Mark 12

NEW JERUSALEM	GREEK BIBLE
1 He went on to speak to them in parables, 'A man planted a vineyard; he fenced it round, dug out atrough for the winepress and built a tower; then he leased it to tenants and went abroad.	1 Και ηρχισε να λεγη προς αυτους δια παραβολων? Ανθρωπος τις εφυτευσεν αμπελωνα και περιεβαλεν εις αυτον φραγμον και εσκαψεν υποληνιον και ωκοδομησε πυργον, και εμισθωσεν αυτον εις γεωργους και απεδημησε.
2 When the time came, he sent a servant to the tenants to col ect from them his share of the produce ofthe vineyard.	2 Και εν τω καιρω των καρπων απεστειλε προς τους γεωργους δουλον, δια να λαβη παρα των γεωργων απο του καρπου του αμπελωνος.
3 But they seized the man, thrashed him and sent him away empty handed.	3 Εκεινοι δε πιασαντες αυτον εδειραν και απεπεμψαν κενον.
4 Next he sent another servant to them; him they beat about the head and treated shameful y.	4 Και παλιν απεστειλε προς αυτους αλλον δουλον? και εκεινον λιθοβολησαντες, επληγωσαν την κεφαλην αυτου και απεπεμψαν ητιμωμενον.
5 And he sent another and him they kil ed; then a number of others, and they thrashed some and killedthe rest.	5 Και παλιν απεστειλεν αλλον? και εκεινον εφονευσαν, και πολλους αλλους, τους μεν εδειραν, τους δε εφονευσαν.
6 He had still someone left: his beloved son. He sent him to them last of al , thinking, "They wil respectmy son."	6 Ετι λοιπον εχων ενα υιον, αγαπητον αυτου, απεστειλε και αυτον προς αυτους εσχατον, λεγων οτι θελουσιν εντραπη τον υιον μου.
7 But those tenants said to each other, "This is the heir. Come on, let us kil him, and the inheritance wilbe ours."	7 Εκεινοι δε οι γεωργοι ειπον προς αλληλους οτι ουτος ειναι ο κληρονομος? ελθετε, ας φονευσωμεν αυτον, και θελει εισθαι ημων η κληρονομια.
8 So they seized him and killed him and threw him out of the vineyard.	8 Και πιασαντες αυτον εφονευσαν και ερριψαν εξω του αμπελωνος.
9 Now what wil the owner of the vineyard do? He wil come and make an end of the tenants and givethe vineyard to others.	9 Τι λοιπον θελει καμει ο κυριος του αμπελωνος; Θελει ελθει και απολεσει τους γεωργους και θελει δωσει τον αμπελωνα εις αλλους.
10 Have you not read this text of scripture: The stone which the builders rejected has become thecornerstone;	10 Ουδε την γραφην ταυτην δεν ανεγνωσατε, Ο λιθος, τον οποιον απεδοκιμασαν οι οικοδομουντες, ουτος εγεινε κεφαλη γωνιας?
11 this is the Lord's doing, and we marvel at it ?'	11 παρα Κυριου εγεινεν αυτη και ειναι θαυμαστη εν οφθαλμοις ημων.
12 And they would have liked to arrest him, because they realised that the parable was aimed at them,but they were afraid of the crowds. So they left him alone and went away.	12 Και εζητουν να πιασωσιν αυτον και εφοβηθησαν τον οχλον? επειδη ενοησαν οτι προς αυτους ειπε την παραβολην? και αφησαντες αυτον ανεχωρησαν.
13 Next they sent to him some Pharisees and some Herodians to catch him out in what he said.	13 Και αποστελλουσι προς αυτον τινας των Φαρισαιων και των Ηρωδιανων, δια να παγιδευσωσιν αυτον εις λογον.
14 These came and said to him, 'Master, we know that you are an honest man, that you are not afraid ofanyone, because human rank means nothing to you, and that you teach the way of God in al honesty. Is itpermissible to pay taxes to Caesar or not? Should we pay or not?'	14 Και εκεινοι ελθοντες, λεγουσι προς αυτον? Διδασκαλε, εξευρομεν οτι εισαι αληθης και δεν σε μελει περι ουδενος? διοτι δεν βλεπεις εις προσωπον ανθρωπων, αλλ' επ' αληθειας την οδον του Θεου διδασκεις. Ειναι συγκεχωρημενον να δωσωμεν δασμον εις τον Καισαρα, η ουχι; να δωσωμεν η να μη δωσωμεν;
15 Recognising their hypocrisy he said to them, 'Why are you putting me to the test? Hand me adenarius and let me see it.'	15 Ο δε γνωρισας την υποκρισιν αυτων, ειπε προς αυτους? τι με πειραζετε; φερετε μοι δηναριον δια να ιδω.
16 They handed him one and he said to them, 'Whose portrait is this? Whose title?' They said to him,'Caesar's.'	16 Και εκεινοι εφεραν. Και λεγει προς αυτους? Τινος ειναι η εικων αυτη και η επιγραφη; οι δε ειπον προς αυτον? Του Καισαρος.
17 Jesus said to them, 'Pay Caesar what belongs to Caesar -- and God what belongs to God.' And theywere amazed at him.	17 Και αποκριθεις ο Ιησους ειπε προς αυτους? Αποδοτε τα του Καισαρος εις τον Καισαρα και τα του Θεου εις τον Θεον. Και εθαυμασαν δι' αυτον.
18 Then some Sadducees -- who deny that there is a resurrection -- came to him and they put thisquestion to him,	18 Και ερχονται προς αυτον Σαδδουκαιοι, οιτινες λεγουσιν οτι δεν ειναι αναστασις, και ηρωτησαν αυτον, λεγοντες?
19 'Master, Moses prescribed for us that if a man's brother dies leaving a wife but no child, the manmust marry the widow to raise up children for his brother.	19 Διδασκαλε, ο Μωυσης μας εγραψεν οτι εαν αποθανη τινος ο αδελφος και αφηση γυναικα και τεκνα δεν αφηση, να λαβη ο αδελφος αυτου την γυναικα αυτου και να εξαναστηση σπερμα εις τον αδελφον αυτου.
20 Now there were seven brothers; the first married a wife and then died leaving no children.	20 Ησαν λοιπον επτα αδελφοι. Και ο πρωτος ελαβε γυναικα, και αποθνησκων δεν αφηκε σπερμα?
21 The second married the widow, and he too died leaving no children; with the third it was the same,	21 και ελαβεν αυτην ο δευτερος και απεθανε, και ουδε αυτος αφηκε σπερμα? και ο τριτος ωσαυτως.
22 and none of the seven left any children. Last of al the woman herself died.	22 Και ελαβον αυτην οι επτα, και δεν αφηκαν σπερμα. Τελευταια παντων απεθανε και η γυνη.
23 Now at the resurrection, when they rise again, whose wife wil she be, since she had been married toal seven?'	23 Εν τη αναστασει λοιπον, οταν αναστηθωσι, τινος αυτων θελει εισθαι γυνη; διοτι και οι επτα ελαβον αυτην γυναικα.
24 Jesus said to them, 'Surely the reason why you are wrong is that you understand neither thescriptures nor the power of God.	24 Και αποκριθεις ο Ιησους, ειπε προς αυτους? Δεν πλανασθε δια τουτο, μη γνωριζοντες τας γραφας μηδε την δυναμιν του Θεου;
25 For when they rise from the dead, men and women do not marry; no, they are like the angels inheaven.	25 Διοτι οταν αναστηθωσιν εκ νεκρων ουτε νυμφευουσιν ουτε νυμφευονται, αλλ' ειναι ως αγγελοι οι εν τοις ουρανοις.
26 Now about the dead rising again, have you never read in the Book of Moses, in the passage aboutthe bush, how God spoke to him and said: I am the God of Abraham, the God of Isaac and the God of Jacob?	26 Περι δε των νεκρων οτι ανιστανται, δεν ανεγνωσατε εν τη βιβλω του Μωυσεως, πως ειπε προς αυτον ο Θεος επι της βατου, λεγων, Εγω ειμαι ο Θεος του Αβρααμ και ο Θεος του Ισαακ και ο Θεος του Ιακωβ;
27 He is God, not of the dead, but of the living. You are very much mistaken.'	27 Δεν ειναι ο Θεος νεκρων, αλλα Θεος ζωντων? σεις λοιπον πλανασθε πολυ.
28 One of the scribes who had listened to them debating appreciated that Jesus had given a goodanswer and put a further question to him, 'Which is the first of al the commandments?'	28 Και προσελθων εις των γραμματεων, οστις ηκουσεν αυτους συζητουντας, γνωριζων οτι καλως απεκριθη προς αυτους, ηρωτησεν αυτον? Ποια εντολη ειναι πρωτη πασων;
29 Jesus replied, 'This is the first: Listen, Israel, the Lord our God is the one, only Lord,	29 Ο δε Ιησους απεκριθη προς αυτον οτι πρωτη πασων των εντολων ειναι? Ακουε Ισραηλ, Κυριος ο Θεος ημων ειναι εις Κυριος?
30 and you must love the Lord your God with all your heart, with all your soul, with al your mind and withal your strength.	30 και θελεις αγαπα 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 δυναμεως σου? αυτη ειναι η πρωτη εντολη.
31 The second is this: You must love your neighbour as yourself. There is no commandment greaterthan these.'	31 Και δευτερα ομοια, αυτη? Θελεις αγαπα τον πλησιον σου ως σεαυτον. Μεγαλητερα τουτων αλλη εντολη δεν ειναι.
32 The scribe said to him, 'Well spoken, Master; what you have said is true, that he is one and there isno other.	32 Και ειπε προς αυτον ο γραμματευς? Καλως, Διδασκαλε, αληθως ειπας οτι ειναι εις Θεος, και δεν ειναι αλλος εκτος αυτου?
33 To love him with al your heart, with al your understanding and strength, and to love your neighbouras yourself, this is far more important than any burnt offering or sacrifice.'	33 και το να αγαπα τις αυτον εξ ολης της καρδιας και εξ ολης της συνεσεως και εξ ολης της ψυχης και εξ ολης της δυναμεως, και το να αγαπα τον πλησιον ως εαυτον, ειναι πλειοτερον παντων των ολοκαυτωματων και των θυσιων.
34 Jesus, seeing how wisely he had spoken, said, 'You are not far from the kingdom of God.' And afterthat no one dared to question him any more.	34 Και ο Ιησους, ιδων αυτον οτι φρονιμως απεκριθη, ειπε προς αυτον? Δεν εισαι μακραν απο της βασιλειας του Θεου. Και ουδεις πλεον ετολμα να ερωτηση αυτον.
35 While teaching in the Temple, Jesus said, 'How can the scribes maintain that the Christ is the son ofDavid?	35 Και αποκριθεις ο Ιησους, ελεγε διδασκων εν τω ιερω? Πως λεγουσιν οι γραμματεις οτι ο Χριστος ειναι υιος του Δαβιδ;
36 David himself, moved by the Holy Spirit, said: The Lord declared to my Lord, take your seat at myright hand til I have made your enemies your footstool.	36 Διοτι αυτος ο Δαβιδ ειπε δια του Πνευματος του Αγιου? Ειπεν ο Κυριος προς τον Κυριον μου, Καθου εκ δεξιων μου, εωσου θεσω τους εχθρους σου υποποδιον των ποδων σου.
37 David himself calls him Lord; in what way then can he be his son?' And the great crowd listened tohim with delight.	37 Αυτος λοιπον ο Δαβιδ λεγει αυτον Κυριον? και ποθεν ειναι υιος αυτου; Και ο πολυς οχλος ηκουεν αυτον ευχαριστως.
38 In his teaching he said, 'Beware of the scribes who like to walk about in long robes, to be greetedrespectfully in the market squares,	38 Και ελεγε προς αυτους εν τη διδαχη αυτου? Προσεχετε απο των γραμματεων, οιτινες θελουσι να περιπατωσιν εστολισμενοι και αγαπωσι τους ασπασμους εν ταις αγοραις
39 to take the front seats in the synagogues and the places of honour at banquets;	39 και πρωτοκαθεδριας εν ταις συναγωγαις και τους πρωτους τοπους εν τοις δειπνοις.
40 these are the men who devour the property of widows and for show offer long prayers. The moresevere wil be the sentence they receive.'	40 Οιτινες κατατρωγουσι τας οικιας των χηρων, και τουτο επι προφασει οτι καμνουσι μακρας προσευχας? ουτοι θελουσι λαβει μεγαλητεραν καταδικην.
41 He sat down opposite the treasury and watched the people putting money into the treasury, andmany of the rich put in a great deal.	41 Και καθησας ο Ιησους απεναντι του γαζοφυλακιου, εθεωρει πως ο οχλος εβαλλε χαλκον εις το γαζοφυλακιον. Και πολλοι πλουσιοι εβαλλον πολλα?
42 A poor widow came and put in two smal coins, the equivalent of a penny.	42 και ελθουσα μια χηρα πτωχη εβαλε δυο λεπτα, τουτεστιν, ενα κοδραντην.
43 Then he cal ed his disciples and said to them, 'In truth I tell you, this poor widow has put more in thanal who have contributed to the treasury;	43 Και προσκαλεσας τους μαθητας αυτου, λεγει προς αυτους? Αληθως σας λεγω οτι η χηρα αυτη η πτωχη εβαλε περισσοτερον παντων, οσοι εβαλον εις το γαζοφυλακιον?
44 for they have al put in money they could spare, but she in her poverty has put in everything shepossessed, all she had to live on.'	44 διοτι παντες εκ του περισσευοντος εις αυτους εβαλον? αυτη ομως εκ του υστερηματος αυτης εβαλε παντα οσα ειχεν, ολην την περιουσιαν αυτης.
