Luke 20
1 And it came to pass, on one of those days, as He is teaching the people in the temple, and proclaiming good news, the chief priests and the scribes, with the elders, came on [Him],
athaikadā yīśu rmanidare susaṁvādaṁ pracārayan lokānupadiśati, etarhi pradhānayājakā adhyāpakāḥ prāñcaśca tannikaṭamāgatya papracchuḥ
2 and spoke to Him, saying, “Tell us by what authority You do these things? Or who is he that gave to You this authority?”
kayājñayā tvaṁ karmmāṇyetāni karoṣi? ko vā tvāmājñāpayat? tadasmān vada|
3 And He answering said to them, “I will question you—I also—one thing, and tell Me:
sa pratyuvāca, tarhi yuṣmānapi kathāmekāṁ pṛcchāmi tasyottaraṁ vadata|
4 the immersion of John, was it from Heaven, or from men?”
yohano majjanam īśvarasya mānuṣāṇāṁ vājñāto jātaṁ?
5 And they reasoned with themselves, saying, “If we may say, From Heaven, He will say, Why, then, did you not believe him?
tataste mitho vivicya jagaduḥ, yadīśvarasya vadāmastarhi taṁ kuto na pratyaita sa iti vakṣyati|
6 And if we may say, From men, all the people will stone us, for they are having been persuaded John to be a prophet.”
yadi manuṣyasyeti vadāmastarhi sarvve lokā asmān pāṣāṇai rhaniṣyanti yato yohan bhaviṣyadvādīti sarvve dṛḍhaṁ jānanti|
7 And they answered that they did not know from where [it was],
ataeva te pratyūcuḥ kasyājñayā jātam iti vaktuṁ na śaknumaḥ|
8 and Jesus said to them, “Neither do I say to you by what authority I do these things.”
tadā yīśuravadat tarhi kayājñayā karmmāṇyetāti karomīti ca yuṣmān na vakṣyāmi|
9 And He began to speak to the people this allegory: “A certain man planted a vineyard, and gave it out to farmers, and went abroad for a long time,
atha lokānāṁ sākṣāt sa imāṁ dṛṣṭāntakathāṁ vaktumārebhe, kaścid drākṣākṣetraṁ kṛtvā tat kṣetraṁ kṛṣīvalānāṁ hasteṣu samarpya bahukālārthaṁ dūradeśaṁ jagāma|
10 and at the season he sent a servant to the farmers, that they may give to him from the fruit of the vineyard, but the farmers having beat him, sent [him] away empty.
atha phalakāle phalāni grahītu kṛṣīvalānāṁ samīpe dāsaṁ prāhiṇot kintu kṛṣīvalāstaṁ prahṛtya riktahastaṁ visasarjuḥ|
11 And he added to send another servant, and they also having beaten and dishonored that one, sent [him] away empty;
tataḥ sodhipatiḥ punaranyaṁ dāsaṁ preṣayāmāsa, te tamapi prahṛtya kuvyavahṛtya riktahastaṁ visasṛjuḥ|
12 and he added to send a third, and this one also, having wounded, they cast out.
tataḥ sa tṛtīyavāram anyaṁ prāhiṇot te tamapi kṣatāṅgaṁ kṛtvā bahi rnicikṣipuḥ|
13 And the owner of the vineyard said, What will I do? I will send my son, the beloved, perhaps having seen this one, they will respect [him];
tadā kṣetrapati rvicārayāmāsa, mamedānīṁ kiṁ karttavyaṁ? mama priye putre prahite te tamavaśyaṁ dṛṣṭvā samādariṣyante|
14 and having seen him, the farmers reasoned among themselves, saying, This is the heir; come, we may kill him, that the inheritance may become ours;
kintu kṛṣīvalāstaṁ nirīkṣya parasparaṁ vivicya procuḥ, ayamuttarādhikārī āgacchatainaṁ hanmastatodhikārosmākaṁ bhaviṣyati|
15 and having cast him outside of the vineyard, they killed [him]; what, then, will the owner of the vineyard do to them?
tataste taṁ kṣetrād bahi rnipātya jaghnustasmāt sa kṣetrapatistān prati kiṁ kariṣyati?
16 He will come, and destroy these farmers, and will give the vineyard to others.” And having heard, they said, “Let it not be!”
sa āgatya tān kṛṣīvalān hatvā pareṣāṁ hasteṣu tatkṣetraṁ samarpayiṣyati; iti kathāṁ śrutvā te 'vadan etādṛśī ghaṭanā na bhavatu|
17 And He, having looked on them, said, “What, then, is this that has been written: A stone that the builders rejected—this became head of a corner?
kintu yīśustānavalokya jagāda, tarhi, sthapatayaḥ kariṣyanti grāvāṇaṁ yantu tucchakaṁ| pradhānaprastaraḥ koṇe sa eva hi bhaviṣyati| etasya śāstrīyavacanasya kiṁ tātparyyaṁ?
18 Everyone who has fallen on that stone will be broken, and on whom it may fall, it will crush him to pieces.”
aparaṁ tatpāṣāṇopari yaḥ patiṣyati sa bhaṁkṣyate kintu yasyopari sa pāṣāṇaḥ patiṣyati sa tena dhūlivac cūrṇībhaviṣyati|
19 And the chief priests and the scribes sought to lay hands on Him in that hour, and they feared the people, for they knew that He spoke this allegory against them.
sosmākaṁ viruddhaṁ dṛṣṭāntamimaṁ kathitavān iti jñātvā pradhānayājakā adhyāpakāśca tadaiva taṁ dhartuṁ vavāñchuḥ kintu lokebhyo bibhyuḥ|
20 And having watched [Him], they sent forth ones lying in wait, feigning themselves to be righteous, that they might take hold of His word, to deliver Him up to the rule and to the authority of the governor,
ataeva taṁ prati satarkāḥ santaḥ kathaṁ tadvākyadoṣaṁ dhṛtvā taṁ deśādhipasya sādhuveśadhāriṇaścarān tasya samīpe preṣayāmāsuḥ|
21 and they questioned Him, saying, “Teacher, we have known that You say and teach correctly, and do not receive a person, but in truth teach the way of God.
tadā te taṁ papracchuḥ, he upadeśaka bhavān yathārthaṁ kathayan upadiśati, kamapyanapekṣya satyatvenaiśvaraṁ mārgamupadiśati, vayametajjānīmaḥ|
22 Is it lawful to us to give tribute to Caesar or not?”
kaisararājāya karosmābhi rdeyo na vā?
23 And He, having perceived their craftiness, said to them, “Why do you tempt Me?
sa teṣāṁ vañcanaṁ jñātvāvadat kuto māṁ parīkṣadhve? māṁ mudrāmekaṁ darśayata|
24 Show Me a denarius; of whom does it have an image and inscription?” And they answering said, “Of Caesar”:
iha likhitā mūrtiriyaṁ nāma ca kasya? te'vadan kaisarasya|
25 and He said to them, “Give back, therefore, the things of Caesar to Caesar, and the things of God to God”;
tadā sa uvāca, tarhi kaisarasya dravyaṁ kaisarāya datta; īśvarasya tu dravyamīśvarāya datta|
26 and they were not able to take hold on His saying before the people, and having wondered at His answer, they were silent.
tasmāllokānāṁ sākṣāt tatkathāyāḥ kamapi doṣaṁ dhartumaprāpya te tasyottarād āścaryyaṁ manyamānā mauninastasthuḥ|
27 And certain of the Sadducees, who are denying that there is a resurrection, having come near, questioned Him,
aparañca śmaśānādutthānānaṅgīkāriṇāṁ sidūkināṁ kiyanto janā āgatya taṁ papracchuḥ,
28 saying, “Teacher, Moses wrote to us if anyone’s brother may die, having a wife, and he may die childless—that his brother may take the wife, and may raise up seed to his brother.
he upadeśaka śāstre mūsā asmān pratīti lilekha yasya bhrātā bhāryyāyāṁ satyāṁ niḥsantāno mriyate sa tajjāyāṁ vivahya tadvaṁśam utpādayiṣyati|
29 There were, then, seven brothers, and the first having taken a wife, died childless,
tathāca kecit sapta bhrātara āsan teṣāṁ jyeṣṭho bhrātā vivahya nirapatyaḥ prāṇān jahau|
30 and the second took the wife, and he died childless,
atha dvitīyastasya jāyāṁ vivahya nirapatyaḥ san mamāra| tṛtīyaśca tāmeva vyuvāha;
31 and the third took her, and in like manner also the seven—they left no children, and they died;
itthaṁ sapta bhrātarastāmeva vivahya nirapatyāḥ santo mamruḥ|
32 and last of all the woman also died:
śeṣe sā strī ca mamāra|
33 in the resurrection, then, of which of them does she become wife? For the seven had her as wife.”
ataeva śmaśānādutthānakāle teṣāṁ saptajanānāṁ kasya sā bhāryyā bhaviṣyati? yataḥ sā teṣāṁ saptānāmeva bhāryyāsīt|
34 And Jesus answering said to them, “The sons of this age marry and are given in marriage, (aiōn g165)
tadā yīśuḥ pratyuvāca, etasya jagato lokā vivahanti vāgdattāśca bhavanti (aiōn g165)
35 but those accounted worthy to obtain that age, and the resurrection that is out of the dead, neither marry, nor are they given in marriage; (aiōn g165)
kintu ye tajjagatprāptiyogyatvena gaṇitāṁ bhaviṣyanti śmaśānāccotthāsyanti te na vivahanti vāgdattāśca na bhavanti, (aiōn g165)
36 for neither are they able to die anymore—for they are like messengers—and they are sons of God, being sons of the resurrection.
te puna rna mriyante kintu śmaśānādutthāpitāḥ santa īśvarasya santānāḥ svargīyadūtānāṁ sadṛśāśca bhavanti|
37 And that the dead are raised, even Moses showed at the Bush, since he calls the LORD the God of Abraham, and the God of Isaac, and the God of Jacob;
adhikantu mūsāḥ stambopākhyāne parameśvara ībrāhīma īśvara ishāka īśvaro yākūbaśceśvara ityuktvā mṛtānāṁ śmaśānād utthānasya pramāṇaṁ lilekha|
38 and He is not a God of dead men, but of living, for all live to Him.”
ataeva ya īśvaraḥ sa mṛtānāṁ prabhu rna kintu jīvatāmeva prabhuḥ, tannikaṭe sarvve jīvantaḥ santi|
39 And certain of the scribes answering said, “Teacher, You said well”;
iti śrutvā kiyantodhyāpakā ūcuḥ, he upadeśaka bhavān bhadraṁ pratyuktavān|
40 and they no longer dared question Him anything.
itaḥ paraṁ taṁ kimapi praṣṭaṁ teṣāṁ pragalbhatā nābhūt|
41 And He said to them, “How do they say the Christ is [the] son of David,
paścāt sa tān uvāca, yaḥ khrīṣṭaḥ sa dāyūdaḥ santāna etāṁ kathāṁ lokāḥ kathaṁ kathayanti?
42 and David himself says in [the] Scroll of Psalms, The LORD said to my Lord, Sit on My right hand,
yataḥ mama prabhumidaṁ vākyamavadat parameśvaraḥ| tava śatrūnahaṁ yāvat pādapīṭhaṁ karomi na| tāvat kālaṁ madīye tvaṁ dakṣapārśva upāviśa|
43 Until I will make Your enemies Your footstool;
iti kathāṁ dāyūd svayaṁ gītagranthe'vadat|
44 David, then, calls Him Lord, and how is He his son?”
ataeva yadi dāyūd taṁ prabhuṁ vadati, tarhi sa kathaṁ tasya santāno bhavati?
45 And all the people hearing, He said to His disciples,
paścād yīśuḥ sarvvajanānāṁ karṇagocare śiṣyānuvāca,
46 “Take heed of the scribes, who are wishing to walk in long robes, and are cherishing salutations in the markets, and first seats in the synagogues, and first couches at the banquets,
ye'dhyāpakā dīrghaparicchadaṁ paridhāya bhramanti, haṭṭāpaṇayo rnamaskāre bhajanagehasya proccāsane bhojanagṛhasya pradhānasthāne ca prīyante
47 who devour the houses of the widows, and make long prayers for a pretense, these will receive more abundant judgment.”
vidhavānāṁ sarvvasvaṁ grasitvā chalena dīrghakālaṁ prārthayante ca teṣu sāvadhānā bhavata, teṣāmugradaṇḍo bhaviṣyati|
