Κατα Λουκαν 20
1 και εγενετο εν μια των ημερων εκεινων διδασκοντος αυτου τον λαον εν τω ιερω και ευαγγελιζομενου επεστησαν οι αρχιερεις και οι γραμματεις συν τοις πρεσβυτεροις
And it came to pass on one of those days, as he was teaching the people in the temple, and preaching the good news, the chief priests and the scholars with the elders stood near.
2 και ειπον προς αυτον λεγοντες ειπε ημιν εν ποια εξουσια ταυτα ποιεις η τις εστιν ο δους σοι την εξουσιαν ταυτην
And they spoke, saying to him, Tell us, by what authority are thou doing these things? Or who is he who gave thee this authority?
3 αποκριθεις δε ειπεν προς αυτους ερωτησω υμας καγω ενα λογον και ειπατε μοι
And having answered, he said to them, I also will ask you one word, and ye tell me.
4 το βαπτισμα ιωαννου εξ ουρανου ην η εξ ανθρωπων
The immersion of John, was it from heaven or from men?
5 οι δε συνελογισαντο προς εαυτους λεγοντες οτι εαν ειπωμεν εξ ουρανου ερει δια τι ουν ουκ επιστευσατε αυτω
And they reasoned with themselves, saying, If we should say, From heaven, he will say, Why did ye 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 men, all the people will stone us, for they are convinced John is a prophet.
7 και απεκριθησαν μη ειδεναι ποθεν
And they replied not to know from where.
8 και ο ιησους ειπεν αυτοις ουδε εγω λεγω υμιν εν ποια εξουσια ταυτα ποιω
And Jesus said to them, Neither do I tell you by what authority I do these things.
9 ηρξατο δε προς τον λαον λεγειν την παραβολην ταυτην ανθρωπος τις εφυτευσεν αμπελωνα και εξεδοτο αυτον γεωργοις και απεδημησεν χρονους ικανους
And he began to speak this parable to the people. A man planted a vineyard, and leased it to farmers, and went abroad for a considerable time.
10 και εν καιρω απεστειλεν προς τους γεωργους δουλον ινα απο του καρπου του αμπελωνος δωσιν αυτω οι δε γεωργοι δειραντες αυτον εξαπεστειλαν κενον
And at the season he sent a bondman to the farmers, so that they would give him from the fruit of the vineyard. But having beaten him, the farmers sent him away empty.
11 και προσεθετο πεμψαι ετερον δουλον οι δε κακεινον δειραντες και ατιμασαντες εξαπεστειλαν κενον
And he proceeded to send another bondman. And they, having beaten and shamefully treated, sent him also away empty.
12 και προσεθετο πεμψαι τριτον οι δε και τουτον τραυματισαντες εξεβαλον
And he proceeded to send a third. And they also having wounded this man, cast him out.
13 ειπεν δε ο κυριος του αμπελωνος τι ποιησω πεμψω τον υιον μου τον αγαπητον ισως τουτον ιδοντες εντραπησονται
And the lord of the vineyard said, What shall I do? I will send my beloved son. Perhaps they will be made ashamed after seeing this man.
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 deliberated among themselves, saying, This is the heir. Come, let us kill him, so that the inheritance may become ours.
15 και εκβαλοντες αυτον εξω του αμπελωνος απεκτειναν τι ουν ποιησει αυτοις ο κυριος του αμπελωνος
And having cast him outside of the vineyard, they 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. And having heard it, they said, May it not happen!
17 ο δε εμβλεψας αυτοις ειπεν τι ουν εστιν το γεγραμμενον τουτο λιθον ον απεδοκιμασαν οι οικοδομουντες ουτος εγενηθη εις κεφαλην γωνιας
But having looked upon them, he said, What then is this that is written, The stone that those who build rejected, this became the head of the corner?
18 πας ο πεσων επ εκεινον τον λιθον συνθλασθησεται εφ ον δ αν πεση λικμησει αυτον
Every man who falls on that stone will be broken, but on whomever it may fall, it will grind him to dust.
19 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 την παραβολην ταυτην ειπεν
And the chief priests and the scholars sought to throw hands on him in the same hour. And they were afraid, for they knew that he spoke 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
And having watched him, they sent forth insidious men pretending themselves to be righteous, so that they might take hold of his word, in order to deliver him up to the rule and to the 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
And they questioned him, saying, Teacher, we know that thou speak and teach rightly, and thou do not accept a personage, but teach the way of God in truth,
22 εξεστιν ημιν καισαρι φορον δουναι η ου
Is it permitted for us to give tribute to Caesar or not?
23 κατανοησας δε αυτων την πανουργιαν ειπεν προς αυτους τι με πειραζετε
But having perceived their craftiness, he said to them, Why do ye try me?
24 επιδειξατε μοι δηναριον τινος εχει εικονα και επιγραφην αποκριθεντες δε ειπον καισαρος
Display to me a denarius. Whose image and inscription has it? And having answered, they said, Caesar's.
25 ο δε ειπεν αυτοις αποδοτε τοινυν τα καισαρος καισαρι και τα του θεου τω θεω
And he said to them, Then render the things of Caesar to Caesar, and the things of God to God.
26 και ουκ ισχυσαν επιλαβεσθαι αυτου ρηματος εναντιον του λαου και θαυμασαντες επι τη αποκρισει αυτου εσιγησαν
And they were unable to lay hold of his word before the people. And having marveled at his answer, they were silent.
27 προσελθοντες δε τινες των σαδδουκαιων οι αντιλεγοντες αναστασιν μη ειναι επηρωτησαν αυτον
And some of the Sadducees having approached, those who say there is no resurrection, they questioned him,
28 λεγοντες διδασκαλε μωσης 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
saying, Teacher, Moses wrote to us, if any brother dies, having a wife, and this man dies childless, that his brother should take his wife, and raise up seed to his brother.
29 επτα ουν αδελφοι ησαν και ο πρωτος λαβων γυναικα απεθανεν ατεκνος
There were therefore seven brothers. And the first having taken a wife, died childless.
30 και ελαβεν ο δευτερος την γυναικα και ουτος απεθανεν ατεκνος
And the second took the woman, and this man died childless.
31 και ο τριτος ελαβεν αυτην ωσαυτως δε και οι επτα {VAR2: και } ου κατελιπον τεκνα και απεθανον
And the third likewise took her, and likewise also the seven; they left behind no children, and died.
32 υστερον {VAR1: δε } παντων απεθανεν και η γυνη
And last of all the woman also died.
33 εν τη ουν αναστασει τινος αυτων γινεται γυνη οι γαρ επτα εσχον αυτην γυναικα
In the resurrection therefore whose wife of them does she become? For the seven had her as wife.
34 και αποκριθεις ειπεν αυτοις ο ιησους οι υιοι του αιωνος τουτου γαμουσιν και εκγαμισκονται (aiōn g165)
And having answered, Jesus said to them, The sons of this age marry, and are given in marriage, (aiōn g165)
35 οι δε καταξιωθεντες του αιωνος εκεινου τυχειν και της αναστασεως της εκ νεκρων ουτε γαμουσιν ουτε εκγαμισκονται (aiōn g165)
but those who are considered worthy to attain to that age, and the resurrection from the dead, neither marry, nor are given in marriage. (aiōn g165)
36 ουτε γαρ αποθανειν ετι δυνανται ισαγγελοι γαρ εισιν και υιοι εισιν του θεου της αναστασεως υιοι οντες
For neither can they die any more, for they are like the agents, and are sons of God, being sons of the resurrection.
37 οτι δε εγειρονται οι νεκροι και μωσης 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 calls 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 God of the dead, but of the living, for all live to him.
39 αποκριθεντες δε τινες των γραμματεων ειπον διδασκαλε καλως ειπας
And some of the scholars having answered, they said, Teacher, thou said well.
40 ουκετι δε ετολμων επερωταν αυτον ουδεν
For they no longer dared to question him anything.
41 ειπεν δε προς αυτους πως λεγουσιν τον χριστον υιον δαβιδ ειναι
And he said to them, How do they say the Christ is David's son?
42 και αυτος δαβιδ λεγει εν βιβλω ψαλμων ειπεν ο κυριος τω κυριω μου καθου εκ δεξιων μου
Even David himself says in the book of Psalms, The Lord said to my Lord, Sit thou at my right hand,
43 εως αν θω τους εχθρους σου υποποδιον των ποδων σου
until I will place thine enemies a footstool of thy feet.
44 δαβιδ ουν κυριον αυτον καλει και πως υιος αυτου εστιν
David therefore calls him Lord, and how is he his son?
45 ακουοντος δε παντος του λαου ειπεν τοις μαθηταις αυτου
And while all the people were listening, he said to his disciples,
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 scholars, who desire to walk around in long robes, and love greetings in the marketplaces, and chief seats in the synagogues, and places of honor at the feasts,
47 οι κατεσθιουσιν τας οικιας των χηρων και προφασει μακρα προσευχονται ουτοι ληψονται περισσοτερον κριμα
who devour widows' houses, and in pretence make long prayers. These will receive greater damnation.
