1 وَفِي أَحَدِ تِلْكَ ٱلْأَيَّامِ إِذْ كَانَ يُعَلِّمُ ٱلشَّعْبَ فِي ٱلْهَيْكَلِ وَيُبَشِّرُ، وَقَفَ رُؤَسَاءُ ٱلْكَهَنَةِ وَٱلْكَتَبَةُ مَعَ ٱلشُّيُوخِ،
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 وَكَلَّمُوُه قَائِلِينَ: «قُلْ لَنَا: بِأَيِّ سُلْطَانٍ تَفْعَلُ هَذَا؟ أَوْ مَنْ هُوَ ٱلَّذِي أَعْطَاكَ هَذَا ٱلسُّلْطَانَ؟».
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 فَأَجَابَ وَقَالَ لَهُمْ: «وَأَنَا أَيْضًا أَسْأَلُكُمْ كَلِمَةً وَاحِدَةً، فَقُولُوا لِي:
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 مَعْمُودِيَّةُ يُوحَنَّا: مِنَ ٱلسَّمَاءِ كَانَتْ أَمْ مِنَ ٱلنَّاسِ؟».
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 فَتَآمَرُوا فِيمَا بَيْنَهُمْ قَائِلِينَ: «إِنْ قُلْنَا: مِنَ ٱلسَّمَاءِ، يَقُولُ: فَلِمَاذَا لَمْ تُؤْمِنُوا بِهِ؟
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 وَإِنْ قُلْنَا: مِنَ ٱلنَّاسِ، فَجَمِيعُ ٱلشَّعْبِ يَرْجُمُونَنَا، لِأَنَّهُمْ وَاثِقُونَ بِأَنَّ يُوحَنَّا نَبِيٌّ».
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 فَأَجَابُوا أَنَّهُمْ لَا يَعْلَمُونَ مِنْ أَيْنَ.
7 Y respondieron que no sabían de dónde.
7 They answered that they didn’t know where it was from.
8 فَقَالَ لَهُمْ يَسُوعُ: «وَلَا أَنَا أَقُولُ لَكُمْ بِأَيِّ سُلْطَانٍ أَفْعَلُ هَذَا».
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 وَٱبْتَدَأَ يَقُولُ لِلشَّعْبِ هَذَا ٱلْمَثَلَ: «إِنْسَانٌ غَرَسَ كَرْمًا وَسَلَّمَهُ إِلَى كَرَّامِينَ وَسَافَرَ زَمَانًا طَوِيلًا.
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 وَفِي ٱلْوَقْتِ أَرْسَلَ إِلَى ٱلْكَرَّامِينَ عَبْدًا لِكَيْ يُعْطُوهُ مِنْ ثَمَرِ ٱلْكَرْمِ، فَجَلَدَهُ ٱلْكَرَّامُونَ، وَأَرْسَلُوهُ فَارِغًا.
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 فَعَادَ وَأَرْسَلَ عَبْدًا آخَرَ، فَجَلَدُوا ذَلِكَ أَيْضًا وَأَهَانُوهُ، وَأَرْسَلُوهُ فَارِغًا.
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 ثُمَّ عَادَ فَأَرْسَلَ ثَالِثًا، فَجَرَّحُوا هَذَا أَيْضًا وَأَخْرَجُوهُ.
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 فَقَالَ صَاحِبُ ٱلْكَرْمِ: مَاذَا أَفْعَلُ؟ أُرْسِلُ ٱبْنِي ٱلْحَبِيبَ، لَعَلَّهُمْ إِذَا رَأَوْهُ يَهَابُونَ!
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 فَلَمَّا رَآهُ ٱلْكَرَّامُونَ تَآمَرُوا فِيمَا بَيْنَهُمْ قَائِلِينَ: هَذَا هُوَ ٱلْوَارِثُ! هَلُمُّوا نَقْتُلْهُ لِكَيْ يَصِيرَ لَنَا ٱلْمِيرَاثُ!
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 فَأَخْرَجُوهُ خَارِجَ ٱلْكَرْمِ وَقَتَلُوهُ. فَمَاذَا يَفْعَلُ بِهِمْ صَاحِبُ ٱلْكَرْمِ؟
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 يَأْتِي وَيُهْلِكُ هَؤُلَاءِ ٱلْكَرَّامِينَ وَيُعْطِي ٱلْكَرْمَ لِآخَرِينَ». فَلَمَّا سَمِعُوا قَالُوا: «حَاشَا!».
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 فَنَظَرَ إِلَيْهِمْ وَقَالَ: «إِذًا مَا هُوَ هَذَا ٱلْمَكْتُوبُ: ٱلْحَجَرُ ٱلَّذِي رَفَضَهُ ٱلْبَنَّاؤُونَ هُوَ قَدْ صَارَ رَأْسَ ٱلزَّاوِيَةِ؟
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 كُلُّ مَنْ يَسْقُطُ عَلَى ذَلِكَ ٱلْحَجَرِ يَتَرَضَّضُ، وَمَنْ سَقَطَ هُوَ عَلَيْهِ يَسْحَقُهُ!».
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 فَطَلَبَ رُؤَسَاءُ ٱلْكَهَنَةِ وَٱلْكَتَبَةُ أَنْ يُلْقُوا ٱلْأَيَادِيَ عَلَيْهِ فِي تِلْكَ ٱلسَّاعَةِ، وَلَكِنَّهُمْ خَافُوا ٱلشَّعْبَ، لِأَنَّهُمْ عَرَفُوا أَنَّهُ قَالَ هَذَا ٱلْمَثَلَ عَلَيْهِمْ.
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 فَرَاقَبُوهُ وَأَرْسَلُوا جَوَاسِيسَ يَتَرَاءَوْنَ أَنَّهُمْ أَبْرَارٌ لِكَيْ يُمْسِكُوهُ بِكَلِمَةٍ، حَتَّى يُسَلِّمُوهُ إِلَى حُكْمِ ٱلْوَالِي وَسُلْطَانِهِ.
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 فَسَأَلُوهُ قَائِلِينَ: «يَا مُعَلِّمُ، نَعْلَمُ أَنَّكَ بِٱلِٱسْتِقَامَةِ تَتَكَلَّمُ وَتُعَلِّمُ، وَلَا تَقْبَلُ ٱلْوُجُوهَ، بَلْ بِٱلْحَقِّ تُعَلِّمُ طَرِيقَ ٱللهِ.
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 أَيَجُوزُ لَنَا أَنْ نُعْطِيَ جِزْيَةً لِقَيْصَرَ أَمْ لَا؟».
22 ¿Nos es lícito dar tributo á César, ó no?
22 Is it lawful for us to pay taxes to Caesar, or not?”
23 فَشَعَرَ بِمَكْرِهِمْ وَقَالَ لَهُمْ: «لِمَاذَا تُجَرِّبُونَنِي؟
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 أَرُونِي دِينَارًا. لِمَنِ ٱلصُّورَةُ وَٱلْكِتَابَةُ؟». فَأَجَابُوا وَقَالوُا: «لِقَيْصَرَ».
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 فَقَالَ لَهُمْ: «أَعْطُوا إِذًا مَا لِقَيْصَرَ لِقَيْصَرَ وَمَا لِلهِ للهِ».
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 فَلَمْ يَقْدِرُوا أَنْ يُمْسِكُوهُ بِكَلِمَةٍ قُدَّامَ ٱلشَّعْبِ، وَتَعَجَّبُوا مِنْ جَوَابِهِ وَسَكَتُوا.
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 وَحَضَرَ قَوْمٌ مِنَ ٱلصَّدُّوقِيِّينَ، ٱلَّذِينَ يُقَاوِمُونَ أَمْرَ ٱلْقِيَامَةِ، وَسَأَلُوهُ
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 قَائِلِيِنَ: «يَا مُعَلِّمُ، كَتَبَ لَنَا مُوسَى: إِنْ مَاتَ لِأَحَدٍ أَخٌ وَلَهُ ٱمْرَأَةٌ، وَمَاتَ بِغَيْرِ وَلَدٍ، يَأْخُذُ أَخُوهُ ٱلْمَرْأَةَ وَيُقِيمُ نَسْلًا لِأَخِيهِ.
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 فَكَانَ سَبْعَةُ إِخْوَةٍ. وَأَخَذَ ٱلْأَوَّلُ ٱمْرَأَةً وَمَاتَ بِغَيْرِ وَلَدٍ،
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 فَأَخَذَ ٱلثَّانِي ٱلْمَرْأَةَ وَمَاتَ بِغَيْرِ وَلَدٍ،
30 Y la tomó el segundo, el cual también murió sin hijos.
30 The second took her as wife, and he died childless.
31 ثُمَّ أَخَذَهَا ٱلثَّالِثُ، وَهَكَذَا ٱلسَّبْعَةُ. وَلَمْ يَتْرُكُوا وَلَدًا وَمَاتُوا.
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 وَآخِرَ ٱلْكُلِّ مَاتَتِ ٱلْمَرْأَةُ أَيْضًا.
32 Y á la postre de todos murió también la mujer.
32 Afterward the woman also died.
33 فَفِي ٱلْقِيَامَةِ، لِمَنْ مِنْهُمْ تَكُونُ زَوْجَةً؟ لِأَنَّهَا كَانَتْ زَوْجَةً لِلسَّبْعَةِ!».
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 فَأَجَابَ وَقَالَ لَهُمْ يَسُوعُ: «أَبْنَاءُ هَذَا ٱلدَّهْرِ يُزَوِّجُونَ وَيُزَوَّجُونَ،
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 وَلَكِنَّ ٱلَّذِينَ حُسِبُوا أَهْلًا لِلْحُصُولِ عَلَى ذَلِكَ ٱلدَّهْرِ وَٱلْقِيَامَةِ مِنَ ٱلْأَمْوَاتِ، لَا يُزَوِّجُونَ وَلَا يُزَوَّجُونَ،
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 إِذْ لَا يَسْتَطِيعُونَ أَنْ يَمُوتُوا أَيْضًا، لِأَنَّهُمْ مِثْلُ ٱلْمَلَائِكَةِ، وَهُمْ أَبْنَاءُ ٱللهِ، إِذْ هُمْ أَبْنَاءُ ٱلْقِيَامَةِ.
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 وَأَمَّا أَنَّ ٱلْمَوْتَى يَقُومُونَ، فَقَدْ دَلَّ عَلَيْهِ مُوسَى أَيْضًا فِي أَمْرِ ٱلْعُلَّيْقَةِ كَمَا يَقُولُ: اَلرَّبُّ إِلَهُ إِبْرَاهِيمَ وَإِلَهُ إِسْحَاقَ وَإِلَهُ يَعْقُوبَ.
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 وَلَيْسَ هُوَ إِلَهَ أَمْوَاتٍ بَلْ إِلَهُ أَحْيَاءٍ، لِأَنَّ ٱلْجَمِيعَ عِنْدَهُ أَحْيَاءٌ».
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 فَأجَابَ قَوْمٌ مِنَ ٱلْكَتَبَةِ وَقَالوا: «يَا مُعَلِّمُ، حَسَنًا قُلْتَ!».
39 Y respondiéndole unos de los escribas, dijeron: Maestro, bien has dicho.
39 Some of the scribes answered, “Teacher, you speak well.”
40 وَلَمْ يَتَجَاسَرُوا أَيْضًا أَنْ يَسْأَلُوهُ عَنْ شَيْءٍ.
40 Y no osaron más preguntarle algo.
40 They didn’t dare to ask him any more questions.
41 وَقَالَ لَهُمْ: «كَيْفَ يَقُولُونَ إِنَّ ٱلْمَسِيحَ ٱبْنُ دَاوُدَ؟
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 وَدَاوُدُ نَفْسُهُ يَقُولُ فِي كِتَابِ ٱلْمَزَامِيرِ: قَالَ ٱلرَّبُّ لِرَبِّي: ٱجْلِسْ عَنْ يَمِينِي
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 حَتَّى أَضَعَ أَعْدَاءَكَ مَوْطِئًا لِقَدَمَيْكَ.
43 Entre tanto que pongo tus enemigos por estrado de tus pies.
43 until I make your enemies the footstool of your feet.”’
44 فَإِذًا دَاوُدُ يَدْعُوهُ رَبًّا. فَكَيْفَ يَكُونُ ٱبْنَهُ؟».
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 وَفِيمَا كَانَ جَمِيعُ ٱلشَّعْبِ يَسْمَعُونَ قَالَ لِتَلَامِيذِهِ:
45 Y oyéndole todo el pueblo, dijo á sus discípulos:
45 In the hearing of all the people, he said to his disciples,
46 «ٱحْذَرُوا مِنَ ٱلْكَتَبَةِ ٱلَّذِينَ يَرْغَبُونَ ٱلْمَشْيَ بِٱلطَّيَالِسَةِ، وَيُحِبُّونَ ٱلتَّحِيَّاتِ فِي ٱلْأَسْوَاقِ، وَٱلْمَجَالِسَ ٱلْأُولَى فِي ٱلْمَجَامِعِ، وَٱلْمُتَّكَآتِ ٱلْأُولَى فِي ٱلْوَلَائِمِ.
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 اَلَّذِينَ يَأْكُلُونَ بُيُوتَ ٱلْأَرَامِلِ، وَلِعِلَّةٍ يُطِيلُونَ ٱلصَّلَوَاتِ. هَؤُلَاءِ يَأْخُذُونَ دَيْنُونَةً أَعْظَمَ!».
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.”

For there shall be no generation in that place to which regeneration shall have brought us.
