Lettera ai Galati - האיגרת אל הגלטים 12

STUTTGARTENSIA-DELITZSCH	NEW AMERICAN BIBLE
1 וַיָּחֶל לְדַבֵּר אֲלֵיהֶם בִּמְשָׁלִים לֵאמֹר אִישׁ נָטַע כֶּרֶם וַיַּעַשׂ גָּדֵר סְבִיבוֹתָיו וַיַּחְצֹב יֶקֶב וַיִּבֶן מִגְדָּל וַיִּתְּנֵהוּ אֶל־כֹּרְמִים וַיֵּלֶךְ לְמֶרְחַקִּים	1 He began to speak to them in parables. "A man planted a vineyard, put a hedge around it, dug a wine press, and built a tower. Then he leased it to tenant farmers and left on a journey.
2 וְלַמּוֹעֵד שָׁלַח אֶל־הַכֹּרְמִים עָבֶד לָקַחַת מֵאֵת הַכֹּרְמִים מִפְּרִי הַכָּרֶם	2 At the proper time he sent a servant to the tenants to obtain from them some of the produce of the vineyard.
3 וַיַּחֲזִיקוּ בוֹ וַיַּכֻּהוּ וַיְשַׁלְּחֻהוּ רֵיקָם	3 But they seized him, beat him, and sent him away empty-handed.
4 וַיֹּסֶף לִשְׁלֹחַ אֲלֵיהֶם עֶבֶד אַחֵר וְאֹתוֹ סָקְלוּ בָאֲבָנִים וּמָחֲצוּ רֹאשׁוֹ וַיְשַׁלְּחֻהוּ נִכְלָם	4 Again he sent them another servant. And that one they beat over the head and treated shamefully.
5 וַיֹּסֶף וַיִּשְׁלַח אַחֵר וְגַם־אֹתוֹ הָרָגוּ וְכֵן עָשֹוּ בְּרַבִּים אֲחֵרִים מֵהֶם הִכּוּ וּמֵהֶם הָרָגוּ	5 He sent yet another whom they killed. So, too, many others; some they beat, others they killed.
6 וַיְהִי־לוֹ עוֹד בֵּן יָחִיד אֲשֶׁר אֲהֵבוֹ וַיִּשְׁלַח גַּם־אֹתוֹ אֲלֵיהֶם בָּאַחֲרֹנָה לֵאמֹר מִפְּנֵי בְנִי יָגוּרוּ	6 He had one other to send, a beloved son. He sent him to them last of all, thinking, 'They will respect my son.'
7 וְהַכֹּרְמִים הָהֵם אָמְרוּ אִישׁ אֶל־רֵעֵהוּ הִנֵּה־זֶה הוּא הַיּוֹרֵשׁ לְכוּ וְנַהַרְגֵהוּ וְלָנוּ תִּהְיֶה הַיְרֻשָּׁה	7 But those tenants said to one another, 'This is the heir. Come, let us kill him, and the inheritance will be ours.'
8 וַיַּחֲזִיקוּ בוֹ וַיַּהַרְגוּ אוֹתוֹ וַיַּשְׁלִיכֻהוּ אֶל־מִחוּץ לַכָּרֶם	8 So they seized him and killed him, and threw him out of the vineyard.
9 וְעַתָּה מַה־יַּעֲשֶׂה בַּעַל הַכָּרֶם יָבוֹא וִיאַבֵּד אֶת־הַכֹּרְמִים הָהֵם וְיִתֵּן אֶת־הַכֶּרֶם לַאֲחֵרִים	9 What (then) will the owner of the vineyard do? He will come, put the tenants to death, and give the vineyard to others.
10 הֲלֹא קְרָאתֶם אֶת־הַכָּתוּב הַזֶּה אֶבֶן מָאֲסוּ הַבּוֹנִים הָיְתָה לְרֹאשׁ פִּנָּה	10 Have you not read this scripture passage: 'The stone that the builders rejected has become the cornerstone;
11 מֵאֵת יְהוָֹה הָיְתָה זֹּאת הִיא נִפְלָאת בְּעֵינֵינוּ	11 by the Lord has this been done, and it is wonderful in our eyes'?"
12 וַיְבַקְשׁוּ לְתָפְשׂוֹ וַיִּירְאוּ מִפְּנֵי הָעָם יַעַן אֲשֶׁר־הֵבִינוּ כִּי עֲלֵיהֶם דִּבֶּר אֶת־הַמָּשָׁל הַזֶּה וַיַּעַזְבֻהוּ וַיֵּלְכוּ לָהֶם	12 They were seeking to arrest him, but they feared the crowd, for they realized that he had addressed the parable to them. So they left him and went away.
13 וַיִּשְׁלְחוּ אֵלָיו אֲנָשִׁים מִן־הַפְּרוּשִׁים וּמִן־הַהוֹרְדוֹסִיִּים לִלְכֹּד אֹתוֹ בִּדְבָרוֹ	13 They sent some Pharisees and Herodians to him to ensnare him in his speech.
14 וַיָּבֹאוּ וַיֹּאמְרוּ אֵלָיו רַבִּי יָדַעְנוּ כִּי־אִישׁ אֱמֶת אַתָּה וְלֹא־תָגוּר מִפְּנֵי אִישׁ כִּי לֹא תַכִּיר פָּנִים כִּי אִם־בֶּאֱמֶת מוֹרֶה אַתָּה אֶת־דֶּרֶךְ הָאֱלֹהִים הֲנָכוֹן לָתֵת מַס אֶל־הַקֵּיסַר אִם־לֹא נִתֵּן	14 They came and said to him, "Teacher, we know that you are a truthful man and that you are not concerned with anyone's opinion. You do not regard a person's status but teach the way of God in accordance with the truth. Is it lawful to pay the census tax to Caesar or not? Should we pay or should we not pay?"
15 וְהוּא יָדַע אֶת־חֲנֻפָּתָם וַיֹּאמֶר אֲלֵיהֶם מַה־תְּנַסּוּנִי הָבִיאוּ אֵלַי דִּינַר וְאֶרְאֶה	15 Knowing their hypocrisy he said to them, "Why are you testing me? Bring me a denarius to look at."
16 וַיָּבִיאוּ וַיֹּאמֶר אֲלֵיהֶם שֶׁל־מִי הַדְּמוּת הַזֹּאת וְהַכָּתוּב אֲשֶׁר עָלָיו וַיֹּאמְרוּ אֵלָיו שֶׁל־הַקֵּיסָר	16 They brought one to him and he said to them, "Whose image and inscription is this?" They replied to him, "Caesar's."
17 וַיֹּאמֶר יֵשׁוּעַ אֲלֵיהֶם אֵת אֲשֶׁר לַקֵּיסַר תְּנוּ לַקֵּיסַר וְאֵת אֲשֶׁר לֵאלֹהִים תְּנוּ לֵאלֹהִים וַיִּתְמְהוּ עָלָיו	17 So Jesus said to them, "Repay to Caesar what belongs to Caesar and to God what belongs to God.' They were utterly amazed at him.
18 וַיָּבֹאוּ אֵלָיו מִן־הַצַּדּוּקִים הָאֹמְרִים כִּי־אֵין תְּחִיָּה לַמֵּתִים וַיִּשְׁאָלֻהוּ לֵאמֹר	18 Some Sadducees, who say there is no resurrection, came to him and put this question to him,
19 רַבִּי כָּתַב לָנוּ משֶׁה כִּי יָמוּת אֲחִי־אִישׁ וְעָזַב אִשָּׁה וּבָנִים אֵין לוֹ יְיַבֵּם אָחִיו אֶת־אִשְׁתּוֹ וְיָקֵם זֶרַע לְאָחִיו	19 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.'
20 וְהִנֵּה שִׁבְעָה אַחִים וְהָרִאשׁוֹן לָקַח אִשָּׁה וּבְמוֹתוֹ לֹא־הִשְׁאִיר אַחֲרָיו זָרַע	20 Now there were seven brothers. The first married a woman and died, leaving no descendants.
21 וַיִּקַּח אֹתָהּ הַשֵּׁנִי וַיָּמָת וְלֹא־הִנִּיחַ זָרַע וְכֵן גַּם הַשְּׁלִישִׁי	21 So the second married her and died, leaving no descendants, and the third likewise.
22 וַיִּקָּחוּהָ כָּל־הַשִּׁבְעָה וְלֹא־הִשְׁאִירוּ אַחֲרֵיהֶם זָרַע וְאַחֲרֵי מוֹת כֻּלָּם מֵתָה גַּם הָאִשָּׁה	22 And the seven left no descendants. Last of all the woman also died.
23 וְעַתָּה בִּתְחִיַּת הַמֵּתִים כְּשֶׁיָּקוּמוּ לְמִי מֵהֶם תִּהְיֶה לְאִשָּׁה כִּי לַשִּׁבְעָה הָיְתָה לְאִשָּׁה	23 At the resurrection (when they arise) whose wife will she be? For all seven had been married to her."
24 וַיֹּאמֶר יֵשׁוּעַ אֲלֵיהֶם הֲלֹא בָזֹאת אַתֶּם תֹּעִים בַּאֲשֶׁר אֵינְכֶם יוֹדְעִים גַּם אֶת־הַכְּתוּבִים גַּם אֶת־גְּבוּרַת הָאֱלֹהִים	24 Jesus said to them, "Are you not misled because you do not know the scriptures or the power of God?
25 כִּי בְּעֵת קוּמָם מִן־הַמֵּתִים הָאֲנָשִׁים לֹא יִשְׂאוּ נָשִׁים וְלֹא תִנָּשֶׂאנָה אַךְ יִהְיוּ כְּמַלְאֲכֵי הַשָּׁמָיִם	25 When they rise from the dead, they neither marry nor are given in marriage, but they are like the angels in heaven.
26 וְעַל־דְּבַר הַמֵּתִים כִּי־קוֹם יָקוּמוּ הֲלֹא קְרָאתֶם בְּסֵפֶר משֶׁה אֵת אֲשֶׁר־דִּבֶּר אֵלָיו הָאֱלֹהִים בַּסְּנֶה לֵאמֹר אָנֹכִי אֱלֹהֵי אַבְרָהָם וֵאלֹהֵי יִצְחָק וֵאלֹהֵי יַעֲקֹב	26 As for the dead being raised, have you not read in the Book of Moses, in the passage about the bush, how God told him, 'I am the God of Abraham, (the) God of Isaac, and (the) God of Jacob'?
27 הָאֱלֹהִים אֵינֶנּוּ אֱלֹהֵי הַמֵּתִים כִּי אִם־אֱלֹהֵי הַחַיִּים לָכֵן הִרְבֵּיתֶם לִתְעוֹת	27 He is not God of the dead but of the living. You are greatly misled."
28 וְאֶחָד מִן־הַסּוֹפְרִים שָׁמַע אֹתָם מִתְוַכְּחִים וַיִּקְרַב אֲלֵיהֶם וַיַּרְא כִּי הֵיטֵב הֱשִׁיבָם וַיִּשְׁאָלֵהוּ מַה־הִיא הָרִאשֹׁנָה לְכָל־הַמִּצְוֺת	28 One of the scribes, when he came forward and heard them disputing and saw how well he had answered them, asked him, "Which is the first of all the commandments?"
29 וַיַּעַן יֵשׁוּעַ וַיְדַבֵּר אֵלָיו הָרִאשֹׁנָה לְכָל־הַמִּצְוֺת הִיא שְׁמַע יִשְׂרָאֵל יְהוָֹה אֱלֹהֵינוּ יְהוָֹה אֶחָד	29 Jesus replied, "The first is this: 'Hear, O Israel! The Lord our God is Lord alone!
30 וְאָהַבְתָּ אֵת יְהוָֹה אֱלֹהֶיךָ בְּכָל־לְבָבְךָ וּבְכָל־נַפְשְׁךָ וּבְכָל־מַדָּעֲךָ וּבְכָל־מְאֹדֶךָ זֹאת הִיא הַמִּצְוָה הָרִאשֹׁנָה	30 You shall love the Lord your God with all your heart, with all your soul, with all your mind, and with all your strength.'
31 וְהַשֵּׁנִית הַדֹּמָה לָהּ הִיא וְאָהַבְתָּ לְרֵעֲךָ כָּמוֹךָ וְאֵין מִצְוָה גְּדוֹלָה מֵאֵלֶּה	31 The second is this: 'You shall love your neighbor as yourself.' There is no other commandment greater than these."
32 וַיֹּאמֶר אֵלָיו הַסּוֹפֵר אָמְנָם רַבִּי יָפֶה דִבַּרְתָּ כִּי אֱלֹהִים אֶחָד הוּא וְאֵין עוֹד מִלְּבַדּוֹ	32 The scribe said to him, "Well said, teacher. You are right in saying, 'He is One and there is no other than he.'
33 וּלְאַהֲבָה אֹתוֹ בְּכָל־לֵבָב וּבְכָל־מַדָּע וּבְכָל־נֶפֶשׁ וּבְכָל־מְאֹד וּלְאַהֲבָה אֶת־הָרֵעַ כְּנַפְשׁוֹ גְּדוֹלָה הִיא מִכָּל־עֹלוֹת וּזְבָחִים	33 And 'to love him with all your heart, with all your understanding, with all your strength, and to love your neighbor as yourself' is worth more than all burnt offerings and sacrifices."
34 וַיַּרְא יֵשׁוּעַ כִּי־עָנָה בְדַעַת וַיֹּאמֶר אֵלָיו לֹא־רָחוֹק אַתָּה מִמַּלְכוּת הָאֱלֹהִים וְאִישׁ לֹא־עָרַב עוֹד אֶת־לִבּוֹ לִשְׁאֹל אוֹתוֹ שְׁאֵלָה	34 And when Jesus saw that (he) answered with understanding, he said to him, "You are not far from the kingdom of God." And no one dared to ask him any more questions.
35 וַיַּעַן יֵשׁוּעַ בְּלַמְּדוֹ בַמִּקְדָּשׁ וַיֹּאמַר אֵיךְ יֹאמְרוּ הַסּוֹפְרִים כִּי הַמָּשִׁיחַ הוּא בֶן־דָּוִד	35 As Jesus was teaching in the temple area he said, "How do the scribes claim that the Messiah is the son of David?
36 וְהוּא דָוִד אָמַר בְּרוּחַ הַקֹּדֶשׁ נְאֻם יְהוָֹה לַאדֹנִי שֵׁב לִימִינִי עַד־אָשִׁית אֹיְבֶיךָ הֲדֹם לְרַגְלֶיךָ	36 David himself, inspired by the holy Spirit, said: 'The Lord said to my lord, "Sit at my right hand until I place your enemies under your feet."'
37 הִנֵּה־דָוִד בְּעַצְמוֹ קָרָא־לוֹ אָדוֹן וְאֵיךְ הוּא בְנוֹ וַיֶּאֱהַב רֹב הָעָם לִשְׁמֹעַ אֹתוֹ	37 David himself calls him 'lord'; so how is he his son?" (The) great crowd heard this with delight.
38 וַיֹּאמֶר אֲלֵיהֶם בְּלַמֵּד אֹתָם הִשָּׁמְרוּ מִן־הַסּוֹפְרִים הָאֹהֲבִים לְהִתְהַלֵּךְ עֲטוּפֵי טַלִּית וְאֶת־שְׁאֵלוֹת שְׁלוֹמָם בַּשְּׁוָקִים	38 In the course of his teaching he said, "Beware of the scribes, who like to go around in long robes and accept greetings in the marketplaces,
39 וְאֶת־מוֹשְׁבֵי הָרֹאשׁ בְּבָתֵּי כְנֵסִיּוֹת וְאֶת־הֲסִבּוֹת הָרֹאשׁ בַּסְּעוּדוֹת	39 seats of honor in synagogues, and places of honor at banquets.
40 הַבֹּלְעִים אֶת־בָּתֵּי הָאַלְמָנוֹת וּמַאֲרִיכִים בַּתְּפִלָּה לְמַרְאֵה עֵינָיִם הֵמָּה מִשְׁפָּט עַל־יֶתֶר יִקָּחוּ	40 They devour the houses of widows and, as a pretext, recite lengthy prayers. They will receive a very severe condemnation."
41 וְיֵשׁוּעַ יָשַׁב מִמּוּל אֲרוֹן הָאוֹצָר וְהוּא רֹאֶה אֶת־הָעָם מַשְׁלִיכִים מָעוֹת לַאֲרוֹן הָאוֹצָר וַעֲשִׁירִים רַבִּים נָתְנוּ הַרְבֵּה	41 He sat down opposite the treasury and observed how the crowd put money into the treasury. Many rich people put in large sums.
42 וַתָּבֹא אַלְמָנָה עֲנִיָּה וַתַּשְׁלֵךְ שְׁתֵּי פְרוּטוֹת אֲשֶׁר הֵן רֶבַע אִסָּר	42 A poor widow also came and put in two small coins worth a few cents.
43 וַיִּקְרָא אֶל־תַּלְמִידָיו וַיֹּאמֶר אֲלֵיהֶם אָמֵן אֹמֵר אֲנִי לָכֶם כִּי הָאַלְמָנָה הָעֲנִיָּה הַזֹּאת נָתְנָה יוֹתֵר מִכָּל־הַנֹּתְנִים אֶל־אֲרוֹן הָאוֹצָר	43 Calling his disciples to himself, he said to them, "Amen, I say to you, this poor widow put in more than all the other contributors to the treasury.
44 כִּי כֻלָּם נָתְנוּ מִן־הָעֹדֶף שֶׁלָּהֶם וְהִיא מִמַּחְסֹרָהּ נָתְנָה כָּל־אֲשֶׁר־לָהּ אֵת כָּל־רְכוּשָׁהּ	44 For they have all contributed from their surplus wealth, but she, from her poverty, has contributed all she had, her whole livelihood."
