RHE

NIV

1 And he began to speak to them in parables: A certain man planted a vineyard and made a hedge about it and dug a place for the winefat and built a tower and let it to husbandmen: and went into a far country.
1 Jesus then began to speak to them in parables: “A man planted a vineyard. He put a wall around it, dug a pit for the winepress and built a watchtower. Then he rented the vineyard to some farmers and moved to another place.
2 And at the season he sent to the husbandmen a servant to receive of the husbandmen of the fruit of the vineyard.
2 At harvest time he sent a servant to the tenants to collect from them some of the fruit of the vineyard.
3 Who, having laid hands on him, beat and sent him away empty.
3 But they seized him, beat him and sent him away empty-handed.
4 And again he sent to them another servant: and him they wounded in the head and used him reproachfully.
4 Then he sent another servant to them; they struck this man on the head and treated him shamefully.
5 And again he sent another, and him they killed: and many others, of whom some they beat, and others they killed.
5 He sent still another, and that one they killed. He sent many others; some of them they beat, others they killed.
6 Therefore, having yet one son, most dear to him, he also sent him unto them last of all, saying: They will reverence my son.
6 “He had one left to send, a son, whom he loved. He sent him last of all, saying, ‘They will respect my son.’
7 But the husbandmen said one to another: This is the heir. Come let us kill him and the inheritance shall be ours.
7 “But the tenants said to one another, ‘This is the heir. Come, let’s kill him, and the inheritance will be ours.’
8 And laying hold on him, they killed him and cast him out of the vineyard.
8 So they took him and killed him, and threw him out of the vineyard.
9 What therefore will the lord of the vineyard do? He will come and destroy those husbandmen and will give the vineyard to others.
9 “What then will the owner of the vineyard do? He will come and kill those tenants and give the vineyard to others.
10 And have you not read this scripture, The stone which the builders rejected, the same is made the head of the corner:
10 Haven’t you read this passage of Scripture: “ ‘The stone the builders rejected has become the cornerstone;
11 By the Lord has this been done, and it is wonderful in our eyes.
11 the Lord has done this, and it is marvelous in our eyes’?”
12 And they sought to lay hands on him: but they feared the people. For they knew that he spoke this parable to them. And leaving him, they went their way.
12 Then the chief priests, the teachers of the law and the elders looked for a way to arrest him because they knew he had spoken the parable against them. But they were afraid of the crowd; so they left him and went away.
13 And they sent to him some of the Pharisees and of the Herodians: that they should catch him in his words.
13 Later they sent some of the Pharisees and Herodians to Jesus to catch him in his words.
14 Who coming, say to him: Master, we know that thou art a true speaker and carest not for any 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 shall we not give it?
14 They came to him and said, “Teacher, we know that you are a man of integrity. You aren’t swayed by others, because you pay no attention to who they are; but you teach the way of God in accordance with the truth. Is it right to pay the imperial tax to Caesar or not?
15 Who knowing their wiliness, saith to them: Why tempt you me? Bring me a penny that I may see it.
15 Should we pay or shouldn’t we?” But Jesus knew their hypocrisy. “Why are you trying to trap me?” he asked. “Bring me a denarius and let me look at it.”
16 And they brought it him. And he saith to them: Whose is this image and inscription? They say to him, Caesar’s.
16 They brought the coin, and he asked them, “Whose image is this? And whose inscription?”“Caesar’s,” they replied.
17 And Jesus answering, said to them: Render therefore to Caesar the things that are Caesar’s and to God the things that are God’s. And they marvelled at him.
17 Then Jesus said to them, “Give back to Caesar what is Caesar’s and to God what is God’s.”And they were amazed at him.
18 And there came to him the Sadducees, who say there is no resurrection. And they asked him, saying:
18 Then the Sadducees, who say there is no resurrection, came to him with a question.
19 Master, Moses wrote unto us that if any man’s brother die and leave his wife behind him and leave no children, his brother should take his wife and raise up seed to his brother.
19 “Teacher,” they said, “Moses wrote for us that if a man’s brother dies and leaves a wife but no children, the man must marry the widow and raise up offspring for his brother.
20 Now there were seven brethren: and the first took a wife and died leaving no issue.
20 Now there were seven brothers. The first one married and died without leaving any children.
21 And the second took her and died: and neither did he leave any issue. And the third in like manner.
21 The second one married the widow, but he also died, leaving no child. It was the same with the third.
22 And the seven all took her in like manner and did not leave issue. Last of all the woman also died.
22 In fact, none of the seven left any children. Last of all, the woman died too.
23 In the resurrection therefore, when they shall rise again, whose wife shall she be of them? For the seven had her to wife.
23 At the resurrection whose wife will she be, since the seven were married to her?”
24 And Jesus answering, saith to them: Do ye not therefore err, because you know not the scriptures nor the power of God?
24 Jesus replied, “Are you not in error because you do not know the Scriptures or the power of God?
25 For when they shall rise again from the dead, they shall neither marry, nor be married, but are as the angels in heaven.
25 When the dead rise, they will neither marry nor be given in marriage; they will be like the angels in heaven.
26 And as concerning the dead that they rise again have you not read in the book of Moses, how in the bush God spoke to him, saying: I am the God of Abraham and the God of Isaac and the God of Jacob?
26 Now about the dead rising—have you not read in the Book of Moses, in the account of the burning bush, how God said to him, ‘I am the God of Abraham, the God of Isaac, and the God of Jacob’?
27 He is not the God of the dead, but of the living. You therefore do greatly err.
27 He is not the God of the dead, but of the living. You are badly mistaken!”
28 And there came one of the scribes that had heard them reasoning together, and seeing that he had answered them well, asked him which was the first commandment of all.
28 One of the teachers of the law came and heard them debating. Noticing that Jesus had given them a good answer, he asked him, “Of all the commandments, which is the most important?”
29 And Jesus answered him: The first commandment of all is, Hear, O Israel: the Lord thy God is one God.
29 “The most important one,” answered Jesus, “is this: ‘Hear, O Israel: The Lord our God, the Lord is one.
30 And thou shalt love the Lord thy God with thy whole heart and with thy whole soul and with thy whole mind and with thy whole strength. This is the first commandment.
30 Love the Lord your God with all your heart and with all your soul and with all your mind and with all your strength.’
31 And the second is like to it: Thou shalt love thy neighbour as thyself. There is no other commandment greater than these.
31 The second is this: ‘Love your neighbor as yourself.’There is no commandment greater than these.”
32 And the scribe said to him: Well, Master, thou hast said in truth that there is one God and there is no other besides him.
32 “Well said, teacher,” the man replied. “You are right in saying that God is one and there is no other but him.
33 And that he should be loved with the whole heart and with the whole understanding and with the whole soul and with the whole strength. And to love one’s neighbour as one’s self is a greater thing than all holocausts and sacrifices.
33 To love him with all your heart, with all your understanding and with all your strength, and to love your neighbor as yourself is more important than all burnt offerings and sacrifices.”
34 And Jesus seeing that he had answered wisely, said to him: Thou art not far from the kingdom of God. And no man after that durst ask him any question.
34 When Jesus saw that he had answered wisely, he said to him, “You are not far from the kingdom of God.” And from then on no one dared ask him any more questions.
35 And Jesus answering, said, teaching in the temple: How do the scribes say that Christ is the son of David?
35 While Jesus was teaching in the temple courts, he asked, “Why do the teachers of the law say that the Messiah is the son of David?
36 For David himself saith by the Holy Ghost: The Lord said to my Lord: Sit on my right hand, until I make thy enemies thy footstool.
36 David himself, speaking by the Holy Spirit, declared: “ ‘The Lord said to my Lord:“Sit at my right handuntil I put your enemiesunder your feet.” ’
37 David therefore himself calleth him Lord. And whence is he then his son? And a great multitude heard him gladly.
37 David himself calls him ‘Lord.’ How then can he be his son?”The large crowd listened to him with delight.
38 And he said to them in his doctrine: Beware of the scribes, who love to walk in long robes and to be saluted in the marketplace,
38 As he taught, Jesus said, “Watch out for the teachers of the law. They like to walk around in flowing robes and be greeted with respect in the marketplaces,
39 And to sit in the first chairs in the synagogues and to have the highest places at suppers:
39 and have the most important seats in the synagogues and the places of honor at banquets.
40 Who devour the houses of widows under the pretence of long prayer. These shall receive greater judgment.
40 They devour widows’ houses and for a show make lengthy prayers. These men will be punished most severely.”
41 And Jesus sitting over against the treasury, beheld how the people cast money into the treasury. And many that were rich cast in much.
41 Jesus sat down opposite the place where the offerings were put and watched the crowd putting their money into the temple treasury. Many rich people threw in large amounts.
42 And there came a certain poor widow: and she cast in two mites, which make a farthing.
42 But a poor widow came and put in two very small copper coins, worth only a few cents.
43 And calling his disciples together, he saith to them: Amen I say to you, this poor widow hath cast in more than all they who have cast into the treasury.
43 Calling his disciples to him, Jesus said, “Truly I tell you, this poor widow has put more into the treasury than all the others.
44 For all they did cast in of their abundance; but she of her want cast in all she had, even her whole living.
44 They all gave out of their wealth; but she, out of her poverty, put in everything—all she had to live on.”
