Mark 12
1 And he began to be speaking unto them, in parables, —A man planted, a vineyard, and put round it a wall, and digged a wine-vat, and built a tower, —and let it out to husbandmen; and left home.
And he began to speake vnto them in parables, A certaine man planted a vineyard, and copassed it with an hedge, and digged a pit for the winepresse, and built a tower in it, and let it out to husbandmen, and went into a strange countrey.
2 And he sent forth, unto the husbandmen, in the season, a servant, that, from the husbandmen, he might receive of the fruits of the vineyard;
And at the time, he sent to the husbandmen a seruant, that he might receiue of the husbandmen of the fruite of the vineyard.
3 and, taking him, they beat him, and sent him away, empty.
But they tooke him, and beat him, and sent him away emptie.
4 And, again, sent he forth unto them, another servant; and, him, they smote on the head, and dishonoured.
And againe he sent vnto them another seruant, and at him they cast stones, and brake his head, and sent him away shamefully handled.
5 And another sent he forth; and, him, they slew. And many others; some, indeed beating, and, others, slaying.
And againe he sent another, and him they slew, and many other, beating some, and killing some.
6 Yet one, had he, a son beloved: he sent him forth last unto them, saying—They will pay deference unto my son!
Yet had he one sonne, his deare beloued: him also he sent the last vnto them, saying, They will reuerence my sonne.
7 But, those husbandmen, unto themselves, said—This, is the heir: Come! let us slay him, and, ours, shall be, the inheritance.
But ye husbandmen said among themselues, This is the heire: come, let vs kill him, and the inheritance shalbe ours.
8 And, taking, they slew him, and cast him forth outside the vineyard.
So they tooke him, and killed him, and cast him out of the vineyard.
9 What will the lord of the vineyard do? He will come, and destroy the husbandmen, and let the vineyard unto others.
What shall then the Lord of the vineyard doe? He will come and destroy these husbandmen, and giue the vineyard to others.
10 Have ye not, this scripture, read—A stone which the builders rejected, the same, hath become head of the corner!
Haue ye not read so much as this Scripture? The stone which the builders did refuse, is made the head of the corner.
11 From the Lord, hath this come to pass, and is marvellous in our eyes?
This was done of the Lord, and it is marueilous in our eyes.
12 And they were seeking, to secure, him, —and were in fear of the multitude; for they perceived that, against them, the parable he had spoken. And, leaving him, they departed.
Then they went about to take him, but they feared the people: for they perceiued that he spake that parable against them: therefore they left him, and went their way.
13 And they send forth unto him certain of the Pharisees and of the Herodians, that they might, catch, him, in discourse.
And they sent vnto him certaine of the Pharises, and of ye Herodians that they might take him in his talke.
14 And, coming, they say unto him—Teacher! we know that, true, thou art, and it concerneth thee not about anyone, —for thou lookest not unto the face of men; but, in truth, the way of God, dost teach: —Is it allowable to give tax unto Caesar, or not? Should we give, or should we not give?
And when they came, they saide vnto him, Master, we know that thou art true, and carest for no man: for thou considerest not the person of men, but teachest the way of God truely, Is it lawfull to giue tribute to Cesar, or not?
15 But, he, knowing their hypocrisy, said unto them—Why are ye, tempting, me? Bring me a denary, that I may see it.
Should we giue it, or should we not giue it? but he knew their hypocrisie, and said vnto them, Why tempt ye me? Bring me a peny, that I may see it.
16 And, they, brought one. And he saith unto them—Whose, is this image, and the inscription? And, they, said unto him—Caesar’s.
So they brought it, and he said vnto them, Whose is this image and superscription? and they said vnto him, Cesars.
17 And, Jesus, said—the things of Caesar, render, unto Caesar, and, the things of God, unto God. And they were marvelling at him.
Then Iesus answered, and saide vnto them, Giue to Cesar the things that are Cesars, and to God, those that are Gods: and they marueiled at him.
18 And there come Sadducees unto him, —who, indeed say—Resurrection, there is none! and they were questioning him, saying—
Then came the Sadduces vnto him, (which say, there is no resurrection) and they asked him, saying,
19 Teacher! Moses, wrote for us, that—If one’s brother die, and leave behind a wife, and leave no child, that his brother should take his wife, and raise up seed unto his brother.
Master, Moses wrote vnto vs, If any mans brother die, and leaue his wife, and leaue no children, that his brother should take his wife, and rayse vp seede vnto his brother.
20 Seven brethren, there were: and, the first, took a wife, and, dying, left no seed, —
There were seuen brethren, and the first tooke a wife, and when he died, left no issue.
21 And, the second, took her, and died, not leaving behind seed, —and, the third, likewise, —
Then the seconde tooke her, and he died, neither did he yet leaue issue, and the third likewise:
22 And, the seven, left no seed; last of all, the woman also, died: —
So those seuen had her, and left no yssue: last of all the wife died also.
23 In the resurrection, —of, which, of them shall she be, wife? For, the seven, had her to wife.
In the resurrection then, when they shall rise againe, whose wife shall she be of them? for seuen had her to wife.
24 Jesus said unto them—Are ye not, for this cause, deceiving yourselves, knowing neither the Scriptures, nor the power of God?
Then Iesus answered, and saide vnto them, Are ye not therefore deceiued, because ye knowe not the Scriptures, neither the power of God?
25 For, when, from among the dead, they rise, they neither marry, nor are given in marriage, but are like messengers in the heavens.
For when they shall rise againe from the dead, neither men marry, nor wiues are married, but are as the Angels which are in heauen.
26 But, as touching the dead, that they, do rise, —Have ye not read in the book of Moses, at the Bush, how God spake unto him, saying—I [am] the God of Abraham, and God of Isaac, and God of Jacob: —
And as touching the dead, that they shall rise againe, haue ye not read in the booke of Moses, howe in the bush God spake vnto him, saying, I am the God of Abraham, and the God of Isaac, and the God of Iacob?
27 He is not a God of, dead, men, but of, living. Greatly, are ye deceiving yourselves.
God is not ye God of the dead, but the God of the liuing. Ye are therefore greatly deceiued.
28 And one of the Scribes, coming near, hearing them discussing, seeing that, well, he had answered them, began to question him—Which is the chief commandment of all?
Then came one of the Scribes that had heard them disputing together, and perceiuing that he had answered them well, he asked him, Which is the first commandement of all?
29 Jesus answered—The chief is: Hear! O Israel, —The Lord our God, is, one Lord;
Iesus answered him, The first of all the commandements is, Heare, Israel, The Lord our God is the onely Lord.
30 Therefore shalt thou love the Lord thy God, with all thy heart, and with all thy soul, —and with all thy mind; and with all thy strength.
Thou shalt therefore loue the Lord thy God with all thine heart, and with all thy soule, and with all thy minde, and with all thy strength: this is the first commandement.
31 The second, is, this—Thou shalt love, thy neighbour, as thyself. Greater than these, other commandment, is there none.
And the second is like, that is, Thou shalt loue thy neighbour as thy selfe. There is none other commandement greater then these.
32 The Scribe said unto him—Well, Teacher! in truth, hast thou said—He is, One, and there is none other, than he;
Then that Scribe said vnto him, Well, Master, thou hast saide the trueth, that there is one God, and that there is none but he,
33 And, to love him, with all the heart, and with all the understanding, —and with all the might; and to love one’s neighbour as one’s self, is, abundantly more, than all the whole burnt offerings and sacrifices.
And to loue him with all the heart, and with all the vnderstanding, and with all the soule, and with all the strength, and to loue his neighbour as himselfe, is more then all whole burnt offerings and sacrifices.
34 And, Jesus, seeing him, that, with intelligence he answered, said unto him—Not far, [art thou] from the kingdom of God! And, no one, any longer, was daring to, question, him.
Then when Iesus saw that he answered discreetely, he saide vnto him, Thou art not farre from the kingdome of God. And no man after that durst aske him any question.
35 And Jesus, answering, was saying, as he taught in the temple—How say the Scribes that, the Christ, is, Son of David?
And Iesus answered and said teaching in the Temple, Howe say the Scribes that Christ is the sonne of Dauid?
36 David himself, hath said, by the Holy Spirit, —The Lord, hath said unto, my Lord, Sit thou on my right hand, until I put thy foes beneath thy feet.
For Dauid himselfe said by ye holy Ghost, The Lord said to my Lord, Sit at my right hand, till I make thine enemies thy footestoole.
37 David himself, calleth him, Lord: whence, then, is he, his own son? And, the great multitude, was hearing him gladly.
Then Dauid himselfe calleth him Lord: by what meanes is he then his sonne? and much people heard him gladly.
38 And, in his teaching, he was saying—Beware of the Scribes, who desire, in robes, to be walking about, and salutations in the markets,
Moreouer he saide vnto them in his doctrine, Beware of the Scribes which loue to goe in long robes, and loue salutations in the markets,
39 And first seats in the synagogues, and first couches in the chief meals, —
And the chiefe seates in the Synagogues, and the first roumes at feastes,
40 Who devour widows’ houses, and, for a pretence, are long in prayer: these, shall receive a more surpassing judgment.
Which deuoure widowes houses, euen vnder a colour of long prayers. These shall receiue the greater damnation.
41 And, taking his seat over against the treasury, he was observing how, the multitude, was casting in copper into the treasury, and, man rich, were casting in, much.
And as Iesus sate ouer against the treasurie, he beheld how the people cast money into the treasurie, and many rich men cast in much.
42 And there came, one destitute, widow, and cast in two mites, which are, a farthing.
And there came a certaine poore widowe, and she threw in two mites, which make a quadrin.
43 And, calling near his disciples, he said to them—Verily, I say unto you, this destitute widow, more than they all, hath cast in, of those casting into the treasury;
Then he called vnto him his disciples, and said vnto them, Verely I say vnto you, that this poore widowe hath cast more in, then all they which haue cast into the treasurie.
44 For, they all, out of their surplus, cast in, but, she, out of her deficiency, all, as much as she had, cast in, —the whole of her living.
For they all did cast in of their superfluitie: but she of her pouertie did cast in all that she had, euen all her liuing.
