Luke 20
1 And it came to pass on one of the days, as he was teaching the people in the temple, and announcing the glad tidings, the chief priests and the scribes with the elders came up,
Καὶ ἐγένετο ἐν μιᾷ τῶν ἡμερῶν (ἐκείνων *k*) διδάσκοντος αὐτοῦ τὸν λαὸν ἐν τῷ ἱερῷ καὶ εὐαγγελιζομένου ἐπέστησαν οἱ (ἀρχιερεῖς *NK(o)*) καὶ οἱ γραμματεῖς σὺν τοῖς πρεσβυτέροις
2 and spoke to him saying, Tell us by what authority thou doest these things, or who is it who has given thee this authority?
καὶ εἶπαν λέγοντες πρὸς αὐτόν· εἰπὸν ἡμῖν ἐν ποίᾳ ἐξουσίᾳ ταῦτα ποιεῖς ἢ τίς ἐστιν ὁ δούς σοι τὴν ἐξουσίαν ταύτην;
3 And he answering said to them, I also will ask you [one] thing, and tell me:
Ἀποκριθεὶς δὲ εἶπεν πρὸς αὐτούς· ἐρωτήσω ὑμᾶς κἀγὼ κἀγὼ (ἕνα *k*) λόγον, καὶ εἴπατέ μοι·
4 The baptism of John, was it of heaven or of men?
τὸ βάπτισμα Ἰωάννου ἐξ οὐρανοῦ ἦν ἢ ἐξ ἀνθρώπων;
5 And they reasoned among themselves, saying, If we should say, Of heaven, he will say, Why have ye not believed him?
οἱ δὲ συνελογίσαντο πρὸς ἑαυτοὺς λέγοντες ὅτι ἐὰν εἴπωμεν· ἐξ οὐρανοῦ, ἐρεῖ· διὰ τί (οὖν *K*) οὐκ ἐπιστεύσατε αὐτῷ;
6 but if we should say, Of men, the whole people will stone us, for they are persuaded that John was a prophet.
ἐὰν δὲ εἴπωμεν· ἐξ ἀνθρώπων, ὁ λαὸς (ἅπας *N(k)O*) καταλιθάσει ἡμᾶς· πεπεισμένος γάρ ἐστιν Ἰωάννην προφήτην εἶναι.
7 And they answered, they did not know whence.
καὶ ἀπεκρίθησαν μὴ εἰδέναι πόθεν.
8 And Jesus said to them, Neither do I tell you by what authority I do these things.
καὶ ὁ Ἰησοῦς εἶπεν αὐτοῖς· οὐδὲ ἐγὼ λέγω ὑμῖν ἐν ποίᾳ ἐξουσίᾳ ταῦτα ποιῶ.
9 And he began to speak to the people this parable: A man planted a vineyard and let it out to husbandmen, and left the country for a long time.
Ἤρξατο δὲ πρὸς τὸν λαὸν λέγειν τὴν παραβολὴν ταύτην· ἄνθρωπός (τις *NK*) ἐφύτευσεν ἀμπελῶνα καὶ ἐξέδετο αὐτὸν γεωργοῖς καὶ ἀπεδήμησεν χρόνους ἱκανούς.
10 And in the season he sent to the husbandmen a bondman, that they might give to him of the fruit of the vineyard; but the husbandmen, having beaten him, sent [him] away empty.
καὶ (ἐν *k*) καιρῷ ἀπέστειλεν πρὸς τοὺς γεωργοὺς δοῦλον ἵνα ἀπὸ τοῦ καρποῦ τοῦ ἀμπελῶνος (δώσουσιν *N(k)O*) αὐτῷ· οἱ δὲ γεωργοὶ ἐξαπέστειλαν αὐτὸν δείραντες κενόν.
11 And again he sent another bondman; but they, having beaten him also, and cast insult upon him, sent [him] away empty.
καὶ προσέθετο ἕτερον πέμψαι δοῦλον· οἱ δὲ κἀκεῖνον κἀκεῖνον δείραντες καὶ ἀτιμάσαντες ἐξαπέστειλαν κενόν.
12 And again he sent a third; and they, having wounded him also, cast [him] out.
καὶ προσέθετο τρίτον πέμψαι· οἱ δὲ καὶ τοῦτον τραυματίσαντες ἐξέβαλον.
13 And the lord of the vineyard said, What shall I do? I will send my beloved son: perhaps when they see him they will respect [him].
Εἶπεν δὲ ὁ κύριος τοῦ ἀμπελῶνος· τί ποιήσω; πέμψω τὸν υἱόν μου τὸν ἀγαπητόν· ἴσως τοῦτον (ἰδόντες *K*) ἐντραπήσονται.
14 But when the husbandmen saw him, they reasoned among themselves, saying, This is the heir; [come, ] let us kill him, that the inheritance may become ours.
ἰδόντες δὲ αὐτὸν οἱ γεωργοὶ διελογίζοντο πρὸς (ἀλλήλους *N(k)O*) λέγοντες· οὗτός ἐστιν ὁ κληρονόμος· (δεῦτε *K*) ἀποκτείνωμεν αὐτὸν ἵνα ἡμῶν γένηται ἡ κληρονομία.
15 And having cast him forth out of the vineyard, they killed [him]. What therefore shall the lord of the vineyard do to them?
καὶ ἐκβαλόντες αὐτὸν ἔξω τοῦ ἀμπελῶνος ἀπέκτειναν. τί οὖν ποιήσει αὐτοῖς ὁ κύριος τοῦ ἀμπελῶνος;
16 He will come and destroy those husbandmen, and will give the vineyard to others. And when they heard it they said, May it never be!
ἐλεύσεται καὶ ἀπολέσει τοὺς γεωργοὺς τούτους καὶ δώσει τὸν ἀμπελῶνα ἄλλοις. ἀκούσαντες δὲ εἶπαν· μὴ γένοιτο.
17 But he looking at them said, What then is this that is written, The stone which they that builded rejected, this has become the corner-stone?
ὁ δὲ ἐμβλέψας αὐτοῖς εἶπεν· τί οὖν ἐστιν τὸ γεγραμμένον τοῦτο· λίθον ὃν ἀπεδοκίμασαν οἱ οἰκοδομοῦντες, οὗτος ἐγενήθη εἰς κεφαλὴν γωνίας;
18 Every one falling on this stone shall be broken, but on whomsoever it shall fall, it shall grind him to powder.
πᾶς ὁ πεσὼν ἐπ᾽ ἐκεῖνον τὸν λίθον συνθλασθήσεται· ἐφ᾽ ὃν δ᾽ ἂν πέσῃ, λικμήσει αὐτόν.
19 And the chief priests and the scribes sought the same hour to lay hands on him, and they feared the people; for they knew that he had spoken this parable of them.
Καὶ ἐζήτησαν οἱ γραμματεῖς καὶ οἱ ἀρχιερεῖς ἐπιβαλεῖν ἐπ᾽ αὐτὸν τὰς χεῖρας ἐν αὐτῇ τῇ ὥρᾳ καὶ ἐφοβήθησαν τὸν λαόν· ἔγνωσαν γὰρ ὅτι πρὸς αὐτοὺς εἶπεν τὴν παραβολὴν ταύτην.
20 And having watched [him], they sent out suborned persons, pretending to be just men, that they might take hold of him in [his] language, so that they might deliver him up to the power and authority of the governor.
Καὶ παρατηρήσαντες ἀπέστειλαν ἐγκαθέτους ὑποκρινομένους ἑαυτοὺς δικαίους εἶναι, ἵνα ἐπιλάβωνται αὐτοῦ λόγου, (ὥστε *N(k)O*) παραδοῦναι αὐτὸν τῇ ἀρχῇ καὶ τῇ ἐξουσίᾳ τοῦ ἡγεμόνος.
21 And they asked him saying, Teacher, we know that thou sayest and teachest rightly, and acceptest no [man's] person, but teachest with truth the way of God:
καὶ ἐπηρώτησαν αὐτὸν λέγοντες· διδάσκαλε, οἴδαμεν ὅτι ὀρθῶς λέγεις καὶ διδάσκεις καὶ οὐ λαμβάνεις πρόσωπον ἀλλ᾽ ἐπ᾽ ἀληθείας τὴν ὁδὸν τοῦ θεοῦ διδάσκεις.
22 Is it lawful for us to give tribute to Caesar, or not?
ἔξεστιν (ἡμᾶς *N(k)O*) Καίσαρι φόρον δοῦναι ἢ οὔ;
23 But perceiving their deceit he said to them, Why do ye tempt me?
κατανοήσας δὲ αὐτῶν τὴν πανουργίαν εἶπεν πρὸς αὐτούς (τί *KO*) (με πειράζετε· *K*)
24 Shew me a denarius. Whose image and superscription has it? And answering they said, Caesar's.
(δείξατέ *N(k)O*) μοι δηνάριον· τίνος ἔχει εἰκόνα καὶ ἐπιγραφήν; (οἱ *N(K)O*) δὲ εἶπαν· Καίσαρος.
25 And he said to them, Pay therefore what is Caesar's to Caesar, and what is God's to God.
ὁ δὲ εἶπεν (πρὸς *no*) (αὐτούς· *N(k)O*) τοίνυν ἀπόδοτε τὰ Καίσαρος Καίσαρι καὶ τὰ τοῦ θεοῦ τῷ θεῷ.
26 And they were not able to take hold of him in [his] expressions before the people, and, wondering at his answer, they were silent.
καὶ οὐκ ἴσχυσαν ἐπιλαβέσθαι (αὐτοῦ *NK(o)*) ῥήματος ἐναντίον τοῦ λαοῦ, καὶ θαυμάσαντες ἐπὶ τῇ ἀποκρίσει αὐτοῦ ἐσίγησαν.
27 And some of the Sadducees, who deny that there is any resurrection, coming up [to him],
Προσελθόντες δέ τινες τῶν Σαδδουκαίων, οἱ (ἀντιλέγοντες *NK(o)*) ἀνάστασιν μὴ εἶναι, ἐπηρώτησαν αὐτὸν
28 demanded of him saying, Teacher, Moses wrote to us, If any one's brother, who has a wife, die, and he die childless, his brother shall take the wife and raise up seed to his brother.
λέγοντες· διδάσκαλε, Μωϋσῆς ἔγραψεν ἡμῖν· ἐάν τινος ἀδελφὸς ἀποθάνῃ ἔχων γυναῖκα καὶ οὗτος ἄτεκνος (ᾖ, *N(K)O*) ἵνα λάβῃ ὁ ἀδελφὸς αὐτοῦ τὴν γυναῖκα καὶ ἐξαναστήσῃ σπέρμα τῷ ἀδελφῷ αὐτοῦ.
29 There were then seven brethren: and the first, having taken a wife, died childless;
ἑπτὰ οὖν ἀδελφοὶ ἦσαν· καὶ ὁ πρῶτος λαβὼν γυναῖκα ἀπέθανεν ἄτεκνος,
30 and the second [took the woman, and he died childless];
καὶ (ἔλαβεν *K*) ὁ δεύτερος (τὴν γυναῖκα καὶ οὑτὸς ἀπέθανεν ἄτεκνος *K*)
31 and the third took her: and in like manner also the seven left no children and died;
καὶ ὁ τρίτος ἔλαβεν αὐτήν (ὡσαύτως, *o*) ὡσαύτως δὲ καὶ οἱ ἑπτὰ οὐ κατέλιπον τέκνα καὶ ἀπέθανον.
32 and last of all the woman also died.
ὕστερον (δὲ πάντων *K*) καὶ ἡ γυνὴ ἀπέθανεν.
33 In the resurrection therefore of which of them does she become wife, for the seven had her as wife?
(ἡ γυνὴ *no*) οὖν ἐν τῇ ἀναστάσει, τίνος αὐτῶν γίνεται γυνή; οἱ γὰρ ἑπτὰ ἔσχον αὐτὴν γυναῖκα.
Καὶ (ἀποκριθεὶς *k*) εἶπεν αὐτοῖς ὁ Ἰησοῦς· οἱ υἱοὶ τοῦ αἰῶνος τούτου γαμοῦσιν καὶ (γαμίσκονται, *N(k)O*) (aiōn g165)
35 but they who are counted worthy to have part in that world, and the resurrection from among [the] dead, neither marry nor are given in marriage; (aiōn g165)
οἱ δὲ καταξιωθέντες τοῦ αἰῶνος ἐκείνου τυχεῖν καὶ τῆς ἀναστάσεως τῆς ἐκ νεκρῶν οὔτε γαμοῦσιν οὔτε (γαμίζονται· *N(k)(o)*) (aiōn g165)
36 for neither can they die any more, for they are equal to angels, and are sons of God, being sons of the resurrection.
(οὐδὲ *N(k)O*) γὰρ ἀποθανεῖν ἔτι δύνανται, ἰσάγγελοι γάρ εἰσιν, καὶ υἱοί εἰσιν (τοῦ *k*) θεοῦ τῆς ἀναστάσεως υἱοὶ ὄντες.
37 But that the dead rise, even Moses shewed in [the section of] the bush, when he called [the] Lord the God of Abraham and the God of Isaac and the God of Jacob;
ὅτι δὲ ἐγείρονται οἱ νεκροί, καὶ Μωϋσῆς ἐμήνυσεν ἐπὶ τῆς βάτου ὡς λέγει κύριον τὸν θεὸν Ἀβραὰμ καὶ (τὸν *k*) θεὸν Ἰσαὰκ καὶ (τὸν *k*) θεὸν Ἰακώβ.
38 but he is not God of [the] dead but of [the] living; for all live for him.
θεὸς δὲ οὐκ ἔστιν νεκρῶν ἀλλὰ ζώντων· πάντες γὰρ αὐτῷ ζῶσιν.
39 And some of the scribes answering said, Teacher, thou hast well spoken.
Ἀποκριθέντες δέ τινες τῶν γραμματέων εἶπαν· διδάσκαλε, καλῶς εἶπας.
40 For they did not dare any more to ask him anything.
οὐκέτι οὐκέτι (γὰρ *N(k)O*) ἐτόλμων ἐπερωτᾶν αὐτὸν οὐδέν.
41 And he said to them, How do they say that the Christ is David's son,
Εἶπεν δὲ πρὸς αὐτούς· πῶς λέγουσιν τὸν χριστὸν εἶναι Δαυὶδ υἱόν;
42 and David himself says in the book of Psalms, The Lord said to my Lord, Sit at my right hand
(καὶ *ko*) αὐτὸς (γὰρ *no*) Δαυὶδ λέγει ἐν βίβλῳ ψαλμῶν· εἶπεν (ὁ *ko*) κύριος τῷ κυρίῳ μου· κάθου ἐκ δεξιῶν μου
43 until I put thine enemies [as] footstool of thy feet?
ἕως ἂν θῶ τοὺς ἐχθρούς σου ὑποπόδιον τῶν ποδῶν σου.
44 David therefore calls him Lord, and how is he his son?
Δαυὶδ οὖν κύριον αὐτὸν καλεῖ, καὶ πῶς αὐτοῦ υἱός ἐστιν;
45 And, as all the people were listening, he said to his disciples,
Ἀκούοντος δὲ παντὸς τοῦ λαοῦ εἶπεν τοῖς μαθηταῖς αὐτοῦ·
46 Beware of the scribes, who like to walk about in long robes, and who love salutations in the market-places, and first seats in the synagogues, and first places at suppers;
προσέχετε ἀπὸ τῶν γραμματέων τῶν θελόντων περιπατεῖν ἐν στολαῖς καὶ φιλούντων ἀσπασμοὺς ἐν ταῖς ἀγοραῖς καὶ πρωτοκαθεδρίας ἐν ταῖς συναγωγαῖς καὶ πρωτοκλισίας ἐν τοῖς δείπνοις,
47 who devour the houses of widows, and as a pretext make long prayers. These shall receive a severer judgment.
οἳ κατεσθίουσιν τὰς οἰκίας τῶν χηρῶν καὶ προφάσει μακρὰ προσεύχονται· οὗτοι λήμψονται περισσότερον κρίμα.
