Mataio 20
1 NO ka mea, ua like ke aupuni o ka lani me kekahi kanaka mea hale, i hele aku la i kakahiaka nui e hoolimalima i ka poe paaua no kona pawaina.
"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 Hoolimalima oia i kekahi poe paaua i ka denari hookahi no ka la hookahi; hoouna aku la oia ia lakou ma kona pawaina.
and having made an agreement with them for a shilling a day, sent them into his vineyard.
3 Hele hou aku la ia iwaho i ke kolu o ka hora, ike aku la ia i kekahi poe kanaka e ku hana ole ana ma kahi kuai.
About nine o'clock he went out and saw others loitering in the market-place.
4 I aku la oia ia lakou, E haele hoi oukou i ka pawaina, a o ka mea pono, na'u ia e uku aku ia oukou. A hele aku la lakou.
To these also he said, "'You also, go into the vineyard, and whatever is right I will give you.'
5 Hele hou aku la ia iwaho, i ke ono a i ka iwa o ka hora, a hana iho la e like mamua.
"So they went. Again about twelve, and about three o'clock, he went out and did the same.
6 A i ka hora umikumamakahi, hele aku la ia iwaho, ike aku la i kekahi poe e ku hana ole ana, i aku la oia ia lakou, Heaha ka oukou e ku hana ole nei a pau ka la?
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 I mai la lakou ia ia, No ka mea, aohe mea nana makou i hoolimalima. I aku la oia ia lakou, E haele hoi oukou i ka pawaina, a o ka mea pono, e loaa hoi ia ia oukou.
"'Because no one has hired us,' they replied. "'You also, go into the vineyard,' he said.
8 A ahiahi ae la, i aku la ka haku nona ka pawaina i kona puuku, E kahea aku oe i ka poe paaua, a e haawi aku ia lakou i ka uku, mai ka poe hope mai a hiki aku i ka poe mua.
"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 A hele mai la ka poe i hoolimalimaia i ka hora umikumamakahi, loaa pakahi ia lakou ka denari.
"When those came who had begun at five o'clock, they received a shilling apiece;
10 A hele mai la ka poe i hoolimalimaia mamua, manao iho la lakou e loaa mai ka pakela uku, a loaa pakahi ia lakou ka denari.
and when the first came, they expected to get more, but they also each got the shilling.
11 A loaa iho la, ohumu iho la lakou i ka mea hale,
So when they had received it, they grumbled against the employer, saying,
12 I ae la, o keia poe hope, hookahi wale no hora o ka lakou hana ana, a ua hoohalike mai oe ia lakou me makou, ka poe hooikaika i ka wa luhi a me ka wela o ka la.
"'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 Olelo aku la ia, i aku la i kekahi o lakou, E ka hoalauna, aole au i hana ino aku ia oe, aole anei oe i ae mai ia'u no ka denari hookahi?
"'My friend,' he answered to one of them, 'I am doing you no injustice. Did you not agree with me for a shilling?
14 E lawe oe i kau, a e hele. O ko'u makemake no e haawi aku na keia poe mahope e like me kau.
Take your money and go. I choose to give this last comer just as much as I give you.
15 Aole anei au e pono ke hana aku me ka'u mamuli o ko'u makemake? Ua hewa anei kou maka i ko'u lokomaikai?
Have I not a right to do what I choose with my own property? Or are you envious because I am generous?'
16 Pela hoi ka poe hope e lilo i mua, a o ka poe mua i hope: no ka mea, he nui na mea i heaia, aka he uuku ka poe i waeia.
"So the last shall be first, and the first last."
17 I ko Iesu hele ana i Ierusalema, kai aku la ia i ka poe haumana he umikumamalua i kahi kaawale ma ke alanui, i mai la ia lakou,
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 Eia ke pii nei kakou i Ierusalema, a e kumakaiaia'ku ke Keiki a ke kanaka i ka poe kahuna nui a me ka poe kakauolelo; a e hoohewa lakou ia ia e make;
"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 A e haawi aku hoi lakou ia ia i ko na aina e e hoomaewaewaia mai ai, a e hahauia mai ai, a e kaulia'i ma ke kea; a po akolu ae, e ala hou mai ia.
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 Alaila, punee mai io na la ka makuwahine o na keiki a Zebedaio, oia me na keiki ana; moe iho la ia imua ona, a noi aku la ia ia i kekahi mea.
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 Ninau mai la o Iesu ia ia, i Heaha kou makemake? I aku la kela, E kauoha oe e noho keia mau keiki a'u elua, o kekahi ma kou lima akau, a o kekahi ma kou lima hema iloko o kou aupuni.
"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 Olelo mai la o Iesu, i mai la, Aole oukou i ike i ka oukou mea e noi mai nei. E hiki no anei ia olua ke inu i ko ke kiaha a'u e inu ai; a e bapetizoia i ka bapetizo ana a'u e bapetizoia mai ai? I aku la laua ia ia, E hiki no ia maua.
"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 Olelo mai la o Iesu ia laua, E inu no auanei olua i ko ke kiaha o'u, a e bapetizoia hoi i ka bapetizo ana a'u e bapetizoia'i; aka, o ka noho ma ko'u lima akau, a ma ko'u lima hema, aole ka'u ia e haawi aku; aia no ia no ka poe nona i hoomakaukauia'i ia mea e ko'u Makua.
"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 A lohe ae la ka umi, ukiuki aku la lakou i ua mau hoahanau la elua.
The other ten heard of this, and their indignation was aroused against the two brothers.
25 Kahea mai la o Iesu ia lakou, i mai la, Ua ike oukou, o na alii o na lahuikanaka, ua hookiekie maluna o lakou, a o na luna hoi, ua hoounauna ia lakou.
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 Aole pela ia oukou; a i manao kekahi o oukou i nui, e pono no e lilo ia i mea lawelawe na oukou.
Not so shall it be among you; but whoever desires to be great among you shall be your servant,
27 A i manao kekahi e lilo i pookela iwaena o oukou, e pono no e lilo ia i kauwa na oukou.
and whoever desires to be first among you shall be your bondservant;
28 Pela hoi, aole i hele mai ke Keiki a ke kanaka no ka lawelaweia mai, aka, no ka lawelawe aku, a me ka haawi aku i kona ola i kumuhoola no na mea he nui loa.
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 I ko lakou hele ana ae mai Ieriko aku, he nui ka poe kanaka i hahai ia ia.
As they were leaving Jericho, an immense crowd following Him,
30 Aia hoi, elua makapo e noho ana ma kapa alanui; lohe ae la laua, o Iesu ke maalo ae, kahea mai la laua, i mai la, E aloha mai oe ia maua, e ka Haku, e ka mamo a Davida.
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 Papa aku la ka poe kanaka ia laua, e hamau: a nui loa ae la ka laua kahea ana, E aloha mai oe ia maua, e ka Haku, e ka mamo a Davida.
The people angrily tried to silence them, but they cried all the louder. "O Sir, Son of David, pity us," they said.
32 Ku malie iho la o Iesu, hea aku la ia laua, i aku la, Heaha ko olua makemake e hana aku ai au ia olua?
So Jesus stood still and called to them. "What shall I do for you?" He asked.
33 I mai la laua ia ia, E ka Haku, e hookaakaaia mai ko maua mau maka.
"Sir, let our eyes be opened," they replied.
34 Aloha aku la o Iesu, hoopa aku la i ko laua mau maka; ike koke ae la ko laua mau maka, a hahai aku la laua ia ia.
Moved with compassion, Jesus touched their eyes, and immediately they regained their sight and followed Him.
