1 For the kingdom of heaven is like the master of a house, who went out early in the morning to get workers into his vine-garden.
2 And when he had made an agreement with the workmen for a penny a day, he sent them into his vine-garden.
3 And he went out about the third hour, and saw others in the market-place doing nothing;
4 And he said to them, Go into the vine-garden with the others, and whatever is right I will give you. And they went to work.
5 Again he went out about the sixth and the ninth hour, and did the same.
6 And about the eleventh hour he went out and saw others doing nothing; and he says to them, Why are you here all the day doing nothing?
7 They say to him, Because no man has given us work. He says to them, Go in with the rest, into the vine-garden.
8 And when evening came, the lord of the vine-garden said to his manager, Let the workers come, and give them their payment, from the last to the first.
9 And when those men came who had gone to work at the eleventh hour, they were given every man a penny.
10 Then those who came first had the idea that they would get more; and they, like the rest, were given a penny.
11 And when they got it, they made a protest against the master of the house,
12 Saying, These last have done only one hour's work, and you have made them equal to us, who have undergone the hard work of the day and the burning heat.
13 But he in answer said to one of them, Friend, I do you no wrong: did you not make an agreement with me for a penny?
14 Take what is yours, and go away; it is my pleasure to give to this last, even as to you.
15 Have I not the right to do as seems good to me in my house? or is your eye evil, because I am good?
16 So the last will be first, and the first last.
17 And when Jesus was going up to Jerusalem, he took the twelve disciples on one side, and said to them,
18 See, we go up to Jerusalem; and the Son of man will be given into the hands of the chief priests and scribes; and they will give orders for him to be put to death,
19 And will give him up to the Gentiles to be made sport of and to be whipped and to be put to death on the cross: and the third day he will come back again from the dead.
20 Then the mother of the sons of Zebedee came to him with her sons, giving him worship and making a request of him.
21 And he said to her, What is your desire? She says to him, Let my two sons be seated, the one at your right hand, and the other at your left, in your kingdom.
22 But Jesus made answer and said, You have no idea what you are requesting. Are you able to take of the cup which I am about to take?
23 They say to him, We are able. He says to them, Truly, you will take of my cup: but to be seated at my right hand and at my left is not for me to give, but it is for those for whom my Father has made it ready.
24 And when it came to the ears of the ten, they were angry with the two brothers.
25 But Jesus said to them, You see that the rulers of the Gentiles are lords over them, and their great ones have authority over them.
26 Let it not be so among you: but if anyone has a desire to become great among you, let him be your servant;
27 And whoever has a desire to be first among you, let him take the lowest place:
28 Even as the Son of man did not come to have servants, but to be a servant, and to give his life for the salvation of men.
29 And when they were going out from Jericho, a great number went after him.
30 And two blind men seated by the wayside, when they had the news that Jesus was going by, gave a loud cry, saying, Lord, Son of David, have mercy on us.
31 And the people gave them orders to be quiet; but they went on crying even louder, Lord, Son of David, have mercy on us.
32 And Jesus, stopping, sent for them, and said, What would you have me do to you?
33 They say to him, Lord, that our eyes may be open.
34 And Jesus, being moved with pity, put his fingers on their eyes: and straight away they were able to see, and went after him.
1 He rite hoki te rangatiratanga o te rangi ki tetahi rangatira whare, i haere i te atatu ki te korero kaimahi mo tana mara waina.
2 A, no ka oti te whakarite ki nga kaimahi kia kotahi ra he pene, tonoa ana ratou e ia ki tana mara waina.
3 A ka haere atu ia i te toru o nga haora, ka kite i etahi atu e tu mangere ana i te kainga hokohoko,
4 Ka mea ki a ratou, Haere hoki koutou ki te mara waina, a ka hoatu e ahau ki a koutou te mea e tika ana. Na haere ana ratou.
5 I haere ano ia i te ono, i te iwa o nga haora, a pera ana ano.
6 I te tekau ma tahi o nga haora ka haere atu ano ia, ka kite i etahi atu e tu ana, ka mea ki a ratou, He aha ta koutou e tu mangere i konei i te ra roa nei?
7 Ka mea ratou ki a ia, No te mea ra kahore he tangata i korero ki a matou ki te mahi. Ka mea ia ki a ratou, Haere ano koutou ki te mara waina, ko te mea tika koia tera e whiwhi ai koutou.
8 A, no te ahiahi ka mea te rangatira o te mara waina ki tana kaiwhakahauhau, Karangatia nga kaimahi, utua hoki ratou, hei o muri timata ai puta noa ki o mua.
9 A, no te taenga mai o te hunga i korerotia i te tekau ma tahi o nga haora, kotahi te pene i riro i tetahi, i tetahi.
10 Ka tae ano o mua, hua noa ratou tera atu te mea e riro i a ratou; heoi katahi ano te pene i riro i a ratou.
11 A, no ka riro i a ratou, ka amuamu ki taua rangatira whare,
12 Ka mea, Kotahi te haora i mahi ai enei o muri, a ka oti ratou te whakarite ki a matou, ki te hunga i pehia nei e te taimaha e te tikakatanga o te ra.
13 A ka whakahoki ia, ka mea ki tetahi o ratou, E hoa, kahore aku he ki a koe: kihai koe i whakarite ki ahau me pene?
14 Tangohia tau, haere: e pai ana ahau kia rite ki tau te mea e hoatu ki tenei o muri.
15 Ehara ianei i te tika kia meatia e ahau taku e pai ai ki aku mea? He kino oti tou kanohi no te mea he pai ahau?
16 Heoi, ko o muri e meinga ki mua, ko o mua ki muri: he tokomaha hoki e karangatia, he ruarua ia e whiriwhiria.
17 A, i a Ihu e haere ana ki Hiruharama, i a ratou i te ara, ka kawea e ia ana akonga kotahi tekau ma rua ki tahaki, a ka mea ki a ratou,
18 Na e haere ana tenei tatou ki Hiruharama; a ka tukua te Tama a te tangata ki nga tohunga nui, ki nga karaipi, ka kiia ia e ratou kia mate,
19 Ka tukua ia ki nga tauiwi kia tawaia, kia whiua, kia ripekatia: a i te toru o nga ra ka whakaarahia ake.
20 Me i reira ka tae ki a ia te whaea o nga tama a Heperi, ratou ko ana tama, a ka koropiko, ka inoi ki tetahi mea i a ia.
21 Na ka mea ia ki a ia, He hiahia aha tou? Ka mea ia ki a ia, Whakaaetia enei tama tokorua aku, kia noho, tetahi ki tou matau, tetahi ki tou maui, i tou rangatiratanga.
22 Otira ka whakahoki a Ihu, ka mea, Kahore korua e mohio ki ta korua e inoi nei. E ahei ranei korua te inu i te kapu meake inumia e ahau, kia iriiria hoki ki te iriiringa ka iriiria nei ahau? Ka mea raua ki a ia, E ahei ano.
23 Ka mea ia ki a raua, E inu ano korua i taku kapu, e iriiria ki te iriiringa e iriiria ai ahau: ko te noho ia ki toku matau, ki toku maui, ehara i ahau mana e hoatu, engari ka riro i te hunga i whakaritea nei e toku Matua mo ratou.
24 A, no ka rongo te tekau, ka riri ki aua hoa tokorua.
25 Otira ka karangatia ratou e Ihu, a ka mea ia, E matau ana koutou, ko nga kawana o nga tauiwi hei whakatupu rangatira ki a ratou, ko nga tangata rarahi hei akiaki i a ratou.
26 E kore e pera i roto i a koutou: engari ki te mea tetahi kia tupu ia hei tangata nui i roto i a koutou, me whakatupu kaimahi ia ma koutou;
27 A ki te mea tetahi kia tupu ko ia hei tino tangata i roto i a koutou, me whakatupu pononga ia ma koutou:
28 Pera i te Tama a te tangata, kihai nei i haere mai kia mahia he mea mana, engari kia mahi ia, a kia tuku i a ia kia mate hei whakautu mo nga tangata tokomaha.
29 A, i a ratou e haere atu ana i Heriko, he rahi te hui i aru i a ia.
30 Na tokorua nga matapo e noho ana i te taha o te ara: ka rongo raua ko Ihu tera e haere atu ana, ka karanga ake, ka mea, Kia aroha ki a maua, e te Ariki, e te Tama a Rawiri.
31 A i riria raua e te mano kia noho puku: heoi rahi ake ta raua karanga, ka mea, Kia aroha ki a maua, e te Ariki, e te Tama a Rawiri.
32 Na ka tu a Ihu, ka karanga i a raua, ka mea, Kia ahatia korua e ahau?
33 Ka mea raua ki a ia, E te Ariki, kia kite o maua kanohi.
34 Na ka aroha a Ihu, ka pa ki o raua kanohi: a titiro tonu ake o raua kanohi, a aru ana raua i a ia.
