Luke 20
1 On one of those days, as he was teaching the people in the temple and preaching the Good News, the priests and Torah-Teachers came to him with the elders.
KADEKADEO eu ran ni a kotin kawewe ong aramas akan nan im en kaudok o, o padaki rongamau, samero lapalap, o saunkawewe, iangaki saumas akan ap ko dong i.
2 They asked him, “Tell us: by what authority do you do these things? Or who is giving you this authority?”
Potoan ong i indada: Masani ong kit, manaman en is, me komui wiaki mepukat? De is me ki ong komui manaman wet?
3 He answered them, “I also will ask you one question. Tell me:
A kotin sapeng masani ong irail: I pil pan kalelapok meakot re omail, komail en sapeng ia!
4 the baptism of John [Yah is gracious], was it from heaven, or from men?”
En Ioanes a paptais men nanlang, de me ren aramas?
5 They reasoned with themselves, saying, “If we say, ‘From heaven,’ he will say, ‘Why didn’t you believe him?’
Irail ap lamelame nan pung arail indada: Ma kitail pan inda, men nanlang, a pan masani ong kitail: Da me komail so posonki i?
6 But if we say, ‘From men,’ all the people will stone us, for they are persuaded that John [Yah is gracious] was a prophet.”
A ma kitail inda, me ren aramas, aramas karos ap pan kate kit, pwe re kin wia saukopki Ioanes.
7 They answered that they didn’t know where it was from.
Irail ari sapeng, me re sasa, wasa me a kosang ia.
8 Yeshua [Salvation] said to them, “Neither will I tell you by what authority I do these things.”
Iesus ap kotin masani ong irail: Ari, I pil sota pan indai ong komail, manaman en is, me I wiaki mepukat.
9 He began to tell the people this parable. “A man planted a vineyard, and rented it out to some farmers, and went into another country for a long time.
A ap kotin tapiada masani ong pokon o karaseras wet: Aramas amen padukedier mat en wain eu, ap liki ong saumat akai, o kokola nan wai ansau warai.
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.
A lao ansau, a kadaralang saumat akan ladu men, pwe ren ki ong kisan wan wain. A saumat akan woki i, o kadarala i kaip.
11 He sent yet another servant, and they also beat him, and treated him shamefully, and sent him away empty.
A murin met a pil kadarala amen ladu, a re pil woki i, o wia suedi ong, o kadarala i kaip.
12 He sent yet a third, and they also wounded him, and threw him out.
A murin met a kadarala kasilimen. A re pil kame i o siken wei sang.
13 The lord of the vineyard said, ‘What shall I do? I will send my agapetos ·beloved, esteemed· son. It may be that seeing him, they will respect him.’
Monsap en mat en wain o ap masani: Da me i en wiada? I pan kadarala nai ol kompok, ele re pan masak, ni ar pan kilang i.
14 “But when the farmers saw him, they reasoned among themselves, saying, ‘This is the heir. Come, let’s kill him, that the inheritance may be ours.’
A saumat akan lao kilanger i, rap lamelame nan pung ar indada: Iei i, me pan ale soso, kitail pan kamela, pwen id aneki a soso.
15 They threw him out of the vineyard, and killed him. What therefore will the lord of the vineyard do to them?
Irail lao kasapoka sang i nan matuel o, ap kamela i. Da me monsap en mat en wain pan wiai ong irail?
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!”
A pan kodo kamela saumat pukat, ap liki ong akai a mat en wain. Irail lao ronger mepukat, rap indada: O mepukat sota pan wiaui!
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'?
A kotin saupei wong irail ap kotin masani: Iaduen wewe en inting wet: Takai o, me sause kasapokela, id wiala takai en pukakaim?
18 Everyone who falls on that stone will be broken to pieces, but it will crush whomever it falls on to dust.”
Meamen, me pupedi pon takai wet pan ola. A me a pupedi ong poa, a pan kapitaka pasang i.
19 The chief priests and the Torah-Teachers sought to lay hands on him that very hour, but they feared the people— for they knew he had spoken this parable against them.
I dokan o saunkawewe o samero lapalap akan raparapaki en saikidi i. A re masak aramas akan, pwe re muilikiada, me a karaseras kin irail.
20 They watched him, and sent out spies, who pretended to be upright, that they might trap him in something he said, so as to deliver him up to the power and authority of the governor.
Irail ari masamasan i o kadarala liparok kai, me pan wia kin pein irail aramas pung, pwe ren saikikidi i a masan akan ap pangalang saunkapung o manaman en kopina.
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.
Irail ari kalelapok re a potoan ong: Saunpadak, kit potoan asa, me ar masan o padak kan me pung, o re sota kotin kupuroki sansal en aramas. Pwe re kin kotin kaukaweweda melel duen al en Kot.
22 Does Torah ·Teaching· permit us to pay taxes to Caesar [Ruler], or not?”
Me pung kit en nopwei ong nanmarki, de so?
23 But he perceived their craftiness, and said to them, “Why do you test me?
A i kotin mangi ar widing, ap masani ong ir: Da me komail kasongesong kin ia?
24 Show me a denarius [one day’s wage]. Whose image and inscription are on it?” They answered, “Caesar’s [Ruler]’s.”
Kasale dong ia denar eu! Mom en is o inting wet? Re sapeng potoan ong: En nanmarki.
25 He said to them, “Then give to Caesar [Ruler] the things that are Caesar’s, and to God the things that are God’s.”
A i kotin masani ong irail: Ari komail ki ong nanmarki, me nain nanmarki, o ong Kot, me sapwilim en Kot!
26 They were not able to trap him in his words before the people. They marveled at his answer, and were silent.
Irail ari sota kak saikikidi i a masan akan mon pokon o. Irail puriamuiki me a kotin sapeng, o nenenlata.
27 Some of the Sadducees [Morally-upright] came to him, those who deny that there is a resurrection.
Sadusär akai, me kin inda, me dene melar akan solar pan maureda, ap kai dong i kalelapok re a,
28 They asked him, “Teacher, Moses [Drawn out] 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.
Potoan ong: Saunpadak, Moses intingie dong kit, ma ri ol en amen pan mela, me a paud li dapwan men, ri a ol ap pan paudekida i, pwen kaipwi ong ri a ol na seri kai.
29 There were therefore seven brothers. The first took a wife, and died childless.
Ari, pwin pirien, ol isimen mia, men mas paudeki li amen, ap mela, a sota na seri ko.
30 The second took her as wife, and he died childless.
A kariamen paude kida li o ap mela a sota na seri ko.
31 The third took her, and likewise the seven all left no children, and died.
A kasilimen paude kida i, iduen ir isimen karos, re mela, ap sota nairail seri ko.
32 Afterward the woman also died.
A ikmuri li o pil mela.
33 Therefore in the resurrection whose wife of them will she be? For the seven had her as a wife.”
Ari, ni en me melar akan ar iasada, a pan en is a paud? Pwe ir isimen karos paude kida i.
34 Yeshua [Salvation] said to them, “The children of this age marry, and are given in marriage. (aiōn g165)
Iesus kotin masani ong irail: Seri en sappa et kin papaud o kapapaud. (aiōn g165)
35 But those who are considered worthy to attain to that age and the resurrection from the dead, neither marry, nor are given in marriage. (aiōn g165)
A me war ong ale eu sap o konodi maureda sang ren me melar akan, re sota kin papaud de kapapaud. (aiōn g165)
36 For they can’t die any more, for they are like the angels, and are children of God, being children of the resurrection.
Pwe re pil solar kak mela. Pwe re paroki ong tounlang kan, o re seri en Kot akan, pwe re seri en kamaur.
37 But that the dead are raised, even Moses [Drawn out] showed at the bush, when Yahweh said ‘The God of Abraham [Father of a multitude], the God of Isaac [Laughter], and the God of Jacob [Supplanter].’
A duen en me melar akan ar pan maureda, Moses pil kadededa, ni a udial tuka o, ni a kaadaneki Kaun o: Kot en Apraam, o Kot en Isaak, o Kot en Iakop.
38 Now he is not the God of the dead, but of the living, for all are alive to him.”
Pwe Kot kaidin Kot en me melar akan, a en me maur akan, pwe karos memaur ong i.
39 Some of the Torah-Teachers answered, “Teacher, you speak well.”
A Saunkawewe kai sapeng indada: Saunpadak, ar masan me pung.
40 They didn’t dare to ask him any more questions.
Irail ap solar kak peidok re a okotme,
41 He said to them, “Why do they say that the Messiah [Anointed one] is David [Beloved]’s son?
I ari kotin masani ong irail: Iaduen ar indinda, me Kristus nain Dawid?
42 For David [Beloved] himself says in the book of Psalms,
A pein Dawid katitiki nan puk en Psalm: Kaun o kotin masani ong ai Kaun: Mondi ong ni pali maun i.
43 ‘Yahweh said to adoni [my Lord], “Sit at my right hand until I make your enemies a footstool for your feet.”’
Lao I pan wia kida om imwintiti utepan nä om.
44 “David [Beloved] therefore calls him Lord, so how is he his son?”
Dawid ari wia kin i a Kaun, a iaduen a pan kak na ol?
45 In the hearing of all the people, he said to his disciples,
A ni aramas karos rongadar, a kotin masani ong sapwilim a tounpadak kan:
46 “Beware of the Torah-Teachers, who like to walk in long robes, and phileo ·affectionately love, have high regard for· greetings in the marketplaces, the best seats in the synagogues, and the best places at feasts;
Kalaka saunkawewe kan, me kin mauki momait sili nan likau reirei o mauki, aramas en ranamau ong irail nan wasa en netinet akan, o men mondi leppantam nan sinakoke kan o ni tapin tepel.
47 who devour widows’ houses, and for a pretense make long prayers: these will receive greater condemnation.”
Me kin ngopur im en li odi kan, liasoski kapakap reirei, mepukat pan pangalang kadeik apwal.
