< Luke 20 >

1 And it came to pass, that, on one of those days, while he was teaching the people in the temple, and preaching the gospel, the chief priests and the scribes, with the elders, came to him,
και εγενετο εν μια των ημερων εκεινων διδασκοντος αυτου τον λαον εν τω ιερω και ευαγγελιζομενου επεστησαν οι αρχιερεις και οι γραμματεις συν τοις πρεσβυτεροις
2 and spoke to him, saying: Tell us by what authority you do these things? or, who is he that gave you this authority?
και ειπον προς αυτον λεγοντες ειπε ημιν εν ποια εξουσια ταυτα ποιεις η τις εστιν ο δους σοι την εξουσιαν ταυτην
3 And he answered and said to them: I also will ask you one thing, and do you answer me.
αποκριθεις δε ειπεν προς αυτους ερωτησω υμας καγω ενα λογον και ειπατε μοι
4 Was the immersion of John from heaven, or from men?
το βαπτισμα ιωαννου εξ ουρανου ην η εξ ανθρωπων
5 And they reasoned among themselves, saying: If we say, From heaven, he will reply: Why, then, did you not believe him?
οι δε συνελογισαντο προς εαυτους λεγοντες οτι εαν ειπωμεν εξ ουρανου ερει δια τι ουν ουκ επιστευσατε αυτω
6 But if we say, From men, all the people will stone us; for they believe that John was a prophet.
εαν δε ειπωμεν εξ ανθρωπων πας ο λαος καταλιθασει ημας πεπεισμενος γαρ εστιν ιωαννην προφητην ειναι
7 And they answered, that they knew not whence it was.
και απεκριθησαν μη ειδεναι ποθεν
8 And Jesus said to them: Nor do I tell you by what authority I do these things.
και ο ιησους ειπεν αυτοις ουδε εγω λεγω υμιν εν ποια εξουσια ταυτα ποιω
9 And he began to speak this parable to the people: A man planted a vineyard, and let it out to vine-dressers, and was absent from home for a long time.
ηρξατο δε προς τον λαον λεγειν την παραβολην ταυτην ανθρωπος τις εφυτευσεν αμπελωνα και εξεδοτο αυτον γεωργοις και απεδημησεν χρονους ικανους
10 And at the proper season, he sent a servant to those vine-dressers, that they should give him of the fruit of the vineyard. But the vine-dressers scourged him, and sent him away empty-handed.
και εν καιρω απεστειλεν προς τους γεωργους δουλον ινα απο του καρπου του αμπελωνος δωσιν αυτω οι δε γεωργοι δειραντες αυτον εξαπεστειλαν κενον
11 And he then sent another servant. But they scourged him also, and treated him shamefully, and sent him away empty-handed.
και προσεθετο πεμψαι ετερον δουλον οι δε κακεινον δειραντες και ατιμασαντες εξαπεστειλαν κενον
12 And he also sent a third; but they wounded him, and drove him out.
και προσεθετο πεμψαι τριτον οι δε και τουτον τραυματισαντες εξεβαλον
13 And the owner of the vineyard said: What shall I do? I will send my beloved son; perhaps, when they see him, they will reverence him.
ειπεν δε ο κυριος του αμπελωνος τι ποιησω πεμψω τον υιον μου τον αγαπητον ισως τουτον ιδοντες εντραπησονται
14 But when the vine-dressers saw him, they reasoned among themselves, saying: This is the heir; come, let us kill him, that the inheritance may be ours.
ιδοντες δε αυτον οι γεωργοι διελογιζοντο προς εαυτους λεγοντες ουτος εστιν ο κληρονομος δευτε αποκτεινωμεν αυτον ινα ημων γενηται η κληρονομια
15 And they drove him out of the vineyard, and killed him. What, then, will the owner of the vineyard do to them?
και εκβαλοντες αυτον εξω του αμπελωνος απεκτειναν τι ουν ποιησει αυτοις ο κυριος του αμπελωνος
16 He will come and destroy these vine-dressers, and will give his vineyard to others. And when they heard it, they said: Be it not so!
ελευσεται και απολεσει τους γεωργους τουτους και δωσει τον αμπελωνα αλλοις ακουσαντες δε ειπον μη γενοιτο
17 And he looked on them and said: What, then, does this mean, which is written, The stone which the builders rejected has become the head of the corner?
ο δε εμβλεψας αυτοις ειπεν τι ουν εστιν το γεγραμμενον τουτο λιθον ον απεδοκιμασαν οι οικοδομουντες ουτος εγενηθη εις κεφαλην γωνιας
18 Whoever shall fall on this stone, shall be dashed to pieces; but on whomever it shall fall, it will make him as chaff for the wind.
πας ο πεσων επ εκεινον τον λιθον συνθλασθησεται εφ ον δ αν πεση λικμησει αυτον
19 And the chief priests and the scribes sought to lay hands on him, the same hour; (and yet they feared the people; ) for they knew that he spoke this parable against them.
και εζητησαν οι αρχιερεις και οι γραμματεις επιβαλειν επ αυτον τας χειρας εν αυτη τη ωρα και εφοβηθησαν τον λαον εγνωσαν γαρ οτι προς αυτους την παραβολην ταυτην ειπεν
20 And they watched him, and sent spies, who feigned them selves to be just men, that they might take hold of his words, in order to deliver him up to the power and authority of the governor.
και παρατηρησαντες απεστειλαν εγκαθετους υποκρινομενους εαυτους δικαιους ειναι ινα επιλαβωνται αυτου λογου εις το παραδουναι αυτον τη αρχη και τη εξουσια του ηγεμονος
21 And they asked him, saying: Teacher, we know that you speak and teach rightly, and do not regard the person of any, but teach the way of God in truth.
και επηρωτησαν αυτον λεγοντες διδασκαλε οιδαμεν οτι ορθως λεγεις και διδασκεις και ου λαμβανεις προσωπον αλλ επ αληθειας την οδον του θεου διδασκεις
22 Is it lawful for us to give tribute to Cæsar, or not?
εξεστιν ημιν καισαρι φορον δουναι η ου
23 But he perceived their cunning, and said to them: Why do you tempt me?
κατανοησας δε αυτων την πανουργιαν ειπεν προς αυτους τι με πειραζετε
24 Show me a denarius. Whose image and superscription has it? They answered and said: Cæsar’s.
επιδειξατε μοι δηναριον τινος εχει εικονα και επιγραφην αποκριθεντες δε ειπον καισαρος
25 He said to them: Give, therefore, to Cæsar the things that are Cæsar’s, and to God the things that are God’s.
ο δε ειπεν αυτοις αποδοτε τοινυν τα καισαρος καισαρι και τα του θεου τω θεω
26 And they were not able to take hold of his words before the people. And they were astonished at his answer, and were silent.
και ουκ ισχυσαν επιλαβεσθαι αυτου ρηματος εναντιον του λαου και θαυμασαντες επι τη αποκρισει αυτου εσιγησαν
27 Then there came to him some of the Sadducees, (these deny that there is any resurrection, ) and asked him,
προσελθοντες δε τινες των σαδδουκαιων οι αντιλεγοντες αναστασιν μη ειναι επηρωτησαν αυτον
28 saying: Teacher, Moses wrote for us, If any man’s brother die, having a wife, and he die without children, that his brother should take his wife, and raise up children for his brother.
λεγοντες διδασκαλε μωσης εγραψεν ημιν εαν τινος αδελφος αποθανη εχων γυναικα και ουτος ατεκνος αποθανη ινα λαβη ο αδελφος αυτου την γυναικα και εξαναστηση σπερμα τω αδελφω αυτου
29 There were, therefore, seven brothers; and the first took a wife, and died without children;
επτα ουν αδελφοι ησαν και ο πρωτος λαβων γυναικα απεθανεν ατεκνος
30 and the second took his wife, and he died without children;
και ελαβεν ο δευτερος την γυναικα και ουτος απεθανεν ατεκνος
31 and the third took her; and in like manner also the seven; and they left no children, and died.
και ο τριτος ελαβεν αυτην ωσαυτως δε και οι επτα και ου κατελιπον τεκνα και απεθανον
32 Last of all, the woman also died.
υστερον δε παντων απεθανεν και η γυνη
33 Therefore, in the resurrection, of which of them shall she be the wife? for the seven had her as a wife.
εν τη ουν αναστασει τινος αυτων γινεται γυνη οι γαρ επτα εσχον αυτην γυναικα
34 And Jesus answered and said to them: The children of this age marry, and are given in marriage. (aiōn g165)
και αποκριθεις ειπεν αυτοις ο ιησους οι υιοι του αιωνος τουτου γαμουσιν και εκγαμισκονται (aiōn g165)
35 But those who shall be accounted worthy to attain that age, and the resurrection from the dead, neither marry, nor are given in marriage. (aiōn g165)
οι δε καταξιωθεντες του αιωνος εκεινου τυχειν και της αναστασεως της εκ νεκρων ουτε γαμουσιν ουτε εκγαμισκονται (aiōn g165)
36 For they can die no more; for they are like the angels, and are the sons of God, being the sons of the resurrection.
ουτε γαρ αποθανειν ετι δυνανται ισαγγελοι γαρ εισιν και υιοι εισιν του θεου της αναστασεως υιοι οντες
37 But: that the dead are raised, even Moses showed at The Bush, since he calls the Lord the God of Abraham, and the God of Isaac, and the God of Jacob.
οτι δε εγειρονται οι νεκροι και μωσης εμηνυσεν επι της βατου ως λεγει κυριον τον θεον αβρααμ και τον θεον ισαακ και τον θεον ιακωβ
38 He is not a God of the dead, but of the living; for all live to him.
θεος δε ουκ εστιν νεκρων αλλα ζωντων παντες γαρ αυτω ζωσιν
39 And certain of the scribes answered and said: Teacher, thou hast answered well.
αποκριθεντες δε τινες των γραμματεων ειπον διδασκαλε καλως ειπας
40 And after this they durst not ask him any question at all.
ουκετι δε ετολμων επερωταν αυτον ουδεν
41 But he said to them: How say they that the Christ is the son of David?
ειπεν δε προς αυτους πως λεγουσιν τον χριστον υιον δαβιδ ειναι
42 Even David himself says, in the book of Psalms: The Lord said to my Lord, Sit at my right hand,
και αυτος δαβιδ λεγει εν βιβλω ψαλμων ειπεν ο κυριος τω κυριω μου καθου εκ δεξιων μου
43 till I make thy enemies thy footstool.
εως αν θω τους εχθρους σου υποποδιον των ποδων σου
44 David, therefore, calls him Lord; and how is he his son?
δαβιδ ουν κυριον αυτον καλει και πως υιος αυτου εστιν
45 And while all the people were listening, he said to his disciples:
ακουοντος δε παντος του λαου ειπεν τοις μαθηταις αυτου
46 Beware of the scribes, who delight to walk in robes, and love greetings in the markets, and the first seats in the synagogues, and the first places at suppers;
προσεχετε απο των γραμματεων των θελοντων περιπατειν εν στολαις και φιλουντων ασπασμους εν ταις αγοραις και πρωτοκαθεδριας εν ταις συναγωγαις και πρωτοκλισιας εν τοις δειπνοις
47 who eat up the houses of widows, and, for a pretext, make long prayers. These shall receive the greater condemnation.
οι κατεσθιουσιν τας οικιας των χηρων και προφασει μακρα προσευχονται ουτοι ληψονται περισσοτερον κριμα
