Matio 13
1 Ary tamin’ izany andro izany dia nivoaka avy tao an-trano Jesosy ka nipetraka teo amoron’ ny ranomasina.
That same day Jesus went out of the house and sat by the sea.
2 Ary nisy vahoaka betsaka tafangona teo aminy, dia niditra teo an-tsambokely Izy ka nipetraka; ary ny vahoaka rehetra kosa dia teny amoron-dranomasina.
Such large crowds gathered around Him that He got into a boat and sat down, while all the people stood on the shore.
3 Ary nilaza zavatra maro taminy tamin’ ny fanoharana Izy ka nanao hoe: Indro, nivoaka ny mpamafy mba hamafy;
And He told them many things in parables, saying, “A farmer went out to sow his seed.
4 ary raha namafy izy, ny sasany dia voafafy teny amoron-dalana; dia avy ny vorona ka nandany azy.
And as he was sowing, some seed fell along the path, and the birds came and devoured it.
5 Ary ny sasany dia voafafy teny amin’ ny tany marivo ambony vatolampy; dia nalaky nitrebona ireny, satria tsy nisy tany lalina.
Some fell on rocky ground, where it did not have much soil. It sprang up quickly because the soil was shallow.
6 Fa rehefa niposaka ny masoandro, dia nalazo ireny, ary satria tsy nanam-paka, dia maty izy.
But when the sun rose, the seedlings were scorched, and they withered because they had no root.
7 Ary ny sasany dia voafafy teny amin’ ny tsilo; ary ny tsilo naniry ka nangeja azy.
Other seed fell among thorns, which grew up and choked the seedlings.
8 Ary ny sasany dia voafafy teny amin’ ny tany tsara, dia namoa: ny sasany avy zato heny, ary ny sasany avy enim-polo heny, ary ny sasany avy telo-polo heny.
Still other seed fell on good soil and produced a crop—a hundredfold, sixtyfold, or thirtyfold.
9 Izay manan-tsofina, aoka izy hihaino.
He who has ears, let him hear.”
10 Ary dia nanatona ny mpianany ka nanao taminy hoe: Nahoana no fanoharana no itenenanao aminy?
Then the disciples came to Jesus and asked, “Why do You speak to the people in parables?”
11 Ary namaly Izy ka nanao taminy hoe: Satria ianareo no navela hahalala ny zava-miafina ny amin’ ny fanjakan’ ny lanitra, fa ireny kosa tsy mba navela.
He replied, “The knowledge of the mysteries of the kingdom of heaven has been given to you, but not to them.
12 Fa izay manana no homena, ka hanana be dia be izy; fa izay tsy manana kosa, na izay ananany aza dia hesorina aminy.
Whoever has will be given more, and he will have an abundance. Whoever does not have, even what he has will be taken away from him.
13 Ary noho izany dia fanoharana no itenenako aminy: satria mijery izy, fa tsy mahita; ary mandre izy, fa tsy mihaino, na mahalala.
This is why I speak to them in parables: ‘Though seeing, they do not see; though hearing, they do not hear or understand.’
14 Dia tanteraka aminy ny faminanian’ Isaia, izay manao hoe: Handre mandrakariva ihany ianareo, fa tsy hahafantatra: Ary hijery mandrakariva ihany ianareo, fa tsy hahita;
In them the prophecy of Isaiah is fulfilled: ‘You will be ever hearing but never understanding; you will be ever seeing but never perceiving.
15 Fa efa adala ny fon’ izao olona izao. Ary efa lalodalovana ny sofiny, Ary efa nakimpiny ny masony, Fandrao hahita ny masony, Sy handre ny sofiny, Ka hahalala ny fony, Dia hibebaka izy, Ka hahasitrana azy Aho.
For this people’s heart has grown callous; they hardly hear with their ears, and they have closed their eyes. Otherwise they might see with their eyes, hear with their ears, understand with their hearts, and turn, and I would heal them.’
16 Fa sambatra ny masonareo, fa mahita, ary ny sofinareo, fa mandre.
But blessed are your eyes because they see, and your ears because they hear.
17 Fa lazaiko aminareo marina tokoa fa maro ny mpaminany sy ny olona marina naniry hahita izay hitanareo, nefa tsy mba nahita; ary naniry handre izay renareo, nefa tsy mba nandre.
For truly I tell you, many prophets and righteous men longed to see what you see but did not see it, and to hear what you hear but did not hear it.
18 Koa amin’ izany dia henoinareo ny fanoharana ny amin’ ny mpamafy:
Consider, then, the parable of the sower:
19 Raha misy mandre ny tenin’ ny fanjakana, fa tsy mahalala, dia avy ilay ratsy ka manaisotra izay nafafy tao am-pony. Dia izany no ilay nafafy teny amoron-dalana.
When anyone hears the message of the kingdom but does not understand it, the evil one comes and snatches away what was sown in his heart. This is the seed sown along the path.
20 Fa ilay nafafy teny amin’ ny tany marivo ambony vatolampy dia izay mandre ny teny ka malaky mandray azy amin’ ny hafaliana;
The seed sown on rocky ground is the one who hears the word and at once receives it with joy.
21 nefa tsy manam-paka ao anatiny izy, fa maharitra vetivety foana; koa raha avy izay fahoriana na fanenjehana noho ny teny, dia malaky tafintohina izy.
But since he has no root, he remains for only a season. When trouble or persecution comes because of the word, he quickly falls away.
22 Ary ilay nafafy teny amin’ ny tsilo dia izay mandre ny teny ary ny fiahiahiana izao fiainana izao sy ny fitaky ny harena mangeja ny teny, ka dia tsy mamoa izy. (aiōn g165)
The seed sown among the thorns is the one who hears the word, but the worries of this life and the deceitfulness of wealth choke the word, and it becomes unfruitful. (aiōn g165)
23 Fa ilay nafafy teny amin’ ny tany tsara kosa dia izay mandre ny teny ka mahalala; dia izy no mamoa ka vokatra: ny sasany avy zato heny ary ny sasany avy enim-polo heny, ary ny sasany avy telo-polo heny.
But the seed sown on good soil is the one who hears the word and understands it. He indeed bears fruit and produces a crop—a hundredfold, sixtyfold, or thirtyfold.”
24 Ary nanao fanoharana hafa koa taminy Izy ka nanao hoe: Ny fanjakan’ ny lanitra dia tahaka ny lehilahy anankiray izay namafy voa tsara tany an-tanimbariny;
Jesus put before them another parable: “The kingdom of heaven is like a man who sowed good seed in his field.
25 fa raha natory ny olona, dia avy ny fahavalony ka namafy voan-tsimparifary teny amin’ ny vary, dia lasa nandeha.
But while everyone was asleep, his enemy came and sowed weeds among the wheat, and slipped away.
26 Ary rehefa naniry ny vary ka niteraka dia niposaka koa ny tsimparifary.
When the wheat sprouted and bore grain, then the weeds also appeared.
27 Dia avy ny mpanompon-dralehilahy ka nanao taminy hoe: Tompoko, tsy voa tsara va no nafafinao tany an-tanimbarinao? koa avy taiza kosa ny tsimparifary? Dia hoy izy taminy:
The owner’s servants came to him and said, ‘Sir, didn’t you sow good seed in your field? Where then did the weeds come from?’
28 Fahavalo no nanao izany. Ary ny mpanompony nanao taminy hoe: Koa tianao va handehananay hanongotra sy hanangona azy?
‘An enemy did this,’ he replied. So the servants asked him, ‘Do you want us to go and pull them up?’
29 Fa hoy izy: Tsia, fandrao, raha manongotra ny tsimparifary ianareo, dia hongotanareo miaraka aminy koa ny vary.
‘No,’ he said, ‘if you pull the weeds now, you might uproot the wheat with them.
30 Aoka ihany hiara-maniry izy roroa ambara-pihavin’ ny fararano; ary amin’ ny fararano dia holazaiko amin’ ny mpijinja hoe: Angony aloha ny tsimparifary, ka ataovy amboarany mba hodorana; fa ny vary dia taomy ho any an-tsompitro.
Let both grow together until the harvest. At that time I will tell the harvesters: First collect the weeds and tie them in bundles to be burned; then gather the wheat into my barn.’”
31 Ary nanao fanoharana hafa koa taminy Izy ka nanao hoe: Ny fanjakan’ ny lanitra dia tahaka ny voan-tsinapy izay nalain’ olona ka nafafiny tany an-tsahany;
He put before them another parable: “The kingdom of heaven is like a mustard seed that a man planted in his field.
32 fa kely noho ny voa rehetra izy, kanefa rehefa maniry, dia lehibe noho ny anana ka tonga hazo, dia avy ny voro-manidina ka mitoetra ao amin’ ny rantsany.
Although it is the smallest of all seeds, yet it grows into the largest of garden plants and becomes a tree, so that the birds of the air come and nest in its branches.”
33 Ary nanao fanoharana hafa koa taminy Izy hoe: Ny fanjakan’ ny lanitra dia tahaka ny masirasira, izay nalain’ ny vehivavy anankiray ka nataony tao amin’ ny koba intelon’ ny famarana, mandra-pahazon’ ny masirasira azy rehetra.
He told them still another parable: “The kingdom of heaven is like leaven that a woman took and mixed into three measures of flour, until all of it was leavened.”
34 Fanoharana no nilazan’ i Jesosy izany zavatra rehetra izany tamin’ ny vahoaka, ary tsy nisy nolazainy taminy, afa-tsy tamin’ ny fanoharana,
Jesus spoke all these things to the crowds in parables. He did not tell them anything without using a parable.
35 mba hahatanteraka izay nampilazaina ny mpaminany hoe: Hiloa-bava hilaza fanoharana Aho; Hanambara zavatra izay nafenina hatrizay nanorenana izao tontolo izao Aho.
So was fulfilled what was spoken through the prophet: “I will open My mouth in parables; I will utter things hidden since the foundation of the world.”
36 Ary rehefa nampody ny vahoaka Jesosy, dia niditra tao an-trano Izy, ary ny mpianany nankao aminy ka nanao hoe: Lazao aminay ny hevitry ny fanoharana ny amin’ ny tsimparifary tany an-tanimbary.
Then Jesus dismissed the crowds and went into the house. His disciples came to Him and said, “Explain to us the parable of the weeds in the field.”
37 Ary namaly Izy ka nanao hoe: Ny mpamafy ny voa tsara dia ny Zanak’ olona;
He replied, “The One who sows the good seed is the Son of Man.
38 ny tanimbary dia izao tontolo izao; ny voa tsara dia ny zanaky ny fanjakana; ny tsimparifary dia ny zanak’ ilay ratsy;
The field is the world, and the good seed represents the sons of the kingdom. The weeds are the sons of the evil one,
39 ny fahavalo izay namafy izany dia ny devoly; ny fararano dia ny fahataperan’ izao tontolo izao; ary ny mpijinja dia anjely. (aiōn g165)
and the enemy who sows them is the devil. The harvest is the end of the age, and the harvesters are angels. (aiōn g165)
40 Koa tahaka ny anangonana ny tsimparifary sy andoroana azy amin’ ny afo, dia toy izany no hatao amin’ ny fahataperan’ izao tontolo izao. (aiōn g165)
As the weeds are collected and burned in the fire, so will it be at the end of the age. (aiōn g165)
41 Ny Zanak’ olona haniraka ny anjeliny, ary ireny dia hanangona ka hamoaka amin’ ny fanjakany ny zavatra mahatafintohina rehetra mbamin’ izay manao meloka,
The Son of Man will send out His angels, and they will weed out of His kingdom every cause of sin and all who practice lawlessness.
42 dia hanipy azy any amin’ ny fandoroana lehibe mirehitra afo izy; any no hisy ny fitomaniana sy ny fikitroha-nify.
And they will throw them into the fiery furnace, where there will be weeping and gnashing of teeth.
43 Ary amin’ izany ny marina dia hamirapiratra tahaka ny masoandro any amin’ ny fanjakan’ ny Rainy. Izay manan-tsofina, aoka izy hihaino.
Then the righteous will shine like the sun in the kingdom of their Father. He who has ears, let him hear.
44 Ary ny fanjakan’ ny lanitra dia tahaka ny harena nafenina tany an-tsaha, izay hitan’ olona, ka dia nafeniny; ary noho ny hafaliany dia lasa nandeha izy ka nivarotra ny fananany rehetra, dia nividy izany saha izany.
The kingdom of heaven is like treasure hidden in a field. When a man found it, he hid it again, and in his joy he went and sold all he had and bought that field.
45 Ary koa, ny fanjakan’ ny lanitra dia tahaka ny mpandranto anankiray izay nikatsaka vato soa;
Again, the kingdom of heaven is like a merchant in search of fine pearls.
46 ary rehefa nahita vato soa iray saro-bidy izy, dia lasa nivarotra ny fananany rehetra ka nividy azy.
When he found one very precious pearl, he went away and sold all he had and bought it.
47 Ary koa, ny fanjakan’ ny lanitra dia tahaka ny harato-tarihina, izay nalatsaka tao amin’ ny ranomasina ka nahavory ny samy hafa karazana rehetra;
Once again, the kingdom of heaven is like a net that was cast into the sea and caught all kinds of fish.
48 ary rehefa feno izany, dia notarihiny ho eny an-tanety, dia nipetraka ny olona ka nifantina ny tsara hataony ao an-karona, fa ny ratsy nariany.
When it was full, the men pulled it ashore. Then they sat down and sorted the good fish into containers, but threw the bad away.
49 Dia tahaka izany no hatao amin’ ny fahataperan’ izao tontolo izao; hivoaka ny anjely ka hanavaka ny ratsy fanahy hisaraka amin’ ny marina, (aiōn g165)
So will it be at the end of the age: The angels will come and separate the wicked from the righteous, (aiōn g165)
50 dia hatsipiny any amin’ ny fandoroana lehibe mirehitra afo izy; any no hisy ny fitomaniana sy ny fikitroha-nify.
and throw them into the fiery furnace, where there will be weeping and gnashing of teeth.
51 Efa azonareo va izany rehetra izany? Hoy ireo taminy: Eny.
Have you understood all these things?” “Yes,” they answered.
52 Dia hoy Izy taminy: Koa amin’ izany ary ny mpanora-dalàna rehetra izay nampianarina ho amin’ ny fanjakan’ ny lanitra dia samy tahaka ny tompon-trano, izay mamoaka avy amin’ ny firaketany zava-baovao sy ela.
Then He told them, “For this reason, every scribe who has been discipled in the kingdom of heaven is like a homeowner who brings out of his storeroom new treasures as well as old.”
53 Ary rehefa vitan’ i Jesosy ireo fanoharana ireo, dia niala teo Izy.
When Jesus had finished these parables, He withdrew from that place.
54 Ary nony tonga tany amin’ ny taniny Izy, dia nampianatra ny olona tao amin’ ny synagoga, ary talanjona ny olona ka nanao hoe: Avy taiza re no nahazoan’ ilehity izany fahendrena sy asa lehibe izany?
Coming to His hometown, He taught the people in their synagogue, and they were astonished. “Where did this man get such wisdom and miraculous powers?” they asked.
55 Tsy Ilehity va ilay Zanaky ny mpandrafitra? Tsy Maria va no anaran’ ny reniny? Ary tsy Jakoba sy Josefa sy Simona ary Jodasy va no rahalahiny?
“Isn’t this the carpenter’s son? Isn’t His mother’s name Mary, and aren’t His brothers James, Joseph, Simon, and Judas?
56 Ary ny anabaviny, moa tsy eto amintsika avokoa va izy? Koa avy taiza no nahazoan’ ilehity izany zavatra rehetra izany?
Aren’t all His sisters with us as well? Where then did this man get all these things?”
57 Ary tafintohina taminy izy. Fa hoy Jesosy taminy: Tsy misy mpaminany tsy hajaina, afa-tsy amin’ ny taniny sy ny mpianakaviny ihany.
And they took offense at Him. But Jesus said to them, “Only in his hometown and in his own household is a prophet without honor.”
58 Ary tsy nanao asa lehibe maro teo Izy noho ny tsi-finoan’ ireo.
And He did not do many miracles there, because of their unbelief.
