< Luke 20 >

1 It happened on one of those days, as he was teaching the people in the temple and preaching the gospel, that the chief priests and scribes came to him with the elders.
Jun qꞌijal are tajin kuya kꞌutuꞌn ri Jesús pa ri Templo chirij ri utz laj taq tzij, xeqet rukꞌ ri kꞌamal taq bꞌe ke ri e chꞌawenelabꞌ cho ri Dios pa kiwiꞌ ri winaq, ri aꞌjtijabꞌ xuqujeꞌ ri e kꞌamal taq bꞌe.
2 They asked him, "Tell us: by what authority do you do these things? Or who is giving you this authority?"
Xkibꞌij che: ¿Jachin at taqowinaq chubꞌanik waꞌ we riꞌ? ¿Jachin yoꞌwinaq kwinem chawe?
3 He answered them, "I also will ask you one question. Tell me:
Ri Jesús xubꞌij chike: Ri in xuqujeꞌ kinbꞌan jun kꞌotbꞌal chiꞌ chiꞌwe, chibꞌij chwe:
4 the baptism of John, was it from heaven, or from man?"
Ri qasanaꞌ ri xubꞌan ri Juan ¿la jun taqanik rech achi o rech ri Dios?
5 They reasoned with themselves, saying, "If we say, 'From heaven,' he will say, 'Why did you not believe him?'
Xkitzijobꞌej kꞌu rij, xkibꞌij kꞌut: We kaqabꞌij chi rech ri Dios, ¿jas kꞌu che man xikoj taj, kacha laꞌ chaqe?
6 But if we say, 'From man,' all the people will stone us, for they are persuaded that John was a prophet."
We kꞌu kaqabꞌij chi rech achi, kujkibꞌan che abꞌaj laꞌ le winaq, rumal ketaꞌm chi ri Juan are jun qꞌalajisal utzij ri Dios.
7 They answered that they did not know where it was from.
Xaq jeriꞌ xeꞌkibꞌij che: Man qetaꞌm taj jawjeꞌ upetik wi.
8 Jesus said to them, "Neither will I tell you by what authority I do these things."
Xubꞌij kꞌu ri Jesús chike: Man kinbꞌij ta xuqujeꞌ in jachin yoꞌwinaq kwinem chwe chubꞌanik wa we jastaq riꞌ.
9 He began to tell the people this parable. "A man planted a vineyard, and rented it out to some farmers, and went on a journey for a long time.
Ri Jesús xutzijoj we jun kꞌambꞌejabꞌal noꞌj chike ri winaq: Kꞌo jun achi xutik uvas pa jun ulew, xuya kꞌu kan ri ulew pa qajik chike nikꞌaj winaq rumal xeꞌ pa jun naj laj utaqkil.
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.
Are kꞌu xuriq ri qꞌotaj rech yakoj, xutaq bꞌik jun rajchak kukꞌ ri ajtikolobꞌ rech kuta rech ri xwachinik. Are kꞌu ri ajtikolobꞌ xkichꞌayo, kꞌa te riꞌ xkitaq bꞌik cho rachoch, maj jas xkiya bꞌik che.
11 He sent yet another servant, and they also beat him, and treated him shamefully, and sent him away empty.
Ri ajchoqꞌe ri ulew xutaq chi bꞌik jun ajchak kukꞌ xkichꞌey xuqujeꞌ loq, xuqujeꞌ maj xkiya loq che.
12 He sent yet a third, and they also wounded him, and threw him out.
Xutaq chi kꞌu bꞌik jun urox ajchak kukꞌ, xkesaj kꞌu loq pa ri ulew, xkibꞌan loq kꞌax che.
13 The lord of the vineyard said, 'What am I to do? I will send my beloved son. It may be that they will respect him.'
Are kꞌu ri ajchoqꞌe ri ulew xubꞌij: “¿Jas ta kꞌu kinbꞌano? Kintaq na bꞌik ri nukꞌojol, kakinimaj waꞌ areꞌ.”
14 "But when the farmers saw him, they reasoned among themselves, saying, 'This is the heir. Let us kill him, that the inheritance may be ours.'
Ri ajchakibꞌ are xkilo, xkitzijobꞌej rij, xkibꞌij: “Are waꞌ kechꞌabꞌen kan ri ulew, qakamisaj” xechaꞌ, “rech keqechabꞌej kan le ulew.”
15 They threw him out of the vineyard, and killed him. What therefore will the lord of the vineyard do to them?
Xaq jeriꞌ xkesaj loq pa ri ulew kꞌa te riꞌ xkikamisaj. ¿Jas kubꞌan ri ajchoqꞌe ri ulew chike we ajchakibꞌ riꞌ?
16 He will come and destroy these farmers, and will give the vineyard to others." When they heard it, they said, "May it never be."
Kukꞌis pa kiwiꞌ ri ajchakibꞌ are katzalij loq, kꞌa te riꞌ kuya chi kan ri ulew chike nikꞌaj winaq chik. Are xkita ri winaq xkibꞌij: Kꞌo ta bꞌa ne wi mat karaj ri Dios.
17 But he looked at them, and said, "Then what is this that is written, 'The stone which the builders rejected, the same was made the chief cornerstone?'
Ri Jesús ko xuꞌkaꞌyej ri winaq, xubꞌij: ¿Jas kꞌu kel waꞌ ri tzꞌibꞌatalik ri kubꞌij: Ri abꞌaj ri xketzelaj uwach ri e yakol taq ja, xux na ri abꞌaj ri qas kꞌo kutayij chikiwach ri nikꞌaj abꞌaj chik?
18 Everyone who falls on that stone will be broken to pieces; but on whomever it falls, it will crush him."
Xapachin ri katzaq puꞌwiꞌ ri abꞌaj riꞌ kamuchuꞌlitajik, xuqujeꞌ kajaqꞌin ri winaq we katzaq we abꞌaj riꞌ chirij.
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.
Are xkinabꞌej ri aꞌjtijabꞌ rech ri taqanik xuqujeꞌ ri e kꞌamal taq bꞌe ke ri chꞌawenelabꞌ cho ri Dios chi aꞌreꞌ xtzijox kij pa ri kꞌambꞌejabꞌal noꞌj, xkaj xkiqꞌat tzij puꞌwiꞌ ri Jesús, xkixiꞌj kꞌu kibꞌ chikiwach ri winaq rech ri tinimit.
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.
Xaq jeriꞌ xeꞌkitaq bꞌik winaq ri kakijaluj chi nimaꞌq kibꞌanik, rech kakikoj jun kꞌambꞌejabꞌal pa ubꞌe ri Jesús rech rukꞌ riꞌ kekwinik kakikꞌam bꞌik cho ri qꞌatal tzij.
21 They asked him, "Teacher, we know that you say and teach what is right, and are not partial to anyone, but truly teach the way of God.
Ri winaq ri xetaq bꞌik xkibꞌij: Ajtij, qetaꞌm chi sukꞌ ronojel ri kabꞌij la, xuqujeꞌ ri kakꞌut la xuqujeꞌ man kaqꞌat ta la tzij pa kiwiꞌ ri winaq rumal ri kekaꞌyik, xane qas are wi kakꞌut la ri bꞌe rukꞌ ri Dios.
22 Is it lawful for us to pay taxes to Caesar, or not?"
¿La yaꞌtal chaqe kaqatoj alkabal che ri César o man yaꞌtal taj?
23 But he perceived their craftiness, and said to them,
Ri Jesús kꞌut xuchꞌobꞌ ri itzel taq kichomabꞌal, rumal riꞌ xubꞌij chike:
24 "Show me a denarius. Whose image and inscription are on it?" They answered, "Caesar's."
Chikꞌutumpe jun pwaq kech ri aꞌj Roma chinuwach. ¿Jachin ajchoqꞌe we palajaj xuqujeꞌ we tzꞌibꞌ we kꞌo choch? Rech ri César, xecha ri winaq.
25 He said to them, "Then give to Caesar the things that are Caesar's, and to God the things that are God's."
Ri Jesús xubꞌij chike: Chiya che ri César ri rech ri César, xuqujeꞌ chiya che ri Dios ri rech ri Dios.
26 They weren't able to trap him in his words before the people. And amazed at his answer, they fell silent.
Man xekwin ta kꞌut xkikoj kꞌaꞌmabꞌal pa ri ubꞌe, rukꞌ ri kubꞌij chike ri winaq, xemayijanik are xkita ri tzalibꞌal uwach ri xubꞌij chike, xaq jeriꞌ maj chi jas xkibꞌij.
27 Some of the Sadducees came to him, those who deny that there is a resurrection.
Are kꞌu ri e saduceos, ri kakibꞌij chi maj kꞌastajibꞌal wach, xeqet chuxukut ri Jesús, xkibꞌij we kꞌulmatajik che:
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.
Ajtij, ri Moisés kukꞌut chiqawach pa ri wuj ri xutzꞌibꞌaj chi we kakam jun achi, maj kan ralkꞌwaꞌl rukꞌ ri rixoqil, choqꞌaqꞌ wi chi ri rachalal we achi riꞌ kakꞌuliꞌ rukꞌ ri ixoq ri xya kanoq rech kekꞌojiꞌ rijaꞌl ri rachalal ri xkamik.
29 There were therefore seven brothers. The first took a wife, and died childless.
E kꞌo kꞌu e wuqubꞌ achyabꞌ alaxik. Ri nabꞌe xkꞌuliꞌk, xa kꞌu e maj ralkꞌwaꞌl xekꞌojiꞌ kan rukꞌ ri rixoqil.
30 The second and
Ri ukabꞌ xkꞌuliꞌ rukꞌ ri rixoqil ri rachalal, xuqujeꞌ maj e ralkꞌwaꞌl xekꞌojiꞌ kan rukꞌ ri ixoq
31 the third took her, and likewise the seven all left no children, and died.
Ri urox achi xuqujeꞌ xkꞌuliꞌ rukꞌ ri malkaꞌn ixoq maj xuqujeꞌ ralkꞌwaꞌl xekꞌojiꞌ rukꞌ, jeriꞌ xkibꞌan ri e wuqubꞌ alaxik. Konojel xekꞌuliꞌ rukꞌ ri ixoq, xa kꞌu maj kalkꞌwaꞌl xekꞌojiꞌ kan rukꞌ ri ixoq.
32 Afterward the woman also died.
Kꞌisbꞌal kꞌu rech, xkam xuqujeꞌ ri ixoq.
33 Therefore in the resurrection whose wife of them will she be? For the seven had her as a wife."
Are kꞌu kuriq ri qꞌij rech kꞌastajibꞌal ¿jachin chike ri e wuqubꞌ alaxik karachajilaj na ri ixoq, rumal chi konojel ri e wuqubꞌ achyabꞌ xekꞌuliꞌ rukꞌ?
34 Jesus said to them, "The people of this age marry and are given to someone to marry. (aiōn g165)
Ri Jesús xubꞌij chike: Ri winaq rech ri uwachulew kekꞌuliꞌ xuqujeꞌ kakiya kibꞌ pa taq kꞌulanem. (aiōn g165)
35 But those who are regarded as worthy of a place in that age and the resurrection from the dead neither marry nor are given to someone to marry. (aiōn g165)
Are kꞌu ri yaꞌtal chike kekꞌastaj na rech kekꞌojiꞌ pa ri jun alik kꞌaslemal ri kape na, ri winaq riꞌ man kekꞌuliꞌ taj xuqujeꞌ man keya taj pa kꞌulanem. (aiōn g165)
36 For they cannot die any more, for they are like the angels, and are children of God, being children of the resurrection.
Man kekam taj xuqujeꞌ je kuꞌx na jetaq ri angelibꞌ, e ralkꞌwaꞌl ri Dios rumal yaꞌtal bꞌe chike kekꞌastaj na, jun qꞌijal.
37 But that the dead are raised, even Moses showed at the bush, when he called the Lord 'The God of Abraham, and the God of Isaac, and the God of Jacob.'
Pa ri uwuj ri Moisés jawjeꞌ ri xkꞌut wi choch ri kꞌix ri kajinow pa qꞌaqꞌ, kuqꞌalajisaj chi ri e kaminaqibꞌ kekꞌastaj na, rumal kubꞌij che ri Ajawxel, chi are kiDios ri Abraham, ri Isaac xuqujeꞌ ri Jacob.
38 Now he is not the God of the dead, but of the living, for all are alive to him."
Ri Dios man kiDios ta kaminaqibꞌ, xane kiDios e kꞌaslik winaq, konojel e kꞌaslik cho areꞌ.
39 Some of the scribes answered, "Teacher, you speak well."
E jujun kꞌut chike ri aꞌjtijabꞌ rech ri taqanik xkibꞌij che ri Jesús: Sibꞌalaj utz ri xbꞌij la ajtij.
40 They did not dare to ask him any more questions.
Maj chi kꞌu jun xkꞌotow uchiꞌ ri Jesús.
41 He said to them, "Why do they say that the Messiah is David's son?
Ri Jesús kꞌut xukꞌot kichiꞌ ri winaq xubꞌij: ¿Jas che kibꞌij chi ri Cristo Ralkꞌwaꞌl ri David?
42 David himself says in the scroll of Psalms, 'The Lord said to my Lord, "Sit at my right hand,
Are ri David xtzꞌibꞌan pa ri wuj rech Salmos: Ri Dios xubꞌij che ri wAjaw: Chattꞌuyul pa ri nuwiqiqꞌabꞌ.
43 until I make your enemies the footstool of your feet."'
Kꞌa katchꞌeken na chike ri akꞌulel xuqujeꞌ kekꞌojiꞌ na xeꞌ raqan aqꞌabꞌ.
44 "David therefore calls him Lord, so how is he his son?"
We ri David kubꞌij wAjaw che, ¿jas kꞌu che riꞌ kubꞌij ukꞌojol che?
45 In the hearing of all the people, he said to his disciples,
Are tajin katatabꞌex ri Jesús kumal ri winaq, xubꞌij chike ri utijoxelabꞌ:
46 "Beware of the 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;
Chichajij iwibꞌ chike ri aꞌjtijabꞌ rech ri taqanik. Ri aꞌre utz kakinaꞌo kewaꞌkat rukꞌ ri katzꞌyaq ri sibꞌalaj kachuplinik, xuqujeꞌ sibꞌalaj jeꞌl chike kaya rutzil kiwach pa taq ri kꞌayibꞌal, xuqujeꞌ kakichaꞌ ri jeꞌl laj taq kꞌolibꞌal pa taq ri Sinagoga, xuqujeꞌ kakichaꞌ ri jeꞌl laj taq kꞌolibꞌal pa taq ri nimaqꞌij.
47 who devour widows' houses, and for a pretense make long prayers: these will receive greater condemnation."
Utz xuqujeꞌ kakinaꞌo kakimaj ri e kachoch xuqujeꞌ ri kimebꞌail ri e malkaꞌnibꞌ, kakibꞌan xuqujeꞌ naj taq chꞌawem rech ketatabꞌex kumal nikꞌaj winaq chik rumal riꞌ nim kꞌax kape na pa kiwiꞌ.
