Seconda lettera ai Corinzi (מכתב שני לקורינתים) 22

STUTTGARTENSIA-DELITZSCH	DOUAI-RHEIMS
1 וַיַּעַן יֵשׁוּעַ וַיֹּסֵף דַּבֵּר בִּמְשָׁלִים אֲלֵיהֶם לֵאמֹר	1 And Jesus answering, spoke again in parables to them, saying:
2 דּוֹמָה מַלְכוּת הַשָּׁמַיִם לְמֶלֶךְ בָּשָׂר וָדָם אֲשֶׁר־עָשָׂה חֲתֻנָּה לִבְנוֹ	2 The kingdom of heaven is likened to a king, who made a marriage for his son.
3 וַיִּשְׁלַח אֶת־עֲבָדָיו לִקְרֹא הַקְּרוּאִים אֶל־הַחֲתֻנָּה וְלֹא אָבוּ לָבוֹא	3 And he sent his servants, to call them that were invited to the marriage; and they would not come.
4 וַיֹּסֶף שְׁלֹחַ עֲבָדִים אֲחֵרִים לֵאמֹר אִמְרוּ אֶל־הַקְּרוּאִים הִנֵּה עָרַכְתִּי אֶת־סְעוּדָתִי שְׁוָרַי וּמְרִיאַי טְבוּחִים וְהַכֹּל מוּכָן בֹּאוּ אֶל־הַחֲתֻנָּה	4 Again he sent other servants, saying: Tell them that were invited, Behold, I have prepared my dinner; my beeves and fatlings are killed, and all things are ready: come ye to the marriage.
5 וְהֵם לֹא־שָׁתוּ לִבָּם לָזֹאת וַיֵּלְכוּ לָהֶם זֶה אֶל־שָׂדֵהוּ וְזֶה אֶל־מִסְחָרוֹ	5 But they neglected, and went their own ways, one to his farm, and another to his merchandise.
6 וְהַנִּשְׁאָרִים תָּפְשֹוּ אֶת־עֲבָדָיו וַיִּתְעַלְּלוּ בָם וַיַּהַרְגוּם	6 And the rest laid hands on his servants, and having treated them contumeliously, put them to death.
7 וַיִּקְצֹף הַמֶּלֶךְ וַיִּשְׁלַח צִבְאוֹתָיו וַיְאַבֵּד אֶת־הַמְרַצְּחִים הָהֵם וְאֶת־עִירָם שָׂרַף בָּאֵשׁ	7 But when the king had heard of it, he was angry, and sending his armies, he destroyed those murderers, and burnt their city.
8 אָז אָמַר אֶל־עֲבָדָיו הֵן הַחֲתֻנָּה מוּכָנָה וְהַקְּרוּאִים לֹא הָיוּ רְאוּיִם לָהּ	8 Then he saith to his servants: The marriage indeed is ready; but they that were invited were not worthy.
9 לָכֵן לְכוּ־נָא אֶל־רָאשֵׁי הַדְּרָכִים וְכָל־אִישׁ אֲשֶׁר תִּמְצְאוּ קִרְאוּ אֹתוֹ אֶל־הַחֲתֻנָּה	9 Go ye therefore into the highways; and as many as you shall find, call to the marriage.
10 וַיֵּצְאוּ הָעֲבָדִים הָהֵם אֶל־הַדְּרָכִים וַיַּאַסְפוּ אֶת־כֹּל אֲשֶׁר מָצָאוּ גַּם־רָעִים גַּם־טוֹבִים וַיִּמָּלֵא בֵית־הַחֲתֻנָּה מְסֻבִּים	10 And his servants going forth into the ways, gathered together all that they found, both bad and good: and the marriage was filled with guests.
11 וַיְהִי כְּבוֹא הַמֶּלֶךְ לִרְאוֹת אֶת־הַמְסֻבִּים וַיַּרְא בָּהֶם אִישׁ וְלֹא הָיָה לָבוּשׁ בִּגְדֵי חֲתֻנָּה	11 And the king went in to see the guests: and he saw there a man who had not on a wedding garment.
12 וַיֹּאמֶר אֵלָיו רֵעִי אֵיכָה בָאתָ הֵנָּה וְאֵין לְךָ בִּגְדֵי חֲתֻנָּה וַיֵּאָלַם	12 And he saith to him: Friend, how camest thou in hither not having a wedding garment? But he was silent.
13 וַיֹּאמֶר הַמֶּלֶךְ לַמְשָׁרְתִים אִסְרוּ יָדָיו וְרַגְלָיו וּנְשָׂאתֶם וְהִשְׁלַכְתֶּם אוֹתוֹ אֶל־הַחשֶׁךְ הַחִיצוֹן שָׁם תִּהְיֶה הַיְלָלָה וַחֲרֹק הַשִּׁנָּיִם	13 Then the king said to the waiters: Bind his hands and feet, and cast him into the exterior darkness: there shall be weeping and gnashing of teeth.
14 כִּי רַבִּים הֵם הַקְּרוּאִים וּמְעַטִּים הַנִּבְחָרִים	14 For many are called, but few are chosen.
15 וַיֵּלְכוּ הַפְּרוּשִׁים וַיִּתְיָעֲצוּ אֵיךְ יַכְשִׁילֻהוּ בְּדָבָר	15 Then the Pharisees going, consulted among themselves how to insnare him in his speech.
16 וַיִּשְׁלְחוּ אֵלָיו אֶת־תַּלְמִידֵיהֶם עִם־הַהוֹרְדוֹסִיִּים לֵאמֹר רַבִּי יָדַעְנוּ כִּי־אִישׁ אֱמֶת אַתָּה וַתּוֹרֶה בֶאֱמֶת אֶת־דֶּרֶךְ אֱלֹהִים וְלֹא תָגוּר מִפְּנֵי אִישׁ כִּי אֵינְךָ מַכִּיר פְּנֵי אָדָם	16 And they sent to him their disciples with the Herodians, saying: Master, we know that thou art a true speaker, and teachest the way of God in truth, neither carest thou for any man: for thou dost not regard the person of men.
17 לָכֵן הַגִּידָה־נָּא לָנוּ אֶת־דַּעְתֶּךָ הֲנָכוֹן לָנוּ לָתֵת־מַס אֶל־הַקֵּיסַר אִם־לֹא	17 Tell us therefore what dost thou think, is it lawful to give tribute to Caesar, or not?
18 וְיֵשׁוּעַ יָדַע אֶת־רִשְׁעָתָם וַיֹּאמַר הַחֲנֵפִים מַה־תְּנַסּוּנִי	18 But Jesus knowing their wickedness, said: Why do you tempt me, ye hypocrites?
19 הַרְאוּנִי אֶת־מַטְבֵּעַ הַמַּס וַיָּבִיאוּ לוֹ דִּינָר	19 Shew me the coin of the tribute. And they offered him a penny.
20 וַיֹּאמֶר אֲלֵיהֶם שֶׁל־מִי הַדְּיוֹקָן הַזֶּה וְהַכָּתוּב אֲשֶׁר עָלָיו	20 And Jesus saith to them: Whose image and inscription is this?
21 וַיֹּאמְרוּ אֵלָיו שֶׁל־הַקֵּיסָר וַיֹּאמֶר אֲלֵיהֶם לָכֵן תְּנוּ לַקֵּיסַר אֵת אֲשֶׁר לַקֵּיסַר וְלֵאלֹהִים אֵת אֲשֶׁר לֵאלֹהִים	21 They say to him: Caesar's. Then he saith to them: Render therefore to Caesar the things that are Caesar's; and to God, the things that are God's.
22 וּכְשָׁמְעָם אֶת־זֹאת תָּמָהוּ וַיַּעַזְבֻהוּ וַיֵּלְכוּ לָהֶם	22 And hearing this they wondered, and leaving him, went their ways.
23 בַּיּוֹם הַהוּא נִגְּשׁוּ אֵלָיו צַדּוּקִים הָאֹמְרִים כִּי אֵין תְּחִיַּת הַמֵּתִים וַיִּשְׁאֲלוּ אֹתוֹ לֵאמֹר	23 That day there came to him the Sadducees, who say there is no resurrection; and asked him,
24 רַבִּי הֵן משֶׁה אָמַר אִישׁ כִּי־יָמוּת וּבָנִים אֵין־לוֹ אָחִיו יְיַבֵּם אֶת־אִשְׁתּוֹ וְהֵקִים זֶרַע לְאָחִיו	24 Saying: Master, Moses said: If a man die having no son, his brother shall marry his wife, and raise up issue to his brother.
25 וְאִתָּנוּ הָיוּ שִׁבְעָה אַחִים וְהָרִאשׁוֹן נָשָׂא אִשָּׁה וַיָּמָת וְזֶרַע אֵין לוֹ וַיַּעֲזֹב אֶת־אִשְׁתּוֹ לְאָחִיו	25 Now there were with us seven brethren: and the first having married a wife, died; and not having issue, left his wife to his brother.
26 וּכְמוֹ־כֵן גַּם הַשֵּׁנִי וְכֵן גַּם הַשְּׁלִישִׁי עַד הַשִּׁבְעָה	26 In like manner the second, and the third, and so on to the seventh.
27 וְאַחֲרֵי כֻלָּם מֵתָה גַּם־הָאִשָּׁה	27 And last of all the woman died also.
28 וְעַתָּה בִּתְחִיַּת הַמֵּתִים לְמִי מִן־הַשִּׁבְעָה תִּהְיֶה לְאִשָּׁה כִּי לְכֻלָּם הָיָתָה	28 At the resurrection therefore whose wife of the seven shall she be? for they all had her.
29 וַיַּעַן יֵשׁוּעַ וַיֹּאמֶר לָהֶם טֹעִים אַתֶּם בַּאֲשֶׁר אֵינְכֶם יוֹדְעִים אֶת־הַכְּתוּבִים וְגַם אֶת־גְּבוּרַת הָאֱלֹהִים	29 And Jesus answering, said to them: You err, not knowing the Scriptures, nor the power of God.
30 כִּי בִּתְחִיַּת הַמֵּתִים לֹא־יִשְׂאוּ נָשִׁים וְלֹא תִנָּשֶׂאנָה כִּי אִם־כְּמַלְאֲכֵי אֱלֹהִים בַּשָּׁמַיִם יִהְיוּ	30 For in the resurrection they shall neither marry nor be married; but shall be as the angels of God in heaven.
31 וְעַל־דְּבַר תְּחִיַּת הַמֵּתִים הֲלֹא קְרָאתֶם אֶת־הַנֶּאֱמָר לָכֶם מִפִּי הָאֱלֹהִים לֵאמֹר	31 And concerning the resurrection of the dead, have you not read that which was spoken by God, saying to you:
32 אָנֹכִי אֱלֹהֵי אַבְרָהָם וֵאלֹהֵי יִצְחָק וֵאלֹהֵי יַעֲקֹב וְהוּא אֵינֶנּוּ אֱלֹהֵי הַמֵּתִים כִּי אִם־אֱלֹהֵי הַחַיִּים	32 I am the God of Abraham, and the God of Isaac, and the God of Jacob? He is not the God of the dead, but of the living.
33 וַיִּשְׁמַע הֲמוֹן הָעָם וַיִּשְׁתּוֹמְמוּ עַל־תּוֹרָתוֹ	33 And the multitudes hearing it, were in admiration at his doctrine.
34 וְהַפְּרוּשִׁים כְּשָׁמְעָם כִּי סָכַר פִּי הַצַּדּוּקִים וַיִּוָּעֲדוּ יַחְדָּו	34 But the Pharisees hearing that he had silenced the Sadducees, came together:
35 וְאֶחָד מֵהֶם מֵבִין בַּתּוֹרָה שָׁאַל אֹתוֹ לְנַסּוֹתוֹ לֵאמֹר	35 And one of them, a doctor of the law, asking him, tempting him:
36 רַבִּי אֵיזוֹ מִצְוָה גְּדוֹלָה הִיא בַּתּוֹרָה	36 Master, which is the greatest commandment in the law?
37 וַיֹּאמֶר יֵשׁוּעַ אֵלָיו וְאָהַבְתָּ אֵת יְהוָֹה אֱלֹהֶיךָ בְּכָל־לְבָבְךָ וּבְכָל־נַפְשְׁךָ וּבְכָל־מַדָּעֶךָ	37 Jesus said to him: Thou shalt love the Lord thy God with thy whole heart, and with thy whole soul, and with thy whole mind.
38 זֹאת הִיא הַמִּצְוָה הַגְּדוֹלָה וְהָרִאשׁוֹנָה	38 This is the greatest and the first commandment.
39 וְהַשֵּׁנִית דּוֹמָה לָהּ וְאָהַבְתָּ לְרֵעֲךָ כָּמוֹךָ	39 And the second is like to this: Thou shalt love thy neighbor as thyself.
40 בִּשְׁתֵּי הַמִּצְוֺת הָאֵלֶּה כָּל־הַתּוֹרָה תְּלוּיָה וְגַם הַנְּבִיאִים	40 On these two commandments dependeth the whole law and the prophets.
41 וַיְהִי בְּהִקָּהֵל הַפְּרוּשִׁים וַיִּשְׁאָלֵם יֵשׁוּעַ לֵאמֹר	41 And the Pharisees being gathered together, Jesus asked them,
42 מַה־דַּעְתְּכֶם עַל־הַמָּשִׁיחַ בֶּן־מִי הוּא וַיֹּאמְרוּ אֵלָיו בֶּן־דָּוִד	42 Saying: What think you of Christ? whose son is he? They say to him: David's.
43 וַיֹּאמֶר אֲלֵיהֶם וְאֵיךְ קָרָא־לוֹ דָוִד בָּרוּחַ אָדוֹן בְּאָמְרוֹ	43 He saith to them: How then doth David in spirit call him Lord, saying:
44 נְאֻם יְהוָֹה לַאדֹנִי שֵׁב לִימִינִי עַד־אָשִׁית אֹיְבֶיךָ הֲדֹם לְרַגְלֶיךָ	44 The Lord said to my Lord, Sit on my right hand, until I make thy enemies thy footstool?
45 וְעַתָּה אִם־דָּוִד קֹרֵא לוֹ אָדוֹן אֵיךְ הוּא בְּנוֹ	45 If David then call him Lord, how is he his son?
46 וְלֹא־יָכֹל אִישׁ לַעֲנוֹת אֹתוֹ דָּבָר וְלֹא־עָרַב עוֹד אִישׁ אֶת־לִבּוֹ מִן־הַיּוֹם הַהוּא לִשְׁאֹל אוֹתוֹ	46 And no man was able to answer him a word; neither durst any man from that day forth ask him any more questions.
