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 to them in parables: A man planted a vineyard, and set a hedge about it, and dug a wine-vat, and built a tower; and let it out to husbandmen, and went abroad.
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 fruits of the vineyard.
3 Qui apprehensum eum ceciderunt, et dimiserunt vacuum.
And they took him, and beat him, and sent him away empty-handed.
4 Et iterum misit ad illos alium servum: et illum in capite vulneraverunt, et contumeliis affecerunt.
And again he sent to them another servant; and him they wounded in the head, and treated shamefully.
5 Et rursum alium misit, et illum occiderunt: et plures alios: quosdam caedentes, alios vero occidentes.
And 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.
Still he had one beloved son; he sent him last to them, saying, They will respect 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 will 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 will the lord of the vineyard do? He will come and destroy the husbandmen, and will give the vineyard to 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, the same hath become the cornerstone;
11 A Domino factum est istud, et est mirabile in oculis nostris?
from the Lord did this come, and it is marvelous 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 seize him, but feared the multitude; for they knew that he spoke the parable against them. And they left him, and went away.
13 Et mittunt ad eum quosdam ex Pharisaeis, et Herodianis, ut eum caperent in verbo.
And they send to him some of the Pharisees and of the Herodians, to ensnare him in speech.
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 they come and say to him, Teacher, we know that thou art true, and carest for no one; for thou regardest not the person of men, but teachest the way of God in truth. Is it lawful to give tribute to Caesar, 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, seeing their hypocrisy, said to them, Why are ye trying me? Bring me a denary, 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 one. And he saith to them, Whose is this image and inscription? And they said to him, Caesar's.
17 Respondens autem Iesus dixit illis: Reddite igitur quae sunt Caesaris, Caesari: et quae sunt Dei, Deo. Et mirabantur super eo.
And Jesus said to them, Render to Caesar the things that are Caesar's, and to God the things that are God's. And they marveled at him exceedingly.
18 Et venerunt ad eum Sadducaei, qui dicunt resurrectionem non esse: et interrogabant eum dicentes:
Then come to him Sadducees, who say that 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.
Teacher, Moses wrote to us, “If a man's brother die, and leave a wife and no child, his brother shall take his wife, and raise up seed to his brother.”
20 Septem ergo fratres erant: et primus accepit uxorem, et mortuus est non relicto semine.
There were seven brothers; 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, leaving no seed; and the third likewise.
22 Et acceperunt eam similiter septem: et non reliquerunt semen. Novissima omnium defuncta est et mulier.
And the seven left no seed. Last of all, the woman also died.
23 In resurrectione ergo cum resurrexerint, cuius de his erit uxor? septem enim habuerunt eam uxorem.
In the resurrection, when they have risen, of which of them will she be wife? for the seven had her for a wife.
24 Et respondens Iesus, ait illis: Nonne ideo erratis, non scientes Scripturas, neque virtutem Dei?
Jesus said to them, Do ye not err on this account, that ye know not the Scriptures, nor the power of God?
25 Cum enim a mortuis resurrexerint, neque nubent, neque nubentur, sed erunt sicut angeli Dei in caelis.
For when they have risen from the dead, they neither marry, nor are given in marriage, but are as the angels 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 concerning the dead, that they are raised, have ye not read in the book of Moses, at the Bush, how God spoke to 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 of the living. Ye err greatly.
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 up, having heard them reasoning together, and perceiving that he had answered them well, asked him, Which commandment is first of all?
29 Iesus autem respondit ei: Quia primum omnium mandatum est: Audi Israel, Dominus Deus tuus, Deus unus est:
Jesus answered, The first 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.”
31 Secundum autem simile est illi: Diliges proximum tuum tamquam teipsum. Maius horum aliud mandatum non est.
The second is this: “Thou shalt love thy neighbor as thyself.” There is no 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 to him, In truth, Teacher, thou hast well said, that He is one, and that there is no 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 strength, and to love one's neighbor as one's self, is more than all the whole burnt-offerings and the sacrifices.
34 Iesus autem videns quod sapienter respondisset, dixit illi: Non es longe a regno Dei. Et nemo iam audebat eum interrogare.
And Jesus, perceiving that he answered wisely, said to him, Thou art not far from the kingdom of God. And after this no one dared to question him.
35 Et respondens Iesus dicebat, docens in templo: Quomodo dicunt Scribae Christum filium esse David?
And Jesus answered and said, while he was teaching in the temple, How is it that the scribes say, that the Christ is David's son?
36 Ipse enim David dicit in Spiritu sancto: Dixit Dominus Domino meo, Sede a dextris meis, donec ponam inimicos tuos scabellum pedum tuorum.
David himself said in the Holy Spirit, “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 himself calleth him lord; and how can he be his son? And the great multitude 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 in his teaching, Beware of the scribes, who like to walk about in long robes, and love salutations in the markets,
39 et in primis cathedris sedere in synagogis, et primos discubitus in coenis:
and the chief seats in the synagogues, and the first places at feasts;
40 qui devorant domos viduarum sub obtentu prolixae orationis: hi accipient prolixius iudicium.
who devour widows' houses, and for a pretence make long prayers. These will receive a far greater condemnation.
41 Et sedens Iesus contra gazophylacium, aspiciebat quomodo turba iactaret aes in gazophylacium, et multi divites iactabant multa.
And he sat over against the treasury, and was beholding how the people cast money into the treasury. And many that were rich were casting in much.
42 Cum venisset autem vidua una pauper, misit duo minuta, quod est quadrans,
And a certain poor widow came and 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 to him his disciples, and said to them, Truly do I say to you, that this poor widow hath cast in more than all those who are casting 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 they all threw in of their abundance; but she out of her penury threw in all that she had, her whole living.
