Matthew 20
1 For the kingdom of heaven is like unto a man that is a householder, which went out early in the morning to hire labourers into his vineyard.
“Nítorí ìjọba ọ̀run dàbí ọkùnrin tí ó jẹ́ baálé kan, tí ó jíjáde lọ ní kùtùkùtù òwúrọ̀, tí ó gba àwọn alágbàṣe sínú ọgbà àjàrà rẹ̀.
2 And when he had agreed with the labourers for a penny a day, he sent them into his vineyard.
Òun pinnu láti san dínárì kan fún iṣẹ́ òòjọ́ kan. Lẹ́yìn èyí ó sì rán wọn lọ sínú ọgbà àjàrà rẹ̀.
3 And he went out about the third hour, and saw others standing in the marketplace idle;
“Ní wákàtí kẹta ọjọ́ bí ó ti ń kọjá níwájú ilé ìgbanisíṣẹ́, ó rí díẹ̀ nínú àwọn aláìríṣẹ́ tí wọ́n dúró ní ọjà.
4 and to them he said, Go ye also into the vineyard, and whatsoever is right I will give you. And they went their way.
Ó wí fún wọn pé, ‘Ẹ̀yin pàápàá, ẹ lọ ṣiṣẹ́ nínú ọgbà àjàrà mi, bí ó bá sì di òpin ọjọ́, èmi yóò san iye ti ó bá yẹ fún yín.’
5 Again he went out about the sixth and the ninth hour, and did likewise.
Wọ́n sì lọ. “Ó tún jáde lọ́sàn án ní nǹkan bí wákàtí kẹfà àti wákàtí kẹsànán, ó túnṣe bákan náà.
6 And about the eleventh [hour] he went out, and found others standing; and he saith unto them, Why stand ye here all the day idle?
Lọ́jọ́ kan náà ní wákàtí kọkànlá ọjọ́, ó tún jáde sí àárín ìlú, ó sì rí àwọn aláìríṣẹ́ mìíràn tí wọ́n dúró. Ó bi wọ́n pé, ‘Èéṣe tí ẹ̀yin kì í ṣiṣẹ́ ní gbogbo ọjọ́?’
7 They say unto him, Because no man hath hired us. He saith unto them, Go ye also into the vineyard.
“Wọ́n sì dáhùn pé, ‘Nítorí pé kò sí ẹni tí yóò fún wa ní iṣẹ́ ṣe.’ “Ó tún sọ fún wọn pé, ‘Ẹ̀yin náà ẹ jáde lọ ṣiṣẹ́ pẹ̀lú nínú ọgbà àjàrà mi.’
8 And when even was come, the lord of the vineyard saith unto his steward, Call the labourers, and pay them their hire, beginning from the last unto the first.
“Nígbà tí ó di àṣálẹ́, ẹni tó ni ọgbà àjàrà sọ fún aṣojú rẹ̀ pé, ‘Pe àwọn òṣìṣẹ́ náà, kí ó san owó iṣẹ́ wọn fún wọn, bẹ̀rẹ̀ láti ẹni ìkẹyìn lọ sí ti ìṣáájú.’
9 And when they came that [were hired] about the eleventh hour, they received every man a penny.
“Nígbà tí àwọn ti a pè ní wákàtí kọkànlá ọjọ́ dé, ẹnìkọ̀ọ̀kan gba owó dínárì kan.
10 And when the first came, they supposed that they would receive more; and they likewise received every man a penny.
Nígbà tí àwọn tí a gbà ṣiṣẹ́ lákọ̀ọ́kọ́ fẹ́ gba owó tiwọn, èrò wọn ni pé àwọn yóò gba jù bẹ́ẹ̀ lọ, ṣùgbọ́n ẹnìkọ̀ọ̀kan wọn gba owó dínárì kan.
11 And when they received it, they murmured against the householder,
Bí wọ́n ti ń gbà á, wọ́n ń kùn sí onílẹ̀ náà,
12 saying, These last have spent [but] one hour, and thou hast made them equal unto us, which have borne the burden of the day and the scorching heat.
pé, ‘Wákàtí kan péré ni àwọn tí a gbà kẹ́yìn fi ṣiṣẹ́, ìwọ sì san iye kan náà fún wọn àti àwa náà ti a fi gbogbo ọjọ́ ṣiṣẹ́ nínú oòrùn gangan.’
13 But he answered and said to one of them, Friend, I do thee no wrong: didst not thou agree with me for a penny?
“Ṣùgbọ́n ó dá ọ̀kan nínú wọn lóhùn pé, ‘Ọ̀rẹ́, kò sí aburú nínú nǹkan tí èmi ṣe sí yín. Kì í ha ṣe pé ẹ̀yin gbà láti ṣiṣẹ́ fún owó dínárì kan.
14 Take up that which is thine, and go thy way; it is my will to give unto this last, even as unto thee.
Ó ní, gba èyí tí í ṣé tìrẹ, ki ó sì máa lọ. Èmi fẹ́ láti fún ẹni ìkẹyìn gẹ́gẹ́ bí mo ti fi fún ọ.
15 Is it not lawful for me to do what I will with mine own? or is thine eye evil, because I am good?
Àbí ó lòdì sí òfin pé kí èmi fún ẹnikẹ́ni ní owó mi bí mo bá yàn láti ṣe bẹ́ẹ̀? Kí ni ìdí tí ìwọ ní láti bínú nítorí èmi ṣe ohun rere?’
16 So the last shall be first, and the first last.
“Bẹ́ẹ̀ ni àwọn ẹni ìkẹyìn yóò di ẹni ìṣáájú, ẹni ìṣáájú yóò sì di ẹni ìkẹyìn.”
17 And as Jesus was going up to Jerusalem, he took the twelve disciples apart, and in the way he said unto them,
Bí Jesu ti ń gòkè lọ sí Jerusalẹmu, ó pe àwọn ọmọ-ẹ̀yìn rẹ̀ méjìlá sí apá kan ó sì wí pé,
18 Behold, we go up to Jerusalem; and the Son of man shall be delivered unto the chief priests and scribes; and they shall condemn him to death,
“Wò ó, àwa ń gòkè lọ sí Jerusalẹmu. Ó sọ fún wọn pé, a ó fi Ọmọ Ènìyàn lé àwọn olórí àlùfáà àti àwọn olùkọ́ òfin lọ́wọ́, wọn yóò sì dá mi lẹ́bi ikú.
19 and shall deliver him unto the Gentiles to mock, and to scourge, and to crucify: and the third day he shall be raised up.
Wọn yóò sì fà á lé àwọn kèfèrí lọ́wọ́ láti fi ṣe ẹlẹ́yà àti láti náà án, àti láti kàn mi mọ́ àgbélébùú, ní ọjọ́ kẹta, yóò jí dìde.”
20 Then came to him the mother of the sons of Zebedee with her sons, worshipping [him], and asking a certain thing of him.
Nígbà náà ni ìyá àwọn ọmọ Sebede bá àwọn ọmọ rẹ̀ wá sọ́dọ̀ Jesu, ó wólẹ̀ lórí eékún rẹ̀, o béèrè fún ojúrere rẹ̀.
21 And he said unto her, What wouldest thou? She saith unto him, Command that these my two sons may sit, one on thy right hand, and one on thy left hand, in thy kingdom.
Jesu béèrè pé, “Kí ni ìwọ ń fẹ́?” Ó sì dáhùn pé, “Jẹ́ kí àwọn ọmọ mi méjèèjì jókòó ní apá ọ̀tún àti apá òsì lórí ìtẹ́ ìjọba rẹ?”
22 But Jesus answered and said, Ye know not what ye ask. Are ye able to drink the cup that I am about to drink? They say unto him, We are able.
Ṣùgbọ́n Jesu dáhùn ó sì wí pé, “Ẹ̀yin kò mọ ohun tí ẹ̀yin ń béèrè, ẹ̀yin ha le mu nínú ago tí èmi ó mu?” Wọ́n dáhùn pé, “Àwa lè mu ún.”
23 He saith unto them, My cup indeed ye shall drink: but to sit on my right hand, and on [my] left hand, is not mine to give, but [it is for them] for whom it hath been prepared of my Father.
Jesu sì wí fún wọn pé, “Dájúdájú, ẹ̀yin yóò mu nínú ago mi, ṣùgbọ́n èmi kò ní àṣẹ láti sọ irú ènìyàn tí yóò jókòó ní apá ọ̀tún tàbí apá òsì. Baba mi ti pèsè ààyè wọ̀n-ọn-nì sílẹ̀ fún kìkì àwọn tí ó yàn.”
24 And when the ten heard it, they were moved with indignation concerning the two brethren.
Nígbà tí àwọn ọmọ-ẹ̀yìn mẹ́wàá ìyókù sì gbọ́ èyí, wọ́n bínú sí àwọn arákùnrin méjì yìí.
25 But Jesus called them unto him, and said, Ye know that the rulers of the Gentiles lord it over them, and their great ones exercise authority over them.
Ṣùgbọ́n Jesu pé wọ́n papọ̀, ó wí pé, “Dájúdájú, ẹ̀yin mọ̀ pé àwọn ọba aláìkọlà a máa lo agbára lórí wọn, àwọn ẹni ńlá láàrín wọn a sì máa fi ọlá tẹrí àwọn tí ó wà lábẹ́ wọn ba.
26 Not so shall it be among you: but whosoever would become great among you shall be your minister;
Ṣùgbọ́n èyí yàtọ̀ láàrín yín. Dípò bẹ́ẹ̀, ẹni tí ó bá ń fẹ́ ṣe olórí láàrín yín, ní láti ṣe bí ìránṣẹ́ fún yín ni,
27 and whosoever would be first among you shall be your servant:
àti ẹni tí ó bá fẹ́ ṣe olórí nínú yín, ẹ jẹ́ kí ó máa ṣe ọmọ ọ̀dọ̀ yin.
28 even as the Son of man came not to be ministered unto, but to minister, and to give his life a ransom for many.
Gẹ́gẹ́ bí Ọmọ Ènìyàn kò ṣe wá sí ayé, kí ẹ lè ṣe ìránṣẹ́ fún un, ṣùgbọ́n láti ṣe ìránṣẹ́ fún yín, àti láti fi ẹ̀mí rẹ ṣe ìràpadà ọ̀pọ̀ ènìyàn.”
29 And as they went out from Jericho, a great multitude followed him.
Bí Jesu àti àwọn ọmọ-ẹ̀yìn rẹ̀ ti ń fi ìlú Jeriko sílẹ̀, ọ̀pọ̀ ènìyàn sì wọ́ tẹ̀lé e lẹ́yìn.
30 And behold, two blind men sitting by the way side, when they heard that Jesus was passing by, cried out, saying, Lord, have mercy on us, thou son of David.
Àwọn ọkùnrin afọ́jú méjì sì jókòó lẹ́bàá ọ̀nà, nígbà tí wọ́n sí gbọ́ pé Jesu ń kọjá lọ, wọ́n bẹ̀rẹ̀ sí í kígbe pé, “Olúwa, Ọmọ Dafidi, ṣàánú fún wa!”
31 And the multitude rebuked them, that they should hold their peace: but they cried out the more, saying, Lord, have mercy on us, thou son of David.
Àwọn ènìyàn sí bá wọn wí pé kí wọn dákẹ́, ṣùgbọ́n wọ́n kígbe sókè sí i. “Olúwa, ọmọ Dafidi, ṣàánú fún wa!”
32 And Jesus stood still, and called them, and said, What will ye that I should do unto you?
Jesu dúró lójú ọ̀nà, ó sì pè wọ́n, Ó béèrè pé, “Kí ni ẹ̀yin fẹ́ kí èmi ṣe fún yín?”
33 They say unto him, Lord, that our eyes may be opened.
Wọ́n dáhùn pé, “Olúwa, àwa fẹ́ kí a ríran.”
34 And Jesus, being moved with compassion, touched their eyes: and straightway they received their sight, and followed him.
Àánú wọn sì ṣe Jesu, ó fi ọwọ́ kan ojú wọn. Lójúkan náà, wọ́n sì ríran, wọ́n sì ń tọ̀ ọ́ lẹ́yìn.
