Maatewos 20
1 “Mootummaan samiis abbaa lafaa kan iddoo dhaabaa wayinii isaatti hojjettoota qacarachuuf jedhee barii obboroo manaa baʼe tokko fakkaata.
For the kingdom of the heavens is like unto a landlord man, who went out early in the morning to hire laborers for his vineyard.
2 Innis guyyaatti diinaariitokko tokko isaanii kaffaluuf hojjettoota sanaan walii galee gara iddoo dhaabaa wayinii isaatti isaan erge.
And having agreed with the laborers for a denarion per day, sent them into his vineyard.
3 “Namichi sunis gara saʼaatii sadiitti gad baʼee namoota hojii malee iddoo gabaa dhadhaabatan kanneen biraa arge.
And having gone out about the third hour, he saw others standing idle in the forum:
4 ‘Isinis dhaqaatii iddoo dhaabaa wayinii kootii keessa hojjedhaa; anis waan isiniif malu isiniifin kaffalaa’ jedheen.
and he said to them, Go ye also into the vineyard, and whatsoever is right I will give you. And they departed.
5 Isaanis ni dhaqan. “Ammas gara saʼaatii jaʼaa fi gara saʼaatii sagaliitti gad baʼee akkasuma godhe.
Again having gone out about the sixth and ninth hours, he did likewise.
6 Naannoo saʼaatii kudha tokkoottis gad baʼee namoota hojii malee dhadhaabatan biraa argee, ‘Isin maaliif guyyaa guutuu hojii malee as dhadhaabattu?’ jedhee isaan gaafate.
And about the eleventh hour having gone out, he found others standing; and says to them, Why stand ye here idle all the day?
7 “Isaanis, ‘Sababii namni tokko illee nu hin qacaratiniif’ jedhanii deebisan. “Inni immoo, ‘Isinis dhaqaatii iddoo dhaabaa wayinii kootii keessa hojjedhaa’ jedheen.
They say to him, Because no one hired us. He says to them, Go ye also into the vineyard.
8 “Yommuu galgalaaʼetti abbaan iddoo dhaabaa wayinii sanaa hoogganaa hojii isaatiin, ‘Hojjettoota waami; warra gara dhumaatti qacaramanii jalqabii hamma warra dura qacaramaniitti mindaa isaanii kaffaliif’ jedheen.
And it being evening, the lord of the vineyard says to his steward, Call the laborers, and give them their hire, beginning from the last even unto the first.
9 “Warri gara saʼaatii kudha tokkootti qacaraman sunis dhufanii tokkoon tokkoon isaanii diinaarii tokko tokko fudhatan.
And those having come about the eleventh hour, received each man a denarion.
10 Warri jalqabatti qacaraman yommuu dhufanitti waan warra kaan caalaa argatan seʼan. Garuu tokkoon tokkoon isaanii diinaarii tokko tokko fudhatan.
But the first having come supposed that they shall receive more; and themselves also received each one a denarion.
11 Isaan yommuu diinaarii sana fudhatanitti abbaa lafaa sanatti guunguman.
But receiving it, they murmured against the landlord,
12 Isaanis, ‘Warri gara dhumaatti qacaraman kunneen saʼaatii tokko qofa hojjetan; ati garuu nu warra dadhabbii hojichaatii fi hoʼa guyyaa obsine isaaniin wal qixxeessite’ jedhaniin.
saying, These labored one hour, and thou hast made them equal unto us, who bore the burden of the day and the heat.
13 “Inni garuu hojjettoota sana keessaa isa tokkoon, ‘Yaa michuu ko, ani waan tokkoon illee si hin miine. Ati diinaarii tokkoon naan walii hin gallee?
But he responding said to one of them, Comrade, I do thee no wrong; didst thou not agree with me for a denarion?
14 Qooda kee fudhadhuu deemi; ani namicha isa gara dhumaa kanaafis hammuma siif kenne sana kennuufii nan barbaada.
Take thine own, and go. I wish to give unto this last one, even as unto thee.
15 Ani qarshii kootiin waan barbaade gochuuf mirga hin qabuu? Yookaan sababii ani arjaa taʼeef hinaaftaa?’ jedhe.
Is it not lawful for me to do as I wish with mine own? Is thine eye evil, because I am good?
16 “Akkasuma warri dhumaa warra jalqabaa ni taʼu; warri jalqabaa immoo warra dhumaa ni taʼu.”
So the last shall be first, and first last.
17 Yesuus utuu Yerusaalemitti ol baʼaa jiruu barattoota kudha lamaan kophaatti baasee akkana jedheen:
And Jesus going up to Jerusalem, took the twelve disciples privately, on the way and said to them,
18 “Kunoo nu Yerusaalemitti ol baʼaa jirra; Ilmi Namaas dabarfamee luboota hangafootattii fi barsiistota seeraatti ni kennama. Isaanis duʼa itti muru;
Behold, we go up to Jerusalem; and the Son of man shall be betrayed to the chief priests and scribes; and they will condemn Him to death,
19 akka isaan itti qoosaniif, isa garafanii fi isa fannisaniifis dabarsanii Namoota Ormaatti isa kennu. Innis guyyaa sadaffaatti duʼaa ni kaafama!”
and they will deliver Him to the Gentiles to mock, and scourge, and crucify Him: and on the third day He will rise.
20 Ergasiis haati ilmaan Zabdewoos ilmaan ishee wajjin gara Yesuus dhuftee jilbeenfattee waa isa kadhatte.
Then the mother of the sons of Zebedee came to Him with her sons, worshiping and asking something from Him.
21 Yesuusis, “Ati maal barbaadda?” jedheen. Isheenis, “Akka ilmaan koo kunneen lamaan mootummaa kee keessatti inni tokko mirga keetiin, inni kaan immoo bitaa keetiin taaʼu naa godhi” jetteen.
And He said to her, What do you wish? She says to Him, Tell me that these my two sons may sit, the one on thy right, and one on thy left, in thy kingdom.
22 Yesuus immoo, “Isin waan kadhattan hin beektan; xoofoo ani dhuguuf jiru dhuguu ni dandeessuu?” jedheen. Isaanis, “Ni dandeenya” jedhanii deebisan.
And Jesus responding said, You know not what you are asking. Are you able to drink the cup which I am about to drink? They say to Him, We are able.
23 Yesuusis, “Dhugumaan xoofoo koo irraa illee ni dhugdu; garuu mirga kootii fi bitaa kootiin taaʼuu kan kennu ana miti. Iddoon kun kan warra Abbaan koo isaaniif qopheesse sanaa ti” jedheen.
And He says to them, You shall indeed drink my cup, but to sit on my right, and on my left, this is not mine to give, but it belongs to those for whom it has been prepared by my Father.
24 Warri kurnan yommuu waan kana dhagaʼanitti obboloota lamaanitti aaran.
And the ten hearing were indignant concerning the two brothers.
25 Yesuusis walitti isaan waamee akkana jedhe; “Isin akka bulchitoonni Namoota Ormaa isaan irratti gooftummaa mulʼisan, gurguddoonni isaaniis akka isaan irratti taayitaa argisiisan ni beektu.
But Jesus calling them to Him, said, You know that the rulers of the Gentiles domineer over them, and the great ones exercise authority over them.
26 Isin biratti akkas miti. Qooda kanaa namni isin keessaa nama guddaa taʼuu barbaadu kam iyyuu tajaajilaa keessan taʼuu qaba;
It shall not be so among you; but whosoever may wish to be great among you, shall be your servant;
27 namni nama jalqabaa taʼuu barbaadu kam iyyuu garbicha keessan taʼuu qaba;
and whosoever may wish to be first among you, shall be your slave:
28 Ilmi Namaa iyyuu tajaajiluu fi lubbuu isaa immoo namoota baayʼeedhaaf furii godhee kennuuf dhufe malee tajaajilamuuf hin dhufneetii.”
as the Son of man came not to be served, but to serve, and to give His soul a ransom for many.
29 Utuu Yesuusii fi barattoonni isaa Yerikoodhaa baʼaa jiranuu, tuunni namootaa guddaan isa duukaa buʼe.
And they going out from Jericho, a great multitude followed Him.
30 Kunoo, jaamonni lama qarqara karaa tataaʼaa turan; isaanis yommuu akka Yesuus achiin darbaa jiru dhagaʼanitti iyyanii, “Gooftaa, yaa Ilma Daawit nu maari!” jedhan.
And behold, two blind men sitting by the wayside, hearing that Jesus is passing by, cried out, saying; Have mercy on us, O son of David.
31 Tuunni sunis akka isaan calʼisaniif isaan ifate; isaan garuu, “Yaa Gooftaa, yaa Ilma Daawit nu maari!” jedhanii ittuma caalchisanii iyyan.
And the multitude rebuked them, that they should keep silent. And they cried out the more, saying; Have mercy on us, O Lord, son of David.
32 Yesuusis dhaabatee isaan waamee, “Akka ani maal isinii godhu barbaaddu?” jedhee isaan gaafate.
Jesus standing, called them, and said, What do you wish that I shall do unto you?
33 Isaan immoo, “Yaa Gooftaa, akka iji keenya nuuf banamu barbaanna” jedhanii deebisan.
They say unto Him, Lord, that our eyes may be opened.
34 Yesuusis garaa laafeefii ija isaanii qaqqabe. Isaanis yeruma sana arganii isa duukaa buʼan.
And Jesus being moved with compassion, touched their eyes: and immediately they looked up; and followed Him.
