12 And kai he began archō to speak laleō to them autos in en parables parabolē. “A man anthrōpos planted phyteuō a vineyard ampelōn and kai put peritithēmi a fence phragmos around it. · kai He dug oryssō a pit hypolēnion for the winepress and kai built oikodomeō a tower pyrgos; then kai he leased ekdidōmi it autos out to tenant geōrgos farmers and kai went apodēmeō on a journey . ² · kai At ho harvest time kairos he sent apostellō a servant to pros the ho tenant geōrgos farmers to hina receive lambanō from para the ho farmers geōrgos a portion apo of the ho fruit karpos from the ho vineyard ampelōn. ³ But kai they took lambanō him autos and beat derō him and kai sent apostellō him away empty-handed kenos. ⁴ And kai again palin he sent apostellō to pros them autos another allos servant; and kakeinos that one they struck kephalioō on the head and kai treated atimazō dishonorably . ⁵ So kai he sent apostellō another allos; and kakeinos that one they killed apokteinō— and kai so with many polys others allos, beating derō some hos and de killing apokteinō others hos. ⁶ He had echō still eti one heis other, a beloved agapētos son hyios. He sent apostellō him autos last eschatos to pros them autos, saying legō, ‘ They will respect entrepō · ho my egō son hyios.’ ⁷ But de those ekeinos · ho tenants geōrgos said legō to pros themselves heautou, ‘ This houtos is eimi the ho heir klēronomos; come deute, let us kill apokteinō him autos, and kai the ho inheritance klēronomia will be eimi ours hēmeis.’ ⁸ And kai taking lambanō him, they killed apokteinō him autos and kai threw ekballō him autos out exō of the ho vineyard ampelōn. ⁹ What tis therefore oun will the ho owner kyrios of the ho vineyard ampelōn do poieō? He will come erchomai and kai destroy apollymi the ho tenants geōrgos and kai give didōmi the ho vineyard ampelōn to others allos. ¹⁰ Have you anaginōskō not oude even read anaginōskō · ho this houtos scripture graphē: ‘The stone lithos that hos the ho builders oikodomeō rejected apodokimazō has become ginomai the capstone kephalē gōnia; ¹¹ this houtos came about ginomai from para the Lord kyrios, and kai it is eimi marvelous thaumastos in en our hēmeis eyes ophthalmos’?” ¹² And kai they were seeking zēteō to arrest krateō him autos, but kai feared phobeomai the ho people ochlos, for gar they knew ginōskō that hoti he had spoken legō the ho parable parabolē against pros them autos. So kai they left aphiēmi him autos and went aperchomai away .

¹³ And kai they sent apostellō to pros him autos some tis of the ho Pharisees Pharisaios and kai some of the ho Herodians hērōidianoi to hina trap agreuō him autos with a statement logos. ¹⁴ · kai When they came erchomai they said legō to him autos, “ Teacher didaskalos, we know oida that hoti you are eimi truthful alēthēs and kai that the opinion peri of another oudeis is of no ou concern melei to you sy. For gar you do not ou regard blepō the position prosōpon of men anthrōpos, but alla you didaskō truly epi alētheia teach didaskō the ho way hodos of ho God theos. Is it lawful to pay didōmi tax kēnsos to Caesar Kaisar, or ē not ou? Should we pay didōmi or ē should we not mē pay didōmi?” ¹⁵ But de knowing oida their autos · ho hypocrisy hypokrisis, he ho said legō to them autos, “ Why tis do you test peirazō me egō? Bring pherō me egō a denarius dēnarion and let hina me look at it.” ¹⁶ So de they ho brought pherō one. And kai he said legō to them autos, “ Of whom tis is · ho this houtos likeness eikōn and kai · ho inscription epigraphē?” And de they ho said legō to him autos, “ Caesar Kaisar.” ¹⁷ · ho · de Jesus Iēsous said legō to them autos, “ Give apodidōmi to Caesar Kaisar what ho belongs to Caesar Kaisar, but kai give to ho God theos what ho belongs to · ho God theos.” And kai they were amazed ekthaumazō at epi him autos.

¹⁸ And kai the Sadducees Saddoukaios, who hostis say legō there is eimi no mē resurrection anastasis, came erchomai to pros him autos, and kai they were questioning eperōtaō him autos, saying legō, ¹⁹ “ Teacher didaskalos, Moses Mōysēs wrote graphō for us hēmeis that hoti if ean someone’ s tis brother adelphos should die apothnēskō and kai leave kataleipō behind a wife gynē, but kai not mē leave aphiēmi behind a child teknon, that hina his autos brother adelphos should take lambanō · ho the ho widow gynē and kai raise exanistēmi up offspring sperma for ho his autos brother adelphos. ²⁰ There were eimi seven hepta brothers adelphos; · kai the ho first prōtos took lambanō a wife gynē, and kai when he died apothnēskō he left aphiēmi no ou offspring sperma. ²¹ Then kai the ho second deuteros brother took lambanō her autos, and kai he died apothnēskō, leaving behind kataleipō no mē offspring sperma. And kai the ho third tritos likewise hōsautōs. ²² And kai the ho seven hepta did not ou leave aphiēmi offspring sperma. Last eschatos of all pas the ho woman gynē also kai died apothnēskō. ²³ In en the ho resurrection anastasis, when hotan they rise anistēmi again , of which tis of them autos will she be eimi wife gynē? For gar all ho seven hepta had echō her autos as wife gynē.” ²⁴ Jesus Iēsous said phēmi to them autos, · ho “ Are you planaō not ou mistaken planaō for dia this houtos reason , that you know oida neither mē the ho scriptures graphē nor mēde the ho power dynamis of ho God theos? ²⁵ For gar when hotan people rise anistēmi from ek the dead nekros, they neither oute marry gameō nor oute are they given in marriage gamizō, but alla they are eimi as hōs angels angelos in en · ho heaven ouranos. ²⁶ But de concerning peri the ho dead nekros, that hoti they are raised egeirō, have you not ou read anaginōskō in en the ho book biblos of Moses Mōysēs in the passage about epi the ho bush batos, how pōs God theos spoke legō to him autos · ho saying legō, ‘ I egō am the ho God theos of Abraham Abraam and kai the ho God theos of Isaac Isaak and kai the ho God theos of Jacob Iakōb’? ²⁷ He is eimi not ou God theos of the dead nekros, but alla of the living zaō. You are greatly polys mistaken planaō!”

²⁸ And kai one heis of the ho scribes grammateus came proserchomai up and heard akouō them autos disputing syzēteō. Seeing how hoti well kalōs Jesus had answered apokrinomai them autos, he put this question eperōtaō to him autos: “ Which poios commandment entolē is eimi the most important prōtos of all pas?” ²⁹ Jesus Iēsous answered apokrinomai, · ho “The most important prōtos is eimi, ‘ Hear akouō, Israel Israēl, the Lord kyrios · ho our hēmeis God theos, the Lord kyrios is eimi one heis; ³⁰ and kai you shall love agapaō the Lord kyrios · ho your sy God theos with ek your sy whole holos · ho heart kardia, and kai with ek your sy whole holos · ho life psychē, and kai with ek your sy whole holos · ho mind dianoia, and kai with ek your sy whole holos · ho strength ischus.’ ³¹ The second deuteros is this houtos: ‘ You shall love agapaō · ho your sy neighbor plēsion as hōs yourself seautou.’ There is eimi no ou other allos commandment entolē greater megas than these houtos.” ³² And kai the ho scribe grammateus said legō to him autos, “ Well kalōs said, teacher didaskalos. You have spoken legō truthfully epi alētheia; ‘ he is eimi one heis, and kai there is eimi no ou other allos besides plēn him autos.’ ³³ And kai · ho ‘ to love agapaō him autos with ek the ho whole holos heart kardia, and kai with ek the ho whole holos understanding synesis, and kai with ek the ho whole holos strength ischus,’ and kai · ho ‘ to love agapaō one’ s ho neighbor plēsion as hōs oneself heautou,’ is eimi much perissoteros more than all pas · ho whole burnt offerings holokautōma and kai sacrifices thusia.” ³⁴ And kai · ho Jesus Iēsous, seeing that hoti the scribe had answered apokrinomai wisely nounechōs, said legō to him autos, “ You are eimi not ou far makran from apo the ho kingdom basileia of ho God theos.” And kai no one oudeis dared tolmaō to question eperōtaō him autos any more ouketi.

³⁵ · kai While didaskō · ho Jesus Iēsous was teaching didaskō in en the ho temple hieron, he said legō, “ How pōs can the ho scribes grammateus say legō that hoti · ho Messiah Christos is eimi the son hyios of David Dauid? ³⁶ David Dauid himself autos, by en the ho Holy hagios Spirit pneuma, said legō, · ho ‘The Lord kyrios said legō to ho my egō Lord kyrios, “ Sit kathēmai at ek my egō right dexios hand , until heōs an I put tithēmi · ho your sy enemies echthros beneath hypokatō · ho your sy feet pous.”’ ³⁷ David Dauid himself autos calls legō him autos ‘ Lord kyrios,’ so kai how pothen can he be eimi his autos son hyios?” And kai the ho large polys crowd ochlos was listening akouō to him autos with delight hēdeōs.

³⁸ And kai in en · ho his autos teaching didachē he was saying legō, “ Beware blepō of apo the ho scribes grammateus, who ho like thelō to parade around peripateō in en flowing robes stolē, and kai want greetings aspasmos in en the ho marketplaces agora ³⁹ and kai the front seats prōtokathedria in en the ho synagogues synagōgē, and kai the places prōtoklisia of honor at en · ho banquets deipnon. ⁴⁰ They ho devour katesthiō the ho property oikia of ho widows chēra and kai, as a show prophasis, offer up long makros prayers proseuchomai. These houtos men will receive lambanō a more perissoteros severe judgment krima.”

⁴¹ And kai taking kathizō a seat opposite katenanti the ho treasury gazophylakion, he was watching theōreō how pōs the ho people ochlos were putting ballō money chalkos into eis the ho offering gazophylakion box . · kai Many polys rich plousios people were putting ballō in large polys sums . ⁴² · kai A heis poor ptōchos widow chēra approached erchomai and put ballō in two dyo small coins, about hos eimi a penny kodrantēs. ⁴³ And kai he called proskaleō · ho his autos disciples mathētēs to him and said legō to them autos, “ I tell legō you hymeis the truth amēn, · ho this houtos poor ptōchos widow chēra · ho has put in ballō more polys than all pas those ho who are putting ballō large amounts into eis the ho offering gazophylakion box . ⁴⁴ For gar they ballō all pas put in ballō from ek · ho their autos abundance perisseuō, but de she houtos from ek · ho her autos need hysterēsis has put in ballō everything pas hosos she had echō— all holos · ho she had autos to live bios on.”

13 And kai as he autos went ekporeuomai out of ek the ho temple hieron, one heis of ho his autos disciples mathētēs said legō to him autos, “ Teacher didaskalos, look ide, what potapos massive stones lithos and kai what potapos magnificent buildings oikodomē!” ² And kai · ho Jesus Iēsous said legō to him autos, “ Do you see blepō these houtos · ho great megas buildings oikodomē? Not ou mē a single stone lithos will be left aphiēmi here hōde resting on epi another lithos that hos will not ou mē be thrown down katalyō.” ³ So kai while he autos was sitting kathēmai on eis the ho Mount oros of ho Olives elaia opposite katenanti the ho temple hieron, Peter Petros, James Iakōbos, John Iōannēs, and kai Andrew Andreas questioned eperōtaō him autos privately kata idios. · kai · kai ⁴ “ Tell legō us hēmeis, when pote will these houtos things be eimi, and kai what tis will be the ho sign sēmeion when hotan all pas these things houtos are about mellō to take place synteleō?” ⁵ · ho And de Jesus Iēsous began archō to speak legō to them autos, “ Watch blepō out lest mē someone tis mislead planaō you hymeis. ⁶ Many polys will come erchomai in epi · ho my egō name onoma, saying legō, ‘ I egō am eimi he,’ and kai they will deceive planaō many polys. ⁷ And de when hotan you hear akouō of wars polemos and kai rumors akoē of wars polemos, do not mē be alarmed throeō; those things must dei happen ginomai, but alla the ho end telos is not oupō yet . ⁸ For gar nation ethnos will rise egeirō against epi nation ethnos and kai kingdom basileia against epi kingdom basileia. There will be eimi earthquakes seismos in kata various places topos; there will be eimi famines limos. These houtos are the beginning archē of birth pains ōdin. ⁹ But de watch blepō out for yourselves heautou; they will deliver paradidōmi you hymeis over to eis local councils synedrion, and kai in eis synagogues synagōgē you will be beaten derō, and kai before epi governors hēgemōn and kai kings basileus you will be made to stand histēmi for my egō sake, to eis bear witness martyrion to them autos. ¹⁰ · kai First prōton the ho gospel euangelion must dei be preached kēryssō to eis every pas · ho nation ethnos. ¹¹ And kai when hotan they bring agō you hymeis to trial and deliver paradidōmi you over , do not mē worry promerimnaō ahead of time what tis you should say laleō, but alla whatever hos ean is given didōmi you hymeis in en that ekeinos · ho hour hōra, speak laleō; for gar you hymeis are eimi not ou the ho ones who will be speaking laleō, but alla the ho Holy hagios Spirit pneuma. · ho ¹² And kai brother adelphos will deliver paradidōmi over brother adelphos to eis death thanatos, and kai a father patēr his child teknon; and kai children teknon will rise epanistēmi up in rebellion against epi parents goneus and kai have them autos put thanatoō to death . ¹³ And kai you will be eimi hated miseō by hypo all pas on dia account of · ho my egō name onoma. But de the ho one who perseveres hypomenō to eis the end telos will be saved sōzō.

¹⁴ “ When hotan · de you see the ho ‘ abomination bdelygma of ho desolation erēmōsis’ standing histēmi where hopou he should not ou be dei ( let the ho reader anaginōskō understand noeō), then tote let those ho who are in en · ho Judea Ioudaia flee pheugō to eis the ho mountains oros. ¹⁵ Let the ho one · de who is on epi the ho housetop dōma not mē come down katabainō, nor mēde enter eiserchomai his autos house oikia to remove airō anything tis from ek it; · ho ¹⁶ and kai let the ho one who is in eis the ho field agros not mē return epistrephō · ho to get airō · ho his autos cloak himation. ¹⁷ But de woe ouai to those ho women who are echō pregnant en gastēr and kai to those ho who are nursing thēlazō in en those ekeinos · ho days hēmera. ¹⁸ And de pray proseuchomai that hina it may not mē happen ginomai during winter cheimōn, ¹⁹ because gar those ekeinos will be eimi · ho days hēmera of such toioutos tribulation thlipsis as hoios has never ou happened ginomai from apo the beginning archē of creation ktisis, which hos God theos created ktizō, · ho until heōs · ho now nyn, nor ever kai will be ginomai. ²⁰ And kai unless ei mē the Lord kyrios had cut koloboō short the ho number of days hēmera, no ou one pas would an survive sōzō; but alla on account dia of the ho elect eklektos, whom hos he chose eklegomai, he cut koloboō short the ho days hēmera. ²¹ And kai then tote if ean someone tis should say legō to you hymeis, ‘ Look ide, here hōde is the ho Christ Christos!’ or, ‘ Look ide, there ekei he is!’— do not mē believe pisteuō it. ²² For gar false christs pseudochristos and kai false prophets pseudoprophētēs will arise egeirō and kai will offer didōmi signs sēmeion and kai wonders teras in pros order to · ho deceive apoplanaō, if ei possible dynatos, the ho elect eklektos. ²³ But de you hymeis, beware blepō; I have told you hymeis all pas this in advance. ²⁴ But alla in en those ekeinos · ho days hēmera, after meta · ho that ekeinos tribulation thlipsis, the ho sun hēlios will be darkened, and kai the ho moon selēnē will not ou give didōmi · ho its autos light phengos, ²⁵ and kai the ho stars astēr will be eimi falling piptō from ek · ho heaven ouranos, and kai the ho powers dynamis · ho in en the ho heavens ouranos will be shaken saleuō. ²⁶ And kai then tote they will see horaō the ho Son hyios of ho Man anthrōpos coming erchomai in en clouds nephelē, with meta great polys power dynamis and kai glory doxa. ²⁷ And kai at tote that time he will send apostellō his ho angels angelos, and kai will gather episynagō · ho his autos elect eklektos from ek the ho four tessares winds anemos, from apo the ends akron of the earth gē to heōs the ends akron of heaven ouranos.
