12:1

Και ηρξατο αυτοις εν παραβολαις λαλειν Αμπελωνα ανθρωπος εφυτευσεν και περιεθηκεν φραγμον και ωρυξεν υποληνιον και ωκοδομησεν πυργον και εξεδετο αυτον γεωργοις και απεδημησεν

And he began to speak unto them in parables. A man planted a vineyard, and set a hedge about it, and digged a pit for the winepress, and built a tower, and let it out to husbandmen, and went into another country.

12:2

Και απεστειλεν προς τους γεωργους τω καιρω δουλον ινα παρα των γεωργων λαβη απο των καρπων του αμπελωνος

And at the season he sent to the husbandmen a servant, that he might receive from the husbandmen of the fruits of the vineyard.

12:3

και λαβοντες αυτον εδειραν και απεστειλαν κενον

And they took him, and beat him, and sent him away empty.

12:4

Και παλιν απεστειλεν προς αυτους αλλον δουλον κακεινον εκεφαλιωσαν και ητιμασαν

And again he sent unto them another servant; and him they wounded in the head, and handled shamefully.

12:5

και αλλον απεστειλεν κακεινον απεκτειναν και πολλους αλλους ους μεν δεροντες ους δε αποκτεννοντες

And he sent another; and him they killed: and many others; beating some, and killing some.

12:6

Ετι ενα ειχεν υιον αγαπητον απεστειλεν αυτον εσχατον προς αυτους λεγων οτι Εντραπησονται τον υιον μου

He had yet one, a beloved son: he sent him last unto them, saying, They will reverence my son.

12:7

Εκεινοι δε οι γεωργοι προς εαυτους ειπαν οτι Ουτος εστιν ο κληρονομος δευτε αποκτεινωμεν αυτον και ημων εσται η κληρονομια

But those husbandmen said among themselves, This is the heir; come, let us kill him, and the inheritance shall be ours.

12:8

και λαβοντες απεκτειναν αυτον και εξεβαλον αυτον εξω του αμπελωνος

And they took him, and killed him, and cast him forth out of the vineyard.

12:9

Τι ουν ποιησει ο κυριος του αμπελωνος ελευσεται και απολεσει τους γεωργους και δωσει τον αμπελωνα αλλοις

What therefore will the lord of the vineyard do? he will come and destroy the husbandmen, and will give the vineyard unto others.

12:10

ουδε την γραφην ταυτην ανεγνωτε Λιθον ον απεδοκιμασαν οι οικοδομουντες Ουτος εγενηθη εις κεφαλην γωνιας

Have ye not read even this scripture: The stone which the builders rejected, The same was made the head of the corner;

12:11

Παρα Κυριου εγενετο αυτη Και εστιν θαυμαστη εν οφθαλμοις ημων

This was from the Lord, And it is marvellous in our eyes?

12:12

Και εζητουν αυτον κρατησαι και εφοβηθησαν τον οχλον εγνωσαν γαρ οτι προς αυτους την παραβολην ειπεν και αφεντες αυτον απηλθον

And they sought to lay hold on him; and they feared the multitude; for they perceived that he spake the parable against them: and they left him, and went away.

12:13

Και αποστελλουσιν προς αυτον τινας των Φαρισαιων και των Ηρωδιανων ινα αυτον αγρευσωσιν λογω

And they send unto him certain of the Pharisees and of the Herodians, that they might catch him in talk.

12:14

και ελθοντες λεγουσιν αυτω Διδασκαλε οιδαμεν οτι αληθης ει και ου μελει σοι περι ουδενος ου γαρ βλεπεις εις προσωπον ανθρωπων αλλ επ αληθειας την οδον του Θεου διδασκεις εξεστιν δουναι κηνσον Καισαρι η ου δωμεν η μη δωμεν

And when they were come, they say unto him, Teacher, we know that thou art true, and carest not for any one; for thou regardest not the person of men, but of a truth teachest the way of God: Is it lawful to give tribute unto Cæsar, or not?

12:15

Ο δε ειδως αυτων την υποκρισιν ειπεν αυτοις Τι με πειραζετε φερετε μοι δηναριον ινα ιδω

Shall we give, or shall we not give? But he, knowing their hypocrisy, said unto them, Why make ye trial of me? bring me a denarius, that I may see it.

12:16

οι δε ηνεγκαν και λεγει αυτοις Τινος η εικων αυτη και η επιγραφη Οι δε ειπαν αυτω Καισαρος

And they brought it. And he saith unto them, Whose is this image and superscription? And they said unto him, Cæsar’s.

12:17

Ο δε Ιησους ειπεν αυτοις Τα Καισαρος αποδοτε Καισαρι και τα του Θεου τω Θεω Και εξεθαυμαζον επ αυτω

And Jesus said unto them, Render unto Cæsar the things that are Cæsar’s, and unto God the things that are God’s. And they marvelled greatly at him.

12:18

Και ερχονται Σαδδουκαιοι προς αυτον οιτινες λεγουσιν αναστασιν μη ειναι και επηρωτων αυτον λεγοντες

And there come unto him Sadducees, who say that there is no resurrection; and they asked him, saying,

12:19

Διδασκαλε Μωυσης εγραψεν ημιν οτι εαν τινος αδελφος αποθανη και καταλιπη γυναικα και μη αφη τεκνον ινα λαβη ο αδελφος αυτου την γυναικα και εξαναστηση σπερμα τω αδελφω αυτου

Teacher, Moses wrote unto us, If a man’s brother die, and leave a wife behind him, and leave no child, that his brother should take his wife, and raise up seed unto his brother.

12:20

επτα αδελφοι ησαν και ο πρωτος ελαβεν γυναικα και αποθνησκων ουκ αφηκεν σπερμα

There were seven brethren: and the first took a wife, and dying left no seed;

12:21

και ο δευτερος ελαβεν αυτην και απεθανεν μη καταλιπων σπερμα και ο τριτος ωσαυτως

and the second took her, and died, leaving no seed behind him; and the third likewise:

12:22

και οι επτα ουκ αφηκαν σπερμα εσχατον παντων και η γυνη απεθανεν

and the seven left no seed. Last of all the woman also died.

12:23

εν τη αναστασει οταν αναστωσιν τινος αυτων εσται γυνη οι γαρ επτα εσχον αυτην γυναικα

In the resurrection whose wife shall she be of them? for the seven had her to wife.

12:24

Εφη αυτοις ο Ιησους Ου δια τουτο πλανασθε μη ειδοτες τας γραφας μηδε την δυναμιν του Θεου

Jesus said unto them, Is it not for this cause that ye err, that ye know not the scriptures, nor the power of God?

12:25

οταν γαρ εκ νεκρων αναστωσιν ουτε γαμουσιν ουτε γαμιζονται αλλ εισιν ως αγγελοι εν τοις ουρανοις

For when they shall rise from the dead, they neither marry, nor are given in marriage; but are as angels in heaven.

12:26

Περι δε των νεκρων οτι εγειρονται ουκ ανεγνωτε εν τη βιβλω Μωυσεως επι του Βατου πως ειπεν αυτω ο Θεος λεγων Εγω ο Θεος Αβρααμ και ο Θεος Ισαακ και ο Θεος Ιακωβ

But as touching the dead, that they are raised; have ye not read in the book of Moses, in the place concerning the Bush, how God spake unto him, saying, I am the God of Abraham, and the God of Isaac, and the God of Jacob?

12:27

ουκ εστιν Θεος νεκρων αλλα ζωντων πολυ πλανασθε

He is not the God of the dead, but of the living: ye do greatly err.

12:28

Και προσελθων εις των γραμματεων ακουσας αυτων συζητουντων ιδων οτι καλως απεκριθη αυτοις επηρωτησεν αυτον Ποια εστιν εντολη πρωτη παντων

And one of the scribes came, and heard them questioning together, and knowing that he had answered them well, asked him, What commandment is the first of all?

12:29

Απεκριθη ο Ιησους Οτι Πρωτη εστιν Ακουε Ισραηλ Κυριος ο Θεος ημων Κυριος εις εστιν

Jesus answered, The first is, Hear, O Israel; The Lord our God, the Lord is one:

12:30

και αγαπησεις Κυριον τον Θεον σου εξ ολης της καρδιας σου και εξ ολης της ψυχης σου και εξ ολης της διανοιας σου και εξ ολης της ισχυος σου

and thou shalt love the Lord thy God with all thy heart, and with all thy soul, and with all thy mind, and with all thy strength.

12:31

δευτερα αυτη Αγαπησεις τον πλησιον σου ως σεαυτον μειζων τουτων αλλη εντολη ουκ εστιν

The second is this, Thou shalt love thy neighbor as thyself. There is none other commandment greater than these.

12:32

Και ειπεν αυτω ο γραμματευς Καλως Διδασκαλε επ αληθειας ειπες οτι εις εστιν και ουκ εστιν αλλος πλην αυτου

And the scribe said unto him, Of a truth, Teacher, thou hast well said that he is one; and there is none other but he:

12:33

και το αγαπαν αυτον εξ ολης της καρδιας και εξ ολης της συνεσεως και εξ ολης της ισχυος και το αγαπαν τον πλησιον ως εαυτον περισσοτερον εστιν παντων των ολοκαυτωματων και θυσιων

and to love him with all the heart, and with all the understanding, and with all the strength, and to love his neighbor as himself, is much more than all whole burnt-offerings and sacrifices.

12:34

Και ο Ιησους ιδων αυτον οτι νουνεχως απεκριθη ειπεν αυτω Ου μακραν ει απο της βασιλειας του Θεου και ουδεις ουκετι ετολμα αυτον επερωτησαι

And when Jesus saw that he answered discreetly, he said unto him, Thou art not far from the kingdom of God. And no man after that durst ask him any question.

12:35

Και αποκριθεις ο Ιησους ελεγεν διδασκων εν τω ιερω Πως λεγουσιν οι γραμματεις οτι ο Χριστος υιος Δαυιδ εστιν

And Jesus answered and said, as he taught in the temple, How say the scribes that the Christ is the son of David?

12:36

αυτος Δαυιδ ειπεν εν τω Πνευματι τω Αγιω Ειπεν Κυριος τω Κυριω μου Καθου εκ δεξιων μου Εως αν θω τους εχθρους σου Υποκατω των ποδων σου

David himself said in the Holy Spirit, The Lord said unto my Lord, Sit thou on my right hand, Till I make thine enemies the footstool of thy feet.

12:37

Αυτος Δαυιδ λεγει αυτον Κυριον και ποθεν αυτου εστιν υιος Και ο πολυς οχλος ηκουεν αυτου ηδεως

David himself calleth him Lord; and whence is he his son? And the common people heard him gladly.

12:38

Και εν τη διδαχη αυτου ελεγεν Βλεπετε απο των γραμματεων των θελοντων εν στολαις περιπατειν και ασπασμους εν ταις αγοραις

And in his teaching he said, Beware of the scribes, who desire to walk in long robes, and to have salutations in the marketplaces,

12:39

και πρωτοκαθεδριας εν ταις συναγωγαις και πρωτοκλισιας εν τοις δειπνοις

and chief seats in the synagogues, and chief places at feasts:

12:40

οι κατεσθιοντες τας οικιας των χηρων και προφασει μακρα προσευχομενοι ουτοι λημψονται περισσοτερον κριμα

they that devour widows’ houses, and for a pretence make long prayers; these shall receive greater condemnation.

12:41

Και καθισας κατεναντι του γαζοφυλακιου εθεωρει πως ο οχλος βαλλει χαλκον εις το γαζοφυλακιον και πολλοι πλουσιοι εβαλλον πολλα

And he sat down over against the treasury, and beheld how the multitude cast money into the treasury: and many that were rich cast in much.

12:42

και ελθουσα μια χηρα πτωχη εβαλεν λεπτα δυο ο εστιν κοδραντης

And there came a poor widow, and she cast in two mites, which make a farthing.

¹

12:43

Και προσκαλεσαμενος τους μαθητας αυτου ειπεν αυτοις Αμην λεγω υμιν οτι η χηρα αυτη η πτωχη πλειον παντων εβαλεν των βαλλοντων εις το γαζοφυλακιον

And he called unto him his disciples, and said unto them, Verily I say unto you, This poor widow cast in more than all they that are casting into the treasury:

12:44

παντες γαρ εκ του περισσευοντος αυτοις εβαλον αυτη δε εκ της υστερησεως αυτης παντα οσα ειχεν εβαλεν ολον τον βιον αυτης

for they all did cast in of their superfluity; but she of her want did cast in all that she had, even all her living.
