< Matthew 20 >

1 FOR the kingdom of heaven is like a man, the master of a family, who went out at break of day, to hire labourers into his vineyard.
Ulwakhuva utudheva ulwakhukyanya luhwanine nu munu yuywa vienienyumba yuwa alaviele phavusi vuwikya, ukhuta khukhodova aviliema avahieliekhe khukyalo kyamwene ikya sabibu.
2 And when he had agreed with the labourers at a denarius a day, he sent them into the vineyard.
Umwene wamalile ukhunchova naviliema ukhuta iekhuvahomba eilinchova limo edinali pwu akhavahieliekha khukyalo iekyamwene eikya sabibu.
3 And going out about the third hour, he saw others standing in the market place unemployed.
Pwu akhahuva gwale unsiekhi ugwa saa tatu, akhavavona avanghe viemili palighunchi vavo valievuvule eimbombo.
4 And he said to them, Go ye also into the vineyard, and whatever is equitable, I will give it you. So they went.
Vophe avo akhavavula akhata mulutaghe khukyab ghangho eikya sabibu eikhilondiwa eikyalweli ukhuvaphanie khuvapha vakhaluta.
5 Again going out, about the sixth and ninth hour, he did after the same manner.
Akhahuma khanghe unsiekhi ugwa saa sita kenda, akhavomba vulevule.
6 But about the eleventh hour, going out, he found others standing unemployed, and saith unto them, Why stand ye here all the day idle?
Hanghe mwuo saa khumi na moja akhahuma, akhavavona avanghe viemile, akhavavula, khikhi mwiemile apha eimusi yoni samuvombile eimbombo.
7 They say unto him, Because no man hath hired us. He saith to them, Go ye also into the vineyard; and whatever is equitable, ye shall receive.
Vakhambula vakhata, asikhuli umunu yuywa atughongholiele khukhombombela, akhavula akhata mulutaghe nayumwe khu kyalo kyangho eikya sabibu.
8 Now when the evening came, the master of the vineyard said to his overseer, Call the labourers, and give them their wages, beginning from the last to the first.
Wavile wielile umbaha uvialolelagha pakyalo akhambula undoleli vamwene. Uvielanghe avielema uvaphe uluhombo lwavo, ukhutenghula uvakhalile ukhudhugha uvvakhatengwiele.
9 And when they came, who began about the eleventh hour, they received each a denarius.
Vavile vienchie avasaa khumi na moja vakhavava uluhombo.
10 But when the first came, they expected that they should receive more; and they also received every man a denarius.
Vula avataliele valumanyile ukhuta viekhava uluhombo ululutieliele, na vophe vakhuphiliela uluhombo lulwa lulihaninile navakhancheliwe.
11 But when they received it, they murmured against the master of the family:
Vuvaphokhili puvakhasagha vakhaviepha vakhambiephiela unyanyumba.
12 saying, These last have wrought only a single hour, and thou hast put them on an equality with us, who have borne the burden and heat of the day.
Pwu valiekhunchova valikhuta, avinchilekhuvumalilo vavombile eimbombo iesaa yeimo vuvule, nuve uvahombile tulihaniele nufwe twieyumielinche nukhughatala nulunchuva ulukhali ulwaphamusi yoni.
13 But he answering, said to one of them, Friend, I do thee no injustice; did I not agree with thee for a denarius?
Vophe akhamwamula yuomo akhambula akhata, imanyani, saniekhukhosyova, ataukhidhiehane nune ukhukhuhomba ulutatama?
14 Take then thine own, and begone: I chuse to give to this last even as to thee.
Utole uluhombo lwakho ughodhokhaghe. Nienoghwa ukhumpha uyou uvakhuvusilielo mutiehane nuve.
15 Is it not lawful for me to do what I will with my own? Is thine eye evil, because I am good?
Saluononu khulwune ukhuvombela fifwo nielenafwo mumbwieghane wangho? Aphanghe eiliho lyakho lieviele livivi ulwakhuva une ukhuva ienonu?
16 Thus shall the last be first, and the first last; for many are called, but the elect are few.
Vulevule avakhuvumalielo valatata, navavo vataliele valalava vakhuvumalielo.
17 And Jesus going up to Jerusalem, took his twelve disciples aside on the road, and said to them;
UYesu uwitogha ukhuluta khuu Yelusalemu, avatolile avankhonghe vamwene khienchigho na vavieli ukhula khuvutietu munjiela akhavavula.
18 Lo! we are going up to Jerusalem, and the Son of man will be betrayed to the chief priests and scribes, and they shall condemn him to death,
Mulolaghe twietogha twieluta khu Yelusalemu, nu Mwana viva Adamu ienchiviekhiwa mumavokho ghu vavaha avalumbielieli na muvakhatani, avene uyuvikhung'iegha akhuta afwe.
19 and shall deliver him to the Gentiles, to insult, and to scourge, and to crucify: and the third day he shall rise again.
Pwu yuviekhung'umia ukhumbiekha khuvana avanyaphanchi ukhuta vankieniele, ukhunhova nukhu ntensya. Hanghe eilinchuva eilyadhatu alanchuka.
20 Then came to him the mother of Zebedee’s children, with her sons, paying him obeisance, and petitioning a favour of him.
Akhincha uvanina vavana ava Zebedayo, pwu akhaluta khwa Yesu navana va mwene, akhansana, nukhundhova eikhienu ukhuma khumwene.
21 Then he said to her, What is thy wish? She saith unto him, Tell me that these my two sons shall sit, the one at thy right hand, and the other at thy left, in thy kingdom.
Akhambula, wie nohwa khikhi? Akhambula, uchove utamule, avana vangho ava, vaieli vatame yuomo iekhievokho eikhwakho eikyakhundyuo. Uyunghe eikhivokho eikya ng'eighe, khuludheva lwakho.
22 Then Jesus answering said, Ye know not what ye ask. Can ye drink of the cup that I am going to drink, and be baptised with the baptism with which I am baptised? They say unto him, We are able.
UYesu akhandha akhata, Samukhiemanyile eikyumudhova. Ndamukhawesye ukhunywela eikhikhombe khikyo ninywela uone? Vakhambula vakhata, “Tuwesya”.
23 And he saith unto them, Ye shall indeed drink of my cup, and with the baptism with which I am baptised, shall ye be baptised; but to sit on my right hand, and on my left, it is not in my power to bestow, but on those, for whom it was prepared by my Father.
Pwu akhwavula, “Lweli akhikhombe kyango uyumunywela, ukhuta ukhutama khulyune khukhievokho eikyando nie khievokho eikyang'enghi une nillienivule uvulamuli wangho uwakhuvapha, valakhava vala vavo UDada vangho avaviekhiela uvutamo uwakhutama.
24 And the twelve, on hearing this, were filled with indignation against the two brethren.
Avankhonghi vala khienchigho vuvaphuliekhe eiwo vakhaviepha eino khuvalukhololwava vala vaveili.
25 But Jesus, calling them to him, said, Ye know that the princes of the Gentiles lord it over them, and their great men exercise authority among them.
UYesu akhaviekingha avene akhanchovba muluomanyile ukhuta avalonghonchi avanyamphanchi viekhuvalonghoncha khumakha, na vavaha vavo vikhuvaphuliehincha nukhuvavombencha umwe!
26 But thus shall it not be with you. But whosoever will be a great man among you, let him be your servant;
Pwu sanchikhave ewo khulyumwe, ulwakhuva umunu uvieinoghwa ukhuva iembaha khulyumwe, avienchaghe iembombi veinyo.
27 and whosoever will be first, let him be your slave.
Nu munu uvieinoghwa ukhutala atenghule khulyume pwu ave iembombi ienonu.
28 Even as the Son of man came not to be waited upon, but to serve, and to give his life a ransom for many.
Nduvu umunu una Adamu saienchekhuvombeliewa, ainchile khuvomba, nukwiehumya uwumi uwamwene ukhuva neekhelo iya vanu avienghi.
29 And as they were going out of Jericho, a great multitude followed him.
Wou iehegha khu Yeliko awanu avienghi vakhankhongha.
30 And, behold, two blind men sat by the road side, who hearing that Jesus was passing by, cried out, saying, Have mercy on us, O Lord, son of David!
Pwu avanu vavieli vavo vabhoofwile amiho vatakhatama palunkhanji panchiela, vaviele viephulekha ukhuta UYesu ieghendha ielutaniencha phala, pwu avene valiekhukhola nukweilangha khumakha valikhuta, ututanghe, lentwa, viemwana va Davudi!
31 And the multitude checked them, that they should be silent; but they cried out the more, Have mercy on us, Lord, son of David.
Avanu pwu valiekhuyadhukha, valiiekhuta vanchinghe mie vielekhelwe ukhunchova. Avene pwu valiekhuphie kwilangha, hutanghe, lentwa, mwana va davudi!
32 And Jesus standing called them, and said, What desire ye, that I should do for you?
UYesu akhema, akhavielagha, akhanchova, mwinoghwa nievavombele khinukhiekhi?
33 They say unto him, Lord, that our eyes may be opened.
Vakhata, lentwa, twinoghwa amiho gyeio ghadiendunkhe ghalolaghe.
34 Then Jesus, moved with compassion, touched their eyes; and immediately their eyes recovered sight, and they followed him.
UYesu akhavakholela eihisa, akhavakhotela amiho ghavene, usisiekhi ghughwa vakhatengule ukhulola, vakhankongha.
