Luke 20
1 And it came to pass, on one of the days, as he was teaching the people in the temple, and telling the good tidings, that the High-priests and the Scribes, with the Elders, came upon him, —
athaikadā yīśu rmanidarē susaṁvādaṁ pracārayan lōkānupadiśati, ētarhi pradhānayājakā adhyāpakāḥ prāñcaśca tannikaṭamāgatya papracchuḥ
2 and spake, saying, unto him—Tell us, by what authority, these things, thou art doing, and, who, is it, that gave thee this authority.
kayājñayā tvaṁ karmmāṇyētāni karōṣi? kō vā tvāmājñāpayat? tadasmān vada|
3 And answering, he said unto them—I too, will question, you, as to a matter, —and tell me!
sa pratyuvāca, tarhi yuṣmānapi kathāmēkāṁ pr̥cchāmi tasyōttaraṁ vadata|
4 The immersion of John, Of heaven, was it, or of men?
yōhanō majjanam īśvarasya mānuṣāṇāṁ vājñātō jātaṁ?
5 And they deliberated together by themselves, saying—If we say, Of heaven, he will say, Wherefore did ye not believe him?
tatastē mithō vivicya jagaduḥ, yadīśvarasya vadāmastarhi taṁ kutō na pratyaita sa iti vakṣyati|
6 But, if we say, Of men, the people, one and all, will stone us, for, persuaded, they are, that, John, was, a prophet.
yadi manuṣyasyēti vadāmastarhi sarvvē lōkā asmān pāṣāṇai rhaniṣyanti yatō yōhan bhaviṣyadvādīti sarvvē dr̥ḍhaṁ jānanti|
7 And they answered, that they knew not whence.
ataēva tē pratyūcuḥ kasyājñayā jātam iti vaktuṁ na śaknumaḥ|
8 And, Jesus, said unto them—Neither do, I, tell, you, by what authority, these things, I am doing.
tadā yīśuravadat tarhi kayājñayā karmmāṇyētāti karōmīti ca yuṣmān na vakṣyāmi|
9 And he began, unto the people, to be speaking this parable: —A man, planted a vineyard, and let it out to husbandmen, and went from home for a long time.
atha lōkānāṁ sākṣāt sa imāṁ dr̥ṣṭāntakathāṁ vaktumārēbhē, kaścid drākṣākṣētraṁ kr̥tvā tat kṣētraṁ kr̥ṣīvalānāṁ hastēṣu samarpya bahukālārthaṁ dūradēśaṁ jagāma|
10 And, in due season, he sent unto the husbandmen, a servant, that, of the fruit of the vineyard, they might give him; but, the husbandmen, having beaten him, sent him away empty.
atha phalakālē phalāni grahītu kr̥ṣīvalānāṁ samīpē dāsaṁ prāhiṇōt kintu kr̥ṣīvalāstaṁ prahr̥tya riktahastaṁ visasarjuḥ|
11 And he, further, sent another servant; but, they, beating, that one also, and dishonouring him, sent him away, empty.
tataḥ sōdhipatiḥ punaranyaṁ dāsaṁ prēṣayāmāsa, tē tamapi prahr̥tya kuvyavahr̥tya riktahastaṁ visasr̥juḥ|
12 And he, further, sent, a third; but, they, bruising, this one also, thrust him out.
tataḥ sa tr̥tīyavāram anyaṁ prāhiṇōt tē tamapi kṣatāṅgaṁ kr̥tvā bahi rnicikṣipuḥ|
13 And the lord of the vineyard said—What shall I do? I will send my son, the beloved, —It may be, that, him, they will respect.
tadā kṣētrapati rvicārayāmāsa, mamēdānīṁ kiṁ karttavyaṁ? mama priyē putrē prahitē tē tamavaśyaṁ dr̥ṣṭvā samādariṣyantē|
14 But he husbandmen, seeing him, began to deliberate one with another, saying—This, is, the heir: Let us slay him, that, ours, may be, the inheritance.
kintu kr̥ṣīvalāstaṁ nirīkṣya parasparaṁ vivicya prōcuḥ, ayamuttarādhikārī āgacchatainaṁ hanmastatōdhikārōsmākaṁ bhaviṣyati|
15 And, thrusting him forth outside the vineyard, they slew him. What, then, will the lord of the vineyard do unto them?
tatastē taṁ kṣētrād bahi rnipātya jaghnustasmāt sa kṣētrapatistān prati kiṁ kariṣyati?
16 He will come, and destroy these husbandmen, and give the vineyard unto others. But, when they heard it, they said—Far be it!
sa āgatya tān kr̥ṣīvalān hatvā parēṣāṁ hastēṣu tatkṣētraṁ samarpayiṣyati; iti kathāṁ śrutvā tē 'vadan ētādr̥śī ghaṭanā na bhavatu|
17 But, he, looking at them, said—What, then, is this that is written, —A stone which the builders’ rejected, The same, hath become, head of the corner?
kintu yīśustānavalōkya jagāda, tarhi, sthapatayaḥ kariṣyanti grāvāṇaṁ yantu tucchakaṁ| pradhānaprastaraḥ kōṇē sa ēva hi bhaviṣyati| ētasya śāstrīyavacanasya kiṁ tātparyyaṁ?
18 Every one who falleth on that stone, will be sorely bruised, but, on whomsoever it shall fall, it will utterly destroy him.
aparaṁ tatpāṣāṇōpari yaḥ patiṣyati sa bhaṁkṣyatē kintu yasyōpari sa pāṣāṇaḥ patiṣyati sa tēna dhūlivac cūrṇībhaviṣyati|
19 And the Scribes and the High-priests sought to thrust on him their hands, in that very hour; and feared the people; for they perceived that, against them, spake he this parable.
sōsmākaṁ viruddhaṁ dr̥ṣṭāntamimaṁ kathitavān iti jñātvā pradhānayājakā adhyāpakāśca tadaiva taṁ dhartuṁ vavāñchuḥ kintu lōkēbhyō bibhyuḥ|
20 And, watching narrowly, they sent forth suborned men, feigning themselves to be, righteous, that they might lay hold of a word of his, so as to deliver him up unto the rule and the authority of the governor.
ataēva taṁ prati satarkāḥ santaḥ kathaṁ tadvākyadōṣaṁ dhr̥tvā taṁ dēśādhipasya sādhuvēśadhāriṇaścarān tasya samīpē prēṣayāmāsuḥ|
21 And they questioned him, saying—Teacher! we know that, rightly, thou speakest and teachest, and respectest no person, but, in truth, the way of God, dost teach:
tadā tē taṁ papracchuḥ, hē upadēśaka bhavān yathārthaṁ kathayan upadiśati, kamapyanapēkṣya satyatvēnaiśvaraṁ mārgamupadiśati, vayamētajjānīmaḥ|
22 Is it allowable for us to give, unto Caesar, tribute, or not?
kaisararājāya karōsmābhi rdēyō na vā?
23 But, observing their villainy, he said unto them—
sa tēṣāṁ vañcanaṁ jñātvāvadat kutō māṁ parīkṣadhvē? māṁ mudrāmēkaṁ darśayata|
24 Shew me a denary. Of whom, hath it an image and inscription? And, they, said—Of Caesar.
iha likhitā mūrtiriyaṁ nāma ca kasya? tē'vadan kaisarasya|
25 And, he, said unto them—Well then! render the things of Caesar, unto Caesar, and the things of God, unto God.
tadā sa uvāca, tarhi kaisarasya dravyaṁ kaisarāya datta; īśvarasya tu dravyamīśvarāya datta|
26 And they could not lay hold of the saying, before the people; and, marvelling at his answer, they held their peace.
tasmāllōkānāṁ sākṣāt tatkathāyāḥ kamapi dōṣaṁ dhartumaprāpya tē tasyōttarād āścaryyaṁ manyamānā mauninastasthuḥ|
27 But there came near certain of the Sadducees, they who say, Resurrection, there is none! and questioned him,
aparañca śmaśānādutthānānaṅgīkāriṇāṁ sidūkināṁ kiyantō janā āgatya taṁ papracchuḥ,
28 saying—Teacher! Moses, wrote for us, If one’s brother die, having a wife, and, he, be, childless, that his brother shall take the wife, and raise up seed unto his brother.
hē upadēśaka śāstrē mūsā asmān pratīti lilēkha yasya bhrātā bhāryyāyāṁ satyāṁ niḥsantānō mriyatē sa tajjāyāṁ vivahya tadvaṁśam utpādayiṣyati|
29 Seven brethren, therefore, there were, —and, the first, taking a wife, died childless,
tathāca kēcit sapta bhrātara āsan tēṣāṁ jyēṣṭhō bhrātā vivahya nirapatyaḥ prāṇān jahau|
30 And, the second,
atha dvitīyastasya jāyāṁ vivahya nirapatyaḥ san mamāra| tr̥tīyaśca tāmēva vyuvāha;
31 and the third, took her, —yea, likewise, even the seven; They left no children, and died:
itthaṁ sapta bhrātarastāmēva vivahya nirapatyāḥ santō mamruḥ|
32 Later on, the woman also, died.
śēṣē sā strī ca mamāra|
33 The woman, therefore, in the resurrection, Of which of them, doth she become wife? for, the seven, had her to wife.
ataēva śmaśānādutthānakālē tēṣāṁ saptajanānāṁ kasya sā bhāryyā bhaviṣyati? yataḥ sā tēṣāṁ saptānāmēva bhāryyāsīt|
tadā yīśuḥ pratyuvāca, ētasya jagatō lōkā vivahanti vāgdattāśca bhavanti (aiōn g165)
35 But, they who have been accounted worthy, that age, to obtain, and the resurrection that is from among the dead, neither marry, nor are given in marriage; (aiōn g165)
kintu yē tajjagatprāptiyōgyatvēna gaṇitāṁ bhaviṣyanti śmaśānāccōtthāsyanti tē na vivahanti vāgdattāśca na bhavanti, (aiōn g165)
36 For they cannot, even die any more, —for, equal unto messengers, are they, and are, sons of God, Of the resurrection, being, sons.
tē puna rna mriyantē kintu śmaśānādutthāpitāḥ santa īśvarasya santānāḥ svargīyadūtānāṁ sadr̥śāśca bhavanti|
37 But, that the dead do rise, even Moses, disclosed at the bush, when he calleth the Lord—The God of Abraham and God of Isaac and God of Jacob:
adhikantu mūsāḥ stambōpākhyānē paramēśvara ībrāhīma īśvara ishāka īśvarō yākūbaścēśvara ityuktvā mr̥tānāṁ śmaśānād utthānasya pramāṇaṁ lilēkha|
38 Now, God, he is not, of the dead, but, of the living, —for, all, unto him, do live.
ataēva ya īśvaraḥ sa mr̥tānāṁ prabhu rna kintu jīvatāmēva prabhuḥ, tannikaṭē sarvvē jīvantaḥ santi|
39 And certain of the Scribes, answering, said—Teacher! Well, hast thou spoken.
iti śrutvā kiyantōdhyāpakā ūcuḥ, hē upadēśaka bhavān bhadraṁ pratyuktavān|
40 For, no longer, were they daring to ask him any questions.
itaḥ paraṁ taṁ kimapi praṣṭaṁ tēṣāṁ pragalbhatā nābhūt|
41 And he said unto them—How say they, that, the Christ, is, David’s Son?
paścāt sa tān uvāca, yaḥ khrīṣṭaḥ sa dāyūdaḥ santāna ētāṁ kathāṁ lōkāḥ kathaṁ kathayanti?
42 For, David himself, saith, in [the] book of Psalms: Said the Lord, unto my Lord, Sit thou at my right hand,
yataḥ mama prabhumidaṁ vākyamavadat paramēśvaraḥ| tava śatrūnahaṁ yāvat pādapīṭhaṁ karōmi na| tāvat kālaṁ madīyē tvaṁ dakṣapārśva upāviśa|
43 Until I make thy foes thy footstool.
iti kathāṁ dāyūd svayaṁ gītagranthē'vadat|
44 David, therefore, calleth, him Lord: How, then, his son, is he?
ataēva yadi dāyūd taṁ prabhuṁ vadati, tarhi sa kathaṁ tasya santānō bhavati?
45 And, all the people hearing, he said unto the disciples:
paścād yīśuḥ sarvvajanānāṁ karṇagōcarē śiṣyānuvāca,
46 Be taking heed of the Scribes—Who desire to walk about in long robes, and are fond of salutations in the markets, and first seats in the synagogues, and first couches in the chief meals, —
yē'dhyāpakā dīrghaparicchadaṁ paridhāya bhramanti, haṭṭāpaṇayō rnamaskārē bhajanagēhasya prōccāsanē bhōjanagr̥hasya pradhānasthānē ca prīyantē
47 Who devour the houses of widows, and, for a show, are a long time at prayer. These, shall receive, a heavier sentence.
vidhavānāṁ sarvvasvaṁ grasitvā chalēna dīrghakālaṁ prārthayantē ca tēṣu sāvadhānā bhavata, tēṣāmugradaṇḍō bhaviṣyati|
