< Matej 20 >

1 Kajti nebeško kraljestvo je podobno človeku gospodarju, kteri je zjutraj zgodaj izšel, da najeme delalcev v vinograd svoj.
“For the Kingdom of Heaven is like a man who was the master of a household, who went out early in the morning to hire laborers for his vineyard.
2 In pogodivši se z delalci po groši na dan, pošlje jih v vinograd svoj.
When he had agreed with the laborers for a denarius a day, he sent them into his vineyard.
3 In ko izide okoli tretje ure, ugleda druge, da stojé na trgu brez dela.
He went out about the third hour, and saw others standing idle in the marketplace.
4 In reče jim: Pojdite tudi vi v moj vinograd, in karkoli bo prav, dal vam bom.
He said to them, ‘You also go into the vineyard, and whatever is right I will give you.’ So they went their way.
5 Oni pa odidejo. Ko izide zopet o šestej in devetej uri, storí ravno tako.
Again he went out about the sixth and the ninth hour, and did likewise.
6 Ko pa izide okoli enajste ure, najde druge, da stojé brez dela. In reče jim: Kaj stojite tu ves dan brez dela?
About the eleventh hour he went out and found others standing idle. He said to them, ‘Why do you stand here all day idle?’
7 Rekó mu: Ker nas ni nihče najel. In velí jim: Pojdite tudi vi v moj vinograd, in karkoli bo prav, boste prejeli.
“They said to him, ‘Because no one has hired us.’ “He said to them, ‘You also go into the vineyard, and you will receive whatever is right.’
8 Ko se je pa zvečerilo, veli gospodar vinograda pristavniku svojemu: Pokliči delalce, in daj jim plačilo, počenši od zadnjih do prvih.
“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 In prišedši tisti, kteri so bili najeti okoli enajste ure, prejmó po groši.
“When those who were hired at about the eleventh hour came, they each received a denarius.
10 Ko pa pridejo prvi, mislijo, da bodo prejeli več; in tudi oni prejmó po groši.
When the first came, they supposed that they would receive more; and they likewise each received a denarius.
11 Prejemši pa, godrnjali so nad gospodarjem,
When they received it, they murmured against the master of the household,
12 Govoreč: Ti poslednji so delali eno uro, in naredil si jih enake nam, ki smo prenesli breme vsega dné in vročino.
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 On pa odgovorí in reče enemu od njih: Prijatelj! ne delam ti krivice. Ali se nisi pogodil z menoj po groši?
“But he answered one of them, ‘Friend, I am doing you no wrong. Didn’t you agree with me for a denarius?
14 Vzemi svoje in pojdi! Hočem pa dati temu poslednjemu, kakor tudi tebi.
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 Ali mar ne smem jaz s svojim storiti, kar hočem? Je li oko tvoje hudobno, ker sem jaz dober?
Isn’t it lawful for me to do what I want to with what I own? Or is your eye evil, because I am good?’
16 Tako bodo zadnji prvi, in prvi zadnji; kajti mnogo je poklicanih, a malo izvoljenih.
So the last will be first, and the first last. For many are called, but few are chosen.”
17 In ko je šel Jezus v Jeruzalem, vzeme po poti dvanajstere učence na stran in jim reče:
As Yeshua was going up to Jerusalem, he took the twelve disciples aside, and on the way he said to them,
18 Glej, v Jeruzalem gremo, in sin človečji bo izdan vélikim duhovnom in pismarjem; in obsodili ga bodo na smrt.
“Behold, we are going up to Jerusalem, and the Son of Man will be delivered to the chief priests and scribes, and they will condemn him to death,
19 In izročili ga bodo poganom, naj ga zasmehujejo, in bičajo, in križajo; in tretji dan bo vstal od smrti.
and will hand him over to the Gentiles to mock, to scourge, and to crucify; and the third day he will be raised up.”
20 Tedaj pristopi k njemu mati Zebedejevih sinov s svojima sinoma, ter mu se je poklanjala in ga nekaj prosila.
Then the mother of the sons of Zebedee came to him with her sons, kneeling and asking a certain thing of him.
21 On ji pa reče: Kaj hočeš? Reče mu: Reci, naj sedeta ta dva moja sina, eden tebi na desno, in eden tebi na levo v kraljestvu tvojem.
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 Jezus pa odgovorí in reče: Ne vésta, kaj prosita. Moreta li piti kelih, ki ga bom jaz pil, in krstiti se s krstom, s kterim se jaz krstim? Rečeta mu: Moreva.
But Yeshua answered, “You don’t know what you are asking. Are you able to drink the cup that I am about to drink, and be immersed with the immersion that I am immersed with?” They said to him, “We are able.”
23 In reče jima: Kelih moj bosta torej pila, in s krstom, s kterim se jaz krstim, bosta se krstila; ali da bi sedla meni na desno in meni na levo, ne morem jaz dati, nego to se bo dalo tistim, kterim je pripravljeno od očeta mojega.
He said to them, “You will indeed drink my cup, and be immersed with the immersion that I am immersed with; 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 In slišavši to deseteri, ujezé se nad tema dvema bratoma.
When the ten heard it, they were indignant with the two brothers.
25 Jezus jih pa pokliče in reče: Véste, da knezi narodov nad temi gospodujejo, in poglavarji jim vladajo.
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 Ne bo pa tako med vami: nego kdor hoče velik postati med vami, bodi vam služabnik;
It shall not be so among you; but whoever desires to become great among you shall be your servant.
27 In kdor hoče prvi biti med vami, bodi vam hlapec.
Whoever desires to be first among you shall be your bondservant,
28 Kakor sin človečji ni prišel, da bi mu služili, nego da služi, in dá življenje svoje v odkup za mnoge.
even as the Son of Man came not to be served, but to serve, and to give his life as a ransom for many.”
29 In ko so šli iz Jerihe, šlo je za njim mnogo ljudstva.
As they went out from Jericho, a great multitude followed him.
30 In glej, dva slepca sta sedela kraj poti, in slišavši, da gre Jezus mimo, zakričita, govoreč: Usmili se naju, Gospod, sin Davidov!
Behold, two blind men sitting by the road, when they heard that Yeshua was passing by, cried out, “Lord, have mercy on us, you son of David!”
31 Ljudstvo jima pa zapretí, naj umolkneta. Ona dva pa še bolj zavpijeta, govoreč: usmili se naju, gospod, sin Davidov!
The multitude rebuked them, telling them that they should be quiet, but they cried out even more, “Lord, have mercy on us, you son of David!”
32 In Jezus se ustavi in ju pokliče, ter reče: Kaj hočeta, da vama storím?
Yeshua stood still and called them, and asked, “What do you want me to do for you?”
33 Rečeta mu: Gospod! da se nama očí odpró.
They told him, “Lord, that our eyes may be opened.”
34 Jezusu se pa zasmilita, in dotakne se njunih očî. In precej so spregledale njune očí, in šla sta za njim.
Yeshua, being moved with compassion, touched their eyes; and immediately their eyes received their sight, and they followed him.
