Marcos 12

And he began to be speaking unto them, in parables,—A man planted, a vineyard, and put round it a wall, and digged a wine-vat, and built a tower,—and let it out to husbandmen; and left home.

Y COMENZÓ á hablarles por parábolas: Plantó un hombre una viña, y la cercó con seto, y cavó un lagar, y edificó una torre, y la arrendó á labradores, y se partió lejos.

And he began to speak unto them by parables. A certain man planted a vineyard, and set an hedge about it, and digged a place for the winefat, and built a tower, and let it out to husbandmen, and went into a far country.

He began to speak to them in parables. “A man planted a vineyard, put a hedge around it, dug a pit for the wine press, built a tower, rented it out to a farmer, and went into another country.

And he sent forth, unto the husbandmen, in the season, a servant, that, from the husbandmen, he might receive of the fruits of the vineyard;

Y envió un siervo á los labradores, al tiempo, para que tomase de los labradores del fruto de la viña.

And at the season he sent to the husbandmen a servant, that he might receive from the husbandmen of the fruit of the vineyard.

When it was time, he sent a servant to the farmer to get from the farmer his share of the fruit of the vineyard.

and, taking him, they beat him, and sent him away, empty.

Mas ellos, tomándole, le hirieron, y le enviaron vacío.

And they caught him, and beat him, and sent him away empty.

They took him, beat him, and sent him away empty.

And, again, sent he forth unto them, another servant; and, him, they smote on the head, and dishonoured.

Y volvió á enviarles otro siervo; mas apedreándole, le hirieron en la cabeza, y volvieron á enviarle afrentado.

And again he sent unto them another servant; and at him they cast stones, and wounded him in the head, and sent him away shamefully handled.

Again, he sent another servant to them; and they threw stones at him, wounded him in the head, and sent him away shamefully treated.

And another sent he forth; and, him, they slew. And many others; some, indeed beating, and, others, slaying.

Y volvió á enviar otro, y á aquél mataron; y á otros muchos, hiriendo á unos y matando á otros.

And again he sent another; and him they killed, and many others; beating some, and killing some.

Again he sent another, and they killed him, and many others, beating some, and killing some.

Yet one, had he, a son beloved: he sent him forth last unto them, saying—They will pay deference unto my son!

Teniendo pues aún un hijo suyo amado, enviólo también á ellos el postrero, diciendo: Tendrán en reverencia á mi hijo.

Having yet therefore one son, his wellbeloved, he sent him also last unto them, saying, They will reverence my son.

Therefore still having one, his beloved son, he sent him last to them, saying, ‘They will respect my son.’

But, those husbandmen, unto themselves, said—This, is the heir: Come! let us slay him, and, ours, shall be, the inheritance.

Mas aquellos labradores dijeron entre sí: Este es el heredero; venid, matémosle, y la heredad será nuestra.

But those husbandmen said among themselves, This is the heir; come, let us kill him, and the inheritance shall be ours.

But those farmers said among themselves, ‘This is the heir. Come, let’s kill him, and the inheritance will be ours.’

And, taking, they slew him, and cast him forth outside the vineyard.

Y prendiéndole, le mataron, y echaron fuera de la viña.

And they took him, and killed him, and cast him out of the vineyard.

They took him, killed him, and cast him out of the vineyard.

What will the lord of the vineyard do? He will come, and destroy the husbandmen, and let the vineyard unto others.

¿Qué, pues, hará el señor de la viña? Vendrá, y destruirá á estos labradores, y dará su viña á otros.

What shall therefore the lord of the vineyard do? he will come and destroy the husbandmen, and will give the vineyard unto others.

What therefore will the lord of the vineyard do? He will come and destroy the farmers, and will give the vineyard to others.

Have ye not, this scripture, read—A stone which the builders rejected, the same, hath become head of the corner!

¿Ni aun esta Escritura habéis leído: La piedra que desecharon los que edificaban, ésta es puesta por cabeza de esquina;

And have ye not read this scripture; The stone which the builders rejected is become the head of the corner:

Haven’t you even read this Scripture: ‘The stone which the builders rejected was made the head of the corner.

From the Lord, hath this come to pass, and is marvellous in our eyes?

Por el Señor es hecho esto, y es cosa maravillosa en nuestros ojos?

This was the Lord’s doing, and it is marvellous in our eyes?

This was from the Lord. It is marvelous in our eyes’?”

And they were seeking, to secure, him,—and were in fear of the multitude; for they perceived that, against them, the parable he had spoken. And, leaving him, they departed.

Y procuraban prenderle, porque entendían que decía á ellos aquella parábola; mas temían á la multitud; y dejándole, se fueron.

And they sought to lay hold on him, but feared the people: for they knew that he had spoken the parable against them: and they left him, and went their way.

They tried to seize him, but they feared the multitude; for they perceived that he spoke the parable against them. They left him and went away.

And they send forth unto him certain of the Pharisees and of the Herodians, that they might, catch, him, in discourse.

Y envían á él algunos de los Fariseos y de los Herodianos, para que le sorprendiesen en alguna palabra.

And they send unto him certain of the Pharisees and of the Herodians, to catch him in his words.

They sent some of the Pharisees and the Herodians to him, that they might trap him with words.

And, coming, they say unto him—Teacher! we know that, true, thou art, and it concerneth thee not about anyone,—for thou lookest not unto the face of men; but, in truth, the way of God, dost teach:—Is it allowable to give tax unto Caesar, or not? Should we give, or should we not give?

Y viniendo ellos, le dicen: Maestro, sabemos que eres hombre de verdad, y que no te cuidas de nadie; porque no miras á la apariencia de hombres, antes con verdad enseñas el camino de Dios: ¿Es lícito dar tributo á César, ó no? ¿Daremos, ó no daremos?

And when they were come, they say unto him, Master, we know that thou art true, and carest for no man: for thou regardest not the person of men, but teachest the way of God in truth: Is it lawful to give tribute to Cæsar, or not?

When they had come, they asked him, “Teacher, we know that you are honest, and don’t defer to anyone; for you aren’t partial to anyone, but truly teach the way of God. Is it lawful to pay taxes to Caesar, or not?

But, he, knowing their hypocrisy, said unto them—Why are ye, tempting, me? Bring me a denary, that I may see it.

Entonces él, como entendía la hipocresía de ellos, les dijo: ¿Por qué me tentáis? Traedme la moneda para que la vea.

Shall we give, or shall we not give? But he, knowing their hypocrisy, said unto them, Why tempt ye me? bring me a penny, that I may see it.

Shall we give, or shall we not give?” But he, knowing their hypocrisy, said to them, “Why do you test me? Bring me a denarius, that I may see it.”

And, they, brought one. And he saith unto them—Whose, is this image, and the inscription? And, they, said unto him—Caesar’s.

Y ellos se la trajeron y les dice: ¿Cúya es esta imagen y esta inscripción? Y ellos le dijeron: De César.

And they brought it. And he saith unto them, Whose is this image and superscription? And they said unto him, Cæsar’s.

They brought it. He said to them, “Whose is this image and inscription?” They said to him, “Caesar’s.”

And, Jesus, said—the things of Caesar, render, unto Caesar, and, the things of God, unto God. And they were marvelling at him.

Y respondiendo Jesús, les dijo: Dad lo que es de César á César; y lo que es de Dios, á Dios. Y se maravillaron de ello.

And Jesus answering said unto them, Render to Cæsar the things that are Cæsar’s, and to God the things that are God’s. And they marvelled at him.

Jesus answered them, “Give to Caesar the things that are Caesar’s, and to God the things that are God’s.” They marveled greatly at him.

And there come Sadducees unto him,—who, indeed say—Resurrection, there is none! and they were questioning him, saying—

Entonces vienen á él los Saduceos, que dicen que no hay resurrección, y le preguntaron, diciendo:

Then come unto him the Sadducees, which say there is no resurrection; and they asked him, saying,

Some Sadducees, who say that there is no resurrection, came to him. They asked him, saying,

Teacher! Moses, wrote for us, that—If one’s brother die, and leave behind a wife, and leave no child, that his brother should take his wife, and raise up seed unto his brother.

Maestro, Moisés nos escribió, que si el hermano de alguno muriese, y dejase mujer, y no dejase hijos, que su hermano tome su mujer, y levante linaje á su hermano.

Master, Moses wrote unto us, If a man’s brother die, and leave his wife behind him, and leave no children, that his brother should take his wife, and raise up seed unto his brother.

“Teacher, Moses wrote to us, ‘If a man’s brother dies and leaves a wife behind him, and leaves no children, that his brother should take his wife and raise up offspring for his brother.’

Seven brethren, there were: and, the first, took a wife, and, dying, left no seed,—

Fueron siete hermanos: y el primero tomó mujer, y muriendo, no dejó simiente;

Now there were seven brethren: and the first took a wife, and dying left no seed.

There were seven brothers. The first took a wife, and dying left no offspring.

And, the second, took her, and died, not leaving behind seed,—and, the third, likewise,—

Y la tomó el segundo, y murió, y ni aquél tampoco dejó simiente; y el tercero, de la misma manera.

And the second took her, and died, neither left he any seed: and the third likewise.

The second took her, and died, leaving no children behind him. The third likewise;

And, the seven, left no seed; last of all, the woman also, died:—

Y la tomaron los siete, y tampoco dejaron simiente: á la postre murió también la mujer.

And the seven had her, and left no seed: last of all the woman died also.

and the seven took her and left no children. Last of all the woman also died.

In the resurrection,—of, which, of them shall she be, wife? For, the seven, had her to wife.

En la resurrección, pues, cuando resucitaren, ¿de cuál de ellos será mujer? porque los siete la tuvieron por mujer.

In the resurrection therefore, when they shall rise, whose wife shall she be of them? for the seven had her to wife.

In the resurrection, when they rise, whose wife will she be of them? For the seven had her as a wife.”

Jesus said unto them—Are ye not, for this cause, deceiving yourselves, knowing neither the Scriptures, nor the power of God?

Entonces respondiendo Jesús, les dice: ¿No erráis por eso, porque no sabéis las Escrituras, ni la potencia de Dios?

And Jesus answering said unto them, Do ye not therefore err, because ye know not the scriptures, neither the power of God?

Jesus answered them, “Isn’t this because you are mistaken, not knowing the Scriptures nor the power of God?

For, when, from among the dead, they rise, they neither marry, nor are given in marriage, but are like messengers in the heavens.

Porque cuando resucitarán de los muertos, ni se casarán, ni serán dados en casamiento, mas son como los ángeles que están en los cielos.

For when they shall rise from the dead, they neither marry, nor are given in marriage; but are as the angels which are in heaven.

For when they will rise from the dead, they neither marry nor are given in marriage, but are like angels in heaven.

But, as touching the dead, that they, do rise,—Have ye not read in the book of Moses, at the Bush, how God spake unto him, saying—I †am the God of Abraham, and God of Isaac, and God of Jacob:—

Y de que los muertos hayan de resucitar, ¿no habéis leído en el libro de Moisés cómo le habló Dios en la zarza, diciendo: Yo soy el Dios de Abraham, y el Dios de Isaac, y el Dios de Jacob?

And as touching the dead, that they rise: have ye not read in the book of Moses, how in the bush God spake unto him, saying, I am the God of Abraham, and the God of Isaac, and the God of Jacob?

But about the dead, that they are raised, haven’t you read in the book of Moses about the Bush, how God spoke to him, saying, ‘I am the God of Abraham, the God of Isaac, and the God of Jacob’?

He is not a God of, dead, men, but of, living. Greatly, are ye deceiving yourselves.

No es Dios de muertos, mas Dios de vivos; así que vosotros mucho erráis.

He is not the God of the dead, but the God of the living: ye therefore do greatly err.

He is not the God of the dead, but of the living. You are therefore badly mistaken.”

And one of the Scribes, coming near, hearing them discussing, seeing that, well, he had answered them, began to question him—Which is the chief commandment of all?

Y llegándose uno de los escribas, que los había oído disputar, y sabía que les había respondido bien, le preguntó: ¿Cuál es el primer mandamiento de todos?

And one of the scribes came, and having heard them reasoning together, and perceiving that he had answered them well, asked him, Which is the first commandment of all?

One of the scribes came and heard them questioning together, and knowing that he had answered them well, asked him, “Which commandment is the greatest of all?”

Jesus answered—The chief is: Hear! O Israel,—The Lord our God, is, one Lord;

Y Jesús le respondió: El primer mandamiento de todos es: Oye, Israel, el Señor nuestro Dios, el Señor uno es.

And Jesus answered him, The first of all the commandments is, Hear, O Israel; The Lord our God is one Lord:

Jesus answered, “The greatest is: ‘Hear, Israel, the Lord our God, the Lord is one.

Therefore shalt thou love the Lord thy God, with all thy heart, and with all thy soul,—and with all thy mind; and with all thy strength.

Amarás pues al Señor tu Dios de todo tu corazón, y de toda tu alma, y de toda tu mente, y de todas tus fuerzas; este es el principal mandamiento.

And thou shalt love the Lord thy God with all thy heart, and with all thy soul, and with all thy mind, and with all thy strength: this is the first commandment.

You shall love the Lord your God with all your heart, with all your soul, with all your mind, and with all your strength.’ This is the first commandment.

The second, is, this—Thou shalt love, thy neighbour, as thyself. Greater than these, other commandment, is there none.

Y el segundo es semejante á él: Amarás á tu prójimo como á ti mismo. No hay otro mandamiento mayor que éstos.

And the second is like, namely this, Thou shalt love thy neighbour as thyself. There is none other commandment greater than these.

The second is like this: ‘You shall love your neighbor as yourself.’ There is no other commandment greater than these.”

The Scribe said unto him—Well, Teacher! in truth, hast thou said—He is, One, and there is none other, than he;

Entonces el escriba le dijo: Bien, Maestro, verdad has dicho, que uno es Dios, y no hay otro fuera de él;

And the scribe said unto him, Well, Master, thou hast said the truth: for there is one God; and there is none other but he:

The scribe said to him, “Truly, teacher, you have said well that he is one, and there is none other but he;

And, to love him, with all the heart, and with all the understanding,—and with all the might; and to love one’s neighbour as one’s self, is, abundantly more, than all the whole burnt offerings and sacrifices.

Y que amarle de todo corazón, y de todo entendimiento, y de toda el alma, y de todas las fuerzas, y amar al prójimo como á sí mismo, más es que todos los holocaustos y sacrificios.

And to love him with all the heart, and with all the understanding, and with all the soul, and with all the strength, and to love his neighbour as himself, is more than all whole burnt offerings and sacrifices.

and to love him with all the heart, with all the understanding, all the soul, and with all the strength, and to love his neighbor as himself, is more important than all whole burnt offerings and sacrifices.”

And, Jesus, seeing him, that, with intelligence he answered, said unto him—Not far, †art thou from the kingdom of God! And, no one, any longer, was daring to, question, him.

Jesús entonces, viendo que había respondido sabiamente, le dice: No estás lejos del reino de Dios. Y ya ninguno osaba preguntarle.

And when Jesus saw that he answered discreetly, he said unto him, Thou art not far from the kingdom of God. And no man after that durst ask him any question.

When Jesus saw that he answered wisely, he said to him, “You are not far from God’s Kingdom.” No one dared ask him any question after that.

And Jesus, answering, was saying, as he taught in the temple—How say the Scribes that, the Christ, is, Son of David?

Y respondiendo Jesús decía, enseñando en el templo: ¿Cómo dicen los escribas que el Cristo es hijo de David?

And Jesus answered and said, while he taught in the temple, How say the scribes that Christ is the Son of David?

Jesus responded, as he taught in the temple, “How is it that the scribes say that the Christ is the son of David?

David himself, hath said, by the Holy Spirit,—The Lord, hath said unto, my Lord, Sit thou on my right hand, until I put thy foes beneath thy feet.

Porque el mismo David dijo por el Espíritu Santo: Dijo el Señor á mi Señor: Siéntate á mi diestra, hasta que ponga tus enemigos por estrado de tus pies.

For David himself said by the Holy Ghost, The LORD said to my Lord, Sit thou on my right hand, till I make thine enemies thy footstool.

For David himself said in the Holy Spirit, ‘The Lord said to my Lord, “Sit at my right hand, until I make your enemies the footstool of your feet.”’

David himself, calleth him, Lord: whence, then, is he, his own son? And, the great multitude, was hearing him gladly.

Luego llamándole el mismo David Señor, ¿de dónde, pues, es su hijo? Y los que eran del común del pueblo le oían de buena gana.

David therefore himself calleth him Lord; and whence is he then his son? And the common people heard him gladly.

Therefore David himself calls him Lord, so how can he be his son?” The common people heard him gladly.

And, in his teaching, he was saying—Beware of the Scribes, who desire, in robes, to be walking about, and salutations in the markets,

Y les decía en su doctrina: Guardaos de los escribas, que quieren andar con ropas largas, y aman las salutaciones en las plazas,

And he said unto them in his doctrine, Beware of the scribes, which love to go in long clothing, and love salutations in the marketplaces,

In his teaching he said to them, “Beware of the scribes, who like to walk in long robes, and to get greetings in the marketplaces,

And first seats in the synagogues, and first couches in the chief meals,—

Y las primeras sillas en las sinagogas, y los primeros asientos en las cenas;

And the chief seats in the synagogues, and the uppermost rooms at feasts:

and to get the best seats in the synagogues and the best places at feasts,

Who devour widows’ houses, and, for a pretence, are long in prayer: these, shall receive a more surpassing judgment.

Que devoran las casas de las viudas, y por pretexto hacen largas oraciones. Estos recibirán mayor juicio.

Which devour widows’ houses, and for a pretence make long prayers: these shall receive greater damnation.

those who devour widows’ houses, and for a pretense make long prayers. These will receive greater condemnation.”

And, taking his seat over against the treasury, he was observing how, the multitude, was casting in copper into the treasury, and, man rich, were casting in, much.

Y estando sentado Jesús delante del arca de la ofrenda, miraba cómo el pueblo echaba dinero en el arca: y muchos ricos echaban mucho.

And Jesus sat over against the treasury, and beheld how the people cast money into the treasury: and many that were rich cast in much.

Jesus sat down opposite the treasury and saw how the multitude cast money into the treasury. Many who were rich cast in much.

And there came, one destitute, widow, and cast in two mites, which are, a farthing.

Y como vino una viuda pobre, echó dos blancas, que son un maravedí.

And there came a certain poor widow, and she threw in two mites, which make a farthing.

A poor widow came and she cast in two small brass coins, which equal a quadrans coin.

And, calling near his disciples, he said to them—Verily, I say unto you, this destitute widow, more than they all, hath cast in, of those casting into the treasury;

Entonces llamando á sus discípulos, les dice: De cierto os digo que esta viuda pobre echó más que todos los que han echado en el arca:

And he called unto him his disciples, and saith unto them, Verily I say unto you, That this poor widow hath cast more in, than all they which have cast into the treasury:

He called his disciples to himself and said to them, “Most certainly I tell you, this poor widow gave more than all those who are giving into the treasury,

For, they all, out of their surplus, cast in, but, she, out of her deficiency, all, as much as she had, cast in,—the whole of her living.

Porque todos han echado de lo que les sobra; mas ésta, de su pobreza echó todo lo que tenía, todo su alimento.

For all they did cast in of their abundance; but she of her want did cast in all that she had, even all her living.

for they all gave out of their abundance, but she, out of her poverty, gave all that she had to live on.”
