ܡܬܝ 22
| ܘܥܢܐ ܬܘܒ ܝܫܘܥ ܒܡܬܠܐ ܘܐܡܪ | 1 |
Jesus answered and spoke again in parables to them, saying,
| ܐܬܕܡܝܬ ܡܠܟܘܬܐ ܕܫܡܝܐ ܠܓܒܪܐ ܡܠܟܐ ܕܥܒܕ ܡܫܬܘܬܐ ܠܒܪܗ | 2 |
"The kingdom of heaven is like a certain king, who made a marriage feast for his son,
| ܘܫܕܪ ܠܥܒܕܘܗܝ ܕܢܩܪܘܢ ܠܡܙܡܢܐ ܠܡܫܬܘܬܐ ܘܠܐ ܨܒܘ ܠܡܐܬܐ | 3 |
and sent out his servants to call those who were invited to the marriage feast, but they would not come.
| ܬܘܒ ܫܕܪ ܥܒܕܐ ܐܚܪܢܐ ܘܐܡܪ ܐܡܪܘ ܠܡܙܡܢܐ ܕܗܐ ܫܪܘܬܝ ܡܛܝܒܐ ܘܬܘܪܝ ܘܡܦܛܡܝ ܩܛܝܠܝܢ ܘܟܠ ܡܕܡ ܡܛܝܒ ܬܘ ܠܡܫܬܘܬܐ | 4 |
Again he sent out other servants, saying, 'Tell those who are invited, "Look, I have made ready my dinner. My cattle and my fatlings are killed, and all things are ready. Come to the marriage feast."'
| ܗܢܘܢ ܕܝܢ ܒܤܘ ܘܐܙܠܘ ܐܝܬ ܕܠܩܪܝܬܗ ܘܐܝܬ ܕܠܬܐܓܘܪܬܗ | 5 |
But they made light of it, and went their ways, one to his own farm, another to his merchandise,
| ܫܪܟܐ ܕܝܢ ܐܚܕܘ ܠܥܒܕܘܗܝ ܘܨܥܪܘ ܘܩܛܠܘ | 6 |
and the rest grabbed his servants, and treated them shamefully, and killed them.
| ܟܕ ܫܡܥ ܕܝܢ ܡܠܟܐ ܪܓܙ ܘܫܕܪ ܚܝܠܘܬܗ ܐܘܒܕ ܠܩܛܘܠܐ ܗܢܘܢ ܘܠܡܕܝܢܬܗܘܢ ܐܘܩܕ | 7 |
The king was enraged, and sent his armies, destroyed those murderers, and burned their city.
| ܗܝܕܝܢ ܐܡܪ ܠܥܒܕܘܗܝ ܡܫܬܘܬܐ ܡܛܝܒܐ ܘܗܢܘܢ ܕܡܙܡܢܝܢ ܗܘܘ ܠܐ ܫܘܝܢ ܗܘܘ | 8 |
"Then he said to his servants, 'The wedding is ready, but those who were invited weren't worthy.
| ܙܠܘ ܗܟܝܠ ܠܡܦܩܢܐ ܕܐܘܪܚܬܐ ܘܟܠ ܡܢ ܕܡܫܟܚܝܢ ܐܢܬܘܢ ܩܪܘ ܠܡܫܬܘܬܐ | 9 |
Go therefore to the intersections of the highways, and as many as you may find, invite to the marriage feast.'
| ܘܢܦܩܘ ܥܒܕܐ ܗܢܘܢ ܠܐܘܪܚܬܐ ܘܟܢܫܘ ܟܠ ܕܐܫܟܚܘ ܒܝܫܐ ܘܛܒܐ ܘܐܬܡܠܝ ܒܝܬ ܡܫܬܘܬܐ ܤܡܝܟܐ | 10 |
And those servants went out into the highways, and gathered together all they found, both bad and good, and the wedding was filled with those reclining.
| ܘܥܠ ܡܠܟܐ ܕܢܚܙܐ ܤܡܝܟܐ ܘܚܙܐ ܬܡܢ ܓܒܪܐ ܕܠܐ ܠܒܝܫ ܠܒܘܫܐ ܕܡܫܬܘܬܐ | 11 |
But when the king came in to see the guests, he saw there a man who did not have on wedding clothing,
| ܘܐܡܪ ܠܗ ܚܒܪܝ ܐܝܟܢܐ ܥܠܬ ܠܟܐ ܟܕ ܢܚܬܐ ܕܡܫܬܘܬܐ ܠܝܬ ܠܟ ܗܘ ܕܝܢ ܐܫܬܬܩ | 12 |
and he said to him, 'Friend, how did you come in here not wearing wedding clothing?' He was speechless.
| ܗܝܕܝܢ ܐܡܪ ܡܠܟܐ ܠܡܫܡܫܢܐ ܐܤܘܪܘ ܐܝܕܘܗܝ ܘܪܓܠܘܗܝ ܘܐܦܩܘܗܝ ܠܚܫܘܟܐ ܒܪܝܐ ܬܡܢ ܢܗܘܐ ܒܟܝܐ ܘܚܘܪܩ ܫܢܐ | 13 |
Then the king said to the servants, 'Bind him hand and foot, and throw him into the outer darkness; there is where the weeping and grinding of teeth will be.'
| ܤܓܝܐܝܢ ܐܢܘܢ ܓܝܪ ܩܪܝܐ ܘܙܥܘܪܝܢ ܓܒܝܐ | 14 |
For many are called, but few chosen."
| ܗܝܕܝܢ ܐܙܠܘ ܦܪܝܫܐ ܢܤܒܘ ܡܠܟܐ ܕܐܝܟܢܐ ܢܨܘܕܘܢܝܗܝ ܒܡܠܬܐ | 15 |
Then the Pharisees went and took counsel how they might entrap him in his talk.
| ܘܫܕܪܘ ܠܘܬܗ ܬܠܡܝܕܝܗܘܢ ܥܡ ܕܒܝܬ ܗܪܘܕܤ ܘܐܡܪܝܢ ܠܗ ܡܠܦܢܐ ܝܕܥܝܢܢ ܕܫܪܝܪ ܐܢܬ ܘܐܘܪܚܐ ܕܐܠܗܐ ܒܩܘܫܬܐ ܡܠܦ ܐܢܬ ܘܠܐ ܫܩܝܠ ܐܢܬ ܨܦܬܐ ܕܐܢܫ ܠܐ ܓܝܪ ܢܤܒ ܐܢܬ ܒܐܦܐ ܕܐܢܫܐ | 16 |
They sent their disciples to him, along with the Herodians, saying, "Teacher, we know that you are honest, and teach the way of God in truth, no matter whom you teach, for you are not partial to anyone.
| ܐܡܪ ܠܢ ܗܟܝܠ ܐܝܟܢܐ ܡܬܚܙܐ ܠܟ ܫܠܝܛ ܠܡܬܠ ܟܤܦ ܪܫܐ ܠܩܤܪ ܐܘ ܠܐ | 17 |
Tell us therefore, what do you think? Is it lawful to pay taxes to Caesar, or not?"
| ܝܫܘܥ ܕܝܢ ܝܕܥ ܒܝܫܘܬܗܘܢ ܘܐܡܪ ܡܢܐ ܡܢܤܝܢ ܐܢܬܘܢ ܠܝ ܢܤܒܝ ܒܐܦܐ | 18 |
But Jesus perceived their wickedness, and said, "Why do you test me, you hypocrites?
| ܚܘܐܘܢܝ ܕܝܢܪܐ ܕܟܤܦ ܪܫܐ ܗܢܘܢ ܕܝܢ ܩܪܒܘ ܠܗ ܕܝܢܪܐ | 19 |
Show me the tax money." They brought to him a denarius.
| ܘܐܡܪ ܠܗܘܢ ܝܫܘܥ ܕܡܢܘ ܨܠܡܐ ܗܢܐ ܘܟܬܒܐ | 20 |
He asked them, "Whose is this image and inscription?"
| ܐܡܪܝܢ ܕܩܤܪ ܐܡܪ ܠܗܘܢ ܗܒܘ ܗܟܝܠ ܕܩܤܪ ܠܩܤܪ ܘܕܐܠܗܐ ܠܐܠܗܐ | 21 |
They said to him, "Caesar's." Then he said to them, "Give therefore to Caesar the things that are Caesar's, and to God the things that are God's."
| ܘܟܕ ܫܡܥܘ ܐܬܕܡܪܘ ܘܫܒܩܘܗܝ ܘܐܙܠܘ | 22 |
When they heard it, they were astonished, and left him, and went away.
| ܒܗܘ ܝܘܡܐ ܩܪܒܘ ܙܕܘܩܝܐ ܘܐܡܪܝܢ ܠܗ ܠܝܬ ܚܝܬ ܡܝܬܐ ܘܫܐܠܘܗܝ | 23 |
On that day Sadducees came to him, the ones saying that there is no resurrection. And they asked him,
| ܘܐܡܪܝܢ ܠܗ ܡܠܦܢܐ ܡܘܫܐ ܐܡܪ ܠܢ ܕܐܢ ܐܢܫ ܢܡܘܬ ܟܕ ܠܝܬ ܠܗ ܒܢܝܐ ܢܤܒ ܐܚܘܗܝ ܐܢܬܬܗ ܘܢܩܝܡ ܙܪܥܐ ܠܐܚܘܗܝ | 24 |
saying, "Teacher, Moses said, 'If a man dies, having no children, his brother is to marry his wife, and raise up offspring for his brother.'
| ܐܝܬ ܗܘܘ ܕܝܢ ܠܘܬܢ ܐܚܐ ܫܒܥܐ ܩܕܡܝܐ ܫܩܠ ܐܢܬܬܐ ܘܡܝܬ ܘܕܠܝܬ ܗܘܐ ܠܗ ܒܢܝܐ ܫܒܩܗ ܐܢܬܬܗ ܠܐܚܘܗܝ | 25 |
Now there were with us seven brothers. The first married and died, and having no offspring, left his wife to his brother.
| ܗܟܘܬ ܐܦ ܗܘ ܕܬܪܝܢ ܘܐܦ ܗܘ ܕܬܠܬܐ ܘܥܕܡܐ ܠܫܒܥܬܝܗܘܢ | 26 |
In like manner the second also, and the third, to the seventh.
| ܒܚܪܬܐ ܕܝܢ ܕܟܠܗܘܢ ܡܝܬܬ ܐܦ ܐܢܬܬܐ | 27 |
After them all, the woman died.
| ܒܩܝܡܬܐ ܗܟܝܠ ܠܐܝܢܐ ܡܢ ܗܠܝܢ ܫܒܥܐ ܬܗܘܐ ܐܢܬܬܐ ܟܠܗܘܢ ܓܝܪ ܢܤܒܘܗ | 28 |
In the resurrection therefore, whose wife will she be of the seven? For they all had her."
| ܥܢܐ ܝܫܘܥ ܘܐܡܪ ܠܗܘܢ ܛܥܝܢ ܐܢܬܘܢ ܕܠܐ ܝܕܥܝܢ ܐܢܬܘܢ ܟܬܒܐ ܘܠܐ ܚܝܠܗ ܕܐܠܗܐ | 29 |
But Jesus answered them, "You are mistaken, not knowing the Scriptures, nor the power of God.
| ܒܩܝܡܬܐ ܓܝܪ ܕܡܝܬܐ ܠܐ ܢܤܒܝܢ ܢܫܐ ܐܦܠܐ ܢܫܐ ܗܘܝܢ ܠܓܒܪܐ ܐܠܐ ܐܝܟ ܡܠܐܟܐ ܕܐܠܗܐ ܒܫܡܝܐ ܐܝܬܝܗܘܢ | 30 |
For in the resurrection they neither marry, nor are given in marriage, but are like the angels in heaven.
| ܥܠ ܩܝܡܬܐ ܕܝܢ ܕܡܝܬܐ ܠܐ ܩܪܝܬܘܢ ܡܕܡ ܕܐܬܐܡܪ ܠܟܘܢ ܡܢ ܐܠܗܐ ܕܐܡܪ | 31 |
But concerning the resurrection of the dead, have you not read that which was spoken to you by God, saying,
| ܕܐܢܐ ܐܢܐ ܐܠܗܗ ܕܐܒܪܗܡ ܐܠܗܗ ܕܐܝܤܚܩ ܐܠܗܗ ܕܝܥܩܘܒ ܘܐܠܗܐ ܠܐ ܗܘܐ ܕܡܝܬܐ ܐܠܐ ܕܚܝܐ | 32 |
'I am the God of Abraham, and the God of Isaac, and the God of Jacob?' God is not the God of the dead, but of the living."
| ܘܟܕ ܫܡܥܘ ܟܢܫܐ ܡܬܬܡܗܝܢ ܗܘܘ ܒܝܘܠܦܢܗ | 33 |
When the crowds heard it, they were astonished at his teaching.
| ܦܪܝܫܐ ܕܝܢ ܟܕ ܫܡܥܘ ܕܫܬܩ ܠܙܕܘܩܝܐ ܐܬܟܢܫܘ ܐܟܚܕܐ | 34 |
But the Pharisees, when they heard that he had silenced the Sadducees, gathered themselves together.
| ܘܫܐܠܗ ܚܕ ܡܢܗܘܢ ܕܝܕܥ ܢܡܘܤܐ ܟܕ ܡܢܤܐ ܠܗ | 35 |
One of them, a Law scholar, asked him a question, testing him.
| ܡܠܦܢܐ ܐܝܢܐ ܦܘܩܕܢܐ ܪܒ ܒܢܡܘܤܐ | 36 |
"Teacher, which is the greatest commandment in the law?"
| ܝܫܘܥ ܕܝܢ ܐܡܪ ܠܗ ܕܬܪܚܡ ܠܡܪܝܐ ܐܠܗܟ ܡܢ ܟܠܗ ܠܒܟ ܘܡܢ ܟܠܗ ܢܦܫܟ ܘܡܢ ܟܠܗ ܚܝܠܟ ܘܡܢ ܟܠܗ ܪܥܝܢܟ | 37 |
He said to him, "'You are to love the Lord your God with all your heart, with all your soul, and with all your mind.'
| ܗܢܘ ܦܘܩܕܢܐ ܪܒܐ ܘܩܕܡܝܐ | 38 |
This is the great and first commandment.
| ܘܕܬܪܝܢ ܕܕܡܐ ܠܗ ܕܬܪܚܡ ܠܩܪܝܒܟ ܐܝܟ ܢܦܫܟ | 39 |
A second likewise is this, 'You are to love your neighbor as yourself.'
| ܒܗܠܝܢ ܬܪܝܢ ܦܘܩܕܢܝܢ ܬܠܝܐ ܐܘܪܝܬܐ ܘܢܒܝܐ | 40 |
The whole Law and the Prophets depend on these two commandments."
| ܟܕ ܟܢܝܫܝܢ ܕܝܢ ܦܪܝܫܐ ܫܐܠ ܐܢܘܢ ܝܫܘܥ | 41 |
Now while the Pharisees were gathered together, Jesus asked them a question,
| ܘܐܡܪ ܡܢܐ ܐܡܪܝܢ ܐܢܬܘܢ ܥܠ ܡܫܝܚܐ ܒܪ ܡܢܘ ܐܡܪܝܢ ܠܗ ܒܪ ܕܘܝܕ | 42 |
saying, "What do you think of the Christ? Whose son is he?" They said to him, "Of David."
| ܐܡܪ ܠܗܘܢ ܘܐܝܟܢܐ ܕܘܝܕ ܒܪܘܚ ܩܪܐ ܠܗ ܡܪܝܐ ܐܡܪ ܓܝܪ | 43 |
He said to them, "How then does David in the Spirit call him Lord, saying,
| ܕܐܡܪ ܡܪܝܐ ܠܡܪܝ ܬܒ ܠܟ ܡܢ ܝܡܝܢܝ ܥܕܡܐ ܕܐܤܝܡ ܒܥܠܕܒܒܝܟ ܬܚܝܬ ܪܓܠܝܟ | 44 |
'The Lord said to my Lord, sit on my right hand, until I make your enemies the footstool of your feet'?
| ܐܢ ܗܟܝܠ ܕܘܝܕ ܩܪܐ ܠܗ ܡܪܝܐ ܐܝܟܢܐ ܒܪܗ ܗܘ | 45 |
"If then David calls him Lord, how is he his son?"
| ܘܠܐ ܐܢܫ ܐܫܟܚ ܕܢܬܠ ܠܗ ܦܬܓܡܐ ܘܠܐ ܐܢܫ ܐܡܪܚ ܬܘܒ ܡܢ ܗܘ ܝܘܡܐ ܠܡܫܐܠܘܬܗ | 46 |
No one was able to answer him a word, neither did anyone dare ask him any more questions from that day forth.
