Mark 12

NEW AMERICAN BIBLE	VULGATA
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.	1 Et cœpit illis in parabolis loqui : Vineam pastinavit homo, et circumdedit sepem, et fodit lacum, et ædificavit turrim, et locavit eam agricolis, et peregre profectus est.
2 At the proper time he sent a servant to the tenants to obtain from them some of the produce of the vineyard.	2 Et misit ad agricolas in tempore servum ut ab agricolis acciperet de fructu vineæ.
3 But they seized him, beat him, and sent him away empty-handed.	3 Qui apprehensum eum ceciderunt, et dimiserunt vacuum.
4 Again he sent them another servant. And that one they beat over the head and treated shamefully.	4 Et iterum misit ad illos alium servum : et illum in capite vulneraverunt, et contumeliis affecerunt.
5 He sent yet another whom they killed. So, too, many others; some they beat, others they killed.	5 Et rursum alium misit, et illum occiderunt : et plures alios : quosdam cædentes, alios vero occidentes.
6 He had one other to send, a beloved son. He sent him to them last of all, thinking, 'They will respect my son.'	6 Adhuc ergo unum habens filium carissimum, et illum misit ad eos novissimum, dicens : Quia reverebuntur filium meum.
7 But those tenants said to one another, 'This is the heir. Come, let us kill him, and the inheritance will be ours.'	7 Coloni autem dixerunt ad invicem : Hic est hæres : venite, occidamus eum : et nostra erit hæreditas.
8 So they seized him and killed him, and threw him out of the vineyard.	8 Et apprehendentes eum, occiderunt : et ejecerunt extra vineam.
9 What (then) will the owner of the vineyard do? He will come, put the tenants to death, and give the vineyard to others.	9 Quid ergo faciet dominus vineæ ? Veniet, et perdet colonos, et dabit vineam aliis.
10 Have you not read this scripture passage: 'The stone that the builders rejected has become the cornerstone;	10 Nec scripturam hanc legistis : Lapidem quem reprobaverunt ædificantes, hic factus est in caput anguli :
11 by the Lord has this been done, and it is wonderful in our eyes'?"	11 a Domino factum est istud, et est mirabile in oculis nostris ?
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.	12 Et quærebant eum tenere : et timuerunt turbam : cognoverunt enim quoniam ad eos parabolam hanc dixerit. Et relicto eo abierunt.
13 They sent some Pharisees and Herodians to him to ensnare him in his speech.	13 Et mittunt ad eum quosdam ex pharisæis, et herodianis, ut eum caperent in verbo.
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?"	14 Qui venientes dicunt ei : Magister, scimus quia verax es, et non curas quemquam : nec enim vides in faciem hominum, sed in veritate viam Dei doces. Licet dari tributum Cæsari, an non dabimus ?
15 Knowing their hypocrisy he said to them, "Why are you testing me? Bring me a denarius to look at."	15 Qui sciens versutiam illorum, ait illis : Quid me tentatis ? afferte mihi denarium ut videam.
16 They brought one to him and he said to them, "Whose image and inscription is this?" They replied to him, "Caesar's."	16 At illi attulerunt ei. Et ait illis : Cujus est imago hæc, et inscriptio ? Dicunt ei : Cæsaris.
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.	17 Respondens autem Jesus dixit illis : Reddite igitur quæ sunt Cæsaris, Cæsari : et quæ sunt Dei, Deo. Et mirabantur super eo.
18 Some Sadducees, who say there is no resurrection, came to him and put this question to him,	18 Et venerunt ad eum sadducæi, qui dicunt resurrectionem non esse : et interrogabant eum, dicentes :
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.'	19 Magister, Moyses nobis scripsit, ut si cujus frater mortuus fuerit, et dimiserit uxorem, et filios non reliquerit, accipiat frater ejus uxorem ipsius, et resuscitet semen fratri suo.
20 Now there were seven brothers. The first married a woman and died, leaving no descendants.	20 Septem ergo fratres erant : et primus accepit uxorem, et mortuus est non relicto semine.
21 So the second married her and died, leaving no descendants, and the third likewise.	21 Et secundus accepit eam, et mortuus est : et nec iste reliquit semen. Et tertius similiter.
22 And the seven left no descendants. Last of all the woman also died.	22 Et acceperunt eam similiter septem : et non reliquerunt semen. Novissima omnium defuncta est et mulier.
23 At the resurrection (when they arise) whose wife will she be? For all seven had been married to her."	23 In resurrectione ergo cum resurrexerint, cujus de his erit uxor ? septem enim habuerunt eam uxorem.
24 Jesus said to them, "Are you not misled because you do not know the scriptures or the power of God?	24 Et respondens Jesus, ait illis : Nonne ideo erratis, non scientes Scripturas, neque virtutem Dei ?
25 When they rise from the dead, they neither marry nor are given in marriage, but they are like the angels in heaven.	25 Cum enim a mortuis resurrexerint, neque nubent, neque nubentur, sed sunt sicut angeli in cælis.
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'?	26 De mortuis autem quod resurgant, non legistis in libro Moysi, super rubum, quomodo dixerit illi Deus, inquiens : Ego sum Deus Abraham, et Deus Isaac, et Deus Jacob ?
27 He is not God of the dead but of the living. You are greatly misled."	27 Non est Deus mortuorum, sed vivorum. Vos ergo multum erratis.
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?"	28 Et accessit unus de scribis, qui audierat illos conquirentes, et videns quoniam bene illis responderit, interrogavit eum quod esset primum omnium mandatum.
29 Jesus replied, "The first is this: 'Hear, O Israel! The Lord our God is Lord alone!	29 Jesus autem respondit ei : Quia primum omnium mandatum est : Audi Israël, Dominus Deus tuus, Deus unus est :
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.'	30 et diliges Dominum Deum tuum ex toto corde tuo, et ex tota anima tua, et ex tota mente tua, et ex tota virtute tua. Hoc est primum mandatum.
31 The second is this: 'You shall love your neighbor as yourself.' There is no other commandment greater than these."	31 Secundum autem simile est illi : Diliges proximum tuum tamquam teipsum. Majus horum aliud mandatum non est.
32 The scribe said to him, "Well said, teacher. You are right in saying, 'He is One and there is no other than he.'	32 Et ait illi scriba : Bene, Magister, in veritate dixisti, quia unus est Deus, et non est alius præter eum.
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."	33 Et ut diligatur ex toto corde, et ex toto intellectu, et ex tota anima, et ex tota fortitudine, et diligere proximum tamquam seipsum, majus est omnibus holocautomatibus, et sacrificiis.
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.	34 Jesus autem videns quod sapienter respondisset, dixit illi : Non es longe a regno Dei. Et nemo jam audebat eum interrogare.
35 As Jesus was teaching in the temple area he said, "How do the scribes claim that the Messiah is the son of David?	35 Et respondens Jesus dicebat, docens in templo : Quomodo dicunt scribæ Christum filium esse David ?
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."'	36 Ipse enim David dicit in Spiritu Sancto : Dixit Dominus Domino meo : Sede a dextris meis, donec ponam inimicos tuos scabellum pedum tuorum.
37 David himself calls him 'lord'; so how is he his son?" (The) great crowd heard this with delight.	37 Ipse ergo David dicit eum Dominum, et unde est filius ejus ? Et multa turba eum libenter audivit.
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,	38 Et dicebat eis in doctrina sua : Cavete a scribis, qui volunt in stolis ambulare, et salutari in foro,
39 seats of honor in synagogues, and places of honor at banquets.	39 et in primis cathedris sedere in synagogis, et primos discubitus in cœnis :
40 They devour the houses of widows and, as a pretext, recite lengthy prayers. They will receive a very severe condemnation."	40 qui devorant domos viduarum sub obtentu prolixæ orationis : hi accipient prolixius judicium.
41 He sat down opposite the treasury and observed how the crowd put money into the treasury. Many rich people put in large sums.	41 Et sedens Jesus contra gazophylacium, aspiciebat quomodo turba jactaret æs in gazophylacium, et multi divites jactabant multa.
42 A poor widow also came and put in two small coins worth a few cents.	42 Cum venisset autem vidua una pauper, misit duo minuta, quod est quadrans,
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.	43 et convocans discipulos suos, ait illis : Amen dico vobis, quoniam vidua hæc pauper plus omnibus misit, qui miserunt in gazophylacium.
44 For they have all contributed from their surplus wealth, but she, from her poverty, has contributed all she had, her whole livelihood."	44 Omnes enim ex eo, quod abundabat illis, miserunt : hæc vero de penuria sua omnia quæ habuit misit totum victum suum.
