Luke 20

NEW AMERICAN BIBLE	GREEK BIBLE
1 One day as he was teaching the people in the temple area and proclaiming the good news, the chief priests and scribes, together with the elders, approached him	1 Και εν μια των ημερων εκεινων, ενω αυτος εδιδασκε τον λαον εν τω ιερω, και ευηγγελιζετο, ηλθον εξαιφνης οι αρχιερεις και οι γραμματεις μετα των πρεσβυτερων
2 and said to him, "Tell us, by what authority are you doing these things? Or who is the one who gave you this authority?"	2 και ειπον προς αυτον, λεγοντες? Ειπε προς ημας εν ποια εξουσια πραττεις ταυτα, η τις ειναι οστις σοι εδωκε την εξουσιαν ταυτην;
3 He said to them in reply, "I shall ask you a question. Tell me,	3 Αποκριθεις δε ειπε προς αυτους? Θελω σας ερωτησει και εγω ενα λογον, και ειπατε μοι?
4 was John's baptism of heavenly or of human origin?"	4 το βαπτισμα του Ιωαννου εξ ουρανου ητο η εξ ανθρωπων;
5 They discussed this among themselves, and said, "If we say, 'Of heavenly origin,' he will say, 'Why did you not believe him?'	5 Οι δε εσυλλογισθησαν καθ' εαυτους λεγοντες, οτι Εαν ειπωμεν, Εξ ουρανου, θελει ειπει, Δια τι λοιπον δεν επιστευσατε εις αυτον;
6 But if we say, 'Of human origin,' then all the people will stone us, for they are convinced that John was a prophet."	6 Εαν δε ειπωμεν, Εξ ανθρωπων, πας ο λαος θελει μας λιθοβολησει? επειδη ειναι πεπεισμενοι οτι ο Ιωαννης ειναι προφητης.
7 So they answered that they did not know from where it came.	7 Και απεκριθησαν οτι δεν εξευρουσι ποθεν ητο.
8 Then Jesus said to them, "Neither shall I tell you by what authority I do these things."	8 Και ο Ιησους ειπε προς αυτους? Ουδε εγω σας λεγω εν ποια εξουσια πραττω ταυτα.
9 Then he proceeded to tell the people this parable. "(A) man planted a vineyard, leased it to tenant farmers, and then went on a journey for a long time.	9 Ηρχισε δε να λεγη προς τον λαον την παραβολην ταυτην? Ανθρωπος τις εφυτευσεν αμπελωνα, και εμισθωσεν αυτον εις γεωργους, και απεδημησε πολυν καιρον.
10 At harvest time he sent a servant to the tenant farmers to receive some of the produce of the vineyard. But they beat the servant and sent him away empty-handed.	10 Και εν τω καιρω των καρπων απεστειλε προς τους γεωργους δουλον δια να δωσωσιν εις αυτον απο του καρπου του αμπελωνος? οι γεωργοι ομως δειραντες αυτον εξαπεστειλαν κενον?
11 So he proceeded to send another servant, but him also they beat and insulted and sent away empty-handed.	11 Και παλιν επεμψεν αλλον δουλον. Πλην αυτοι δειραντες και εκεινον και ατιμασαντες εξαπεστειλαν κενον.
12 Then he proceeded to send a third, but this one too they wounded and threw out.	12 Και παλιν επεμψε τριτον. Αλλ' εκεινοι και τουτον πληγωσαντες απεδιωξαν.
13 The owner of the vineyard said, 'What shall I do? I shall send my beloved son; maybe they will respect him.'	13 Ειπε δε ο κυριος του αμπελωνος? Τι να καμω; ας πεμψω τον υιον μου τον αγαπητον? ισως ιδοντες τουτον θελουσιν εντραπει.
14 But when the tenant farmers saw him they said to one another, 'This is the heir. Let us kill him that the inheritance may become ours.'	14 Πλην ιδοντες αυτον οι γεωργοι, διελογιζοντο καθ' εαυτους λεγοντες? Ουτος ειναι ο κληρονομος? ελθετε ας φονευσωμεν αυτον, δια να γεινη ημων η κληρονομια.
15 So they threw him out of the vineyard and killed him. What will the owner of the vineyard do to them?	15 Και εκβαλοντες αυτον εξω του αμπελωνος, εφονευσαν? Τι λοιπον θελει καμει εις αυτους ο κυριος του αμπελωνος;
16 He will come and put those tenant farmers to death and turn over the vineyard to others." When the people heard this, they exclaimed, "Let it not be so!"	16 Θελει ελθει και απολεσει τους γεωργους τουτους, και θελει δωσει τον αμπελωνα εις αλλους. Ακουσαντες δε ειπον? Μη γενοιτο.
17 But he looked at them and asked, "What then does this scripture passage mean: 'The stone which the builders rejected has become the cornerstone'?	17 Ο δε εμβλεψας εις αυτους ειπε? Τι λοιπον ειναι τουτο το γεγραμμενον, Ο λιθος, τον οποιον απεδοκιμασαν οι οικοδομουντες, ουτος εγεινε κεφαλη γωνιας;
18 Everyone who falls on that stone will be dashed to pieces; and it will crush anyone on whom it falls."	18 Πας οστις πεση επι τον λιθον εκεινον θελει συντριφθη? εις οντινα δε επιπεση, θελει κατασυντριψει αυτον.
19 The scribes and chief priests sought to lay their hands on him at that very hour, but they feared the people, for they knew that he had addressed this parable to them.	19 Και εζητησαν οι αρχιερεις και οι γραμματεις να βαλωσιν επ' αυτον τας χειρας εν αυτη τη ωρα, πλην εφοβηθησαν τον λαον? διοτι ηνοησαν οτι προς αυτους ειπε την παραβολην ταυτην.
20 They watched him closely and sent agents pretending to be righteous who were to trap him in speech, in order to hand him over to the authority and power of the governor.	20 Και παραφυλαξαντες απεστειλαν ενεδρευτας, υποκρινομενους οτι ειναι δικαιοι, επι σκοπω να πιασωσιν αυτον απο λογου, δια να παραδωσωσιν αυτον εις την αρχην και εις την εξουσιαν του ηγεμονος.
21 They posed this question to him, "Teacher, we know that what you say and teach is correct, and you show no partiality, but teach the way of God in accordance with the truth.	21 Και ηρωτησαν αυτον λεγοντες? Διδασκαλε, εξευρομεν οτι ορθως ομιλεις και διδασκεις και δεν βλεπεις εις προσωπον, αλλ' επ' αληθειας την οδον του Θεου διδασκεις?
22 Is it lawful for us to pay tribute to Caesar or not?"	22 ειναι συγκεχωρημενον εις ημας να δωσωμεν φορον εις τον Καισαρα η ουχι;
23 Recognizing their craftiness he said to them,	23 Εννοησας δε την πανουργιαν αυτων, ειπε προς αυτους? Τι με πειραζετε;
24 "Show me a denarius; whose image and name does it bear?" They replied, "Caesar's."	24 δειξατε μοι δηναριον? τινος εικονα εχει και επιγραφην; Και αποκριθεντες ειπον? Του Καισαρος.
25 So he said to them, "Then repay to Caesar what belongs to Caesar and to God what belongs to God."	25 Ο δε ειπε προς αυτους? Αποδοτε λοιπον τα του Καισαρος εις τον Καισαρα και τα του Θεου εις τον Θεον.
26 They were unable to trap him by something he might say before the people, and so amazed were they at his reply that they fell silent.	26 Και δεν ηδυνηθησαν να πιασωσιν αυτον απο λογου εμπροσθεν του λαου, και θαυμασαντες δια την αποκρισιν αυτου εσιωπησαν.
27 Some Sadducees, those who deny that there is a resurrection, came forward and put this question to him,	27 Προσελθοντες δε τινες των Σαδδουκαιων, οιτινες αρνουνται οτι ειναι αναστασις, ηρωτησαν αυτον,
28 saying, "Teacher, Moses wrote for us, 'If someone's brother dies leaving a wife but no child, his brother must take the wife and raise up descendants for his brother.'	28 λεγοντες? Διδασκαλε, ο Μωυσης μας εγραψεν? Εαν τινος ο αδελφος αποθανη εχων γυναικα, και ουτος αποθανη ατεκνος, να λαβη ο αδελφος αυτου την γυναικα και να εξαναστηση σπερμα εις τον αδελφον αυτου.
29 Now there were seven brothers; the first married a woman but died childless.	29 Ησαν λοιπον επτα αδελφοι? και ο πρωτος λαβων γυναικα, απεθανεν ατεκνος?
30 Then the second	30 και ελαβεν ο δευτερος την γυναικα, και ουτος απεθανεν ατεκνος?
31 and the third married her, and likewise all the seven died childless.	31 και ο τριτος ελαβεν αυτην? ωσαυτως δε και οι επτα? και δεν αφηκαν τεκνα, και απεθανον.
32 Finally the woman also died.	32 Υστερον δε παντων απεθανε και η γυνη.
33 Now at the resurrection whose wife will that woman be? For all seven had been married to her."	33 Εν τη αναστασει λοιπον τινος αυτων γινεται γυνη; διοτι και οι επτα ελαβον αυτην γυναικα.
34 Jesus said to them, "The children of this age marry and remarry;	34 Και ο Ιησους αποκριθεις ειπε προς αυτους? οι υιοι του αιωνος τουτου νυμφευουσι και νυμφευονται?
35 but those who are deemed worthy to attain to the coming age and to the resurrection of the dead neither marry nor are given in marriage.	35 οι δε καταξιωθεντες να απολαυσωσιν εκεινον τον αιωνα και την εκ νεκρων αναστασιν ουτε νυμφευουσιν ουτε νυμφευονται?
36 They can no longer die, for they are like angels; and they are the children of God because they are the ones who will rise.	36 διοτι ουτε να αποθανωσι πλεον δυνανται? επειδη ειναι ισαγγελοι και ειναι υιοι του Θεου, οντες υιοι της αναστασεως.
37 That the dead will rise even Moses made known in the passage about the bush, when he called 'Lord' the God of Abraham, the God of Isaac, and the God of Jacob;	37 Οτι δε εγειρονται οι νεκροι, και ο Μωυσης εφανερωσεν επι της βατου, οτε λεγει Κυριον τον Θεον του Αβρααμ και τον Θεον του Ισαακ και τον Θεον του Ιακωβ.
38 and he is not God of the dead, but of the living, for to him all are alive."	38 Ο δε Θεος δεν ειναι νεκρων, αλλα ζωντων? διοτι παντες ζωσι εν αυτω.
39 Some of the scribes said in reply, "Teacher, you have answered well."	39 Αποκριθεντες δε τινες των γραμματεων ειπον? Διδασκαλε, καλως ειπας.
40 And they no longer dared to ask him anything.	40 Και δεν ετολμων πλεον να ερωτωσιν αυτον ουδεν.
41 Then he said to them, "How do they claim that the Messiah is the Son of David?	41 Ειπε δε προς αυτους? Πως λεγουσι τον Χριστον οτι ειναι υιος του Δαβιδ;
42 For David himself in the Book of Psalms says: 'The Lord said to my lord, "Sit at my right hand	42 Και αυτος ο Δαβιδ λεγει εν τη βιβλω των ψαλμων? Ειπεν ο Κυριος προς τον Κυριον μου, καθου εκ δεξιων μου,
43 till I make your enemies your footstool."'	43 εωσου θεσω τους εχθρους σου υποποδιον των ποδων σου.
44 Now if David calls him 'lord,' how can he be his son?"	44 Ο Δαβιδ λοιπον ονομαζει αυτον Κυριον? και πως ειναι υιος αυτου;
45 Then, within the hearing of all the people, he said to (his) disciples,	45 Και ενω ηκουε πας ο λαος, ειπε προς τους μαθητας αυτου?
46 "Be on guard against the scribes, who like to go around in long robes and love greetings in marketplaces, seats of honor in synagogues, and places of honor at banquets.	46 Προσεχετε απο των γραμματεων, οιτινες θελουσι να περιπατωσιν εστολισμενοι και αγαπωσιν ασπασμους εν ταις αγοραις και πρωτοκαθεδριας εν ταις συναγωγαις και τους πρωτους τοπους εν τοις δειπνοις,
47 They devour the houses of widows and, as a pretext, recite lengthy prayers. They will receive a very severe condemnation."	47 οιτινες κατατρωγουσι τας οικιας των χηρων, και τουτο επι προφασει οτι καμνουσι μακρας προσευχας? ουτοι θελουσι λαβει μεγαλητεραν καταδικην.
