Лукастар 20
1 Екхвар, кала Исусо сиклярэлас манушэн дэ храмо и пхэнэлас Бахтало Лав, поджиле Лэстэ англунэ рашая тай сиклимаря пав Упхэнима їтханэ пхурэдэрэнца
One day [during that week, Jesus] was teaching the people in the Temple [courtyard] and telling them [God’s] good message. As he was doing that, the chief priests, the men who taught the [Jewish] laws, and [other Jewish] elders came to him.
2 и пхучле Лэстар: — Пхэн амэнди, савя зораґа Ту вса кода терэх? И ко дэня Тути кадыя зор?
They asked him, “Tell us, by what authority are you doing these things? Who authorized you to do things [like you did here yesterday]?”
3 Исусо пхэнда лэнди дэ отпхэнима: — Пхучява и Мэ тумэн, пхэнэн Манди:
He replied, “I will also ask you a question. Tell me,
4 катарь Иоанностэ зор тэ болдэ, упралимастар чи манушэндар?
where did John [the Baptizer] get [his authority to] baptize [those who came to him]? [Did he get it] from God [MTY/EUP] or from people?”
5 Тунчи вонэ дэдумане машкар пэстэ: — Кала пхэнаґа: «Упралимастар», — Вов пхучела: «Сости ж тумэ лэсти на патине?»
They discussed this among themselves. They said, “[If we(inc) say], ‘[It was] from God [MTY/EUP],’ he will say to us, ‘[Then] (you should have believed John’s [message]!/why did you not believe what John preached?) [RHQ]’
6 А кала пхэнаґа: «Манушэндар», — тунчи всавэрэ мануша марэна амэн барэнца, вонэ ж динэн, со Иоанно сля англунари.
But if we say, ‘It was [from] people,’ the people [here] will [kill us by] throwing stones at us, because they [all] believe that John was a prophet [from God].”
7 И пхэндэ: — Амэ на джянах, кастар.
So they replied, “We [(exc)] do not know where [John got his authority].”
8 Исусо пхэнда лэнди: — Тунчи и Мэ на пхэнава тумэнди, савя зораґа терав вса откада.
Then Jesus said to them, “[Because you did not answer my question], I will not tell you who authorized me to do those things [here yesterday].”
9 Тай пхэнда кацави дума: — Екх мануш выбарярда винограднико. Тунчи здэня лэ манушэнди пала ловэн, а еджино улагля пэ бут вряма.
Then Jesus told the people this parable [to illustrate what God would do to the Jews who rejected the former prophets and himself]: “A [certain] man planted a vineyard. He rented the vineyard to some men [to care for it and to give him some of the grapes in return]. Then he went to another country and stayed there several years.
10 Кала поджиля вряма, бичалда лэндэ пэхкэрэ бутярнэ, соб тэ залэ котор виноградостар, саво стидэне. Нэ виноградаря дукхавдэ бутярнэ и отбичалдэ лэ павпалэ шушэ вастэнца.
When [the vines started producing] grapes, he sent a servant to the men who were taking care of the vineyard. He expected that they would give him some of the grapes that the vineyard had produced. But [after the servant arrived], they beat him and they did not give him any grapes. They [just] sent him away.
11 Хулай бичалда лэндэ аврэ бутярнэ, нэ вонэ мардэ лэ тай тэлярдэ лэхкири патив, и отбичалдэ шушэ вастэнца.
[Later], [the owner] sent another servant. But they beat him and mistreated him [also]. They sent him away without giving him any grapes.
12 Хулай бичалда лэндэ инте екхэ бутярнэ. Нэ виноградаря и кодэлэ домардэ и вычутэ аври.
[Still later, the owner] sent another servant. That one they wounded and threw him out [of the vineyard].
13 Тунчи хулай пав винограднико пхэнда: «Со манди тэ терэ? Бичалава лэндэ мурэ камлэ чявэ, чи на ладжяна лэстар?»
So the owner of the vineyard thought to himself, ‘(I do not know what to do!/What shall I do?) [RHQ]’ [Then he had an idea. He thought to himself], ‘I will send my son, [whom I] love [very much]. Perhaps they will respect him [and give him my share of the grapes].’
14 Нэ виноградаря дыкхле чявэ и пхэндэ екх екхэсти: «Акэ кодэва, касти доросэлапэ всаворо хулаимо, муляраґа лэ, тунчи хулаимо доросэлапэ амэнди».
[So he sent his son], but when the men who were caring for the vineyard saw him [coming], they said to each other, ‘Here [comes] the man who will [some day] inherit [the vineyard]. Let’s kill him so that this vineyard will be ours!’
15 Тунчи вылиджялдэ чявэ аври виноградникостар тай мулярдэ лэ. И со терэла лэнца виноградникохкоро хулай?
So they dragged him outside the vineyard and they killed him. So (I will tell you what the owner of the vineyard will do to them!/do you know what the owner of the vineyard will do to them?) [RHQ]
16 Авэла тай мулярэла кадэлэн виноградарен, а винограднико отдэла аврэ манушэнди. Мануша, савэ шундэ Исусо, пхэндэ: — Тэ на авэл кади!
He will come and kill those men who were taking care of the vineyard. Then he will arrange for other people to take care of it.” When the people listening to Jesus heard that, they said, “[We would] not do anything like those wicked men did!”
17 Исусо вздыкхля пэ лэн и пхучля: — Сар тэ полэ кода, со чиндо: «Бар, саво вычутэ кодэла, ко ваздэнас цэр, ачиля шэрутнэ барэґа дэ вэнгло»?
But Jesus looked directly at them and said, “You can say that, [but think about] the meaning of these words that are written {which [a prophet] wrote} [RHQ] [in the Scriptures], The men who were building a house rejected a certain stone. But others put that same stone in its proper place, and it has become the most important stone in the building [MET].
18 Ко тэлэдэла пэ кодэва бар, розмарэлапэ, а пэ кастэ кодэва бар пэрэла, розтасавэла лэ.
[That stone represents me, the Messiah], and those who reject me are [like people who fall on this stone]. Everyone who falls on this stone will be broken to pieces {This stone will break to pieces everyone who falls on it}, and it will crush anyone on whom it falls.”
19 Дэ кодыя вряма сиклимаря пав Упхэнима тай англунэ рашая полиле, со Исусо пала лэн розпхэнэлас, и камле екхатар тэ хутилэ Лэ, нэ дарэне манушэндар.
The chief priests and the men who taught the [Jewish] laws realized that he was accusing them when he told the parable [about what those wicked men did]. So they immediately tried to find a way to seize [MTY] him, but [they did not seize him, because] they were afraid of [what] the people [there would do if they did that].
20 Тунчи вонэ ачиле тэ дыкхэ пала Исусо и подбичалэнас Лэстэ манушэн, савэ поддыкхэнас пала Лэ и прытховэнаспэ пативалэ манушэнца, нэ родэнас, сар тэ астарэ Исусо пэ лавэн тай тэ здэ Лэ раенди и прыбэшлэсти Римостар.
So they watched him carefully. They also hired (spies/secret agents) who pretended to be sincere. [But] they really wanted to get him to say something for [which they could accuse] him. They wanted to be able to turn him over to the authority of the governor [of the province. But they also knew that the Jews were disgusted with having to pay taxes to the government].
21 Вонэ пхучле Исусостар: — Сиклимари! Амэ джянах, со Ту пхэнэх тай сиклярэх пав чячима. И на дыкхэх пэ мо манушэсти, нэ сиклярэх манушэн чячюнэ Дэвлэхкэрэ дромэсти.
[So] one of them asked Jesus, “Teacher, we [(exc)] know that you [(sg)] speak and teach what is right. You tell the truth even if important people do not like it. You teach truthfully what God wants us to do.
22 Чи мишто пав Упхэнима тэ потинэ налогуря императости, чи нат?
[So tell us what you think about this matter]: Is it right that we pay taxes to the Roman government [MTY], or not?”
23 Исусо полиля лэнгоро хрантимо тай пхэнда лэнди:
But Jesus knew that they were trying to trick him [to get him into trouble, either with the Jews, who hated to pay those taxes, or with the Roman government]. So he said to them,
24 — Сикавэнтэ манди динарии: кахкоро муй исин вымардо пэр лэстэ и кахкоро катэ лав? Вонэ пхэндэ: — Императохкэрэ.
“Show me a [Roman] coin. [Then tell me] whose picture is on it. And [tell me whose] name is on it.” They [showed him a coin and] said, “It has the picture and name of Caesar, [the head of the Roman government].”
25 Исусо пхэнда лэнди: — Тунчи отдэн императости императохкоро, а Дэвлэсти отдэн Дэвлэхкоро.
He said to them, “In that case, give to the government [MTY] what they [require], and give to God what he [requires].”
26 Лэндэ на выджиля тэ схутилэ Исусо пэ лавэ англа манушэн. Вонэ дэнепэ дыво Лэхкэрэ лавэнди и заачиле мулком.
While the people were there, the [spies] were unable to find fault with him for what he said. And they were amazed at his answer. So they said nothing.
27 Тунчи авиле койсавэ саддукея. Вонэ на патянас, со мулэ отджювдёна, тай пхучле Исусостар:
Some Sadducees came to [Jesus]. They are a Jewish sect who do not believe that people will become alive again after they die.
28 — Сиклимари! Моисеи чинда амэнди, со, кала мэрэла мануш, кастэ сля ромни и на сля чяворэн, тунчи лэхкэрэ пхралэсти трэбуни тэ лэл боря паларом, соб тэ авэл пхралэстэ родо.
They [wanted to] ask [Jesus] a question [in order to discredit the idea that dead people will live again]. One of them said [to Jesus], “Teacher, Moses wrote for us [Jews] about situations where a man who has a wife but no children. If the man dies, his brother should marry the [dead man’s] widow so that she can have a child by him. People [will consider] that the child is the descendant of the man [who died], [and in that way the dead man will have descendants].
29 Сля эфта пхралэн. Пхурэдэр лэндар лиля пэсти ромня, нэ тунчи муля, и чяворэн на сля лэндэ.
Well, there were seven brothers in one family. The oldest one married, but he and his wife did not bear any children. Later he died.
30 Кади ж и авэр пхрал.
The second [brother followed this law and married the widow, but the same thing happened to him].
31 И трито пхрал лиля пэсти кадэла ромня, и кади ж всавэрэ эфта пхралэн. Всавэрэ пхрала помуле, и чяворэн лэндэ на сля.
Then the third [brother] married her, [but the same thing happened again]. All seven [brothers, one by one, married that woman], [but] they had no children, and [one by one] they died.
32 Тунчи муля и ромни.
Afterwards, the woman died, too.
33 Кала мулэ отджювдёна, кахкири ромни кадыя манушни авэла? Вой жэ эфта молы паларом выджялас!
Therefore, [if it is true that there will be a time] when dead people will become alive again, whose wife [do you think that woman] will be [then]? ([Keep in mind that she was married to all seven brothers!/It will be impossible to decide because] she was married to all seven brothers!) [RHQ]”
Jesus replied to them, “Men who live here in this world take wives, or are given wives [by their parents] {their [parents] choose wives [for them]}. (aiōn g165)
35 А касти вытэлэдэла патив тэ джювэ дэ авэр вако тай савэ отджювдёна мулэндар, кадэла мануша на лэн пэсти ромнен и паларом на выджян. (aiōn g165)
But the men whom God considers worthy of [being in heaven after] they become alive again will not be married. (aiōn g165)
36 Вонэ на мэрэна, нэ исин сар ангелуря. Вонэ важ Дэвлэ чявэ и чея, колэсти со авэна ваздэнэ мулэндар.
[You need to know also that] they cannot die any more, because they will be [immortal] [SIM] like angels. [The fact that God has caused] them to be alive again [will show] that they are God’s children.
37 Ай кода, со мулэ отджювдён, сикавда Моисеи паша терново кашт, саво пхаболас, кала пхэнда Раести, со Вов — Дэвэл Авраамохкоро, Дэвэл Исаакохкоро тай Дэвэл Иаковохкоро.
But [as for people] becoming alive again after they die, Moses wrote something about that. In the place where [he wrote about] the [burning] bush, he mentions the Lord as being the God whom Abraham [worships] and the God whom Isaac [worships] and the God whom Jacob [worships].
38 Вов — Дэвэл джювдэн, а на мулэн. Лэстэ всавэрэ исин джювдэ.
It is not dead people who worship God. It is living people who worship him. [Abraham, Isaac and Jacob died long before Moses lived, but God said that they were still worshipping him, so we(inc) know their spirits were still alive]! All [people] whose [spirits] are alive [again after they die continue to live to honor God]!”
39 Пэ кода койсавэ сиклимаря пав Упхэнима пхэндэ: — Сиклимари! Ту мишто пхэндан.
Some of the men who taught the [Jewish] laws replied, “Teacher, you [(sg)] have answered very well!”
40 И всавэрэ даранас тэ пхуче Исусостар дурэдэр.
After that, they no longer dared to ask him any more questions [like that to try to trap him].
41 Тунчи Исусо пхучля лэндэ: — Сар пхэнэн, со Христосо исин Чяво Давидохкоро?
Then Jesus said to them, “I will show you (OR, prove to you) that people [are wrong who] say that the Messiah is [merely] a descendant of [King] David! [RHQ]
42 Кала еджино Давидо пхэнэл дэ лил «Псалмы»: «Пхэнда Рай Дэвэл мурэ Раести: Бэш пав чяче вастэ Мандар
Because David himself wrote [about the Messiah] in the book of Psalms, God said to my Lord, Sit [here beside me] on my right, [where I will highly honor you(sg)] [MTY].
43 ды кодыя вряма, сар Мэ чувава Тирэ врыжымашэн тала пурэн Тути».
[Sit here] while I completely defeat your enemies.
44 Давидо акхарэл Лэ Раеґа. Сар Вов прыджялпэ Давидости чявэґа?
King David calls [the Messiah] ‘[my] Lord’! So ([the Messiah] cannot be [just someone] descended from [King] David!/how can the Messiah be [just] someone descended from [King] David?) [RHQ] [What I just said proves that he is much greater than David, isn’t that right]?”
45 И кала Исусо шундэ всавэрэ мануша, Вов пхэнда Пэхкэрэ сиклярнэнди:
While all the [other] people were listening, [Jesus] said to his disciples,
46 — Даран сиклимарендар пав Упхэнима, савэнди чялёл тэ пхирэ дэ лунго їда и соб мануша тэ наисарэнпэ лэнца пэ форо. Дэ синагога и дэ цэрэн, курик лэн акхарэн, вонэ камэн тэ бэшэ пэ англуно тхан.
“Beware that [you do not act like] the men who teach our [Jewish] laws. They like to put on long robes and walk around [to make people think that they are very important]. [They] also like [people to] greet them [respectfully] in the marketplaces. They like [to sit in] the most important places in the Jewish meeting places. At dinner parties [they like to sit in] the seats where the most honored people sit.
47 Вонэ залэн цэра джювлендар, савэндэ муле рома, и бут мангэнпэ кади, соб тэ дыкхэн лэн мануша. Лэн дожутярэл барэдэр сындо.
They swindle [MET] the houses [and property] of widows. [Then] they pretend they are good, as they pray [long] prayers [publicly. God] will [certainly] punish them very severely.”
