Luke 20
1 And it came to pass on one of the days (of those *k*) when is teaching He the people in the temple and evangelising came up the (chief priests *NK(o)*) and the scribes with the elders
Now it happened on one of those days, as He was teaching and evangelizing the people in the temple, that the priests and scribes came to Him with the elders
2 and spoke saying to Him: do tell us by what authority these things You do or who is the [one] having given to You authority this?
and addressed Him, saying, “Tell us by what authority you are doing these things; or who is he who gave you this authority?”
3 Answering now He said to them; Will ask you I myself also I myself also (one *k*) thing, and do tell Me:
But in answer He said to them: “I also will ask you one thing; yes, tell me:
4 The baptism of John from heaven was it or from men?
the baptism of John—was it from heaven or from men?”
5 And they reasoned among themselves saying that If we shall say: From heaven, He will say; Because of why (therefore *K*) not did you believe in him?
So they reasoned among themselves, saying: “If we say, ‘From heaven,’ he will say, ‘Why did you not believe him?’
6 If however we shall say; From men, the people (all *N(k)O*) will stone us; persuaded for they are John a prophet to be.
But if we say, ‘From men,’ all the people will stone us, for they are persuaded that John was a prophet.”
7 And they answered not to know from where.
So they answered that they did not know where it was from.
8 And Jesus said to them; Neither I myself tell you by what authority these things I am doing.
And Jesus said to them, “Neither will I tell you by what authority I do these things.”
9 He began then to the people to speak parable this: A man (certain *NK*) planted a vineyard and rented it to farmers and went abroad a time long.
Then He began to tell the people this parable: “A man planted a vineyard, leased it to farmers, and went away on a long journey.
10 And (in *k*) [in the] season he sent to the farmers a servant that from the fruit of the vineyard (they will give *N(k)O*) to him; But the farmers sent away him having beaten [him] empty-handed.
At the proper time he sent a slave to the farmers, that they might give him some of the fruit of the vineyard. But the farmers flogged him and sent him away empty-handed.
11 And he proceeded another to send a servant; but him him having beaten and having dishonored they sent away empty-handed.
Again he sent a different slave; so they flogged him also, treated him shamefully, and sent him away empty-handed.
12 And he proceeded a third to send; They then also him having wounded they cast out.
And again he sent a third; but they wounded him also and threw him out.
13 Said then the master of the vineyard; What shall I do? I will send the son of mine the beloved; perhaps him (having seen *K*) they will respect.
Then the owner of the vineyard said: ‘What shall I do? I will send my beloved son; hopefully they will respect him when they see him.’
14 Having seen now him the farmers were reasoning among (one another *N(k)O*) saying; This is the heir; (come *K*) let us kill him so that ours may become the inheritance.
But when the farmers saw him, they reasoned among themselves, saying: ‘This is the heir. Come, let's kill him, so that the inheritance may become ours.’
15 And having cast forth him outside the vineyard they killed [him]. What therefore will do to them the master of the vineyard?
So they threw him out of the vineyard and killed him. What therefore will the owner of the vineyard do to them?
16 He will come and he will destroy farmers these and will give the vineyard to others. Having heard [it] then they said; Never would it be!
He will come and destroy those farmers and give the vineyard to others.” Having heard it they said, “May it never be!”
17 But having looked at them He said; What then is that written this: [The] stone which rejected those building, this has become into [the] head of [the] corner’?
Then He looked directly at them and said: “What then is this that is written: ‘A stone that the builders rejected, the same became the cornerstone’?
18 Everyone falling on that [very] stone will be broken; on whomever but maybe it may fall, it will grind into powder him.
Everyone who falls on that stone will be broken to pieces, but on whomever it should fall—it will crush him!”
19 And sought the scribes and the chief priests to lay on Him hands in that hour and they feared the people; they perceived for that against them He was speaking parable this.
The chief priests and the scribes wanted to lay hands on Him right then, but they were afraid —they knew He had spoken this parable against them.
20 And having watched [Him] they sent spies feigning themselves righteous to be, that they may catch Him in talk, (in order *N(k)O*) to deliver Him to the rule and to the authority of the governor.
Keeping a close watch on Him, they sent spies, who pretended to be innocent, so that they might latch on to something He said, so as to hand Him over to the power and the authority of the governor.
21 And they questioned Him saying; Teacher, we know that rightly You speak and You teach and not You receive [any] person but on the basis of truth the way of God teach.
So they questioned Him, saying: “Teacher, we know that you speak and teach what is right, and you do not show favoritism but teach the way of God in truth.
22 Is it lawful (for us *N(k)O*) to Caesar tribute to give or not?
Is it lawful for us to pay taxes to Caesar, or not?”
23 having perceived however of them the craftiness He said to them (why *KO*) (me do you test; *K*)
But He perceived their craftiness and said to them: “Why are you testing me?
24 (do show *N(k)O*) Me a denarius; Of whom has it [the] image and inscription? (Those *N(K)O*) And they said; Caesar’s.
Show me a denarius—whose image and inscription does it have?” In answer they said, “Caesar's.”
25 And He said (to *no*) (them; *N(k)O*) Therefore do give back the [things] of Caesar to Caesar and the [things] of God to God.
So He said to them, “Then render to Caesar the things that are Caesar's, and to God the things that are God's.”
26 And not they were able to catch Him in (His *NK(o)*) declaration before the people, and having marveled at the answer of Him they became silent.
They were unable to latch on to His word in front of the people; and marveling at His answer they kept silent.
27 Having approached then some of the Sadducees, the ones (denying *NK(o)*) a resurrection not being, they questioned Him
Then some of the Sadducees, who deny that there is a resurrection, approached and questioned Him,
28 saying; Teacher, Moses wrote to us: if anyone’s brother shall die having a wife and he childless (shall be, *N(K)O*) that shall take the brother of him the wife and shall raise up seed to the brother of him.
saying: “Teacher, Moses wrote to us that if a man's married brother dies childless, then his brother should take the widow and produce offspring for his brother.
29 Seven therefore brothers there were; and the first having taken a wife died childless,
Now there were seven brothers: the first took a wife and died childless;
30 and (took *K*) the second (wife and this died childless *K*)
then the second took the widow and he died childless;
31 and the third took her (likewise *o*) likewise then also the seven not did leave children and died.
then the third took her, in fact all seven in sequence—they all died childless.
32 Finally (now of all *K*) also the woman died.
Finally, last of all, the woman died also.
33 (The woman *no*) therefore in the resurrection, of which of them does she become wife? For the seven had her as wife.
Therefore, in the resurrection, whose wife will she be, since all seven had her?”
34 And (answering *k*) said to them Jesus; The sons of the age this marry and (are given in marriage, *N(k)O*) (aiōn g165)
So in answer Jesus said to them: “The people of this age marry and are given in marriage; (aiōn g165)
35 those however having been considered worthy of the age that [one] to obtain and of the resurrection from [the] dead neither marry nor (are given in marriage; *N(k)(o)*) (aiōn g165)
but those who are considered worthy to attain to that age, to the resurrection from among the dead, neither marry nor are given in marriage. (aiōn g165)
36 (neither *N(k)O*) for to die any more are they able, like [the] angels for they are, and sons they are (*k*) of God of the resurrection sons being.
Because they cannot die anymore, being like angels—they are sons of God, being sons of the resurrection.
37 for however are raised the dead, even Moses showed at the bush when he names [the] Lord the God of Abraham and (the *k*) God of Isaac and (the *k*) God of Jacob.’
But that the dead are raised, Moses indeed revealed about the Bush when he recorded: ‘The Lord, the God of Abraham and the God of Isaac and the God of Jacob.’
38 God now not He is of [the] dead but of [the] living; all for to Him live.
So He is not the God of the dead, but of the living—to Him all are alive.”
39 Answering now some of the scribes said; Teacher, well you have spoken.
Then some of the scribes answered and said, “Teacher, you spoke well.”
40 no longer no longer (then *N(k)O*) were they daring to ask Him no [thing].
And they no longer dared to question Him further.
41 He said then to them; How do they declare the Christ to be David's Son
Then He said to them: “How is it that they say that the Messiah is David's Son?
42 (and *ko*) Himself (for *no*) David says in [the] book of Psalms: Said (the *ko*) Lord to the Lord of me; do sit at [the] right hand of Me
Why David himself affirms in the book of Psalms, ‘The Lord said to my Lord: sit at my right hand
43 until when I may place the enemies of You [as] a footstool of the feet of You.
until I make your enemies a footstool for your feet.’
44 David therefore Lord Him calls, and how of him son is He?
Since David calls Him ‘Lord’, how then is He his Son?”
45 When are listening now all the people He said to the disciples of Him;
Then, in the hearing of the people, He said to His disciples:
46 do beware of the scribes who are desiring to walk in long robes and loving greetings in the marketplaces and first seats in the synagogues and first places in the banquets,
“Beware of the scribes, who like to walk around in long robes, and love greetings in the marketplaces, and the best seats in the synagogues, and the best places at feasts;
47 who devour the houses of widows and as a pretext at great length pray; These will receive more excessive condemnation.
who ‘devour’ widows' houses, and for a show make long prayers. These will receive more severe judgment.”
