Mark 12
1 Then Jesus began to speak to them using illustrated stories. “Once there was a man who planted a vineyard. He put a fence around it, dug a pit for a winepress, and built a watchtower. Then he leased it to some farmers, and left on a journey.
ⲁ̅ⲁⲩⲱ ⲁϥⲁⲣⲭⲉⲓ ⲛ̅ϫⲟⲟⲥ ⲛⲁⲩ ϩⲛ̅ϩⲉⲛⲡⲁⲣⲁⲃⲟⲗⲏ ϫⲉ ⲟⲩⲣⲱⲙⲉ ⲡⲉ ⲛ̅ⲧⲁϥⲧⲱϭⲉ ⲛ̅ⲟⲩⲙⲁ ⲛⲉⲗⲟⲟⲗⲉ. ⲁϥⲕⲧⲟ ⲉⲣⲟϥ ⲛ̅ⲟⲩϫⲟ ⲁϥϣⲁⲕⲧⲟⲩⲉⲓⲟⲙ ϩⲣⲁⲓ̈ ⲛ̅ϩⲏⲧϥ̅. ⲁⲩⲱ ⲁϥⲕⲱⲧ ⲛ̅ⲟⲩⲡⲩⲣⲅⲟⲥ ⲁϥⲧⲁⲁϥ ⲉⲧⲟⲟⲧⲟⲩ ⲛ̅ϩⲉⲛϭⲙⲏⲟⲩ ⲁϥⲁⲡⲟⲇⲏⲙⲉⲓ
2 When harvest-time came, he sent one of his servants to the tenant farmers to collect some of the grapes from the vineyard.
ⲃ̅ⲁⲩⲱ ⲁϥϫⲉⲩⲟⲩϩⲙ̅ϩⲁⲗ ⲉⲣⲁⲧⲟⲩ ⲛ̅ⲛⲉϭⲙⲏⲟⲩ ϩⲙ̅ⲡⲕⲁⲓⲣⲟⲥ ⲛⲛ̅ⲕⲁⲣⲡⲟⲥ ϫⲉ ⲉϥⲉϫⲓ ⲛ̅ⲧⲟⲟⲧⲟⲩ ⲛ̅ⲛⲉϭⲙⲏⲟⲩ ⲉⲃⲟⲗ ϩⲙ̅ⲛ̅ⲕⲁⲣⲡⲟⲥ ⲙ̅ⲡⲙⲁ ⲛⲉⲗⲟⲟⲗⲉ.
3 But they grabbed hold of him, beat him up, and sent him away with nothing.
ⲅ̅ⲁⲩⲱ ⲛ̅ⲧⲉⲣⲟⲩⲁⲙⲁϩⲧⲉ ⲙ̅ⲙⲟϥ ⲁⲩϩⲓⲟⲩⲉ ⲉⲣⲟϥ ⲁⲩϫⲟⲟⲩϥ ⲉⲙⲡⲟⲩϯⲗⲁⲁⲩ ⲛⲁϥ.
4 So the man sent another servant. They hit him over the head and abused him.
ⲇ̅ⲁϥϫⲉⲩⲕⲉϩⲙ̅ϩⲁⲗ ⲟⲛ ⲉⲣⲁⲧⲟⲩ. ⲡⲕⲉⲟⲩⲁ ⲉⲧⲙ̅ⲙⲁⲩ ⲁⲩⲙⲟⲟⲩⲧϥ̅. ⲁⲩⲱ ⲁⲩⲥⲟϣϥ̅.
5 He sent another servant, and this one they killed. He sent many other servants, and they beat some of them and killed others.
ⲉ̅ⲁϥϫⲉⲩⲕⲉⲟⲩⲁ. ⲁⲩⲱ ⲡⲕⲉⲧ ⲁⲩⲙⲟⲟⲩⲧϥ̅. ⲙⲛ̅ϩⲉⲛⲕⲟⲟⲩⲉ ⲧⲏⲣⲟⲩ ϩⲟⲓ̈ⲛⲉ ⲙⲉⲛ ⲉⲩϩⲓⲟⲩⲉ ⲉⲣⲟⲟⲩ. ϩⲉⲛⲕⲟⲟⲩⲉ ⲇⲉ ⲉⲩⲙⲟⲟⲩⲧ ⲙ̅ⲙⲟⲟⲩ.
6 In the end the only one left was his son whom he loved, and eventually he sent him, thinking ‘they will respect my son.’
ⲋ̅ⲉⲧⲓ ⲛⲉⲩⲛ̅ⲧϥ̅ⲟⲩϣⲏⲣⲉ ⲙ̅ⲙⲁⲩ ⲙ̅ⲙⲉⲣⲓⲧ ⲁϥϫⲟⲟⲩϥ ⲉⲣⲁⲧⲟⲩ. ⲙⲛ̅ⲛ̅ⲥⲱⲟⲩ ⲉϥϫⲱ ⲙ̅ⲙⲟⲥ ϫⲉ ⲥⲉⲛⲁϣⲓⲡⲉ ϩⲏⲧϥ̅ ⲙ̅ⲡⲁϣⲏⲣⲉ.
7 But the farmers said to themselves, ‘Here's the owner's heir—if we kill him, we can get what he would have inherited!’
ⲍ̅ⲛⲉϭⲙⲏⲩ ⲇⲉ ⲉⲧⲙ̅ⲙⲁⲩ ⲁⲩϣⲁϫⲉ ⲛⲙ̅ⲛⲉⲩⲉⲣⲏⲩ ⲉⲩϫⲱ ⲙ̅ⲙⲟⲥ ϫⲉ ⲡⲁⲓ̈ ⲡⲉ ⲡⲉⲕⲗⲏⲣⲟⲛⲟⲙⲟⲥ. ⲁⲙⲏⲓ̈ⲧⲛ̅ ⲛ̅ⲧⲛ̅ⲙⲟⲟⲩⲧϥ̅. ⲁⲩⲱ ⲧⲉⲕⲗⲏⲣⲟⲛⲟⲙⲓⲁ ⲛⲁⲣⲧⲱⲛ.
8 So they took him and killed him, and threw him out of the vineyard.
ⲏ̅ⲛ̅ⲧⲉⲣⲟⲩⲁⲙⲁϩⲧⲉ ⲇⲉ ⲙ̅ⲙⲟϥ ⲁⲩⲙⲟⲟⲩⲧϥ̅ ⲁⲩⲱ ⲁⲩⲛⲟϫϥ̅ ⲉⲡⲃⲟⲗ ⲙ̅ⲡⲙⲁ ⲛⲉⲗⲟⲟⲗⲉ.
9 Now what is the owner of the vineyard going to do? He will come and kill those farmers, and then he will lease the vineyard to others.

10 Haven't you even read this Scripture: ‘The stone rejected by the builders has become the chief cornerstone.
ⲓ̅ⲧⲉⲓ̈ⲅⲣⲁⲫⲏ ⲇⲉ ⲟⲛ ⲙ̅ⲡⲉⲧⲛ̅ⲟϣⲥ̅. ϫⲉ ⲡⲱⲛⲉ ⲛ̅ⲧⲁⲛⲉⲧⲕⲱⲧ ⲥⲧⲟϥ ⲉⲃⲟⲗ ⲁϥϣⲱⲡⲉ ⲉⲩⲁⲡⲉ ⲛ̅ⲕⲟⲟϩ.
11 This is from the Lord, and it's marvelous to see!’?”

12 The Jewish leaders tried to have him arrested because they realized that the illustration was directed at them, but they were afraid of the crowd. So they left him alone and went away.
ⲓ̅ⲃ̅ⲁⲩⲟⲩⲱϣ ⲇⲉ ⲉⲁⲙⲁϩⲧⲉ ⲙ̅ⲙⲟϥ ⲁⲩⲱ ⲁⲩⲣ̅ϩⲟⲧⲉ ϩⲏⲧϥ̅ ⲙ̅ⲡⲙⲏⲏϣⲉ. ⲁⲩⲉⲓⲙⲉ ⲅⲁⲣ ϫⲉ ⲛ̅ⲧⲁϥϫⲉⲧⲉⲓ̈ⲡⲁⲣⲁⲃⲟⲗⲏ ⲉⲧⲃⲏⲏⲧⲟⲩ. ⲁⲩⲱ ⲛ̅ⲧⲉⲣⲟⲩⲕⲁⲁϥ ⲁⲩⲃⲱⲕ
13 Later they sent some Pharisees with some of Herod's supporters to Jesus in an attempt to catch him out by what he said.
ⲓ̅ⲅ̅ⲁⲩⲱ ⲁⲩϫⲉⲩϩⲟⲓ̈ⲛⲉ ⲉⲣⲁⲧϥ̅ ⲛ̅ϭⲓⲛⲉⲫⲁⲣⲓⲥⲁⲓⲟⲥ ⲙⲛ̅ⲛ̅ϩⲏⲣⲱⲇⲓⲁⲛⲟⲥ ⲉⲧⲣⲉⲩϭⲟⲡϥ̅ ϩⲛ̅ⲟⲩϣⲁϫⲉ.
14 They arrived and said, “Teacher, we know you are a truthful person and you don't look for approval, because you don't care about status or position. Instead you teach God's way in accordance with the truth. So is it right to pay tribute to Caesar or not?
ⲓ̅ⲇ̅ⲁⲩⲱ ⲛ̅ⲧⲉⲣⲟⲩϯⲡⲉⲩⲟⲩⲟⲉ͡ⲓ ⲉⲣⲟϥ ⲡⲉϫⲁⲩ ⲛⲁϥ ϫⲉ ⲡⲥⲁϩ ⲧⲛ̅ⲥⲟⲟⲩⲛ̅ ϫⲉ ⲛ̅ⲧⲕ̅ⲟⲩⲣⲙ̅ ⲙ̅ⲙⲉ ⲁⲩⲱ ⲛⲅ̅ϩⲏϭⲉ ⲁⲛ ϩⲏⲧϥ̅ ⲗ̅ⲗⲁⲁⲩ ⲛⲅ̅ϫⲓϩⲟ ⲅⲁⲣ ⲁⲛ ⲣ̅ⲣⲱⲙⲉ ⲁⲗⲗⲁ ϩⲛ̅ⲟⲩⲙⲉ ⲉⲕϯⲥⲃⲱ ⲛ̅ⲧⲉϩⲓⲏ ⲙ̅ⲡⲛⲟⲩⲧⲉ ⲉⲝⲉⲥⲧⲓ ⲉϯⲕⲏⲛⲥⲟⲥ ⲙ̅ⲡⲣ̅ⲣⲟ ϫⲛ̅ⲙ̅ⲙⲟⲛ ⲧⲁⲣⲛ̅ϯ ϫⲛ̅ⲙ̅ⲡⲱⲣ.
15 Should we pay up, or should we refuse?” Jesus, realizing how hypocritical they were, asked them, “Why are you trying to catch me out? Bring me a coin to look at.”
ⲓ̅ⲉ̅ⲛ̅ⲧⲟϥ ⲇⲉ ⲉϥⲥⲟⲟⲩⲛ ⲛ̅ⲧⲉⲩϩⲩⲡⲟⲕⲣⲓⲥⲓⲥ ⲡⲉϫⲁϥ ⲛⲁⲩ ϫⲉ ⲉⲧⲃⲉⲟⲩ ⲧⲉⲧⲛ̅ⲡⲓⲣⲁⲍⲉ ⲙ̅ⲙⲟⲓ̈ ⲁⲛⲓⲟⲩⲥⲁⲧⲉⲉⲣⲉ ⲛⲁⲓ̈ ϫⲉ ⲉⲓ̈ⲉⲛⲁⲩ ⲉⲣⲟⲥ.
16 They gave him a coin. “Whose is this image, and whose inscription?” Jesus asked them. “Caesar's,” they replied.
ⲓ̅ⲋ̅ⲛ̅ⲧⲟⲟⲩ ⲇⲉ ⲥⲟⲩⲧⲱⲛⲥ ⲉⲣⲟϥ ⲁⲩⲱ ⲡⲉϫⲁϥ ⲛⲁⲩ ϫⲉ ⲧⲁⲛⲓⲙ ⲧⲉ ⲧⲉⲉⲓϩⲓⲕⲱⲛ ⲛⲙ̅ⲛⲉⲓ̈ⲥϩⲁⲓ̈. ⲛ̅ⲧⲟⲟⲩ ⲇⲉ ⲡⲉϫⲁⲩ ⲛⲁϥ ϫⲉ ⲧⲁⲡⲣ̅ⲣⲟ ⲧⲉ.
17 “Then give back to Caesar what belongs to him, and give back to God what belongs to him,” Jesus told them. They were amazed at his reply.
ⲓ̅ⲍ̅ⲓ̅ⲥ̅ ⲇⲉ ⲡⲉϫⲁϥ ⲛⲁⲩ ϫⲉ ϯⲛⲁⲡⲣ̅ⲣⲟ ϭⲉ ⲙ̅ⲡⲣ̅ⲣⲟ ⲁⲩⲱ ⲛⲁⲡⲛⲟⲩⲧⲉ ⲙ̅ⲡⲛⲟⲩⲧⲉ. ⲁⲩⲱ ⲁⲩⲣ̅ϣⲡⲏⲣⲉ ⲙ̅ⲙⲟϥ.
18 Then the Sadducees, who deny the resurrection, came and asked a question:
ⲓ̅ⲏ̅ⲁⲩⲉ͡ⲓ ⲇⲉ ϣⲁⲣⲟϥ ⲛ̅ϭⲓⲛ̅ⲥⲁⲇⲇⲟⲩⲕⲁⲓⲟⲥ ⲛⲉⲧϫⲱ ⲙ̅ⲙⲟⲥ ϫⲉ ⲙ̅ⲙⲛ̅ⲁⲛⲁⲥⲧⲁⲥⲓⲥ ⲛⲁϣⲱⲡⲉ. ⲁⲩⲱ ⲁⲩϫⲛⲟⲩϥ ⲉⲩϫⲱ ⲙ̅ⲙⲟⲥ
19 “Teacher, Moses instructed us that if a man dies, leaving his widow childless, then his brother should marry his wife, and have children by her on his behalf.
ⲓ̅ⲑ̅ϫⲉ ⲡⲥⲁϩ ⲙⲱⲩ̈ⲥⲏⲥ ⲁϥⲥϩⲁⲓ̈ ⲛⲁⲛ ϫⲉ ⲉϣⲱⲡⲉ ⲉⲣϣⲁⲛⲡⲥⲟⲛ ⲟⲩⲁ ⲙⲟⲩ ⲁⲩⲱ ⲛϥ̅ⲕⲁⲧⲉϥⲥϩⲓⲙⲉ ⲛϥ̅ⲧⲙ̅ⲕⲁϣⲏⲣⲉ ⲇⲉ ⲉⲣⲉⲡⲉϥⲥⲟⲛ ϫⲓⲧⲉϥⲥϩⲓⲙⲉ ⲛ̅ϥⲧⲟⲩⲛⲟⲥⲥⲡⲉⲣⲙⲁ ⲙ̅ⲡⲉϥⲥⲟⲛ.
20 Once there were seven brothers. The first one got married, and then died without having children.

21 The second married his widow, and then died, childless. The third did the same.

22 In fact all seven died without having children. In the end the woman died too.

24 Jesus told them, “This proves you're mistaken, and that you don't know the Scriptures or the power of God.

25 When the dead rise, they don't marry, and aren't given in marriage. They're like the angels in heaven.

26 But concerning the resurrection, haven't you read in Moses' writings the story of the burning bush, where God spoke to Moses and told him, ‘I am the God of Abraham, and the God of Isaac, and the God of Jacob?’

28 One of the religious teachers came and heard them arguing. He recognized that Jesus had given them a good answer. So he asked him, “Which is the most important commandment of all?”
ⲕ̅ⲏ̅ⲁⲩⲱ ⲛ̅ⲧⲉⲣⲉϥϯⲡⲉϥⲟⲩⲟⲓ̈ ⲉϩⲟⲩⲛ ⲉⲣⲟϥ ⲛ̅ϭⲓⲟⲩⲁ ⲛ̅ⲛⲉⲅⲣⲁⲙⲙⲁⲧⲉⲩⲥ ⲉⲁϥⲥⲱⲧⲙ̅ ⲉⲣⲟⲟⲩ ⲉⲩϯⲧⲱⲛ ⲉϥⲥⲟⲟⲩⲛ ϫⲉ ⲁϥⲣ̅ⲟⲩⲱ ⲛⲁⲩ ⲕⲁⲗⲱⲥ. ⲁϥϫⲛⲟⲩϥ ϫⲉ ⲁϣ ⲧⲉ ⲧϣⲟⲣⲡ̅ ⲛ̅ⲉⲛⲧⲟⲗⲏ ⲉⲣⲟⲟⲩ ⲧⲏⲣⲟⲩ.
29 Jesus replied, “The first commandment is, ‘Hear, Israel, the Lord our God is one.

31 The second is ‘Love your neighbor as yourself.’ There's no more important commandment than these.”

32 “That's right, Teacher,” the man replied. “It's true as you said that God is one, and there is no other.

33 We are to love him with all our heart, all our understanding, and all our strength, and we are to love our neighbor as ourselves. This is far more important than offerings and sacrifices.”

34 Jesus saw that he gave a thoughtful answer, and said, “You're not far from the kingdom of God.” After this no one was brave enough to ask him any more questions.

35 While Jesus was teaching in the Temple, he asked, “Why do the religious teachers state that Christ is the son of David?

38 Jesus continued to teach them, saying, “Beware of religious leaders! They love to walk around in long robes, to be greeted respectfully in the marketplaces.

40 They cheat widows out of what they own, and cover up the kind of people they really are with long-winded prayers. They will receive severe condemnation in the judgment.”
