< 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.
A AP kotin tapiada padaki irail ni karaseras akan: Aramas amen me padukedi mat en krep eu o kele pena, ap weirada deun wungit krep eu, o kauada im en silasil eu, ap mueidalang saumat akai, ap momaitelang nan wai.
2 At harvest time, he sent a servant to the tenants to collect his share of the fruit of the vineyard.
Kadekadeo ansaun rak, a ap kadaralang saumat oko ladu amen, pwen ale ren saumat oko kisan wan matuel o.
3 But they seized the servant, beat him, and sent him away empty-handed.
Re ap saikidi, kame o ari, kadarala kaip.
4 Then he sent them another servant, and they struck him over the head and treated him shamefully.
A ap pil kadaralang irail amen ladu, re ap kate, pwalang ong monga, ap kadarala i kasaroela.
5 He sent still another, and this one they killed. He sent many others; some they beat and others they killed.
A ap pil kadarala amen; re ap kamela; pil me toto re woki akai, a re kamela akai.
6 Finally, having one beloved son, he sent him to them. ‘They will respect my son,’ he said.
Ari, na ieros eu, me a pokepoke, i me a kadarala ikmuri, a masani: Re pan wauneki nai ol.
7 But the tenants said to one another, ‘This is the heir. Come, let us kill him, and the inheritance will be ours.’
A saumat pukat inda pena nan pung arail: Seri en soso met; na, kitail en kamela! Ari, kitail ap pan id aneki soso o;
8 So they seized the son, killed him, and threw him out of the vineyard.
Re ap ale, kamela, kasewei sang nan mat en krep.
9 What then will the owner of the vineyard do? He will come and kill those tenants, and will give the vineyard to others.
Ari, da me saumas en mat o pan wia? A pan kodo, kamela saumat oko; a ap pan mueid ong akai matuel o.
10 Have you never read this Scripture: ‘The stone the builders rejected has become the cornerstone.
Komail sota wadoker kisin likau et: Takai, me sause kan kasapokelar ap id wialar takai en pukakaim?
11 This is from the Lord, and it is marvelous in our eyes’?”
Mepukat wiauier ren Kaun o, men kapuriamui patail.
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.
Irail ari sosong pwen saikidi i, a re masak aramas akan, pwe re asa, me a karaserase kin irail. Irail ari kokola sang re a.
13 Later, they sent some of the Pharisees and Herodians to catch Jesus in His words.
Irail ap kadaralang re a Parisär o iang en Erodes akai, pwen kasapunge i sang ni a masan.
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?”
Ari, ni ar kodo, re potoan ong i: Saunpadak, se asa, me komui me melel o sota insenoki meamen. Pwe komui sota lipilipil mas en aramas, a kom kaukawewe al en Kot ni me pung. Me pung, en nopweiki moni ong nanmarki de so? Se en kida, de se ender kida?
15 But Jesus saw through their hypocrisy and said, “Why are you testing Me? Bring Me a denarius to inspect.”
A a kotin mangi ar malaun masani ong irail: Menda komail songesong ia? Wa dong ia eu denar en, pwe I en kilang.
16 So they brought it, and He asked them, “Whose image is this? And whose inscription?” “Caesar’s,” they answered.
Irail ap wado. A ap kotin masani ong irail: Mom o inting en is met akan? Irail potoan ong i: En nanmarki.
17 Then Jesus told them, “Give to Caesar what is Caesar’s, and to God what is God’s.” And they marveled at Him.
Iesus ap kotin sapeng, masani ong irail: Ari, komail ki ong nanmarki me nain nanmarki, o ong Kot me sapwilim en Kot. Re ap puriamui kila i.
18 Then the Sadducees, who say there is no resurrection, came to Jesus and questioned Him:
Sadusär akai ap ko dong re a, me kin inda me dene sota me pan maureda sang mela. Re ap peidok re a indada:
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.
Saunpadak, Moses intinge dong kit er, ma ri en ol amen mela, kidi a paud, sota na seri ko, a ri a ol ap pan id ale a paud, pwen wiada kadaudok a ong ri a ol o.
20 Now there were seven brothers. The first one married and died, leaving no children.
Ari pirien, ol isimen mia. Men mas re’rail paude kida li amen ap melar, sota kadaudok a.
21 Then the second one married the widow, but he also died and left no children. And the third did likewise.
Men muri ap id ale, ap melar, pil sota kadaudok a. A kasilimen pil dueta.
22 In this way, none of the seven left any children. And last of all, the woman died.
A irail isimen oko paude kida i, sota kadaudok a. Ari, murin karos li o ari pil melar.
23 In the resurrection, then, whose wife will she be? For all seven were married to her.”
Ran en iasada ni ar pan maureda, is me pan paudeki i re’rail, pwe irail isimen oko paudekier i?
24 Jesus said to them, “Aren’t you mistaken, because you do not know the Scriptures or the power of God?
Iesus ap kotin sapeng, masani ong irail: Omail sota lelapokki kisin likau kan o roson en Kot, kaidik iei me kareda omail sas kida?
25 When the dead rise, they will neither marry nor be given in marriage. Instead, they will be like the angels in heaven.
Pwe irail pan lao maureda sang ren me melar akan, re sola pan papaud de kapapaud. A re pan duela tounlang kan me mimi nanlang.
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’?
Ari, duen me melar akan ar pan maureda, komail sota wadoker nan puk en Moses, duen Kot a kotin masani ong i nan wel en tuka o: Ngai Kot en Apraain, o Kot en Isaak, o Kot en Iakop!
27 He is not the God of the dead, but of the living. You are badly mistaken!”
Kaidin i Kot en me melar akan, pwe Kot en memaureta! Iei, me komail sas kida kaualap.
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?”
Ari, amen ren saunkawewe kan ap potodo, me ronger duen ar kapakaparok pena, ap kasauiada, me a pasapeng me inen, ap idok re a: Ia mo en kusoned karos?
29 Jesus replied, “This is the most important: ‘Hear O Israel, the Lord our God, the Lord is One.
Iesus ari masani ong i: Iet mo en kusoned akan: Rong Israel! Kaun patail Kot me Kaun me ta men.
30 Love the Lord your God with all your heart and with all your soul and with all your mind and with all your strength.’
Ari, koe en poke ki ong Kaun, om Kot, mongiong om unsok, o ngen om unsok, o om lamelam unsok, o om kel unsok! Iei met me mo en kusoned akan.
31 The second is this: ‘Love your neighbor as yourself.’ No other commandment is greater than these.”
A kariau me dueta. Iet et: Koe en pok ong men imp om due pein koe! Sota eu kusoned me lapasang mepukat.
32 “Right, Teacher,” the scribe replied. “You have stated correctly that God is One and there is no other but Him,
Saunkawewe ap potoan ong i: Me mau Saunpadak! Melel me kom masani en! Pwe i me ta men, a sota pil amen, pwe i eta!
33 and to love Him with all your heart and with all your understanding and with all your strength, and to love your neighbor as yourself, which is more important than all burnt offerings and sacrifices.”
O poke ki ong i mongiong unsok, o lamelam unsok, o ngen unsok, o kel unsok, o pok, ong men impa due pein i, mau sang mairong isis o mairong tei kan.
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.
Ni en Iesus a kotin masani a pasapeng a inen, a ap masani ong i: Kom sota doo sang wein Kot. Ari, ap solar, me men pil idok re a meakot.
35 While Jesus was teaching in the temple courts, He asked, “How can the scribes say that the Christ is the Son of David?
Iesus ap pil kotin sapeng masani ni a kotin kaukawewe nan im en kaudok o: Da me saunkawewe kan indaki, me Kristus nain Dawid?
36 Speaking by the Holy Spirit, David himself declared: ‘The Lord said to my Lord, “Sit at My right hand until I put Your enemies under Your feet.”’
Pwe pein Dawid masaniki ren Ngen saraui: Kaun o kotin masani ong ai Kaun: Kom kotidi ong pali maun i, I lao wia kida wutipan aluwilu omui om imwintiti kan!
37 David himself calls Him ‘Lord.’ So how can He be David’s son?” And the large crowd listened to Him with delight.
Ari, Dawid pein kaadaneki i Kaun; a daduen a wia na? Aramas akan ap mauki a padak.
38 In His teaching Jesus also said, “Watch out for the scribes. They like to walk around in long robes, to receive greetings in the marketplaces,
A ap kotin masani ong irail ni a padak: Kalaka saunkawewe kan, me mauki mi nan likau reirei o men, re en ranmaui ir nan wasan net.
39 and to have the chief seats in the synagogues and the places of honor at banquets.
O men mod leppantam nan sinakoke kan o kamadip.
40 They defraud widows of their houses, and for a show make lengthy prayers. These men will receive greater condemnation.”
O ngoper sang li odi im ar, ap liliasos kapakap reirei. Irail pan lodi ong kadeik lapalap.
41 As Jesus was sitting opposite the treasury, He watched the crowd putting money into it. And many rich people put in large amounts.
Iesus ap kotikot sal ong deun moni en mairong, ap mamasani, en aramas ar kasedi ong moni nan deu o. A me toto, me kapwapwa, kasedi ong me toto.
42 Then one poor widow came and put in two small copper coins, which amounted to a small fraction of a denarius.
Li odi samama ap kodo o kasedi ong kisin moni riakis, me wiada kwadrans eu.
43 Jesus called His disciples to Him and said, “Truly I tell you, this poor widow has put more than all the others into the treasury.
A ap kotin molipedo sapwilim a tounpadak kan, masani ong ir: Melel I indai ong komail, me li odi samama men et kasedi ong me laude sang irail karos, me pil kasedi ong nan deun moni o.
44 For they all contributed out of their surplus, but she out of her poverty has put in all she had to live on.”
Pwe karos kasedi ong sang ni ar pai. A i me kasedi ong sang ni a samama, karos me a, i eta a manga.
