< Luke 20 >

1 AND it came to pass, on one of those days, as he was teaching the people in the temple, and preaching the gospel, the chief priests and scribes with the elders came upon him,
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 and spake to him, saying, Tell us by what authority thou doest these things or who is he that giveth thee 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 Then he answering said to them, I also will ask you one question; and resolve me:
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 reasoned among themselves, saying, If we reply, From heaven; he will say, Wherefore then did ye not believe 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; all the people will stone us: for they are persuaded 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 answered, We know not from whence.
And they answered not to know from where.
8 And Jesus said to them, Neither tell I 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 Then he began to speak to the people this parable: A certain man planted a vineyard, and delivered it to husbandmen, and went abroad for a long while.
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 season he sent to the husbandmen a servant, that they might give him of the fruit of the vineyard: but the husbandmen beat, and sent him away empty.
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 again sent another servant: and him also they beat, and treating him with indignity, sent him away empty.
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 yet a third: and him they also wounded, and cast out.
And he proceeded a third to send; They then also him having wounded they cast out.
13 Then said the master of the vineyard, What shall I do? I will send my beloved son: probably when they see him, they will shew him respect.
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 husbandmen saw him, they reasoned among themselves, saying, This is the heir: come, let us kill him, that the inheritance may be our own.
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 So casting him out of the vineyard, they slew him. What then will the master of the vineyard do with these men?
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 destroy these husbandmen, and give the vineyard to others. And when they heard it, they said God forbid.
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 Then he looked on them, and said, What is this then which is written, The stone which the builders rejected, the same is become the head of the corner?
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 Every one who falleth upon this stone shall be broken to pieces; but on whomsoever it shall fall, it will grind him to powder.
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 sought to lay hands on him at that time; and were afraid of the people: for they knew that he had spoken this parable 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 watching him, they sent men they had suborned, who pretended that they were righteous persons, in order to lay hold of some word of his, that they might deliver him to the power and authority of the governor.
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 asked him, saying, Master, we know that thou speakest and teachest rightly, and respectest no man’s person, but teachest the way of God in truth:
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 lawful for us to pay tribute to Caesar, or not?
Is it lawful (for us *N+kO) to Caesar tribute to give or not?
23 Then he, aware of their crafty design, said unto them, Why tempt ye me?
having perceived however of them the craftiness He said to them (why *KO) (me do you test; *K)
24 Shew me a denarius. Whose image and inscription hath it? And they answering 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 Then said he to them, Pay therefore 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 unable to lay hold of a single expression of his before the people: and marvelling at his answer, they were silenced.
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 Then certain of the Sadducees, who contend that there is no resurrection, asked him,
Having approached then some of the Sadducees, the ones (denying *NK+o) a resurrection not being, they questioned Him
28 saying, Master, Moses wrote for us, If a man’s brother die, having a wife, and he die childless, that his brother should take the wife, and raise up seed 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 taking a wife, died childless.
Seven therefore brothers there were; and the first having taken a wife died childless,
30 And the second taking the wife, he also died childless.
and (took *K) the second (wife and this died childless *K)
31 Then the third took her; and also all the seven in like manner: and left no children, and died.
and the third took her (likewise *o) likewise then also the seven not did leave children and died.
32 And last of all died also the woman.
Finally (now of all *K) also the woman died.
33 In the resurrection therefore whose wife of them shall she be? for the seven had her to wife.
(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 in reply said to them, The children of this world marry, and are given in marriage: (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 they who are counted worthy to attain to that world, and the resurrection of the dead, neither marry, nor are given in marriage: (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 neither can they die any more: for they are like the angels; and are the children of God, being the children of the resurrection.
(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 Now that the dead are raised, even Moses intimated at the bush, when he called the Lord, “the God of Abraham, and 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 God is not the God of the dead, but of the living: for all live with him.
God now not He is of [the] dead but of [the] living; all for to Him live.
39 Then some of the scribes addressing him said, Master, admirably hast thou spoken!
Answering now some of the scribes said; Teacher, well you have spoken.
40 And after that they durst not put another question to him.
no longer no longer (then *N+kO) were they daring to ask Him no [thing].
41 Then he spake to them: How say they that the Messiah is the son of David?
He said then to them; How do they declare the Christ to be David's Son
42 Yet David himself, in the book of Psalms, saith, “The Lord said unto my Lord, Sit down 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 until I put thine enemies for a footstool of thy feet.”
until when I may place the enemies of You [as] a footstool of the feet of You.
44 David then calleth him Lord, and how then is he his son?
David therefore Lord Him calls, and how of him son is He?
45 And whilst all the people were hearkening, he said to his disciples,
When are listening now all the people He said to the disciples of Him;
46 Beware of the scribes, who desire to walk about in trailing robes, and love salutations in the public places, and the principal seats in the synagogues, and the most honourable couch at suppers;
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 devour the houses of widows, and for a pretext make long prayers: these shall receive a more abundant punishment.
who devour the houses of widows and as a pretext at great length pray; These will receive more excessive condemnation.
