Luka 20
1 Chiengʼ moro achiel kane opuonjo ji ei laru mar hekalu, kendo noyalo Injili, jodolo madongo gi jopuonj chik, kaachiel kod jodongo nobiro ire.
One day as Jesus was teaching the people in the temple courts and proclaiming the gospel, the chief priests and scribes, together with the elders, came up to Him.
2 Negiwachone niya, “Nyiswa ni en teko mane ma itimogo gigi. En ngʼa momiyi teko ma in-goni?”
“Tell us,” they said, “by what authority are You doing these things, and who gave You this authority?”
3 Nodwoko niya, “An bende abiro penjou penjo. Nyisauru:
“I will also ask you a question,” Jesus replied. “Tell Me:
4 Uparo ni batiso mar Johana noa e polo koso noa kuom dhano?”
John’s baptism—was it from heaven, or from men?”
5 Negiwuoyo kuom wachni e kindgi giwegi kendo giwacho niya, “Ka wawacho ni, ‘Noa e polo,’ to obiro penjowa ni, ‘Angʼo momiyo nutamoru yie kuome?’
They deliberated among themselves and said, “If we say, ‘From heaven,’ He will ask, ‘Why did you not believe him?’
6 To ka wawacho ni, ‘Noa kuom dhano,’ ji duto biro chielowa gi kite, nikech ne giyie ni Johana ne en janabi.”
But if we say, ‘From men,’ all the people will stone us, for they are convinced that John was a prophet.”
7 Omiyo negidwoko niya, “Ok wangʼeyo kuma ne oaye.”
So they answered that they did not know where it was from.
8 Yesu nowachonegi niya, “An bende ok abi nyisou kuma agole teko ma atimogo gigi.”
And Jesus replied, “Neither will I tell you by what authority I am doing these things.”
9 Yesu nodhi nyime kogoyonegi ngero niya, “Ngʼat moro ne opidho mzabibu, ne okete e lwet jopur moko kendo nodhi kamoro kuom ndalo mangʼeny.
Then He proceeded to tell the people this parable: “A man planted a vineyard, rented it out to some tenants, and went away for a long time.
10 E kinde mar keyo nooro jatichne moro ir jopur puodho mondo gimiye olemo moko mane ochiek e puoth mzabibu. To jopur puodho nogoye kendo noriembe gi lwete nono.
At harvest time, he sent a servant to the tenants to collect his share of the fruit of the vineyard. But the tenants beat the servant and sent him away empty-handed.
11 Nochako ooro jatich machielo, to ngʼatni bende negigoyo kendo timo ne tim wichkuot, ka giriembe gi lwete nono.
So he sent another servant, but they beat him and treated him shamefully, sending him away empty-handed.
12 Nooro kendo ngʼat mar adek, to ne gihinye ma giriembe oko.
Then he sent a third, but they wounded him and threw him out.
13 “Eka wuon puoth mzabibu nowacho ni, ‘Abiro timo angʼo? Abiro oro wuoda mahero, kamoro dipo ginyalo winje!’
‘What shall I do?’ asked the owner of the vineyard. ‘I will send my beloved son. Perhaps they will respect him.’
14 “To ka jopur nonene, ne giwuoyo kuome kagiwacho ni, ‘Ma e jacham girkeni. Wanegeuru, to mondo girkeni odongʼnwa!’
But when the tenants saw the son, they discussed it among themselves and said, ‘This is the heir. Let us kill him, and the inheritance will be ours.’
15 Omiyo negidhire gigole oko mar puoth mzabibu kendo neginege. “Angʼo ma wuon puoth mzabibu notimnegi?
So they threw him out of the vineyard and killed him. What then will the owner of the vineyard do to them?
16 Obiro biro moneg jopur puodhogo mi ogol puoth mzabibuno e lwetgi mi enomi joma moko.” Kane ji owinjo wachno, negiwacho niya, “Mad gima kama kik timre!”
He will come and kill those tenants, and will give the vineyard to others.” And when the people heard this, they said, “May such a thing never happen!”
17 Yesu nongʼiyogi kochomo wangʼe kuomgi kendo nopenjo niya, “Kara ere tiend gino mondiki: “‘Kidi mane jogedo odagi osedoko kidi motegno moriwo kor ot.’
But Jesus looked directly at them and said, “Then what is the meaning of that which is written: ‘The stone the builders rejected has become the cornerstone’?
18 Ngʼato ka ngʼato mopodho kuom kidino notur matindo tindo, to ngʼatno ma kidino ogore kuome noregre ka buru.”
Everyone who falls on this stone will be broken to pieces, but he on whom it falls will be crushed.”
19 Jopuonj chik kod jodolo madongo nochako manyo yo mane ginyalo makego mapiyo, nikech negingʼeyo ni ogetogi kod ngeroni. To negiluoro ji.
When the scribes and chief priests realized that Jesus had spoken this parable against them, they sought to arrest Him that very hour. But they were afraid of the people.
20 Kane girite ma ok giweyone thuolo, negioro jombetre, mane wuondore ni gin jo-adiera maonge wach marach. Negigeno niginyalo mako Yesu e gimoro mowacho mondo omi gimake gitere e bwo loch kod teko mar ruoth.
So they watched Him closely and sent spies who pretended to be sincere. They were hoping to catch Him in His words in order to hand Him over to the rule and authority of the governor.
21 Omiyo jombetrego nopenje niya, “Japuonj, wangʼeyo ni iwacho kendo ipuonjo yor Nyasaye kaluwore gi adierane.
“Teacher,” they inquired, “we know that You speak and teach correctly. You show no partiality, but teach the way of God in accordance with the truth.
22 Bende en gima kare mondo wagol osuru ne Kaisar koso ok owinjore?”
Is it lawful for us to pay taxes to Caesar or not?”
23 Noneno obadho mane gichikone to nowachonegi niya,
But Jesus saw through their duplicity and said to them,
24 “Tangʼnauru pesa ma un-go. Kido kod nying man kuome gin mag ngʼa?” Negidwoko niya, “Mag Kaisar.”
“Show Me a denarius. Whose image and inscription are on it?” “Caesar’s,” they answered.
25 Nowachonegi niya, “Udwoko kare, koro miuru Kaisar gige Kaisar, to miuru Nyasaye gige Nyasaye.”
So Jesus told them, “Give to Caesar what is Caesar’s, and to God what is God’s.”
26 Ne ok ginyal make kuom gima nosewacho kanyo e nyim ji kendo ka giwuoro dwokone, negilingʼ thi.
And they were unable to trap Him in His words before the people; and amazed at His answer, they fell silent.
27 Jo-Sadukai moko, mawacho ni chier onge, nobiro ir Yesu kod penjo moro.
Then some of the Sadducees, who say there is no resurrection, came to question Him.
28 Negipenje niya, “Japuonj, Musa nondikonwa ni ka ngʼato owadgi otho moweyo dhako ma pod onge gi nyithindo, to ngʼatno nyaka kend dhako ma chwore othono mondo onywolnego nyithindo.
“Teacher,” they said, “Moses wrote for us that if a man’s brother dies and leaves a wife but no children, the man is to marry his brother’s widow and raise up offspring for him.
29 Koro ne nitie owete moko abiriyo. Wuowi makayo nokendo dhako, to notho ka ok onywolo nyathi.
Now there were seven brothers. The first one married a wife, but died childless.
30 Wuowi mar ariyo
Then the second
31 kendo bangʼe wuowi mar adek ne jokende, to machalre kamano nyaka wuowi mar abiriyo notho, ma ok ginywolo nyithindo.
and the third married the widow, and in the same way all seven died, leaving no children.
32 Gikone, dhakoni bende notho.
And last of all, the woman died.
33 Koro, chiengʼ chier dhakoni nobed chi ngʼa, nimar ji abiriyogo nokende?”
So then, in the resurrection, whose wife will she be? For all seven were married to her.”
Jesus answered, “The sons of this age marry and are given in marriage. (aiōn g165)
35 To jogo mowal ni owinjore mondo obed e piny mar tiengʼ mabiro bangʼ chier aa kuom joma otho ok nokendi kata nokendgi ngangʼ, (aiōn g165)
But those who are considered worthy to share in the age to come and in the resurrection from the dead will neither marry nor be given in marriage. (aiōn g165)
36 to bende ok ginitho kendo ngangʼ, nimar gichalo gi malaike. Gin nyithind Nyasaye, nikech gin nyithind chierno.
In fact, they can no longer die, because they are like the angels. And since they are sons of the resurrection, they are sons of God.
37 To kuom bungu maliel, Musa nonyiso bende ni joma otho chier, nimar oluongo Ruoth Nyasaye ni, ‘Nyasach Ibrahim, kendo Nyasach Isaka kod Nyasach Jakobo.’
Even Moses demonstrates that the dead are raised, in the passage about the burning bush. For he calls the Lord ‘the God of Abraham, the God of Isaac, and the God of Jacob.’
38 Ok en Nyasach joma otho, to mar joma ngima, nikech kuome ji duto ngima.”
He is not the God of the dead, but of the living, for to Him all are alive.”
39 Jopuonj chik moko nodwoko niya, “Iwacho maber, japuonj.”
Some of the scribes answered, “Teacher, You have spoken well!”
40 Omiyo onge ngʼato kata achiel manohedhore penje penjo moro kendo.
And they did not dare to question Him any further.
41 Eka Yesu nowachonegi niya, “Ere kaka giwacho ni Kristo en Wuod Daudi?
Then Jesus declared, “How can it be said that the Christ is the Son of David?
42 Daudi owuon wacho maler e Kitabu mar Zaburi niya, “‘Ruoth Nyasaye nowachone Ruodha ni, “Bed e bada korachwich,
For David himself says in the book of Psalms: ‘The Lord said to my Lord, “Sit at My right hand
43 nyaka aket wasiki e bwo tiendi.”’
until I make Your enemies a footstool for Your feet.”’
44 Daudi luonge ni ‘Ruoth.’ Ere kaka onyalo bedo wuode kendo?”
Thus David calls Him ‘Lord.’ So how can He be David’s son?”
45 Kane ji duto winjo, Yesu nowachone jopuonjrene niya,
In the hearing of all the people, Jesus said to His disciples,
46 “Beduru motangʼ ni jopuonj chik. Gihero wuotho koni gi koni ka girwako lewni maboyo mayware piny kendo gihero ni omosgi e chirni kendo gihero bedo e kombe moyiedhi manie sinagoke kod kuonde ma imiyoe ji duongʼ e sewni.
“Beware of the scribes. They like to walk around in long robes, and they love the greetings in the marketplaces, the chief seats in the synagogues, and the places of honor at banquets.
47 Giyako ute mon ma chwogi otho kendo gilamo lamo moyware mondo ginyisrego ni ji kaka gilony e lamo. Joma kamagi ibiro kum malit moloyo.”
They defraud widows of their houses, and for a show make lengthy prayers. These men will receive greater condemnation.”
