Mateo 20
1 Ecen, comparatu da ceruètaco resumá aitafamilia batequin, cein ilki içan baita arguiaren beguian languile alocatzera bere mahasticotzat.
"For the Kingdom of the Heavens is like an employer who went out early in the morning to hire men to work in his vineyard,
2 Eta languilequin accordaturic dinero batetan eguneco, igor citzan bere mahastira.
and having made an agreement with them for a shilling a day, sent them into his vineyard.
3 Eta ilkiric hirur orenén inguruän, ikus citzan berce alfer ceuden batzu plaçán.
About nine o'clock he went out and saw others loitering in the market-place.
4 Eta erran ciecén, Çoazte çuec-ere ene mahastira, eta bide datena emanen drauçuet.
To these also he said, "'You also, go into the vineyard, and whatever is right I will give you.'
5 Eta hec ioan citecen. Berriz ilkiric sey eta bedratzi orenén inguruän, eguin ceçan molde berean.
"So they went. Again about twelve, and about three o'clock, he went out and did the same.
6 Eta hameca orenen inguruän ilkiric, eriden citzan berce alfer ceuden batzu, eta dioste, Cergatic hemen çaudete egun gucian alfer?
And going out about five o'clock he found others loitering, and he asked them, "'Why have you been standing here all day long, doing nothing?'
7 Diotsate, Ceren nehorc ezpaiquaitu alocatu. Dioste, Çoazte çuec-ere ene mahastira, eta bide datena recebituren duçue.
"'Because no one has hired us,' they replied. "'You also, go into the vineyard,' he said.
8 Eta arrastu cenean, erran cieçón mahasti iabeac bere recebidoreari. Dei itzac languileac, eta paga iecéc alocairuä, hassiric azquenetaric lehenetarano.
"When evening came, the master said to his steward, "'Call the men and pay them their wages. Begin with the last set and finish with the first.'
9 Eta ethorri ciradenean hameca orenen inguruän alocatuac recebi ceçaten dinero bana.
"When those came who had begun at five o'clock, they received a shilling apiece;
10 Eta ethorriric lehenéc-ere, vste vkan dute guehiago recebituren çutela: baina recebi ceçaten hec-ere dinero baná.
and when the first came, they expected to get more, but they also each got the shilling.
11 Eta recebitu çutenean, murmuratzen çuten aitafamiliaren contra,
So when they had received it, they grumbled against the employer, saying,
12 Cioitela, Azquen hauc orembat eguin dié lanean, eta gure bardin eguin dituc, ekarri baitugu egunaren cargá, eta beroa.
"'These who came last have done only one hour's work, and you have put them on a level with us who have worked the whole day and have borne the scorching heat.'
13 Eta harc ihardesten çuela hetaric bati erran cieçón, Adisquideá, eztrauät hiri bidegaberic eguiten: ez aiz dinero batetan enequin accordatu?
"'My friend,' he answered to one of them, 'I am doing you no injustice. Did you not agree with me for a shilling?
14 Har eçac hire dena, eta habil: baina nahi diarocat azquen huni eman, hiri bay becembat.
Take your money and go. I choose to give this last comer just as much as I give you.
15 Ala eznaiz haiçu nahi dudanaren eguitera neure onéz? ala hire beguia gaichto da, ceren ni on bainaiz?
Have I not a right to do what I choose with my own property? Or are you envious because I am generous?'
16 Hala içanen dirade azquenac, lehen: eta lehenac, azquen: ecen anhitz dirade deithuac, baina guti elegituac.
"So the last shall be first, and the first last."
17 Eta Iesusec Ierusalemera igaitean, har citzan hamabi discipuluac appart bidean, eta erran ciecén,
Jesus was now going up to Jerusalem, and He took the twelve disciples aside by themselves, and on the way He said to them,
18 Huná, igaiten gara Ierusalemera, eta guiçonaren Semea liuraturen çaye Sacrificadore principaley eta Scribey, eta hura condemnaturen dute hiltzera:
"We are going up to Jerusalem, and there the Son of Man will be betrayed to the High Priests and Scribes. They will condemn Him to death,
19 Eta hura dute liuraturen Gentiley, escarnia, eta açota, eta crucifica deçatençat: baina hereneco egunean resuscitaturen da.
and hand Him over to the Gentiles to be made sport of and scourged and crucified; and on the third day He will be raised to life."
20 Orduan ethor cedin harengana Zebedeoren semen amá bere semequin, gurtzen, eta cerbait escatzen çayola.
Then the mother of the sons of Zabdi came to Him with her sons, and knelt before Him to make a request of Him.
21 Eta harc erran cieçón, Cer nahi dun? Diotsó, Ordena eçac iar ditecen ene bi seme hauc, bata hire escuinean, eta bercea ezquerrean, hire resumán.
"What is it you desire?" He asked. "Command," she replied, "that these my two sons may sit one at your right hand and one at your left in your Kingdom."
22 Eta ihardesten çuela Iesusec erran ceçan, Eztaquiçue ceren esquez çaudeten: edan ahal diroçue nic edateco dudan copa? Eta batheya ahal çaitezquete ni batheyaturen naicen baptismoaz? Diotsote, Bay.
"None of you know what you are asking for," said Jesus; "can you drink out of the cup from which I am about to drink?" "We can," they replied.
23 Orduan dioste, Ene copá edanen baduçue, eta ni batheyaturen naicén baptismoaz batheyaturen baçarete: baina ene escuinean edo ezquerrean iartea, ezta ene emaiteco, baina emanen çaye ene Aitaz appainduric dauèney.
"You shall drink out of my cup," He said, "but a seat at my right hand or at my left it is not for me to allot, but it belongs to those for whom it has been prepared by my Father."
24 Eta hura ençunic berce hamarrac bekaitz citecen bi anayéz.
The other ten heard of this, and their indignation was aroused against the two brothers.
25 Iesusec bada hec beregana deithuric, dio, Badaquiçue ecen nationetaco princiéc seignoriatzen dutela hayen gainean: eta handiéc authoritatez vsatzen dutela hayén gaynean.
But Jesus called them to Him, and said, "You know that the rulers of the Gentiles lord it over them, and their great men exercise authority over them.
26 Ordea ezta hala içanen çuen artean: baina nor-ere handi nahi içanen baita çuen artean, biz çuen muthil:
Not so shall it be among you; but whoever desires to be great among you shall be your servant,
27 Eta nor-ere nahi içanen baita çuen artean lehen içan, biz çuen cerbitzari.
and whoever desires to be first among you shall be your bondservant;
28 Hala nola guiçonaren Semea ezpaita ethorri cerbitzatu içatera, baina cerbitzatzera, eta bere viciaren rançoinetan anhitzengatic emaitera.
just as the Son of Man came not to be served but to serve, and to give His life as the redemption-price for many."
29 Eta hec Iericotic partitzen ciradela, gendetze handi iarreiqui cequión.
As they were leaving Jericho, an immense crowd following Him,
30 Eta huná, bi itsu bide bazterrean ceudenec, ençunic ecen Iesus iragaiten cela, oihu eguin ceçaten, cioitela, Auc pietate guçaz Dauid-en seme Iauná.
two blind men sitting by the roadside heard that it was Jesus who was passing by, and cried aloud, "Sir, Son of David, pity us."
31 Eta gendetzeac mehatchatzen cituen hec ichil litecençát, baina hec oihu guehiago eguiten çuten, cioitela, Auc pietate guçaz Dauid-en seme Iauná.
The people angrily tried to silence them, but they cried all the louder. "O Sir, Son of David, pity us," they said.
32 Eta gueldituric Iesusec dei citzan, eta erran ceçan, Cer nahi duçue daguiçuedan?
So Jesus stood still and called to them. "What shall I do for you?" He asked.
33 Diotsote, Iauna, gure beguiac irequi ditecen.
"Sir, let our eyes be opened," they replied.
34 Eta compassione harturic Iesusec hunqui citzan hayén beguiac: eta bertan ikustea recebi ceçaten hayén beguiéc, eta hari iarreiqui cequizquión.
Moved with compassion, Jesus touched their eyes, and immediately they regained their sight and followed Him.
