"For the kingdom of heaven is like a landowner who went out early in the morning to hire laborers for his vineyard.
2 pazcAt taiH sAkaM dinaikabhRtiM mudrAcaturthAMzaM nirUpya tAn drAkSAkSEtraM prErayAmAsa|
When he had agreed with the laborers for a denura a day, he sent them into his vineyard.
3 anantaraM praharaikavElAyAM gatvA haTTE katipayAn niSkarmmakAn vilOkya tAnavadat,
He went out about nine in the morning, and saw others standing idle in the marketplace.
4 yUyamapi mama drAkSAkSEtraM yAta, yuSmabhyamahaM yOgyabhRtiM dAsyAmi, tatastE vavrajuH|
To them he said, 'You also go into the vineyard, and whatever is right I will give you.' So they went their way.
5 punazca sa dvitIyatRtIyayOH praharayO rbahi rgatvA tathaiva kRtavAn|
Again he went out about noon and at three in the afternoon, and did likewise.
6 tatO daNPadvayAvaziSTAyAM vElAyAM bahi rgatvAparAn katipayajanAn niSkarmmakAn vilOkya pRSTavAn, yUyaM kimartham atra sarvvaM dinaM niSkarmmANastiSThatha?
About five that afternoon he went out, and found others standing. He said to them, 'Why do you stand here all day idle?'
7 tE pratyavadan, asmAn na kOpi karmamaNi niyuMktE| tadAnIM sa kathitavAn, yUyamapi mama drAkSAkSEtraM yAta, tEna yOgyAM bhRtiM lapsyatha|
"They said to him, 'Because no one has hired us.' "He said to them, 'You also go into the vineyard.'
8 tadanantaraM sandhyAyAM satyAM saEva drAkSAkSEtrapatiradhyakSaM gadivAn, kRSakAn AhUya zESajanamArabhya prathamaM yAvat tEbhyO bhRtiM dEhi|
When evening had come, the lord of the vineyard said to his manager, 'Call the laborers and pay them their wages, beginning from the last to the first.'
9 tEna yE daNPadvayAvasthitE samAyAtAstESAm EkaikO janO mudrAcaturthAMzaM prApnOt|
"When those who were hired at about five in the afternoon came, they each received a denura.
10 tadAnIM prathamaniyuktA janA AgatyAnumitavantO vayamadhikaM prapsyAmaH, kintu tairapi mudrAcaturthAMzO'lAbhi|
When the first came, they supposed that they would receive more; and they likewise each received a denura.
11 tatastE taM gRhItvA tEna kSEtrapatinA sAkaM vAgyuddhaM kurvvantaH kathayAmAsuH,
When they received it, they murmured against the master of the household,
12 vayaM kRtsnaM dinaM tApaklEzau sOPhavantaH, kintu pazcAtAyA sE janA daNPadvayamAtraM parizrAntavantastE'smAbhiH samAnAMzAH kRtAH|
saying, 'These last have spent one hour, and you have made them equal to us, who have borne the burden of the day and the scorching heat.'
13 tataH sa tESAmEkaM pratyuvAca, hE vatsa, mayA tvAM prati kOpyanyAyO na kRtaH kiM tvayA matsamakSaM mudrAcaturthAMzO nAggIkRtaH?
"But he answered one of them, 'Friend, I am doing you no wrong. Did you not agree with me for a denura?
14 tasmAt tava yat prApyaM tadAdAya yAhi, tubhyaM yati, pazcAtIyaniyuktalOkAyApi tati dAtumicchAmi|
Take that which is yours, and go your way. It is my desire to give to this last just as much as to you.
15 svEcchayA nijadravyavyavaharaNaM kiM mayA na karttavyaM? mama dAtRtvAt tvayA kim IrSyAdRSTiH kriyatE?
Is it not lawful for me to do what I want to with what I own? Or is your eye evil, because I am good?'
16 ittham agrIyalOkAH pazcatIyA bhaviSyanti, pazcAtIyajanAzcagrIyA bhaviSyanti, ahUtA bahavaH kintvalpE manObhilaSitAH|
So the last will be first, and the first last; for many are called, but few are chosen."
17 tadanantaraM yIzu ryirUzAlamnagaraM gacchan mArgamadhyE ziSyAn EkAntE vabhASE,
As Yeshua was going up to Urishlim, he took the Twelve aside, and on the way he said to them,
18 pazya vayaM yirUzAlamnagaraM yAmaH, tatra pradhAnayAjakAdhyApakAnAM karESu manuSyaputraH samarpiSyatE;
"Look, we are going up to Urishlim, and the Son of Man will be delivered to the chief priests and scribes, and they will condemn him to death,
19 tE ca taM hantumAjnjApya tiraskRtya vEtrENa praharttuM kruzE dhAtayitunjcAnyadEzIyAnAM karESu samarpayiSyanti, kintu sa tRtIyadivasE zmazAnAd utthApiSyatE|
and will hand him over to the non-Jews to mock, to scourge, and to crucify; and the third day he will be raised up."
20 tadAnIM sivadIyasya nArI svaputrAvAdAya yIzOH samIpam Etya praNamya kanjcanAnugrahaM taM yayAcE|
Then the mother of the sons of Zabedai came to him with her sons, kneeling and asking a certain thing of him.
21 tadA yIzustAM prOktavAn, tvaM kiM yAcasE? tataH sA babhASE, bhavatO rAjatvE mamAnayOH sutayOrEkaM bhavaddakSiNapArzvE dvitIyaM vAmapArzva upavESTum AjnjApayatu|
He said to her, "What do you want?" She said to him, "Command that these, my two sons, may sit, one on your right hand, and one on your left hand, in your Kingdom."
22 yIzuH pratyuvAca, yuvAbhyAM yad yAcyatE, tanna budhyatE, ahaM yEna kaMsEna pAsyAmi yuvAbhyAM kiM tEna pAtuM zakyatE? ahanjca yEna majjEnEna majjiSyE, yuvAbhyAM kiM tEna majjayituM zakyatE? tE jagaduH zakyatE|
But Yeshua 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 tadA sa uktavAn, yuvAM mama kaMsEnAvazyaM pAsyathaH, mama majjanEna ca yuvAmapi majjiSyEthE, kintu yESAM kRtE mattAtEna nirUpitam idaM tAn vihAyAnyaM kamapi maddakSiNapArzvE vAmapArzvE ca samupavEzayituM mamAdhikArO nAsti|
He said to them, "You will indeed drink my cup, but to sit on my right hand and on my left hand is not mine to give; but it is for whom it has been prepared by my Father."
24 EtAM kathAM zrutvAnyE dazaziSyAstau bhrAtarau prati cukupuH|
When the ten heard it, they were indignant with the two brothers.
25 kintu yIzuH svasamIpaM tAnAhUya jagAda, anyadEzIyalOkAnAM narapatayastAn adhikurvvanti, yE tu mahAntastE tAn zAsati, iti yUyaM jAnItha|
But Yeshua summoned them, and said, "You know that the rulers of the nations lord it over them, and their great ones exercise authority over them.
26 kintu yuSmAkaM madhyE na tathA bhavEt, yuSmAkaM yaH kazcit mahAn bubhUSati, sa yuSmAn sEvEta;
It will not be so among you, but whoever desires to become great among you must be your servant.
27 yazca yuSmAkaM madhyE mukhyO bubhUSati, sa yuSmAkaM dAsO bhavEt|
And whoever desires to be first among you must be your slave,
28 itthaM manujaputraH sEvyO bhavituM nahi, kintu sEvituM bahUnAM paritrANamUlyArthaM svaprANAn dAtunjcAgataH|
even 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 anantaraM yirIhOnagarAt tESAM bahirgamanasamayE tasya pazcAd bahavO lOkA vavrajuH|
As they went out from Irikhu, a large crowd followed him.
30 aparaM vartmapArzva upavizantau dvAvandhau tEna mArgENa yIzO rgamanaM nizamya prOccaiH kathayAmAsatuH, hE prabhO dAyUdaH santAna, AvayO rdayAM vidhEhi|
And look, two blind men sitting by the road, when they heard that Yeshua was passing by, shouted, "Have mercy on us, Lord, son of Dawid."
31 tatO lOkAH sarvvE tuSNImbhavatamityuktvA tau tarjayAmAsuH; tathApi tau punaruccaiH kathayAmAsatuH hE prabhO dAyUdaH santAna, AvAM dayasva|
The crowd rebuked them, telling them that they should be quiet, but they shouted even more, "Have mercy on us, Lord, son of Dawid."
32 tadAnIM yIzuH sthagitaH san tAvAhUya bhASitavAn, yuvayOH kRtE mayA kiM karttarvyaM? yuvAM kiM kAmayEthE?
Yeshua stood still, and called them, and asked, "What do you want me to do for you?"
33 tadA tAvuktavantau, prabhO nEtrANi nau prasannAni bhavEyuH|
They told him, "Lord, that our eyes may be opened."
34 tadAnIM yIzustau prati pramannaH san tayO rnEtrANi pasparza, tEnaiva tau suvIkSAnjcakrAtE tatpazcAt jagmutuzca|
Yeshua, being moved with compassion, touched their eyes; and immediately their eyes received their sight, and they followed him.
