Luke 20
1 And it came to pass, on one of those days, as he is teaching the people in the temple, and proclaiming good news, the chief priests and the scribes, with the elders, came upon [him],
athaikadā yīśu rmanidarē susaṁvādaṁ pracārayan lōkānupadiśati, ētarhi pradhānayājakā adhyāpakāḥ prāñcaśca tannikaṭamāgatya papracchuḥ
2 and spake unto him, saying, 'Tell us by what authority thou dost these things? or who is he that gave to thee this authority?'
kayājñayā tvaṁ karmmāṇyētāni karōṣi? kō vā tvāmājñāpayat? tadasmān vada|
3 And he answering said unto them, 'I will question you — I also — one thing, and tell me:
sa pratyuvāca, tarhi yuṣmānapi kathāmēkāṁ pr̥cchāmi tasyōttaraṁ vadata|
4 the baptism of John, from heaven was it, or from men?'
yōhanō majjanam īśvarasya mānuṣāṇāṁ vājñātō jātaṁ?
5 And they reasoned with themselves, saying — 'If we may say, From heaven, he will say, Wherefore, then, did ye not believe him?
tatastē mithō vivicya jagaduḥ, yadīśvarasya vadāmastarhi taṁ kutō na pratyaita sa iti vakṣyati|
6 and if we may say, From men, all the people will stone us, for they are having been persuaded John to be a prophet.'
yadi manuṣyasyēti vadāmastarhi sarvvē lōkā asmān pāṣāṇai rhaniṣyanti yatō yōhan bhaviṣyadvādīti sarvvē dr̥ḍhaṁ jānanti|
7 And they answered, that they knew not whence [it was],
ataēva tē pratyūcuḥ kasyājñayā jātam iti vaktuṁ na śaknumaḥ|
8 and Jesus said to them, 'Neither do I say to you by what authority I do these things.'
tadā yīśuravadat tarhi kayājñayā karmmāṇyētāti karōmīti ca yuṣmān na vakṣyāmi|
9 And he began to speak unto the people this simile: 'A certain man planted a vineyard, and gave it out to husbandmen, and went abroad for a long time,
atha lōkānāṁ sākṣāt sa imāṁ dr̥ṣṭāntakathāṁ vaktumārēbhē, kaścid drākṣākṣētraṁ kr̥tvā tat kṣētraṁ kr̥ṣīvalānāṁ hastēṣu samarpya bahukālārthaṁ dūradēśaṁ jagāma|
10 and at the season he sent unto the husbandmen a servant, that from the fruit of the vineyard they may give to him, but the husbandmen having beat him, did send [him] away empty.
atha phalakālē phalāni grahītu kr̥ṣīvalānāṁ samīpē dāsaṁ prāhiṇōt kintu kr̥ṣīvalāstaṁ prahr̥tya riktahastaṁ visasarjuḥ|
11 'And he added to send another servant, and they that one also having beaten and dishonoured, did send away empty;
tataḥ sōdhipatiḥ punaranyaṁ dāsaṁ prēṣayāmāsa, tē tamapi prahr̥tya kuvyavahr̥tya riktahastaṁ visasr̥juḥ|
12 and he added to send a third, and this one also, having wounded, they did cast out.
tataḥ sa tr̥tīyavāram anyaṁ prāhiṇōt tē tamapi kṣatāṅgaṁ kr̥tvā bahi rnicikṣipuḥ|
13 'And the owner of the vineyard said, What shall I do? I will send my son — the beloved, perhaps having seen this one, they will do reverence;
tadā kṣētrapati rvicārayāmāsa, mamēdānīṁ kiṁ karttavyaṁ? mama priyē putrē prahitē tē tamavaśyaṁ dr̥ṣṭvā samādariṣyantē|
14 and having seen him, the husbandmen reasoned among themselves, saying, This is the heir; come, we may kill him, that the inheritance may become ours;
kintu kr̥ṣīvalāstaṁ nirīkṣya parasparaṁ vivicya prōcuḥ, ayamuttarādhikārī āgacchatainaṁ hanmastatōdhikārōsmākaṁ bhaviṣyati|
15 and having cast him outside of the vineyard, they killed [him]; what, then, shall the owner of the vineyard do to them?
tatastē taṁ kṣētrād bahi rnipātya jaghnustasmāt sa kṣētrapatistān prati kiṁ kariṣyati?
16 He will come, and destroy these husbandmen, and will give the vineyard to others.' And having heard, they said, 'Let it not be!'
sa āgatya tān kr̥ṣīvalān hatvā parēṣāṁ hastēṣu tatkṣētraṁ samarpayiṣyati; iti kathāṁ śrutvā tē 'vadan ētādr̥śī ghaṭanā na bhavatu|
17 and he, having looked upon them, said, 'What, then, is this that hath been written: A stone that the builders rejected — this became head of a corner?
kintu yīśustānavalōkya jagāda, tarhi, sthapatayaḥ kariṣyanti grāvāṇaṁ yantu tucchakaṁ| pradhānaprastaraḥ kōṇē sa ēva hi bhaviṣyati| ētasya śāstrīyavacanasya kiṁ tātparyyaṁ?
18 every one who hath fallen on that stone shall be broken, and on whom it may fall, it will crush him to pieces.'
aparaṁ tatpāṣāṇōpari yaḥ patiṣyati sa bhaṁkṣyatē kintu yasyōpari sa pāṣāṇaḥ patiṣyati sa tēna dhūlivac cūrṇībhaviṣyati|
19 And the chief priests and the scribes sought to lay hands on him in that hour, and they feared the people, for they knew that against them he spake this simile.
sōsmākaṁ viruddhaṁ dr̥ṣṭāntamimaṁ kathitavān iti jñātvā pradhānayājakā adhyāpakāśca tadaiva taṁ dhartuṁ vavāñchuḥ kintu lōkēbhyō bibhyuḥ|
20 And, having watched [him], they sent forth liers in wait, feigning themselves to be righteous, that they might take hold of his word, to deliver him up to the rule and to the authority of the governor,
ataēva taṁ prati satarkāḥ santaḥ kathaṁ tadvākyadōṣaṁ dhr̥tvā taṁ dēśādhipasya sādhuvēśadhāriṇaścarān tasya samīpē prēṣayāmāsuḥ|
21 and they questioned him, saying, 'Teacher, we have known that thou dost say and teach rightly, and dost not accept a person, but in truth the way of God dost teach;
tadā tē taṁ papracchuḥ, hē upadēśaka bhavān yathārthaṁ kathayan upadiśati, kamapyanapēkṣya satyatvēnaiśvaraṁ mārgamupadiśati, vayamētajjānīmaḥ|
22 Is it lawful to us to give tribute to Caesar or not?'
kaisararājāya karōsmābhi rdēyō na vā?
23 And he, having perceived their craftiness, said unto them, 'Why me do ye tempt?
sa tēṣāṁ vañcanaṁ jñātvāvadat kutō māṁ parīkṣadhvē? māṁ mudrāmēkaṁ darśayata|
24 shew me a denary; of whom hath it an image and superscription?' and they answering said, 'Of Caesar:'
iha likhitā mūrtiriyaṁ nāma ca kasya? tē'vadan kaisarasya|
25 and he said to them, 'Give back, therefore, the things of Caesar to Caesar, and the things of God to God;'
tadā sa uvāca, tarhi kaisarasya dravyaṁ kaisarāya datta; īśvarasya tu dravyamīśvarāya datta|
26 and they were not able to take hold on his saying before the people, and having wondered at his answer, they were silent.
tasmāllōkānāṁ sākṣāt tatkathāyāḥ kamapi dōṣaṁ dhartumaprāpya tē tasyōttarād āścaryyaṁ manyamānā mauninastasthuḥ|
27 And certain of the Sadducees, who are denying that there is a rising again, having come near, questioned him,
aparañca śmaśānādutthānānaṅgīkāriṇāṁ sidūkināṁ kiyantō janā āgatya taṁ papracchuḥ,
28 saying, 'Teacher, Moses wrote to us, If any one's brother may die, having a wife, and he may die childless — that his brother may take the wife, and may raise up seed to his brother.
hē upadēśaka śāstrē mūsā asmān pratīti lilēkha yasya bhrātā bhāryyāyāṁ satyāṁ niḥsantānō mriyatē sa tajjāyāṁ vivahya tadvaṁśam utpādayiṣyati|
29 'There were, then, seven brothers, and the first having taken a wife, died childless,
tathāca kēcit sapta bhrātara āsan tēṣāṁ jyēṣṭhō bhrātā vivahya nirapatyaḥ prāṇān jahau|
30 and the second took the wife, and he died childless,
atha dvitīyastasya jāyāṁ vivahya nirapatyaḥ san mamāra| tr̥tīyaśca tāmēva vyuvāha;
31 and the third took her, and in like manner also the seven — they left not children, and they died;
itthaṁ sapta bhrātarastāmēva vivahya nirapatyāḥ santō mamruḥ|
32 and last of all died also the woman:
śēṣē sā strī ca mamāra|
33 in the rising again, then, of which of them doth she become wife? — for the seven had her as wife.'
ataēva śmaśānādutthānakālē tēṣāṁ saptajanānāṁ kasya sā bhāryyā bhaviṣyati? yataḥ sā tēṣāṁ saptānāmēva bhāryyāsīt|
34 And Jesus answering said to them, 'The sons of this age do marry and are given in marriage, (aiōn g165)
tadā yīśuḥ pratyuvāca, ētasya jagatō lōkā vivahanti vāgdattāśca bhavanti (aiōn g165)
35 but those accounted worthy to obtain that age, and the rising again that is out of the dead, neither marry, nor are they given in marriage; (aiōn g165)
kintu yē tajjagatprāptiyōgyatvēna gaṇitāṁ bhaviṣyanti śmaśānāccōtthāsyanti tē na vivahanti vāgdattāśca na bhavanti, (aiōn g165)
36 for neither are they able to die any more — for they are like messengers — and they are sons of God, being sons of the rising again.
tē puna rna mriyantē kintu śmaśānādutthāpitāḥ santa īśvarasya santānāḥ svargīyadūtānāṁ sadr̥śāśca bhavanti|
37 'And that the dead are raised, even Moses shewed at the Bush, since he doth call the Lord, the God of Abraham, and the God of Isaac, and the God of Jacob;
adhikantu mūsāḥ stambōpākhyānē paramēśvara ībrāhīma īśvara ishāka īśvarō yākūbaścēśvara ityuktvā mr̥tānāṁ śmaśānād utthānasya pramāṇaṁ lilēkha|
38 and He is not a God of dead men, but of living, for all live to Him.'
ataēva ya īśvaraḥ sa mr̥tānāṁ prabhu rna kintu jīvatāmēva prabhuḥ, tannikaṭē sarvvē jīvantaḥ santi|
39 And certain of the scribes answering said, 'Teacher, thou didst say well;'
iti śrutvā kiyantōdhyāpakā ūcuḥ, hē upadēśaka bhavān bhadraṁ pratyuktavān|
40 and no more durst they question him anything.
itaḥ paraṁ taṁ kimapi praṣṭaṁ tēṣāṁ pragalbhatā nābhūt|
41 And he said unto them, 'How do they say the Christ to be son of David,
paścāt sa tān uvāca, yaḥ khrīṣṭaḥ sa dāyūdaḥ santāna ētāṁ kathāṁ lōkāḥ kathaṁ kathayanti?
42 and David himself saith in the Book of Psalms, The Lord said to my lord, Sit thou on my right hand,
yataḥ mama prabhumidaṁ vākyamavadat paramēśvaraḥ| tava śatrūnahaṁ yāvat pādapīṭhaṁ karōmi na| tāvat kālaṁ madīyē tvaṁ dakṣapārśva upāviśa|
43 till I shall make thine enemies thy footstool;
iti kathāṁ dāyūd svayaṁ gītagranthē'vadat|
44 David, then, doth call him lord, and how is he his son?'
ataēva yadi dāyūd taṁ prabhuṁ vadati, tarhi sa kathaṁ tasya santānō bhavati?
45 And, all the people hearing, he said to his disciples,
paścād yīśuḥ sarvvajanānāṁ karṇagōcarē śiṣyānuvāca,
46 'Take heed of the scribes, who are wishing to walk in long robes, and are loving salutations in the markets, and first seats in the synagogues, and first couches in the suppers,
yē'dhyāpakā dīrghaparicchadaṁ paridhāya bhramanti, haṭṭāpaṇayō rnamaskārē bhajanagēhasya prōccāsanē bhōjanagr̥hasya pradhānasthānē ca prīyantē
47 who devour the houses of the widows, and for a pretence make long prayers, these shall receive more abundant judgment.'
vidhavānāṁ sarvvasvaṁ grasitvā chalēna dīrghakālaṁ prārthayantē ca tēṣu sāvadhānā bhavata, tēṣāmugradaṇḍō bhaviṣyati|
