< Luke 20 >

1 One day [during that week, Jesus] was teaching the people in the Temple [courtyard] and telling them [God’s] good message. As he was doing that, the chief priests, the men who taught the [Jewish] laws, and [other Jewish] elders came to him.
Agus tárla, áon do na láethibh sin, an tan do theagaisg séision an pubal ann sa teampall, agus do sheanmoir sé an soisgéul, go dtangadar úachdaráin na sagart agus na sgríobuidhe maille ris na sinnsearuibh chuige.
2 They asked him, “Tell us, by what authority are you doing these things? Who authorized you to do things [like you did here yesterday]?”
Agus do labhradar ris, ag rádh, Innis dúinne, cia an tughdarrás as a ndéanann tú na neithesi? Nó cia thug an tughdarrás so dhuit?
3 He replied, “I will also ask you a question. Tell me,
Agus ar bhfreagra Díosa a dubhairt sé ríu, Fiafrochaidh misi fós aonfhocal amháin dibhse; agus tabhruidh freagra oram:
4 where did John [the Baptizer] get [his authority to] baptize [those who came to him]? [Did he get it] from God [MTY/EUP] or from people?”
Baisdeadh Eóin, ann ó neamh do bhi se, nó ó dháoinibh?
5 They discussed this among themselves. They said, “[If we(inc) say], ‘[It was] from God [MTY/EUP],’ he will say to us, ‘[Then] (you should have believed John’s [message]!/why did you not believe what John preached?) [RHQ]’
Agus do bhádarsan ag tagra eatarra féin, ag rádh, Má dermíd, O neamh; déara seisean, Créd fá nar chreideabhairsi dhó?
6 But if we say, ‘It was [from] people,’ the people [here] will [kill us by] throwing stones at us, because they [all] believe that John was a prophet [from God].”
Achd má deirmid, O dháoinibh; géubhuidh an pobal uile do chlochaibh orainn: oír is deimhin léo gur fáigh Eóin.
7 So they replied, “We [(exc)] do not know where [John got his authority].”
Agus do fhreagradar, nach raibh a fhios aca féiu gá hás dó.
8 Then Jesus said to them, “[Because you did not answer my question], I will not tell you who authorized me to do those things [here yesterday].”
Agus a dubhairt Iósa ríu, Ní mó innéosas misi dhíbhsi cía an túghdarrás as a ndéunuim na neithesi.
9 Then Jesus told the people this parable [to illustrate what God would do to the Jews who rejected the former prophets and himself]: “A [certain] man planted a vineyard. He rented the vineyard to some men [to care for it and to give him some of the grapes in return]. Then he went to another country and stayed there several years.
Agus do thionnsgain sé an chosamhlachdsa do rádh ris an bpobal; Do chuir duine áirighe fíneamhuin, agus tug sé amach do sgológuibh í, agus do bhi sé féin a gcoigcrích air feadh aimsire faide.
10 When [the vines started producing] grapes, he sent a servant to the men who were taking care of the vineyard. He expected that they would give him some of the grapes that the vineyard had produced. But [after the servant arrived], they beat him and they did not give him any grapes. They [just] sent him away.
Agus na am féin do chuir sé a shearbhfhoghantuighe chum na sgológ, ionnus go dtiobhraidis ní do thoradh na fíneamhna dhó: achd do ghabhadar na sgológa air, agus do chuireadar folamh uátha é.
11 [Later], [the owner] sent another servant. But they beat him and mistreated him [also]. They sent him away without giving him any grapes.
Agus do chuir sé searbhfhoghantuighe eile úadh a rís: achd ar ngabháil air sin leis, agus ar dtabhairt easonóra dhó, do chureadar folamh uátha é.
12 [Still later, the owner] sent another servant. That one they wounded and threw him out [of the vineyard].
Agus na cheann sin do chuir sé an treas úadh: achd do chuireadarsan amach an tésin leis, ar na lot.
13 So the owner of the vineyard thought to himself, ‘(I do not know what to do!/What shall I do?) [RHQ]’ [Then he had an idea. He thought to himself], ‘I will send my son, [whom I] love [very much]. Perhaps they will respect him [and give him my share of the grapes].’
Achd a dubhairt tighearna na fíneamhna, Cred do dhéana mé? cuirfidh mé mó mhac grádhach féin chuca: do béidir an tan do chifid é go dtiobhraidís onóir dhó.
14 [So he sent his son], but when the men who were caring for the vineyard saw him [coming], they said to each other, ‘Here [comes] the man who will [some day] inherit [the vineyard]. Let’s kill him so that this vineyard will be ours!’
Agus ar na fhaicsin do na sgológuibh, do labhradar eatarra féin, ag rádh, A sé so an toighre, tigidh, marbham é, ionnus go mbíadh a noighreachd aguinn féin.
15 So they dragged him outside the vineyard and they killed him. So (I will tell you what the owner of the vineyard will do to them!/do you know what the owner of the vineyard will do to them?) [RHQ]
Agus ar na theilgean don táobh amach don fhíneamhain, do mharbhadar é. Ar a nadhbharsin créd do dhéanas tlghearna na fíneamhna riú súd?
16 He will come and kill those men who were taking care of the vineyard. Then he will arrange for other people to take care of it.” When the people listening to Jesus heard that, they said, “[We would] not do anything like those wicked men did!”
Tiocfuidh sé agus sgriosfuidh sé na sgológa úd, agus do bhéura sé an fhíneamhuin do dháoinibh eile. Agus an tan do chúaladarsan so, a dubhradar, Nár liege Día sin.
17 But Jesus looked directly at them and said, “You can say that, [but think about] the meaning of these words that are written {which [a prophet] wrote} [RHQ] [in the Scriptures], The men who were building a house rejected a certain stone. But others put that same stone in its proper place, and it has become the most important stone in the building [MET].
Achd ar bhféachain dósan órrtha, a dubhairt sé: Máseadh créd é an ní so atá sgriobhtha, An chloch do dhiultadar na sáoir is di so do rinneadh ceann an chuáinne?
18 [That stone represents me, the Messiah], and those who reject me are [like people who fall on this stone]. Everyone who falls on this stone will be broken to pieces {This stone will break to pieces everyone who falls on it}, and it will crush anyone on whom it falls.”
Gidh bé duine thuitfeas ar an gcloich úd, do dhéantar greamanna dhe; agus gidh bé duine ar a dtuitfidh sí, do dhéana sí luaithreadh dhe.
19 The chief priests and the men who taught the [Jewish] laws realized that he was accusing them when he told the parable [about what those wicked men did]. So they immediately tried to find a way to seize [MTY] him, but [they did not seize him, because] they were afraid of [what] the people [there would do if they did that].
Agus díarradar úachdaráin na sagart agus na sgriobuidhe láinha do chur annsan air a núair sin féin; achd do bhi eagla an phobuil orrtha: óir do aithneadar gur ab na naghuidh fein a dubhairt sé an chosamblachdso.
20 So they watched him carefully. They also hired (spies/secret agents) who pretended to be sincere. [But] they really wanted to get him to say something for [which they could accuse] him. They wanted to be able to turn him over to the authority of the governor [of the province. But they also knew that the Jews were disgusted with having to pay taxes to the government].
Agus ag tabhairt aire ris, do chuireadar luchd bratha, do léigfeadh orrtha féin a bheith na bhfiréin, ionnus go ngreameóchaidis air a chomhrádh, do chum a thabhartha do chumhachd agus dughdarrás a nuáchdaráin.
21 [So] one of them asked Jesus, “Teacher, we [(exc)] know that you [(sg)] speak and teach what is right. You tell the truth even if important people do not like it. You teach truthfully what God wants us to do.
Agus dfíafraigheadar dhe, ag rádh, á Mhaighisdir, atá a fhios againne gur ceart labhras tú agus theagaisgeas tú, agus nach bhfuil cion agad ar phearsain áonduine, achd go dteagasgann tú slighe Dé do réir na fírinne:
22 [So tell us what you think about this matter]: Is it right that we pay taxes to the Roman government [MTY], or not?”
An ceaduightheach dhúinne cíos do thábhairt do Shéasar, nó gan a thabhairt?
23 But Jesus knew that they were trying to trick him [to get him into trouble, either with the Jews, who hated to pay those taxes, or with the Roman government]. So he said to them,
Achd tug seisean a meabhail dá aire, agus a dubhairt sé riú, Créd fá gcurtháoi cathughadh oram?
24 “Show me a [Roman] coin. [Then tell me] whose picture is on it. And [tell me whose] name is on it.” They [showed him a coin and] said, “It has the picture and name of Caesar, [the head of the Roman government].”
Taisbéanaigh dhamh pighinn. Cia ar leis a níomháigh agus an sgríbhinn atá uirthe? Agus ar bhfreagra dhoibhsion a dubhradar, Lé Séasar,
25 He said to them, “In that case, give to the government [MTY] what they [require], and give to God what he [requires].”
Achd a dubhairt seision riu, Ar a nadhbharsin tabhruidh do Shéasar na neithe is lé Séasar, agus na neithe is lé Día do Dhía.
26 While the people were there, the [spies] were unable to find fault with him for what he said. And they were amazed at his answer. So they said nothing.
Agus níor fhéadadar greamughadh air a bhriathra a bhfíadhnuisi an phobuil: agus ag déanamh iongantais ann a fhreagarthuibhsion, do thochdadar.
27 Some Sadducees came to [Jesus]. They are a Jewish sect who do not believe that people will become alive again after they die.
Agus ar dteachd do dhruing do na Saduceachiabh chuige, (noch shéanas a neiséirghe do bheith ann; ) dfíafruigheadar dhe,
28 They [wanted to] ask [Jesus] a question [in order to discredit the idea that dead people will live again]. One of them said [to Jesus], “Teacher, Moses wrote for us [Jews] about situations where a man who has a wife but no children. If the man dies, his brother should marry the [dead man’s] widow so that she can have a child by him. People [will consider] that the child is the descendant of the man [who died], [and in that way the dead man will have descendants].
Ag rádh, A Mhaighisdir, do sgríobh Máoisi dhúinn, Dá bhfaghadh dearbhráthar dhúine ar bith bás, agá mbía bean phósda, agus go bhfuigheadh sé bás gan chloinn, go ngéubhadh a dhearbhráthair chuige a bhean, agus go tóigéubhadh se sliochd dá dhearbhrathair.
29 Well, there were seven brothers in one family. The oldest one married, but he and his wife did not bear any children. Later he died.
Ar a nadhbharsin do bhádar móirsheisior dearbhrathar ann: agus ar ngabháil mná chuige don chédghear, fúair sé bás gan chloinn.
30 The second [brother followed this law and married the widow, but the same thing happened to him].
Agus do ghabh an dara dearbhrathair chuige an bhean, agus fuair seision leis bás gan chloinn.
31 Then the third [brother] married her, [but the same thing happened again]. All seven [brothers, one by one, married that woman], [but] they had no children, and [one by one] they died.
Agus do ghabh an treas dearbhráthair chuige í; agas mar an gcéadna an móirsheisior: agus nier fhágbhadar clann, agus fúaradar bás.
32 Afterwards, the woman died, too.
Agus a ndiaigh cháich aile fúair an bhean bás mar an gcéadna.
33 Therefore, [if it is true that there will be a time] when dead people will become alive again, whose wife [do you think that woman] will be [then]? ([Keep in mind that she was married to all seven brothers!/It will be impossible to decide because] she was married to all seven brothers!) [RHQ]”
Ar a nadhbharsin an sa neiséirghe cía aca súd dá madh bean í? óir do bhi si ag an mhóirsheisior na mnaoi.
34 Jesus replied to them, “Men who live here in this world take wives, or are given wives [by their parents] {their [parents] choose wives [for them]}. (aiōn g165)
Agus ag freagra a dubhairt Iósa ríu, Pósaid clann an tsáoghailsi mná, agus do bheirthear dfearuibh íad: (aiōn g165)
35 But the men whom God considers worthy of [being in heaven after] they become alive again will not be married. (aiōn g165)
Achd cheana an dream mheasfuidhthear gur fiú íad an sáoghal úd, agus eiséirghe ó na marbhuibh dfagháil, ni phósaid mná, agus ní thugthar dfearuibh íad: (aiōn g165)
36 [You need to know also that] they cannot die any more, because they will be [immortal] [SIM] like angels. [The fact that God has caused] them to be alive again [will show] that they are God’s children.
Oír ní héidir léo bás dtagháil ní sa mhó: Oír atáid síad mar na haingle; agus na gcloinn ag Día, ar mbeith na gcloinn ag a neiséirghe.
37 But [as for people] becoming alive again after they die, Moses wrote something about that. In the place where [he wrote about] the [burning] bush, he mentions the Lord as being the God whom Abraham [worships] and the God whom Isaac [worships] and the God whom Jacob [worships].
Achd go néiréochadh na mairbh, dfoillsigh Máoise lcis ag an dos, an tan do ghoireas sé don Tighearna Día Abraham, agus Día Isaac, agus Día Iácob.
38 It is not dead people who worship God. It is living people who worship him. [Abraham, Isaac and Jacob died long before Moses lived, but God said that they were still worshipping him, so we(inc) know their spirits were still alive]! All [people] whose [spirits] are alive [again after they die continue to live to honor God]!”
Oír ní hé Día na marbh é, achd na mbéo: óir atáid síad uile na mbeathaigh dhósan.
39 Some of the men who taught the [Jewish] laws replied, “Teacher, you [(sg)] have answered very well!”
Agus ar bhfreagra do dhruing do na sgríobuidhibh a dubhradar, A Mhaighisdir, is maith a dubhairt tú sin.
40 After that, they no longer dared to ask him any more questions [like that to try to trap him].
Agus níor lamhadar ó sin súas ní ar bith fhíafruighe dhe.
41 Then Jesus said to them, “I will show you (OR, prove to you) that people [are wrong who] say that the Messiah is [merely] a descendant of [King] David! [RHQ]
Agus a dubhairt sé ríu, Cionnas a déirid síad gur mac do Dháibhi Criosd?
42 Because David himself wrote [about the Messiah] in the book of Psalms, God said to my Lord, Sit [here beside me] on my right, [where I will highly honor you(sg)] [MTY].
Agus a deir Dáibhi féin a leabhar na Salm, A dubhairt an TIGHEARNA rém Thighearnasa, Suidh ar mo láimh dheis,
43 [Sit here] while I completely defeat your enemies.
No go gcuire mé do námhuid na sdól fád chosaibh?
44 King David calls [the Messiah] ‘[my] Lord’! So ([the Messiah] cannot be [just someone] descended from [King] David!/how can the Messiah be [just] someone descended from [King] David?) [RHQ] [What I just said proves that he is much greater than David, isn’t that right]?”
Ar a nadhbharsin goiridh Dáibhi Tighearna dhe, agus cíonnas is mac dhó é?
45 While all the [other] people were listening, [Jesus] said to his disciples,
Agus a néisdeachd an phobuil nile a dubhairt sé ré na dheisciobluibh féin,
46 “Beware that [you do not act like] the men who teach our [Jewish] laws. They like to put on long robes and walk around [to make people think that they are very important]. [They] also like [people to] greet them [respectfully] in the marketplaces. They like [to sit in] the most important places in the Jewish meeting places. At dinner parties [they like to sit in] the seats where the most honored people sit.
Tabhruidh aire dháoibh féin ó na sgríobuidhibh, le nab aill siobhal a róhuidhibh fada, agus lé nab ionmhuin failtighe ar na marguidhibh, agus na cédionuid suighthe ann sna coimhthionóluibh, agus na céadchuibhrinn ann sna féasduidhibh;
47 They swindle [MET] the houses [and property] of widows. [Then] they pretend they are good, as they pray [long] prayers [publicly. God] will [certainly] punish them very severely.”
Noch shluigeas tighthe na mbaintreabhach, agus sin fós ar sgáth bheith go fada ag urnuighe: do gheabhuid so an dainnadh is truime.
