葡萄园的比喻

1「因为天国好像家主清早去雇人进他的葡萄园做工，

2和工人讲定一天一钱银子，就打发他们进葡萄园去。

3约在巳初出去，看见市上还有闲站的人，

4就对他们说：『你们也进葡萄园去，所当给的，我必给你们。』他们也进去了。

5约在午正和申初又出去，也是这样行。

6约在酉初出去，看见还有人站在那里，就问他们说：『你们为什么整天在这里闲站呢？』

7他们说：『因为没有人雇我们。』他说：『你们也进葡萄园去。』

8到了晚上，园主对管事的说：『叫工人都来，给他们工钱，从后来的起，到先来的为止。

9约在酉初雇的人来了，各人得了一钱银子。

10及至那先雇的来了，他们以为必要多得；谁知也是各得一钱。

11他们得了，就埋怨家主说：

12『我们整天劳苦受热，那后来的只做了一小时，你竟叫他们和我们一样吗？』

13家主回答其中的一人说：『朋友，我不亏负你，你与我讲定的不是一钱银子吗？

14拿你的走吧！我给那后来的和给你一样，这是我愿意的。

15我的东西难道不可随我的意思用吗？因为我作好人，你就红了眼吗？』

16这样，那在后的，将要在前；在前的，将要在后了。」

耶稣第三次预言受难和复活

17耶稣上耶路撒冷去的时候，在路上把十二个门徒带到一边，对他们说：

18「看哪，我们上耶路撒冷去，人子要被交给祭司长和文士。他们要定他死罪，

19又交给外邦人，将他戏弄，鞭打，钉在十字架上；第三日他要复活。」

母亲的请求

20那时，西庇太儿子的母亲同她两个儿子上前来拜耶稣，求他一件事。

21耶稣说：「你要什么呢？」她说：「愿你叫我这两个儿子在你国里，一个坐在你右边，一个坐在你左边。」

22耶稣回答说：「你们不知道所求的是什么；我将要喝的杯，你们能喝吗？」他们说：「我们能。」

23耶稣说：「我所喝的杯，你们必要喝；只是坐在我的左右，不是我可以赐的，乃是我父为谁预备的，就赐给谁。」

24那十个门徒听见，就恼怒他们弟兄二人。

25耶稣叫了他们来，说：「你们知道外邦人有君王为主治理他们，有大臣操权管束他们。

26只是在你们中间，不可这样；你们中间谁愿为大，就必作你们的用人；

27谁愿为首，就必作你们的仆人。

28正如人子来，不是要受人的服事，乃是要服事人，并且要舍命，作多人的赎价。」

治好两个瞎子

29他们出耶利哥的时候，有极多的人跟随他。

30有两个瞎子坐在路旁，听说是耶稣经过，就喊着说：「主啊，大卫的子孙，可怜我们吧！」

31众人责备他们，不许他们作声；他们却越发喊着说：「主啊，大卫的子孙，可怜我们吧！」

32耶稣就站住，叫他们来，说：「要我为你们做什么？」

33他们说：「主啊，要我们的眼睛能看见！」

34耶稣就动了慈心，把他们的眼睛一摸，他们立刻看见，就跟从了耶稣。

1The kingdom of heaven is like to an householder, who went out early in the morning to hire labourers into his vineyard.

2And having agreed with the labourers for a penny a day, he sent them into his vineyard.

3And going about the third hour, he saw others standing in the market place idle.

4And he said to them: Go you also into my vineyard, and I will give you what shall be just.

5And they went their way. And again he went out about the sixth and the ninth hour, and did in like manner.

6But about the eleventh hour he went out and found others standing, and he saith to them: Why stand you here all the day idle?

7They say to him: Because no man hath hired us. He saith to them: Go you also into my vineyard.

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

9When therefore they were come, that came about the eleventh hour, they received every man a penny.

10But when the first also came, they thought that they should receive more: and they also received every man a penny.

11And receiving it they murmured against the master of the house,

12Saying: These last have worked but one hour, and thou hast made them equal to us, that have borne the burden of the day and the heats.

13But he answering said to one of them: Friend, I do thee no wrong: didst thou not agree with me for a penny?

14Take what is thine, and go thy way: I will also give to this last even as to thee.

15Or, is it not lawful for me to do what I will? is thy eye evil, because I am good?

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

17And Jesus going up to Jerusalem, took the twelve disciples apart, and said to them:

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

19And shall deliver him to the Gentiles to be mocked, and scourged, and crucified, and the third day he shall rise again.

20Then came to him the mother of the sons of Zebedee with her sons, adoring and asking something of him.

21Who said to her: What wilt thou? She saith to him: Say that these my two sons may sit, the one on thy right hand, and the other on thy left, in thy kingdom.

22And Jesus answering, said: You know not what you ask. Can you drink the chalice that I shall drink? They say to him: We can.

23He saith to them: My chalice indeed you shall drink; but to sit on my right or left hand, is not mine to give to you, but to them for whom it is prepared by my Father.

24And the ten hearing it, were moved with indignation against the two brethren.

25But Jesus called them to him, and said: You know that the princes of the Gentiles lord it over them; and they that are the greater, exercise power upon them.

26It shall not be so among you: but whosoever will be the greater among you, let him be your minister:

27And he that will be first among you, shall be your servant.

28Even as the Son of man is not come to be ministered unto, but to minister, and to give his life a redemption for many.

29And when they went out from Jericho, a great multitude followed him.

30And behold two blind men sitting by the way side, heard that Jesus passed by, and they cried out, saying: O Lord, thou son of David, have mercy on us.

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

32And Jesus stood, and called them, and said: What will ye that I do to you?

33They say to him: Lord, that our eyes be opened.

34And Jesus having compassion on them, touched their eyes. And immediately they saw, and followed him.
