Mark 12
1 He began to speak to them in parables. "A man planted a vineyard, put a hedge around it, dug a pit for the winepress, built a tower, rented it out to a farmer, and went on a journey.
And He began to them in parables (to speak: *N(k)O*) A vineyard a man planted and he placed around [it] a fence and dug a wine vat and built a tower and rented out it to farmers and traveled abroad
2 When it was time, he sent a servant to the farmer to get from the farmer his share of the fruit of the vineyard.
And he sent to the farmers at the due time a servant that from the farmers he may receive from (the fruits *N(k)O*) of the vineyard.
3 They took him, beat him, and sent him away empty.
(*k*) (But *N(k)O*) having taken him they beat [him] and they sent [him] away empty-handed.
4 Again, he sent another servant to them; and they wounded him in the head, and treated him shamefully.
And again he sent to them another servant; and him and him (stoning *K*) they struck on the head and (sent *K*) (dishonored. *N(k)O*)
5 And he sent another; and they killed him; and many others, beating some, and killing some.
And (again *k*) another He sent; and him and him they killed, also many others, (some *N(k)O*) indeed beating, (some *N(k)O*) however killing.
6 He had one left, a beloved son, he sent him last to them, saying, 'They will respect my son.'
Yet (therefore *K*) one (did have *N(k)O*) son beloved (of him; *k*) he sent (and *k*) him last to them saying that They will have respect for the son of mine.
7 But those farmers said among themselves, 'This is the heir. Come, let us kill him, and the inheritance will be ours.'
Those however farmers to themselves they said that This is the heir; come let us kill him, and ours will be the inheritance.
8 They took him, killed him, and cast him out of the vineyard.
And having taken they killed him and cast forth him outside the vineyard.
9 What therefore will the lord of the vineyard do? He will come and destroy the farmers, and will give the vineyard to others.
What therefore will do the master of the vineyard? he will come and he will destroy the farmers and will give the vineyard to others.
10 Haven't you even read this Scripture: 'The stone which the builders rejected, the same was made the head of the corner.
Not even Scripture this have you read: [The] stone which rejected those building, this has become the chief of [the] corner;
11 This was from the Lord. It is marvelous in our eyes'?"
from [the] Lord was this, and it is marvelous in [the] eyes of us.’?
12 They tried to seize him, but they feared the crowd; for they perceived that he spoke the parable against them. They left him, and went away.
And they were seeking Him to lay hold of and they feared the crowd; they knew for that against them the parable He had spoken. And having left Him they went away.
13 They sent some of the Pharisees and of the Herodians to him, that they might trap him with words.
And they send to Him some of the Pharisees and of the Herodians that Him they may catch in discourse.
14 When they had come, they asked him, "Teacher, we know that you are honest, and do not defer to anyone; for you are not partial to anyone, but truly teach the way of God. Is it lawful to pay taxes to Caesar, or not?
(*k*) (And *N(k)O*) having come they say to Him; Teacher, we know that true You are and not there is care to You about no [one]; not for You look on [the] appearance of men but on the basis of [the] truth the way of God teach. Is it lawful to give tribute to Caesar or not?
15 Should we pay, or should we not pay?" But he, knowing their hypocrisy, said to them, "Why do you test me? Bring me a denarius, that I may see it."
shall we pay or not shall we pay? And knowing of them the hypocrisy He said to them; Why Me do you test? do bring Me a denarius that I may see [it].
16 They brought it. He said to them, "Whose is this image and inscription?" They said to him, "Caesar's."
And they brought [it]. And He says to them; Of whom [is] likeness this and the inscription? And they said to Him; Caesar’s.
17 And Jesus said to them, "Render to Caesar the things that are Caesar's, and to God the things that are God's." And they were utterly amazed at him.
(and answering *k*) (And *no*) Jesus said to them; the [things] of Caesar do give back to Caesar and the [things] of God to God. And (they were amazed *N(k)(o)*) at Him.
18 There came to him Sadducees, who say that there is no resurrection. They asked him, saying,
And come Sadducees to Him who say a resurrection not being and (they were questioning *N(k)O*) Him saying;
19 "Teacher, Moses wrote to us, 'If a man's brother dies, and leaves a wife behind him, and leaves no children, that his brother should take the wife, and raise up offspring for his brother.'
Teacher, Moses wrote for us that if of anyone a brother shall die and he may leave behind a wife and not may leave (child *N(K)O*) that shall take the brother of him the wife (of him *k*) and may raise up seed for the brother of him.
20 There were seven brothers. The first took a wife, and dying left no offspring.
Seven brothers there were; and the first took a wife and dying not he left seed.
21 The second took her, and died, leaving no children behind him. The third likewise;
And the second took her and died (and *k*) (not *N(k)O*) (he himself *k*) (having left *N(k)O*) seed and the third likewise;
22 and the seven left no children. Last of all the woman also died.
And (took her *k*) the seven (and *k*) not left offspring. (Last *N(k)O*) of all also the woman died.
23 In the resurrection, when they rise, whose wife will she be of them? For the seven had her as a wife."
In the (therefore *K*) resurrection when they may rise of which of them will she be wife? For the seven had her as wife.
24 Jesus said to them, "Is not this because you are mistaken, not knowing the Scriptures, nor the power of God?
(and *k*) (Was saying *N(k)O*) to them Jesus (said: *k*) Surely because of this do you err not knowing the Scriptures nor [knowing] the power of God?
25 For when they will rise from the dead, they neither marry, nor are given in marriage, but are like angels in heaven.
When for out from [the] dead they may rise, neither do they marry nor are given in marriage but are like angels (*ko*) in the heavens.
26 But about the dead, that they are raised; have you not read in the book of Moses, about the bush, how God spoke to him, saying, 'I am the God of Abraham, and the God of Isaac, and the God of Jacob'?
Concerning now the dead that they rise, surely you have read in the book of Moses on (the *N(k)O*) bush (how *N(k)O*) spoke to him God saying; I myself [am] the God of Abraham and the God of Isaac and the God of Jacob’?
27 He is not the God of the dead, but of the living. You are therefore badly mistaken."
Not He is (the *k*) God of [the] dead but (God *k*) of [the] living; (you yourselves therefore *KO*) Greatly you err.
28 And one of the scribes came, and heard them questioning together. Seeing that he had answered them well, asked him, "Which commandment is the greatest of all?"
And having come up one of the scribes, having heard when they are reasoning together, (seeing *N(k)O*) that well He answered them he questioned Him; Which is commandment [the] first (of all *N(k)O*)
29 Jesus answered, "The first is, 'Hear, Israel, the Lord our God, the Lord is one.
(now *k*) Answered Jesus (to him *ko*) The first (is *no*) (of all *K(o)*) (commandments: *K*) do listen O Israel: [The] Lord the God of us [the] Lord One is;
30 And you are to love the Lord your God with all your heart, and with all your soul, and with all your mind, and with all your strength.'
and you will love [the] Lord the God of you with all the heart of you and with all the soul of you and with all the mind of you and with all the strength of you.’ (this first commandment. *KO*)
31 The second is this, 'You are to love your neighbor as yourself.' There is no other commandment greater than these."
(and *ko*) [The] second (like *KO*) this: You will love the neighbour of you as yourself.’ Greater than these another commandment not there is.
32 The scribe said to him, "Truly, Teacher, you have said well that he is one, and there is none other but he,
And said to Him the scribe; Right, Teacher, according to truth You have spoken that One He is (God *K*) and not there is another besides Him.
33 and to love him with all the heart, and with all the understanding, and with all the soul, and with all the strength, and to love his neighbor as himself, is more important than all whole burnt offerings and sacrifices."
and to love Him with all the heart and with all the understanding (and from all soul *KO*) and with all the strength and to love the neighbour as oneself (more excessive *N(K)O*) is than all the burnt offerings and (*k*) sacrifices.
34 When Jesus saw that he answered wisely, he said to him, "You are not far from the kingdom of God." No one dared ask him any question after that.
And Jesus having seen him that wisely he answered He said to him; Not far are you from the kingdom of God. And no [one] no longer no longer was daring Him to question.
35 Jesus responded, as he taught in the temple, "How can the scribes say that the Christ is the son of David?
And answering Jesus was saying teaching in the temple; How say the scribes that the Christ [the] son of David is?
36 David himself said in the Holy Spirit, 'The Lord said to my Lord, "Sit at my right hand, until I make your enemies the footstool of your feet."'
Himself (for *ko*) David said by the Spirit Holy: (Said *NK(o)*) (the *ko*) Lord to the Lord of me; (do sit *NK(o)*) at [the] right hand of Me until when I may place of the enemies of You (under *N(k)O*) of the feet of You.’
37 David himself calls him Lord, so how can he be his son?" The common people heard him gladly.
Himself (therefore *K*) David names Him Lord, then how of him is He son? And the great crowd was listening to Him gladly.
38 In his teaching he said to them, "Beware of the scribes, who like to walk in long robes, and to get greetings in the marketplaces,
And (to them *k*) in the teaching of Him He was saying; do beware of the scribes who are desiring in robes to walk about and greetings in the marketplaces
39 and the best seats in the synagogues, and the best places at feasts:
and first seats in the synagogues and first places at the feasts,
40 those who devour widows' houses, and for a pretense make long prayers. These will receive greater condemnation."
those devouring the houses of the widows and as a pretext at great length praying, These will receive more excessive judgment.
41 And he sat down opposite the treasury, and saw how the crowd cast money into the treasury. Many who were rich cast in much.
And having sat down (Jesus *k*) (opposite *NK(o)*) the treasury He was watching how the crowd cast money into the treasury. and many rich were casting [in] much;
42 A poor widow came, and she cast in two lepta, which equal a kodrantes.
And having come one widow poor she cast [in] lepta two which is a kodrantes.
43 He called his disciples to himself, and said to them, "Truly I tell you, this poor widow gave more than all those who are giving into the treasury,
And having called to [Him] the disciples of Him (He says *N(k)O*) to them; Amen I say to you that widow this poor more than all (has cast [in] *N(k)O*) of those (casting *N(k)O*) into the treasury;
44 for they all gave out of their abundance, but she, out of her poverty, gave all that she had to live on."
All for out of that which is abounding to them cast [in], she however out of the poverty of her all as much as she had cast [in], all the livelihood of her.
