< 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.
Καὶ ἤρξατο αὐτοῖς ἐν παραβολαῖς (λαλεῖν· *N(k)O*) ἀμπελῶνα ἄνθρωπος ἐφύτευσεν καὶ περιέθηκεν φραγμὸν καὶ ὤρυξεν ὑπολήνιον καὶ ᾠκοδόμησεν πύργον καὶ ἐξέδετο αὐτὸν γεωργοῖς καὶ ἀπεδήμησεν
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.
καὶ ἀπέστειλεν πρὸς τοὺς γεωργοὺς τῷ καιρῷ δοῦλον ἵνα παρὰ τῶν γεωργῶν λάβῃ ἀπὸ (τῶν καρπῶν *N(k)O*) τοῦ ἀμπελῶνος.
3 They took him, beat him, and sent him away empty.
(οἱ *k*) (καὶ *N(k)O*) λαβόντες αὐτὸν ἔδειραν καὶ ἀπέστειλαν κενόν.
4 Again, he sent another servant to them; and they wounded him in the head, and treated him shamefully.
καὶ πάλιν ἀπέστειλεν πρὸς αὐτοὺς ἄλλον δοῦλον· κἀκεῖνον κἀκεῖνον (λιθοβολήσαντες *K*) ἐκεφαλίωσαν καὶ (ἀπέστειλαν *K*) (ἠτίμασαν. *N(k)O*)
5 And he sent another; and they killed him; and many others, beating some, and killing some.
καὶ (πάλιν *k*) ἄλλον ἀπέστειλεν· κἀκεῖνον κἀκεῖνον ἀπέκτειναν, καὶ πολλοὺς ἄλλους, (οὓς *N(k)O*) μὲν δέροντες, (οὓς *N(k)O*) δὲ ἀποκτέννοντες.
6 He had one left, a beloved son, he sent him last to them, saying, 'They will respect my son.'
ἔτι (οὖν *K*) ἕνα (εἶχεν *N(k)O*) υἱὸν ἀγαπητόν (αὐτοῦ· *k*) ἀπέστειλεν (καὶ *k*) αὐτὸν ἔσχατον πρὸς αὐτοὺς λέγων ὅτι ἐντραπήσονται τὸν υἱόν μου.
7 But those farmers said among themselves, 'This is the heir. Come, let us kill him, and the inheritance will be ours.'
ἐκεῖνοι δὲ οἱ γεωργοὶ πρὸς ἑαυτοὺς εἶπαν ὅτι οὗτός ἐστιν ὁ κληρονόμος· δεῦτε ἀποκτείνωμεν αὐτόν, καὶ ἡμῶν ἔσται ἡ κληρονομία.
8 They took him, killed him, and cast him out of the vineyard.
καὶ λαβόντες ἀπέκτειναν αὐτὸν καὶ ἐξέβαλον αὐτὸν ἔξω τοῦ ἀμπελῶνος.
9 What therefore will the lord of the vineyard do? He will come and destroy the farmers, and will give the vineyard to others.
τί οὖν ποιήσει ὁ κύριος τοῦ ἀμπελῶνος; ἐλεύσεται καὶ ἀπολέσει τοὺς γεωργοὺς καὶ δώσει τὸν ἀμπελῶνα ἄλλοις.
10 Haven't you even read this Scripture: 'The stone which the builders rejected, the same was made the head of the corner.
οὐδὲ τὴν γραφὴν ταύτην ἀνέγνωτε· λίθον ὃν ἀπεδοκίμασαν οἱ οἰκοδομοῦντες, οὗτος ἐγενήθη εἰς κεφαλὴν γωνίας·
11 This was from the Lord. It is marvelous in our eyes'?"
παρὰ κυρίου ἐγένετο αὕτη, καὶ ἔστιν θαυμαστὴ ἐν ὀφθαλμοῖς ἡμῶν;
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.
καὶ ἐζήτουν αὐτὸν κρατῆσαι καὶ ἐφοβήθησαν τὸν ὄχλον· ἔγνωσαν γὰρ ὅτι πρὸς αὐτοὺς τὴν παραβολὴν εἶπεν. καὶ ἀφέντες αὐτὸν ἀπῆλθον.
13 They sent some of the Pharisees and of the Herodians to him, that they might trap him with words.
Καὶ ἀποστέλλουσιν πρὸς αὐτόν τινας τῶν Φαρισαίων καὶ τῶν Ἡρῳδιανῶν ἵνα αὐτὸν ἀγρεύσωσιν λόγῳ.
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?
(οἱ *k*) (καὶ *N(k)O*) ἐλθόντες λέγουσιν αὐτῷ· διδάσκαλε, οἴδαμεν ὅτι ἀληθὴς εἶ καὶ οὐ μέλει σοι περὶ οὐδενός· οὐ γὰρ βλέπεις εἰς πρόσωπον ἀνθρώπων ἀλλ᾽ ἐπ᾽ ἀληθείας τὴν ὁδὸν τοῦ θεοῦ διδάσκεις. ἔξεστιν δοῦναι κῆνσον Καίσαρι ἢ οὔ;
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."
δῶμεν ἢ μὴ δῶμεν; Ὁ δὲ εἰδὼς αὐτῶν τὴν ὑπόκρισιν εἶπεν αὐτοῖς· τί με πειράζετε; φέρετέ μοι δηνάριον ἵνα ἴδω.
16 They brought it. He said to them, "Whose is this image and inscription?" They said to him, "Caesar's."
οἱ δὲ ἤνεγκαν. καὶ λέγει αὐτοῖς· τίνος ἡ εἰκὼν αὕτη καὶ ἡ ἐπιγραφή; οἱ δὲ εἶπαν αὐτῷ· Καίσαρος.
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.
(Καὶ ἀποκριθεὶς *k*) ὁ (δὲ *no*) Ἰησοῦς εἶπεν αὐτοῖς· τὰ Καίσαρος ἀπόδοτε Καίσαρι καὶ τὰ τοῦ θεοῦ τῷ θεῷ. καὶ (ἐξεθαύμαζον *N(k)(o)*) ἐπ᾽ αὐτῷ.
18 There came to him Sadducees, who say that there is no resurrection. They asked him, saying,
Καὶ ἔρχονται Σαδδουκαῖοι πρὸς αὐτὸν οἵτινες λέγουσιν ἀνάστασιν μὴ εἶναι, καὶ (ἐπηρώτων *N(k)O*) αὐτὸν λέγοντες·
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.'
διδάσκαλε, Μωϋσῆς ἔγραψεν ἡμῖν ὅτι ἐάν τινος ἀδελφὸς ἀποθάνῃ καὶ καταλίπῃ γυναῖκα καὶ μὴ ἀφῇ (τέκνον *N(K)O*) ἵνα λάβῃ ὁ ἀδελφὸς αὐτοῦ τὴν γυναῖκα (αὐτοῦ *k*) καὶ ἐξαναστήσῃ σπέρμα τῷ ἀδελφῷ αὐτοῦ.
20 There were seven brothers. The first took a wife, and dying left no offspring.
ἑπτὰ ἀδελφοὶ ἦσαν· καὶ ὁ πρῶτος ἔλαβεν γυναῖκα καὶ ἀποθνῄσκων οὐκ ἀφῆκεν σπέρμα.
21 The second took her, and died, leaving no children behind him. The third likewise;
καὶ ὁ δεύτερος ἔλαβεν αὐτὴν καὶ ἀπέθανεν (καὶ *k*) (μὴ *N(k)O*) (αὐτὸς *k*) (καταλιπὼν *N(k)O*) σπέρμα καὶ ὁ τρίτος ὡσαύτως·
22 and the seven left no children. Last of all the woman also died.
καὶ (ἔλαβον αὐτὴν *k*) οἱ ἑπτὰ (καὶ *k*) οὐκ ἀφῆκαν σπέρμα. (ἔσχατον *N(k)O*) πάντων καὶ ἡ γυνὴ ἀπέθανεν.
23 In the resurrection, when they rise, whose wife will she be of them? For the seven had her as a wife."
ἐν τῇ (οὖν *K*) ἀναστάσει ὅταν ἀναστῶσιν τίνος αὐτῶν ἔσται γυνή; οἱ γὰρ ἑπτὰ ἔσχον αὐτὴν γυναῖκα.
24 Jesus said to them, "Is not this because you are mistaken, not knowing the Scriptures, nor the power of God?
(Καὶ *k*) (ἔφη *N(k)O*) αὐτοῖς ὁ Ἰησοῦς (εἶπεν· *k*) οὐ διὰ τοῦτο πλανᾶσθε μὴ εἰδότες τὰς γραφὰς μηδὲ τὴν δύναμιν τοῦ θεοῦ;
25 For when they will rise from the dead, they neither marry, nor are given in marriage, but are like angels in heaven.
ὅταν γὰρ ἐκ νεκρῶν ἀναστῶσιν, οὔτε γαμοῦσιν οὔτε γαμίζονται ἀλλ᾽ εἰσὶν ὡς ἄγγελοι (οἱ *ko*) ἐν τοῖς οὐρανοῖς.
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'?
περὶ δὲ τῶν νεκρῶν ὅτι ἐγείρονται, οὐκ ἀνέγνωτε ἐν τῇ βίβλῳ Μωϋσέως ἐπὶ (τοῦ *N(k)O*) βάτου (πῶς *N(k)O*) εἶπεν αὐτῷ ὁ θεὸς λέγων· ἐγὼ ὁ θεὸς Ἀβραὰμ καὶ ὁ θεὸς Ἰσαὰκ καὶ ὁ θεὸς Ἰακώβ;
27 He is not the God of the dead, but of the living. You are therefore badly mistaken."
οὐκ ἔστιν (ὁ *k*) θεὸς νεκρῶν ἀλλὰ (θεὸς *k*) ζώντων· (ὑμεῖς οὖν *KO*) πολὺ πλανᾶσθε.
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?"
Καὶ προσελθὼν εἷς τῶν γραμματέων, ἀκούσας αὐτῶν συζητούντων, (ἰδὼν *N(k)O*) ὅτι καλῶς ἀπεκρίθη αὐτοῖς, ἐπηρώτησεν αὐτόν· ποία ἐστὶν ἐντολὴ πρώτη (πάντων; *N(k)O*)
29 Jesus answered, "The first is, 'Hear, Israel, the Lord our God, the Lord is one.
(δὲ *k*) ἀπεκρίθη ὁ Ἰησοῦς (αὐτῷ *ko*) ὅτι πρώτη (ἐστίν *no*) (πασῶν *K(o)*) (τῶν ἐντολῶν· *K*) ἄκουε Ἰσραήλ, κύριος ὁ θεὸς ἡμῶν κύριος εἷς ἐστιν·
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.'
καὶ ἀγαπήσεις κύριον τὸν θεόν σου ἐξ ὅλης τῆς καρδίας σου καὶ ἐξ ὅλης τῆς ψυχῆς σου καὶ ἐξ ὅλης τῆς διανοίας σου καὶ ἐξ ὅλης τῆς ἰσχύος σου. (αὕτη πρώτη ἐντολή. *KO*)
31 The second is this, 'You are to love your neighbor as yourself.' There is no other commandment greater than these."
(καὶ *ko*) δευτέρα (ὁμοία *KO*) αὕτη· ἀγαπήσεις τὸν πλησίον σου ὡς σεαυτόν. μείζων τούτων ἄλλη ἐντολὴ οὐκ ἔστιν.
32 The scribe said to him, "Truly, Teacher, you have said well that he is one, and there is none other but he,
καὶ εἶπεν αὐτῷ ὁ γραμματεύς· καλῶς, διδάσκαλε, ἐπ᾽ ἀληθείας εἶπες ὅτι εἷς ἐστιν (θεὸς *K*) καὶ οὐκ ἔστιν ἄλλος πλὴν αὐτοῦ.
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."
καὶ τὸ ἀγαπᾶν αὐτὸν ἐξ ὅλης τῆς καρδίας καὶ ἐξ ὅλης τῆς συνέσεως (καὶ ἐξ ὅλης τῆς ψυχῆς *KO*) καὶ ἐξ ὅλης τῆς ἰσχύος καὶ τὸ ἀγαπᾶν τὸν πλησίον ὡς ἑαυτὸν (περισσότερόν *N(K)O*) ἐστιν πάντων τῶν ὁλοκαυτωμάτων καὶ (τῶν *k*) θυσιῶν.
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.
καὶ ὁ Ἰησοῦς ἰδὼν αὐτὸν ὅτι νουνεχῶς ἀπεκρίθη εἶπεν αὐτῷ· οὐ μακρὰν εἶ ἀπὸ τῆς βασιλείας τοῦ θεοῦ. καὶ οὐδεὶς οὐκέτι οὐκέτι ἐτόλμα αὐτὸν ἐπερωτῆσαι.
35 Jesus responded, as he taught in the temple, "How can the scribes say that the Messiah is the son of David?
Καὶ ἀποκριθεὶς ὁ Ἰησοῦς ἔλεγεν διδάσκων ἐν τῷ ἱερῷ· πῶς λέγουσιν οἱ γραμματεῖς ὅτι ὁ χριστὸς υἱὸς Δαυίδ ἐστιν;
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."'
αὐτὸς (γὰρ *ko*) Δαυὶδ εἶπεν ἐν τῷ πνεύματι τῷ ἁγίῳ· (εἶπεν *NK(o)*) (ὁ *ko*) κύριος τῷ κυρίῳ μου· (κάθου *NK(o)*) ἐκ δεξιῶν μου ἕως ἂν θῶ τοὺς ἐχθρούς σου (ὑποκάτω *N(k)O*) τῶν ποδῶν σου.
37 David himself calls him Lord, so how can he be his son?" The common people heard him gladly.
αὐτὸς (οὖν *K*) Δαυὶδ λέγει αὐτὸν κύριον, καὶ πόθεν αὐτοῦ ἐστιν υἱός; καὶ ὁ πολὺς ὄχλος ἤκουεν αὐτοῦ ἡδέως.
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,
Καὶ (αὐτοῖς *k*) ἐν τῇ διδαχῇ αὐτοῦ ἔλεγεν· βλέπετε ἀπὸ τῶν γραμματέων τῶν θελόντων ἐν στολαῖς περιπατεῖν καὶ ἀσπασμοὺς ἐν ταῖς ἀγοραῖς
39 and the best seats in the synagogues, and the best places at feasts:
καὶ πρωτοκαθεδρίας ἐν ταῖς συναγωγαῖς καὶ πρωτοκλισίας ἐν τοῖς δείπνοις,
40 those who devour widows' houses, and for a pretense make long prayers. These will receive greater condemnation."
οἱ κατεσθίοντες τὰς οἰκίας τῶν χηρῶν καὶ προφάσει μακρὰ προσευχόμενοι, οὗτοι λήμψονται περισσότερον κρίμα.
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.
Καὶ καθίσας (ὁ Ἰησοῦς *k*) (κατέναντι *NK(o)*) τοῦ γαζοφυλακίου ἐθεώρει πῶς ὁ ὄχλος βάλλει χαλκὸν εἰς τὸ γαζοφυλάκιον. καὶ πολλοὶ πλούσιοι ἔβαλλον πολλά·
42 A poor widow came, and she cast in two lepta, which equal a kodrantes.
καὶ ἐλθοῦσα μία χήρα πτωχὴ ἔβαλεν λεπτὰ δύο ὅ ἐστιν κοδράντης.
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,
καὶ προσκαλεσάμενος τοὺς μαθητὰς αὐτοῦ (εἶπεν *N(k)O*) αὐτοῖς· ἀμὴν λέγω ὑμῖν ὅτι ἡ χήρα αὕτη ἡ πτωχὴ πλεῖον πάντων (ἔβαλεν *N(k)O*) τῶν (βαλλόντων *N(k)O*) εἰς τὸ γαζοφυλάκιον·
44 for they all gave out of their abundance, but she, out of her poverty, gave all that she had to live on."
πάντες γὰρ ἐκ τοῦ περισσεύοντος αὐτοῖς ἔβαλον, αὕτη δὲ ἐκ τῆς ὑστερήσεως αὐτῆς πάντα ὅσα εἶχεν ἔβαλεν, ὅλον τὸν βίον αὐτῆς.
