< Matthew 20 >

1 "For the kingdom of heaven is like a landowner who went out early in the morning to hire laborers for his vineyard.
Like for is the kingdom of the heavens to a man a master of a house who went out in [the] morning to hire workmen for the vineyard of him.
2 When he had agreed with the laborers for a denarius a day, he sent them into his vineyard.
(and *o*) Having agreed then with the workmen for a denarius for the day he sent them into the vineyard of him.
3 He went out about nine in the morning, and saw others standing idle in the marketplace.
And having gone out about (the *k*) third hour he saw others already standing in the marketplace idle
4 To them he said, 'You also go into the vineyard, and whatever is right I will give you.' So they went their way.
and to those he said; do go also you yourselves into the vineyard, and whatever if shall be right I will give you. And they went.
5 Again he went out about noon and at three in the afternoon, and did likewise.
Again (then *no*) having gone out about [the] sixth and ninth hour he did likewise.
6 About five that afternoon he went out, and found others standing. He said to them, 'Why do you stand here all day idle?'
About then the eleventh (hour *k*) having gone out he found others already standing (idle *K*) and he says to them; Why here you have stood all the day idle?
7 "They said to him, 'Because no one has hired us.' "He said to them, 'You also go into the vineyard.'
They say to him Because no [one] us has hired. He says to them; do go also You yourselves into the vineyard’ (and what if shall be right you will receive. *K*)
8 When evening had come, the lord of the vineyard said to his manager, 'Call the laborers and pay them their wages, beginning from the last to the first.'
Evening then having arrived says the master of the vineyard to the foreman of him; do call the workmen and do pay to them the wages having begun from the last until the first.
9 "When those who were hired at about five in the afternoon came, they each received a denarius.
And having come (now *o*) those [hired] about the eleventh hour they received each a denarius.
10 When the first came, they supposed that they would receive more; and they likewise each received a denarius.
(And *no*) having come (now *k*) the first they thought that (more *N(k)O*) they will receive; but they received (those *no*) each a denarius also themselves.
11 When they received it, they murmured against the master of the household,
Having received now they were grumbling against the master of the house
12 saying, 'These last have spent one hour, and you have made them equal to us, who have borne the burden of the day and the scorching heat.'
saying (that: *k*) These the last one hour worked, and equal to us them you have made, to [we] who having borne the burden of the day and the scorching heat.
13 "But he answered one of them, 'Friend, I am doing you no wrong. Did you not agree with me for a denarius?
And answering to one of them he said; Friend, not I do wrong you; Surely for a denarius you did agree with me?
14 Take that which is yours, and go your way. It is my desire to give to this last just as much as to you.
do take what [is] yours and do go. I desire now to this last to give as also to you;
15 Is it not lawful for me to do what I want to with what I own? Or is your eye evil, because I am good?'
Or surely it is lawful for me what I want to do with that which [is] mine? (Or *N(K)O*) the eye of you envious is because I myself generous am?
16 So the last will be first, and the first last; for many are called, but few are chosen."
Thus will be the last first and the first last (many for are called few now chosen. *KO*)
17 As Yeshua was going up to Jerusalem, he took the Twelve aside, and on the way he said to them,
And (soon to be *O*) (now *o*) (going up *NK(o)*) Jesus to Jerusalem He took the twelve disciples aside [on their] own and on the way He said to them;
18 "Look, we are going up to Jerusalem, and the Son of Man will be delivered to the chief cohanim and scribes, and they will condemn him to death,
Behold we go up to Jerusalem, and the Son of Man will be betrayed to the chief priests and scribes, and they will condemn Him to death
19 and will hand him over to the non-Jews to mock, to scourge, and to crucify; and the third day he will be raised up."
and they will betray Him to the Gentiles unto to mock and to flog and to crucify; and on the third day (He will rise again. *N(k)O*)
20 Then the mother of the sons of Zavdai came to him with her sons, kneeling and asking a certain thing of him.
Then came to Him the mother of the sons of Zebedee with the sons of her kneeling down and asking something (away from *N(k)O*) Him.
21 He said to her, "What do you want?" She said to him, "Command that these, my two sons, may sit, one on your right hand, and one on your left hand, in your Kingdom."
And He said to her; What do you desire? She says to Him; do say that may sit these two sons of mine one on [the] right hand of You and one on [the] left hand (of You *no*) in the kingdom of You.
22 But Yeshua answered and said, "You do not know what you are asking. Are you able to drink the cup that I am about to drink?" They said to him, "We are able."
Answering now Jesus said; Not you know what you ask for. Are you able to drink the cup which I myself am about to drink (and *K(o)*) (baptism what I myself am baptized to be baptized? *K*) They say to Him; We are able.
23 He said to them, "You will indeed drink my cup, but to sit on my right hand and on my left hand is not mine to give; but it is for whom it has been prepared by my Father."
(and *k*) He says to them; Indeed the cup of Mine You will drink (and baptism what I myself am baptized will be baptized *K*) but to sit on [the] right hand of Me and on [the] left (of me *k*) not is Mine (this *n*) to give, but [to those] for whom it has been prepared by the Father of Mine.
24 When the ten heard it, they were indignant with the two brothers.
And having heard [this] the ten were indignant about the two brothers.
25 But Yeshua summoned them, and said, "You know that the rulers of the nations lord it over them, and their great ones exercise authority over them.
And Jesus having called to [him] them said; You know that the rulers of the Gentiles exercise lordship over them, and the great ones exercise authority over them.
26 It will not be so among you, but whoever desires to become great among you must be your servant.
Not thus (now *k*) (will it be *NK(o)*) among you, but who[ever] (if *NK(o)*) shall wish among you great to become, (he will be *N(k)O*) your servant;
27 And whoever desires to be first among you must be your slave,
and who[ever] (maybe *N(k)O*) shall wish among you to be first, (he will be *N(k)O*) your slave;
28 even as the Son of Man did not come to be served, but to serve, and to give his life as a ransom for many."
even as the Son of Man not came to be served but to serve and to give the life of Him [as] a ransom for many.
29 As they went out from Jericho, a large crowd followed him.
And when were going out they from Jericho followed Him a crowd great.
30 And look, two blind men sitting by the road, when they heard that Yeshua was passing by, shouted, "Have mercy on us, Lord, son of David."
And behold two blind [men] sitting beside the road, having heard that Jesus is passing by, cried out saying; do have mercy on us Lord (Jesus *O*) (Son *NK(O)*) of David.
31 The crowd rebuked them, telling them that they should be quiet, but they shouted even more, "Have mercy on us, Lord, son of David."
And the crowd rebuked them that they may be silent. But all the more (they cried out *N(k)O*) saying: do have mercy on us Lord, (Son *NK(O)*) of David.
32 Yeshua stood still, and called them, and asked, "What do you want me to do for you?"
And having stopped Jesus called them and said; What do you desire I may do unto you?
33 They told him, "Lord, that our eyes may be opened."
They say to Him; Lord, that (may be opened *N(k)O*) the eyes of us.
34 Yeshua, being moved with compassion, touched their eyes; and immediately their eyes received their sight, and they followed him.
Having been moved with compassion then Jesus touched the (eyes *N(k)O*) of them, and immediately they received sight (of them eyes *k*) and they followed Him.
