< Mark 12 >

1 Lẹ́yìn ìgbà tí Jesu pa àwọn olórí ẹ̀sìn lẹ́nu mọ́, ó bẹ̀rẹ̀ sí í fi òwe bá wọn sọ̀rọ̀ pé, “Ọkùnrin kan gbin ọgbà àjàrà kan. Ó ṣe ọgbà yìí ká, ó sì wá ibi ìfúntí wáìnì, ó sì kọ́ ilé ìṣọ́ sí i ó sì fi ṣe àgbàtọ́jú fún àwọn olùṣọ́gbà, ó sì lọ sí ìrìnàjò tí ó jìnnà.
He began to speak to them in parables. “A man planted a vineyard, put a hedge around it, dug a pit for the wine press, built a tower, rented it out to a farmer, and went into another country.
2 Lákokò ìkórè, ọkùnrin náà rán ọ̀kan nínú àwọn ọmọ ọ̀dọ̀ rẹ̀ sí àwọn olùṣọ́gbà náà, kí ó gbà nínú èso ọgbà àjàrà náà lọ́wọ́ àwọn olùṣọ́gbà.
When it was time, he sent a servant to the farmer to get from the farmer his share of the fruit of the vineyard.
3 Ṣùgbọ́n àwọn àgbẹ̀ wọ̀n-ọn-nì lu ìránṣẹ́ ọkùnrin náà, wọ́n sì rán an padà lọ́wọ́ òfo.
They took him, beat him, and sent him away empty.
4 Ó sì tún rán ọmọ ọ̀dọ̀ mìíràn sí wọn. Bí àwọn àgbẹ̀ ti tún rí ọmọ ọ̀dọ̀ tí ó rán sí wọn; wọ́n lù ú. Àní, wọ́n tilẹ̀ dá ọgbẹ́ sí i lórí, wọn rán an lọ ni ìtìjú.
Again, he sent another servant to them; and they threw stones at him, wounded him in the head, and sent him away shamefully treated.
5 Ó sì tún rán òmíràn, èyí n nì wọ́n sì pa, àti ọ̀pọ̀ mìíràn, wọ́n lu òmíràn wọ́n sì pa òmíràn.
Again he sent another, and they killed him, and many others, beating some, and killing some.
6 “Ìránṣẹ́ kan ṣoṣo ló kù tí Baba olóko kò ì tí ì rán níṣẹ́, èyí ni ọmọ òun tìkára rẹ̀. Níkẹyìn ó ran an sí àwọn olùṣọ́gbà náà, pẹ̀lú èrò pé, ‘Wọn yóò bu ọlá fún ọmọ òun.’
Therefore still having one, his beloved son, he sent him last to them, saying, ‘They will respect my son.’
7 “Ṣùgbọ́n àwọn olùṣọ́gbà wọ̀n-ọn-nì wí fún ara wọn pé, ‘Èyí yìí ni àrólé. Ẹ wá, ẹ jẹ́ kí a pa á, ogún rẹ̀ yóò sì jẹ́ tiwa.’
But those farmers said among themselves, ‘This is the heir. Come, let’s kill him, and the inheritance will be ours.’
8 Báyìí ni wọ́n mú ọmọ náà tí wọ́n pa á. Wọ́n sì wọ́ òkú rẹ̀ jáde kúrò nínú ọgbà àjàrà náà.
They took him, killed him, and cast him out of the vineyard.
9 “Kí ni olúwa ọgbà àjàrà yóò ṣe nígbà tí ó bá gbọ́ ohun tí ó ṣẹlẹ̀. Dájúdájú yóò pa àwọn ẹni ibi wọ̀nyí. Yóò sì gba àwọn olùtọ́jú mìíràn sínú oko rẹ̀.
What therefore will the lord of the vineyard do? He will come and destroy the farmers, and will give the vineyard to others.
10 Tàbí ẹ̀yin kò ì tí ka ẹsẹ yìí nínú ìwé mímọ́: “‘Òkúta tí àwọn ọ̀mọ̀lé kọ̀sílẹ̀ òun náà ni ó di pàtàkì igun ilé.
Haven’t you even read this Scripture: ‘The stone which the builders rejected was made the head of the corner.
11 Èyí ni iṣẹ́ Olúwa ó sì jẹ́ ìyàlẹ́nu lójú tiwa’?”
This was from the Lord. It is marvelous in our eyes’?”
12 Àwọn olórí àlùfáà àti àwọn olùkọ́ òfin pẹ̀lú àwọn àgbàgbà fẹ́ mú Jesu lákokò náà. Nítorí tí wọ́n mọ̀ pé àwọn ló ń pòwe mọ́ nínú ọ̀rọ̀ rẹ̀. Àwọn ni alágbàtọ́jú búburú nínú ìtàn rẹ̀.

They tried to seize him, but they feared the multitude; for they perceived that he spoke the parable against them. They left him and went away.
13 Ṣùgbọ́n wọ́n rán àwọn Farisi pẹ̀lú àwọn kan tí í ṣe ọmọ-ẹ̀yìn Herodu wá sọ́dọ̀ Jesu, láti fi ọ̀rọ̀ wá a lẹ́nu wò, títí yóò fi sọ ohun kan kí wọn lè rí fi mú.
They sent some of the Pharisees and the Herodians to him, that they might trap him with words.
14 Bí wọn ti dé ọ̀dọ̀ rẹ̀, wọ́n wí pé, “Olùkọ́, àwa mọ̀ pé ìwọ máa ń sọ òtítọ́ láìsí ìbẹ̀rù ẹnikẹ́ni. Ṣùgbọ́n òtítọ́ ọ̀rọ̀ Ọlọ́run ni ìwọ máa ń kọ́ni. Nísinsin yìí, sọ fún wa, ó tọ́ tàbí kò tọ́ láti máa san owó orí fún Kesari?”
When they had come, they asked him, “Teacher, we know that you are honest, and don’t defer to anyone; for you aren’t partial to anyone, but truly teach the way of God. Is it lawful to pay taxes to Caesar, or not?
15 Kí àwa kí ó fi fún un, tàbí kí a máa fi fún un? Ṣùgbọ́n Jesu mọ ìwà àgàbàgebè wọn. Ó sì wí pé, “Èéṣe tí ẹ̀yin fi n fi èyí dán mi wo? Ẹ mú owó idẹ kan wá kí n wò ó.”
Shall we give, or shall we not give?” But he, knowing their hypocrisy, said to them, “Why do you test me? Bring me a denarius, that I may see it.”
16 Nígbà tí wọ́n mú owó idẹ náà fún un, ó bi wọ́n léèrè pé, “Ẹ wò ó! Àwòrán àti orúkọ ta ni ó wà níbẹ̀?” Wọ́n dáhùn pé, “Àwòrán àti orúkọ Kesari ni.”
They brought it. He said to them, “Whose is this image and inscription?” They said to him, “Caesar’s.”
17 Nígbà náà ni Jesu wí fún wọn pé, “Bí ó bá rí bẹ́ẹ̀, ẹ fi ohun tí ó bá jẹ́ ti Kesari fún Kesari. Ṣùgbọ́n ẹ fi ohun gbogbo tí í ṣe ti Ọlọ́run fún Ọlọ́run.” Ẹnu sì yà wọ́n gidigidi sí èsì rẹ̀.
Jesus answered them, “Render to Caesar the things that are Caesar’s, and to God the things that are God’s.” They marveled greatly at him.
18 Àwọn Sadusi tún wá sọ́dọ̀ rẹ̀, àwọn wọ̀nyí kò gbàgbọ́ pé àjíǹde ń bẹ. Ìbéèrè wọn ni pé,
Some Sadducees, who say that there is no resurrection, came to him. They asked him, saying,
19 “Olùkọ́, Mose fún wa ní òfin pé, nígbà tí ọkùnrin kan bá kú láìbí ọmọ, arákùnrin rẹ̀ gbọdọ̀ ṣú ìyàwó náà lópó kí wọn sì bímọ ní orúkọ ọkọ tí ó kú náà.
“Teacher, Moses wrote to us, ‘If a man’s brother dies and leaves a wife behind him, and leaves no children, that his brother should take his wife and raise up offspring for his brother.’
20 Ǹjẹ́ àwọn arákùnrin méje kan wà, èyí tí ó dàgbà jùlọ gbéyàwó, ó sì kú ní àìlọ́mọ.
There were seven brothers. The first took a wife, and dying left no offspring.
21 Arákùnrin rẹ̀ kejì ṣú obìnrin tí ó fi sílẹ̀ lópó, láìpẹ́, òun pẹ̀lú tún kú láìbímọ. Arákùnrin kẹta tó ṣú obìnrin yìí lópó tún kú bákan náà láìbímọ.
The second took her, and died, leaving no children behind him. The third likewise;
22 Àwọn méjèèje sì ṣú u lópó, wọn kò sì fi ọmọ sílẹ̀. Ní ìkẹyìn gbogbo wọn, obìnrin náà kú pẹ̀lú.
and the seven took her and left no children. Last of all the woman also died.
23 Ǹjẹ́ ní àjíǹde, nígbà tí wọ́n bá jíǹde, aya ta ni yóò ha ṣe nínú wọn? Àwọn méjèèje ni ó sá ni ní aya?”
In the resurrection, when they rise, whose wife will she be of them? For the seven had her as a wife.”
24 Jesu dáhùn ó wí fún wọn pé, “Kì í há ṣe nítorí èyí ni ẹ ṣe ṣìnà, pé ẹ̀yin kò mọ ìwé Mímọ́, tàbí agbára Ọlọ́run.
Jesus answered them, “Isn’t this because you are mistaken, not knowing the Scriptures nor the power of God?
25 Nítorí pé, nígbà tí àwọn arákùnrin méje yìí àti obìnrin náà bá jí dìde nínú òkú, a kò ní ṣe ìgbéyàwó fún wọn. Wọn yóò dàbí àwọn angẹli tí ń bẹ ní ọ̀run.
For when they will rise from the dead, they neither marry nor are given in marriage, but are like angels in heaven.
26 Ṣùgbọ́n nísinsin yìí, nípa bóyá àjíǹde yóò wà. Àbí ẹ̀yin kò ì tí ka ìwé Eksodu, nípa Mose àti pápá tí ń jó? Ọlọ́run sọ fún Mose pé, ‘Èmi ni Ọlọ́run Abrahamu, Ọlọ́run Isaaki àti Ọlọ́run Jakọbu.’
But about the dead, that they are raised, haven’t you read in the book of Moses about the Bush, how God spoke to him, saying, ‘I am the God of Abraham, the God of Isaac, and the God of Jacob’?
27 Òun kì í ṣe Ọlọ́run àwọn òkú bí kò ṣe Ọlọ́run àwọn alààyè: nítorí ẹ̀yin ṣe àṣìṣe gidigidi.”
He is not the God of the dead, but of the living. You are therefore badly mistaken.”
28 Ọ̀kan nínú àwọn olùkọ́ òfin ti ó dúró níbẹ̀ tí ó sì fetísílẹ̀ dáradára sí àròyé yìí ṣàkíyèsí pé, Jesu ti dáhùn dáradára. Òun pẹ̀lú sì béèrè lọ́wọ́ Jesu pé, “Nínú gbogbo òfin, èwo ló ṣe pàtàkì jùlọ?”
One of the scribes came and heard them questioning together, and knowing that he had answered them well, asked him, “Which commandment is the greatest of all?”
29 Jesu dá ọkùnrin yìí lóhùn pé, “Èyí tó ṣe pàtàkì jùlọ nínú àwọn òfin ni èyí tí ó kà báyìí pé, ‘Gbọ́ Israẹli; Olúwa Ọlọ́run wa Olúwa kan ni.
Jesus answered, “The greatest is: ‘Hear, Israel, the Lord our God, the Lord is one.
30 Kí ìwọ kí ó fi gbogbo àyà rẹ, àti gbogbo ọkàn rẹ, àti gbogbo ẹ̀mí rẹ, àti gbogbo agbára rẹ fẹ́ Olúwa Ọlọ́run rẹ, èyí ní òfin kìn-ín-ní.’
You shall love the Lord your God with all your heart, with all your soul, with all your mind, and with all your strength.’ This is the first commandment.
31 Èkejì ni pé: ‘Fẹ́ ọmọnìkejì rẹ.’ Kò sí òfin mìíràn tó ga ju méjèèjì yìí lọ.”
The second is like this: ‘You shall love your neighbor as yourself.’ There is no other commandment greater than these.”
32 Olùkọ́ òfin náà dáhùn pé, “Olùkọ́, ìwọ sọ òtítọ́ nípa pé Ọlọ́run kan ni ó ń bẹ, àti pé kò sí òmíràn àfi òun nìkan.
The scribe said to him, “Truly, teacher, you have said well that he is one, and there is none other but he;
33 Àti kí a fi gbogbo àyà, àti gbogbo òye, àti gbogbo ọkàn àti gbogbo agbára fẹ́ ẹ, àti fẹ́ ọmọnìkejì ẹni bí ara ẹni, ó ju gbogbo ẹbọ sísun, àti ẹbọ lọ.”
and to love him with all the heart, with all the understanding, all the soul, and with all the strength, and to love his neighbor as himself, is more important than all whole burnt offerings and sacrifices.”
34 Jesu rí i dájú pé òye ọkùnrin yìí ga, nítorí náà, Jesu sọ fún un pé, “Arákùnrin, ìwọ kò jìnà sí à ti dé ìjọba Ọ̀run.” Láti ìgbà náà lọ, ẹnikẹ́ni kò tún béèrè ohun kan lọ́wọ́ Jesu.
When Jesus saw that he answered wisely, he said to him, “You are not far from God’s Kingdom.” No one dared ask him any question after that.
35 Lẹ́yìn náà, nígbà tí Jesu ń kọ́ àwọn ènìyàn nínú tẹmpili, ó béèrè lọ́wọ́ wọn pé, “Èéṣe tí àwọn olùkọ́ òfin fi gbà wí pé Kristi náà ní láti jẹ́ ọmọ Dafidi?
Jesus responded, as he taught in the temple, “How is it that the scribes say that the Christ is the son of David?
36 Nítorí tí Dafidi tìkára rẹ̀, ti ń ti ipa Ẹ̀mí Mímọ́ sọ̀rọ̀ wí pé: “‘Olúwa sọ fún Olúwa mi pé: “Jókòó ní ọwọ́ ọ̀tún mi, títí èmi yóò fi sọ àwọn ọ̀tá rẹ di àpótí ìtìsẹ̀ rẹ.”’
For David himself said in the Holy Spirit, ‘The Lord said to my Lord, “Sit at my right hand, until I make your enemies the footstool of your feet.”’
37 Níwọ́n ìgbà tí Dafidi tìkára rẹ̀ pè é ní ‘Olúwa,’ báwo ni ó túnṣe lè jẹ́ ọmọ rẹ̀?” Ọ̀pọ̀ ènìyàn sì fi ayọ̀ gbọ́ ọ̀rọ̀ rẹ̀.
Therefore David himself calls him Lord, so how can he be his son?” The common people heard him gladly.
38 Ó sì wí fún wọn nínú ẹ̀kọ́ rẹ̀ pé, “Ẹ ṣọ́ra fun àwọn olùkọ́ òfin tí wọ́n fẹ́ láti máa wọ aṣọ gígùn káàkiri, tí wọ́n sì fẹ́ ìkíni ní ọjà,
In his teaching he said to them, “Beware of the scribes, who like to walk in long robes, and to get greetings in the marketplaces,
39 àti ibùjókòó ọlá nínú Sinagọgu àti ipò ọlá níbi àsè.
and to get the best seats in the synagogues and the best places at feasts,
40 Àwọn tí wọ́n jẹ ilé àwọn opó rún, tí wọ́n sì ń gbàdúrà gígùn fún àṣehàn, nítorí èyí, ìjìyà wọn yóò pọ̀ púpọ̀.”
those who devour widows’ houses, and for a pretense make long prayers. These will receive greater condemnation.”
41 Jesu jókòó ní òdìkejì kọjú sí àpótí ìṣúra: ó ń wo ìjọ ènìyàn ti ń sọ owó sínú àpótí ìṣúra, ọ̀pọ̀ àwọn ọlọ́rọ̀ sì sọ púpọ̀ sí i.
Jesus sat down opposite the treasury and saw how the multitude cast money into the treasury. Many who were rich cast in much.
42 Ṣùgbọ́n obìnrin opó kan wà, ó sì fi ààbọ̀ owó idẹ méjì síbẹ̀, tí ì ṣe ìdá méjì owó-babà kan sínú rẹ̀.
A poor widow came and she cast in two small brass coins, which equal a quadrans coin.
43 Jesu pe àwọn ọmọ-ẹ̀yìn rẹ̀, ó sọ fún wọn wí pé, “Lóòótọ́ ni mo wí fún yin pé, tálákà opó yìí sọ sínú àpótí ìṣúra ju gbogbo àwọn ìyókù to sọ sínú rẹ lọ.
He called his disciples to himself and said to them, “Most certainly I tell you, this poor widow gave more than all those who are giving into the treasury,
44 Nítorí pé, àwọn ìyókù mú nínú ọ̀pọ̀ ìní wọ́n, ṣùgbọ́n ní tirẹ̀, nínú àìní rẹ̀, ó sọ gbogbo ohun tí ó ní náà sílẹ̀ àní gbogbo ìní rẹ̀.”
for they all gave out of their abundance, but she, out of her poverty, gave all that she had to live on.”
