¹Ja see sündis ühel neist päevist, kui Jeesus rahvast pühakojas õpetas ja evangeeliumi kuulutas, et ülempreestrid ja kirjatundjad koos vanematega astusid ta juurde

¹It happened on one of those days, as he was teaching the people in the temple and preaching the Good News, that the TR adds “chief” priests and scribes came to him with the elders.

²ja küsisid temalt: 'Ütle meile, millise meelevallaga sa neid asju teed või kes on see, kes sulle selle meelevalla on andnud?'

²They asked him, “Tell us: by what authority do you do these things? Or who is giving you this authority?”

³Jeesus kostis neile: 'Ka mina küsin teilt ühte asja. Öelge mulle,

³He answered them, “I also will ask you one question. Tell me:

⁴kas Johannese ristimine oli taevast või inimestest.'

⁴ the baptism of John, was it from heaven, or from men?”

⁵Aga nemad arutasid omavahel: 'Kui ütleme, et taevast, siis ta ütleb: 'Miks te siis ei uskunud teda?'

⁵They reasoned with themselves, saying, “If we say, ‘From heaven,’ he will say, ‘Why didn’t you believe him?’

⁶Kui me aga ütleksime: 'Inimestest', siis kogu rahvas viskab meid kividega surnuks, sest nemad on veendunud, et Johannes oli prohvet.'

⁶But if we say, ‘From men,’ all the people will stone us, for they are persuaded that John was a prophet.”

⁷Ja nemad vastasid, et nad ei teadvat, kust see oli.

⁷They answered that they didn’t know where it was from.

⁸Siis Jeesus ütles neile: 'Ega minagi teile ütle, millise meelevallaga ma seda teen.'

⁸Jesus said to them, “Neither will I tell you by what authority I do these things.”

⁹Jeesus aga hakkas rahvale rääkima seda tähendamissõna: 'Üks inimene istutas viinamäe ja andis selle rentnike kätte ning reisis pikaks ajaks võõrsile.

⁹He began to tell the people this parable. “A NU (in brackets) and TR add “certain” man planted a vineyard, and rented it out to some farmers, and went into another country for a long time.

¹⁰Ja parajal ajal läkitas ta sulase rentnike juurde, et need sellele annaksid viinamäe viljast. Aga rentnikud peksid teda ja saatsid ta minema tühjade kätega.

¹⁰ At the proper season, he sent a servant to the farmers to collect his share of the fruit of the vineyard. But the farmers beat him, and sent him away empty.

¹¹Ja ta läkitas veel teise sulase. Nemad peksid ja solvasid tedagi ning saatsid ta minema tühjade kätega.

¹¹ He sent yet another servant, and they also beat him, and treated him shamefully, and sent him away empty.

¹²Ja ta läkitas veel kolmanda. Aga sellegi nad peksid veriseks ja viskasid välja.

¹² He sent yet a third, and they also wounded him, and threw him out.

¹³Siis mõtles viinamäe isand: 'Mis ma pean tegema? Ma saadan oma armsa poja, võib-olla teda nad häbenevad.'

¹³ The lord of the vineyard said, ‘What shall I do? I will send my beloved son. It may be that seeing him, they will respect him.’

¹⁴Aga teda nähes arutasid rentnikud omavahel: 'Tema ongi see pärija! Tapame ta ära, et pärand saaks meile!'

¹⁴ “But when the farmers saw him, they reasoned among themselves, saying, ‘This is the heir. Come, let’s kill him, that the inheritance may be ours.’

¹⁵Ja nad viskasid ta viinamäelt välja ning tapsid ära. Mida nüüd viinamäe isand teeb nendega?

¹⁵ They threw him out of the vineyard, and killed him. What therefore will the lord of the vineyard do to them?

¹⁶Ta tuleb ja hukkab need rentnikud ja annab viinamäe teiste kätte.' Seda kuuldes nad ütlesid: 'Taevas hoidku selle eest!'

¹⁶ He will come and destroy these farmers, and will give the vineyard to others.” When they heard it, they said, “May it never be!”

¹⁷Tema aga ütles neile otsa vaadates: 'Mida siis tähendab see kirjasõna: Kivi, mille ehitajad tunnistasid kõlbmatuks - seesama on saanud nurgakiviks?

¹⁷But he looked at them, and said, “Then what is this that is written, ‘The stone which the builders rejected, the same was made the chief cornerstone?’ Psalm 118:22

¹⁸Igaüks, kes selle kivi peale kukub, kukub end puruks, aga kelle peale iganes see kivi langeb, selle teeb see pihuks ja põrmuks.'

¹⁸ Everyone who falls on that stone will be broken to pieces, but it will crush whomever it falls on to dust.”

¹⁹Ja kirjatundjad ja ülempreestrid otsisid võimalust selsamal tunnil pista käsi tema külge, kuid nad kartsid rahvast. Nad ju mõistsid, et Jeesus oli selle tähendamissõna rääkinud nende kohta.

¹⁹The chief priests and the scribes sought to lay hands on him that very hour, but they feared the people—for they knew he had spoken this parable against them.

²⁰Ja nad läkitasid Jeesust varitsema nuhke, kes pidid teesklema õigeid, et teda tabada mõne sõna pealt, nii et nad võiksid ta anda maavalitseja võimusesse ja meelevalda.

²⁰They watched him, and sent out spies, who pretended to be righteous, that they might trap him in something he said, so as to deliver him up to the power and authority of the governor.

²¹Ja need küsisid temalt: 'Õpetaja, me teame, et sa räägid ja õpetad õigesti ega otsusta näo järgi, vaid õpetad Jumala teed tõepäraselt.

²¹They asked him, “Teacher, we know that you say and teach what is right, and aren’t partial to anyone, but truly teach the way of God.

²²Kas me peame keisrile andma pearaha või ei?'

²²Is it lawful for us to pay taxes to Caesar, or not?”

²³Aga et Jeesus märkas nende salakavalust, ütles ta neile:

²³But he perceived their craftiness, and said to them, “Why do you test me?

²⁴'Näidake mulle teenarit! Kelle pilt ja kiri sellel on?' Nemad ütlesid: 'Keisri.'

²⁴ Show me a denarius. Whose image and inscription are on it?” They answered, “Caesar’s.”

²⁵Jeesus ütles neile: 'Andke siis nüüd keisri oma keisrile tagasi ja Jumala oma Jumalale!'

²⁵He said to them, “Then give to Caesar the things that are Caesar’s, and to God the things that are God’s.”

²⁶Ja nad ei suutnud teda millestki tema kõnes tabada rahvahulga ees ja tema vastust imetledes jäid nad vait.

²⁶They weren’t able to trap him in his words before the people. They marveled at his answer, and were silent.

²⁷Jeesuse juurde astusid mõned saduserid, kes ütlesid, et surnuist ülestõusmist ei ole olemas, ja küsisid temalt:

²⁷Some of the Sadducees came to him, those who deny that there is a resurrection.

²⁸'Õpetaja, Mooses on meile kirjutanud: Kui sureb kellegi vend, kel on naine, ja tal ei ole olnud lapsi, siis ta vend peab võtma oma surnud venna naise ja soetama sugu vennale.

²⁸They asked him, “Teacher, Moses wrote to us that if a man’s brother dies having a wife, and he is childless, his brother should take the wife, and raise up children for his brother.

²⁹Oli kord seitse venda: ja esimene võttis naise ja suri lapseta,

²⁹There were therefore seven brothers. The first took a wife, and died childless.

³⁰ja teine,

³⁰The second took her as wife, and he died childless.

³¹ja kolmas võttis tema, ja nõndasamuti kõik seitse - nad ei jätnud lapsi järele ja surid.

³¹The third took her, and likewise the seven all left no children, and died.

³²Pärast suri ka naine.

³²Afterward the woman also died.

³³See naine - kelle naiseks nende seast ta saab ülestõusmisel? Ta on olnud naiseks ju neile seitsmele.'

³³Therefore in the resurrection whose wife of them will she be? For the seven had her as a wife.”

³⁴Ja Jeesus ütles neile: 'Selle ajastu lapsed võtavad naisi ja lähevad mehele,

³⁴Jesus said to them, “The children of this age marry, and are given in marriage.

³⁵aga kes on väärt arvatud saama tolle ajastu osaliseks ja surnuist üles tõusma, need ei võta naist ega lähe mehele,

³⁵ But those who are considered worthy to attain to that age and the resurrection from the dead, neither marry, nor are given in marriage.

³⁶sest nad ei saa enam surra, nad on ju inglite sarnased ja on Jumala pojad, olles ülestõusmise pojad.

³⁶ For they can’t die any more, for they are like the angels, and are children of God, being children of the resurrection.

³⁷Aga et surnud tõusevad üles, seda osutab ka Mooses kibuvitsapõõsa loos, kui ta nimetab Issandat Aabrahami Jumalaks ja Iisaki Jumalaks ja Jaakobi Jumalaks.

³⁷ But that the dead are raised, even Moses showed at the bush, when he called the Lord ‘The God of Abraham, the God of Isaac, and the God of Jacob.’ Exodus 3:6

³⁸Jumal ei ole surnute, vaid elavate Jumal, sest kõik elavad temale.'

³⁸ Now he is not the God of the dead, but of the living, for all are alive to him.”

³⁹Siis mõned kirjatundjaist kostsid: 'Õpetaja, sa rääkisid hästi',

³⁹Some of the scribes answered, “Teacher, you speak well.”

⁴⁰sest nad ei julgenud temalt enam midagi küsida.

⁴⁰They didn’t dare to ask him any more questions.

⁴¹Jeesus aga ütles neile: 'Kuidas nad ütlevad Messia olevat Taaveti poja?

⁴¹He said to them, “Why do they say that the Christ is David’s son?

⁴²Taavet ise ju ütleb Laulude raamatus: Issand ütles mu Issandale: Istu mu paremale käele,

⁴² David himself says in the book of Psalms, ‘The Lord said to my Lord, “Sit at my right hand,

⁴³kuni ma panen su vaenlased su jalgealuseks järiks!

⁴³ until I make your enemies the footstool of your feet.”’ Psalm 110:1

⁴⁴Seega nimetab Taavet teda Issandaks - kuidas on ta siis tema poeg?'

⁴⁴ “David therefore calls him Lord, so how is he his son?”

⁴⁵Aga Jeesus ütles kogu rahva kuuldes jüngritele:

⁴⁵In the hearing of all the people, he said to his disciples,

⁴⁶'Hoiduge kirjatundjatest, kes tahavad kõndida pikkades kuubedes ning armastavad teretusi turgudel ja esimesi istmeid sünagoogides ja esimesi kohti pidusöökidel,

⁴⁶ “Beware of the scribes, who like to walk in long robes, and love greetings in the marketplaces, the best seats in the synagogues, and the best places at feasts;

⁴⁷kes neelavad alla lesknaiste majad ja silmakirjaks venitavad palvetused pikaks! Nemad saavad seda rängema kohtuotsuse.'

⁴⁷ who devour widows’ houses, and for a pretense make long prayers: these will receive greater condemnation.”
