Marka 12
1 Aa le niorotse nisaontsy am-pandrazañañan-dre: Teo t’indaty nañalahala tanem-bahe: nañarikatoha’e kijoly, naho nihalia’e fipiritan-divay, mbore nandrafeta’e fitalakesañ’ abo, le nafondro’e am-pañalahala valòboke, vaho nitaveañe añe.
And he gave them teaching in the form of stories. A man had a vine-garden planted, and put a wall about it, and made a place for crushing out the wine, and put up a tower, and let it out to field-workers, and went into another country.
2 Ie sam-pamaramanta, le namantoke mpitoroñe hangalake amo mpañalahalao ty voka’ i tanem-bahe’ey.
And when the time came, he sent a servant to get from the workmen some of the fruit of the garden.
3 F’ie rinambe’ iereo naho nifofoheñe vaho nampipolie’ iereo mañomaño.
And they took him, and gave him blows, and sent him away with nothing.
4 Aa le nañitrifa’e mpitoroñe indraike; fe trinabotrabo’ iereo ty añambone’e, vaho nampisalareñe.
And again he sent to them another servant; and they gave him wounds on the head, and were very cruel to him.
5 Nañitrifa’e indraike, fe navetrake ty raike; le mbe nimaro ka, vinangovango ty ila’e, nohofan-doza ty ila’e.
And he sent another; and they put him to death: and a number of others, whipping some, and putting some to death.
6 Mbe ama’e ty honka’e, ty ana’e kokoa’e, ie ty sehangam-pirahe’e, fa hoe re: Hiasy i anakoy iereo.
He still had one, a dearly loved son: he sent him last to them, saying, They will have respect for my son.
7 Fe nikilily ty hoe i mpamondro rey: Intoy i mpandovay, antao hañè-doza ama’e vaho ho antika i lovay.
But those workmen said among themselves, This is he who will one day be the owner of the property; come, let us put him to death, and the heritage will be ours.
8 Aa le rinambe’ iereo naho namono aze, vaho navokovoko’ iereo alafe’ i tetem-bahey.
And they took him and put him to death, pushing his body out of the garden.
9 Aa vaho inoñe ty hanoe’ i Talèn-tetem-bahey? Hiheo mb’eo re hanjamañe o mpañalahalao, le hatolo’e ami’ty ila’e i tetem-bahey.
What then will the master of the garden do? He will come and put the workmen to death, and will give the garden into the hands of others.
10 Mbe tsy vinaki’ areo hao ty Sokitse Masiñe manao ty hoe: I vato nikihoe’ o mpandrafitseoy ie ty talen-kotsoke henaneo.
Have you not seen this which is in the Writings: The stone which the builders put on one side, the same was made the chief stone of the building:
11 Sata’ i Talè iza. le fiain-tane am-pihainon-tikañ’ ao?
This was the Lord's doing, and it is a wonder in our eyes?
12 Aa le nipay ty hitsepake aze iereo, f’ie nihembañe amy lahialeñey; nifohi’iereo te nanoa’e jera-fotots’aila am’iereo amy ohatsey, aa le nisitake aze vaho niavotse.
And they made attempts to take him; but they were in fear of the people, because they saw that the story was against them; and they went away from him.
13 Le nahitri’ iereo mb’ama’e o Fariseo naho o nte Heroda ila’eo hitsepake aze amo tsara’eo.
Then they sent to him certain of the Pharisees and the Herodians, so that they might make use of his words to take him by a trick.
14 Pok’eo iereo, nanao ty hoe: O Talè, fohi’ay te vañon-dRehe, tsy mañaon-keve’ ondaty, vaho tsy amam-pirihiañe, fa mañoke ty satan’ Añahare an-katò; Aa vaho Hake hao ty androroñañe vili-loha amy Kaisara, ke tsie?
And when they had come, they said to him, Master, we are certain that you are true, and have no fear of anyone: you have no respect for a man's position, but you are teaching the true way of God: Is it right to give taxes to Caesar or not?
15 Handroroñe hao zahay ke tsy handroroñe? Fe niarofoana’e ty famañahia’ iareo, le hoe re ama’e: Ino ty itsoha’ areo ahy? Añandeso drala henteako.
Are we to give or not to give? But he, conscious of their false hearts, said to them, Why do you put me to the test? give me a penny, so that I may see it.
16 Nañandesañe, le nanoa’e ty hoe, Sare naho soki’ ia v’itoio? A i Kaisara, hoe ty asa’ iareo:
And they gave him one. And he said to them, Whose is this image and name on it? And they said to him, Caesar's.
17 Aa le natoi’ Iesoà ty hoe: Atoloro amy Kaisara o a i Kaisarao, naho aman’ Añahare o an’ Andrianañahareo. Le nidaba ama’e iereo.
And Jesus said to them, Give to Caesar the things which are Caesar's, and to God the things which are God's. And they were full of wonder at him.
18 Nimb’ama’e ka o Tsadoke ila’eo, ie tsy miantoke i fivañonam-beloñey, vaho nitsok’ aze, ami’ty hoe:
And there came to him Sadducees, who say there is no coming back from the dead; and they put a question to him, saying,
19 O Talè, sinoki’ i Mosè aman-tika te ie vilasy ty rahalahi’ ondaty, naho mienga valy tsy aman’ anake, le ampañengàeñe i rahalahi’ey i vali’ey hameloma’e doria ho amy rahalahi’ey.
Master, in the law Moses says, If a man's brother comes to his end, and has a wife still living and no child, it is right for his brother to take his wife, and get a family for his brother.
20 Aa le teo ty mpirahalahy fito; nañenga valy ty valoha’e, f’ie nivetrake tsy nampipoke tiry.
There were seven brothers: and the first took a wife, and at his death there were no offspring;
21 Le vinali’ ty faharoe, f’ie ka nihomake tsy nampipoke tiry. Manahake izay ty fahatelo.
And the second took her, and at his death there were no offspring; and the third the same:
22 Leo raike amy mirahalahy fito rey tsy nampipoke doria. Fara’e nihomake ka i rakembay.
And all the seven had no seed. Last of all the woman herself came to her death.
23 Aa ie amy fivañonam-beloñey, naho mitroatse iereo, ia ama’e ty ho vali’e, kanao songa nanambaly aze i fito rey?
In the future life, when they come back from the dead, whose wife will she be? for the seven had her for a wife.
24 Hoe t’Iesoà am’iereo: Inay ie, ty mampandilatse anahareo, te tsy fohi’ areo i Sokitse Masiñey ndra ty haozaran’ Añahare.
Jesus said to them, Is not this the reason for your error, that you have no knowledge of the holy Writings or of the power of God?
25 Ie mitroatse ami’ty havilasy, tsy mañenga, tsy engaeñe; fa manahake o anjelin-dindìñeo.
When they come back from the dead, they do not get married, but are like the angels in heaven.
26 Le o vilasio, t’ie mitroatse, tsy vinaki’ areo hao amy boke’ i Mosèy ao te tsinaran’ Añahare boak’ amy rongoñey ty hoe: Andrianañahare’ i Abraàme iraho, naho t’i Andrianañahare’ Isaka, vaho t’i Andrianañahare’ Iakobe.
But as to the dead coming back to life; have you not seen in the book of Moses, about the burning thorn-tree, how God said to him, I am the God of Abraham, and the God of Isaac, and the God of Jacob?
27 Ie tsy Andrianañahare’o vilasio, fa Andrianañahare’o veloñeo, toe mañota nahareo.
He is not the God of the dead, but of the living: you are greatly in error.
28 Nimb’eo ty mpanoki-dily, nahajanjiñe ty fifandiera’ iareoy naho nahaoniñe te vinale’e soa vaho nañontanea’e ty hoe: Ino ty lily ra’elahi’ ama’e?
And one of the scribes came, and hearing their argument together, and seeing that he had given them a good answer, put the question to him, Which law is the first of all?
29 Natoi’ Iesoà ty hoe: Zao ty lohà’e: Mijanjiña ry Israele; Raike t’i Talè Andrianañaharen-tikañe,
Jesus said in answer, The first is, Give ear, O Israel: The Lord our God is one Lord;
30 Tsy mete tsy kokoa’o an-kaliforan’ arofo, naho an-kaàtsam-piaiñe, naho an-kaampom-pitsakoreañe vaho an-kaozara’o iaby t’i Talè, Andrianañahare’o.
And you are to have love for the Lord your God with all your heart, and with all your soul, and with all your mind, and with all your strength.
31 Hoe ty faharoe: Ampirao fikoko ami’ty vata’o ondatio. Tsy eo ty lily ambone’ irezay.
The second is this, Have love for your neighbour as for yourself. There is no other law greater than these.
32 Aa hoe ty asa’ i mpanoki-diliy tama’e: To i azoy, Talè, mahity i enta’oy te raike t’i Andrianañahare, tsy aman-tovo’e,
And the scribe said to him, Truly, Master, you have well said that he is one, and there is no other but he:
33 le ambone’ ze hene engan-koroañe naho soroñe ty fikokoañ’ aze an-kaampon’arofo naho an-kaàtsam-paharendrehañe naho an-kaliforan-kaozarañe vaho ty fikokoañe ondatio mira aman-teña.
And to have love for him with all the heart, and with all the mind, and with all the strength, and to have the same love for his neighbour as for himself, is much more than all forms of offerings.
34 Nifohi’ Iesoà t’ie nanoiñe an-kihitse, le hoe re ama’e: Tsy lavits’ azo i Fifehean’Añaharey. Aa le tsy eo ty nahavany ontane aze ka.
And when Jesus saw that he gave a wise answer, he said to him, You are not far from the kingdom of God. And every man after that was in fear of questioning him any more.
35 Hoe t’Iesoà te nañoke añ’Anjomban’ Añahare ao: Akore te atao’ o mpanoki-dilio te ana’ i Davide i Norizañey?
And Jesus, when he was teaching in the Temple, said, How do the scribes say that the Christ is the Son of David?
36 Toe asa’ i Davide añamy Arofo Masiñey ty hoe: Hoe t’i Talè amy Talèkoy: Miambesara an-tañan-kavanako etoañe, ampara’ te anoeko fitongoàm-pandia’o o rafelahi’oo.
David himself said in the Holy Spirit, The Lord said to my Lord, Be seated at my right hand, till I put those who are against you under your feet.
37 Aa ie natao’ i Davide, Talèko, ino ty maha ana’e aze? Le nahafale i lahialeñey ty nijanjiñe aze.
David himself gives him the name of Lord; and how then is he his son? And the common people gave ear to him gladly.
38 Hoe re amo fañoha’eo: Itaò o mpanoki-dily mpitea ty fijelanjelañañe an-tsaroñe mireparepa naho o fañontaneañe an-tsenao
And in his teaching he said, Be on your watch against the scribes, whose pleasure it is to go about in long robes and be respected in the market-places,
39 naho ty fiambesatse lohà’e am-pitontonañ’ao naho ty toem-piasiañe amo sabadidakeo,
And to have the chief seats in the Synagogues and the first places at feasts;
40 o mitamboavokake kibohom-bantotse naho mikoralava hañamahia’eo: ho mafe ty fandilovañe iareo.
Who take away the property of widows, and before the eyes of men make long prayers; these will be judged more hardly.
41 Teo re te niambesatse tandrife’ ty fampipoham-banabana eo nisamba ty satam-pampipoha’ ondatio drala ama’e, le maro ty mpañaleale nampipoke bey.
And he took a seat by the place where the money was kept, and saw how the people put money into the boxes: and a number who had wealth put in much.
42 Nimb’eo ka ty vantotse rarake, nampipoke drala roe miha-fah’efa’e.
And there came a poor widow, and she put in two little bits of money, which make a farthing.
43 Aa le tsinikao’e ho mb’ama’e o mpiama’eo, le nanoa’e ty hoe: Eka! to t’itaroñako te nampipoke maro am-panontonan-drala ao ty vantotse rarake toy te amy ze hene ila’e nañifike amy fanontonañey;
And he made his disciples come to him, and said to them, Truly I say to you, This poor widow has put in more than all those who are putting money into the box:
44 amy te boak’ ami’ty ambim-bara’e ty nampipoha’ iareo, fe amy hararaha’ey ro nampipoha’e ze fonga hanaña’e, ze hene fiveloma’e.
Because they all put in something out of what they had no need for; but she out of her need put in all she had, even all her living.
