔཱཁྱཱནེ པརམེཤྭར ཨཱིབྲཱཧཱིམ ཨཱིཤྭར ཨིསྷཱཀ ཨཱིཤྭརོ ཡཱཀཱུབཤྩེཤྭར ཨིཏྱུཀྟྭཱ མྲྀཏཱནཱཾ ཤྨཤཱནཱད྄ ཨུཏྠཱནསྱ པྲམཱཎཾ ལིལེཁ།
38 Now he is not the God of the dead, but of the living, for all are alive to him.”

39 Some of the scribes answered, “Teacher, you speak well.”

40 They didn’t dare to ask him any more questions.
ཨིཏཿ པརཾ ཏཾ ཀིམཔི པྲཥྚཾ ཏེཥཱཾ པྲགལྦྷཏཱ ནཱབྷཱུཏ྄།
41 He said to them, “Why do they say that the Christ is David’s son?

42 David himself says in the book of Psalms, ‘The Lord said to my Lord, “Sit at my right hand,

ཨིཏི ཀཐཱཾ དཱཡཱུད྄ སྭཡཾ གཱིཏགྲནྠེ྅ཝདཏ྄།
44 “David therefore calls him Lord, so how is he his son?”

45 In the hearing of all the people, he said to his disciples,

46 “Beware of those scribes who like to walk in long robes, and love greetings in the marketplaces, the best seats in the synagogues, and the best places at feasts;

47 who devour widows’ houses, and for a pretense make long prayers. These will receive greater condemnation.”
