1 فان ملكوت السموات يشبه رجلا رب بيت خرج مع الصبح ليستأجر فعلة لكرمه.2 فأتفق مع الفعلة على دينار في اليوم وارسلهم الى كرمه.3 ثم خرج نحو الساعة الثالثة ورأى آخرين قياما في السوق بطالين.4 فقال لهم اذهبوا انتم ايضا الى الكرم فاعطيكم ما يحق لكم. فمضوا.5 وخرج ايضا نحو الساعة السادسة والتاسعة وفعل كذلك.6 ثم نحو الساعة الحادية عشرة خرج ووجد آخرين قياما بطالين. فقال لهم لماذا وقفتم هنا كل النهار بطالين.7 قالوا له لانه لم يستأجرنا احد. قال لهم اذهبوا انتم ايضا الى الكرم فتأخذوا ما يحق لكم.8 فلما كان المساء قال صاحب الكرم لوكيله. ادع الفعلة واعطهم الاجرة مبتدئا من الاخرين الى الاولين.9 فجاء اصحاب الساعة الحادية عشرة واخذوا دينارا دينارا.10 فلما جاء الاولون ظنوا انهم يأخذون اكثر. فاخذوا هم ايضا دينارا دينارا11 وفيما هم ياخذون تذمروا على رب البيت12 قائلين. هؤلاء الآخرون عملوا ساعة واحدة وقد ساويتهم بنا نحن الذين احتملنا ثقل النهار والحر.13 فاجاب وقال لواحد منهم. يا صاحب ما ظلمتك. أما اتفقت معي على دينار.14 فخذ الذي لك واذهب. فاني اريد ان اعطي هذا الاخير مثلك.15 او ما يحل لي ان افعل ما اريد بما لي. أم عينك شريرة لاني انا صالح.16 هكذا يكون الآخرون اولين والاولون آخرين. لان كثيرين يدعون وقليلين ينتخبون17 وفيما كان يسوع صاعدا الى اورشليم اخذ الاثني عشر تلميذا على انفراد في الطريق وقال لهم.18 ها نحن صاعدون الى اورشليم وابن الانسان يسلم الى رؤساء الكهنة والكتبة فيحكمون عليه بالموت.19 ويسلمونه الى الامم لكي يهزأوا به ويجلدوه ويصلبوه. وفي اليوم الثالث يقوم20 حينئذ تقدمت اليه ام ابني زبدي مع ابنيها وسجدت وطلبت منه شيئا.21 فقال لها ماذا تريدين. قالت له قل ان يجلس ابناي هذان واحد عن يمينك والآخر عن اليسار في ملكوتك.22 فاجاب يسوع وقال لستما تعلمان ما تطلبان. أتستطيعان ان تشربا الكاس التي سوف اشربها انا وان تصطبغا بالصبغة التي اصطبغ بها انا. قالا له نستطيع.23 فقال لهما اما كاسي فتشربانها وبالصبغة التي اصطبغ بها انا تصطبغان واما الجلوس عن يميني وعن يساري فليس لي ان اعطيه الا للذين اعدّ لهم من ابي.24 فلما سمع العشرة اغتاظوا من اجل الاخوين.25 فدعاهم يسوع وقال انتم تعلمون ان رؤساء الامم يسودونهم والعظماء يتسلطون عليهم.26 فلا يكون هكذا فيكم. بل من اراد ان يكون فيكم عظيما فليكن لكم خادما.27 ومن اراد ان يكون فيكم اولا فليكن لكم عبدا.28 كما ان ابن الانسان لم يأت ليخدم بل ليخدم وليبذل نفسه فدية عن كثيرين29 وفيما هم خارجون من اريحا تبعه جمع كثير.30 واذا اعميان جالسان على الطريق. فلما سمعا ان يسوع مجتاز صرخا قائلين ارحمنا يا سيد يا ابن داود.31 فانتهرهما الجمع ليسكتا فكانا يصرخان اكثر قائلين ارحمنا يا سيد يا ابن داود.32 فوقف يسوع وناداهما وقال ماذا تريدان ان افعل بكما.33 قالا له يا سيد ان تنفتح اعيننا.34 فتحنن يسوع ولمس اعينهما فللوقت ابصرت اعينهما فتبعاه

1 For the kingdom of heaven is like to a man that is an householder, which went out early in the morning to hire laborers into his vineyard.2 And when he had agreed with the laborers for a penny a day, he sent them into his vineyard.3 And he went out about the third hour, and saw others standing idle in the marketplace,4 And said to them; Go you also into the vineyard, and whatever is right I will give you. And they went their way.5 Again he went out about the sixth and ninth hour, and did likewise.6 And about the eleventh hour he went out, and found others standing idle, and said to them, Why stand you here all the day idle?7 They say to him, Because no man has hired us. He said to them, Go you also into the vineyard; and whatever is right, that shall you receive.8 So when even was come, the lord of the vineyard said to his steward, Call the laborers, and give them their hire, beginning from the last to the first.9 And when they came that were hired about the eleventh hour, they received every man a penny.10 But when the first came, they supposed that they should have received more; and they likewise received every man a penny.11 And when they had received it, they murmured against the manager of the house,12 Saying, These last have worked but one hour, and you have made them equal to us, which have borne the burden and heat of the day.13 But he answered one of them, and said, Friend, I do you no wrong: did not you agree with me for a penny?14 Take that your is, and go your way: I will give to this last, even as to you.15 Is it not lawful for me to do what I will with my own? Is your eye evil, because I am good?16 So the last shall be first, and the first last: for many be called, but few chosen.17 And Jesus going up to Jerusalem took the twelve disciples apart in the way, and said to them,18 Behold, we go up to Jerusalem; and the Son of man shall be betrayed to the chief priests and to the scribes, and they shall condemn him to death,19 And shall deliver him to the Gentiles to mock, and to whip, and to crucify him: and the third day he shall rise again.20 Then came to him the mother of Zebedees children with her sons, worshipping him, and desiring a certain thing of him.21 And he said to her, What will you? She said to him, Grant that these my two sons may sit, the one on your right hand, and the other on the left, in your kingdom.22 But Jesus answered and said, You know not what you ask. Are you able to drink of the cup that I shall drink of, and to be baptized with the baptism that I am baptized with? They say to him, We are able.23 And he said to them, You shall drink indeed of my cup, and be baptized with the baptism that I am baptized with: but to sit on my right hand, and on my left, is not my to give, but it shall be given to them for whom it is prepared of my Father.24 And when the ten heard it, they were moved with indignation against the two brothers.25 But Jesus called them to him, and said, You know that the princes of the Gentiles exercise dominion over them, and they that are great exercise authority on them.26 But it shall not be so among you: but whoever will be great among you, let him be your minister;27 And whoever will be chief among you, let him be your servant:28 Even as the Son of man came not to be ministered to, but to minister, and to give his life a ransom for many.29 And as they departed from Jericho, a great multitude followed him.30 And, behold, two blind men sitting by the way side, when they heard that Jesus passed by, cried out, saying, Have mercy on us, O Lord, you son of David.31 And the multitude rebuked them, because they should hold their peace: but they cried the more, saying, Have mercy on us, O Lord, you son of David.32 And Jesus stood still, and called them, and said, What will you that I shall do to you?33 They say to him, Lord, that our eyes may be opened.34 So Jesus had compassion on them, and touched their eyes: and immediately their eyes received sight, and they followed him.
