CHAPTER 20

1

και

εγενετο

εν

μια

των

ημερων

εκεινων

διδασκοντος

αυτου

And

it came to pass

on

one

of those days,

♦

♦

as was 2 teaching 3

he 1

τον

λαον

εν

τω

ιερω

και

ευαγγελιζομενου

επεστησαν

οι

αρχιερεις

the

people

in

the

temple

and

announcing the glad tidings,

came up

the

chief priests

και

οι

γραμματεις

συν

τοις

πρεσβυτεροις

and

the

scribes

with

the

elders

2

και

ειπον

προς

αυτον

λεγοντες

ειπε

ημιν

εν

ποια

εξουσια

ταυτα

and

spoke

to

him,

saying,

Tell

us

by

what

authority

these things

ποιεις

η

τις

εστιν

ο

δους

σοι

την

εξουσιαν

ταυτην

thou doest,

or

who

it is

who

gave

to thee

♦

this authority?

♦

3

αποκριθεις

δε

ειπεν

προς

αυτους

ερωτησω

υμας

καγω

ενα

λογον

και

And answering

♦

he said

to

them,

Will 3 ask 4

you 5

I 1 also 2

one

thing,

and

ειπατε		μοι
tell		me,

4

το

βαπτισμα

ιωαννου

εξ

ουρανου

ην

η

εξ

ανθρωπων

The

baptism

of John

from

heaven

was it

or

from

men?

5

οι

δε

συνελογισαντο

προς

εαυτους

λεγοντες

οτι

εαν

ειπωμεν

And they

♦

reasoned

among

themselves,

saying,

♦

If

we should say

εξ

ουρανου

ερει

δια

τι

ουν

ουκ

επιστευσατε

From

heaven,

he will say

Why

then

did ye not believe

♦

him?

6

εαν

δε

ειπωμεν

εξ

ανθρωπων

πας

ο

λαος

καταλιθασει

ημας

But if

♦

we should say

From

men,

all

the

people

will stone

us;

πεπεισμενος

γαρ

εστιν

ιωαννην

προφητην

ειναι

for they are persuaded [that]

♦

♦

John

a 2 prophet 3

was. 1

7

και

απεκριθησαν

μη

ειδεναι

ποθεν

And

they answered

they knew not

♦

whence.

8

και

ο

ιησους

ειπεν

αυτοις

ουδε

εγω

λεγω

υμιν

εν

ποια

εξουσια

And

♦

Jesus

said

to them,

Neither

I 2

tell 1

you

by

what

authority

ταυτα		ποιω
these things		I do.

9

ηρξατο

δε

προς

τον

λαον

λεγειν

την

παραβολην

ταυτην

And he began

♦

to

the

people

to speak

this parable:

♦

♦

ανθρωπος

τις

εφυτευσεν

αμπελωνα

και

εξεδοτο

αυτον

γεωργοις

A man 2

certain 1

planted

a vineyard,

and

let out

it

to husbandmen,

και		απεδημησεν		χρονους		ικανους
and		left the country		for along time.		♦

10

και

εν

καιρω

απεστειλεν

προς

τους

γεωργους

δουλον

ινα

απο

του

And

in

[the] season

he sent

to

the

husbandmen

a bondman,

that

from

the

καρπου

του

αμπελωνος

δωσιν

αυτω

οι

δε

γεωργοι

δειραντες

fruit

of the

vineyard

they might give

to him:

but the

♦

husbandmen

having beat

αυτον		εξαπεστειλαν		κενον
him		sent [him] away		empty.

11

και

προσεθετο

πεμψαι

ετερον

δουλον

οι

δε

κακεινον

δειραντες

And

he added

to send

another

bondman;

but they

♦

also 4 him 3

having 1 beat 2

και		ατιμασαντες		εξαπεστειλαν		κενον
and		dishonoured [him]		sent [him] away		empty.

12

και

προσεθετο

πεμψαι

τριτον

οι

δε

και

τουτον

τραυματισαντες

And

he added

to send

a third;

and they

♦

also 4

him 3

having 1 wounded 2

εξεβαλον
cast [him] out.

13

ειπεν

δε

ο

κυριος

του

αμπελωνος

τι

ποιησω

πεμψω

τον

υιον

And said

♦

the

lord

of the

vineyard,

What

shall I do?

I will send

my son

♦

μου

τον

αγαπητον

ισως

τουτον

ιδοντες

εντραπησονται

♦

the

beloved;

perhaps

him

having seen

they will respect.

14

ιδοντες

δε

αυτον

οι

γεωργοι

διελογιζοντο

προς

εαυτους

But having seen

♦

him

the

husbandmen

reasoned

among

themselves,

λεγοντες

ουτος

εστιν

ο

κληρονομος

δευτε

αποκτεινωμεν

αυτον

ινα

saying,

This

is

the

heir;

come

let us kill

him,

that

ημων		γενηται		η		κληρονομια
ours 5		may 3 become 4		the 1		inheritance. 2

15

και

εκβαλοντες

αυτον

εξω

του

αμπελωνος

απεκτειναν

τι

ουν

And

having cast forth

him

outside

the

vineyard

they killed [him].

What

therefore

ποιησει

αυτοις

ο

κυριος

του

αμπελωνος

will do

to them

the

lord

of the

vineyard?

16

ελευσεται

και

απολεσει

τους

γεωργους

τουτους

και

δωσει

He will come

and

will destroy

these husbandmen,

♦

♦

and

will give

τον

αμπελωνα

αλλοις

ακουσαντες

δε

ειπον

μη

γενοιτο

the

vineyard

to others.

And having heard [it]

♦

they said,

Not 3

may 1 it 2 be!

17

ο

δε

εμβλεψας

αυτοις

ειπεν

τι

ουν

εστιν

το

γεγραμμενον

But he

♦

looking at

them

said,

What

then

is

that 2

has 3 been 4 written 5

τουτο

λιθον

ον

απεδοκιμασαν

οι

οικοδομουντες

ουτος

this, 1

[The] stone

which

rejected 4

they 1 that 2

build, 3

this

εγενηθη		εις		κεφαλην		γωνιας
is become		♦		head		of [the] corner?

18

πας

ο

πεσων

επ

εκεινον

τον

λιθον

συνθλασθησεται

Everyone

the

falls

on

that

♦

stone

will be broken,

εφ

ον

δ

αν

πεση

λικμησει

αυτον

but on whomsoever

♦

♦

♦

it may fall

it will grind to 2 powder 3

him. 1

19

και

εζητησαν

οι

αρχιερεις

και

οι

επ

αυτον

And

sought 7

the 1

chief 2 priests 3

and 4

the 5

scribes 6

to lay

on 2

him 3

τας

εν

αυτη

♦

hands 1

in

that hour,

♦

♦

and

they feared

the

people;

for they knew

♦

οτι

προς

αυτους

την

παραβολην

ταυτην

ειπεν

that

against

them

this parable

♦

♦

he speaks.

	20	και		παρατηρησαντες		απεστειλαν		εγκαθετους		υποκρινομενους
		And		having watched [him]		they sent		secret agents,		feigning

εαυτους

δικαιους

ειναι

ινα

επιλαβωνται

αυτου

εις

το

themselves

righteous 3

to 1 be, 2

that

they might take hold

of him

in discourse,

to

the [end]

παραδουναι

αυτον

τη

αρχη

και

τη

εξουσια

του

ηγεμονος

to deliver up

him

to the

power

and

to the

authority

of the

governor.

21

και

επηρωτησαν

αυτον

λεγοντες

διδασκαλε

οιδαμεν

οτι

ορθως

And

they questioned

him,

saying,

Teacher,

we know

that

rightly

λεγεις

και

διδασκεις

και

ου

λαμβανεις

προσωπον

αλλ

επ

thou sayest

and

teachest,

[any man’s] person,

but

with

truth

the

way

of God

it is lawful

for us

to 4 Ceasar 5

tribute 3

to 1 give 2

or

not?

23

κατανοησας

δε

αυτων

την

πανουργιαν

ειπεν

προς

αυτους

τι

με

But perceiving

♦

their

♦

craftiness

he said

to

them,

Why

me

πειραζετε
do ye tempt?

24

επιδειξατε

μοι

δηναριον

τινος

εχει

εικονα

και

επιγραφην

Shew

me

a denarius:

whose

has 4 it 5

image 1

and 2

inscription? 3

αποκριθεντες		δε		ειπον		καισαρος
And answering		♦		they said,		Ceasar’s.

25

ο

δε

ειπεν

αυτοις

αποδοτε

τοινυν

And he

♦

said

to them,

Render

therefore

the things

of Ceasar

to Ceasar,

and

τα		του		θεου		τω		θεω
the things		♦		of God		♦		to God.

26

και

ουκ

Ad

they were not able

to take hold

of his speech

♦

before

και

θαυμασαντες

επι

τη

αποκρισει

αυτου

εσιγησαν

the

people;

and

wondering

at

his answer

♦

♦

they were silent.

27

προσελθοντες

And having come to [him]

some

of the

Sadducees,

who

deny
