1  Now after six days Jesus took Peter, James, and John his brother, and led them up on a high mountain in private;

1  And after six days Jesus taketh with him Peter, and James, and John his brother, and bringeth them up into a high mountain apart

1  And after six days, Jesus took Peter and James and his brother John, and he led them onto a lofty mountain separately.

2  and He was transfigured before them, and His face shone like the sun, and His clothes became as white as the light.

2  And Jesus was transfigured before them, and his face shone like the sun, and his clothes turned white like light.

2  And was transfigured before them: and his face did shine as the sun, and his raiment was white as the light.

3  And behold, Moses and Elijah appeared to them, talking with Him.

3  And there appeared to them Moses and Elijah, as they were talking with him.

4  Then Peter answered and said to Jesus, "Lord, it is good for us to be here; if You desire, let us make here three tents: one for You, one for Moses, and one for Elijah."

4  And Peter answered, and said unto Jesus, Lord, it is good for us to be here: if thou wilt, I will make here three tabernacles; one for thee, and one for Moses, and one for Elijah.

5  While he was still speaking, behold, a bright cloud overshadowed them; and behold, a voice [came] out of the cloud, saying, "This is My beloved Son, in whom I am well pleased. Hear Him!"

5  And while he was still speaking, behold, a shining cloud overshadowed them. And behold, there was a voice from the cloud, saying: “This is my beloved Son, with whom I am well pleased. Listen to him.”

5  And while he was speaking, behold, a bright cloud overshadowed them, and a voice came out of the cloud saying, This is my beloved Son, I am pleased with him; hear him.

6  And when the disciples heard this, they fell on their faces and they were greatly afraid.

6  And the disciples, hearing this, fell prone on their face, and they were very afraid.

6  When the disciples heard it, they threw themselves on their faces, and they were greatly frightened.

7  But Jesus approached and touched them and said, "Arise, and do not be afraid."

7  And Jesus came and touched them and said, Arise, and be not afraid.

7  And Jesus drew near and touched them. And he said to them, “Rise up and do not be afraid.”

8  And lifting up their eyes, they saw no one except Jesus only.

8  And they raised up their eyes, and they saw no man, except Jesus alone.

8  And when they had lifted up their eyes, they saw no man, save Jesus only.

9  And as they came down from the mountain, Jesus commanded them, saying, "Tell the vision to no one until the Son of Man is risen from the dead."

9  And as they were going down from the mountain, Jesus commanded them, and said to them, Do not speak of this vision in the presence of anyone, until the Son of man rises from the dead.

10  And His disciples asked Him, saying, "Why then do the scribes say that Elijah must come first?"

10  And his disciples questioned him, saying, “Why then do the scribes say that it is necessary for Elijah to arrive first?”

11  Jesus answered and said to them, "Elijah truly does come first, and shall restore all things.

11  And he answered and said, Elijah indeed cometh, and shall restore all things

11  But in response, he said to them: “Elijah, indeed, shall arrive and restore all things.

12  But I say to you that Elijah has come already, and they did not recognize him, but did to him whatever they desired. Thus also the Son of Man is about to suffer by them."

12  but I say into you, that Elijah is come already, and they knew him not, but did unto him whatsoever they would. Even so shall the Son of man also suffer of them.

13  Then the disciples understood that He spoke to them of John the Baptist.

14  And when they came to the crowd, a man approached Him, kneeling to Him, and saying,

14  And when he had arrived at the multitude, a man approached him, falling to his knees before him, saying: “Lord, take pity on my son, for he is an epileptic, and he suffers harm. For he frequently falls into fire, and often also into water.

15  "Lord, have pity on my son, for he is moonstruck and suffers severely; for he often falls into the fire and often into the water.

15  Lord, have mercy on my son: for he is epileptic, and suffereth grievously; for oft-times he falleth into the fire, and off-times into the water.

15  My Lord, have mercy on me; my son is an epileptic and has become worse; he often falls into the fire, and often into the water.

16  So I brought him to Your disciples, but they were not able to heal him."

16  And I brought him to thy disciples, and they could not cure him.

17  Then Jesus answered and said, "O unfaithful and perverted generation, how long shall I be with you? How long shall I bear with you? Bring him here to Me."

17  Jesus answered and said, O faithless and crooked generation, how long shall I be with you? and how long shall I preach to you? bring him here to me.

18  And Jesus rebuked the demon, and it came out from him; and the boy was healed from that very hour.

19  Then the disciples came to Jesus privately and said, "Why could we not cast it out?"

20  So Jesus said to them, "Because of your unbelief; for assuredly I say to you, if you have faith like a mustard seed, you shall say to this mountain, 'Be moved from here to there,' and it shall move; and nothing shall be impossible for you.

20  And he saith unto them, Because of your little faith: for verily I say unto you, If ye have faith as a grain of mustard seed, ye shall say unto this mountain, Remove hence to yonder place; and it shall remove; and nothing shall be impossible unto you.

20  Jesus said to them: “Because of your unbelief. Amen I say to you, certainly, if you will have faith like a grain of mustard seed, you will say to this mountain, ‘Move from here to there,’ and it shall move. And nothing will be impossible for you.

21  However, this kind does not go out except by prayer and fasting."

21  [But this kind goeth not out save by prayer and fasting.]

21  Nevertheless this kind does not come out, except by fasting and prayer.

22  And while they were staying in Galilee, Jesus said to them, "The Son of Man is about to be betrayed into the hands of men,

22  And when they were conversing together in Galilee, Jesus said to them: “The Son of man shall be delivered into the hands of men.

23  and they will kill Him, and on the third day He shall be raised."And they were exceedingly sorrowful.

24  When they had come to Capernaum, those who collected the temple tax came to Peter and said, "Does your Teacher not pay the temple tax?"

24  And when they were come to Capernaum, they that received the half-shekel came to Peter, and said, Doth not your teacher pay the half-shekel?

24  And when they came to Capernaum, those who collect two coins of silver as headtax came to Peter and said to him, Would not your master give his two coins?

25  He said, "Yes."And when he entered into the house, Jesus anticipated him, saying, "What do you think, Simon? From whom do the kings of the earth take customs or taxes, from their sons or from strangers?"

26  Peter said to Him, "From strangers."Jesus said to him, "Then the sons are free.

26  And when he said, From strangers, Jesus said unto him, Therefore the sons are free.

27  Nevertheless, lest we offend them, go to the sea, and cast in a hook, and take the first fish coming up. And when you have opened its mouth, you will find a coin; taking that, give it to them for Me and you."

27  But, lest we cause them to stumble, go thou to the sea, and cast a hook, and take up the fish that first cometh up; and when thou hast opened his mouth, thou shalt find a shekel: that take, and give unto them for me and thee.

27  But so that we may not become an obstacle to them: go to the sea, and cast in a hook, and take the first fish that is brought up, and when you have opened its mouth, you will find a shekel. Take it and give it to them, for me and for you.”

18:1  At that time the disciples came to Jesus, saying, "Who then is [the ]greater in the kingdom of heaven?"

1  In that hour, the disciples drew near to Jesus, saying, “Whom do you consider to be greater in the kingdom of heaven?”

1  AT that very hour the disciples came up to Jesus and said, Who is greatest in the kingdom of heaven?

18:2  Then Jesus called a little child, and set him in their midst,

2  And he called to him a little child, and set him in the midst of them,

2  So Jesus called a little boy, and made him to stand up in the midst of them,

18:3  and said, "Assuredly I say to you, unless you are converted and become as little children, you shall by no means enter the kingdom of heaven.

3  and said, Verily I say unto you, Except ye turn, and become as little children, ye shall in no wise enter into the kingdom of heaven.

3  And he said: “Amen I say to you, unless you change and become like little children, you shall not enter into the kingdom of heaven.

18:4  Therefore whoever humbles himself as this little child, he is the greater in the kingdom of heaven.

4  Whosoever therefore shall humble himself as this little child, the same is the greatest in the kingdom of heaven.

4  Whoever therefore will humble himself like this little boy, shall be great in the kingdom of heaven.

18:5  And whoever receives one such little child in My name, receives Me.

5  And whoso shall receive one such little child in my name receiveth me

5  And he who will welcome one like this little boy, in my name, welcomes me.

18:6  "But whoever causes one of these little ones who believe in Me to stumble, it would be better for him that a huge millstone be hanged on his neck, and he be drowned in the depth of the sea.

6  But whoso shall cause one of these little ones that believe on me to stumble, it is profitable for him that a great millstone should be hanged about his neck, and [that] he should be sunk in the depth of the sea.

6  But whoso shall offend one of these little ones which believe in me, it were better for him that a millstone were hanged about his neck, and that he were drowned in the depth of the sea.

18:7  Woe to the world because of offenses! For offenses must come, but woe to that man through whom the offense comes!

7  Woe unto the world because of occasions of stumbling! for it must needs be that the occasions come; but woe to that man through whom the occasion cometh!

7  Woe to a world that leads people astray! Although it is necessary for temptations to arise, nevertheless: Woe to that man through whom temptation arises!

18:8  And if your hand or your foot causes you to stumble, cut them off and cast [them] from you. It is better for you to enter into life lame or maimed, than having two hands or two feet, to be thrown into the eternal fire.

8  Wherefore if thy hand or thy foot offend thee, cut them off, and cast them from thee: it is better for thee to enter into life halt or maimed, rather than having two hands or two feet to be cast into everlasting fire.

18:9  And if your eye causes you to stumble, pluck it out and cast it from you. It is better for you to enter into life with one eye, than having two eyes, to be thrown into the fiery hell.

9  And if thine eye causeth thee to stumble, pluck it out, and cast it from thee: it is good for thee to enter into life with one eye, rather than having two eyes to be cast into the hell of fire.

9  And if your eye offends you, remove it and throw it away from you; it is better for you to go through life with one eye, rather than having two eyes and fall into the gehenna of fire.

18:10  "See that you do not despise one of these little [ones], for I say to you that in heaven their angels always see the face of My Father who is in heaven.

10  See to it that you do not despise even one of these little ones. For I say to you, that their Angels in heaven continually look upon the face of my Father, who is in heaven.

18:11  For the Son of Man came to save that which was lost.

18:12  What do you think? If a certain man has a hundred sheep, and one of them goes astray, does he not leave the ninety-nine on the mountains, and go and search for the [one ]gone astray?

12  How think ye? if any man have a hundred sheep, and one of them be gone astray, doth he not leave the ninety and nine, and go unto the mountains, and seek that which goeth astray?

12  How does it seem to you? If someone has one hundred sheep, and if one of them has gone astray, should he not leave behind the ninety-nine in the mountains, and go out to seek what has gone astray?

18:13  And if he happens to find it, assuredly I say to you that he rejoices over it more than over the ninety-nine which did not go astray.

13  And if so be that he find it, verily I say unto you, he rejoiceth more of that sheep, than of the ninety and nine which went not astray.

18:14  Thus it is not the will before your Father who is in heaven that one of these little ones should perish.

14  Even so, it is not the will before your Father, who is in heaven, that one of these little ones should be lost.

14  Even so, your Father in heaven does not want one of these little ones to be lost.

18:15  "And if your brother sins against you, go and show him his fault between you and him alone. If he hears you, you have won your brother.

15  And if thy brother sin against thee, go, show him his fault between thee and him alone: if he hear thee, thou hast gained thy brother.

18:16  But if he does not hear, take along with you one or two more, so that 'by the mouth of two or three witnesses every word may be established.'

16  But if he will not listen you, invite with you one or two more, so that every word may stand by the mouth of two or three witnesses.

18:17  But if he refuses to hear them, tell it to the assembly. But if he refuses even to hear the assembly, let him be to you as a heathen and a tax collector.

17  And if he refuse to hear them, tell it unto the church: and if he refuse to hear the church also, let him be unto thee as the Gentile and the publican.

17  And if he will not listen to them, tell the Church. But if he will not listen to the Church, let him be to you like the pagan and the tax collector.

18:18  Assuredly I say to you, whatever you bind on earth shall have been bound in heaven, and whatever you loose on earth shall have been loosed in heaven.

18:19  Again, assuredly I say to you that if two of you agree on earth about anything that they may ask, it will be done for them by My Father in heaven.

19  Again I say unto you, that if two of you shall agree on earth as touching anything that they shall ask, it shall be done for them of my Father who is in heaven.

19  Again I say to you, that if two of those among you have agreed on earth, about anything whatsoever that they have requested, it shall be done for them by my Father, who is in heaven.

18:20  For where two or three are gathered together in My name, I am there in their midst."

18:21  Then Peter came to Him and said, "Lord, how often shall my brother sin against me, and I forgive him? Up to seven times?"

21  Then Peter, drawing near to him, said: “Lord, how many times shall my brother sin against me, and I forgive him? Even seven times?”

18:22  Jesus said to him, "I do not say to you, up to seven times, but up to seventy- seven [times.]

22  Jesus saith unto him, I say not unto thee, Until seven times; but, Until seventy times seven.

18:23  Therefore the kingdom of heaven is like a certain king who wanted to settle accounts with his servants.

18:24  And when he began to settle up, one debtor was brought to him [owing] ten thousand talents.

18:25  But since he had nothing with which to repay, his master commanded that he be sold, with his wife and children and everything that he had, and to be repaid.

25  But forasmuch as he had not [wherewith] to pay, his lord commanded him to be sold, and his wife, and children, and all that he had, and payment to be made.

18:26  Therefore falling down before him, the servant said, 'Master, have patience with me, and I will repay everything to you.'

26  The servant therefore fell down and worshipped him, saying, Lord, have patience with me, and I will pay thee all.

26  But that servant, falling prostrate, begged him, saying, ‘Have patience with me, and I will repay it all to you.’

18:27  "And having compassion, the master of that servant released him, and forgave him the loan.

27  And the lord of that servant, being moved with compassion, released him, and forgave him the debt.

27  Then the master of that servant had pity, so he released him, and cancelled his debt.

18:28  But when that servant went out, he found one of his fellow servants who owed him a hundred denarii. And taking hold of him, he was choking him, saying, 'Pay me what you owe!'

28  But that servant went out, and found one of his fellow-servants, who owed him a hundred shillings: and he laid hold on him, and took [him] by the throat, saying, Pay what thou owest.

18:29  "So his fellow servant fell down at his feet and kept begging him, saying, 'Have patience with me, and I will pay you back.'

29  So his fellow-servant fell down and besought him, saying, Have patience with me, and I will pay thee.

29  And his fellow servant, falling prostrate, petitioned him, saying: ‘Have patience with me, and I will repay it all to you.’

18:30  "But he was not willing, but going off, he cast him into prison till he should pay back what was owed.

30  And he would not: but went and cast him into prison, till he should pay that which was due.

30  But he was not willing. Instead, he went out and had him sent to prison, until he would repay the debt.

18:31  So when his fellow servants saw what had been done, they were very grieved, and they came and narrated to their master all that had taken place.

31  Now his fellow servants, seeing what was done, were greatly saddened, and they went and reported to their lord all that was done.

18:32  Then summoning him, his master said to him, 'You wicked servant! I forgave you all that debt because you begged me.

32  Then his lord called him unto him, and saith to him, Thou wicked servant, I forgave thee all that debt, because thou besoughtest me

32  Then his master called him and said to him, O wicked servant, I cancelled all your debt because you begged me.

18:33  Should you not also have had compassion on your fellow servant, as I also had compassion on you?'

33  shouldest not thou also have had mercy on thy fellow-servant, even as I had mercy on thee?

33  Was it not right for you to have mercy on your fellow-servant, just as I had mercy on you?

18:34  "And being angered, his master handed him over to the tormentors until he should pay all that was owed to him.

34  And his lord, being angry, handed him over to the torturers, until he repaid the entire debt.

34  So his master was angry, and delivered him to the scourgers, until he should pay everything he owed him.

18:35  Thus also My heavenly Father will do to you, if you do not forgive each [one] his brother their trespasses, from your hearts."

35  So shall also my heavenly Father do unto you, if ye forgive not every one his brother from your hearts.

35  So will my Father in heaven do to you, if you do not forgive each man his brotherÆs fault from your heart.

19:1  Now it came to pass, when Jesus had finished these words, that He with from Galilee and went to the region of Judea beyond the Jordan.

1  WHEN Jesus had finished these sayings, he departed from Galilee, and came to the border of Judaea, at the crossing of the Jordan.

19:2  And great crowds followed Him, and He healed them there.

2  And a great many people followed him, and he healed them there.

19:3  The Pharisees also came to Him, testing Him, and saying to Him, "Is it lawful for a man to divorce his wife for just any reason?"

3  And there came unto him Pharisees, trying him, and saying, Is it lawful [for a man] to put away his wife for every cause?

3  And the Pharisees approached him, testing him, and saying, “Is it lawful for a man to separate from his wife, no matter what the cause?”

19:4  And He answered and said to them, "Have you not read that He who made them at the beginning 'made them male and female,'

4  And he said to them in response, “Have you not read that he who made man from the beginning, made them male and female?” And he said

4  But he answered and said to them, Have you not read, that he who made from the beginning, made them male and female?

19:5  and He said, 'For this reason a man shall leave his father and mother and shall be joined to his wife, and the two shall become one flesh'?

5  “For this reason, a man shall separate from father and mother, and he shall cling to his wife, and these two shall become one flesh.

5  And said, For this cause shall a man leave father and mother, and shall cleave to his wife: and they twain shall be one flesh?

19:6  So then, they are no longer two but one flesh. Therefore what God has joined together, let not man separate."

6  Henceforth they are not two, but one body; therefore what God has joined together, man must not separate.

19:7  They said to Him, "Why then did Moses command to give a certificate of divorce, and to put her away?"

19:8  He said to them, "Moses, because of the hardness of your hearts, permitted you to divorce your wives, but from the beginning it has not been thus.

8  He saith unto them, Moses for your hardness of heart suffered you to put away your wives: but from the beginning it hath not been so.

19:9  And I say to you, that whoever shall put away his wife, except [it be ]for fornication, and marries another, commits adultery; and whoever marrying a divorcee commits adultery."

19:10  His disciples said to Him, "If such is the case of the man with his wife, it is better not to marry."

19:11  But He said to them, "All cannot accept this saying, but [it is for those] to whom it has been given

11  And he said to them: “Not everyone is able to grasp this word, but only those to whom it has been given.

11  He said to them, This saying does not apply to every man, but to whom it is needed.

19:12  For there are eunuchs who were born thus from their mother's womb, and there are eunuchs who were made eunuchs by men, and there are eunuchs who have made themselves eunuchs for the kingdom of heaven's sake. He who is able to accept [this], let him accept [it]."

12  For there are chaste persons who were born so from their mother’s womb, and there are chaste persons who have been made so by men, and there are chaste persons who have made themselves chaste for the sake of the kingdom of heaven. Whoever is able to grasp this, let him grasp it.”

19:13  Then little children were brought to Him, that He might put His hands on them and pray; but the disciples rebuked them.

13  Then were there brought unto him little children, that he should lay his hands on them, and pray: and the disciples rebuked them.

13  Then they brought little boys to him, that he may lay his hand on them and pray; and his disciples rebuked them.

19:14  But Jesus said, "Allow the little children to come to Me, and do not forbid them; for of such is the kingdom of heaven."

14  Yet truly, Jesus said to them: “Allow the little children to come to me, and do not choose to prohibit them. For the kingdom of heaven is among such as these.”

14  But Jesus said to them, Allow the little boys to come to me, and do not stop them; for the kingdom of heaven is for such as these.

19:15  And having put His hands on them, He departed from there.

15  And he laid his hands on them, and departed thence.

15  And when he had imposed his hands upon them, he went away from there.

19:16  And behold, one came and said to Him, "Good Teacher, what good [thing] shall I do that I may have eternal life?"

16  Then a man came up and said to him, O good Teacher, what is the best that I should do to have life eternal?

19:17  So He said to him, "Why do you call Me good? No one is good except One, [that is], God. But if you want to enter into life, keep the commandments."

17  And he said unto him, Why askest thou me concerning that which is good? One there is who is good: but if thou wouldest enter into life, keep the commandments.

19:18  He said to Him, "Which [ones]?"Jesus said, "'You shall not murder,' 'You shall not commit adultery,' 'You shall not steal,' 'You shall not bear false witness,'

18  He saith unto him, Which? And Jesus said, Thou shalt not kill, Thou shalt not commit adultery, Thou shalt not steal, Thou shalt not bear false witness,

19:19  ' Honor your father and your mother,' and, 'You shall love your neighbor as yourself.' "

19  Honor thy father and mother; and, Thou shalt love thy neighbor as thyself.

19  Honor your father and your mother; and, Love your neighbor as yourself.

19:20  The young man said to Him, "All these have I kept from my youth. What do I still lack?"

19:21  Jesus said to him, "If you desire to be perfect, go, sell your belongings and give to the poor, and you shall have treasure in heaven; and come, follow Me."

21  Jesus said unto him, If thou wouldest be perfect, go, sell that which thou hast, and give to the poor, and thou shalt have treasure in heaven: and come, follow me.

19:22  But when the young man heard the word, he went away grieved, for he had many possessions.

22  And when the young man had heard this word, he went away sad, for he had many possessions.

22  When the young man heard this word, he went away sad, for he had great possessions.

19:23  Then Jesus said to His disciples, "Assuredly I say to you, that with difficulty a rich [man] shall enter the kingdom of heaven.

23  And Jesus said unto his disciples, Verily I say unto you, It is hard for a rich man to enter into the kingdom of heaven.

19:24  And again I say to you, it is easier for a camel to pass through the eye of a needle than [for] a rich [man] to enter the kingdom of God."

24  Again I say to you, It is easier for a rope to go through the eye of a needle, than for a rich man to enter into the kingdom of God.

19:25  And when His disciples heard, they were greatly astonished, saying, "Who then is able to be saved?"

25  And upon hearing this, the disciples wondered greatly, saying: “Then who will be able to be saved?”

25  When the disciples heard it, they were exceedingly astonished, saying, Who then can be saved?

19:26  And looking on [them], Jesus said to them, "With men this is impossible, but with God all things are possible."

26  But Jesus, gazing at them, said to them: “With men, this is impossible. But with God, all things are possible.”

26  Jesus looked at them and said, For men this is impossible, but for God everything is possible.

19:27  Then Peter answered and said to Him, "See, we have left all and followed You. What then shall we have?"

27  Then Peter responded by saying to him: “Behold, we have left behind all things, and we have followed you. So then, what will be for us?”

19:28  So Jesus said to them, "Assuredly I say to you, that in the Regeneration, when the Son of Man sits on His glorious throne, you who have followed Me will also sit on twelve thrones, judging the twelve tribes of Israel.

28  And Jesus said unto them, Verily I say unto you, that ye who have followed me, in the regeneration when the Son of man shall sit on the throne of his glory, ye also shall sit upon twelve thrones, judging the twelve tribes of Israel.

19:29  And everyone who has left houses or brothers or sisters or father or mother or wife or children or lands, for My name's sake, shall receive a hundredfold, and shall inherit eternal life.

29  And anyone who has left behind home, or brothers, or sisters, or father, or mother, or wife, or children, or land, for the sake of my name, shall receive one hundred times more, and shall possess eternal life.

19:30  But many who are first will be last, and the last first.

30  But many shall be last [that are] first; and first [that are] last.

30  But many of those who are first shall be last, and the last shall be first.”

20:1  "For the kingdom of heaven is like a certain landowner who went out early in the morning to hire workers for his vineyard.

1  “The kingdom of heaven is like the father of a family who went out in early morning to lead workers into his vineyard.

20:2  And having agreed with the workers for a denarius a day, he sent them into his vineyard.

2  He bargained with the laborers for a penny a day, and sent them to his vineyard.

20:3  And going out about the third hour, he saw others standing idle in the marketplace.

3  And he went out at the third hour, and saw others standing idle in the market place.

20:4  And said to them, 'You also go into the vineyard, and whatever may be right I will give you.' So they went.

4  and to them he said, Go ye also into the vineyard, and whatsoever is right I will give you. And they went their way.

4  And he said to them, ‘You may go into my vineyard, too, and what I will give you will be just.’

20:5  Again going out about the sixth and the ninth hour, he did likewise.

5  So they went forth. But again, he went out about the sixth, and about the ninth hour, and he acted similarly.

5  And he went out again at the sixth and at the ninth hour, and did the same.

20:6  And about the eleventh hour, going out he found others standing idle, and said to them, 'Why do you stand here idle all day?'

6  Yet truly, about the eleventh hour, he went out and found others standing, and he said to them, ‘Why have you stood here idle all day?’

20:7  "They said to him, 'Because no one has hired us.' He said to them, 'You also go into the vineyard, and whatever is right you shall receive.'

7  They say unto him, Because no man hath hired us. He saith unto them, Go ye also into the vineyard.

20:8  "So when evening came, the owner of the vineyard said to his foreman, 'Call the workers and pay them their wages, beginning with the last to the first.'

8  And when even was come, the lord of the vineyard saith unto his steward, Call the laborers, and pay them their hire, beginning from the last unto the first.

8  When evening came, the owner of the vineyard said to his steward, Call the laborers and pay them their wages; and begin from the last ones to the first.

20:9  "And when those came [who were hired] about the eleventh hour, they each received a denarius.

9  And so, when those who had arrived about the eleventh hour came forward, each received a single denarius.

9  When those of the eleventh hour came, they each received a penny.

20:10  But when the first came, they supposed that they would receive more; and they also received each a denarius.

10  Then when the first ones also came forward, they considered that they would receive more. But they, too, received one denarius.

20:11  And when they had received it, they began grumbling against the landowner,

11  And upon receiving it, they murmured against the father of the family,

20:12  saying, 'These last [men] have worked only one hour, and you made them equal to us who have borne the burden and the heat of the day.'

20:13  "But he answered one of them and said, 'Friend, I am not wronging you. Did you not agree with me for a denarius?

13  He answered and said to one of them, My friend, I am not doing you an injustice; did you not bargain with me for a penny?

20:14  Take what is yours and go. But I want to give to this last [man] the same as to you.

14  Take up that which is thine, and go thy way; it is my will to give unto this last, even as unto thee.

14  Take that thine is, and go thy way: I will give unto this last, even as unto thee.

20:15  Is it not lawful for me to do what I wish with my own [things]? Or is your eye evil because I am good?'

15  And is it not lawful for me to do what I will? Or is your eye wicked because I am good?’

15  Have I no right to do what I wish with mine own? Or are you jealous because I am generous?

20:16  "Thus the last shall be first, and the first last. For many are called, but few [are ]chosen."

16  So the last shall be first, and the first last.

16  So then, the last shall be first, and the first shall be last. For many are called, but few are chosen.”

20:17  And as Jesus was going up to Jerusalem, He took aside the twelve disciples privately on the road, and He said to them,

17  And Jesus, ascending to Jerusalem, took the twelve disciples aside in private and said to them

20:18  "Behold, we are going up to Jerusalem, and the Son of Man will be betrayed to the chief priests and scribes, and they will condemn Him to death,

18  Behold, we go up to Jerusalem; and the Son of man shall be delivered unto the chief priests and scribes; and they shall condemn him to death,

18  “Behold, we are ascending to Jerusalem, and the Son of man shall be handed over to the leaders of the priests and to the scribes. And they shall condemn him to death.

20:19  and they will hand Him over to the Gentiles to mock and to scourge and to crucify. And the third day He shall rise again."

19  and shall deliver him unto the Gentiles to mock, and to scourge, and to crucify: and the third day he shall be raised up.

19  And they will deliver him to the Gentiles and they will mock him, and scourge him, and crucify him; and on the third day he will rise up.

20:20  Then the mother of Zebedee's sons came to Him with her sons, worshipping [Him,] and asking something from Him.

20  Then came to him the mother of the sons of Zebedee with her sons, worshipping [him], and asking a certain thing of him.

20  Then the mother of the sons of Zebedee came up to him, together with her sons; and she worshipped him, and requested something of him.

20:21  And He said to her, "What do you desire?"She said to Him, "Grant that these two sons of mine may sit, one on Your right hand and one on Your left, in Your kingdom."

21  And he said unto her, What wouldest thou? She saith unto him, Command that these my two sons may sit, one on thy right hand, and one on thy left hand, in thy kingdom.

21  He said to her, What do you wish? She said to him, Command that these two sons of mine sit, one at your right and one at your left, in your kingdom.

20:22  But Jesus answered and said, "You do not know what you ask. Are you able to drink the cup which I am about to drink, or to be baptized [with] the baptism that I am baptized with?"They said to Him, "We are able."

22  But Jesus, responding, said: “You do not know what you are asking. Are you able to drink from the chalice, from which I will drink?” They said to him, “We are able.”

20:23  So He said to them, "You will indeed drink My cup, and be baptized with the baptism [with ]which I am baptized with; but to sit on My right hand and on My left is not Mine to give, but it is to [those] for whom it has been prepared by My Father."

23  He saith unto them, My cup indeed ye shall drink: but to sit on my right hand, and on [my] left hand, is not mine to give; but [it is for them] for whom it hath been prepared of my Father.

20:24  And when the ten heard it, they were indignant with the two brothers.

24  And the ten, upon hearing this, became indignant with the two brothers.

24  When the ten heard it, they were angry at the two brothers.

20:25  But Jesus, having summoned them, said, "You know that the rulers of the Gentiles lord it over them, and their great ones exercise authority over them.

25  But Jesus called them to himself and said: “You know that the first ones among the Gentiles are their rulers, and that those who are greater exercise power among them.

25  And Jesus called them and said, You know that the princes of the people are also their owners; and their officials rule over them.

20:26  Yet it shall not be so among you; but whoever desires to become great among you, shall be your servant.

26  It shall not be this way among you. But whoever will want to be greater among you, let him be your minister.

26  Let not this be so among you; but whoever wishes to be great among you, let him be a minister to you;

20:27  And whoever desires to be first among you, let him be your slave;

27  and whosoever would be first among you shall be your servant

20:28  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."

28  even as the Son of man came not to be ministered unto, but to minister, and to give his life a ransom for many.

20:29  Now as they went out from Jericho, a great crowd followed Him.

29  And as they were departing from Jericho, a great crowd followed him.

29  And when Jesus went out of Jericho a large crowd followed him.

20:30  And behold, two blind men sitting alongside the road, when they heard that Jesus was passing by, cried out, saying, "Have pity on us, O Lord, Son of David!"

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, thou Son of David.

20:31  But the crowd warned them that they should be silent; but they cried out all the more, saying, "Have pity on us, O Lord, Son of David!"

31  And the multitude rebuked them, that they should hold their peace: but they cried out the more, saying, Lord, have mercy on us, thou son of David.

31  But the crowd rebuked them to be quiet. But they cried out all the more, saying, “Lord, Son of David, take pity on us.”

20:32  And having stood still, Jesus called them, and said, "What do you desire [that] I should do for you?"

32  And Jesus stood still, and called them, and said, What will ye that I should do unto you?

20:33  They said to Him, "Lord, that our eyes may be opened."

20:34  And Jesus, having compassion, touched their eyes, and immediately their eyes received sight, and they followed Him.

34  Then Jesus, taking pity on them, touched their eyes. And immediately they saw, and they followed him.
