¹A stalo sa jedného z tých dní, keď učil ľud v chráme a zvestoval evanjelium, že si zastali k nemu najvyšší kňazi a zákonníci so staršími

¹And it came to pass, on one of those days, as he is teaching the people in the temple, and proclaiming good news, the chief priests and the scribes, with the elders, came upon [him],

²a povedali mu: Povedz nám, akou mocou a jakým právom toto činíš, alebo kto ti dal tú moc?

²and spake unto him, saying, `Tell us by what authority thou dost these things? or who is he that gave to thee this authority?`

³A on odpovedal a riekol im: I ja sa vás opýtam jednu vec, a povedzte mi:

³And he answering said unto them, `I will question you — I also — one thing, and tell me:

⁴Krst Jánov bol z neba a či z ľudí?

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

⁵A oni uvažovali medzi sebou a vraveli: Ak povieme: Z neba, povie nám: Prečo ste mu teda neuverili?

⁵And they reasoned with themselves, saying — `If we may say, From heaven, he will say, Wherefore, then, did ye not believe him?

⁶A keď povieme: Z ľudí, všetok ľud nás ukameňuje, lebo je presvedčený, že Ján bol prorok.

⁶and if we may say, From men, all the people will stone us, for they are having been persuaded John to be a prophet.`

⁷Tak odpovedali, že nevedia, odkiaľ.

⁷And they answered, that they knew not whence [it was],

⁸A Ježiš im povedal: Ani ja vám nepoviem, akou mocou toto činím.

⁸and Jesus said to them, `Neither do I say to you by what authority I do these things.`

⁹A začal hovoriť ľudu toto podobenstvo: Istý človek vysadil vinicu, prenajal ju vinárom a odcestoval na dlhé časy.

⁹And he began to speak unto the people this simile: `A certain man planted a vineyard, and gave it out to husbandmen, and went abroad for a long time,

¹⁰A svojím časom poslal k vinárom sluhu, aby mu dali z úrody vinice. Ale vinári ho nabili a poslali s prázdnym.

¹⁰and at the season he sent unto the husbandmen a servant, that from the fruit of the vineyard they may give to him, but the husbandmen having beat him, did send [him] away empty.

¹¹A poslal druhého sluhu. Oni však i toho nabili a zohaviac poslali s prázdnym.

¹¹`And he added to send another servant, and they that one also having beaten and dishonoured, did send away empty;

¹²Potom poslal i tretieho. Ale oni aj toho zranili a vyhodili von.

¹²and he added to send a third, and this one also, having wounded, they did cast out.

¹³Vtedy povedal pán vinice: Čo urobím? Pošlem svojho milovaného syna, dozaista, keď uvidia toho, budú sa hanbiť.

¹³`And the owner of the vineyard said, What shall I do? I will send my son — the beloved, perhaps having seen this one, they will do reverence;

¹⁴Ale vinári, keď ho videli, rozmýšľali medzi sebou a povedali si: Toto je dedič, poďte, zabime ho, aby bolo dedičstvo naše.

¹⁴and having seen him, the husbandmen reasoned among themselves, saying, This is the heir; come, we may kill him, that the inheritance may become ours;

¹⁵A vyhodili ho von z vinice a zabili. Čo im tedy urobí pán vinice?

¹⁵and having cast him outside of the vineyard, they killed [him]; what, then, shall the owner of the vineyard do to them?

¹⁶Prijde a zahladí tých vinárov a vinicu dá iným. A keď to počuli. povedali: Nech sa nestane!

¹⁶He will come, and destroy these husbandmen, and will give the vineyard to others.` And having heard, they said, `Let it not be!`

¹⁷Ale on pozrel na nich a povedal: A čože je tedy to, čo je napísané, že kameň, ktorí zavrhli stavitelia, učinený je hlavou uhla?

¹⁷and he, having looked upon them, said, `What, then, is this that hath been written: A stone that the builders rejected — this became head of a corner?

¹⁸Každý, kto padne na ten kameň, rozmliaždi sa, a na koho by on padol, toho rozdlávi.

¹⁸every one who hath fallen on that stone shall be broken, and on whom it may fall, it will crush him to pieces.`

¹⁹A najvyšší kňazi a zákonníci hľadali v tú hodinu vztiahnuť na neho ruky, ale sa báli ľudu. Lebo poznali, že na nich povedal to podobenstvo.

¹⁹And the chief priests and the scribes sought to lay hands on him in that hour, and they feared the people, for they knew that against them he spake this simile.

²⁰A striehnuc ho poslali k nemu úkladníkov, ktorí sa pokrytecky pretvárali za spravedlivých, aby ho pochytili v reči a potom vydali vrchnosti a moci vladárovej.

²⁰And, having watched [him], they sent forth liers in wait, feigning themselves to be righteous, that they might take hold of his word, to deliver him up to the rule and to the authority of the governor,

²¹A opýtali sa ho a riekli: Učiteľu, vieme, že dobre hovoríš a učíš a nehľadíš na osobu, ale jako je pravda, ceste Božej učíš;

²¹and they questioned him, saying, `Teacher, we have known that thou dost say and teach rightly, and dost not accept a person, but in truth the way of God dost teach;

²²či nám sluší dávať cisárovi daň a či nesluší?

²²Is it lawful to us to give tribute to Caesar or not?`

²³Ale on prezrel ich podvod a povedal im: Čo ma pokúšate?

²³And he, having perceived their craftiness, said unto them, `Why me do ye tempt?

²⁴Ukážte mi denár, čí má obraz a nápis? A oni povedali: Cisárov.

²⁴shew me a denary; of whom hath it an image and superscription?` and they answering said, `Of Caesar:`

²⁵A on im povedal: Tedy dajte, čo je cisárovo, cisárovi, a čo Božie, Bohu.

²⁵and he said to them, `Give back, therefore, the things of Caesar to Caesar, and the things of God to God;`

²⁶A nemohli ho lapiť za slovo pred ľudom a podiviac sa jeho odpovedi umĺkli.

²⁶and they were not able to take hold on his saying before the people, and having wondered at his answer, they were silent.

²⁷A pristúpili niektorí zo sadúceov, ktorí popierajú a hovoria, že nieto vzkriesenia, a opýtali sa ho a riekli:

²⁷And certain of the Sadducees, who are denying that there is a rising again, having come near, questioned him,

²⁸Učiteľu, Mojžiš nám napísal: Keby zomrel niekomu brat, ktorý má ženu, a zomrel by bezdetný, aby si vzal jeho brat jeho ženu, a vzbudil svojmu bratovi semeno.

²⁸saying, `Teacher, Moses wrote to us, If any one`s brother may die, having a wife, and he may die childless — that his brother may take the wife, and may raise up seed to his brother.

²⁹Nuž bolo sedem bratov. A prvý oženiac sa zomrel bezdetný,

²⁹`There were, then, seven brothers, and the first having taken a wife, died childless,

³⁰a tak si vzal ženu druhý, ale i ten zomrel bezdetný.

³⁰and the second took the wife, and he died childless,

³¹I tretí si ju vzal, a tak podobne i všetci siedmi a nezanechali detí a pomreli.

³¹and the third took her, and in like manner also the seven — they left not children, and they died;

³²Naposledy po všetkých zomrela i žena.

³²and last of all died also the woman:

³³Pri zmŕtvychvstaní teda ktorého z nich bude ženou? Lebo ju mali všetci siedmi za ženu.

³³in the rising again, then, of which of them doth she become wife? — for the seven had her as wife.`

³⁴A Ježiš im povedal: Synovia tohoto veku sa ženia a vydávajú sa;

³⁴And Jesus answering said to them, `The sons of this age do marry and are given in marriage,

³⁵ale tí, ktorí budú uznaní za hodných dojsť tamtoho veku a vzkriesenia z mŕtvych, nebudú sa ani ženiť ani vydávať,

³⁵but those accounted worthy to obtain that age, and the rising again that is out of the dead, neither marry, nor are they given in marriage;

³⁶lebo ani zomrieť nebudú viacej môcť, lebo budú rovní anjelom a budú synmi Božími, pretože budú synmi vzkriesenia.

³⁶for neither are they able to die any more — for they are like messengers — and they are sons of God, being sons of the rising again.

³⁷A že mŕtvi vstávajú z mŕtvych, to aj Mojžiš ukázal pri onom kri, keď nazýva Pána Bohom Abrahámovým, Bohom Izákovým a Bohom Jakobovým.

³⁷`And that the dead are raised, even Moses shewed at the Bush, since he doth call the Lord, the God of Abraham, and the God of Isaac, and the God of Jacob;

³⁸Nuž a Bôh nie je Bohom mŕtvych, ale živých, lebo jemu všetci žijú.

³⁸and He is not a God of dead men, but of living, for all live to Him.`

³⁹Vtedy odpovedali niektorí zo zákonníkov a riekli: Učiteľu, dobre si povedal.

³⁹And certain of the scribes answering said, `Teacher, thou didst say well;`

⁴⁰A viacej sa ho neopovážili nič opytovať.

⁴⁰and no more durst they question him anything.

⁴¹A povedal im: Ako to hovoria, že Kristus je synom Dávidovým?

⁴¹And he said unto them, `How do they say the Christ to be son of David,

⁴²Veď aj sám Dávid hovorí v knihe žalmov: Riekol Pán môjmu Pánovi: Seď po mojej pravici,

⁴²and David himself saith in the Book of Psalms, The Lord said to my lord, Sit thou on my right hand,

⁴³dokiaľ nepoložím tvojich nepriateľov za podnož tvojich nôh!

⁴³till I shall make thine enemies thy footstool;

⁴⁴Dávid ho tedy nazýva Pánom, a jakože je potom jeho synom?

⁴⁴David, then, doth call him lord, and how is he his son?`

⁴⁵A keď počúval všetok ľud, povedal svojim učeníkom:

⁴⁵And, all the people hearing, he said to his disciples,

⁴⁶Vystríhajte sa zákonníkov, ktorí chcú chodiť v dlhom krásnom rúchu a milujú pozdravovania na trhoch a prvé stolice v synagógach a prvé miesta pri večeriach;

⁴⁶`Take heed of the scribes, who are wishing to walk in long robes, and are loving salutations in the markets, and first seats in the synagogues, and first couches in the suppers,

⁴⁷ktorí pohlcujú domy vdôv, a to pod zámienkou dlhej modlitby. Tým sa dostane tým prísnejšieho odsúdenia.

⁴⁷who devour the houses of the widows, and for a pretence make long prayers, these shall receive more abundant judgment.`
