Matthew 20
1 For the kingdome of heauen is like vnto a certaine, housholder, which went out at the dawning of the day to hire labourers into his vineyarde.
Simile est regnum cælorum homini patrifamilias, qui exiit primo mane conducere operarios in vineam suam.
2 And he agreed with the labourers for a peny a day, and sent them into his vineyard.
Conventione autem facta cum operariis ex denario diurno, misit eos in vineam suam.
3 And he went out about the third houre, and sawe other standing idle in the market place,
Et egressus circa horam tertiam, vidit alios stantes in foro otiosos,
4 And sayd vnto them, Goe ye also into my vineyard, and whatsoeuer is right, I will giue you: and they went their way.
et dixit illis: Ite et vos in vineam meam, et quod justum fuerit dabo vobis.
5 Againe he went out about the sixt and ninth houre, and did likewise.
Illi autem abierunt. Iterum autem exiit circa sextam et nonam horam: et fecit similiter.
6 And he went about the eleuenth houre, and found other standing idle, and sayd vnto them, Why stand ye here all the day idle?
Circa undecimam vero exiit, et invenit alios stantes, et dicit illis: Quid hic statis tota die otiosi?
7 They sayd vnto him, Because no man hath hired vs. He sayd to them, Goe ye also into my vineyard, and whatsoeuer is right, that shall ye receiue.
Dicunt ei: Quia nemo nos conduxit. Dicit illis: Ite et vos in vineam meam.
8 And when euen was come, the master of the vineyard sayd vnto his steward, Call the labourers, and giue them their hire, beginning at the last, till thou come to the first.
Cum sero autem factum esset, dicit dominus vineæ procuratori suo: Voca operarios, et redde illis mercedem incipiens a novissimis usque ad primos.
9 And they which were hired about ye eleuenth houre, came and receiued euery man a penie.
Cum venissent ergo qui circa undecimam horam venerant, acceperunt singulos denarios.
10 Nowe when the first came, they supposed that they should receiue more, but they likewise receiued euery man a penie.
Venientes autem et primi, arbitrati sunt quod plus essent accepturi: acceperunt autem et ipsi singulos denarios.
11 And when they had receiued it, they murmured against the master of the house,
Et accipientes murmurabant adversus patremfamilias,
12 Saying, These last haue wrought but one houre, and thou hast made them equall vnto vs, which haue borne the burden and heate of the day.
dicentes: Hi novissimi una hora fecerunt, et pares illos nobis fecisti, qui portavimus pondus diei, et æstus.
13 And hee answered one of them, saying, Friend, I doe thee no wrong: didst thou not agree with me for a penie?
At ille respondens uni eorum, dixit: Amice, non facio tibi injuriam: nonne ex denario convenisti mecum?
14 Take that which is thine owne, and go thy way: I will giue vnto this last, as much as to thee.
Tolle quod tuum est, et vade: volo autem et huic novissimo dare sicut et tibi.
15 Is it not lawfull for me to do as I will with mine owne? Is thine eye euil, because I am good?
Aut non licet mihi quod volo, facere? an oculus tuus nequam est, quia ego bonus sum?
16 So the last shalbe first, and the first last: for many are called, but fewe chosen.
Sic erunt novissimi primi, et primi novissimi. Multi enim sunt vocati, pauci vero electi.
17 And Iesus went vp to Hierusalem, and tooke the twelue disciples apart in the way, and said vnto them,
Et ascendens Jesus Jerosolymam, assumpsit duodecim discipulos secreto, et ait illis:
18 Beholde, wee goe vp to Hierusalem, and the Sonne of man shall bee deliuered vnto the chiefe priestes, and vnto the Scribes, and they shall condemne him to death,
Ecce ascendimus Jerosolymam, et Filius hominis tradetur principibus sacerdotum, et scribis, et condemnabunt eum morte,
19 And shall deliuer him to the Gentiles, to mocke, and to scourge, and to crucifie him, but the third day he shall rise againe.
et tradent eum gentibus ad illudendum, et flagellandum, et crucifigendum, et tertia die resurget.
20 Then came to him the mother of Zebedeus children with her sonnes, worshipping him, and desiring a certaine thing of him.
Tunc accessit ad eum mater filiorum Zebedæi cum filiis suis, adorans et petens aliquid ab eo.
21 And he said vnto her, What wouldest thou? She said to him, Graunt that these my two sonnes may sit, the one at thy right hand, and the other at thy left hand in thy kingdome.
Qui dixit ei: Quid vis? Ait illi: Dic ut sedeant hi duo filii mei, unus ad dexteram tuam, et unus ad sinistram in regno tuo.
22 And Iesus answered and said, Ye know not what ye aske. Are ye able to drinke of the cup that I shall drinke of, and to be baptized with the baptisme that I shalbe baptized with? They said to him, We are able.
Respondens autem Jesus, dixit: Nescitis quid petatis. Potestis bibere calicem, quem ego bibiturus sum? Dicunt ei: Possumus.
23 And he said vnto them, Ye shall drinke in deede of my cup, and shall be baptized with the baptisme, that I am baptized with, but to sit at my right hande, and at my left hand, is not mine to giue: but it shalbe giuen to them for whome it is prepared of my Father.
Ait illis: Calicem quidem meum bibetis: sedere autem ad dexteram meam vel sinistram non est meum dare vobis, sed quibus paratum est a Patre meo.
24 And when the other ten heard this, they disdained at the two brethren.
Et audientes decem, indignati sunt de duobus fratribus.
25 Therefore Iesus called them vnto him, and saide, We knowe that the lordes of the Gentiles haue domination ouer them, and they that are great, exercise authoritie ouer them.
Jesus autem vocavit eos ad se, et ait: Scitis quia principes gentium dominantur eorum: et qui majores sunt, potestatem exercent in eos.
26 But it shall not be so among you: but whosoeuer will be great among you, let him be your seruant.
Non ita erit inter vos: sed quicumque voluerit inter vos major fieri, sit vester minister:
27 And whosoeuer will be chiefe among you, let him be your seruant.
et qui voluerit inter vos primus esse, erit vester servus.
28 Euen as the Sonne of man came not to be serued, but to serue, and to giue his life for the ransome of many.
Sicut Filius hominis non venit ministrari, sed ministrare, et dare animam suam redemptionem pro multis.
29 And as they departed from Iericho, a great multitude followed him.
Et egredientibus illis ab Jericho, secuta est eum turba multa,
30 And beholde, two blinde men, sitting by the way side, when they heard that Iesus passed by, cryed, saying, O Lord, the Sonne of Dauid, haue mercie on vs.
et ecce duo cæci sedentes secus viam audierunt quia Jesus transiret: et clamaverunt, dicentes: Domine, miserere nostri, fili David.
31 And the multitude rebuked them, because they should holde their peace: but they cried the more, saying, O Lord, the Sonne of Dauid, haue mercie on vs.
Turba autem increpabat eos ut tacerent. At illi magis clamabant, dicentes: Domine, miserere nostri, fili David.
32 Then Iesus stoode still, and called them, and said, What will ye that I should do to you?
Et stetit Jesus, et vocavit eos, et ait: Quid vultis ut faciam vobis?
33 They saide to him, Lord, that our eyes may be opened.
Dicunt illi: Domine, ut aperiantur oculi nostri.
34 And Iesus mooued with compassion, touched their eyes, and immediatly their eyes receiued sight, and they followed him.
Misertus autem eorum Jesus, tetigit oculos eorum. Et confestim viderunt, et secuti sunt eum.
