Luke 20
1 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
One day as Jesus was teaching the people in the temple courts and proclaiming the gospel, the chief priests and scribes, together with the elders, came up to Him.
2 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?
“Tell us,” they said, “by what authority are You doing these things, and who gave You this authority?”
3 Answering now He said to them; Will ask you I myself also I myself also (one *k) thing, and do tell Me:
“I will also ask you a question,” Jesus replied. “Tell Me:
4 The baptism of John from heaven was it or from men?
John’s baptism—was it from heaven, or from men?”
5 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?
They deliberated among themselves and said, “If we say, ‘From heaven,’ He will ask, ‘Why did you not believe him?’
6 If however we shall say; From men, the people (all *N+kO) will stone us; persuaded for they are John a prophet to be.
But if we say, ‘From men,’ all the people will stone us, for they are convinced that John was a prophet.”
7 And they answered not to know from where.
So they answered that they did not know where it was from.
8 And Jesus said to them; Neither I myself tell you by what authority these things I am doing.
And Jesus replied, “Neither will I tell you by what authority I am doing these things.”
9 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.
Then He proceeded to tell the people this parable: “A man planted a vineyard, rented it out to some tenants, and went away for a long time.
10 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.
At harvest time, he sent a servant to the tenants to collect his share of the fruit of the vineyard. But the tenants beat the servant and sent him away empty-handed.
11 And he proceeded another to send a servant; but him him having beaten and having dishonored they sent away empty-handed.
So he sent another servant, but they beat him and treated him shamefully, sending him away empty-handed.
12 And he proceeded a third to send; They then also him having wounded they cast out.
Then he sent a third, but they wounded him and threw him out.
13 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.
‘What shall I do?’ asked the owner of the vineyard. ‘I will send my beloved son. Perhaps they will respect him.’
14 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.
But when the tenants saw the son, they discussed it among themselves and said, ‘This is the heir. Let us kill him, and the inheritance will be ours.’
15 And having cast forth him outside the vineyard they killed [him]. What therefore will do to them the master of the vineyard?
So they threw him out of the vineyard and killed him. What then will the owner of the vineyard do to them?
16 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!
He will come and kill those tenants, and will give the vineyard to others.” And when the people heard this, they said, “May such a thing never happen!”
17 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’?
But Jesus looked directly at them and said, “Then what is the meaning of that which is written: ‘The stone the builders rejected has become the cornerstone’?
18 Everyone falling on that [very] stone will be broken; on whomever but maybe it may fall, it will grind into powder him.
Everyone who falls on this stone will be broken to pieces, but he on whom it falls will be crushed.”
19 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.
When the scribes and chief priests realized that Jesus had spoken this parable against them, they sought to arrest Him that very hour. But they were afraid of the people.
20 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.
So they watched Him closely and sent spies who pretended to be sincere. They were hoping to catch Him in His words in order to hand Him over to the rule and authority of the governor.
21 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.
“Teacher,” they inquired, “we know that You speak and teach correctly. You show no partiality, but teach the way of God in accordance with the truth.
22 Is it lawful (for us *N+kO) to Caesar tribute to give or not?
Is it lawful for us to pay taxes to Caesar or not?”
23 having perceived however of them the craftiness He said to them (why *KO) (me do you test; *K)
But Jesus saw through their duplicity and said to them,
24 (do show *N+kO) Me a denarius; Of whom has it [the] image and inscription? (Those *N+KO) And they said; Caesar’s.
“Show Me a denarius. Whose image and inscription are on it?” “Caesar’s,” they answered.
25 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.
So Jesus told them, “Give to Caesar what is Caesar’s, and to God what is God’s.”
26 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.
And they were unable to trap Him in His words before the people; and amazed at His answer, they fell silent.
27 Having approached then some of the Sadducees, the ones (denying *NK+o) a resurrection not being, they questioned Him
Then some of the Sadducees, who say there is no resurrection, came to question Him.
28 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.
“Teacher,” they said, “Moses wrote for us that if a man’s brother dies and leaves a wife but no children, the man is to marry his brother’s widow and raise up offspring for him.
29 Seven therefore brothers there were; and the first having taken a wife died childless,
Now there were seven brothers. The first one married a wife, but died childless.
30 and (took *K) the second (wife and this died childless *K)
Then the second
31 and the third took her (likewise *o) likewise then also the seven not did leave children and died.
and the third married the widow, and in the same way all seven died, leaving no children.
32 Finally (now of all *K) also the woman died.
And last of all, the woman died.
33 (The woman *no) therefore in the resurrection, of which of them does she become wife? For the seven had her as wife.
So then, in the resurrection, whose wife will she be? For all seven were married to her.”
34 And (answering *k) said to them Jesus; The sons of the age this marry and (are given in marriage, *N+kO) (aiōn g165)
Jesus answered, “The sons of this age marry and are given in marriage. (aiōn g165)
35 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)
But those who are considered worthy to share in the age to come and in the resurrection from the dead will neither marry nor be given in marriage. (aiōn g165)
36 (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.
In fact, they can no longer die, because they are like the angels. And since they are sons of the resurrection, they are sons of God.
37 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.’
Even Moses demonstrates that the dead are raised, in the passage about the burning bush. For he calls the Lord ‘the God of Abraham, the God of Isaac, and the God of Jacob.’
38 God now not He is of [the] dead but of [the] living; all for to Him live.
He is not the God of the dead, but of the living, for to Him all are alive.”
39 Answering now some of the scribes said; Teacher, well you have spoken.
Some of the scribes answered, “Teacher, You have spoken well!”
40 no longer no longer (then *N+kO) were they daring to ask Him no [thing].
And they did not dare to question Him any further.
41 He said then to them; How do they declare the Christ to be David's Son
Then Jesus declared, “How can it be said that the Christ is the Son of David?
42 (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
For David himself says in the book of Psalms: ‘The Lord said to my Lord, “Sit at My right hand
43 until when I may place the enemies of You [as] a footstool of the feet of You.
until I make Your enemies a footstool for Your feet.”’
44 David therefore Lord Him calls, and how of him son is He?
Thus David calls Him ‘Lord.’ So how can He be David’s son?”
45 When are listening now all the people He said to the disciples of Him;
In the hearing of all the people, Jesus said to His disciples,
46 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,
“Beware of the scribes. They like to walk around in long robes, and they love the greetings in the marketplaces, the chief seats in the synagogues, and the places of honor at banquets.
47 who devour the houses of widows and as a pretext at great length pray; These will receive more excessive condemnation.
They defraud widows of their houses, and for a show make lengthy prayers. These men will receive greater condemnation.”
