< Luke 20 >

1 And it came about on one of those days, when he was teaching the people in the Temple and preaching the good news,
And it came to pass on one of the days (of those *k) when is teaching He the people in the temple and evangelising came up the (chief priests *NK+o) and the scribes with the elders
2 That the chief priests and the scribes and the rulers of the people came to him and said, Make clear to us by what authority you do these things and who gave you this authority.
and spoke saying to Him: do tell us by what authority these things You do or who is the [one] having given to You authority this?
3 And in answer he said to them, I will put a question to you, and do you give me an answer:
Answering now He said to them; Will ask you I myself also I myself also (one *k) thing, and do tell Me:
4 The baptism of John, was it from heaven or of men?
The baptism of John from heaven was it or from men?
5 And they said among themselves, If we say, From heaven; he will say, Why did you not have faith in him?
And they reasoned among themselves saying that If we shall say: From heaven, He will say; Because of why (therefore *K) not did you believe in him?
6 But if we say, Of men; we will be stoned by the people, for they are certain that John was a prophet.
If however we shall say; From men, the people (all *N+kO) will stone us; persuaded for they are John a prophet to be.
7 And they made answer that they had no idea where it came from.
And they answered not to know from where.
8 And Jesus said, And I will not make clear to you by what authority I do these things.
And Jesus said to them; Neither I myself tell you by what authority these things I am doing.
9 And he gave the people this story: A man made a vine-garden and gave the use of it to some field-workers and went into another country for a long time.
He began then to the people to speak parable this: A man (certain *NK) planted a vineyard and rented it to farmers and went abroad a time long.
10 And at the right time he sent a servant to the workers to get part of the fruit from the vines; but the workmen gave him blows and sent him away with nothing.
And (in *k) [in the] season he sent to the farmers a servant that from the fruit of the vineyard (they will give *N+kO) to him; But the farmers sent away him having beaten [him] empty-handed.
11 And he sent another servant, and they gave blows to him in the same way, and put shame on him, and sent him away with nothing.
And he proceeded another to send a servant; but him him having beaten and having dishonored they sent away empty-handed.
12 And he sent a third, and they gave him wounds and put him out.
And he proceeded a third to send; They then also him having wounded they cast out.
13 And the lord of the garden said, What am I to do? I will send my dearly loved son; they may give respect to him.
Said then the master of the vineyard; What shall I do? I will send the son of mine the beloved; perhaps him (having seen *K) they will respect.
14 But when the workmen saw him, they said to one another, This is he who will one day be the owner of the property: let us put him to death and the heritage will be ours.
Having seen now him the farmers were reasoning among (one another *N+kO) saying; This is the heir; (come *K) let us kill him so that ours may become the inheritance.
15 And driving him out of the garden they put him to death. Now what will the lord do to these workmen?
And having cast forth him outside the vineyard they killed [him]. What therefore will do to them the master of the vineyard?
16 He will come and put them to destruction and give the garden to others. And when he said this, they said, May it not be so.
He will come and he will destroy farmers these and will give the vineyard to others. Having heard [it] then they said; Never would it be!
17 But he, looking on them, said, Is it not in the Writings, The stone which the builders put on one side, the same has become the chief stone of the building?
But having looked at them He said; What then is that written this: [The] stone which rejected those building, this has become into [the] head of [the] corner’?
18 Everyone falling on that stone will be broken, but the man on whom the stone comes down will be crushed to dust.
Everyone falling on that [very] stone will be broken; on whomever but maybe it may fall, it will grind into powder him.
19 And the chief priests and the scribes made attempts to get their hands on him in that very hour; and they were in fear of the people, for they saw that he had made up this story against them.
And sought the scribes and the chief priests to lay on Him hands in that hour and they feared the people; they perceived for that against them He was speaking parable this.
20 And they kept watch on him, and sent out secret representatives, who were acting the part of good men, in order that they might get something from his words, on account of which they might give him up to the government and into the power of the ruler.
And having watched [Him] they sent spies feigning themselves righteous to be, that they may catch Him in talk, (in order *N+kO) to deliver Him to the rule and to the authority of the governor.
21 And they put a question to him, saying, Master, we are certain that your teaching and your words are right, and that you have no respect for a man's position, but you are teaching the true way of God:
And they questioned Him saying; Teacher, we know that rightly You speak and You teach and not You receive [any] person but on the basis of truth the way of God teach.
22 Is it right for us to make payment of taxes to Caesar or not?
Is it lawful (for us *N+kO) to Caesar tribute to give or not?
23 But he saw through their trick and said to them,
having perceived however of them the craftiness He said to them (why *KO) (me do you test; *K)
24 Let me see a penny. Whose image and name are on it? And they said, Caesar's.
(do show *N+kO) Me a denarius; Of whom has it [the] image and inscription? (Those *N+KO) And they said; Caesar’s.
25 And he said, Then give to Caesar the things which are Caesar's, and to God the things which are God's.
And He said (to *no) (them; *N+kO) Therefore do give back the [things] of Caesar to Caesar and the [things] of God to God.
26 And they were not able to get anything from these words before the people: but they were full of wonder at his answer, and said nothing.
And not they were able to catch Him in (His *NK+o) declaration before the people, and having marveled at the answer of Him they became silent.
27 And some of the Sadducees came to him, who say that there is no coming back from the dead; and they said to him,
Having approached then some of the Sadducees, the ones (denying *NK+o) a resurrection not being, they questioned Him
28 Master, Moses said that if a man's brother comes to his end, having a wife, but no children, his brother is to take the wife, and get a family for his brother.
saying; Teacher, Moses wrote to us: if anyone’s brother shall die having a wife and he childless (shall be, *N+KO) that shall take the brother of him the wife and shall raise up seed to the brother of him.
29 Now there were seven brothers, and the first had a wife and came to his end, having no children;
Seven therefore brothers there were; and the first having taken a wife died childless,
30 And the second;
and (took *K) the second (wife and this died childless *K)
31 And the third took her; and in the same way, all the seven, without having any children, came to their end.
and the third took her (likewise *o) likewise then also the seven not did leave children and died.
32 And last of all, the woman came to her end.
Finally (now of all *K) also the woman died.
33 When they come back from the dead, whose wife will she be? for all the seven had her.
(The woman *no) therefore in the resurrection, of which of them does she become wife? For the seven had her as wife.
34 And Jesus said to them, The sons of this world are married and have wives; (aiōn g165)
And (answering *k) said to them Jesus; The sons of the age this marry and (are given in marriage, *N+kO) (aiōn g165)
35 But those to whom is given the reward of the world to come, and to come back from the dead, have no wives, and are not married; (aiōn g165)
those however having been considered worthy of the age that [one] to obtain and of the resurrection from [the] dead neither marry nor (are given in marriage; *N+k+o) (aiōn g165)
36 And death has no more power over them, for they are equal to the angels, and are sons of God, being of those who will come back from the dead.
(neither *N+kO) for to die any more are they able, like [the] angels for they are, and sons they are of God of the resurrection sons being.
37 But even Moses made it clear that the dead come back to life, saying, in the story of the burning thorn-tree, The Lord, the God of Abraham, the God of Isaac, and the God of Jacob.
for however are raised the dead, even Moses showed at the bush when he names [the] Lord the God of Abraham and (the *k) God of Isaac and (the *k) God of Jacob.’
38 Now he is not the God of the dead but of the living: for all men are living to him.
God now not He is of [the] dead but of [the] living; all for to Him live.
39 And some of the scribes, in answer to this, said, Master, you have said well.
Answering now some of the scribes said; Teacher, well you have spoken.
40 And they had fear of putting any more questions to him.
no longer no longer (then *N+kO) were they daring to ask Him no [thing].
41 And he said to them, Why do they say that the Christ is the son of David?
He said then to them; How do they declare the Christ to be David's Son
42 For David himself says in the book of Psalms, The Lord said to my Lord, Take your seat at my right hand,
(and *ko) Himself (for *no) David says in [the] book of Psalms: Said (the *ko) Lord to the Lord of me; do sit at [the] right hand of Me
43 Till I put under your feet all those who are against you.
until when I may place the enemies of You [as] a footstool of the feet of You.
44 David then gives him the name of Lord, so how is it possible for him to be his son?
David therefore Lord Him calls, and how of him son is He?
45 And in the hearing of all the people he said to his disciples,
When are listening now all the people He said to the disciples of Him;
46 Keep away from the scribes, whose pleasure it is to go about in long robes, and to have words of respect said to them in the market-places, and to take the chief seats in the Synagogues and the first places at feasts;
do beware of the scribes who are desiring to walk in long robes and loving greetings in the marketplaces and first seats in the synagogues and first places in the banquets,
47 Who take the property of widows and before the eyes of men make long prayers; they will get a greater punishment.
who devour the houses of widows and as a pretext at great length pray; These will receive more excessive condemnation.
