Luka 20
1 EIA hoi kekahi, i kekahi o ia mau la, i kana ao ana i kanaka iloko o ka luakini me ka hai mai i ka euanelio, kau ae la na kahuna nui, a me ka poe kakauolelo, a me na lunakahiko;
On one of these days, when Jesus was teaching the people in the Temple Courts and telling the good news, the chief priests and the teachers of the Law, joined by the elders, confronted him,
2 Olelo aku la lakou ia ia, i aku la, E hai mai oe ia makou, ma ka mana hea i hana'i oe i keia mau mea? Nawai hoi ia mana i haawi ia oe?
and addressing him, said, “Tell us what authority you have to do these things. Who is it who has given you this authority?”
3 Olelo mai la oia, i mai la ia lakou, Hookahi a'u mea hoi e ninau aku ai ia oukou, e hai mai hoi oukou ia'u.
“I, too,” said Jesus in reply, “will ask you one question. Give me an answer to it.
4 O ka bapetizo ana o Ioane, no ka lani mai anei ia, no na kanaka anei?
It is about John’s baptism – was it of divine or of human origin?”
5 A kukakuka lakou lakou iho, i iho la, Ina e olelo aku kakou, No ka lani; e ninau mai no ia, No ke aha la hoi i manaoio ole ai oukou ia ia?
But they began arguing together, “If we say ‘divine,’ he will say ‘Why didn’t you believe him?’
6 A ina o olelo kakou, No na kanaka; e hailuku mai kanaka a pau ia kakou; no ka mea, i ko lakou manao he kaula o Ioane.
But, if we say ‘human,’ the people will all stone us, for they are persuaded that John was a prophet.”
7 A olelo aku la lakou, aole lakou i ike i kahi nolaila mai ia.
So they answered that they did not know its origin.
8 I mai la hoi o Iesu ia lakou, Aole hoi au e hai aku ia oukou, i ka mana a'u i haua aku ai i keia mau mea.
“Then I,” said Jesus, “refuse to tell you what authority I have to do these things.”
9 Alaila olelo mai oia i kanaka i keia olelonane; Kanu iho la kekahi kanaka i ka malawaina, a waiho aku ia i na hoaaina, a hele aku la a liuliu loa ma ka aina e.
But Jesus began to tell the people this parable – “A man once planted a vineyard, and then let it out to tenants, and went abroad for a long while.
10 A i ka manawa pono, hoouna mai la ia i kahi kauwa i ka poe hoaaina i haawi lakou ia ia i ka hua o ka malawaina; a pepehi iho la na hoaaina ia ia, a hoihoi nele aku la ia ia.
At the proper time he sent a servant to the tenants, so that they could give him a share of the produce of the vineyard. The tenants, however, beat him and sent him away empty-handed.
11 Alaila hoouna hou mai la oia i kekahi kauwa; a pepehi hou lakou ia ia, a hoomainoino, a hoihoi nele aku la ia ia.
The owner afterward sent another servant; but the tenants beat and insulted this man too, and sent him away empty-handed.
12 A mahope iho, hoouna hou mai la oia i ke kolu; a hana eha aku la lakou ia ia, a kipaku aku la.
He sent a third; but they wounded this man also, and threw him outside.
13 Alaila i iho la ka haku o ka malawaina, Pehea la wau e hana'i? E hoouna aku au i ka'u keiki punahele, aia ike lakou ia ia, e manao mahalo mai paha lakou ia ia.
‘What should I do?’ said the owner of the vineyard. ‘I will send my son, who is very dear to me. Perhaps they will respect him.’
14 A ike ua poe hoaaina la ia ia, kamailio iho la lakou ia lakou iho, i iho la, Eia ka hooilina; ina hoi! e pepehi kakou ia ia a make, i lilo io mai ka aina ia kakou.
But, on seeing him, the tenants consulted with one another. ‘Here is the heir!’ they said. ‘Let us kill him, and then the inheritance will become ours.’
15 A kipaku aku la lakou ia ia mawaho o ka malawaina, pepehi iho la a make. Heaha la hoi ka ka haku nona ka malawaina e hana mai ai ia lakou?
So they threw him outside the vineyard and killed him. Now what will the owner of the vineyard do to them?
16 E hele mai no ia a luku mai ia poe hoaaina, a e haawi aku i ka malawaina i kekahi poe e. Olelo iho la ka poe e hoolohe ana, Aole loa ia!
He will come and put those tenants to death, and will let the vineyard to others.” “Heaven forbid!” they exclaimed when they heard it.
17 A nana mai la oia ia lakou, i mai la, Heaha hoi ke ano o keia i palapalaia, O ka pohaku a ka poe nana hale i haalele ai, oia ke hooliloia i pohaku kumu no ke kihi?
But Jesus looked at them and said, “What then is the meaning of this passage? – ‘The stone which the builders despised has now itself become the cornerstone.’
18 O ka mea e haule maluna iho o ua pohaku la, e haihaiia oia, a o ka mea e hioloia'i e ia, e pepe loa no ia.
Everyone who falls on that stone will be dashed to pieces, while anyone on whom it falls – it will scatter him as dust.”
19 A imi iho la ka poe kahuna nui, a me ka poe kakauolelo e kau na lima maluna ona ia manawa, aka, ua makau lakou i kanaka: no ka mea, ua ike lakou, ua olelo mai oia i keia olelonane no lakou.
After this the teachers of the Law and the chief priest were eager to lay hands on Jesus then and there, but they were afraid of the people; for they saw that it was at them that he had aimed this parable.
20 A kiai aku la lakou ia ia, a hoouna ae la i na kiu e hookamani ia lakou iho he mau kanaka pono; e hoohihia ia ia i kana olelo, e haawi aku lakou ia ia i ka lima a me ka mana o ke kiaaina;
Having watched their opportunity, they afterward sent some spies, who pretended to be good men, to catch Jesus in the course of conversation, and so enable them to give him up to the Governor’s jurisdiction and authority.
21 A ninau aku lakou ia ia, i aku la, E ke kumu, ua ike makou he pololei kau olelo ana a me kau ao ana, aole oe i manao ia waho, aka, ua hoike oe i ka aoao o ke Akua me ka oiaio;
These spies asked Jesus a question. They said, “Teacher, we know that you are right in what you say and teach, and that you do not take any account of a person’s position, but teach the way of God honestly;
22 He pono anei ke hookupu makou ia Kaisara, aole anei?
are we right in paying tribute to the Emperor or not?”
23 Ike no hoi oia i ko lakou maalea, i mai la ia lakou, No ke aha la oukou i hoohuahualau mai nei ia'u?
Seeing through their deceitfulness, Jesus said to them,
24 E hoike mai oukou ia'u i kahi denari; nowai kona kii a me ka palapala? Hai aku la lakou, i aku la hoi, No Kaisara.
“Show me a coin. Whose head and title are on it?”
25 I mai la oia ia lakou, E haawi aku hoi i ka Kaisara ia Kaisara, a i ka ke Akua i ke Akua.
“The Emperor’s,” they said; and Jesus replied, “Well then, pay to the Emperor what belongs to the Emperor, and to God what belongs to God.”
26 Aole e hiki ia lakou ke hoohihia ia ia ma kana olelo imua o ke alo o kanaka: a kakanu iho la lakou me ka mahalo i ka olelo ana i hai mai ai.
They could not object to this answer before the people; and, in their wonder at his reply, they held their tongues.
27 Alaila hele ae la kekahi o ka poe Sadukaio, ka poe i hoole i ke alahouana: ninau aku la lakou ia ia,
Presently there came up some Sadducees, who maintain that there is no resurrection. Their question was this –
28 I aku la, E ke Kumu, ua palapala mai o Mose ia makou, O ka mea ua make kona kaikuaana ka mea wahine, a i make keiki ole, e mare aku kona kaikaina i kana wahine, a e hoohanau keiki na kona kaikuaana.
“Teacher, Moses laid down for us in his writings that – ‘Should a man’s married brother die, and should he be childless, the man should take the widow as his wife, and raise up a family for his brother.’
29 Ehiku no hoahanau kane; a mare aku la ka mua i ka wahine, a make keiki ole ia.
Well, there were once seven brothers; of whom the eldest, after taking a wife, died childless.
30 A mare iho la kona hope mai i ua wahine la, a make keiki ole no hoi ia.
The second and third brothers both took her as their wife;
31 A o ke kolu hoi, ua mare aku la oia ia ia, a pela no hoi lakou a ehiku; make iho la lakou, aole a lakou keiki.
and so, too, did all seven – dying without children.
32 A mahope o lakou a pau, make iho la no hoi ua wahine la.
The woman herself was the last to die.
33 A i ke alahouana, owai la ka mea o lakou ia ia ka wahine? No ka mea, ua mare lakou a ehiku ia ia.
About the woman, then – at the resurrection, whose wife is she to be, all seven brothers having had her as their wife?”
34 Hai mai la Iesu, i mai la ia lakou, O ko ke ao nei, ua mare lakou, a ua hoopalauia no hoi; (aiōn g165)
“The men and women of this world,” said Jesus, “marry and are given in marriage; (aiōn g165)
35 Aka, o ka poe e pono ke loaa pu ia lakou kela ao aku me ka hoala hou ia mai mai waena mai o ka poe make, aole o lakou e mare, aole no hoi e hoopalauia. (aiōn g165)
but, for those who are thought worthy to attain to that other world and the resurrection from the dead, there is no marrying or being married, (aiōn g165)
36 No ka mea, aole e hiki ia lakou ke make hou, no ka mea, e like no lakou me ka poe anela; he poe keiki hoi lakou na ke Akua, na keiki hoi o ke alahouana.
nor indeed can they die again, for they are like angels and, having shared in the resurrection, they are God’s children.
37 A no ka hoala hou ana o ka poe i make, ua hoike mai o Mose ma ka laau i kona kapa ana i ka Haku, ke Akua no Aberahama, ke Akua no Isaaka, ke Akua no Iakoba.
As to the fact that the dead rise, even Moses indicated that, in the passage about the Bush, when he calls the Lord – ‘The God of Abraham, and the God of Isaac, and the God of Jacob.’
38 Aole hoi ia he Akua no ka poe make, aka, no ka poe ola; no ka mea, e ola ana lakou a pau ia ia.
Now he is not God of dead people, but of living. For in his sight all are alive.”
39 Alaila olelo aku la kekahi poe kakauolelo, i aku la, E ke Kumu, ua pono kau olelo ana.
“Well said, teacher!” exclaimed some of the teachers of the Law,
40 Aole hoi o lakou i aa e ninau hou aku ia ia.
for they did not venture to question him any further.
41 A i mai la oia ia lakou, Pehea la hoi lakou i olelo ai, He keiki ka Mesia na Davida?
But Jesus said to them, “How is it that people say that the Christ is to be David’s son?
42 A o Davida kekahi i olelo mai ma ka buke Halelu, I mai la o Iehova i kuu Haku, E noho oe ma ko'u lima akau,
For David, in the book of Psalms, says himself – ‘The Lord said to my lord: Sit at my right hand,
43 A hoolilo iho au i kou poe enemi i paepae no kou mau wawae.
until I put your enemies as a stool for your feet.’
44 Nolaila, ina pela o Davida i kapa ai ia ia i Haku, pehea la hoi ia e keiki ai nana?
David, then, calls him ‘lord,’ so how is he David’s son?”
45 A i ka hoolohe ana o ka poe kanaka, olelo mai la oia i kana poe haumana,
While all the people were listening, Jesus said to the disciples,
46 E malama ia oukou iho i ka poe kakauolelo, ka poe i makemake e hele me ka lole hooluelue, a me ke alohaia mai ma kahi kanaka, a me na noho kiekie maloko o na halehalawai, a me na wahi maikai loa i na ahaaina;
“Be on your guard against the teachers of the Law, who delight to walk about in long robes, and like to be greeted in the streets with respect, and to have the best seats in the synagogues, and places of honor at dinner.
47 Ka poe i hoopau i na hale o na wahinekanemake, a hooloihi hoi i ka pule i ikeia mai ai; e nui auanei hoi ko lakou make.
These are the men who rob widows of their houses, and make a pretense of saying long prayers. Their sentence will be all the heavier.”
