Mark Chapter 12
The parable of the vineyard and husbandmen. Caesar's right to tribute.
The Sadducees are confuted. The first commandment. The widow's mite.
12:1. And he began to speak to them in parables: A certain man planted a
vineyard and made a hedge about it and dug a place for the winefat and
built a tower and let it to husbandmen: and went into a far country.
12:2. And at the season he sent to the husbandmen a servant to receive
of the husbandmen of the fruit of the vineyard.
12:3. Who, having laid hands on him, beat and sent him away empty.
12:4. And again he sent to them another servant: and him they wounded in
the head and used him reproachfully.
12:5. And again he sent another, and him they killed: and many others,
of whom some they beat, and others they killed.
12:6. Therefore, having yet one son, most dear to him, he also sent him
unto them last of all, saying: They will reverence my son.
12:7. But the husbandmen said one to another: This is the heir. Come
let us kill him and the inheritance shall be ours.
12:8. And laying hold on him, they killed him and cast him out of the
vineyard.
12:9. What therefore will the lord of the vineyard do? He will come and
destroy those husbandmen and will give the vineyard to others.
12:10. And have you not read this scripture, The stone which the
builders rejected, the same is made the head of the corner:
12:11. By the Lord has this been done, and it is wonderful in our eyes.
12:12. And they sought to lay hands on him: but they feared the people.
For they knew that he spoke this parable to them. And leaving him, they
went their way.
12:13. And they sent to him some of the Pharisees and of the Herodians:
that they should catch him in his words.
12:14. Who coming, say to him: Master, we know that thou art a true
speaker and carest not for any man; for thou regardest not the person of
men, but teachest the way of God in truth. Is it lawful to give tribute
to Caesar? Or shall we not give it?
12:15. Who knowing their wiliness, saith to them: Why tempt you me?
Bring me a penny that I may see it.
12:16. And they brought it him. And he saith to them: Whose is this
image and inscription? They say to him, Caesar's.
12:17. And Jesus answering, said to them: Render therefore to Caesar the
things that are Caesar's and to God the things that are God's. And they
marvelled at him.
12:18. And there came to him the Sadducees, who say there is no
resurrection. And they asked him, saying:
12:19. Master, Moses wrote unto us that if any man's brother die and
leave his wife behind him and leave no children, his brother should take
his wife and raise up seed to his brother.
12:20. Now there were seven brethren: and the first took a wife and died
leaving no issue.
12:21. And the second took her and died: and neither did he leave any
issue. And the third in like manner.
12:22. And the seven all took her in like manner and did not leave
issue. Last of all the woman also died.
12:23. In the resurrection therefore, when they shall rise again, whose
wife shall she be of them? For the seven had her to wife.
12:24. And Jesus answering, saith to them: Do ye not therefore err,
because you know not the scriptures nor the power of God?
