Marcum 12
1 Et coepit illis in parabolis loqui: Vineam pastinavit homo, et circumdedit sepem, et fodit lacum, et aedificavit turrim, et locavit eam agricolis, et peregre profectus est.
And he began to speak unto them by parables. A [certain] man planted a vineyard, and set an hedge about [it], and digged [a place for] the winefat, and built a tower, and let it out to husbandmen, and went into a far country.
2 Et misit ad agricolas in tempore servum ut ab agricolis acciperet de fructu vineae.
And at the season he sent to the husbandmen a servant, that he might receive from the husbandmen of the fruit of the vineyard.
3 Qui apprehensum eum ceciderunt, et dimiserunt vacuum.
And they caught [him], and beat him, and sent [him] away empty.
4 Et iterum misit ad illos alium servum: et illum in capite vulneraverunt, et contumeliis affecerunt.
And again he sent unto them another servant; and at him they cast stones, and wounded [him] in the head, and sent [him] away shamefully handled.
5 Et rursum alium misit, et illum occiderunt: et plures alios: quosdam caedentes, alios vero occidentes.
And again he sent another; and him they killed, and many others; beating some, and killing some.
6 Adhuc ergo unum habens filium charissimum: et illum misit ad eos novissimum, dicens: Quia reverebuntur filium meum.
Having yet therefore one son, his wellbeloved, he sent him also last unto them, saying, They will reverence my son.
7 Coloni autem dixerunt ad invicem: Hic est heres: venite, occidamus eum: et nostra erit hereditas.
But those husbandmen said among themselves, This is the heir; come, let us kill him, and the inheritance shall be ours.
8 Et apprehendentes eum, occiderunt: et eiecerunt extra vineam.
And they took him, and killed [him], and cast [him] out of the vineyard.
9 Quid ergo faciet Dominus vineae? Veniet, et perdet colonos: et dabit vineam aliis.
What shall therefore the lord of the vineyard do? he will come and destroy the husbandmen, and will give the vineyard unto others.
10 Nec scripturam hanc legistis: Lapidem, quem reprobaverunt aedificantes, hic factus est in caput anguli:
And have ye not read this scripture; The stone which the builders rejected is become the head of the corner:
11 A Domino factum est istud, et est mirabile in oculis nostris?
This was the Lord’s doing, and it is marvellous in our eyes?
12 Et quaerebant eum tenere: et timuerunt turbam. cognoverunt enim quoniam ad eos parabolam hanc dixerit. Et relicto eo abierunt.
And they sought to lay hold on him, but feared the people: for they knew that he had spoken the parable against them: and they left him, and went their way.
13 Et mittunt ad eum quosdam ex Pharisaeis, et Herodianis, ut eum caperent in verbo.
And they send unto him certain of the Pharisees and of the Herodians, to catch him in [his] words.
14 Qui venientes dicunt ei: Magister, scimus quia verax es, et non curas quemquam: nec enim vides in faciem hominum, sed in veritate viam Dei doces. licet dare tributum Caesari, an non dabimus?
And when they were come, they say unto him, Master, we know that thou art true, and carest for no man: for thou regardest not the person of men, but teachest the way of God in truth: Is it lawful to give tribute to Cæsar, or not?
15 Qui sciens versutiam illorum, ait illos: Quid me tentatis? afferte mihi denarium ut videam.
Shall we give, or shall we not give? But he, knowing their hypocrisy, said unto them, Why tempt ye me? bring me a penny, that I may see [it].
16 At illi attulerunt ei. Et ait illis: Cuius est imago haec, et inscriptio? Dicunt ei: Caesaris.
And they brought [it]. And he saith unto them, Whose [is] this image and superscription? And they said unto him, Cæsar’s.
17 Respondens autem Iesus dixit illis: Reddite igitur quae sunt Caesaris, Caesari: et quae sunt Dei, Deo. Et mirabantur super eo.
And Jesus answering said unto them, Render to Cæsar the things that are Cæsar’s, and to God the things that are God’s. And they marvelled at him.
18 Et venerunt ad eum Sadducaei, qui dicunt resurrectionem non esse: et interrogabant eum dicentes:
Then come unto him the Sadducees, which say there is no resurrection; and they asked him, saying,
19 Magister, Moyses nobis scripsit, ut si cuius frater mortuus fuerit, et dimiserit uxorem, et filios non reliquerit, accipiat frater eius uxorem ipsius, et resuscitet semen fratri suo.
Master, Moses wrote unto us, If a man’s brother die, and leave [his] wife [behind him], and leave no children, that his brother should take his wife, and raise up seed unto his brother.
20 Septem ergo fratres erant: et primus accepit uxorem, et mortuus est non relicto semine.
Now there were seven brethren: and the first took a wife, and dying left no seed.
21 Et secundus accepit eam, et mortuus est: et nec iste reliquit semen. Et tertius similiter.
And the second took her, and died, neither left he any seed: and the third likewise.
22 Et acceperunt eam similiter septem: et non reliquerunt semen. Novissima omnium defuncta est et mulier.
And the seven had her, and left no seed: last of all the woman died also.
23 In resurrectione ergo cum resurrexerint, cuius de his erit uxor? septem enim habuerunt eam uxorem.
In the resurrection therefore, when they shall rise, whose wife shall she be of them? for the seven had her to wife.
24 Et respondens Iesus, ait illis: Nonne ideo erratis, non scientes Scripturas, neque virtutem Dei?
And Jesus answering said unto them, Do ye not therefore err, because ye know not the scriptures, neither the power of God?
25 Cum enim a mortuis resurrexerint, neque nubent, neque nubentur, sed erunt sicut angeli Dei in caelis.
For when they shall rise from the dead, they neither marry, nor are given in marriage; but are as the angels which are in heaven.
26 De mortuis autem quod resurgant, non legistis in libro Moysi, super rubum quomodo dixerit illi Deus, inquiens: Ego sum Deus Abraham, et Deus Isaac, et Deus Iacob?
And as touching the dead, that they rise: have ye not read in the book of Moses, how in the bush God spake unto him, saying, I [am] the God of Abraham, and the God of Isaac, and the God of Jacob?
27 Non est Deus mortuorum, sed vivorum. Vos ergo multum erratis.
He is not the God of the dead, but the God of the living: ye therefore do greatly err.
28 Et accessit unus de Scribis, qui audierat illos conquirentes, et videns quoniam bene illis responderit, interrogavit eum quod esset primum omnium mandatum.
And one of the scribes came, and having heard them reasoning together, and perceiving that he had answered them well, asked him, Which is the first commandment of all?
29 Iesus autem respondit ei: Quia primum omnium mandatum est: Audi Israel, Dominus Deus tuus, Deus unus est:
And Jesus answered him, The first of all the commandments [is], Hear, O Israel; The Lord our God is one Lord:
30 et diliges Dominum Deum tuum ex tota corde tuo, et ex tota anima tua, et ex tota mente tua, et ex tota virtute tua. Hoc est primum mandatum.
And thou shalt love the Lord thy God with all thy heart, and with all thy soul, and with all thy mind, and with all thy strength: this [is] the first commandment.
31 Secundum autem simile est illi: Diliges proximum tuum tamquam teipsum. Maius horum aliud mandatum non est.
And the second [is] like, [namely] this, Thou shalt love thy neighbour as thyself. There is none other commandment greater than these.
32 Et ait illi Scriba: Bene Magister, in veritate dixisti, quia unus est Deus, et non est alius praeter eum.
And the scribe said unto him, Well, Master, thou hast said the truth: for there is one God; and there is none other but he:
33 Et ut diligatur ex toto corde, et ex toto intellectu, et ex tota anima, et ex tota fortitudine: et diligere proximum tamquam seipsum, maius est omnibus holocaustomatibus, et sacrificiis.
And to love him with all the heart, and with all the understanding, and with all the soul, and with all the strength, and to love [his] neighbour as himself, is more than all whole burnt offerings and sacrifices.
34 Iesus autem videns quod sapienter respondisset, dixit illi: Non es longe a regno Dei. Et nemo iam audebat eum interrogare.
And when Jesus saw that he answered discreetly, he said unto him, Thou art not far from the kingdom of God. And no man after that durst ask him [any question.]
35 Et respondens Iesus dicebat, docens in templo: Quomodo dicunt Scribae Christum filium esse David?
And Jesus answered and said, while he taught in the temple, How say the scribes that Christ is the Son of David?
36 Ipse enim David dicit in Spiritu sancto: Dixit Dominus Domino meo, Sede a dextris meis, donec ponam inimicos tuos scabellum pedum tuorum.
For David himself said by the Holy Ghost, The LORD said to my Lord, Sit thou on my right hand, till I make thine enemies thy footstool.
37 Ipse ergo David dicit eum Dominum, et unde est filius eius? Et multa turba eum libenter audivit.
David therefore himself calleth him Lord; and whence is he [then] his son? And the common people heard him gladly.
38 Et dicebat eis in doctrina sua: Cavete a Scribis, qui volunt in stolis ambulare, et salutari in foro,
And he said unto them in his doctrine, Beware of the scribes, which love to go in long clothing, and [love] salutations in the marketplaces,
39 et in primis cathedris sedere in synagogis, et primos discubitus in coenis:
And the chief seats in the synagogues, and the uppermost rooms at feasts:
40 qui devorant domos viduarum sub obtentu prolixae orationis: hi accipient prolixius iudicium.
Which devour widows’ houses, and for a pretence make long prayers: these shall receive greater damnation.
41 Et sedens Iesus contra gazophylacium, aspiciebat quomodo turba iactaret aes in gazophylacium, et multi divites iactabant multa.
And Jesus sat over against the treasury, and beheld how the people cast money into the treasury: and many that were rich cast in much.
42 Cum venisset autem vidua una pauper, misit duo minuta, quod est quadrans,
And there came a certain poor widow, and she threw in two mites, which make a farthing.
43 et convocans discipulos suos, ait illis: Amen dico vobis, quoniam vidua haec pauper plus omnibus misit, qui miserunt in gazophylacium.
And he called [unto him] his disciples, and saith unto them, Verily I say unto you, That this poor widow hath cast more in, than all they which have cast into the treasury:
44 Omnes enim ex eo, quod abundabat illis, miserunt: haec vero de penuria sua omnia quae habuit misit totum victum suum.
For all [they] did cast in of their abundance; but she of her want did cast in all that she had, [even] all her living.
