ULT MARK Chapter 12

12 And he began to speak to them in parables: “A man planted a vineyard and put a hedge around it and dug a pit for a winepress and built a watchtower and rented it out to farmers and went abroad. 2 And at the time he sent a servant to the farmers so that he might receive from the farmers from the fruits of the vineyard. 3 But having seized him, they beat him, and sent him away empty. 4 And again he sent to them another servant, and that one they wounded in the head and treated shamefully. 5 And he sent another, and that one they killed, and many others—beating some and killing others. 6 Having one more, a beloved son, he sent him to them last, saying, ‘They will respect my son.’ 7 But those farmers said to each other, ‘This is the heir. Come, let us kill him, and the inheritance will be ours.’ 8 And having seized him, they killed him, and threw him out of the vineyard. 9 What then will the lord of the vineyard do? He will come and destroy the farmers and will give the vineyard to others. 10 And have you not read this scripture?

‘A stone that the builders rejected,

this has become the head of the corner.

11 This came about from the Lord,

and it is marvelous in our eyes.’ ”

12 And they were seeking to seize him, and they feared the crowd, for they knew that he spoke the parable against them. And having left him, they went away.

13 And they send some of the Pharisees and the Herodians to him in order to trap him with a word. 14 And having come, they say to him, “Teacher, we know that you are truthful, and it is not a concern to you about anyone, for you do not look at the face of men, but you teach the way of God on the basis of truth. Is it lawful to give a poll tax to Caesar, or not? Should we give, or should we not give?” 15 But he, knowing their hypocrisy, said to them, “Why do you test me? Bring to me a denarius so that I might look at it.” 16 And they brought one, and he says to them, “Whose image and inscription is this?” And they said to him, “Caesar’s.” 17 And Jesus said to them, “The things of Caesar, give back to Caesar, and the things of God, to God.” And they were marveling at him.

18 And Sadducees, who say there is no resurrection, come to him and were questioning him, saying, 19 “Teacher, Moses wrote to us that if someone’s brother dies and leaves behind a wife but does not leave a child, his brother should take the wife and raise up seed for his brother. 20 There were seven brothers, and the first took a wife and dying, did not leave seed, 21 and the second took her and died, not having left seed, and the third likewise. 22 And the seven did not leave seed. Last of all, the woman also died. 23 In the resurrection, when they rise again, of which of them will she be a wife? For the seven had her as wife.” 24 Jesus said to them, “Are you not being led astray because of this, not knowing the Scriptures nor the power of God? 25 For when they rise from the dead, they neither marry nor are given in marriage, but they are like angels in the heavens. 26 But concerning the dead that are raised, did you not read in the book of Moses, at the bush, how God spoke to him, saying, ‘I am the God of Abraham, and the God of Isaac, and the God of Jacob’? 27 He is not a God of the dead, but of the living. You are being quite deceived.”

28 And one of the scribes, having come up, having heard them discussing this together, having seen that he answered them well, questioned him, “Which is the first commandment of all?” 29 Jesus answered, “The first is, ‘Hear, Israel, the Lord our God, the Lord is one. 30 And you will love the Lord your God from your whole heart, and from your whole soul, and from your whole mind, and from your whole strength.’ 31 The second is this, ‘You will love your neighbor as yourself.’ There is no other greater commandment than these.” 32 And the scribe said to him, “Good, Teacher! According to truth you have said that he is one, and there is no other besides him. 33 And to love him from the whole heart and from the whole understanding and from the whole strength, and to love the neighbor as oneself is even more than all the whole burnt offerings and sacrifices.” 34 And Jesus, having seen him, that he had answered wisely, said to him, “You are not far from the kingdom of God.” And no one any longer was daring to question him.

35 And answering, Jesus, teaching in the temple, said, “How do the scribes say that the Christ is the son of David? 36 David himself, in the Holy Spirit, said,

‘The Lord said to my Lord,

“Sit at my right hand,

until I put your enemies under your feet.” ’

37 David himself calls him ‘Lord,’ and how is he his son?” And a large crowd was listening to him gladly.

38 And in his teaching, he was saying, “Watch out for the scribes, desiring to walk in long robes and greetings in the marketplaces 39 and first seats in the synagogues and first places at the banquets. 40 They are devouring the houses of the widows, and as a pretext, offering long prayers. These will receive greater condemnation.”

41 And having sat down opposite the treasury, he was watching how the crowd puts money into the treasury. And many rich were putting in much. 42 And having come, one poor widow put in two lepta, which is a quadrans. 43 And having summoned his disciples, he said to them, “Truly I say to you that this poor widow put in more than all the ones putting into the treasury. 44 For all put in from the things abounding to them, but she, from her poverty, put in everything, as much as she had, her whole life.”
