< Luke 20 >

1 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.
Ní ọjọ́ kan, bí ó ti ń kọ́ àwọn ènìyàn ní tẹmpili tí ó sì ń wàásù ìyìnrere, àwọn olórí àlùfáà, àti àwọn akọ̀wé, pẹ̀lú àwọn àgbàgbà dìde sí i.
2 “Tell us,” they said, “by what authority are You doing these things, and who gave You this authority?”
Wọ́n sì wí fún un pé, “Sọ fún wa, àṣẹ wo ni ìwọ fi ń ṣe nǹkan wọ̀nyí? Tàbí ta ni ó fún ọ ní àṣẹ yìí?”
3 “I will also ask you a question,” Jesus replied. “Tell Me:
Ó sì dáhùn ó sì wí fún wọn pé, “Èmi pẹ̀lú yóò sì bi yín léèrè ọ̀rọ̀ kan; ẹ sì fi ìdáhùn fún mi.
4 John’s baptism—was it from heaven, or from men?”
Ìtẹ̀bọmi Johanu, láti ọ̀run wá ni tàbí láti ọ̀dọ̀ ènìyàn?”
5 They deliberated among themselves and said, “If we say, ‘From heaven,’ He will ask, ‘Why did you not believe him?’
Wọ́n sì bá ara wọn gbèrò pé, “Bí àwa bá wí pé, ‘Láti ọ̀run wá ni,’ òun yóò wí pé, ‘Èéṣe tí ẹ̀yin kò fi gbà á gbọ́?’
6 But if we say, ‘From men,’ all the people will stone us, for they are convinced that John was a prophet.”
Ṣùgbọ́n bí àwa bá sì wí pé, ‘Láti ọ̀dọ̀ ènìyàn,’ gbogbo ènìyàn ni yóò sọ wá ní òkúta, nítorí wọ́n gbàgbọ́ pé, wòlíì ni Johanu.”
7 So they answered that they did not know where it was from.
Wọ́n sì dáhùn wí pé, “Àwa kò mọ̀ ibi tí ó ti wá.”
8 And Jesus replied, “Neither will I tell you by what authority I am doing these things.”
Jesu sì wí fún wọn pé, “Ǹjẹ́ èmi kì yóò wí fún yín àṣẹ tí èmi fi ń ṣe nǹkan wọ̀nyí.”
9 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.
Nígbà náà ni ó bẹ̀rẹ̀ sí í pa òwe yìí fún àwọn ènìyàn pé, “Ọkùnrin kan gbin ọgbà àjàrà kan, ó sì fi ṣe àgbàtọ́jú fún àwọn olùṣọ́gbà, ó sì lọ sí àjò fún ìgbà pípẹ́.
10 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.
Nígbà tí ó sì tó àkókò, ó rán ọmọ ọ̀dọ̀ rẹ̀ kan sí àwọn olùṣọ́gbà náà, kí wọn lè fún un nínú èso ọgbà àjàrà náà, ṣùgbọ́n àwọn alágbàtọ́jú lù ú, wọ́n sì rán an padà lọ́wọ́ òfo.
11 So he sent another servant, but they beat him and treated him shamefully, sending him away empty-handed.
Ó sì tún rán ọmọ ọ̀dọ̀ mìíràn, wọ́n sì lù ú pẹ̀lú, wọ́n sì jẹ ẹ́ ní yà, wọ́n sì rán an padà lọ́wọ́ òfo.
12 Then he sent a third, but they wounded him and threw him out.
Ó sì tún rán ẹ̀kẹta: wọ́n sì sá a lọ́gbẹ́ pẹ̀lú, wọ́n sì tì í jáde.
13 ‘What shall I do?’ asked the owner of the vineyard. ‘I will send my beloved son. Perhaps they will respect him.’
“Nígbà náà ni Olúwa ọgbà àjàrà wí pé, ‘Èwo ni èmi ó ṣe? Èmi ó rán ọmọ mi àyànfẹ́ lọ: bóyá nígbà tí wọ́n bá rí i, wọn yóò bu ọlá fún un.’
14 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.’
“Ṣùgbọ́n nígbà tí àwọn alágbàtọ́jú náà rí i, wọ́n bá ara wọn gbèrò pé, ‘Èyí ni àrólé; ẹ wá, ẹ jẹ́ kí a pa á, kí ogún rẹ̀ lè jẹ́ ti wa.’
15 So they threw him out of the vineyard and killed him. What then will the owner of the vineyard do to them?
Bẹ́ẹ̀ ni wọ́n sì tì í jáde sẹ́yìn ọgbà àjàrà, wọ́n sì pa á. “Ǹjẹ́ kín ni olúwa ọgbà àjàrà náà yóò ṣe sí wọn?
16 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!”
Yóò wá, yóò sì pa àwọn alágbàtọ́jú náà run, yóò sì fi ọgbà àjàrà náà fún àwọn ẹlòmíràn.” Nígbà tí wọ́n sì gbọ́, wọ́n ní, “Kí a má ri i!”
17 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’?
Nígbà tí ó sì wò wọ́n, ó ní, “Èwo ha ni èyí tí a ti kọ̀wé rẹ̀ pé: “‘Òkúta tí àwọn ọ̀mọ̀lé kọ̀sílẹ̀, òun náà ni ó di pàtàkì igun ilé’?
18 Everyone who falls on this stone will be broken to pieces, but he on whom it falls will be crushed.”
Ẹnikẹ́ni tí ó ṣubú lu òkúta náà yóò fọ́; ṣùgbọ́n ẹnikẹ́ni tí òun bá ṣubú lù, yóò lọ̀ ọ́ lúúlúú.”
19 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.
Àwọn olórí àlùfáà àti àwọn akọ̀wé ń wá ọ̀nà láti mú un ní wákàtí náà; ṣùgbọ́n wọ́n bẹ̀rù àwọn ènìyàn, nítorí tí wọ́n mọ̀ pé, ó pa òwe yìí mọ́ wọn.
20 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.
Wọ́n sì ń ṣọ́ ọ, wọ́n sì rán àwọn ayọ́lẹ̀wò tí wọ́n ṣe ara wọn bí ẹni pé olóòtítọ́ ènìyàn, kí wọn ba à lè gbá ọ̀rọ̀ rẹ̀ mú, kí wọn ba à lè fi í lé agbára àti àṣẹ Baálẹ̀ lọ́wọ́.
21 “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.
Wọ́n sì bí i, pé, “Olùkọ́ àwa mọ̀ pé, ìwọ a máa sọ̀rọ̀ fún ni, ìwọ a sì máa kọ́ni bí ó ti tọ́, bẹ́ẹ̀ ni ìwọ kì í ṣe ojúsàájú ẹnìkan ṣùgbọ́n ìwọ ń kọ́ni ní ọ̀nà Ọlọ́run lóòtítọ́.
22 Is it lawful for us to pay taxes to Caesar or not?”
Ǹjẹ́ ó tọ́ fún wa láti máa san owó òde fún Kesari, tàbí kò tọ́?”
23 But Jesus saw through their duplicity and said to them,
Ṣùgbọ́n ó kíyèsi àrékérekè wọn, ó sì wí fún wọn pé,
24 “Show Me a denarius. Whose image and inscription are on it?” “Caesar’s,” they answered.
“Ẹ fi owó idẹ kan hàn mí. Àwòrán àti àkọlé ti ta ni ó wà níbẹ̀?” Wọ́n sì dá a lóhùn pé, “Ti Kesari ni.”
25 So Jesus told them, “Give to Caesar what is Caesar’s, and to God what is God’s.”
Ó sì wí fún wọn pé, “Ǹjẹ́ ẹ fi ohun tí i ṣe ti Kesari fún Kesari, àti ohun tí í ṣe ti Ọlọ́run fún Ọlọ́run.”
26 And they were unable to trap Him in His words before the people; and amazed at His answer, they fell silent.
Wọn kò sì lè gbá ọ̀rọ̀ rẹ̀ mú níwájú àwọn ènìyàn: ẹnu sì yà wọ́n sí ìdáhùn rẹ̀, wọ́n sì pa ẹnu wọn mọ́.
27 Then some of the Sadducees, who say there is no resurrection, came to question Him.
Àwọn Sadusi kan sì tọ̀ ọ́ wá, àwọn tí wọ́n ń wí pé àjíǹde òkú kò sí wọ́n sì bi í,
28 “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.
wí pé, “Olùkọ́, Mose kọ̀wé fún wa pé, Bí arákùnrin ẹnìkan bá kú, ní àìlọ́mọ, tí ó sì ní aya, kí arákùnrin rẹ̀ ṣú aya rẹ̀ lópó, kí ó lè gbé irú-ọmọ dìde fún arákùnrin rẹ̀.
29 Now there were seven brothers. The first one married a wife, but died childless.
Ǹjẹ́ àwọn arákùnrin méje kan ti wà; èkínní gbé ìyàwó, ó sì kú ní àìlọ́mọ.
30 Then the second
Èkejì sì ṣú u lópó: òun sì kú ní àìlọ́mọ.
31 and the third married the widow, and in the same way all seven died, leaving no children.
Ẹ̀kẹta sì ṣú u lópó: gẹ́gẹ́ bẹ́ẹ̀ sì ni àwọn méjèèje pẹ̀lú: wọn kò sì fi ọmọ sílẹ̀, wọ́n sì kú.
32 And last of all, the woman died.
Nígbẹ̀yìn pátápátá obìnrin náà kú pẹ̀lú.
33 So then, in the resurrection, whose wife will she be? For all seven were married to her.”
Ǹjẹ́ ní àjíǹde òkú, aya ti ta ni yóò ha ṣe nínú wọn? Nítorí àwọn méjèèje ni ó sá à ni í ní aya.”
34 Jesus answered, “The sons of this age marry and are given in marriage. (aiōn g165)
Jesu sì dáhùn ó wí fún wọn pé, “Àwọn ọmọ ayé yìí a máa gbéyàwó, wọn a sì máa fa ìyàwó fún ni. (aiōn g165)
35 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)
Ṣùgbọ́n àwọn tí a kà yẹ láti jogún ìyè ayérayé náà, àti àjíǹde kúrò nínú òkú, wọn kì í gbéyàwó, wọn kì í sì í fa ìyàwó fún ni. (aiōn g165)
36 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.
Nítorí wọn kò lè kú mọ́; nítorí tí wọn bá àwọn angẹli dọ́gba; àwọn ọmọ Ọlọ́run sì ni wọ́n, nítorí wọ́n di àwọn ọmọ àjíǹde.
37 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.’
Ní ti pé a ń jí àwọn òkú dìde, Mose tìkára rẹ̀ sì ti fihàn nínú igbó, nígbà tí ó pe ‘Olúwa ni Ọlọ́run Abrahamu, àti Ọlọ́run Isaaki, àti Ọlọ́run Jakọbu.’
38 He is not the God of the dead, but of the living, for to Him all are alive.”
Bẹ́ẹ̀ ni òun kì í ṣe Ọlọ́run àwọn òkú, bí kò ṣe ti àwọn alààyè, nítorí gbogbo wọn wà láààyè fún un.”
39 Some of the scribes answered, “Teacher, You have spoken well!”
Nígbà náà ni àwọn kan nínú àwọn akọ̀wé dá a lóhùn, pé, “Olùkọ́ ìwọ wí rere!”
40 And they did not dare to question Him any further.
Wọn kò sì jẹ́ bi í léèrè ọ̀rọ̀ kan mọ́.
41 Then Jesus declared, “How can it be said that the Christ is the Son of David?
Ó sì wí fún wọn pé, “Èéṣe tí wọ́n fi ń wí pé, ọmọ Dafidi ni Kristi?
42 For David himself says in the book of Psalms: ‘The Lord said to my Lord, “Sit at My right hand
Dafidi tìkára rẹ̀ sì wí nínú ìwé Saamu pé: “‘Olúwa sọ fún Olúwa mi pé: “Ìwọ jókòó ní ọwọ́ ọ̀tún mi
43 until I make Your enemies a footstool for Your feet.”’
títí èmi ó fi sọ àwọn ọ̀tá rẹ di àpótí ìtìsẹ̀ rẹ.”’
44 Thus David calls Him ‘Lord.’ So how can He be David’s son?”
Ǹjẹ́ bí Dafidi bá pè é ní ‘Olúwa.’ Òun ha sì ti ṣe jẹ́ ọmọ rẹ̀?”
45 In the hearing of all the people, Jesus said to His disciples,
Ó sì wí fún àwọn ọmọ-ẹ̀yìn rẹ̀ ní etí gbogbo ènìyàn pé,
46 “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.
“Ẹ máa kíyèsára lọ́dọ̀ àwọn akọ̀wé, tí wọ́n fẹ́ láti máa rìn nínú aṣọ gígùn, tí wọ́n sì fẹ́ ìkíni ní ọjà, àti ibùjókòó ọlá nínú Sinagọgu, àti ipò ọlá ní ibi àsè;
47 They defraud widows of their houses, and for a show make lengthy prayers. These men will receive greater condemnation.”
Àwọn tí ó jẹ ilé àwọn opó run, tí wọ́n sì ń gbàdúrà gígùn fún àṣehàn, àwọn wọ̀nyí náà ni yóò jẹ̀bi pọ̀jù.”
