Mark 12
1 Na Jesus el kaskas nu selos ke kas in pupulyuk ac fahk, “Sie mwet el yukwiya sie ima in grape. El orala kalkal se rauneak, ac pukanak luf in itat wain se, ac musaela nien soan se. Na el sang ima se inge nu sin kutu mwet in karingin, na el som liki acn sel nu in sie pac facl.
And he gave them teaching in the form of stories. A man had a vine-garden planted, and put a wall about it, and made a place for crushing out the wine, and put up a tower, and let it out to field-workers, and went into another country.
2 Ac ke sun pacl in telani fokin grape uh, el supwala sie mwet kulansap nu yurin mwet karingin ima sac, tuh elan eis selos ip lal ke kosrani lun grape uh.
And when the time came, he sent a servant to get from the workmen some of the fruit of the garden.
3 Ac mwet karingin ima sac elos sruokilya, srunglul, ac folokunulla pusin po.
And they took him, and gave him blows, and sent him away with nothing.
4 Na mwet kacto sac el sifil supwala sie pac mwet kulansap; ac mwet liyaung nien grape uh elos kanteya sifal, ac oru ma na koluk nu sel.
And again he sent to them another servant; and they gave him wounds on the head, and were very cruel to him.
5 Na el supwala pac sie mwet kulansap, ac elos unilya. Elos oru ouinge pac nu sin mwet puspis. Elos puok kutu ac uniya kutu.
And he sent another; and they put him to death: and a number of others, whipping some, and putting some to death.
6 Ac mwet sefanna lula yorol, pa wen kulo se natul. Na tok, el supwala wen natul nu sin mwet liyaung nien grape uh. Ac el sifacna nunku in el, ‘Nga lulalfongi mu elos ac fah sunakin wen nutik.’
He still had one, a dearly loved son: he sent him last to them, saying, They will have respect for my son.
7 Tusruktu mwet liyaung nien grape uh fahk nu sin sie sin sie, ‘Wen se nutin mwet kacto sac pa inge. Fahsru kut unilya, ac ima se inge fah ma lac lasr!’
But those workmen said among themselves, This is he who will one day be the owner of the property; come, let us put him to death, and the heritage will be ours.
8 Ouinge elos sruokilya, unilya ac sisla manol liki nien grape uh.”
And they took him and put him to death, pushing his body out of the garden.
9 Ac Jesus el siyuk, “Na mea mwet se la nien grape uh fah oru? El fah tuku ac onelosi, ac sang nien grape uh nu sin kutu pac mwet in liyaung.
What then will the master of the garden do? He will come and put the workmen to death, and will give the garden into the hands of others.
10 Ya kowos soenna rit Ma Simusla se inge? ‘Eot se ma mwet musa uh sisla, Pa yohk sripa oemeet uh.
Have you not seen this which is in the Writings: The stone which the builders put on one side, the same was made the chief stone of the building:
11 Leum pa oru ma inge uh; Fuka lupan usrngukiya in liye!”
This was the Lord's doing, and it is a wonder in our eyes?
12 Mwet fulat lun mwet Jew inge srike in sruokilya Jesus ke sripen elos etu mu el fahk pupulyuk inge in lainulos. Tuh elos sangeng sin un mwet puspis, ouinge elos som lukel.
And they made attempts to take him; but they were in fear of the people, because they saw that the story was against them; and they went away from him.
13 Kutu sin mwet Pharisee ac kutu mwet in u lal Herod supweyukla nu yurin Jesus in tuh srifal ke kutu mwe siyuk.
Then they sent to him certain of the Pharisees and the Herodians, so that they might make use of his words to take him by a trick.
14 Ke elos tuku nu yorol elos fahk, “Mwet Luti, kut etu lah kom fahk ma pwaye ac tia suk lah mea mwet uh ac nunku kac. Kom tia kolak sin kutena mwet, a kom luti ma pwaye ke lungse lun God. Fahk nu sesr, ya ac lain Ma Sap lasr kut in akfalye tax nu sin Caesar, tokosra fulat in acn Rome?
And when they had come, they said to him, Master, we are certain that you are true, and have no fear of anyone: you have no respect for a man's position, but you are teaching the true way of God: Is it right to give taxes to Caesar or not?
15 Ya kut ac sang, ku tia?” Tuh Jesus el etu kutasrik lalos, na el topuk ac fahk nu selos, “Efu kowos ku srike in srifeyu? Use sie ipin mani silver an nu sik ngan liye.”
Are we to give or not to give? But he, conscious of their false hearts, said to them, Why do you put me to the test? give me a penny, so that I may see it.
16 Ac elos use, na el fahk nu selos, “Mutun su kac inge, ac inen su inge?” Na elos topuk ac fahk, “Ma lun Caesar.”
And they gave him one. And he said to them, Whose is this image and name on it? And they said to him, Caesar's.
17 Ouinge Jesus el fahk nu selos, “Na fin pa ingan, sang nu sin Caesar ma lun Caesar, ac nu sin God ma lun God.” Ac elos arulana fwefela sel.
And Jesus said to them, Give to Caesar the things which are Caesar's, and to God the things which are God's. And they were full of wonder at him.
18 Na kutu mwet Sadducee su fahk mu wangin sifil moulyak liki misa, elos tuku nu yurin Jesus ac fahk,
And there came to him Sadducees, who say there is no coming back from the dead; and they put a question to him, saying,
19 “Mwet Luti, Moses el simusla sie ma sap nu sesr fahk mu, ‘Sie mukul fin misa, ac wangin tulik natul nu sin mutan kial, na sie ma lel fah eis katinmas sacn kial ac eltal fah oswela tulik su ac fah pangpang ma nutin ma lel su misa.’
Master, in the law Moses says, If a man's brother comes to his end, and has a wife still living and no child, it is right for his brother to take his wife, and get a family for his brother.
20 Tuh oasr tamulel itkosr, ac el su matu el payuk nwe misa a wangin tulik natul.
There were seven brothers: and the first took a wife, and at his death there were no offspring;
21 Na el se akluo el eis katinmas sac kial, ac el oayapa misa a wangin tulik natul. Sikyak ouinge pac nu sin el su aktolu,
And the second took her, and at his death there were no offspring; and the third the same:
22 oayapa tamulel wial ah nufon. Kewana marut nu sin katinmas sac, ac elos nukewa misa wangin tulik natulos. Na tok, katinmas sac oayapa misa.
And all the seven had no seed. Last of all the woman herself came to her death.
23 Ke len in sifil moulyak lun mwet nukewa, na katinmas sac ac fah ma kien su, ke tamulel itkosr ah kewa tuh payuk sel ah?”
In the future life, when they come back from the dead, whose wife will she be? for the seven had her for a wife.
24 Jesus el topuk ac fahk, “Kowos arulana tafongla! Ac kowos etu lah efu? Ma ke kowos tia etu ke Ma Simusla ku ke ku lun God.
Jesus said to them, Is not this the reason for your error, that you have no knowledge of the holy Writings or of the power of God?
25 Tuh ke mwet misa uh ac sifil moulyak, elos ac oana lipufan inkusrao, ac elos ac tia payuk.
When they come back from the dead, they do not get married, but are like the angels in heaven.
26 Ac funu ke moulyak lun mwet misa, ya kowos soenna rit in book lal Moses ke ma sikyak ke e se firir in kupo sac? Simla mu God El fahk nu sel Moses ouinge, ‘Nga God lal Abraham, God lal Isaac, ac God lal Jacob.’
But as to the dead coming back to life; have you not seen in the book of Moses, about the burning thorn-tree, how God said to him, I am the God of Abraham, and the God of Isaac, and the God of Jacob?
27 Kalmeya pa El God lun mwet moul, ac El tia God lun mwet misa. Kowos arulana tafongla!”
He is not the God of the dead, but of the living: you are greatly in error.
28 Ac sie sin mwet luti Ma Sap el wi muta we, ac lohng ke elos asiyuki. El liye tuh arulana wo top lal Jesus nu sin mwet Sadducee, na el kalukyang nu yorol ke sie mwe siyuk ac fahk, “Pia ma sap su yohk oemeet ke Ma Sap uh?”
And one of the scribes came, and hearing their argument together, and seeing that he had given them a good answer, put the question to him, Which law is the first of all?
29 Jesus el topuk ac fahk, “Ma Sap se ma yohk emeet pa inge: ‘Lohng, O Israel. Leum God lasr, El God sefanna.
Jesus said in answer, The first is, Give ear, O Israel: The Lord our God is one Lord;
30 Ac kom fah lungse Leum God lom ke insiom kewa, ac ke ngunum kewa, ac ke nunkom kewa, ac ke ku lom kewa.’
And you are to have love for the Lord your God with all your heart, and with all your soul, and with all your mind, and with all your strength.
31 Ac ma sap se akluo pa inge: ‘Kom fah lungse mwet tulan lom oana ke kom lungse kom sifacna.’ Wangin sie pac ma sap yohk liki ma luo inge.”
The second is this, Have love for your neighbour as for yourself. There is no other law greater than these.
32 Na mwet luti sac fahk nu sin Jesus, “Pwaye sum, Mwet Luti! Kom fahk suwohs, Leum God El mukena pa God, ac wangin pac sie god saya.
And the scribe said to him, Truly, Master, you have well said that he is one, and there is no other but he:
33 Ac mwet se enenu in lungse God ke insial kewa, ke nunkal kewa, ac ke ku lal kewa; ac el enenu pac in lungse mwet tulan lal oana ke el lungse el sifacna. Wo in akos ma sap luo inge liki na in kisakin kosro fin loang uh, ku oru pac kutu mwe kisa saya nu sin God.”
And to have love for him with all the heart, and with all the mind, and with all the strength, and to have the same love for his neighbour as for himself, is much more than all forms of offerings.
34 Ac ke Jesus el liye tuh el topuk suwohs, el fahk nu sel, “Kom tiana loesla liki Tokosrai lun God.” Tukun ma inge, wangin mwet pulaik in sifil siyuk kutena ma sel.
And when Jesus saw that he gave a wise answer, he said to him, You are not far from the kingdom of God. And every man after that was in fear of questioning him any more.
35 Ke Jesus el luti in Tempul, el srukak kusen siyuk se inge: “Fuka tuh mwet luti Ma Sap elos fahk mu Christ el wen natul David?
And Jesus, when he was teaching in the Temple, said, How do the scribes say that the Christ is the Son of David?
36 Ngun Mutal tuh akkaskasyal David, ac el fahk ouinge: ‘Leum God El tuh fahk nu sin Leum luk: Muta siskuk layot Nwe ke nga filiya mwet lokoalok lom ye niom.’
David himself said in the Holy Spirit, The Lord said to my Lord, Be seated at my right hand, till I put those who are against you under your feet.
37 David el sifacna pangnol ‘Leum’; na fuka tuh Christ elan wen natul David?” Oasr sie un mwet na pus su engan in lohng luti lal Jesus.
David himself gives him the name of Lord; and how then is he his son? And the common people gave ear to him gladly.
38 Ac ke el lotelos, el fahk, “Liyekowosyang liki mwet luti Ma Sap, su nokomang nuknuk loeloes ke elos fufahsryesr inmasrlon mwet uh, ac kena tuh mwet uh in akfulatyalos ac paingulos ke nien kuka;
And in his teaching he said, Be on your watch against the scribes, whose pleasure it is to go about in long robes and be respected in the market-places,
39 su sulela nien muta fulat in iwen lolngok ac acn ma wo emeet ke pacl in kufwa.
And to have the chief seats in the Synagogues and the first places at feasts;
40 Elos aklalfonye katinmas ac pisrala ma lalos, ac oayapa oru pre loeloes lalos mwe na lumah. Ke ma inge ac fah akyokyeyuk mwe kai nu selos in arulana upa!”
Who take away the property of widows, and before the eyes of men make long prayers; these will be judged more hardly.
41 Ke Jesus el muta apkuran nu ke nien eisani mani in Tempul, el tuni ke mwet uh ac filiya mani lalos uh. Mwet kasrup puspis elos filiya mani na yohk.
And he took a seat by the place where the money was kept, and saw how the people put money into the boxes: and a number who had wealth put in much.
42 Na sie katinmas su sukasrup el tuku ac filiya luo ipin mani srisrik, sununna cent srusra se.
And there came a poor widow, and she put in two little bits of money, which make a farthing.
43 Na Jesus el pangonma mwet tumal lutlut ac fahk nu selos, “Pwayena nga fahk nu suwos, mwe sang ma katinmas sukasrup se inge el filiya in nien mani uh arulana yohk liki mwe sang lun mwet ngia nukewa.
And he made his disciples come to him, and said to them, Truly I say to you, This poor widow has put in more than all those who are putting money into the box:
44 Tuh elos nukewa filiya ma elos srela liki ma puspis lalos, a el, el nwe sukasrup, el sang ma lal nukewa, aok nufon ma oasr yorol.”
Because they all put in something out of what they had no need for; but she out of her need put in all she had, even all her living.
