1 И҆ бы́сть во є҆ди́нъ ѿ дні́й ѻ҆́нѣхъ, ᲂу҆ча́щꙋ є҆мꙋ̀ лю́ди въ це́ркви и҆ бл҃говѣствꙋ́ющꙋ, прїидо́ша свѧще́нницы и҆ кни́жницы со ста̑рцы
1 Y ACONTECIÓ un día, que enseñando él al pueblo en el templo, y anunciando el evangelio, llegáronse los príncipes de los sacerdotes y los escribas, con los ancianos;
1 On one of those days, as he was teaching the people in the temple and preaching the Good News, the priests and scribes came to him with the elders.
2 и҆ рѣ́ша къ немꙋ̀, глаго́люще: рцы̀ на́мъ, ко́ею ѡ҆́бластїю сїѧ̑ твори́ши, и҆лѝ кто̀ є҆́сть да́вый тебѣ̀ вла́сть сїю̀;
2 Y le hablaron, diciendo: Dinos: ¿con qué potestad haces estas cosas? ¿ó quién es el que te ha dado esta potestad?
2 They asked him, “Tell us: by what authority do you do these things? Or who is giving you this authority?”
3 Ѿвѣща́въ же речѐ къ ни̑мъ: вопрошꙋ́ вы и҆ а҆́зъ є҆ди́нагѡ словесѐ, и҆ рцы́те мѝ:
3 Respondiendo entonces Jesús, les dijo: Os preguntaré yo también una palabra; respondedme:
3 He answered them, “I also will ask you one question. Tell me:
4 креще́нїе і҆ѡа́нново съ нб҃се́ ли бѣ̀, и҆лѝ ѿ человѣ̑къ;
4 El bautismo de Juan, ¿era del cielo, ó de los hombres?
4 the baptism of John, was it from heaven, or from men?”
5 Ѻ҆ни́ же помышлѧ́хꙋ въ себѣ̀, глаго́люще, ꙗ҆́кѡ а҆́ще рече́мъ: съ нб҃сѐ, рече́тъ: почто̀ ᲂу҆̀бо не вѣ́ровасте є҆мꙋ̀;
5 Mas ellos pensaban dentro de sí, diciendo: Si dijéremos, del cielo, dirá: ¿Por qué, pues, no le creísteis?
5 They reasoned with themselves, saying, “If we say, ‘From heaven,’ he will say, ‘Why didn’t you believe him?’
6 а҆́ще ли же рече́мъ: ѿ человѣ̑къ, всѝ лю́дїе ка́менїемъ побїю́тъ ны̀: и҆звѣ́стно бо бѣ̀ ѡ҆ і҆ѡа́ннѣ, ꙗ҆́кѡ прⷪ҇ро́къ бѣ̀.
6 Y si dijéremos, de los hombres, todo el pueblo nos apedreará: porque están ciertos que Juan era profeta.
6 But if we say, ‘From men,’ all the people will stone us, for they are persuaded that John was a prophet.”
7 И҆ ѿвѣща́ша: не вѣ́мы ѿкꙋ́дꙋ.
7 Y respondieron que no sabían de dónde.
7 They answered that they didn’t know where it was from.
8 І҆и҃съ же речѐ и҆̀мъ: ни а҆́зъ гл҃ю ва́мъ, ко́ею ѡ҆́бластїю сїѧ̑ творю̀.
8 Entonces Jesús les dijo: Ni yo os digo con qué potestad hago estas cosas.
8 Jesus said to them, “Neither will I tell you by what authority I do these things.”
9 Нача́тъ же къ лю́демъ гл҃ати при́тчꙋ сїю̀: человѣ́къ нѣ́кїй насадѝ вїногра́дъ, и҆ вдадѐ є҆го̀ дѣ́лателємъ, и҆ ѿи́де на лѣ̑та мнѡ́га:
9 Y comenzó á decir al pueblo esta parábola: Un hombre plantó una viña, y arrendóla á labradores, y se ausentó por mucho tiempo.
9 He began to tell the people this parable: “A man planted a vineyard and rented it out to some farmers, and went into another country for a long time.
10 и҆ во вре́мѧ посла̀ къ дѣ́лателємъ раба̀, да ѿ плода̀ вїногра́да дадꙋ́тъ є҆мꙋ̀: дѣ́латєли же би́вше є҆го̀, посла́ша тща̀.
10 Y al tiempo, envió un siervo á los labradores, para que le diesen del fruto de la viña; mas los labradores le hirieron, y enviaron vacío.
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.
11 И҆ приложѝ посла́ти дрꙋга́го раба̀: ѻ҆ни́ же и҆ того̀ би́вше и҆ досади́вше (є҆мꙋ̀), посла́ша тща̀.
11 Y volvió á enviar otro siervo; mas ellos á éste también, herido y afrentado, le enviaron vacío.
11 He sent yet another servant, and they also beat him and treated him shamefully, and sent him away empty.
12 И҆ приложѝ посла́ти тре́тїѧго: ѻ҆ни́ же и҆ того̀ ᲂу҆ѧ́звльше и҆згна́ша.
12 Y volvió á enviar al tercer siervo; mas ellos también á éste echaron herido.
12 He sent yet a third, and they also wounded him and threw him out.
13 Рече́ же господи́нъ вїногра́да: что̀ сотворю̀; послю̀ сы́на моего̀ возлю́бленнаго, є҆да̀ ка́кѡ, є҆го̀ ви́дѣвше, ᲂу҆срамѧ́тсѧ.
13 Entonces el señor de la viña dijo: ¿Qué haré? Enviaré mi hijo amado: quizás cuando á éste vieren, tendrán respeto.
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.’
14 Ви́дѣвше же є҆го̀ дѣ́лателє, мы́шлѧхꙋ въ себѣ̀, глаго́люще: се́й є҆́сть наслѣ́дникъ: прїиди́те, ᲂу҆бїе́мъ є҆го̀, да на́ше бꙋ́детъ достоѧ́нїе.
14 Mas los labradores, viéndole, pensaron entre sí, diciendo: Este es el heredero; venid, matémosle para que la heredad sea nuestra.
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.’
15 И҆ и҆зве́дше є҆го̀ во́нъ и҆з̾ вїногра́да, ᲂу҆би́ша. Что̀ ᲂу҆̀бо сотвори́тъ и҆̀мъ господи́нъ вїногра́да;
15 Y echáronle fuera de la viña, y le mataron. ¿Qué pues, les hará el señor de la viña?
15 Then they threw him out of the vineyard and killed him. What therefore will the lord of the vineyard do to them?
16 Прїи́детъ и҆ погꙋби́тъ дѣ́латєли сїѧ̑ и҆ вда́стъ вїногра́дъ и҆нѣ̑мъ. Слы́шавше же реко́ша: да не бꙋ́детъ.
16 Vendrá, y destruirá á estos labradores, y dará su viña á otros. Y como ellos lo oyeron, dijeron: ¡Dios nos libre!
16 He will come and destroy these farmers, and will give the vineyard to others.” When they heard that, they said, “May that never be!”
17 Ѻ҆́нъ же воззрѣ́въ на ни́хъ, речѐ: что̀ ᲂу҆̀бо пи́саное сїѐ: ка́мень, є҆гѡ́же небрего́ша зи́ждꙋщїи, се́й бы́сть во главꙋ̀ ᲂу҆́гла;
17 Mas él mirándolos, dice: ¿Qué pues es lo que está escrito: La piedra que condenaron los edificadores, ésta fué por cabeza de esquina?
17 But he looked at them and said, “Then what is this that is written, ‘The stone which the builders rejected was made the chief cornerstone’?
18 всѧ́къ пады́й на ка́мени то́мъ, сокрꙋши́тсѧ: а҆ на не́мже паде́тъ, стры́етъ є҆го̀.
18 Cualquiera que cayere sobre aquella piedra, será quebrantado; mas sobre el que la piedra cayere, le desmenuzará.
18 Everyone who falls on that stone will be broken to pieces, but it will crush whomever it falls on to dust.”
19 И҆ взыска́ша а҆рхїере́є и҆ кни́жницы возложи́ти на́нь рꙋ́цѣ въ то́й ча́съ и҆ ᲂу҆боѧ́шасѧ наро́да: разꙋмѣ́ша бо, ꙗ҆́кѡ къ ни̑мъ при́тчꙋ сїю̀ речѐ.
19 Y procuraban los príncipes de los sacerdotes y los escribas echarle mano en aquella hora, porque entendieron que contra ellos había dicho esta parábola: mas temieron al pueblo.
19 The 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.
20 И҆ наблю́дше посла́ша ла́ѧтєли, притворѧ́ющихъ себѐ пра́ведники бы́ти: да и҆́мꙋтъ є҆го̀ въ словесѝ, во є҆́же преда́ти є҆го̀ нача́льствꙋ и҆ ѡ҆́бласти и҆ге́мѡновѣ.
20 Y acechándole enviaron espías que se simulasen justos, para sorprenderle en palabras, para que le entregasen al principado y á la potestad del presidente.
20 They 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.
21 И҆ вопроси́ша є҆го̀, глаго́люще: ᲂу҆чт҃лю, вѣ́мы, ꙗ҆́кѡ пра́вѡ гл҃еши и҆ ᲂу҆чи́ши, и҆ не на лица̑ зри́ши, но вои́стиннꙋ пꙋтѝ бж҃їю ᲂу҆чи́ши:
21 Los cuales le preguntaron, diciendo: Maestro, sabemos que dices y enseñas bien, y que no tienes respeto á persona; antes enseñas el camino de Dios con verdad.
21 They 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.
22 досто́итъ ли на́мъ ке́сареви да́нь даѧ́ти, и҆лѝ нѝ;
22 ¿Nos es lícito dar tributo á César, ó no?
22 Is it lawful for us to pay taxes to Caesar, or not?”
23 Разꙋмѣ́въ же и҆́хъ лꙋка́вство, речѐ къ ни̑мъ: что́ мѧ и҆скꙋша́ете;
23 Mas él, entendiendo la astucia de ellos, les dijo: ¿Por qué me tentáis?
23 But he perceived their craftiness, and said to them, “Why do you test me?
24 покажи́те мѝ ца́тꙋ: чі́й и҆́мать ѡ҆́бразъ и҆ надписа́нїе; Ѿвѣща́вше же реко́ша: ке́саревъ.
24 Mostradme la moneda. ¿De quién tiene la imagen y la inscripción? Y respondiendo dijeron: De César.
24 Show me a denarius. Whose image and inscription are on it?” They answered, “Caesar’s.”
25 Ѻ҆́нъ же речѐ и҆̀мъ: воздади́те ᲂу҆̀бо, ꙗ҆̀же ке́сарєва, ке́сареви, и҆ ꙗ҆̀же бж҃їѧ, бг҃ови.
25 Entonces les dijo: Pues dad á César lo que es de César; y lo que es de Dios, á Dios.
25 He said to them, “Then give to Caesar the things that are Caesar’s, and to God the things that are God’s.”
26 И҆ не мого́ша зазрѣ́ти гл҃го́ла є҆гѡ̀ пред̾ людьмѝ: и҆ диви́шасѧ ѡ҆ ѿвѣ́тѣ є҆гѡ̀ и҆ ᲂу҆молча́ша.
26 Y no pudieron reprender sus palabras delante del pueblo: antes maravillados de su respuesta, callaron.
26 They weren’t able to trap him in his words before the people. They marveled at his answer and were silent.
27 Пристꙋпи́ша же нѣ́цыи ѿ саддꙋкє́й, глаго́лющїи воскрⷭ҇нїю не бы́ти, вопроша́хꙋ є҆го̀,
27 Y llegándose unos de los Saduceos, los cuales niegan haber resurrección, le preguntaron,
27 Some of the Sadducees came to him, those who deny that there is a resurrection.
28 глаго́люще: ᲂу҆чт҃лю, мѡѷсе́й написа̀ на́мъ: а҆́ще комꙋ̀ бра́тъ ᲂу҆́мретъ и҆мы́й женꙋ̀, и҆ то́й безча́денъ ᲂу҆́мретъ, да бра́тъ є҆гѡ̀ по́йметъ женꙋ̀ и҆ возста́витъ сѣ́мѧ бра́тꙋ своемꙋ̀:
28 Diciendo: Maestro, Moisés nos escribió: Si el hermano de alguno muriere teniendo mujer, y muriere sin hijos, que su hermano tome la mujer, y levante simiente á su hermano.
28 They 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.
29 се́дмь ᲂу҆̀бо бра́тїй бѣ̀: и҆ пе́рвый поѧ́тъ женꙋ̀, ᲂу҆́мре безча́денъ:
29 Fueron, pues, siete hermanos: y el primero tomó mujer, y murió sin hijos.
29 There were therefore seven brothers. The first took a wife, and died childless.
30 и҆ поѧ́тъ вторы́й женꙋ̀, и҆ то́й ᲂу҆́мре безча́денъ:
30 Y la tomó el segundo, el cual también murió sin hijos.
30 The second took her as wife, and he died childless.
31 и҆ тре́тїй поѧ́тъ ю҆̀: та́кожде же и҆ всѝ се́дмь: и҆ не ѡ҆ста́виша ча̑дъ и҆ ᲂу҆мро́ша:
31 Y la tomó el tercero: asimismo también todos siete: y murieron sin dejar prole.
31 The third took her, and likewise the seven all left no children, and died.
32 по́слѣжде же всѣ́хъ ᲂу҆́мре и҆ жена̀:
32 Y á la postre de todos murió también la mujer.
32 Afterward the woman also died.
33 въ воскрⷭ҇нїе ᲂу҆̀бо, кото́рагѡ и҆́хъ бꙋ́детъ жена̀; се́дмь бо и҆мѣ́ша ю҆̀ женꙋ̀.
33 En la resurrección, pues, ¿mujer de cuál de ellos será? porque los siete la tuvieron por mujer.
33 Therefore in the resurrection whose wife of them will she be? For the seven had her as a wife.”
34 И҆ ѿвѣща́въ речѐ и҆̀мъ і҆и҃съ: сы́нове вѣ́ка сегѡ̀ же́нѧтсѧ и҆ посѧга́ютъ:
34 Entonces respondiendo Jesús, les dijo: Los hijos de este siglo se casan, y son dados en casamiento:
34 Jesus said to them, “The children of this age marry and are given in marriage.
35 а҆ сподо́бльшїисѧ вѣ́къ ѡ҆́нъ ᲂу҆лꙋчи́ти и҆ воскрⷭ҇нїе, є҆́же ѿ ме́ртвыхъ, ни же́нѧтсѧ, ни посѧга́ютъ:
35 Mas los que fueren tenidos por dignos de aquel siglo y de la resurrección de los muertos, ni se casan, ni son dados en casamiento:
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.
36 ни ᲂу҆мре́ти бо ктомꙋ̀ мо́гꙋтъ: ра́вни бо сꙋ́ть а҆́гг҃лѡмъ и҆ сн҃ове сꙋ́ть бж҃їи, воскрⷭ҇нїѧ сн҃ове сꙋ́ще:
36 Porque no pueden ya más morir: porque son iguales á los ángeles, y son hijos de Dios, cuando son hijos de la resurrección.
36 For they can’t die any more, for they are like the angels and are children of God, being children of the resurrection.
37 а҆ ꙗ҆́кѡ востаю́тъ ме́ртвїи, и҆ мѡѷсе́й сказа̀ при кꙋпинѣ̀, ꙗ҆́коже глаго́летъ гдⷭ҇а бг҃а а҆враа́млѧ и҆ бг҃а і҆саа́кова и҆ бг҃а і҆а́кѡвлѧ:
37 Y que los muertos hayan de resucitar, aun Moisés lo enseñó en el [pasaje de] la zarza, cuando llama al Señor: Dios de Abraham, y Dios de Isaac, y Dios de Jacob.
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.’
38 бг҃ъ же нѣ́сть ме́ртвыхъ, но живы́хъ: вси́ бо томꙋ̀ жи́ви сꙋ́ть.
38 Porque Dios no es [Dios] de muertos, mas de vivos: porque todos viven á él.
38 Now he is not the God of the dead, but of the living, for all are alive to him.”
39 Ѿвѣща́вше же нѣ́цыи ѿ кни̑жникъ реко́ша: ᲂу҆чт҃лю, до́брѣ ре́клъ є҆сѝ.
39 Y respondiéndole unos de los escribas, dijeron: Maestro, bien has dicho.
39 Some of the scribes answered, “Teacher, you speak well.”
40 Ктомꙋ́ же не смѣ́ѧхꙋ є҆го̀ вопроси́ти ничесѡ́же. Рече́ же къ ни̑мъ:
40 Y no osaron más preguntarle algo.
40 They didn’t dare to ask him any more questions.
41 ка́кѡ глаго́лютъ хрⷭ҇та̀ сн҃а дв҃дова бы́ти;
41 Y él les dijo: ¿Cómo dicen que el Cristo es hijo de David?
41 He said to them, “Why do they say that the Christ is David’s son?
42 Са́мъ бо дв҃дъ глаго́летъ въ кни́зѣ ѱало́мстѣй: речѐ гдⷭ҇ь гдⷭ҇еви моемꙋ̀: сѣдѝ ѡ҆деснꙋ́ю менє̀,
42 Y el mismo David dice en el libro de los Salmos: Dijo el Señor á mi Señor: Siéntate á mi diestra,
42 David himself says in the book of Psalms, ‘The Lord said to my Lord, “Sit at my right hand,
43 до́ндеже положꙋ̀ врагѝ твоѧ̑ подно́жїе нога́ма твои́ма.
43 Entre tanto que pongo tus enemigos por estrado de tus pies.
43 until I make your enemies the footstool of your feet.”’
44 Дв҃дъ ᲂу҆̀бо гдⷭ҇а є҆го̀ нарица́етъ, и҆ ка́кѡ сн҃ъ є҆мꙋ̀ є҆́сть;
44 Así que David le llama Señor: ¿cómo pues es su hijo?
44 “David therefore calls him Lord, so how is he his son?”
45 Слы́шащымъ же всѣ̑мъ лю́демъ, речѐ ᲂу҆чн҃кѡ́мъ свои̑мъ:
45 Y oyéndole todo el pueblo, dijo á sus discípulos:
45 In the hearing of all the people, he said to his disciples,
46 внемли́те себѣ̀ ѿ кни̑жникъ хотѧ́щихъ ходи́ти во ѻ҆де́ждахъ и҆ лю́бѧщихъ цѣлова̑нїѧ на то́ржищихъ и҆ предсѣда̑нїѧ на со́нмищихъ и҆ преждевозлежа̑нїѧ на ве́черѧхъ:
46 Guardaos de los escribas, que quieren andar con ropas largas, y aman las salutaciones en las plazas, y las primeras sillas en las sinagogas, y los primeros asientos en las cenas;
46 “Beware of those 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;
47 и҆̀же снѣда́ютъ до́мы вдови́цъ и҆ вино́ю дале́че мо́лѧтсѧ: сі́и прїи́мꙋтъ ли́шше ѡ҆сꙋжде́нїе.
47 Que devoran las casas de las viudas, poniendo por pretexto la larga oración: éstos recibirán mayor condenación.
47 who devour widows’ houses, and for a pretense make long prayers. These will receive greater condemnation.”

  3. Quotes verse 20:35 Augustine of Hippo, The City of God (Book XV, Chapters 17–19)

    But Enos means man in so restricted a sense, that Hebrew linguists tell us it cannot be applied to woman: it is the equivalent of the "child of the resurrection," when they neither marry nor are given in marriage. For there shall be no generation in that place to which regeneration shall have brought us.

  4. Quotes verse 20:36 John Chrysostom, Homilies on the Gospel of Matthew (Homily LXX)

    "For in the resurrection," saith He, "they neither marry, nor are given in marriage, but are as angels of God in Heaven." But Luke saith, "As Sons of God." If then they marry not, the question is vain.
