Mattheum 13
1 In illo die exiens Iesus de domo, sedebat secus mare.
On that day, Jesus, going out of the house, was sitting near the sea:
2 Et congregatæ sunt ad eum turbæ multæ, ita ut naviculam ascendens sederet: et omnis turba stabat in littore,
and there were gathered unto him, large multitudes, so that, he, into a boat, entered, and was sitting, and, all the multitude, on the beach was standing.
3 et locutus est eis multa in parabolis, dicens: Ecce exiit qui seminat, seminare.
And he spake unto them many things, in parables, saying: Lo! the sower went forth to sow, —
4 Et dum seminat, quædam ceciderunt secus viam, et venerunt volucres cæli, et comederunt ea.
and, as he sowed, some, indeed, fell by the pathway, and, the birds, came, and devoured it;
5 Alia autem ceciderunt in petrosa, ubi non habebant terram multam: et continuo exorta sunt, quia non habebant altitudinem terræ.
And, some, fell on the rocky places, where it had not much earth, —and, straightway, it sprang up, because if had no depth of earth;
6 sole autem orto æstuaverunt: et quia non habebant radicem, aruerunt.
and, the sun arising, it was scorched, and, because it had no root, it withered away;
7 Alia autem ceciderunt in spinas: et creverunt spinæ, et suffocaverunt ea.
And, some, fell upon the thorns, and the thorns came up, and choked it;
8 Alia autem ceciderunt in terram bonam: et dabant fructum aliud centesimum, aliud sexagesimum, aliud trigesimum.
But, some, fell upon the good ground, and did yield fruit, —this, indeed a hundred fold, and, that, sixty, and, the other, thirty.
9 Qui habet aures audiendi, audiat.
He that hath ears, let him hear.
10 Et accedentes discipuli dixerunt ei: Quare in parabolis loqueris eis?
And the disciples, coming near, said to him, Wherefore, in parables, art thou speaking to them?
11 Qui respondens, ait illis: Quia vobis datum est nosse mysteria regni cælorum: illis autem non est datum.
And, he, answering, said, Because, unto you, hath it been given, to get to know the sacred secrets of the kingdom of the heavens, —whereas, unto them, hath it not been given.
12 Qui enim habet, dabitur ei, et abundabit: qui autem non habet, et quod habet auferetur ab eo.
For, whosoever hath, it shall be given, to him, and he shall be made to abound, —but, whoever hath not, even what he hath, shall be taken from him?
13 Ideo in parabolis loquor eis: quia videntes non vident, et audientes non audiunt, neque intelligunt.
For this reason, in parables, unto them, do I speak, —because, seeing, they see not, and, hearing, they hear not, —neither do they understand.
14 Et adimpletur in eis prophetia Isaiæ dicentis: Auditu audietis, et non intelligetis: et videntes videbitis, et non videbitis:
And, again is being fulfilled in them, the prophecy of Isaiah, which saith, —They shall, surely hear, and yet will not understand, and, surely see, and yet not perceive;
15 Incrassatum est enim cor populi huius, et auribus graviter audierunt, et oculos suos clauserunt: ne quando videant oculis, et auribus audiant, et corde intelligant, et convertantur, et sanem eos.
For the heart of this people hath become dense, and, with their ears, heavily have they heard, and, their eyes, have they closed, —lest, once they should see with their eyes, and, with their ears, should hear, and, with their hearts, should understand, and return; when I would certainly heal them.
16 Vestri autem beati oculi quia vident, et aures vestræ quia audiunt.
But happy are, your, eyes, that they see, and your ears, that they hear;
17 Amen quippe dico vobis, quia multi prophetæ, et iusti cupierunt videre quæ videtis, et non viderunt: et audire quæ auditis, et non audierunt.
For, verily, I say unto you—Many prophets and righteous men, have coveted to see what ye see, and have not seen, and to hear what ye hear, and have not heard.
18 Vos ergo audite parabolam seminantis.
Hear, ye, then, the parable of him that sowed: —
19 Omnis, qui audit verbum regni, et non intelligit, venit malus, et rapit quod seminatum est in corde eius: hic est qui secus viam seminatus est.
When anyone heareth the word of the kingdom, and understandeth it not, the wicked one cometh, and catcheth up that which hath been sown in his heart, —this, is he, by the pathway, sown.
20 Qui autem super petrosa seminatus est, hic est, qui verbum audit, et continuo cum gaudio accipit illud:
And, he on the rocky places sown, the same, is he that, heareth the word, and, straightway, with joy, receiveth it;
21 non habet autem in se radicem, sed est temporalis. facta autem tribulatione et persecutione propter verbum, continuo scandalizatur.
yet hath he no root in himself, but is, only for a season, —and, there arising, tribulation or persecution because of the word, straightway, he findeth cause of stumbling.
22 Qui autem seminatus est in spinis, hic est, qui verbum audit, et solicitudo sæculi istius, et fallacia divitiarum suffocat verbum, et sine fructu efficitur. (aiōn g165)
And, he among the thorns sown, the same, is he that, heareth the word, —and, the anxiety of the age and the deceit of riches, choke up the word, and, unfruitful, it becometh. (aiōn g165)
23 Qui vero in terram bonam seminatus est, hic est qui audit verbum, et intelligit, et fructum affert, et facit aliud quidem centesimum, aliud autem sexagesimum, aliud vero trigesimum.
But, he on the good ground sown, the same, is he who doth hear and understand the word, who, indeed, beareth fruit and produceth, —this, a hundred, and, that, sixty, and, the other, thirty.
24 Aliam parabolam proposuit illis, dicens: Simile factum est regnum cælorum homini, qui seminavit bonum semen in agro suo.
Another parable, put he before them, saying—The kingdom of the heavens hath become like a man sowing good seed in his field;
25 cum autem dormirent homines, venit inimicus eius, et superseminavit zizania in medio tritici, et abiit.
and, while men were sleeping, his enemy came, and sowed over darnel, in among the wheat, —and away he went.
26 Cum autem crevisset herba, et fructum fecisset, tunc apparuerunt et zizania.
And, when the blade shot up, and brought forth, fruit, then, appeared, the darnel also.
27 Accedentes autem servi patrisfamilias, dixerunt ei: Domine, nonne bonum semen seminasti in agro tuo? Unde ergo habet zizania?
And the servants of the householder, coming near, said to him, —Sir! was it not, good seed, thou didst sow in thy field? Whence then hath it, darnel?
28 Et ait illis: Inimicus homo hoc fecit: Servi autem dixerunt ei, Vis, imus, et colligimus ea?
And he said unto them—An enemy, hath, done this. And they say, unto him—Wilt thou, then, that we go and collect it?
29 Et ait: Non: ne forte colligentes zizania, eradicetis simul cum eis et triticum.
And, he, saith—Nay! lest, at any time, while collecting the darnel, ye uproot, along with it, the wheat:
30 Sinite utraque crescere usque ad messem, et in tempore messis dicam messoribus: Colligite primum zizania, et alligate ea in fasciculos ad comburendum, triticum autem congregate in horreum meum.
Suffer both to grow together until the harvest, and at, harvest time, I will say unto the reapers, —Collect ye first, the darnel, and bind it into bundles, with a view to the burning it up; but, the wheat, be gathering it into my barn.
31 Aliam parabolam proposuit eis dicens: Simile est regnum cælorum grano sinapis, quod accipiens homo seminavit in agro suo:
Another parable, put he before them, saying—The kingdom of the heavens is like unto, a grain of mustard seed, which a man took and sowed in his field;
32 quod minimum quidem est omnibus seminibus: cum autem creverit, maius est omnibus oleribus, et fit arbor, ita ut volucres cæli veniant, et habitent in ramis eius.
which, indeed, is, less, than all seeds, but, when grown, is greater than garden-plants, and becometh a tree, —so that the birds of heaven come, and lodge among its branches.
33 Aliam parabolam locutus est eis. Simile est regnum cælorum fermento, quod acceptum mulier abscondit in farinæ satis tribus, donec fermentatum est totum.
Another parable, [spake he unto them]: —The kingdom of the heavens is like, unto leaven, which a woman took and hid in three measures of flour until, the whole, was leavened.
34 Hæc omnia locutus est Iesus in parabolis ad turbas: et sine parabolis non loquebatur eis:
All these things, spake Jesus in parables, unto the multitudes, and, without a parable, was he speaking, nothing, unto them:
35 ut impleretur quod dictum erat per Prophetam dicentem: Aperiam in parabolis os meum, eructabo abscondita a constitutione mundi.
that it might be fulfilled, which was spoken through the prophet, saying—I will open, in parables, my mouth, I will bring up things hidden from the foundation!
36 Tunc, dimissis turbis, venit in domum: et accesserunt ad eum discipuli eius, dicentes: Edissere nobis parabolam zizaniorum agri.
Then, dismissing the multitudes, he went into the house, and his disciples came near to him, saying—Make quite plain to us the parable of the darnel of the field.
37 Qui respondens ait illis: Qui seminat bonum semen, est Filius hominis.
And, he, answering, said—He that soweth the good seed, is the Son of Man;
38 Ager autem, est mundus. Bonum vero semen, hi sunt filii regnum. Zizania autem, filii sunt nequam.
And, the field, is the world, and, the good seed, these are the sons of the kingdom, —and, the darnel seeds, are the sons of the evil one;
39 Inimicus autem, qui seminavit ea, est diabolus. Messis vero, consummatio sæculi est. Messores autem, angeli sunt. (aiōn g165)
And, the enemy that sowed them, is the adversary, and, the harvest, is, the conclusion of an age, and, the reapers, are, messengers. (aiōn g165)
40 Sicut ergo colliguntur zizania, et igni comburuntur: sic erit in consummatione sæculi. (aiōn g165)
Just, therefore, as collected is the darnel, and, with fire is burned, so, will it be in the conclusion of the age: — (aiōn g165)
41 mittet filius hominis angelos suos, et colligent de regno eius omnia scandala, et eos, qui faciunt iniquitatem:
The Son of Man will send forth his messengers, and they will collect, out of his kingdom, all the causes of stumbling, and the doers of lawlessness,
42 et mittent eos in caminum ignis. Ibi erit fletus, et stridor dentium.
and will cast them into the furnace of fire: there, will be wailing and gnashing of teeth.
43 Tunc iusti fulgebunt sicut sol in regno Patris eorum. Qui habet aures audiendi, audiat.
Then, the righteous, will shine forth as the sun, in the kingdom of their Father. He that hath ears, let him hear!
44 Simile est regnum cælorum thesauro abscondito in agro: quem qui invenit homo, abscondit, et præ gaudio illius vadit, et vendit universa quæ habet, et emit agrum illum.
The kingdom of the heavens is like unto, a treasure hid in the field, which a man, finding, hid, —and, by reason of his joy, withdraweth and selleth whatsoever he hath, and buyeth that field.
45 Iterum simile est regnum cælorum homini negotiatori, quærenti bonas margaritas.
Again, the kingdom of the heavens is, like, unto, a merchant, seeking beautiful pearls, —
46 Inventa autem una pretiosa margarita, abiit, et vendidit omnia quæ habuit, et emit eam.
and, finding one very precious pearl, departing, he at once sold all things, whatsoever he had, and bought it.
47 Iterum simile est regnum cælorum sagenæ missæ in mare, et ex omni genere piscium congreganti.
Again, the kingdom of the heavens is like unto, a large drag-net, cast into the sea and gathering of every kind, —
48 Quam, cum impleta esset, educentes, et secus littus sedentes, elegerunt bonis in vasa, malos autem foras miserunt.
which, when it was filled, they dragged up on the beach, and, sitting down, collected the good into vessels, but, the worthless, forth they cast.
49 Sic erit in consummatione sæculi: exibunt angeli, et separabunt malos de medio iustorum, (aiōn g165)
So, will it be in the conclusion of the age: The messengers will come forth, and separate the wicked from among the righteous; (aiōn g165)
50 et mittent eos in caminum ignis: ibi erit fletus, et stridor dentium.
and will cast them into the furnace of fire: there, will be wailing and gnashing of teeth.
51 Intellexistis hæc omnia? Dicunt ei: Etiam.
Have ye understood all these things? They say unto him, Yea!
52 Ait illis: Ideo omnis scriba doctus in regno cælorum, similis est homini patrifamilias, qui profert de thesauro suo nova et vetera.
And, he, said unto them—Wherefore, every scribe, discipled unto the kingdom of the heavens, is like unto a householder, who putteth forth out of his treasure, things new and old.
53 Et factum est, cum consummasset Iesus parabolas istas, transiit inde.
And it came to pass, when Jesus had finished these parables, he removed from thence;
54 Et veniens in patriam suam, docebat eos in synagogis eorum, ita ut mirarentur, et dicerent: Unde huic sapientia hæc, et virtutes?
and, coming into his own city, began teaching them in their synagogue, so that with astonishment were they being struck, and were saying—Whence, hath, this one, this wisdom, and the mighty works?
55 Nonne hic est fabri filius? Nonne mater eius dicitur Maria, et fratres eius, Iacobus, et Ioseph, et Simon, et Iudas:
Is not, this one, the carpenter’s, son? Is not, his mother, called Mary, and are not his brethren—James and Joseph, and Simon, and Judas?
56 et sorores eius, nonne omnes apud nos sunt? Unde ergo huic omnia ista?
and, his sisters, are they not all with us? Whence, then hath, this one, all these things?
57 Et scandalizabantur in eo. Iesus autem dixit eis: Non est propheta sine honore nisi in patria sua, et in domo sua.
And they began to find cause of stumbling in him. But, Jesus, said unto them—A prophet is not without honour, save in his city, and in his house.
58 Et non fecit ibi virtutes multas propter incredulitatem illorum.
And he did not, there, many mighty works, because of their unbelief.
