Ruku 20
1 Hagi mago zupa ra mono nompi mani'neno, Knare Musenkea Jisasi'a veamokizmi rempi hunezmigeno, pristi vahe'mo'zane, kasegere ugota hu'naza vahe'mo'zane, ranra vahe'mo'zanena eme nege'za,
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 Councillors, confronted him,
2 anage hu'za Jisasina asami'naze, Nankna himamu eri'nenka amazana nehampi tasamio. Hifi i'za ama hihamua kaminegenka nehane?
and addressing him, said: “Tell us what authority you have to do these things. Who is it that has given you this authority?”
3 Hazageno Jisasi'a kenona anage hu'ne, Nagranena tamagrira tamagenoka hugahuanki nasamiho.
“I, too,” said Jesus in reply, “will ask you one question. Give me an answer to it.
4 Joni'ma mono ti frezmante'nea zana, vahe'mofo eri'zampi, monafinti eri'za eri fore hu'neo?
It is about John’s baptism — was it of divine or of human origin?”
5 Huno zamantahigege'za, zamagra zamagra hugantu hugama hu'za, Monareti eri'za erifore hu'ne huta hanunkeno'a, nahigeta Jonima hu'nea zankura tamentinti osu'naze? Huno hugahie.
But they began arguing together: “If we say ‘divine,’ he will say ‘Why did not you believe him?’
6 Hianagi tagrama huta mopafi vahe'mofo eri'zanema hanunkeno'a, maka vahe'mo'za have knonu tahefrigahaze. Na'ankure zamagra ko keza antahiza Joni'a kasnampa ne' mani'ne hu'naze.
But, if we say ‘human,’ the people will all stone us, for they are persuaded that John was a Prophet.”
7 Anage hu'za nehu'za, Jisasina kenona hunte'za, Mono tima frentezana igati e'neo tagra ontahi'none hazageno,
So they answered that they did not know its origin.
8 anage huno Jisasi'a zamagrira zamasami'ne, Nagranena i'za hihamu namigena e'nerufi ontamasmigahue huno hu'ne.
“Then I,” said Jesus, “refuse to tell you what authority I have to do these things.”
9 Hagi Jisasi'a veamokizmia amanahu fronka kea agafa huno zamasmine. Mago ne'mo'a waini hoza anteteno, kna'are kna'are mizaseterehu (rent) vahete waini hoza'a netreno, afete zazakna umaninaku vu'ne.
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 Waini ragama tagi knarera kazokzo eri'za ne'a, waini hozama kegava hu'ne'za mizasetere hugahune hu'naza vahete huntegeno vu'ne. Hianagi ana waini hoza kegava hu'naza vahe'mo'za kanonkeve nemiza, huntageno aza avapa vu'ne.
At the proper time he sent a servant to the tenants, that they should give him a share of the produce of the vineyard. The tenants, however, beat him and sent him away empty-handed.
11 Ete mago'ane, mago kazokzo eri'za ne'a huntegeno vige'za, zamagra kanonkeve nemiza azeri agaze nehuza huntageno, aza avapa vu'ne.
The owner afterwards sent another servant; but the tenants beat and insulted this man too, and sent him away empty-handed.
12 Anante ana hozamofo nefa'a, ete mago'ane rumofo huntegeno vige'za, anazanke hu'za ahe kuzafa nente'za, ana hozafintira fegi'a asagafe atre'naze.
He sent a third; but they wounded this man also, and threw him outside.
13 Na'a nagra hugahue? huno ana hozamofo nefa'a nehuno, nagrama navesi navesima hunentoa ne' mofavreni'a huntenugeno vanige'za, zamagra antahimigahazafi huno hu'ne.
‘What shall 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 Hianagi waini hozama kegava hu'naza vahe'mo'za nege'za, zamagra zamagra hu'za, amana mofavre'mo nefazana erisanti haregahianki, enketa aheta erisantima haresiazama'a erisune hu'naze.
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 Anage nehu'za azeri'za ana hozafinti fegi'a mate nevu'za ahageno fri'ne. Hanki e'i anama hu'naza zantera hoza nafa'amo'a, na'a zamagrira huzmantegahie?
So they threw him outside the vineyard and killed him. Now what will the owner of the vineyard do to them?
16 Hoza nefa'a Agra eno ana vahera eme zamahe nefrino, ana waini hoza rumokizmi hanare zamigahie. Jisasima ana kema hige'za nentahiza, anahura osugahie hu'za zamagra hu'naze!
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 Hianagi Jisasi'a nezmageno anage hu'ne, Na'ante amanage huno avontafepina krentene. Nogi vahe'mo'za zamesra huntaza havemo'a, no renegentete ugagota huno azeri hanaveti have fore hu'ne? (Sam-Zga 118:22)
But Jesus looked at them and said: “What then is the meaning of this passage? — ‘The very stone which the builders despised has now itself become the corner-stone.’
18 Maka vahe'ma ana have agofetuma takauresamo'za, kori kofagofa hugahaze. Hianagi ana havemo'ma iza agofetu takauresuno'a, rehapatisigeno kugusopa fore hugahaze.
Every one who falls on that stone will be dashed to pieces, while any one on whom it falls — it will scatter him as dust.”
19 Kasegere ugota hu'naza vahe'mo'zane, pristi vahe'mo'za Jisasina anante azerinaku hunazanagi, vaheku kore hu'naze. Na'ankure Agrama fronka kema hu'neana zamagrama nehaza zamuzmaku hu'negeze.
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 Ana nehu'za zmavu anteza keteza manine'za, afure vahe huzmantage'za, fatgo vahekna huza umanine'za kema hania kere azeriza ugagota vahete (gavana) vanage'za, kva vahete avrenente'za kegaga huntehogu vu'naze.
Having watched their opportunity, they afterwards 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 Zamagra anage hu'za Jisasina agenoka hu'za, tagra antahinone, Rempi hurami nemoka, kema nehunka rempi huzaminana fatgo hunka nehunka, mago vahe aza huzankuke nosunka, rempima huzaminana fatgo hunka Anumzamofo avu'avazankuke nehane.
These men 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 man’s position, but teach the Way of God honestly;
22 Hanki Romu kva ne' Sisama takisi zago nemunazamo'a knare hunefi, haviza hu'ne?
are we right in paying tribute to the Emperor or not?”
23 Hianagi Jisasi'a revatga hunaku'ma hazana ko negeno, amanage huno zamasmi'ne,
Seeing through their deceitfulness, Jesus said to them:
24 Naveri hinkena mago zagoa kaneno, iza amema'a megeno, na'ane hu'za anantera krente'naze? Higeno, zamagra Sisa amema'e hu'za hu'naze.
“Show me a florin. Whose head and title are on it?”
25 Jisasi'a anage huno zmasamine, Sisa zama me'neniana Sisa amiho. Hagi Anumzamofo zama me'neniana Anumzamofo amiho.
“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 Hige'za rama'a vahe zamavufi manineno kea nehige'za, zamagra revatga hu'za ke'afintira magore hu'za azerigara nosu'za, kenona zmima hiankegura antri hu'za kea osu'naze.
They could not lay hold of this answer before the people; and, in their wonder at his reply, they held their tongues.
27 Anante mago'a Sadusi vahe'mo'za, fripintira o'otigahaze nehaza vahe'mo'za, Jisasinte e'za,
Presently there came up some Sadducees, who maintain that there is no resurrection. Their question was this —
28 anage hu'za antahige'naze. Rempi hurami ne'moka, Mose'a anage huno avontafema kreraminefina hu'ne, Nempuamo a' erino manineno, mofavre kaseonteno frinigeno'a, negna ana ara erino, nefu mofavre erifore hino huno hu'ne. (Diu-Kas 25:5-6)
“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 Hanki 7ni'a kogna mani'nazankino nempuzmimo ara erino mofavre onte manineno frigeno,
Well, there were once seven brothers; of whom the eldest, after taking a wife, died childless.
30 negna ana ara eri'ne. Eriteno mofavre onte manineno fri'ne.
The second and third brothers both took her as their wife;
31 Anantemo'a anazanke huno ana ara erinteno, mofavre onteno frine. Anahukna hu'za ana maka'mo'za ana ara eri'za mofavre kaseonte manine'za fri'naze.
and so, too, did all seven — dying without children.
32 Fri vagaretazageno henkarfana ana ara fri'ne.
The woman herself was the last to die.
33 Hanki fri'nafinti oti snaza knazupa, inamofo a' manigahie? Na'ankure ana maka 7ni'amo'za ana ara erinte'naze, hu'za hazageno,
About the woman, then — at the resurrection, whose wife is she to be, all seven brothers having had her as their wife?”
34 Jisasi'a amanage huno zamasmi'ne, Ama knafi mani'naza vahe'mo'za ara e'neriza, ara masi ome ami nehaze. (aiōn g165)
“The men and women of this world,” said Jesus, “marry and are given in marriage; (aiōn g165)
35 Hianagi Anumzamo'a huno, veamo'za fri'nenafinti'ma oti'za henka manigahaze hu'nea veamo'za, arave osu'za ara masi omi ami osugahaze. (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 Na'ankure zamagra mago'ane ofrigahaze. Na'ankure zamagra ankero vahekna hu'za, Anumzamofo Mofavre nemaniza, kerifinti oti'nea mofavregna hu'za manigahaze.
nor indeed can they die again, for they are like angels and, having shared in the resurrection, they are God’s Sons.
37 Hianagi frite'za oti'naza zankura, Mosese'enena osi zafafinti teve anefa nehigeno ke'neazamofo naneke krenefina eriama huno, Abrahamuma, Jekopuma, Aisaki Ra Anumza mani'noe huno hu'ne. (Eks-Ati 3:6)
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 Hagi Agra fri vahe'mofo Anumzana omanine. Hianagi zamasimu eri'za nemaniza vahe'mofo Anumza mani'ne. Na'ankure mikamo'za agriteti zamasimura eri'za mani'naze.
Now he is not God of dead men, but of living. For in his sight all are alive.”
39 Mago'a kasegere ugota hu'naza vahe'mo'za kenona'a hu'za, Rempi Hurami Ne'moka knare ke hane hu'za hu'naze.
“Well said, Teacher!” exclaimed some of the Teachers of the Law,
40 Na'ankure mago'ene Jisasi'ma mago'azankuma agenoka hugara osu'za, antahionke'naze.
for they did not venture to question him any further.
41 Anante Jisasi'a amanage huno zamantahige'ne, Inankna hu'negu zamagra Kraisinkura Deviti nemofo'e hu'naze?
But Jesus said to them: “How is it that people say that the Christ is to be David’s son?
42 Na'ankure Deviti'a zagame avontafepina huno, Ramo'a nagri Ramofonku huno, nazantmaga kaziga mani'negena,
For David, in the Book of Psalms, says himself — ‘The Lord said to my lord: “Sit at my right hand,
43 ha' vaheka'a kagiafi zamare antanena zamagofetu kagia antenka manio hu'ne. (Sam-Zga 110:1)
until I put thy enemies as a stool for thy feet.”’
44 E'ina hu'negu Deviti'ma Ranimo'e hu'neana, inankna huno Deviti mofavrea Ramo'a manigahie?
David, then, calls him ‘lord,’ so how is he David’s son?”
45 Hakare veamo'za ana naneke nentahizageno, Jisasi'a amage'ma nentaza disaipol nagakura anage huno zamasami'ne,
While all the people were listening, Jesus said to the disciples:
46 Kasegere ugota hu'naza vahekura kva hiho. Zaza kukena hu'za vahe zmavuga vu'zankuke nehu'za, maketi kumapi vahe'mo'za antahinezmiza hu frufra huzmantesaza zanku nehu'za, osi mono nompina ugota trate manisaza zanku nehu'za, ra nezama nezupa, knare trate mani'zankuke nentahize.
“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 honour at dinner.
47 Kento a'nemokizmi fenozantami havige hu'za eneriza, anaza nosaza vahekna hu'za, vahe'mo'za antahiramisazegu zaza nunamu nehaze. E'inahukna zmavuzmava nehaza vahera, refkoma hania zupa tusi'a knaza zamigahie.
These are the men who rob widows of their houses, and make a pretence of saying long prayers. Their sentence will be all the heavier.”
