< Luke 20 >

1 It came about one day, as Jesus was teaching the people in the temple and preaching the gospel, the chief priests and the scribes came to him with the elders.
και εγενετο εν μια των ημερων εκεινων διδασκοντος αυτου τον λαον εν τω ιερω και ευαγγελιζομενου επεστησαν οι ιερεις και οι γραμματεις συν τοις πρεσβυτεροις
2 They spoke, saying to him, “Tell us by what authority you do these things, or who it is who gave you this authority.”
και ειπον προς αυτον λεγοντες ειπε ημιν εν ποια εξουσια ταυτα ποιεις η τις εστιν ο δους σοι την εξουσιαν ταυτην
3 He answered and said to them, “I will also ask you a question, and you tell me.
αποκριθεις δε ειπεν προς αυτους ερωτησω υμας καγω ενα λογον και ειπατε μοι
4 The baptism of John: was it from heaven or from men?”
το βαπτισμα ιωαννου εξ ουρανου ην η εξ ανθρωπων
5 They reasoned with themselves, saying, “If we say, 'From heaven,' he will say, 'Then why did you not believe him?'
οι δε συνελογισαντο προς εαυτους λεγοντες οτι εαν ειπωμεν εξ ουρανου ερει διατι ουν ουκ επιστευσατε αυτω
6 But if we say, 'From men,' all the people will stone us, for they are persuaded that John was a prophet.”
εαν δε ειπωμεν εξ ανθρωπων πας ο λαος καταλιθασει ημας πεπεισμενος γαρ εστιν ιωαννην προφητην ειναι
7 So they answered that they did not know where it came from.
και απεκριθησαν μη ειδεναι ποθεν
8 Jesus said to them, “Neither will I tell you by what authority I do these things.”
και ο ιησους ειπεν αυτοις ουδε εγω λεγω υμιν εν ποια εξουσια ταυτα ποιω
9 He told the people this parable, “A man planted a vineyard, rented it out to vine growers, and went into another country for a long time.
ηρξατο δε προς τον λαον λεγειν την παραβολην ταυτην ανθρωπος τις εφυτευσεν αμπελωνα και εξεδοτο αυτον γεωργοις και απεδημησεν χρονους ικανους
10 At the appointed time he sent a servant to the vine growers, that they should give him of the fruit of the vineyard. But the vine growers beat him, and sent him away empty-handed.
και εν τω καιρω απεστειλεν προς τους γεωργους δουλον ινα απο του καρπου του αμπελωνος δωσουσιν αυτω οι δε γεωργοι δειραντες αυτον εξαπεστειλαν κενον
11 He then sent yet another servant and they also beat him, treated him shamefully, and sent him away empty-handed.
και προσεθετο αυτοις πεμψαι ετερον δουλον οι δε κακεινον δειραντες και ατιμασαντες εξαπεστειλαν κενον
12 He also sent yet a third and they also wounded him, and threw him out.
και προσεθετο πεμψαι τριτον οι δε και τουτον τραυματισαντες εξεβαλον
13 So the lord of the vineyard said, 'What will I do? I will send my beloved son. Maybe they will respect him.'
ειπεν δε ο κυριος του αμπελωνος τι ποιησω πεμψω τον υιον μου τον αγαπητον ισως τουτον ιδοντες εντραπησονται
14 But when the vine growers saw him, they discussed among themselves, saying, 'This is the heir. Let us kill him, that the inheritance may be ours.'
ιδοντες δε αυτον οι γεωργοι διελογιζοντο προς εαυτους λεγοντες ουτος εστιν ο κληρονομος δευτε αποκτεινωμεν αυτον ινα ημων γενηται η κληρονομια
15 They threw him out of the vineyard and killed him. What then will the lord of the vineyard do to them?
και εκβαλοντες αυτον εξω του αμπελωνος απεκτειναν τι ουν ποιησει αυτοις ο κυριος του αμπελωνος
16 He will come and destroy these vine growers, and will give the vineyard to others.” When they heard it, they said, “May it never be!”
ελευσεται και απολεσει τους γεωργους τουτους και δωσει τον αμπελωνα αλλοις ακουσαντες δε ειπον μη γενοιτο
17 But Jesus looked at them, and said, “What is the meaning of that which is written: 'The stone that the builders rejected has become the cornerstone'?
ο δε εμβλεψας αυτοις ειπεν τι ουν εστιν το γεγραμμενον τουτο λιθον ον απεδοκιμασαν οι οικοδομουντες ουτος εγενηθη εις κεφαλην γωνιας
18 Every one who falls on that stone will be broken to pieces. But on whomever it falls, it will crush.”
πας ο πεσων επ εκεινον τον λιθον συνθλασθησεται εφ ον δ αν πεση λικμησει αυτον
19 So the scribes and the chief priests sought to lay hands on him in that very hour, for they knew that he had spoken this parable against them. But they were afraid of the people.
και εζητησαν οι αρχιερεις και οι γραμματεις επιβαλειν επ αυτον τας χειρας εν αυτη τη ωρα και εφοβηθησαν τον λαον εγνωσαν γαρ οτι προς αυτους τας παραβολας ελεγεν
20 Watching him carefully, they sent out spies who pretended to be righteous, that they might find fault with his speech, so as to deliver him up to the rule and to the authority of the governor.
και παρατηρησαντες απεστειλαν εγκαθετους υποκρινομενους εαυτους δικαιους ειναι ινα επιλαβωνται αυτου λογου εις το παραδουναι αυτον τη αρχη και τη εξουσια του ηγεμονος
21 They asked him, saying, “Teacher, we know that you say and teach rightly, and are not influenced by anyone's position, but you teach the truth about the way of God.
και επηρωτησαν αυτον λεγοντες διδασκαλε οιδαμεν οτι ορθως λεγεις και διδασκεις και ου λαμβανεις προσωπον αλλ επ αληθειας την οδον του θεου διδασκεις
22 Is it lawful for us to pay taxes to Caesar, or not?”
εξεστιν ημιν καισαρι φορον δουναι η ου
23 But Jesus understood their craftiness, and said to them,
κατανοησας δε αυτων την πανουργιαν ειπεν προς αυτους τι με πειραζετε
24 “Show me a denarius. Whose image and name is on it?” They said, “Caesar's.”
δειξατε μοι δηναριον τινος εχει εικονα και επιγραφην αποκριθεντες δε ειπον καισαρος
25 He said to them, “Then give to Caesar the things that are Caesar's, and to God the things that are God's.”
ο δε ειπεν αυτοις αποδοτε τοινυν τα καισαρος καισαρι και τα του θεου τω θεω
26 They were not able to find fault with what he had said in front of the people, but marveling at his answer, they were silent.
και ουκ ισχυσαν επιλαβεσθαι αυτου ρηματος εναντιον του λαου και θαυμασαντες επι τη αποκρισει αυτου εσιγησαν
27 When some of the Sadducees came to him, the ones who say that there is no resurrection,
προσελθοντες δε τινες των σαδδουκαιων οι λεγοντες μη ειναι αναστασιν επηρωτησαν αυτον
28 they asked him, saying, “Teacher, Moses wrote to us that if a man's brother dies, having a wife, and being childless, the man should take the brother's wife, and have a child for his brother.
λεγοντες διδασκαλε μωυσης εγραψεν ημιν εαν τινος αδελφος αποθανη εχων γυναικα και ουτος ατεκνος αποθανη ινα λαβη ο αδελφος αυτου την γυναικα και εξαναστηση σπερμα τω αδελφω αυτου
29 There were seven brothers and the first took a wife, and died childless,
επτα ουν αδελφοι ησαν και ο πρωτος λαβων γυναικα απεθανεν ατεκνος
30 and the second as well.
και ελαβεν ο δευτερος την γυναικα και ουτος απεθανεν ατεκνος
31 The third took her, and likewise the seven also left no children, and died.
και ο τριτος ελαβεν αυτην ωσαυτως ωσαυτως δε και οι επτα ου κατελιπον τεκνα και απεθανον
32 Afterward the woman also died.
υστερον δε παντων και η γυνη απεθανεν
33 In the resurrection then, whose wife will she be? For the seven had her as their wife.”
εν τη αναστασει ουν τινος αυτων γινεται γυνη οι γαρ επτα εσχον αυτην γυναικα
34 Jesus said to them, “The sons of this world marry and are given in marriage. (aiōn g165)
και αποκριθεις ειπεν αυτοις ο ιησους οι υιοι του αιωνος τουτου γαμουσιν και εκγαμιζονται (aiōn g165)
35 But those who are regarded as worthy in that age to receive the resurrection from the dead will neither marry nor be given in marriage. (aiōn g165)
οι δε καταξιωθεντες του αιωνος εκεινου τυχειν και της αναστασεως της εκ νεκρων ουτε γαμουσιν ουτε γαμιζονται (aiōn g165)
36 Neither can they die anymore, for they are equal to the angels and are sons of God, being sons of the resurrection.
ουτε γαρ αποθανειν ετι δυνανται ισαγγελοι γαρ εισιν και υιοι εισιν του θεου της αναστασεως υιοι οντες
37 But that the dead are raised, even Moses showed, in the place concerning the bush, where he calls the Lord the God of Abraham and the God of Isaac and the God of Jacob.
οτι δε εγειρονται οι νεκροι και μωυσης εμηνυσεν επι της βατου ως λεγει κυριον τον θεον αβρααμ και τον θεον ισαακ και τον θεον ιακωβ
38 Now he is not the God of the dead, but of the living, because all live to him.”
θεος δε ουκ εστιν νεκρων αλλα ζωντων παντες γαρ αυτω ζωσιν
39 Some of the scribes answered, “Teacher, you have answered well.”
αποκριθεντες δε τινες των γραμματεων ειπον διδασκαλε καλως ειπας
40 For they did not dare ask him any more questions.
ουκετι δε ετολμων επερωταν αυτον ουδεν
41 Jesus said to them, “How do they say that the Christ is David's son?
ειπεν δε προς αυτους πως λεγουσιν τον χριστον υιον δαυιδ ειναι
42 For David himself says in the Book of Psalms, The Lord said to my Lord, 'Sit at my right hand,
και αυτος δαυιδ λεγει εν βιβλω των ψαλμων ειπεν ο κυριος τω κυριω μου καθου εκ δεξιων μου
43 until I make your enemies your footstool.'
εως αν θω τους εχθρους σου υποποδιον των ποδων σου
44 David therefore calls the Christ 'Lord', so how is he David's son?”
δαυιδ ουν αυτον κυριον καλει και πως υιος αυτου εστιν
45 In the hearing of all the people he said to his disciples,
ακουοντος δε παντος του λαου ειπεν τοις μαθηταις αυτου
46 “Beware of the scribes, who desire to walk in long robes, and love special greetings in the marketplaces, and chief seats in the synagogues, and chief places at feasts.
προσεχετε απο των γραμματεων των θελοντων περιπατειν εν στολαις και φιλουντων ασπασμους εν ταις αγοραις και πρωτοκαθεδριας εν ταις συναγωγαις και πρωτοκλισιας εν τοις δειπνοις
47 They also devour widows' houses, and for a show they make long prayers. Men like this will receive greater condemnation.”
οι κατεσθιουσιν τας οικιας των χηρων και προφασει μακρα προσευχονται ουτοι ληψονται περισσοτερον κριμα
