馬 可 福 音 12:1-27
Chinese New Testament: Easy-to-Read Version
上帝派遣他的儿子
12 耶稣开始用比喻对他们说∶“有个人种了一个葡萄园,他把葡萄园用篱芭围起来,挖好了榨葡萄汁的槽,还盖了一座塔楼。他把园子租给了农户,然后出门旅行去了。 2 到了收葡萄的季节,他派了一个奴仆来向农户们要他应得的葡萄园里的那份果实, 3 但是农户们抓住奴仆,殴打了他一顿,还把他两手空空地撵了回去。 4 园主又派了一个奴仆去,农户们痛打了奴仆的脑袋,还羞辱了他一番。 5 园主再派另一个人去,农户们把他杀了。园主又派了许多人去,结果有的被打,有的被杀。
6 园主只剩下自己心爱的儿子了,最后他派去了自己的儿子。他说∶‘他们会尊敬我的儿子。’
7 但是农户们议论说∶‘这是园主的继承人,来啊,咱们把他杀掉,这份产业就归咱们了。’ 8 于是他们就抓住他,把他杀了,把尸体扔到园子外面。
9 “现在园主会怎么做呢?他会来杀掉那些农户,把园子转租给别人。 10 你们一定读过《经》上的这段话:
‘那块被建筑师舍弃的石头,
现在变成了基石。
11 这是主的安排,
在我们眼里,这是多么奇妙啊!” (A)
12 这些犹太首领知道耶稣讲的比喻是针对他们的,他们想设法逮捕耶稣,但是又害怕民众,他们便离开他走了。
犹太人首领企图对耶稣耍花招
13 后来,他们派了一些法利赛人和希律党人去抓挑耶稣的话柄。 14 这些人对耶稣说∶“老师,我们知道您很诚实。您不在乎别人的看法,您待人一视同仁,忠实地传播上帝的真理之道。请您告诉我们:向凯撒纳税是对还是错?我们该不该向凯撒交税?”
15 耶稣已经识破了他们的假意,就对他们说∶“你们为什么要来试探我呢?拿出一块银币来让我看一看。” 16 那些人递给耶稣一块银币。耶稣问∶“这上面刻着谁的头像和名字?”那些人答道∶“是凯撒的。”
17 耶稣说∶“那么,就应该把属于凯撒的东西给凯撒 [a],把属于上帝的东西给上帝。”人们听了这话都惊奇不已。
一些撒都该人企图对耶稣耍花招
18 此后,有一些撒都该人来见耶稣。(他们不相信人会复活。)他们问耶稣一个问题: 19 “老师,摩西写道∶‘如果一个结了婚的男子死了,没留下儿女,他的兄弟就应该和他的遗孀结婚,代兄长生儿育女。 20 从前一家有七个兄弟,老大结婚后死了,没留下孩子。 21 老二就娶了那寡妇。可是他也没有生下孩子就死了。接着是老三,结果也一样。 22 就这样,兄弟七人都没有和这个女子生下孩子就死了。最后,这个女子也死了。 23 既然七个人都娶过这个女子,那么在他们复活后,她应该是谁的妻子呢?”
24 耶稣说∶“这是你们大错的原因,你们既不理解《经》,也不了解上帝的力量。。 25 人们死而复活之后,人们像天上的天使一样,不娶也不嫁。 26 针对从死里复活,你们难道没读过摩西的书中关于燃烧的荆棘 [b]吗?上帝对摩西说∶‘我是亚伯拉罕的上帝,我是以撒的上帝,我是雅各的上帝。 [c]’ 27 上帝不是死人的上帝,而是活人的上帝。 [d]你们完全错了。”

The Parable of the Wicked Tenants
12 Then he began to speak to them in parables. ‘A man planted a vineyard, put a fence around it, dug a pit for the wine press, and built a watch-tower; then he leased it to tenants and went to another country. 2 When the season came, he sent a slave to the tenants to collect from them his share of the produce of the vineyard. 3 But they seized him, and beat him, and sent him away empty-handed. 4 And again he sent another slave to them; this one they beat over the head and insulted. 5 Then he sent another, and that one they killed. And so it was with many others; some they beat, and others they killed. 6 He had still one other, a beloved son. Finally he sent him to them, saying, “They will respect my son.” 7 But those tenants said to one another, “This is the heir; come, let us kill him, and the inheritance will be ours.” 8 So they seized him, killed him, and threw him out of the vineyard. 9 What then will the owner of the vineyard do? He will come and destroy the tenants and give the vineyard to others. 10 Have you not read this scripture:
“The stone that the builders rejected
has become the cornerstone;[a]
11 this was the Lord’s doing,
and it is amazing in our eyes”?’
12 When they realized that he had told this parable against them, they wanted to arrest him, but they feared the crowd. So they left him and went away.
The Question about Paying Taxes
13 Then they sent to him some Pharisees and some Herodians to trap him in what he said. 14 And they came and said to him, ‘Teacher, we know that you are sincere, and show deference to no one; for you do not regard people with partiality, but teach the way of God in accordance with truth. Is it lawful to pay taxes to the emperor, or not? 15 Should we pay them, or should we not?’ But knowing their hypocrisy, he said to them, ‘Why are you putting me to the test? Bring me a denarius and let me see it.’ 16 And they brought one. Then he said to them, ‘Whose head is this, and whose title?’ They answered, ‘The emperor’s.’ 17 Jesus said to them, ‘Give to the emperor the things that are the emperor’s, and to God the things that are God’s.’ And they were utterly amazed at him.
The Question about the Resurrection
18 Some Sadducees, who say there is no resurrection, came to him and asked him a question, saying, 19 ‘Teacher, Moses wrote for us that if a man’s brother dies, leaving a wife but no child, the man[b] shall marry the widow and raise up children for his brother. 20 There were seven brothers; the first married and, when he died, left no children; 21 and the second married her and died, leaving no children; and the third likewise; 22 none of the seven left children. Last of all the woman herself died. 23 In the resurrection[c] whose wife will she be? For the seven had married her.’
24 Jesus said to them, ‘Is not this the reason you are wrong, that you know neither the scriptures nor the power of God? 25 For when they rise from the dead, they neither marry nor are given in marriage, but are like angels in heaven. 26 And as for the dead being raised, have you not read in the book of Moses, in the story about the bush, how God said to him, “I am the God of Abraham, the God of Isaac, and the God of Jacob”? 27 He is God not of the dead, but of the living; you are quite wrong.’

King James Version
12 And he began to speak unto them by parables. A certain man planted a vineyard, and set an hedge about it, and digged a place for the winefat, and built a tower, and let it out to husbandmen, and went into a far country.
2 And at the season he sent to the husbandmen a servant, that he might receive from the husbandmen of the fruit of the vineyard.
3 And they caught him, and beat him, and sent him away empty.
4 And again he sent unto them another servant; and at him they cast stones, and wounded him in the head, and sent him away shamefully handled.
5 And again he sent another; and him they killed, and many others; beating some, and killing some.
6 Having yet therefore one son, his wellbeloved, he sent him also last unto them, saying, They will reverence my son.
7 But those husbandmen said among themselves, This is the heir; come, let us kill him, and the inheritance shall be ours.'
8 And they took him, and killed him, and cast him out of the vineyard.
9 What shall therefore the lord of the vineyard do? he will come and destroy the husbandmen, and will give the vineyard unto others.
10 And have ye not read this scripture; The stone which the builders rejected is become the head of the corner:
11 This was the Lord's doing, and it is marvellous in our eyes?
12 And they sought to lay hold on him, but feared the people: for they knew that he had spoken the parable against them: and they left him, and went their way.
13 And they send unto him certain of the Pharisees and of the Herodians, to catch him in his words.
14 And when they were come, they say unto him, Master, we know that thou art true, and carest for no man: for thou regardest not the person of men, but teachest the way of God in truth: Is it lawful to give tribute to Caesar, or not?
15 Shall we give, or shall we not give? But he, knowing their hypocrisy, said unto them, Why tempt ye me? bring me a penny, that I may see it.
16 And they brought it. And he saith unto them, Whose is this image and superscription? And they said unto him, Caesar's.
17 And Jesus answering said unto them, Render to Caesar the things that are Caesar's, and to God the things that are God's. And they marvelled at him.
18 Then come unto him the Sadducees, which say there is no resurrection; and they asked him, saying,
19 Master, Moses wrote unto us, If a man's brother die, and leave his wife behind him, and leave no children, that his brother should take his wife, and raise up seed unto his brother.
20 Now there were seven brethren: and the first took a wife, and dying left no seed.
21 And the second took her, and died, neither left he any seed: and the third likewise.
22 And the seven had her, and left no seed: last of all the woman died also.
23 In the resurrection therefore, when they shall rise, whose wife shall she be of them? for the seven had her to wife.
24 And Jesus answering said unto them, Do ye not therefore err, because ye know not the scriptures, neither the power of God?
25 For when they shall rise from the dead, they neither marry, nor are given in marriage; but are as the angels which are in heaven.
26 And as touching the dead, that they rise: have ye not read in the book of Moses, how in the bush God spake unto him, saying, I am the God of Abraham, and the God of Isaac, and the God of Jacob?
27 He is not the God of the dead, but the God of the living: ye therefore do greatly err.
