Κατα Λουκαν 20
1 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
It happened on one of those days, as he was teaching the people in the temple and proclaiming the Good News, that the chief cohanim and scribes came to him with the elders.
2 και ειπον προς αυτον λεγοντες ειπε ημιν εν ποια εξουσια ταυτα ποιεις η τις εστιν ο δους σοι την εξουσιαν ταυτην
They asked him, "Tell us: by what authority do you do these things? Or who is giving you this authority?"
3 αποκριθεις δε ειπεν προς αυτους ερωτησω υμας καγω ενα λογον και ειπατε μοι
He answered them, "I also will ask you one question. Tell me:
4 το βαπτισμα ιωαννου εξ ουρανου ην η εξ ανθρωπων
the immersion of John, was it from heaven, or from man?"
5 οι δε συνελογισαντο προς εαυτους λεγοντες οτι εαν ειπωμεν εξ ουρανου ερει δια τι ουκ επιστευσατε αυτω
They reasoned with themselves, saying, "If we say, 'From heaven,' he will say, 'Why did you not believe him?'
6 εαν δε ειπωμεν εξ ανθρωπων πας ο λαος καταλιθασει ημας πεπεισμενος γαρ εστιν ιωαννην προφητην ειναι
But if we say, 'From man,' all the people will stone us, for they are persuaded that John was a prophet."
7 και απεκριθησαν μη ειδεναι ποθεν
They answered that they did not know where it was from.
8 και ο ιησους ειπεν αυτοις ουδε εγω λεγω υμιν εν ποια εξουσια ταυτα ποιω
Yeshua said to them, "Neither will I tell you by what authority I do these things."
9 ηρξατο δε προς τον λαον λεγειν την παραβολην ταυτην ανθρωπος εφυτευσεν αμπελωνα και εξεδοτο αυτον γεωργοις και απεδημησεν χρονους ικανους
He began to tell the people this parable. "A man planted a vineyard, and rented it out to some farmers, and went on a journey for a long time.
10 και εν καιρω απεστειλεν προς τους γεωργους δουλον ινα απο του καρπου του αμπελωνος δωσιν αυτω οι δε γεωργοι δηραντες αυτον εξαπεστειλαν κενον
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.
11 και προσεθετο πεμψαι ετερον δουλον οι δε κακεινον δηραντες και ατιμασαντες εξαπεστειλαν κενον
He sent yet another servant, and they also beat him, and treated him shamefully, and sent him away empty.
12 και προσεθετο πεμψαι τριτον οι δε και τουτον τραυματισαντες εξεβαλον
He sent yet a third, and they also wounded him, and threw him out.
13 ειπεν δε ο κυριος του αμπελωνος τι ποιησω πεμψω τον υιον μου τον αγαπητον ισως τουτον ιδοντες εντραπησονται
The lord of the vineyard said, 'What am I to do? I will send my beloved son. It may be that they will respect him.'
14 ιδοντες δε αυτον οι γεωργοι διελογιζοντο προς εαυτους λεγοντες ουτος εστιν ο κληρονομος δευτε αποκτεινωμεν αυτον ινα ημων γενηται η κληρονομια
"But when the farmers saw him, they reasoned among themselves, saying, 'This is the heir. Let us kill him, that the inheritance may be ours.'
15 και εκβαλοντες εξω του αμπελωνος απεκτειναν τι ουν ποιησει αυτοις ο κυριος του αμπελωνος
They threw him out of the vineyard, and killed him. What therefore will the lord of the vineyard do to them?
16 ελευσεται και απολεσει τους γεωργους τουτους και δωσει τον αμπελωνα αλλοις ακουσαντες δε ειπον μη γενοιτο
He will come and destroy these farmers, and will give the vineyard to others." When they heard it, they said, "May it never be."
17 ο δε εμβλεψας αυτοις ειπεν τι ουν εστιν το γεγραμμενον τουτο λιθον ον απεδοκιμασαν οι οικοδομουντες ουτος εγενηθη εις κεφαλην γωνιας
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?'
18 πας ο πεσων επ εκεινον τον λιθον συνθλασθησεται εφ ον δ αν πεση λικμησει αυτον
Everyone who falls on that stone will be broken to pieces; but on whomever it falls, it will crush him."
19 και εζητησαν οι αρχιερεις και οι γραμματεις επιβαλειν επ αυτον τας χειρας εν αυτη τη ωρα και εφοβηθησαν εγνωσαν γαρ οτι προς αυτους την παραβολην ταυτην ειπεν
The chief cohanim and the scribes sought to lay hands on him that very hour, but they feared the people—for they knew he had spoken this parable against them.
20 και παρατηρησαντες απεστειλαν εγκαθετους υποκρινομενους εαυτους δικαιους ειναι ινα επιλαβωνται αυτου λογου εις το παραδουναι αυτον τη αρχη και τη εξουσια του ηγεμονος
They watched him, and sent out spies, who pretended to be righteous, that they might trap him in something he said, so as to deliver him up to the power and authority of the governor.
21 και επηρωτησαν αυτον λεγοντες διδασκαλε οιδαμεν οτι ορθως λεγεις και διδασκεις και ου λαμβανεις προσωπον αλλ επ αληθειας την οδον του θεου διδασκεις
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.
22 εξεστιν ημιν καισαρι φορον δουναι η ου
Is it lawful for us to pay taxes to Caesar, or not?"
23 κατανοησας δε αυτων την πανουργιαν ειπεν προς αυτους τι με πειραζετε
But he perceived their craftiness, and said to them,
24 επιδειξατε μοι δηναριον τινος εχει εικονα και επιγραφην αποκριθεντες δε ειπον καισαρος
"Show me a denarius. Whose image and inscription are on it?" They answered, "Caesar's."
25 ο δε ειπεν αυτοις αποδοτε τοινυν τα καισαρος καισαρι και τα του θεου τω θεω
He said to them, "Then give to Caesar the things that are Caesar's, and to God the things that are God's."
26 και ουκ ισχυσαν επιλαβεσθαι αυτου ρηματος εναντιον του λαου και θαυμασαντες επι τη αποκρισει αυτου εσιγησαν
They weren't able to trap him in his words before the people. And amazed at his answer, they fell silent.
27 προσελθοντες δε τινες των σαδδουκαιων οι αντιλεγοντες αναστασιν μη ειναι επηρωτησαν αυτον
Some of the Sadducees came to him, those who deny that there is a resurrection.
28 λεγοντες διδασκαλε μωσης εγραψεν ημιν εαν τινος αδελφος αποθανη εχων γυναικα και ουτος ατεκνος αποθανη ινα ο αδελφος αυτου λαβη την γυναικα και εξαναστηση σπερμα τω αδελφω αυτου
They asked him, "Teacher, Moses 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.
29 επτα ουν αδελφοι ησαν και ο πρωτος λαβων γυναικα απεθανεν ατεκνος
There were therefore seven brothers. The first took a wife, and died childless.
30 και ελαβεν ο δευτερος την γυναικα και ουτος απεθανεν ατεκνος
The second and
31 και ο τριτος ελαβεν αυτην ωσαυτως δε και οι επτα ου κατελιπον τεκνα και απεθανον
the third took her, and likewise the seven all left no children, and died.
32 υστερον δε παντων απεθανεν και η γυνη
Afterward the woman also died.
33 εν τη ουν αναστασει τινος αυτων γινεται γυνη οι γαρ επτα εσχον αυτην γυναικα
Therefore in the resurrection whose wife of them will she be? For the seven had her as a wife."
34 και αποκριθεις ειπεν αυτοις ο ιησους οι υιοι του αιωνος τουτου γαμουσιν και εκγαμισκονται (aiōn g165)
Yeshua said to them, "The people of this age marry and are given to someone to marry. (aiōn g165)
35 οι δε καταξιωθεντες του αιωνος εκεινου τυχειν και της αναστασεως της εκ νεκρων ουτε γαμουσιν ουτε εκγαμιζονται (aiōn g165)
But those who are regarded as worthy of a place in that age and the resurrection from the dead neither marry nor are given to someone to marry. (aiōn g165)
36 ουτε γαρ αποθανειν ετι δυνανται ισαγγελοι γαρ εισιν και υιοι εισιν του θεου της αναστασεως υιοι οντες
For they cannot die any more, for they are like the angels, and are children of God, being children of the resurrection.
37 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
But that the dead are raised, even Moses showed at the bush, when he called the Lord 'The God of Abraham, and the God of Isaac, and the God of Jacob.'
38 θεος δε ουκ εστιν νεκρων αλλα ζωντων παντες γαρ αυτω ζωσιν
Now he is not the God of the dead, but of the living, for all are alive to him."
39 αποκριθεντες δε τινες των γραμματεων ειπον διδασκαλε καλως ειπας
Some of the scribes answered, "Teacher, you speak well."
40 ουκετι δε ετολμων επερωταν αυτον ουδεν
They did not dare to ask him any more questions.
41 ειπεν δε προς αυτους πως λεγουσιν τον χριστον υιον δαυιδ ειναι
He said to them, "Why do they say that the Messiah is David's son?
42 και αυτος δαυιδ λεγει εν βιβλω ψαλμων ειπεν ο κυριος τω κυριω μου καθου εκ δεξιων μου
David himself says in the scroll of Psalms, 'The Lord said to my Lord, "Sit at my right hand,
43 εως αν θω τους εχθρους σου υποποδιον των ποδων σου
until I make your enemies the footstool of your feet."'
44 δαυιδ ουν κυριον αυτον καλει και πως υιος αυτου εστιν
"David therefore calls him Lord, so how is he his son?"
45 ακουοντος δε παντος του λαου ειπεν τοις μαθηταις αυτου
In the hearing of all the people, he said to his talmidim,
46 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
"Beware of the scribes, who like to walk in long robes, and love greetings in the marketplaces, the best seats in the synagogues, and the best places at feasts;
47 οι κατεσθιουσιν τας οικιας των χηρων και προφασει μακρα προσευχονται ουτοι ληψονται περισσοτερον κριμα
who devour widows' houses, and for a pretense make long prayers: these will receive greater condemnation."
