Note: This view shows ‘verses’ which are not natural language units and hence sometimes only part of a sentence will be visible. Normally the OET discourages the reading of individual ‘verses’, but this view is only designed for doing comparisons of different translations. Click on any Bible version abbreviation down the left-hand side to see the verse in more of its context. The OET segments on this page are still very early looks into the unfinished texts of the Open English Translation of the Bible. Please double-check these texts in advance before using in public.

20.14 Quem cum vidissent. Aperte probat Judæos, non per ignorantiam crucifixisse Filium Dei, sed per invidiam.

Et ideo consulentes sibi dicunt: Ecce mundus totus post eum abiit Joan. 12., etc. Hæreditatem ergo Ecclesiæ quam non moriens Pater reliquit, sed ipse sua morte emptam resurgendo possedit, hanc Judæi eripere volunt, dum fidem, quæ per eum est, exstinguere conantur, justitiæ Dei non subjecti, sed suam constituere volentes. Hic est hæres: Christus hæres, quia morti propriæ supervixit, et testamentorum quæ ipse condidit, quasi hæreditaria in nostris profectibus emolumenta consequitur.

20:14 Let’s kill him and get the estate for ourselves! They believed that killing the heir would give them power over the estate. They foolishly failed to realize that the owner was still alive and would demand justice. Similarly, the religious leaders thought that they could keep their authority over the people of Israel by killing Jesus.
Note 1 topic: figures-of-speech / explicit
ἰδόντες δὲ αὐτὸν, οἱ γεωργοὶ
/having/_seen but him the tenant_farmers
It may be helpful to state explicitly that this happened after the owner sent his son and he arrived. Alternate translation: [So the owner sent his son. But when he arrived and the farmers saw him]
οἱ γεωργοὶ
the tenant_farmers
See how you translated farmers in 20:9. Alternate translation: [the vine growers] or [the grape farmers]
Note 2 topic: figures-of-speech / quotesinquotes

saying this is the heir ˱we˲_/may/_kill_off him in_order_that ˱of˲_us /may/_become the inheritance
If it would be helpful in your language, you could translate this so that there is not a quotation within a quotation. Alternate translation: [saying that the son was the owner’s heir, and that they should kill him in order to get for themselves the vineyard he would have inherited]
Note 3 topic: figures-of-speech / metonymy
ἡ κληρονομία
the inheritance
By inheritance, the farmers mean the vineyard, which the son would inherit. Alternate translation: [this vineyard, which he is going to inherit]
