< Mark 12 >

1 Then Jesus began to speak to them in parables: “A man planted a vineyard. He put a wall around it, dug a wine vat, and built a watchtower. Then he rented it out to some tenants and went away on a journey.
ⲁ̅ⲟⲩⲟϩ ⲁϥⲉⲣϩⲏⲧⲥ ⳿ⲛⲥⲁϫⲓ ⲛⲉⲙⲱⲟⲩ ϧⲉⲛ ϩⲁⲛⲡⲁⲣⲁⲃⲟⲗⲏ ⲛⲉ ⲟⲩⲟⲛ ⲟⲩⲣⲱⲙⲓ ⲁϥϭⲟ ⳿ⲛⲟⲩⲓⲁϩ⳿ⲁⲗⲟⲗⲓ ⲟⲩⲟϩ ⲁϥⲕⲱⲧ ⳿ⲛⲟⲩϫⲟⲓ ⳿ⲉⲣⲟϥ ⲟⲩⲟϩ ⲁϥϣⲱⲕ ⳿ⲛⲟⲩ⳿ϩⲣⲱⲧ ⳿ⲛϧⲏⲧϥ ⲟⲩⲟϩ ⲁϥⲕⲱⲧ ⳿ⲛⲟⲩⲡⲩⲣⲅⲟⲥ ⳿ⲛϧⲏⲧϥ ⲟⲩⲟϩ ⲁϥⲧⲏⲓϥ ⳿ⲉⲧⲟⲧⲟⲩ ⳿ⲛϩⲁⲛⲟⲩⲓⲏ ⲟⲩⲟϩ ⲁϥϣⲉⲛⲁϥ ⳿ⲉ⳿ⲡϣⲉⲙⲙⲟ.
2 At harvest time, he sent a servant to the tenants to collect his share of the fruit of the vineyard.
ⲃ̅ⲟⲩⲟϩ ⲁϥⲟⲩⲱⲣⲡ ϩⲁ ⲛⲓⲟⲩⲓⲏ ϧⲉⲛ ⳿ⲡⲥⲏⲟⲩ ⳿ⲛⲟⲩⲃⲱⲕ ϩⲓⲛⲁ ⳿ⲛⲧⲉϥϭⲓ ⳿ⲛⲧⲟⲧⲟⲩ ⳿ⲛⲛⲓⲟⲩⲓⲏ ⳿ⲉⲃⲟⲗϧⲉⲛ ⳿ⲡⲟⲩⲧⲁϩ ⳿ⲛⲧⲉ ⲡⲓⲓⲁϩ⳿ⲁⲗⲟⲗⲓ.
3 But they seized the servant, beat him, and sent him away empty-handed.

4 Then he sent them another servant, and they struck him over the head and treated him shamefully.
ⲇ̅ⲟⲩⲟϩ ⲁϥⲟⲩⲱⲣⲡ ⲟⲛ ϩⲁⲣⲱⲟⲩ ⳿ⲛⲕⲉⲃⲱⲕ ⲟⲩⲟϩ ⲡⲓⲕⲉⲟⲩⲁⲓ ⲁⲩⲫⲟⲗϩϥ ⲟⲩⲟϩ ⲁⲩϣⲟϣϥ.
5 He sent still another, and this one they killed. He sent many others; some they beat and others they killed.

6 Finally, having one beloved son, he sent him to them. ‘They will respect my son,’ he said.
ⲋ̅ⲉⲧⲓ ⲟⲩϣⲏⲣⲓ ⳿ⲙⲙⲉⲛⲣⲓⲧ ⳿ⲉⲛⲁϥ⳿ⲛⲧⲁϥ ⲁϥⲟⲩⲟⲣⲡϥ ⳿ⲉ⳿ⲡϧⲁ⳿ⲉ ϩⲁⲣⲱⲟⲩ ⲉϥϫⲱ ⳿ⲙⲙⲟⲥ ϫⲉ ⲥⲉⲛⲁ⳿ϣⲫⲓⲧ ϧⲁ⳿ⲧϩⲏ ⳿ⲙⲡⲁϣⲏⲣⲓ.
7 But the tenants said to one another, ‘This is the heir. Come, let us kill him, and the inheritance will be ours.’

8 So they seized the son, killed him, and threw him out of the vineyard.

9 What then will the owner of the vineyard do? He will come and kill those tenants, and will give the vineyard to others.

10 Have you never read this Scripture: ‘The stone the builders rejected has become the cornerstone.

12 At this, the leaders sought to arrest Jesus, for they knew that He had spoken this parable against them. But fearing the crowd, they left Him and went away.
ⲓ̅ⲃ̅ⲟⲩⲟϩ ⲛⲁⲩⲕⲱϯ ⳿ⲛⲥⲁ ⳿ⲁⲙⲟⲛⲓ ⳿ⲙⲙⲟϥ ⲡⲉ ⲟⲩⲟϩ ⲁⲩⲉⲣϩⲟϯ ϧⲁ⳿ⲧϩⲏ ⳿ⲙⲡⲓⲙⲏϣ ⲁⲩ⳿ⲉⲙⲓ ⲅⲁⲣ ϫⲉ ⳿ⲉⲧⲁϥϫⲉ ⲧⲁⲓⲡⲁⲣⲁⲃⲟⲗⲏ ⲉⲑⲃⲏⲧⲟⲩ ⲟⲩⲟϩ ⳿ⲉⲧⲁⲩⲭⲁϥ ⲁⲩϣⲉⲛⲱⲟⲩ.
13 Later, they sent some of the Pharisees and Herodians to catch Jesus in His words.
ⲓ̅ⲅ̅ⲟⲩⲟϩ ⲁⲩⲟⲩⲱⲣⲡ ϩⲁⲣⲟϥ ⳿ⲛϩⲁⲛⲟⲩⲟⲛ ⳿ⲛⲧⲉ ⲛⲓⲪⲁⲣⲓⲥⲉⲟⲥ ⲛⲉⲙ ⲛⲓⲏⲣⲱⲇⲓ⳿ⲁⲛⲟⲥ ϩⲓⲛⲁ ⳿ⲛⲧⲟⲩϫⲟⲣϫϥ ⳿ⲛⲟⲩⲥⲁϫⲓ.
14 “Teacher,” they said, “we know that You are honest and seek favor from no one. Indeed, You are impartial and teach the way of God in accordance with the truth. Is it lawful to pay taxes to Caesar or not? Should we pay them or not?”
ⲓ̅ⲇ̅
15 But Jesus saw through their hypocrisy and said, “Why are you testing Me? Bring Me a denarius to inspect.”
ⲓ̅ⲉ̅⳿ⲛⲑⲟϥ ⲇⲉ ⲉϥⲥⲱⲟⲩⲛ ⳿ⲛⲧⲟⲩⲙⲉⲧϣⲟⲃⲓ ⲡⲉϫⲁϥ ⲛⲱⲟⲩ ϫⲉ ⲉⲑⲃⲉ ⲟⲩ ⲧⲉⲧⲉⲛϭⲱⲛⲧ ⳿ⲙⲙⲟⲓ ⳿ⲁⲛⲓⲟⲩ⳿ⲓ ⲛⲏⲓ ⳿ⲛⲟⲩⲥⲁⲑⲉⲣⲓ ϩⲓⲛⲁ ⳿ⲛⲧⲁⲛⲁⲩ ⳿ⲉⲣⲟⲥ.
16 So they brought it, and He asked them, “Whose image is this? And whose inscription?” “Caesar’s,” they answered.
ⲓ̅ⲋ̅⳿ⲛⲑⲱⲟⲩ ⲇⲉ ⲁⲩ⳿ⲓⲛⲓ ⲟⲩⲟϩ ⲡⲉϫⲁϥ ⲛⲱⲟⲩ ϫⲉ ⲑⲁ ⲛⲓⲙ ⲧⲉ ⲧⲁⲓϩⲓⲕⲱⲛ ⲛⲉⲙ ⲧⲁⲓ⳿ⲉⲡⲓⲅⲣⲁⲫⲏ⳿ⲛⲑⲱⲟⲩ ⲇⲉ ⲡⲉϫⲱⲟⲩ ⲛⲁϥ ϫⲉ ⲛⲁ ⳿ⲡⲟⲩⲣⲟ ⲛⲉ.
17 Then Jesus told them, “Give to Caesar what is Caesar’s, and to God what is God’s.” And they marveled at Him.

18 Then the Sadducees, who say there is no resurrection, came to Jesus and questioned Him:
ⲓ̅ⲏ̅ⲟⲩⲟϩ ⲁⲩ⳿ⲓ ϩⲁⲣⲟϥ ⳿ⲛϫⲉ ϩⲁⲛⲤⲁⲇⲇⲟⲩⲕⲉⲟⲥ ⲛⲏⲉⲧϫⲱ ⳿ⲙⲙⲟⲥ ϫⲉ ⳿ⲙⲙⲟⲛ ⳿⳿ⲁⲛⲁⲥⲧⲁⲥⲓⲥ ϣⲟⲡ ⲟⲩⲟϩ ⲛⲁⲩϣⲓⲛⲓ ⳿ⲙⲙⲟϥ ⲡⲉ ⲉⲩϫⲱ ⳿ⲙⲙⲟⲥ.
19 “Teacher, 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.
ⲓ̅ⲑ̅ϫⲉ ⳿ⲫⲣⲉϥϯ⳿ⲥⲃⲱ Ⲙⲱ⳿ⲩⲥⲏⲥ ⲁϥ⳿ⲥϧⲁⲓ ⲛⲁⲛ ϫⲉ ⳿ⲉϣⲱⲡ ⳿ⲛⲧⲉ ⳿ⲡⲥⲟⲛ ⳿ⲛⲟⲩⲁⲓ ⲙⲟⲩ ⲟⲩⲟϩ ⳿ⲛⲧⲉϥⲥⲉϫⲡ ⲟⲩ⳿ⲥϩⲓⲙⲓ ⲟⲩⲟϩ ⳿ⲛⲧⲉϥ⳿ϣⲧⲉⲙⲭⲁ ϣⲏⲣⲓ ϩⲓⲛⲁ ⳿ⲛⲧⲉ ⲡⲉϥⲥⲟⲛ ϭⲓ ⳿ⲛϯ⳿ⲥϩⲓⲙⲓ ⲟⲩⲟϩ ⳿ⲛⲧⲉϥⲧⲟⲩⲛⲟⲥ ⲟⲩ⳿ϫⲣⲟϫ ⳿ⲙⲡⲉϥⲥⲟⲛ.

21 Then the second one married the widow, but he also died and left no children. And the third did likewise.

22 In this way, none of the seven left any children. And last of all, the woman died.

23 In the resurrection, then, whose wife will she be? For all seven were married to her.”

25 When the dead rise, they will neither marry nor be given in marriage. Instead, they will be like the angels in heaven.

26 But concerning the dead rising, have you not read about the burning bush in the Book of Moses, how God told him, ‘I am the God of Abraham, the God of Isaac, and the God of Jacob’?

28 Now one of the scribes had come up and heard their debate. Noticing how well Jesus had answered them, he asked Him, “Which commandment is the most important of all?”

34 When Jesus saw that the man had answered wisely, He said, “You are not far from the kingdom of God.” And no one dared to question Him any further.
