23 Then tote · ho Jesus Iēsous spoke laleō to the ho crowds ochlos and kai to ho his autos disciples mathētēs, ² saying legō, “ The ho scribes grammateus and kai the ho Pharisees Pharisaios now sit kathizō on epi the ho chair kathedra of Moses Mōysēs. ³ Therefore oun put into practice poieō and kai continue to do tēreō whatever hosos ean they tell legō you hymeis; but de do poieō not mē imitate poieō what kata they autos · ho do ergon, for gar they teach legō but kai do not ou practice poieō. ⁴ For de they tie desmeuō up heavy barys burdens phortion, · kai hard to bear dysbastaktos, and kai lay epitithēmi them on epi · ho people’ s anthrōpos shoulders ōmos, · ho but de they thelō themselves autos are thelō not ou willing thelō to move kineō them autos with ho their autos finger daktylos. ⁵ They do poieō all pas · de · ho their autos deeds ergon to pros · ho be seen theaomai by ho others anthrōpos: they make platynō · ho their autos phylacteries phylaktērion broad and kai their ho tassels kraspedon long megalynō, ⁶ they love phileō · de the ho place prōtoklisia of honor at en · ho banquets deipnon and kai the ho most important seats prōtokathedria in en the ho synagogues synagōgē, ⁷ and kai · ho greetings aspasmos in en the ho marketplaces agora, and kai to be called kaleō ‘ Rabbi rhabbi’ by hypo · ho others anthrōpos. ⁸ But de you hymeis are not mē to be called kaleō ‘ Rabbi rhabbi,’ for gar you hymeis have eimi but one heis · ho teacher didaskalos, and de you hymeis are eimi all pas brothers adelphos. ⁹ And kai do not mē call kaleō anyone on epi earth gē your hymeis ‘ father patēr,’ · ho for gar you hymeis have eimi but one heis · ho Father patēr, and he ho is in heaven ouranios. ¹⁰ Nor mēde should you be called kaleō ‘ instructors kathēgētēs,’ because hoti Christ Christos is eimi your hymeis only heis instructor kathēgētēs. · ho ¹¹ The ho · de greatest megas among you hymeis will be eimi your hymeis servant diakonos. ¹² And de whoever hostis will exalt hypsoō himself heautou will be humbled tapeinoō, and kai whoever hostis will humble tapeinoō himself heautou will be exalted hypsoō.

¹³ “ But de woe ouai to you hymeis, scribes grammateus and kai Pharisees Pharisaios, hypocrites hypokritēs, because hoti you shut kleiō the ho kingdom basileia of ho heaven ouranos in men’ s anthrōpos faces emprosthen. · ho For gar you hymeis neither ou enter eiserchomai yourselves nor oude allow aphiēmi those ho who would enter eiserchomai to go eiserchomai in .

¹⁵ “ Woe ouai to you hymeis, scribes grammateus and kai Pharisees Pharisaios, hypocrites hypokritēs, because hoti you travel periagō over · ho sea thalassa and kai · ho land xēros to gain poieō a single heis convert prosēlytos; and kai when hotan he becomes ginomai one, you make poieō him autos twice as much diplous a son hyios of hell geenna as diplous yourselves hymeis.

¹⁶ “ Woe ouai to you hymeis, blind typhlos guides hodēgos who ho say legō, ‘ If someone hos an swears omnyō by en the ho temple naos it means eimi nothing oudeis; but de if someone hos swears omnyō by en the ho gold chrysos of the ho temple naos, he is bound opheilō by his oath.’ ¹⁷ You fools mōros and kai blind typhlos men ! For gar which tis is eimi greater megas, the ho gold chrysos or ē the ho temple naos that ho makes the ho gold chrysos sacred hagiazō? ¹⁸ And kai you say, ‘ If someone hos an swears omnyō by en the ho altar thusiastērion it means eimi nothing oudeis; but de if someone hos swears omnyō by en the ho gift dōron that ho is on epanō it autos, he is bound opheilō by his oath.’ ¹⁹ How blind typhlos you are! For gar which tis is greater megas, the ho gift dōron or ē the ho altar thusiastērion that ho makes the ho gift dōron sacred hagiazō? ²⁰ So oun the ho one who swears omnyō by en the ho altar thusiastērion, swears omnyō not only by en it autos but kai by en everything pas · ho on epanō it autos. ²¹ And kai the ho one who swears omnyō by en the ho temple naos, swears omnyō not only by en it autos but kai by en the ho one who dwells katoikeō there autos. ²² And kai the ho one who swears omnyō by en · ho heaven ouranos, swears omnyō not only by en the ho throne thronos of ho God theos but kai by en the ho one who sits kathēmai on epanō it autos.

²³ “ Woe ouai to you hymeis, scribes grammateus and kai Pharisees Pharisaios, hypocrites hypokritēs, because hoti you tithe apodekatoō · ho mint hēdyosmon and kai · ho dill anēthon and kai · ho cumin kyminon, and kai have neglected aphiēmi the ho weightier barys matters of the ho law nomos: · ho justice krisis and kai · ho mercy eleos and kai · ho faithfulness pistis. These houtos · de you ought dei to have done poieō without mē neglecting aphiēmi the former kakeinos. ²⁴ You blind typhlos guides hodēgos! · ho You strain diylizō out the ho gnat kōnōps but de gulp down katapinō the ho camel kamēlos!

²⁵ “ Woe ouai to you hymeis, scribes grammateus and kai Pharisees Pharisaios, hypocrites hypokritēs, because hoti you clean katharizō off the ho outside exōthen of the ho cup potērion and kai the ho plate paropsis while de inside esōthen they are full gemō of ek greed harpagē and kai self-indulgence akrasia. ²⁶ You blind typhlos Pharisee Pharisaios! First prōton clean katharizō the ho inside entos of the ho cup potērion, so hina that its autos outside ektos may become ginomai clean katharos too kai. · ho

²⁷ “ Woe ouai to you hymeis, scribes grammateus and kai Pharisees Pharisaios, hypocrites hypokritēs, because hoti you are like paromoiazō whitewashed koniaō tombs taphos that hostis look phainō beautiful hōraios on the outside exōthen but de on the inside esōthen are full gemō of dead men’ s nekros bones osteon and kai all pas kinds of filth akatharsia. ²⁸ So houtōs you hymeis also kai outwardly exōthen appear phainō to ho others anthrōpos as righteous dikaios but de within esōthen you are eimi full mestos of hypocrisy hypokrisis and kai lawlessness anomia.

²⁹ “ Woe ouai to you hymeis, scribes grammateus and kai Pharisees Pharisaios, hypocrites hypokritēs, because hoti you build oikodomeō the ho tombs taphos of the ho prophets prophētēs and kai decorate kosmeō the ho graves mnēmeion of the ho righteous dikaios, ³⁰ and kai you say legō, ‘ If ei we had lived eimi in en the ho days hēmera of ho our hēmeis fathers patēr, we would an not ou have eimi taken part with koinōnos them autos in en shedding the ho blood haima of the ho prophets prophētēs.’ ³¹ By hōste saying this you testify martyreō against yourselves heautou that hoti you are eimi descendants hyios of those ho who murdered phoneuō the ho prophets prophētēs. ³² Fill plēroō up then kai the ho measure metron of ho your hymeis fathers’ patēr guilt. ³³ You snakes ophis! You brood gennēma of vipers echidna! How pōs will you escape pheugō from apo · ho being condemned krisis to · ho hell geenna? ³⁴ Therefore dia houtos I egō am sending apostellō you hymeis prophets prophētēs and kai wise sophos men and kai scribes grammateus, some of ek whom autos you will kill apokteinō and kai crucify stauroō, and kai some ek of whom autos you will flog mastigoō in en · ho your hymeis synagogues synagōgē and kai pursue diōkō from apo town polis to eis town polis, ³⁵ so hopōs that upon epi you hymeis will come erchomai all pas the righteous dikaios blood haima shed ekchunnomai on epi · ho earth gē, from apo the ho blood haima of righteous dikaios Abel Habel · ho to heōs the ho blood haima of Zechariah Zacharias son hyios of Barachiah Barachias, whom hos you murdered phoneuō between metaxy the ho sanctuary naos and kai the ho altar thusiastērion. ³⁶ I tell legō you hymeis the truth amēn, all pas these things houtos will come hēkō upon epi · ho this houtos generation genea.

³⁷ “ Jerusalem Ierousalēm, O Jerusalem Ierousalēm, you who ho kill apokteinō the ho prophets prophētēs and kai stone lithoboleō those ho who are sent apostellō to pros you autos! How posakis often have I wanted thelō to gather episynagō · ho your sy children teknon together as hos tropos a hen ornis gathers episynagō · ho her autos chicks nossion under hypo her ho wings pteryx, but kai you were not ou willing thelō! ³⁸ Look idou, your hymeis house oikos is left aphiēmi to you hymeis · ho desolate erēmos! ³⁹ For gar I say legō to you hymeis, you will not ou mē see me egō from apo now arti until heōs an you say legō, ‘ Blessed eulogeō is he ho who comes erchomai in en the name onoma of the Lord kyrios.’”

20 · kai One heis · ho day hēmera, as Jesus autos was teaching didaskō the ho people laos in en the ho temple hieron and kai preaching euangelizō the gospel , the ho chief archiereus priests and kai the ho scribes grammateus, along with syn the ho elders presbyteros, came up ephistēmi ² and kai spoke legō to pros him autos, saying legō, “ Tell legō us hēmeis by en what poios authority exousia you are doing poieō these houtos things ; or ē who tis it is eimi who ho gave didōmi you sy · ho this houtos authority exousia?” ³ He answered apokrinomai, · de saying legō to pros them autos, “ I kagō will also kagō ask erōtaō you hymeis a question logos, and kai you must give legō me egō the answer : ⁴ The ho baptism baptisma of John Iōannēs, was it eimi authorized from ek heaven ouranos or ē did it come from ek men anthrōpos?” ⁵ They ho · de reasoned syllogizomai among pros themselves heautou, saying legō, “ If ean we say legō, ‘ From ek heaven ouranos,’ then he will say legō, ‘ Why dia tis did you not ou believe pisteuō him autos?’ ⁶ But de if ean we say legō, ‘ From ek men anthrōpos,’ all hapas the ho people laos will stone katalithazō us hēmeis to death , because gar they are eimi convinced peithō that John Iōannēs was eimi a prophet prophētēs.” ⁷ So kai they replied apokrinomai that they did not mē know oida where pothen it was from . ⁸ Then kai · ho Jesus Iēsous said legō to them autos, “ Neither oude will I egō tell legō you hymeis by en what poios authority exousia I do poieō these houtos things .”

⁹ Then de he began archō to tell legō the ho people laos · ho this houtos parable parabolē: “A man anthrōpos planted phyteuō a vineyard ampelōn and kai leased ekdidōmi it autos to tenants geōrgos; then kai he went apodēmeō away for quite some hikanos time chronos. ¹⁰ · kai When the season kairos came, he sent apostellō a servant to pros the ho tenants geōrgos so hina that they might give didōmi him autos his share of apo the ho produce karpos of the ho vineyard ampelōn; but de the ho tenants geōrgos beat derō him and sent exapostellō him autos away empty-handed kenos. ¹¹ So kai he sent another prostithēmi servant; but de they ho beat derō that kakeinos one as kai well , treated atimazō him shamefully , and sent exapostellō him away empty-handed kenos. ¹² So kai he sent a third prostithēmi; but de they ho wounded traumatizō this one houtos too kai, and threw ekballō him out . ¹³ Then de the ho owner kyrios of the ho vineyard ampelōn said legō, ‘ What tis shall I do poieō? I will send pempō · ho my egō son hyios, whom ho I love agapētos; perhaps isōs they will respect entrepō him houtos.’ ¹⁴ When the ho tenants geōrgos saw · de him autos, they reasoned dialogizomai among pros themselves allēlōn, saying legō, ‘ This houtos is eimi the ho heir klēronomos. Let us kill apokteinō him autos, so hina that the ho inheritance klēronomia may be ginomai ours hēmeis.’ ¹⁵ And kai they threw ekballō him autos out exō of the ho vineyard ampelōn and killed apokteinō him. What tis then oun will the ho owner kyrios of the ho vineyard ampelōn do poieō to them autos? ¹⁶ He will come erchomai and kai destroy apollymi · ho those houtos tenants geōrgos and kai give didōmi the ho vineyard ampelōn to others allos.” When they heard akouō · de this, they said legō, “ Surely not mē!” ¹⁷ But de looking straight at emblepō them autos he ho said legō, “ What tis then oun is eimi this houtos that ho is written graphō: “The stone lithos that hos the ho builders oikodomeō rejected apodokimazō— this houtos one became ginomai eis the head kephalē of the corner gōnia’? ¹⁸ Everyone pas who ho falls piptō on epi that ekeinos · ho stone lithos will be broken synthlaō into pieces , and de on epi whomever hos it falls piptō, it will crush likmaō him autos.”

¹⁹ · kai The ho scribes grammateus and kai the ho chief archiereus priests tried zēteō to lay epiballō hands cheir on epi him autos · ho at en that autos very · ho hour hōra, for gar they perceived ginōskō that hoti he had spoken legō this houtos parable parabolē against pros them autos, but kai they feared phobeomai the ho people laos. · ho

²⁰ So kai they watched paratēreō him closely and sent apostellō spies who heautou pretended hypokrinomai to be eimi righteous dikaios so hina they could catch epilambanomai him in his autos word logos, and in this way hōste deliver paradidōmi him autos to the ho jurisdiction archē and kai · ho authority exousia of the ho governor hēgemōn. ²¹ · kai They questioned eperōtaō him autos, saying legō, “ Teacher didaskalos, we know oida that hoti you speak legō and kai teach didaskō truthfully orthōs and kai show lambanō no ou partiality prosōpon, but alla truly epi alētheia teach didaskō the ho way hodos of ho God theos. ²² Is it lawful for us hēmeis to give didōmi tribute phoros to Caesar Kaisar, or ē not ou?” ²³ But de he realized katanoeō their autos · ho duplicity panourgia, and said legō to pros them autos, ²⁴ “ Show deiknymi me egō a denarius dēnarion. Whose tis image eikōn and kai inscription epigraphē does it have echō?” They ho · de said legō, “Caesar’ s Kaisar.” ²⁵ He ho · de said legō to pros them autos, “Then give apodidōmi to Caesar Kaisar the ho things that are Caesar’ s Kaisar, and kai to ho God theos the ho things that are · ho God’ s theos.” ²⁶ And kai they were unable ou to trap epilambanomai him autos in what he said rhēma in the presence enantion of the ho people laos, but kai, marveling thaumazō at epi · ho his autos answer apokrisis, they were reduced sigaō to silence .

²⁷ Now de some tis · ho Sadducees Saddoukaios ( who ho deny legō there is eimi a resurrection anastasis) came up proserchomai and questioned eperōtaō him autos, ²⁸ saying legō, “ Teacher didaskalos, Moses Mōysēs wrote graphō for us hēmeis that if ean someone’ s tis brother adelphos dies apothnēskō, having echō a wife gynē, but kai is eimi childless ateknos, then hina his autos brother adelphos must take lambanō · ho the ho widow gynē and kai raise exanistēmi up offspring sperma for ho his autos brother adelphos. ²⁹ Now oun there were eimi seven hepta brothers adelphos. · kai The ho first prōtos, having taken lambanō a wife gynē, died apothnēskō childless ateknos. ³⁰ Both kai the ho second deuteros ³¹ and kai the ho third tritos took lambanō her autos, and de likewise hōsautōs also kai the ho seven hepta: they left kataleipō no ou children teknon and kai died apothnēskō. ³² Later hysteros on the ho woman gynē also kai died apothnēskō. ³³ So oun the ho woman gynē— in en the ho resurrection anastasis— of which tis of them autos will she be ginomai wife gynē? For gar all ho seven hepta had echō her autos as wife gynē.”

³⁴ And kai Jesus Iēsous said legō to them autos, · ho “ The ho sons hyios of ho this houtos age aiōn marry gameō and kai are given gamiskō in marriage , ³⁵ but de those ho who are considered kataxioō worthy to attain tynchanō to · ho that ekeinos age aiōn and kai to the ho resurrection anastasis · ho from ek the dead nekros neither oute marry gameō nor oute are given gamizō in marriage . ³⁶ In fact gar, they can dynamai no oude longer eti die apothnēskō, since gar they are eimi like angels isangelos and kai are eimi sons hyios of God theos, being eimi sons hyios of the ho resurrection anastasis. ³⁷ But de that hoti the ho dead nekros are raised egeirō, even kai Moses Mōysēs made known mēnyō, in the passage about epi the ho bush batos, for hōs he calls legō the Lord kyrios, ‘ the ho God theos of Abraham Abraam and kai the God theos of Isaac Isaak and kai the God theos of Jacob Iakōb.’ ³⁸ He is eimi not ou God theos · de of the dead nekros, but alla of the living zaō! For gar to him autos they are all pas alive zaō.”

³⁹ In response apokrinomai · de some tis of the ho scribes grammateus said legō, “ Teacher didaskalos, you have spoken legō well kalōs!” ⁴⁰ For gar no ouketi longer did they dare tolmaō to question eperōtaō him autos about anything oudeis.

⁴¹ Then de he said legō to pros them autos, “ How pōs can they say legō that the ho Messiah Christos is to be eimi a son hyios of David Dauid? ⁴² For gar David Dauid himself autos says legō in en the book biblos of Psalms psalmos, ‘The Lord kyrios said legō to ho my egō Lord kyrios, “ Sit kathēmai at ek my egō right dexios hand , ⁴³ until heōs an I make tithēmi · ho your sy enemies echthros a footstool hypopodion for ho your sy feet pous.”’ ⁴⁴ David Dauid thus oun calls kaleō him autos ‘ Lord kyrios.’ So kai how pōs could he be eimi his autos son hyios?”

⁴⁵ As all pas the ho people laos were listening akouō, · de he said legō to ho his autos disciples mathētēs, ⁴⁶ “ Beware prosechō of apo those ho scribes grammateus, who ho like thelō to walk peripateō around in en flowing robes stolē, and kai love phileō greetings aspasmos in en the ho marketplaces agora and kai the most important seats prōtokathedria in en the ho synagogues synagōgē and kai the places of honor prōtoklisia at en · ho feasts deipnon, ⁴⁷ who hos devour katesthiō the ho houses oikia of ho widows chēra and kai for the sake of appearance prophasis make lengthy makros prayers proseuchomai. These houtos will receive lambanō the greater perissoteros condemnation krima.”

21 Looking anablepō up , · de Jesus saw · ho rich people plousios putting ballō their autos gifts dōron into eis the ho offering gazophylakion box , · ho ² and de he saw a tis poor penichros widow chēra put ballō in ekei two dyo small coins. ³ And kai he said legō, “ I tell legō you hymeis the truth alēthōs, that hoti · ho this houtos poor ptōchos widow chēra · ho has put ballō in more polys than all pas the rest. ⁴ For gar they houtos all pas, out ek of ho their autos excess perisseuō, put ballō in eis their ho gifts dōron, but de she houtos, out ek of ho her autos need hysterēma, put in ballō everything pas that hos she had echō · ho to live bios on .”

⁵ And kai while some tis were speaking legō of peri the ho temple hieron, how hoti it was adorned kosmeō with beautiful kalos stones lithos and kai gifts anathēma dedicated to God , Jesus said legō, ⁶ “ These houtos things that hos you see theōreō— days hēmera will come erchomai in en which hos there will not ou be left aphiēmi stone lithos upon epi stone lithos that hos will not ou be thrown katalyō down .”

⁷ And de they asked eperōtaō him autos, saying legō, “ Teacher didaskalos, when pote will these houtos things be eimi, and kai what tis is the ho sign sēmeion when hotan these things houtos are about mellō to happen ginomai?” ⁸ And de he ho said legō, “ See blepō that you are not mē led planaō astray ! For gar many polys will come erchomai in epi · ho my egō name onoma, saying legō, ‘ I egō am eimi he!’ and kai, ‘ The ho time kairos is at hand engizō!’ Do not mē go poreuō after opisō them autos. ⁹ When hotan · de you hear akouō of wars polemos and kai rebellions akatastasia, do not mē be terrified ptoeō, for gar these things houtos must dei take ginomai place first prōton, but alla the ho end telos will not ou follow immediately eutheōs.” ¹⁰ Then tote he said legō to them autos, “ Nation ethnos will rise egeirō against epi nation ethnos, and kai kingdom basileia against epi kingdom basileia; ¹¹ there will be eimi great megas earthquakes seismos, and kai in various kata places topos famines limos and kai plagues loimos. There will be eimi dreadful phobētron portents and kai great megas signs sēmeion from apo heaven ouranos. ¹² But de before pro all pas these houtos things , they will lay epiballō their autos hands cheir on epi you hymeis · ho and kai persecute diōkō you, handing paradidōmi you over to eis the ho synagogues synagōgē and kai prisons phylakē, bringing apagō you before epi kings basileus and kai governors hēgemōn for the sake of · ho my egō name onoma. ¹³ This will result apobainō in an opportunity for you hymeis for eis witness martyrion. ¹⁴ So oun determine tithēmi in en · ho your hymeis hearts kardia not mē to rehearse promeletaō beforehand how to defend apologeomai yourself , ¹⁵ For gar I egō am the one who will give didōmi you hymeis a mouth stoma and kai wisdom sophia, which hos none ou of your hymeis adversaries antikeimai will be able dynamai to resist anthistēmi or ē contradict antilegō. · ho ¹⁶ You will be handed paradidōmi over · de even kai by hypo parents goneus and kai brothers adelphos and kai relatives syngenēs and kai friends philos, and kai some of ek you hymeis they will put thanatoō to death . ¹⁷ · kai You will be eimi hated miseō by hypo all pas because dia of · ho my egō name onoma. ¹⁸ Yet kai not ou a hair thrix of ek · ho your hymeis head kephalē will perish apollymi. ¹⁹ By en · ho your hymeis endurance hypomonē you will gain ktaomai · ho your hymeis lives psychē.
