< Luke 20 >

1 And it came to pass, on one of those days, as he is teaching the people in the temple, and proclaiming good news, the chief priests and the scribes, with the elders, came upon [him],
ⲁ̅ⲁⲥϣⲱⲡⲉ ⲇⲉ ⲛⲟⲩϩⲟⲟⲩ ⲉϥϯⲥⲃⲱ ⲙ̅ⲡⲗⲁⲟⲥ ϩⲙ̅ⲡⲉⲣⲡⲉ ⲁⲩⲱ ⲉϥⲉⲩⲁⲅⲅⲉⲗⲓⲍⲉ ⲁⲛⲁⲣⲭⲓⲉⲣⲉⲩⲥ ⲉ͡ⲓ ⲉϫⲱϥ ⲛⲙ̅ⲛⲉⲅⲣⲁⲙⲙⲁⲧⲉⲩⲥ ⲛⲙ̅ⲛⲉⲡⲣⲉⲥⲃⲩⲧⲉⲣⲟⲥ
2 and spake unto him, saying, 'Tell us by what authority thou dost these things? or who is he that gave to thee this authority?'

3 And he answering said unto them, 'I will question you — I also — one thing, and tell me:

5 And they reasoned with themselves, saying — 'If we may say, From heaven, he will say, Wherefore, then, did ye not believe him?

7 And they answered, that they knew not whence [it was],
ⲍ̅ⲁⲩⲟⲩⲱϣⲃ̅ ⲇⲉ ⲉⲩϫⲱ ⲙ̅ⲙⲟⲥ ϫⲉ ⲛ̅ⲧⲛ̅ⲥⲟⲟⲩⲛ ⲁⲛ ϫⲉ ⲟⲩⲉⲃⲟⲗ ⲧⲱⲛ ⲡⲉ.
8 and Jesus said to them, 'Neither do I say to you by what authority I do these things.'

9 And he began to speak unto the people this simile: 'A certain man planted a vineyard, and gave it out to husbandmen, and went abroad for a long time,
ⲑ̅ⲁϥⲁⲣⲭⲓ ⲇⲉ ⲛ̅ϫⲱ ⲙ̅ⲡⲗⲁⲟⲥ ⲛ̅ⲧⲉⲓ̈ⲡⲁⲣⲁⲃⲟⲗⲏ ϫⲉ ⲟⲩⲣⲱⲙⲉ ⲡⲉⲛⲧⲁϥⲧⲱϭⲉ ⲛ̅ⲟⲩⲙⲁ ⲛⲉⲗⲟⲟⲗⲉ ⲁϥⲧⲁⲁⲁϥ ⲛ̅ϩⲉⲛⲟⲩⲉⲓ̈ⲏ ⲁϥⲁⲡⲟⲇⲏⲙⲉⲓ ⲛ̅ϩⲉⲛⲛ̅ⲟϭ ⲛ̅ⲟⲩⲟⲓ̈ϣ.
10 and at the season he sent unto the husbandmen a servant, that from the fruit of the vineyard they may give to him, but the husbandmen having beat him, did send [him] away empty.

11 'And he added to send another servant, and they that one also having beaten and dishonoured, did send away empty;

12 and he added to send a third, and this one also, having wounded, they did cast out.

13 'And the owner of the vineyard said, What shall I do? I will send my son — the beloved, perhaps having seen this one, they will do reverence;

14 and having seen him, the husbandmen reasoned among themselves, saying, This is the heir; come, we may kill him, that the inheritance may become ours;
ⲓ̅ⲇ̅ⲁⲛⲟⲩⲉⲓ̈ⲏ ⲇⲉ ⲛⲁⲩ ⲉⲣⲟϥ ⲁⲩϣⲟϫⲛⲉ ⲛⲙ̅ⲛⲉⲩⲉⲣⲏⲩ ⲉⲩϫⲱ ⲙ̅ⲙⲟⲥ ϫⲉ ⲡⲁⲓ̈ ⲡⲉ ⲡⲉⲕⲗⲏⲣⲟⲛⲟⲙⲟⲥ ⲙⲁⲣⲛ̅ⲙⲟⲟⲩⲧϥ̅ ϫⲉ ⲉⲣⲉⲧⲉⲕⲗⲏⲣⲟⲛⲟⲙⲓⲁ ϣⲱⲡⲉ ⲛⲁⲛ.
15 and having cast him outside of the vineyard, they killed [him]; what, then, shall the owner of the vineyard do to them?

16 He will come, and destroy these husbandmen, and will give the vineyard to others.' And having heard, they said, 'Let it not be!'
ⲓ̅ⲋ̅ϥⲛⲏⲩ ⲛϥ̅ⲧⲁⲕⲉⲛ̅ⲟⲩⲉⲓ̈ⲏ ⲛϥ̅ϯ ⲙ̅ⲡⲙⲁ ⲛⲉⲗⲟⲟⲗⲉ ⲛ̅ϩⲉⲛⲕⲟⲟⲩⲉ. ⲁⲩⲥⲱⲧⲙ̅ ⲇⲉ ⲡⲉϫⲁⲩ ϫⲉ ⲛ̅ⲛⲉⲥϣⲱⲡⲉ.
17 and he, having looked upon them, said, 'What, then, is this that hath been written: A stone that the builders rejected — this became head of a corner?

19 And the chief priests and the scribes sought to lay hands on him in that hour, and they feared the people, for they knew that against them he spake this simile.

20 And, having watched [him], they sent forth liers in wait, feigning themselves to be righteous, that they might take hold of his word, to deliver him up to the rule and to the authority of the governor,
ⲕ̅ⲁⲩⲡⲁⲣⲁⲧⲏⲣⲓ ⲇⲉ ⲁⲩϫⲟⲟⲩ ⲛ̅ϩⲉⲛⲣⲉϥϭⲱⲣϭ̅ ⲉϩⲩⲡⲟⲕⲣⲓⲛⲉ. ϫⲉ ⲛⲉϩⲉⲛⲇⲓⲕⲁⲓⲟⲥ ⲛⲉ ϫⲉⲕⲁⲥ ⲉⲩⲉϭⲟⲡϥ̅ ⲛ̅ⲟⲩϣⲁϫⲉ ⲉⲧⲣⲉⲩⲧⲁⲁϥ ⲉⲧⲁⲣⲭⲏ ⲛⲙ̅ⲧⲉⲝⲟⲩⲥⲓⲁ ⲙⲫⲏⲅⲉⲙⲱⲛ.
21 and they questioned him, saying, 'Teacher, we have known that thou dost say and teach rightly, and dost not accept a person, but in truth the way of God dost teach;

23 And he, having perceived their craftiness, said unto them, 'Why me do ye tempt?

26 and they were not able to take hold on his saying before the people, and having wondered at his answer, they were silent.

27 And certain of the Sadducees, who are denying that there is a rising again, having come near, questioned him,

28 saying, 'Teacher, Moses wrote to us, If any one's brother may die, having a wife, and he may die childless — that his brother may take the wife, and may raise up seed to his brother.
