Matthew

21

1And when they drew nigh unto Jerusalem, and came unto Bethphage, unto the mount of Olives, then Jesus sent two disciples,
1ܘܟܕ ܩܪܒ ܠܐܘܪܫܠܡ ܘܐܬܐ ܠܒܝܬ ܦܓܐ ܥܠ ܓܢܒ ܛܘܪܐ ܕܙܝܬܐ ܫܕܪ ܝܫܘܥ ܬܪܝܢ ܡܢ ܬܠܡܝܕܘܗܝ ܀
2saying unto them, Go into the village that is over against you, and straightway ye shall find an ass tied, and a colt with her: loose [them], and bring [them] unto me.
2ܘܐܡܪ ܠܗܘܢ ܙܠܘ ܠܩܪܝܬܐ ܗܕܐ ܕܠܩܘܒܠܟܘܢ ܘܡܚܕܐ ܡܫܟܚܝܢ ܐܢܬܘܢ ܚܡܪܐ ܕܐܤܝܪܐ ܘܥܝܠܐ ܥܡܗ ܫܪܘ ܐܝܬܘ ܠܝ ܀
3And if any one say aught unto you, ye shall say, The Lord hath need of them; and straightway he will send them.
3ܘܐܢ ܐܢܫ ܐܡܪ ܠܟܘܢ ܡܕܡ ܐܡܪܘ ܠܗ ܕܠܡܪܢ ܡܬܒܥܝܢ ܘܡܚܕܐ ܡܫܕܪ ܠܗܘܢ ܠܟܐ ܀
4Now this is come to pass, that it might be fulfilled which was spoken through the prophet, saying,
4ܗܕܐ ܕܝܢ ܕܗܘܬ ܕܢܬܡܠܐ ܡܕܡ ܕܐܬܐܡܪ ܒܝܕ ܢܒܝܐ ܕܐܡܪ ܀
5Tell ye the daughter of Zion, Behold, thy King cometh unto thee, Meek, and riding upon an ass, And upon a colt the foal of an ass.
5ܐܡܪܘ ܠܒܪܬ ܨܗܝܘܢ ܗܐ ܡܠܟܟܝ ܐܬܐ ܠܟܝ ܡܟܝܟ ܘܪܟܝܒ ܥܠ ܚܡܪܐ ܘܥܠ ܥܝܠܐ ܒܪ ܐܬܢܐ ܀
6And the disciples went, and did even as Jesus appointed them,
6ܘܐܙܠܘ ܬܠܡܝܕܐ ܘܥܒܕܘ ܐܝܟܢܐ ܕܦܩܕ ܠܗܘܢ ܝܫܘܥ ܀
7and brought the ass, and the colt, and put on them their garments; and he sat thereon.
7ܘܐܝܬܝܘ ܠܚܡܪܐ ܘܠܥܝܠܐ ܘܤܡܘ ܥܠ ܥܝܠܐ ܢܚܬܝܗܘܢ ܘܪܟܒ ܥܠܘܗܝ ܝܫܘܥ ܀
8And the most part of the multitude spread their garments in the way; and others cut branches from the trees, and spread them in the way.
8ܘܤܘܓܐܐ ܕܟܢܫܐ ܡܫܘܝܢ ܗܘܘ ܡܐܢܝܗܘܢ ܒܐܘܪܚܐ ܐܚܪܢܐ ܕܝܢ ܦܤܩܝܢ ܗܘܘ ܤܘܟܐ ܡܢ ܐܝܠܢܐ ܘܪܡܝܢ ܒܐܘܪܚܐ ܀
9And the multitudes that went before him, and that followed, cried, saying, Hosanna to the son of David: Blessed [is] he that cometh in the name of the Lord; Hosanna in the highest.
9ܟܢܫܐ ܕܝܢ ܐܝܠܝܢ ܕܐܙܠܝܢ ܗܘܘ ܩܕܡܘܗܝ ܘܐܬܝܢ ܒܬܪܗ ܩܥܝܢ ܗܘܘ ܘܐܡܪܝܢ ܐܘܫܥܢܐ ܠܒܪܗ ܕܕܘܝܕ ܒܪܝܟ ܗܘ ܕܐܬܐ ܒܫܡܗ ܕܡܪܝܐ ܐܘܫܥܢܐ ܒܡܪܘܡܐ ܀
10And when he was come into Jerusalem, all the city was stirred, saying, Who is this?
10ܘܟܕ ܥܠ ܠܐܘܪܫܠܡ ܐܬܬܙܝܥܬ ܟܠܗ ܡܕܝܢܬܐ ܘܐܡܪܝܢ ܗܘܘ ܡܢܘ ܗܢܐ ܀
11And the multitudes said, This is the prophet, Jesus, from Nazareth of Galilee.
11ܟܢܫܐ ܕܝܢ ܐܡܪܝܢ ܗܘܘ ܗܢܘ ܝܫܘܥ ܢܒܝܐ ܕܡܢ ܢܨܪܬ ܕܓܠܝܠܐ ܀
12And Jesus entered into the temple of God, and cast out all them that sold and bought in the temple, and overthrew the tables of he money-changers, and the seats of them that sold the doves;
12ܘܥܠ ܝܫܘܥ ܠܗܝܟܠܐ ܕܐܠܗܐ ܘܐܦܩ ܠܟܠܗܘܢ ܕܙܒܢܝܢ ܘܡܙܒܢܝܢ ܒܗܝܟܠܐ ܘܤܚܦ ܦܬܘܪܐ ܕܡܥܪܦܢܐ ܘܟܘܪܤܘܬܐ ܕܗܢܘܢ ܕܡܙܒܢܝܢ ܝܘܢܐ ܀
13and he saith unto them, It is written, My house shall be called a house of prayer: but ye make it a den of robbers.
13ܘܐܡܪ ܠܗܘܢ ܟܬܝܒ ܗܘ ܕܒܝܬܝ ܒܝܬ ܨܠܘܬܐ ܢܬܩܪܐ ܐܢܬܘܢ ܕܝܢ ܥܒܕܬܘܢܝܗܝ ܡܥܪܬܐ ܕܠܤܛܝܐ ܀
14And the blind and the lame came to him in the temple; and he healed them.
14ܘܩܪܒܘ ܠܗ ܒܗܝܟܠܐ ܤܡܝܐ ܘܚܓܝܤܐ ܘܐܤܝ ܐܢܘܢ ܀
15But when the chief priests and the scribes saw the wonderful things that he did, and the children that were crying in the temple and saying, Hosanna to the son of David; they were moved with indignation,
15ܟܕ ܚܙܘ ܕܝܢ ܪܒܝ ܟܗܢܐ ܘܦܪܝܫܐ ܬܕܡܪܬܐ ܕܥܒܕ ܘܛܠܝܐ ܕܩܥܝܢ ܒܗܝܟܠܐ ܘܐܡܪܝܢ ܐܘܫܥܢܐ ܠܒܪܗ ܕܕܘܝܕ ܐܬܒܐܫ ܠܗܘܢ ܀
16and said unto him, Hearest thou what these are saying? And Jesus saith unto them, Yea: did ye never read, Out of the mouth of babes and sucklings thou has perfected praise?
16ܘܐܡܪܝܢ ܠܗ ܫܡܥ ܐܢܬ ܡܢܐ ܐܡܪܝܢ ܗܠܝܢ ܐܡܪ ܠܗܘܢ ܝܫܘܥ ܐܝܢ ܡܢ ܡܬܘܡ ܠܐ ܩܪܝܬܘܢ ܕܡܢ ܦܘܡܐ ܕܛܠܝܐ ܘܕܝܠܘܕܐ ܬܩܢܬ ܬܫܒܘܚܬܐ ܀
17And he left them, and went forth out of the city to Bethany, and lodged there.
17ܘܫܒܩ ܐܢܘܢ ܘܢܦܩ ܠܒܪ ܡܢ ܡܕܝܢܬܐ ܠܒܝܬ ܥܢܝܐ ܘܒܬ ܬܡܢ ܀
18Now in the morning as he returned to the city, he hungered.
18ܒܨܦܪܐ ܕܝܢ ܟܕ ܗܦܟ ܠܡܕܝܢܬܐ ܟܦܢ ܀
19And seeing a fig tree by the way side, he came to it, and found nothing thereon, but leaves only; and he saith unto it, Let there be no fruit from thee henceforward for ever. And immediately the fig tree withered away.
19ܘܚܙܐ ܬܬܐ ܚܕܐ ܒܐܘܪܚܐ ܘܐܬܐ ܠܘܬܗ ܘܠܐ ܐܫܟܚ ܒܗ ܡܕܡ ܐܠܐ ܐܢ ܛܪܦܐ ܒܠܚܘܕ ܘܐܡܪ ܠܗ ܠܐ ܢܗܘܘܢ ܒܟܝ ܬܘܒ ܦܐܪܐ ܠܥܠܡ ܘܡܚܕܐ ܝܒܫܬ ܬܬܐ ܗܝ ܀
20And when the disciples saw it, they marvelled, saying, How did the fig tree immediately wither away?
20ܘܚܙܘ ܬܠܡܝܕܐ ܘܬܗܪܘ ܘܐܡܪܝܢ ܐܝܟܢܐ ܒܪ ܫܥܬܗ ܝܒܫܬ ܬܬܐ ܀
21And Jesus answered and said unto them, Verily I say unto you, If ye have faith, and doubt not, ye shall not only do what is done to the fig tree, but even if ye shall say unto this mountain, Be thou taken up and cast into the sea, it shall be done.
21ܥܢܐ ܝܫܘܥ ܘܐܡܪ ܠܗܘܢ ܐܡܝܢ ܐܡܪ ܐܢܐ ܠܟܘܢ ܕܐܢ ܬܗܘܐ ܒܟܘܢ ܗܝܡܢܘܬܐ ܘܠܐ ܬܬܦܠܓܘܢ ܠܐ ܒܠܚܘܕ ܗܕܐ ܕܬܬܐ ܬܥܒܕܘܢ ܐܠܐ ܐܦܢ ܠܛܘܪܐ ܗܢܐ ܬܐܡܪܘܢ ܕܐܫܬܩܠ ܘܦܠ ܒܝܡܐ ܬܗܘܐ ܀
22And all things, whatsoever ye shall ask in prayer, believing, ye shall receive.
22ܘܟܠ ܡܕܡ ܕܬܫܐܠܘܢ ܒܨܠܘܬܐ ܘܬܗܝܡܢܘܢ ܬܤܒܘܢ ܀
23And when he was come into the temple, the chief priests and the elders of the people came unto him as he was teaching, and said, By what authority doest thou these things? and who gave thee this authority?
23ܘܟܕ ܐܬܐ ܝܫܘܥ ܠܗܝܟܠܐ ܩܪܒܘ ܠܗ ܪܒܝ ܟܗܢܐ ܘܩܫܝܫܐ ܕܥܡܐ ܟܕ ܡܠܦ ܘܐܡܪܝܢ ܠܗ ܒܐܝܢܐ ܫܘܠܛܢ ܗܠܝܢ ܥܒܕ ܐܢܬ ܘܡܢܘ ܝܗܒ ܠܟ ܫܘܠܛܢܐ ܗܢܐ ܀
24And Jesus answered and said unto them, I also will ask you one question, which if ye tell me, I likewise will tell you by what authority I do these things.
24ܥܢܐ ܝܫܘܥ ܘܐܡܪ ܠܗܘܢ ܐܫܐܠܟܘܢ ܐܦ ܐܢܐ ܡܠܬܐ ܚܕܐ ܘܐܢ ܬܐܡܪܘܢ ܠܝ ܘܐܦ ܐܢܐ ܐܡܪ ܐܢܐ ܠܟܘܢ ܒܐܝܢܐ ܫܘܠܛܢܐ ܗܠܝܢ ܥܒܕ ܐܢܐ ܀
25The baptism of John, whence was it? from heaven or from men? And they reasoned with themselves, saying, If we shall say, From heaven; he will say unto us, Why then did ye not believe him?
25ܡܥܡܘܕܝܬܗ ܕܝܘܚܢܢ ܐܝܡܟܐ ܐܝܬܝܗ ܡܢ ܫܡܝܐ ܗܝ ܐܘ ܡܢ ܒܢܝܢܫܐ ܗܢܘܢ ܕܝܢ ܡܬܪܥܝܢ ܗܘܘ ܒܢܦܫܗܘܢ ܘܐܡܪܝܢ ܕܐܢ ܢܐܡܪ ܡܢ ܫܡܝܐ ܐܡܪ ܠܢ ܘܥܠ ܡܢܐ ܠܐ ܗܝܡܢܬܘܢܝܗܝ ܀
26But if we shall say, From men; we fear the multitude; for all hold John as a prophet.
26ܘܕܢܐܡܪ ܡܢ ܒܢܝܢܫܐ ܕܚܠܝܢ ܐܢܚܢܢ ܡܢ ܟܢܫܐ ܟܠܗܘܢ ܓܝܪ ܐܝܟ ܢܒܝܐ ܐܚܝܕܝܢ ܗܘܘ ܠܗ ܠܝܘܚܢܢ ܀
27And they answered Jesus, and said, We know not. He also said unto them, Neither tell I you by what authority I do these things.
27ܥܢܘ ܘܐܡܪܝܢ ܠܗ ܠܐ ܝܕܥܝܢܢ ܐܡܪ ܠܗܘܢ ܝܫܘܥ ܐܦ ܠܐ ܐܢܐ ܐܡܪ ܐܢܐ ܠܟܘܢ ܒܐܝܢܐ ܫܘܠܛܢܐ ܗܠܝܢ ܥܒܕ ܐܢܐ ܀
28But what think ye? A man had two sons; and he came to the first, and said, Son, go work to-day in the vineyard.
28ܡܢܐ ܕܝܢ ܡܬܚܙܐ ܠܟܘܢ ܓܒܪܐ ܚܕ ܐܝܬ ܗܘܘ ܠܗ ܒܢܝܐ ܬܪܝܢ ܘܩܪܒ ܠܘܬ ܩܕܡܝܐ ܘܐܡܪ ܠܗ ܒܪܝ ܙܠ ܝܘܡܢܐ ܦܠܘܚ ܒܟܪܡܐ ܀
29And he answered and said, I will not: but afterward he repented himself, and went.
29ܗܘ ܕܝܢ ܥܢܐ ܘܐܡܪ ܠܐ ܨܒܐ ܐܢܐ ܒܚܪܬܐ ܕܝܢ ܐܬܬܘܝ ܘܐܙܠ ܀
30And he came to the second, and said likewise. And he answered and said, I [go], sir: and went not.
30ܘܩܪܒ ܠܘܬ ܐܚܪܢܐ ܘܐܡܪ ܠܗ ܗܟܘܬ ܗܘ ܕܝܢ ܥܢܐ ܘܐܡܪ ܐܢܐ ܡܪܝ ܘܠܐ ܐܙܠ ܀
31Which of the two did the will of his father? They say, The first. Jesus saith unto them, Verily I say unto you, that the publicans and the harlots go into the kingdom of God before you.
31ܡܢܘ ܡܢ ܗܠܝܢ ܬܪܝܗܘܢ ܥܒܕ ܨܒܝܢܐ ܕܐܒܘܗܝ ܐܡܪܝܢ ܠܗ ܗܘ ܩܕܡܝܐ ܐܡܪ ܠܗܘܢ ܝܫܘܥ ܐܡܝܢ ܐܡܪ ܐܢܐ ܠܟܘܢ ܕܡܟܤܐ ܘܙܢܝܬܐ ܩܕܡܝܢ ܠܟܘܢ ܠܡܠܟܘܬܐ ܕܐܠܗܐ ܀
32For John came unto you in the way of righteousness, and ye believed him not; but the publicans and the harlots believed him: and ye, when ye saw it, did not even repent yourselves afterward, that ye might believe him.
32ܐܬܐ ܓܝܪ ܠܘܬܟܘܢ ܝܘܚܢܢ ܒܐܘܪܚܐ ܕܟܐܢܘܬܐ ܘܠܐ ܗܝܡܢܬܘܢܝܗܝ ܡܟܤܐ ܕܝܢ ܘܙܢܝܬܐ ܗܝܡܢܘܗܝ ܐܢܬܘܢ ܕܝܢ ܐܦ ܠܐ ܟܕ ܚܙܝܬܘܢ ܐܬܬܘܝܬܘܢ ܒܚܪܬܐ ܕܬܗܝܡܢܘܢ ܒܗ ܀
33Hear another parable: There was a man that was a householder, who planted a vineyard, and set a hedge about it, and digged a winepress in it, and built a tower, and let it out to husbandmen, and went into another country.
33ܫܡܥܘ ܐܚܪܢܐ ܡܬܠܐ ܓܒܪܐ ܚܕ ܐܝܬ ܗܘܐ ܡܪܐ ܒܝܬܐ ܘܢܨܒ ܟܪܡܐ ܘܐܚܕܪܗ ܤܝܓܐ ܘܚܦܪ ܒܗ ܡܥܨܪܬܐ ܘܒܢܐ ܒܗ ܡܓܕܠܐ ܘܐܘܚܕܗ ܠܦܠܚܐ ܘܚܙܩ ܀
34And when the season of the fruits drew near, he sent his servants to the husbandmen, to receive his fruits.
34ܟܕ ܕܝܢ ܡܛܐ ܙܒܢܐ ܕܦܐܪܐ ܫܕܪ ܠܥܒܕܘܗܝ ܠܘܬ ܦܠܚܐ ܕܢܫܕܪܘܢ ܠܗ ܡܢ ܦܐܪܐ ܕܟܪܡܗ ܀
35And the husbandmen took his servants, and beat one, and killed another, and stoned another.
35ܘܐܚܕܘ ܦܠܚܐ ܠܥܒܕܘܗܝ ܘܐܝܬ ܕܡܚܐܘܗܝ ܘܐܝܬ ܕܪܓܡܘܗܝ ܘܐܝܬ ܕܩܛܠܘܗܝ ܀
36Again, he sent other servants more than the first: and they did unto them in like manner.
36ܘܬܘܒ ܫܕܪ ܐܚܪܢܐ ܥܒܕܐ ܕܤܓܝܐܝܢ ܡܢ ܩܕܡܝܐ ܘܗܟܘܬ ܥܒܕܘ ܠܗܘܢ ܀
37But afterward he sent unto them his son, saying, They will reverence my son.
37ܐܚܪܝܬ ܕܝܢ ܫܕܪ ܠܘܬܗܘܢ ܠܒܪܗ ܟܕ ܐܡܪ ܟܒܪ ܢܒܗܬܘܢ ܡܢ ܒܪܝ ܀
38But the husbandmen, when they saw the son, said among themselves, This is the heir; come, let us kill him, and take his inheritance.
38ܦܠܚܐ ܕܝܢ ܟܕ ܚܙܐܘܗܝ ܠܒܪܐ ܐܡܪܘ ܒܝܢܬܗܘܢ ܗܢܘ ܝܪܬܐ ܬܘ ܢܩܛܠܝܘܗܝ ܘܢܐܚܘܕ ܝܪܬܘܬܗ ܀
39And they took him, and cast him forth out of the vineyard, and killed him.
39ܘܐܚܕܘ ܐܦܩܘܗܝ ܠܒܪ ܡܢ ܟܪܡܐ ܘܩܛܠܘܗܝ ܀
40When therefore the lord of the vineyard shall come, what will he do unto those husbandmen?
40ܡܐ ܕܐܬܐ ܗܟܝܠ ܡܪܗ ܕܟܪܡܐ ܡܢܐ ܢܥܒܕ ܠܦܠܚܐ ܗܢܘܢ ܀
41They say unto him, He will miserably destroy those miserable men, and will let out the vineyard unto other husbandmen, who shall render him the fruits in their seasons.
41ܐܡܪܝܢ ܠܗ ܕܒܝܫ ܒܝܫ ܢܘܒܕ ܐܢܘܢ ܘܟܪܡܐ ܢܘܚܕ ܠܐܚܪܢܐ ܦܠܚܐ ܐܝܠܝܢ ܕܝܗܒܝܢ ܠܗ ܦܐܪܐ ܒܙܒܢܗܘܢ ܀
42Jesus saith unto them, Did ye never read in the scriptures, The stone which the builders rejected, The same was made the head of the corner; This was from the Lord, And it is marvelous in our eyes?
42ܐܡܪ ܠܗܘܢ ܝܫܘܥ ܠܐ ܡܡܬܘܡ ܩܪܝܬܘܢ ܒܟܬܒܐ ܕܟܐܦܐ ܕܐܤܠܝܘ ܒܢܝܐ ܗܝ ܗܘܬ ܠܪܫܐ ܕܙܘܝܬܐ ܡܢ ܠܘܬ ܡܪܝܐ ܗܘܬ ܗܕܐ ܘܐܝܬܝܗ ܬܕܡܘܪܬܐ ܒܥܝܢܝܢ ܀
43Therefore say I unto you, The kingdom of God shall be taken away from you, and shall be given to a nation bringing forth the fruits thereof.
43ܡܛܠ ܗܢܐ ܐܡܪ ܐܢܐ ܠܟܘܢ ܕܬܫܬܩܠ ܡܢܟܘܢ ܡܠܟܘܬܐ ܕܐܠܗܐ ܘܬܬܝܗܒ ܠܥܡܐ ܕܥܒܕ ܦܐܪܐ ܀
44And he that falleth on this stone shall be broken to pieces: but on whomsoever it shall fall, it will scatter him as dust.
44ܘܡܢ ܕܢܦܠ ܥܠ ܟܐܦܐ ܗܕܐ ܢܬܪܥܥ ܘܟܠ ܡܢ ܕܗܝ ܬܦܠ ܥܠܘܗܝ ܬܕܪܝܘܗܝ ܀
45And when the chief priests and the Pharisees heard his parables, they perceived that he spake of them.
45ܘܟܕ ܫܡܥܘ ܪܒܝ ܟܗܢܐ ܘܦܪܝܫܐ ܡܬܠܘܗܝ ܝܕܥܘ ܕܥܠܝܗܘܢ ܐܡܪ ܀ 46 ܘܒܥܘ ܠܡܐܚܕܗ ܘܕܚܠܘ ܡܢ ܟܢܫܐ ܡܛܠ ܕܐܝܟ ܕܠܢܒܝܐ ܐܚܝܕܝܢ ܗܘܘ ܠܗ ܀
46And when they sought to lay hold on him, they feared the multitudes, because they took him for a prophet.
