< 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.
ⲁ̅ⲁⲩⲱ ⲁϥⲁⲣⲭⲉⲓ ⲛϫⲟⲟⲥ ⲛⲁⲩ ϩⲛ ϩⲉⲛⲡⲁⲣⲁⲃⲟⲗⲏ ϫⲉ ⲟⲩⲣⲱⲙⲉ ⲡⲉ ⲛⲧⲁϥⲧⲱϭⲉ ⲛⲟⲩⲙⲁ ⲛⲉⲗⲟⲟⲗⲉ ⲁϥⲕⲧⲟ ⲉⲣⲟϥ ⲛⲟⲩϫⲟ ⲁϥϣⲁⲕⲧⲟⲩⲉⲓⲟⲙ ϩⲣⲁⲓ ⲛϩⲏⲧϥ ⲁⲩⲱ ⲁϥⲕⲱⲧ ⲛⲟⲩⲡⲩⲣⲅⲟⲥ ⲁϥⲧⲁⲁϥ ⲉⲧⲟⲟⲧⲟⲩ ⲛϩⲉⲛϭⲙⲏⲟⲩ ⲁϥⲁⲡⲟⲇⲏⲙⲉⲓ
2 At harvest time, he sent a servant to the tenants to collect his share of the fruit of the vineyard.
ⲃ̅ⲁⲩⲱ ⲁϥϫⲉⲩⲟⲩϩⲙϩⲁⲗ ⲉⲣⲁⲧⲟⲩ ⲛⲛⲉϭⲙⲏⲟⲩ ϩⲙ ⲡⲕⲁⲓⲣⲟⲥ ⲛⲛⲕⲁⲣⲡⲟⲥ ϫⲉ ⲉϥⲉϫⲓ ⲛⲧⲟⲟⲧⲟⲩ ⲛⲛⲉϭⲙⲏⲟⲩ ⲉⲃⲟⲗ ϩⲙ ⲛⲕⲁⲣⲡⲟⲥ ⲙⲡⲙⲁ ⲛⲉⲗⲟⲟⲗⲉ
3 But they seized the servant, beat him, and sent him away empty-handed.
ⲅ̅ⲁⲩⲱ ⲛⲧⲉⲣⲟⲩⲁⲙⲁϩⲧⲉ ⲙⲙⲟϥ ⲁⲩϩⲓⲟⲩⲉ ⲉⲣⲟϥ ⲁⲩϫⲟⲟⲩϥ ⲉⲙⲡⲟⲩϯⲗⲁⲁⲩ ⲛⲁϥ
4 Then he sent them another servant, and they struck him over the head and treated him shamefully.
ⲇ̅ⲁϥϫⲉⲩⲕⲉϩⲙϩⲁⲗ ⲟⲛ ⲉⲣⲁⲧⲟⲩ ⲡⲕⲉⲟⲩⲁ ⲉⲧⲙⲙⲁⲩ ⲁⲩⲙⲟⲟⲩⲧϥ ⲁⲩⲱ ⲁⲩⲥⲟϣϥ
5 He sent still another, and this one they killed. He sent many others; some they beat and others they killed.
ⲉ̅ⲁϥϫⲉⲩⲕⲉⲟⲩⲁ ⲁⲩⲱ ⲡⲕⲉⲧ ⲁⲩⲙⲟⲟⲩⲧϥ ⲙⲛϩⲉⲛⲕⲟⲟⲩⲉ ⲧⲏⲣⲟⲩ ϩⲟⲓⲛⲉ ⲙⲉⲛ ⲉⲩϩⲓⲟⲩⲉ ⲉⲣⲟⲟⲩ ϩⲉⲛⲕⲟⲟⲩⲉ ⲇⲉ ⲉⲩⲙⲟⲟⲩⲧ ⲙⲙⲟⲟⲩ
6 Finally, having one beloved son, he sent him to them. ‘They will respect my son,’ he said.
ⲋ̅ⲉⲧⲓ ⲛⲉⲩⲛⲧϥⲟⲩϣⲏⲣⲉ ⲙⲙⲁⲩ ⲙⲙⲉⲣⲓⲧ ⲁϥϫⲟⲟⲩϥ ⲉⲣⲁⲧⲟⲩ ⲙⲛⲛⲥⲱⲟⲩ ⲉϥϫⲱ ⲙⲙⲟⲥ ϫⲉ ⲥⲉⲛⲁϣⲓⲡⲉ ϩⲏⲧϥ ⲙⲡⲁϣⲏⲣⲉ
7 But the tenants said to one another, ‘This is the heir. Come, let us kill him, and the inheritance will be ours.’
ⲍ̅ⲛⲉϭⲙⲏⲩ ⲇⲉ ⲉⲧⲙⲙⲁⲩ ⲁⲩϣⲁϫⲉ ⲙⲛ ⲛⲉⲩⲉⲣⲏⲩ ⲉⲩϫⲱ ⲙⲙⲟⲥ ϫⲉ ⲡⲁⲓ ⲡⲉ ⲡⲉⲕⲗⲏⲣⲟⲛⲟⲙⲟⲥ ⲁⲙⲏⲓⲧⲛ ⲛⲧⲛⲙⲟⲟⲩⲧϥ ⲁⲩⲱ ⲧⲉⲕⲗⲏⲣⲟⲛⲟⲙⲓⲁ ⲛⲁⲣⲧⲱⲛ
8 So they seized the son, killed him, and threw him out of the vineyard.
ⲏ̅ⲛⲧⲉⲣⲟⲩⲁⲙⲁϩⲧⲉ ⲇⲉ ⲙⲙⲟϥ ⲁⲩⲙⲟⲟⲩⲧϥ ⲁⲩⲱ ⲁⲩⲛⲟϫϥ ⲉⲡⲃⲟⲗ ⲙⲡⲙⲁ ⲛⲉⲗⲟⲟⲗⲉ
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.
ⲓ̅ⲧⲉⲓⲅⲣⲁⲫⲏ ⲇⲉ ⲟⲛ ⲙⲡⲉⲧⲛⲟϣⲥ ϫⲉ ⲡⲱⲛⲉ ⲛⲧⲁⲛⲉⲧⲕⲱⲧ ⲥⲧⲟϥ ⲉⲃⲟⲗ ⲁϥϣⲱⲡⲉ ⲉⲩⲁⲡⲉ ⲛⲕⲟⲟϩ

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.
ⲓ̅ⲃ̅ⲁⲩⲟⲩⲱϣ ⲇⲉ ⲉⲁⲙⲁϩⲧⲉ ⲙⲙⲟϥ ⲁⲩⲱ ⲁⲩⲣ ϩⲟⲧⲉ ϩⲏⲧϥ ⲙⲡⲙⲏⲏϣⲉ ⲁⲩⲉⲓⲙⲉ ⲅⲁⲣ ϫⲉ ⲛⲧⲁϥϫⲉ ⲧⲉⲓⲡⲁⲣⲁⲃⲟⲗⲏ ⲉⲧⲃⲏⲏⲧⲟⲩ ⲁⲩⲱ ⲛⲧⲉⲣⲟⲩⲕⲁⲁϥ ⲁⲩⲃⲱⲕ
13 Later, they sent some of the Pharisees and Herodians to catch Jesus in His words.
ⲓ̅ⲅ̅ⲁⲩⲱ ⲁⲩϫⲉⲩϩⲟⲓⲛⲉ ⲉⲣⲁⲧϥ ⲛϭⲓ ⲛⲉⲫⲁⲣⲓⲥⲥⲁⲓⲟⲥ ⲙⲛⲛϩⲏⲣⲱⲇⲓⲁⲛⲟⲥ ⲉⲧⲣⲉⲩϭⲟⲡϥ ϩⲛ ⲟⲩϣⲁϫⲉ
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?”
ⲓ̅ⲇ̅ⲁⲩⲱ ⲛⲧⲉⲣⲟⲩϯ ⲡⲉⲩⲟⲩⲟⲉⲓ ⲉⲣⲟϥ ⲡⲉϫⲁⲩ ⲛⲁϥ ϫⲉ ⲡⲥⲁϩ ⲧⲛⲥⲟⲟⲩⲛ ϫⲉ ⲛⲧⲕⲟⲩⲣⲙ ⲙⲙⲉ ⲁⲩⲱ ⲛⲅϩⲏϭⲉ ⲁⲛ ϩⲏⲧϥ ⲗⲗⲁⲁⲩ ⲛⲅϫⲓϩⲟ ⲅⲁⲣ ⲁⲛ ⲣⲣⲱⲙⲉ ⲁⲗⲗⲁ ϩⲛ ⲟⲩⲙⲉ ⲉⲕϯ ⲥⲃⲱ ⲛⲧⲉϩⲓⲏ ⲙⲡⲛⲟⲩⲧⲉ ⲉⲝⲉⲥⲧⲓ ⲉϯⲕⲏⲛⲥⲟⲥ ⲙⲡⲣⲣⲟ ϫⲛⲙⲙⲟⲛ ⲧⲁⲣⲛϯ ϫⲛⲙⲡⲱⲣ
15 But Jesus saw through their hypocrisy and said, “Why are you testing Me? Bring Me a denarius to inspect.”
ⲓ̅ⲉ̅ⲛⲧⲟϥ ⲇⲉ ⲉϥⲥⲟⲟⲩⲛ ⲛⲧⲉⲩϩⲩⲡⲟⲕⲣⲓⲥⲓⲥ ⲡⲉϫⲁϥ ⲛⲁⲩ ϫⲉ ⲉⲧⲃⲉ ⲟⲩ ⲧⲉⲧⲛⲡⲉⲓⲣⲁⲍⲉ ⲙⲙⲟⲓ ⲁⲛⲓⲟⲩⲥⲁⲧⲉⲉⲣⲉ ⲛⲁⲓ ϫⲉ ⲉⲓⲉⲛⲁⲩ ⲉⲣⲟⲥ
16 So they brought it, and He asked them, “Whose image is this? And whose inscription?” “Caesar’s,” they answered.
ⲓ̅ⲋ̅ⲛⲧⲟⲟⲩ ⲇⲉ ⲥⲟⲩⲧⲱⲛⲥ ⲉⲣⲟϥ ⲁⲩⲱ ⲡⲉϫⲁϥ ⲛⲁⲩ ϫⲉ ⲧⲁⲛⲓⲙ ⲧⲉ ⲧⲉⲉⲓϩⲓⲕⲱⲛ ⲙⲛ ⲛⲉⲓⲥϩⲁⲓ ⲛⲧⲟⲟⲩ ⲇⲉ ⲡⲉϫⲁⲩ ⲛⲁϥ ϫⲉ ⲧⲁⲡⲣⲣⲟ ⲧⲉ
17 Then Jesus told them, “Give to Caesar what is Caesar’s, and to God what is God’s.” And they marveled at Him.
ⲓ̅ⲍ̅ⲓⲏⲥ ⲇⲉ ⲡⲉϫⲁϥ ⲛⲁⲩ ϫⲉ ϯ ⲛⲁⲡⲣⲣⲟ ϭⲉ ⲙⲡⲣⲣⲟ ⲁⲩⲱ ⲛⲁⲡⲛⲟⲩⲧⲉ ⲙⲡⲛⲟⲩⲧⲉ ⲁⲩⲱ ⲁⲩⲣϣⲡⲏⲣⲉ ⲙⲙⲟϥ
18 Then the Sadducees, who say there is no resurrection, came to Jesus and questioned Him:
ⲓ̅ⲏ̅ⲁⲩⲉⲓ ⲇⲉ ϣⲁⲣⲟϥ ⲛϭⲓ ⲛⲥⲁⲇⲇⲟⲩⲕⲁⲓⲟⲥ ⲛⲉⲧϫⲱ ⲙⲙⲟⲥ ϫⲉ ⲙⲙⲛⲁⲛⲁⲥⲧⲁⲥⲓⲥ ⲛⲁϣⲱⲡⲉ ⲁⲩⲱ ⲁⲩϫⲛⲟⲩϥ 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 ⲡⲥⲁϩ ⲙⲱⲩⲥⲏⲥ ⲁϥⲥϩⲁⲓ ⲛⲁⲛ ϫⲉ ⲉϣⲱⲡⲉ ⲉⲣϣⲁⲛⲡⲥⲟⲛ ⲟⲩⲁ ⲙⲟⲩ ⲁⲩⲱ ⲛϥⲕⲁⲧⲉϥⲥϩⲓⲙⲉ ⲛϥⲧⲙⲕⲁϣⲏⲣⲉ ⲇⲉ ⲉⲣⲉⲡⲉϥⲥⲟⲛ ϫⲓⲧⲉϥⲥϩⲓⲙⲉ ⲛϥⲧⲟⲩⲛⲟⲥⲥⲡⲉⲣⲙⲁ ⲙⲡⲉϥⲥⲟⲛ
20 Now there were seven brothers. The first one married and died, leaving no children.

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.”

24 Jesus said to them, “Aren’t you mistaken, because you do not know the Scriptures or the power of God?

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’?

27 He is not the God of the dead, but of the living. You are badly mistaken!”

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?”
ⲕ̅ⲏ̅ⲁⲩⲱ ⲛⲧⲉⲣⲉϥϯ ⲡⲉϥⲟⲩⲟⲓ ⲉϩⲟⲩⲛ ⲉⲣⲟϥ ⲛϭⲓ ⲟⲩⲁ ⲛⲛⲉⲅⲣⲁⲙⲙⲁⲧⲉⲩⲥ ⲉⲁϥⲥⲱⲧⲙ ⲉⲣⲟⲟⲩ ⲉⲩϯⲧⲱⲛ ⲉϥⲥⲟⲟⲩⲛ ϫⲉ ⲁϥⲣⲟⲩⲱ ⲛⲁⲩ ⲕⲁⲗⲱⲥ ⲁϥϫⲛⲟⲩϥ ϫⲉ ⲁϣ ⲧⲉ ⲧϣⲟⲣⲡ ⲛⲉⲛⲧⲟⲗⲏ ⲉⲣⲟⲟⲩ ⲧⲏⲣⲟⲩ
29 Jesus replied, “This is the most important: ‘Hear O Israel, the Lord our God, the Lord is One.

31 The second is this: ‘Love your neighbor as yourself.’ No other commandment is greater than these.”

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.
