Matio 20
1 Fa ny fanjakan’ ny lanitra dia tahaka ny lehilahy tompon-trano, izay nivoaka maraina koa hanakarama mpiasa ho any an-tanim-boalobony.
For the kingdom of heaven is like a landowner who went out early in the morning to hire workers for his vineyard.
2 Ary rehefa nifanekeny tamin’ ny mpiasa fa ho denaria isan’ andro ny karamany, dia nasainy nankany amin’ ny tanim-boalobony ireny.
After he had agreed with the workers for one denarius a day, he sent them into his vineyard.
3 Ary nivoaka tamin’ ny ora fahatelo izy, dia nahita ny sasany nitoetra foana tany an-tsena,
He went out again about the third hour and saw other workers standing idle in the marketplace.
4 ka hoy izy taminy: Mandehana koa ianareo hankany amin’ ny tanim-boaloboka, fa izay an-keviny marina dia homeko anareo. Ka dia lasa ireny.
To them he said, 'You also, go into the vineyard, and whatever is right I will give you.' So they went to work.
5 Ary nivoaka tamin’ ny ora fahenina sy fahasivy indray izy ka nanao toy izany koa.
Again he went out about the sixth hour and again the ninth hour, and did the same.
6 Ary rehefa tokony ho tamin’ ny ora fahiraika ambin’ ny folo dia nivoaka izy ka nahita ny sasany mitoetra eo, dia hoy izy taminy: Nahoana ianareo no mitoetra foana eto mandritra ny andro?
Once more about the eleventh hour he went out and found others standing idle. He said to them, 'Why do you stand here idle all the day long?'
7 Hoy izy taminy: Satria tsy nisy olona nanakarama anay. Dia hoy ralehilahy taminy: Mandehana koa ianareo mankany amin’ ny tanim-boaloboka.
They said to him, 'Because no one has hired us.' He said to them, 'You also go into the vineyard.'
8 Ary rehefa hariva ny andro, dia hoy ny tompon’ ny tanim-boaloboka tamin’ ny mpitandrina ny raharahany: Antsoy ny mpiasa, ka aloavy ny karamany: atombohy amin’ ireo taoriana ka vao hatramin’ ireo voalohany.
When evening came, the owner of the vineyard said to his manager, 'Call the workers and pay them their wages, beginning from the last to the first.'
9 Ary rehefa tonga ireo nokaramaina tamin’ ny ora fahiraika ambin’ ny folo, dia nahazo denaria misesy avy izy.
When the workers who had been hired at the eleventh hour came, each of them received a denarius.
10 Fa rehefa tonga ireo voalohany, dia nanantena hahazo mihoatra izy; kanjo samy denaria misesy avy ihany no azony.
When the first workers came, they thought that they would receive more, but they also received one denarius each.
11 Ary rehefa nahazo izany izy, dia nimonomonona tamin’ ny tompon-trano ka nanao hoe:
When they received their wages, they complained about the landowner.
12 Ireo olona farany ireo dia niasa ora iray monja, kanefa nataonao mitovy aminay, izay niaritra ny fahatrotrahana sy ny hainandro.
They said, 'These last workers have spent only one hour in work, but you have made them equal to us, we who have borne the burden of the day and the scorching heat.'
13 Fa izy namaly ka nanao tamin’ ny anankiray amin’ ireny hoe: Ry sakaiza, tsy mba manao izay tsy marina aminao aho; tsy efa denaria va no nifanekenao tamiko?
But the owner answered and said to one of them, 'Friend, I do you no wrong. Did you not agree with me for one denarius?
14 Raiso ny anao, ka mandehana; fa ilay farany dia tiako homena toraka ny anao koa.
Take what belongs to you and go your way. I choose to give to these last hired workers just the same as to you.
15 Tsy mahazo manao izay tiako amin’ ny ahy va aho? Ratsy va ny masonao, satria tsara aho?
Do I not have the right to do as I want with what belongs to me? Or are you envious because I am generous?'
16 Dia toy izany, ny farany ho voalohany, ary ny voalohany ho farany.
So the last will be first, and the first last.”
17 Ary Jesosy, nony niakatra ho any Jerosalema, dia naka mangingina ny mpianatra roa ambin’ ny folo lahy ka niteny taminy teny an-dalana hoe:
As Jesus was going up to Jerusalem, he took the twelve aside, and on the way he said to them,
18 Indro, miakatra ho any Jerosalema isika; ary ny Zanak’ olona hatolotra ho amin’ ireo lohan’ ny mpisorona sy ny mpanora-dalàna, dia hohelohiny ho faty Izy
“See, we are going up to Jerusalem, and the Son of Man will be delivered to the chief priests and scribes. They will condemn him to death
19 ka hatolony amin’ ny jentilisa mba hataony ho fihomehezana sy hokapohiny sy hohomboany amin’ ny hazo fijaliana; ary amin’ ny andro fahatelo dia hatsangana indray Izy.
and will deliver him to the Gentiles for them to mock, to flog, and to crucify him. But on the third day he will be raised up.”
20 Ary tamin’ izany dia nanatona an’ i Jesosy ny renin’ ny zanak’ i Zebedio mbamin’ ny zananilahy, dia niankohoka ka nangataka zavatra taminy.
Then the mother of the sons of Zebedee came to Jesus with her sons. She bowed down before him and asked for something from him.
21 Ary hoy Izy taminy: Inona no irinao? Dia hoy ravehivavy taminy: Mandidia mba hipetrahan’ ireto zanako roa lahy ireto, ny anankiray ho eo amin’ ny ankavananao, ary ny anankiray ho eo amin’ ny ankavianao, ao amin’ ny fanjakanao.
Jesus said to her, “What do you wish?” She said to him, “Command that these my two sons may sit, one at your right hand and one at your left hand, in your kingdom.”
22 Fa Jesosy namaly ka nanao hoe: Tsy fantatrareo izay angatahinareo; hainareo va ny misotro amin’ ny kapoaka izay efa hisotroako? Hoy izy roa lahy taminy: Hainay ihany.
But Jesus 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.”
23 Hoy kosa Izy taminy: Hisotro amin’ ny kapoakako tokoa ianareo; fa ny hipetraka eo an-tanako ankavanana sy eo an-tanako ankavia, dia tsy Ahy ny hanome izany; fa izay nanamboaran’ ny Raiko izany no homena.
He said to them, “My cup you will indeed drink. But to sit at my right hand and at my left hand is not mine to give, but it is for those for whom it has been prepared by my Father.”
24 Ary nony nandre izany izy folo lahy, dia tezitra noho ny nataon’ izy mirahalahy.
When the other ten disciples heard this, they were very angry with the two brothers.
25 Fa Jesosy niantso azy hankeo aminy ka nanao hoe: Fantatrareo fa ny andrianan’ ny jentilisa mampanompo azy tokoa, ary ny lehibeny manapaka azy fatratra.
But Jesus called them to himself and said, “You know that the rulers of the Gentiles subjugate them, and their important men exercise authority over them.
26 Fa tsy mba ho toy izany aminareo; fa izay te-ho lehibe aminareo dia ho mpanompo anareo;
But it must not be this way among you. Instead, whoever wishes to become great among you must be your servant,
27 ary izay te-ho ambony indrindra aminareo dia ho mpanomponareo.
and whoever wishes to be first among you must be your servant,
28 Fa tahaka izany, ny Zanak’ olona tsy tonga mba hotompoina, fa mba hanompo ka hanolotra ny ainy ho avotra hisolo ny maro.
just as the Son of Man did not come to be served, but to serve, and to give his life as a ransom for many.”
29 Ary raha niala tao Jeriko izy, dia nisy vahoaka betsaka nanaraka an’ i Jesosy.
As they went out from Jericho, a great crowd followed him.
30 Ary, indreo, nisy jamba roa lahy nipetraka teo amoron-dalana, ary nony reny fa Jesosy no mandalo, dia niantso izy ka nanao hoe: Mamindrà fo aminay, ry Tompo, Zanak’ i Davida ô!
There were two blind men sitting by the road. When they heard that Jesus was passing by, they shouted, “Lord, Son of David, have mercy on us.”
31 Ary ny vahoaka niteny mafy azy mba hangina; fa vao mainka niantsoantso izy ka nanao hoe: Mamindrà fo aminay, ry Tompo, Zanak’ i Davida ô!
The crowd rebuked them, telling them to be quiet, but they cried out even more loudly, “Lord, Son of David, have mercy on us.”
32 Ary Jesosy nijanona, dia niantso azy ka nanao hoe: Inona no tianareo hataoko aminareo?
Then Jesus stood still and called to them and said, “What do you wish me to do for you?”
33 Hoy izy taminy: Tompoko ô, ny mba hampahiratina ny masonay.
They said to him, “Lord, that our eyes may be opened.”
34 Ary Jesosy dia onena azy ka nanendry ny masony; ary nahiratra niaraka tamin’ izay izy, dia nanaraka an’ i Jesosy.
Then Jesus, being moved with compassion, touched their eyes. Immediately they received their sight and followed him.
