1. And it happened on one of those days, as He was teaching the people and proclaiming the gospel in the temple, the chief priests and the scribes came up, along with the elders,
|
1. And G2532 it came to pass G1096 , that on G1722 one G3391 of those G1565 days G2250 , as he G846 taught G1321 the G3588 people G2992 in G1722 the G3588 temple G2411 , and G2532 preached the gospel G2097 , the G3588 chief priests G749 and G2532 the G3588 scribes G1122 came upon G2186 him with G4862 the G3588 elders G4245 ,
|
|
2. and spoke to Him, saying, Tell us by what authority you do these things, or who is it who gave to you this authority?
|
2. And G2532 spake G2036 unto G4314 him G846 , saying G3004 , Tell G2036 us G2254 , by G1722 what G4169 authority G1849 doest G4160 thou these things G5023 ? or G2228 who G5101 is G2076 he that gave G1325 thee G4671 this G5026 authority G1849 ?
|
|
3. And answering, He said to them, I will also ask you one thing, and you tell me:
|
3. And G1161 he answered G611 and said G2036 unto G4314 them G846 , I will also ask G2504 G2065 you G5209 one G1520 thing G3056 ; and G2532 answer G2036 me G3427 :
|
|
4. The baptism of John, was it from Heaven, or from men?
|
4. The G3588 baptism G908 of John G2491 , was G2258 it from G1537 heaven G3772 , or G2228 of G1537 men G444 ?
|
|
5. And they reasoned with themselves, saying, If we say, From Heaven, He will say, Then why did you not believe him?
|
5. And G1161 they G3588 reasoned G4817 with G4314 themselves G1438 , saying G3004 , If G1437 we shall say G2036 , From G1537 heaven G3772 ; he will say G2046 , Why G1302 then G3767 believed G4100 ye him G846 not G3756 ?
|
|
6. But if we say, From men, all the people will stone us, for they are being convinced that John was a prophet.
|
6. But G1161 and if G1437 we say G2036 , Of G1537 men G444 ; all G3956 the G3588 people G2992 will stone G2642 us G2248 : for G1063 they be G2076 persuaded G3982 that John G2491 was G1511 a prophet G4396 .
|
|
7. And they answered, they did not know from where.
|
7. And G2532 they answered G611 , that they could not G3361 tell G1492 whence G4159 it was.
|
|
8. And Jesus said to them, Neither do I tell you by what authority I do these things.
|
8. And G2532 Jesus G2424 said G2036 unto them G846 , Neither G3761 tell G3004 I G1473 you G5213 by G1722 what G4169 authority G1849 I do G4160 these things G5023 .
|
|
9. And He began to speak this parable to the people: A certain man planted a vineyard and let it out to vinedressers. And he left the country for long periods of time. Isa. 5:1, 2
|
9. Then G1161 began G756 he to speak G3004 to G4314 the G3588 people G2992 this G5026 parable G3850 ; A certain G5100 man G444 planted G5452 a vineyard G290 , and G2532 let it forth G1554 G846 to husbandmen G1092 , and G2532 went into a far country G589 for a long G2425 time G5550 .
|
|
10. And in season, he sent a slave to the vinedressers, that they might give him the fruit of the vineyard. But the vinedressers sent him away empty, beating him.
|
10. And G2532 at G1722 the season G2540 he sent G649 a servant G1401 to G4314 the G3588 husbandmen G1092 , that G2443 they should give G1325 him G846 of G575 the G3588 fruit G2590 of the G3588 vineyard G290 : but G1161 the G3588 husbandmen G1092 beat G1194 him G846 , and sent him away G1821 empty G2756 .
|
|
11. And he again sent another slave. But they also sent that one away empty, beating and insulting him.
|
11. And G2532 again he sent G4369 G3992 another G2087 servant G1401 : and G1161 they G3588 beat G1194 him also G2548 , and G2532 entreated him shamefully G818 , and sent him away G1821 empty G2756 .
|
|
12. And he again sent a third. But they also threw this one out, wounding him.
|
12. And G2532 again he sent G4369 G3992 a third G5154 : and G1161 they G3588 wounded G5135 him G5126 also, and G2532 cast him out G1544 .
|
|
13. And the lord of the vineyard said, What shall I do? I will send my beloved son. Perhaps, having seen this one, they will respect him.
|
13. Then G1161 said G2036 the G3588 lord G2962 of the G3588 vineyard G290 , What G5101 shall I do G4160 ? I will send G3992 my G3450 beloved G27 son G5207 : it may be G2481 they will reverence G1788 him when they see G1492 him G5126 .
|
|
14. And having seen him, the vinedressers reasoned with themselves, saying, This is the heir. Come let us kill him so that the inheritance may become ours.
|
14. But G1161 when the G3588 husbandmen G1092 saw G1492 him G846 , they reasoned G1260 among G4314 themselves G1438 , saying G3004 , This G3778 is G2076 the G3588 heir G2818 : come G1205 , let us kill G615 him G846 , that G2443 the G3588 inheritance G2817 may be G1096 ours G2254 .
|
|
15. And throwing him out of the vineyard, they killed him. Therefore, what will the lord of the vineyard do to them?
|
15. So G2532 they cast G1544 him G846 out G1854 of the G3588 vineyard G290 , and killed G615 him. What G5101 therefore G3767 shall the G3588 lord G2962 of the G3588 vineyard G290 do G4160 unto them G846 ?
|
|
16. He will come and will destroy these vinedressers and will give the vineyard to others. And hearing this, they said, Let it not be!
|
16. He shall come G2064 and G2532 destroy G622 these G5128 husbandmen G1092 , and G2532 shall give G1325 the G3588 vineyard G290 to others. And G1161 G243 G1161 when they heard G191 it, they said G2036 , God forbid G1096 G3361 .
|
|
17. And looking at them He said, What then is this which has been written, "The stone that the builders rejected, this one came to be for the Head of the Corner"? Psa. 118:22
|
17. And G1161 he G3588 beheld G1689 them G846 , and said G2036 , What G5101 is G2076 this G5124 then G3767 that is written G1125 , The stone G3037 which G3739 the G3588 builders G3618 rejected G593 , the same G3778 is become G1096 the G1519 head G2776 of the corner G1137 ?
|
|
18. Everyone falling on that Stone will be broken in pieces but on whomever It falls, It will crush him.
|
18. Whosoever G3956 shall fall G4098 upon G1909 that G1565 stone G3037 shall be broken G4917 ; but G1161 on G1909 whomsoever G3739 G302 it shall fall G4098 , it will grind him to powder G3039 G846 .
|
|
19. And the chief priests and the scribes sought to lay hands on Him in the same hour. And they feared the people, for they knew that He told this parable against them.
|
19. And G2532 the G3588 chief priests G749 and G2532 the G3588 scribes G1122 the same G846 hour G5610 sought G2212 to lay G1911 hands G5495 on G1909 him G846 ; and G2532 they feared G5399 the G3588 people G2992 : for G1063 they perceived G1097 that G3754 he had spoken G2036 this G5026 parable G3850 against G4314 them G846 .
|
|
20. And watching carefully, they sent spies, pretending themselves to be righteous, in order that they might seize upon a word of His, so as to deliver Him to the power and to the authority of the governor.
|
20. And G2532 they watched G3906 him, and sent forth G649 spies G1455 , which should feign G5271 themselves G1438 just men G1342 , that G2443 they might take hold G1949 of his G846 words G3056 , that so they might deliver G3860 him G846 unto the G3588 power G746 and G2532 authority G1849 of the G3588 governor G2232 .
|
|
21. And they questioned Him, saying, Teacher, we know that You say and teach rightly, and do not receive a face, but You teach the way of God with truth.
|
21. And G2532 they asked G1905 him G846 , saying G3004 , Master G1320 , we know G1492 that G3754 thou sayest G3004 and G2532 teachest G1321 rightly G3723 , neither G2532 G3756 acceptest G2983 thou the person G4383 of any, but G235 teachest G1321 the G3588 way G3598 of God G2316 truly G1909 G225 :
|
|
22. Is it lawful to give tribute to Caesar, or not?
|
22. Is it lawful G1832 for us G2254 to give G1325 tribute G5411 unto Caesar G2541 , or G2228 no G3756 ?
|
|
23. But perceiving their slyness, He said to them, Why do you tempt Me?
|
23. But G1161 he perceived G2657 their G848 craftiness G3834 , and said G2036 unto G4314 them G846 , Why G5101 tempt G3985 ye me G3165 ?
|
|
24. Show Me a denarius. Whose image and superscription does it have? And answering, they said, Caesar's.
|
24. Show G1925 me G3427 a penny G1220 . Whose G5101 image G1504 and G2532 superscription G1923 hath G2192 it? They G1161 answered G611 and said G2036 , Caesar G2541 's.
|
|
25. And He said to them, Then give back the things of Caesar to Caesar, and the things of God to God.
|
25. And G1161 he G3588 said G2036 unto them G846 , Render G591 therefore G5106 unto Caesar G2541 the things G3588 which be Caesar G2541 's and G2532 unto God G2316 the things G3588 which be God G2316 's.
|
|
26. And they were not able to lay hold of His speech before the people. And marveling at His answer, they were silent.
|
26. And G2532 they could G2480 not G3756 take hold G1949 of his G846 words G4487 before G1726 the G3588 people G2992 : and G2532 they marveled G2296 at G1909 his G846 answer G612 , and held their peace G4601 .
|
|
27. And some of the Sadducees coming up, those speaking against a resurrection, that it was not to be, they questioned Him,
|
27. Then G1161 came G4334 to him certain G5100 of the G3588 Sadducees G4523 , which deny G483 that there is G1511 any G3361 resurrection G386 : and they asked G1905 him G846 ,
|
|
28. saying, Teacher, Moses wrote to us, If anyone's brother dies having a wife, and this one should die childless, that his brother should take the wife and raise up seed to his brother. Deut. 25:5
|
28. Saying G3004 , Master G1320 , Moses G3475 wrote G1125 unto us G2254 , If G1437 any man G5100 's brother G80 die G599 , having G2192 a wife G1135 , and G2532 he G3778 die G599 without children G815 , that G2443 his G846 brother G80 should take G2983 his wife G1135 , and G2532 raise up G1817 seed G4690 unto his G848 brother G80 .
|
|
29. Then there were seven brothers. And having taken a wife, the first died childless.
|
29. There were G2258 therefore G3767 seven G2033 brethren G80 : and G2532 the G3588 first G4413 took G2983 a wife G1135 , and died G599 without children G815 .
|
|
30. And the second took the wife, and this one died childless.
|
30. And G2532 the G3588 second G1208 took G2983 her to wife G1135 , and G2532 he G3778 died G599 childless G815 .
|
|
31. And the third took her, and likewise also the seven did not leave children, and died.
|
31. And G2532 the G3588 third G5154 took G2983 her G846 ; and G1161 in like manner G5615 the G3588 seven G2033 also G2532 : and they left G2641 no G3756 children G5043 , and G2532 died G599 .
|
|
32. And last of all the woman died.
|
32. G1161 Last G5305 of all G3956 the G3588 woman G1135 died G599 also G2532 .
|
|
33. Then in the resurrection, of which of them does she become wife? For the seven had her as wife.
|
33. Therefore G3767 in G1722 the G3588 resurrection G386 whose G5101 wife G1135 of them G846 is she G1096 ? for G1063 seven G2033 had G2192 her G846 to wife G1135 .
|
|
34. And answering, Jesus said to them, The sons of this world marry and are given in marriage.
|
34. And G2532 Jesus G2424 answering G611 said G2036 unto them G846 , The G3588 children G5207 of this G5127 world G165 marry G1060 , and G2532 are given in marriage G1548 :
|
|
35. But those counted worthy to obtain that world, and the resurrection from the dead, neither marry nor are given in marriage.
|
35. But G1161 they which shall be accounted worthy G2661 to obtain G5177 that G1565 world G165 , and G2532 the G3588 resurrection G386 from G1537 the dead G3498 , neither G3777 marry G1060 , nor G3777 are given in marriage G1548 :
|
|
36. For they are not able to die any more; they are equal to angels, and are sons of God, being sons of the resurrection.
|
36. G1063 Neither G3777 can G1410 they die G599 any more G2089 : for G1063 they are G1526 equal unto the angels G2465 ; and G2532 are G1526 the children G5207 of God G2316 , being G5607 the children G5207 of the G3588 resurrection G386 .
|
|
37. But that the dead are raised, even Moses pointed out at the Bush, when he calls the Lord "the God of Abraham, and the God of Isaac, and the God of Jacob." Ex. 3:6
|
37. Now G1161 that G3754 the G3588 dead G3498 are raised G1453 , even G2532 Moses G3475 showed G3377 at G1909 the G3588 bush G942 , when G5613 he calleth G3004 the Lord G2962 the G3588 God G2316 of Abraham G11 , and G2532 the G3588 God G2316 of Isaac G2464 , and G2532 the G3588 God G2316 of Jacob G2384 .
|
|
38. But He is not God of the dead, but of the living, for all live to Him.
|
38. For G1161 he is G2076 not G3756 a God G2316 of the dead G3498 , but G235 of the living G2198 : for G1063 all G3956 live G2198 unto him G846 .
|
|
39. And answering, some of the scribes said, Teacher, you speak well.
|
39. Then G1161 certain G5100 of the G3588 scribes G1122 answering G611 said G2036 , Master G1320 , thou hast well G2573 said G2036 .
|
|
40. And they did not dare to question Him any more, not a thing.
|
40. And G1161 after that they durst G5111 not G3765 ask G1905 him G846 any G3762 question at all.
|
|
41. And He said to them, How do they say the Christ is David's son?
|
41. And G1161 he said G2036 unto G4314 them G846 , How G4459 say G3004 they that Christ G5547 is G1511 David G1138 's son G5207 ?
|
|
42. Even David himself said in the Book of Psalms, "The Lord said to my Lord, Sit at My right hand
|
42. And G2532 David G1138 himself G846 saith G3004 in G1722 the book G976 of Psalms G5568 , The G3588 Lord G2962 said G2036 unto my G3450 Lord G2962 , Sit G2521 thou on G1537 my G3450 right hand G1188 ,
|
|
43. until I place the ones hostile to You as a footstool of Your feet." LXX-Psa. 109:1; MT-Psa. 110:1
|
43. Till G2193 G302 I make G5087 thine G4675 enemies G2190 thy G4675 footstool G5286 G4228 .
|
|
44. Then David calls Him Lord. And how is He his son?
|
44. David G1138 therefore G3767 calleth G2564 him G846 Lord G2962 , how G4459 is he G2076 then G2532 his G846 son G5207 ?
|
|
45. And as all the people were listening, He said to His disciples,
|
45. Then G1161 in the audience G191 of all G3956 the G3588 people G2992 he said G2036 unto his G848 disciples G3101 ,
|
|
46. Beware of the scribes, those desiring to walk about in long robes, and liking greetings in the markets, and chief seats in the synagogues, and chief couches in the suppers,
|
46. Beware G4337 of G575 the G3588 scribes G1122 , which desire G2309 to walk G4043 in G1722 long robes G4749 , and G2532 love G5368 greetings G783 in G1722 the G3588 markets G58 , and G2532 the highest seats G4410 in G1722 the G3588 synagogues G4864 , and G2532 the chief rooms G4411 at G1722 feasts G1173 ;
|
|
47. who devour the houses of the widows, and under pretense pray long. These will receive a more severe judgment.
|
47. Which G3739 devour G2719 widows G5503 ' houses G3614 , and G2532 for a show G4392 make long prayers G4336 G3117 : the same G3778 shall receive G2983 greater G4055 damnation G2917 .
