Κατα Λουκαν 20
1 και εγενετο εν μια των ημερων εκεινων διδασκοντος αυτου τον λαον εν τω ιερω και ευαγγελιζομενου επεστησαν οι ιερεις και οι γραμματεις συν τοις πρεσβυτεροις
And it came to pass, that on one of the days, as he was teaching the people in the temple, and preaching the gospel, the chief priests and the scribes, with the ancients, met together,
2 και ειπον προς αυτον λεγοντες ειπε ημιν εν ποια εξουσια ταυτα ποιεις η τις εστιν ο δους σοι την εξουσιαν ταυτην
And spoke to him, saying: Tell us, by what authority dost thou these things? or, Who is he that hath given thee this authority?
3 αποκριθεις δε ειπεν προς αυτους ερωτησω υμας καγω ενα λογον και ειπατε μοι
And Jesus answering, said to them: I will also ask you one thing. Answer me:
4 το βαπτισμα ιωαννου εξ ουρανου ην η εξ ανθρωπων
The baptism of John, was it from heaven, or of men?
5 οι δε συνελογισαντο προς εαυτους λεγοντες οτι εαν ειπωμεν εξ ουρανου ερει δια τι ουκ επιστευσατε αυτω
But they thought within themselves, saying: If we shall say, From heaven: he will say: Why then did you not believe him?
6 εαν δε ειπωμεν εξ ανθρωπων πας ο λαος καταλιθασει ημας πεπεισμενος γαρ εστιν ιωαννην προφητην ειναι
But if we say, Of men, the whole people will stone us: for they are persuaded that John was a prophet.
7 και απεκριθησαν μη ειδεναι ποθεν
And they answered, that they knew not whence it was.
8 και ο ιησους ειπεν αυτοις ουδε εγω λεγω υμιν εν ποια εξουσια ταυτα ποιω
And Jesus said to them: Neither do I tell thee by what authority I do these things.
9 ηρξατο δε προς τον λαον λεγειν την παραβολην ταυτην ανθρωπος εφυτευσεν αμπελωνα και εξεδοτο αυτον γεωργοις και απεδημησεν χρονους ικανους
And he began to speak to the people this parable: A certain man planted a vineyard, and let it out to husbandmen: and he was abroad for a long time.
10 και εν καιρω απεστειλεν προς τους γεωργους δουλον ινα απο του καρπου του αμπελωνος δωσιν αυτω οι δε γεωργοι δηραντες αυτον εξαπεστειλαν κενον
And at the season he sent a servant to the husbandmen, that they should give him of the fruit of the vineyard. Who, beating him, sent him away empty.
11 και προσεθετο πεμψαι ετερον δουλον οι δε κακεινον δηραντες και ατιμασαντες εξαπεστειλαν κενον
And again he sent another servant. But they beat him also, and treating him reproachfully, sent him away empty.
12 και προσεθετο πεμψαι τριτον οι δε και τουτον τραυματισαντες εξεβαλον
And again he sent the third: and they wounded him also, and cast him out.
13 ειπεν δε ο κυριος του αμπελωνος τι ποιησω πεμψω τον υιον μου τον αγαπητον ισως τουτον ιδοντες εντραπησονται
Then the lord of the vineyard said: What shall I do? I will send my beloved son: it may be, when they see him, they will reverence him.
14 ιδοντες δε αυτον οι γεωργοι διελογιζοντο προς εαυτους λεγοντες ουτος εστιν ο κληρονομος δευτε αποκτεινωμεν αυτον ινα ημων γενηται η κληρονομια
Whom when the husbandmen saw, they thought within themselves, saying: This is the heir, let us kill him, that the inheritance may be ours.
15 και εκβαλοντες εξω του αμπελωνος απεκτειναν τι ουν ποιησει αυτοις ο κυριος του αμπελωνος
So casting him out of the vineyard, they killed him. What therefore will the lord of the vineyard do to them?
16 ελευσεται και απολεσει τους γεωργους τουτους και δωσει τον αμπελωνα αλλοις ακουσαντες δε ειπον μη γενοιτο
He will come, and will destroy these husbandmen, and will give the vineyard to others. Which they hearing, said to him: God forbid.
17 ο δε εμβλεψας αυτοις ειπεν τι ουν εστιν το γεγραμμενον τουτο λιθον ον απεδοκιμασαν οι οικοδομουντες ουτος εγενηθη εις κεφαλην γωνιας
But he looking on them, said: What is this then that is written, The stone, which the builders rejected, the same is become the head of the corner?
18 πας ο πεσων επ εκεινον τον λιθον συνθλασθησεται εφ ον δ αν πεση λικμησει αυτον
Whosoever shall fall upon that stone, shall be bruised: and upon whomsoever it shall fall, it will grind him to powder.
19 και εζητησαν οι αρχιερεις και οι γραμματεις επιβαλειν επ αυτον τας χειρας εν αυτη τη ωρα και εφοβηθησαν εγνωσαν γαρ οτι προς αυτους την παραβολην ταυτην ειπεν
And the chief priests and the scribes sought to lay hands on him the same hour: but they feared the people, for they knew that he spoke this parable to them.
20 και παρατηρησαντες απεστειλαν εγκαθετους υποκρινομενους εαυτους δικαιους ειναι ινα επιλαβωνται αυτου λογου εις το παραδουναι αυτον τη αρχη και τη εξουσια του ηγεμονος
And being upon the watch, they sent spies, who should feign themselves just, that they might take hold of him in his words, that they might deliver him up to the authority and power of the governor.
21 και επηρωτησαν αυτον λεγοντες διδασκαλε οιδαμεν οτι ορθως λεγεις και διδασκεις και ου λαμβανεις προσωπον αλλ επ αληθειας την οδον του θεου διδασκεις
And they asked him, saying: Master, we know that thou speakest and teachest rightly: and thou dost not respect any person, but teachest the way of God in truth.
22 εξεστιν ημιν καισαρι φορον δουναι η ου
Is it lawful for us to give tribute to Caesar, or no?
23 κατανοησας δε αυτων την πανουργιαν ειπεν προς αυτους τι με πειραζετε
But he considering their guile, said to them: Why tempt you me?
24 επιδειξατε μοι δηναριον τινος εχει εικονα και επιγραφην αποκριθεντες δε ειπον καισαρος
Shew me a penny. Whose image and inscription hath it? They answering, said to him, Caesar’s.
25 ο δε ειπεν αυτοις αποδοτε τοινυν τα καισαρος καισαρι και τα του θεου τω θεω
And he said to them: Render therefore to Caesar the things that are Caesar’s: and to God the things that are God’s.
26 και ουκ ισχυσαν επιλαβεσθαι αυτου ρηματος εναντιον του λαου και θαυμασαντες επι τη αποκρισει αυτου εσιγησαν
And they could not reprehend his word before the people: and wondering at his answer, they held their peace.
27 προσελθοντες δε τινες των σαδδουκαιων οι αντιλεγοντες αναστασιν μη ειναι επηρωτησαν αυτον
And there came to him some of the Sadducees, who deny that there is any resurrection, and they asked him,
28 λεγοντες διδασκαλε μωσης εγραψεν ημιν εαν τινος αδελφος αποθανη εχων γυναικα και ουτος ατεκνος αποθανη ινα ο αδελφος αυτου λαβη την γυναικα και εξαναστηση σπερμα τω αδελφω αυτου
Saying: Master, Moses wrote unto us, If any man’s brother die, having a wife, and he leave no children, that his brother should take her to wife, and raise up seed unto his brother.
29 επτα ουν αδελφοι ησαν και ο πρωτος λαβων γυναικα απεθανεν ατεκνος
There were therefore seven brethren: and the first took a wife, and died without children.
30 και ελαβεν ο δευτερος την γυναικα και ουτος απεθανεν ατεκνος
And the next took her to wife, and he also died childless.
31 και ο τριτος ελαβεν αυτην ωσαυτως δε και οι επτα ου κατελιπον τεκνα και απεθανον
And the third took her. And in like manner all the seven, and they left no children, and died.
32 υστερον δε παντων απεθανεν και η γυνη
Last of all the woman died also.
33 εν τη ουν αναστασει τινος αυτων γινεται γυνη οι γαρ επτα εσχον αυτην γυναικα
In the resurrection therefore, whose wife of them shall she be? For all the seven had her to wife.
34 και αποκριθεις ειπεν αυτοις ο ιησους οι υιοι του αιωνος τουτου γαμουσιν και εκγαμισκονται (aiōn g165)
And Jesus said to them: The children of this world marry, and are given in marriage: (aiōn g165)
35 οι δε καταξιωθεντες του αιωνος εκεινου τυχειν και της αναστασεως της εκ νεκρων ουτε γαμουσιν ουτε εκγαμιζονται (aiōn g165)
But they that shall be accounted worthy of that world, and of the resurrection from the dead, shall neither be married, nor take wives. (aiōn g165)
36 ουτε γαρ αποθανειν ετι δυνανται ισαγγελοι γαρ εισιν και υιοι εισιν του θεου της αναστασεως υιοι οντες
Neither can they die any more: for they are equal to the angels, and are the children of God, being the children of the resurrection.
37 οτι δε εγειρονται οι νεκροι και μωυσης εμηνυσεν επι της βατου ως λεγει κυριον τον θεον αβρααμ και τον θεον ισαακ και τον θεον ιακωβ
Now that the dead rise again, Moses also shewed, at the bush, when he called the Lord, The God of Abraham, and the God of Isaac, and the God of Jacob;
38 θεος δε ουκ εστιν νεκρων αλλα ζωντων παντες γαρ αυτω ζωσιν
For he is not the God of the dead, but of the living: for all live to him.
39 αποκριθεντες δε τινες των γραμματεων ειπον διδασκαλε καλως ειπας
And some of the scribes answering, said to him: Master, thou hast said well.
40 ουκετι δε ετολμων επερωταν αυτον ουδεν
And after that they durst not ask him any more questions.
41 ειπεν δε προς αυτους πως λεγουσιν τον χριστον υιον δαυιδ ειναι
But he said to them: How say they that Christ is the son of David?
42 και αυτος δαυιδ λεγει εν βιβλω ψαλμων ειπεν ο κυριος τω κυριω μου καθου εκ δεξιων μου
And David himself saith in the book of Psalms: The Lord said to my Lord, sit thou on my right hand,
43 εως αν θω τους εχθρους σου υποποδιον των ποδων σου
Till I make thy enemies thy footstool.
44 δαυιδ ουν κυριον αυτον καλει και πως υιος αυτου εστιν
David then calleth him Lord: and how is he his son?
45 ακουοντος δε παντος του λαου ειπεν τοις μαθηταις αυτου
And in the hearing of all the people, he said to his disciples:
46 προσεχετε απο των γραμματεων των θελοντων περιπατειν εν στολαις και φιλουντων ασπασμους εν ταις αγοραις και πρωτοκαθεδριας εν ταις συναγωγαις και πρωτοκλισιας εν τοις δειπνοις
Beware of the scribes, who desire to walk in long robes, and love salutations in the marketplace, and the first chairs in the synagogues, and the chief rooms at feasts:
47 οι κατεσθιουσιν τας οικιας των χηρων και προφασει μακρα προσευχονται ουτοι ληψονται περισσοτερον κριμα
Who devour the houses of widows, feigning long prayer. These shall receive greater damnation.
