¹And he began to say to them in parables, A man planted a vineyard, and made a fence round [it] and dug a wine-vat, and built a tower, and let it out to husbandmen, and left the country.

¹Antunchi O Jesus sichardia len le paramichensa, "Sas iek gazda kheresko kai thodia te bariol ek rez, ai thodia ek zido kruglom latar, ai kerdia ai lashardias iek than te strangon o struguro, vazdias iek wucho than te len sama kotsar. Ai dias e rez ka rabocha rezaria (po wundilepe manushende) ai gelotar andek dur them.

²And he sent a bondman to the husbandmen at the season, that he might receive from the husbandmen of the fruit of the vineyard.

²Kana pashili e vriama te chidenpe struguro, tradias ek sluga kal manush kai bariarenaspe leski rez, te len struguro kai avelas leske.

³But they took him, and beat [him], and sent [him] away empty.

³Ai astarde les, ai marde les, ai tradia les bi kanchesko.

⁴And again he sent to them another bondman; and [at] him they [threw stones, and] struck [him] on the head, and sent [him] away with insult.

⁴Magdata tradias lende aver sluges; ai shude bax pe leste, ai dukhade lesko shero, ai chinuisarde les, ai tradias les.

⁵And [again] he sent another, and him they killed; and many others, beating some and killing some.

⁵Magdata tradia aver sluges; ai mudarde les, ai tradias mai but, marde uni, ai mudarde uni.

⁶Having yet therefore one beloved son, he sent also him to them the last, saying, They will have respect for my son.

⁶Ta ando gor sas les ieke shaves, kai sas leske de sa drago, ai wo tradia lende peske shaves, ai phenelas, "Si te preznain murhe shaves."

⁷But those husbandmen said to one another, This is the heir: come, let us kill him and the inheritance will be ours.

⁷Numa le rezaria phende iek avreske, "O Shav le Manushesko kai bariarelaspe rez; Aven mudaras les, ai lias ame so si lesko."

⁸And they took him and killed him, and cast him forth out of the vineyard.

⁸Ai line les, ai mudarde les, ai gonisarde les avri andai rez.

⁹What therefore shall the lord of the vineyard do? He will come and destroy the husbandmen, and will give the vineyard to others.

⁹Kana o gazda le rezako avela, so kerela kodole manushenge? Avela ai mudarel kodole nasul manushen, ai dela e rez ka kaver.

¹⁰Have ye not even read this scripture, The stone which they that builded rejected, this has become the corner-stone:

¹⁰"Ai chi jindian ando ramomos? O bax kai le manush kai vazden o kher shude kerdilo o bax kai si sa e zor le kheresko.

¹¹this is of [the] Lord, and it is wonderful in our eyes?

¹¹O Del kerdias kadia, ai che mundro ande amare iakha!"

¹²And they sought to lay hold of him, and they feared the crowd; for they knew that he had spoken the parable of them. And they left him and went away.

¹²Mangenas te thon o vas pe leste, numa daraile katar o narodo: ke won zhanenas kai wo dia duma iek paramichi pala lende, mekle les, ai geletar.

¹³And they send to him certain of the Pharisees and of the Herodians, that they might catch him in speaking.

¹³Won trade leste uni andal Farizeanonge ai uni andal Herodianonge te astaren les ande lesko divano.

¹⁴And they come and say to him, Teacher, we know that thou art true, and carest not for any one; for thou regardest not men's person, but teachest the way of God with truth: Is it lawful to give tribute to Caesar or not?

¹⁴Ai kana aresle, phenenas leske "Gazda, zhanas ke chachimasa san, bi te daras vari kastar, ke chi thos partia kanikaske, numa sikaves o chachimos pa Del si amenge slobodo vai nai, te pochinas taksa ka Caesar?"

¹⁵Should we give, or should we not give? But he knowing their hypocrisy said unto them, Why tempt ye me? Bring me a denarius that I may see [it].

¹⁵"Pochinasa vai chi pochinasa?" Numa O Jesus haliardias lenge nasul ginduria, ai phendias lenge, "Sostar tume zumaven ma? Sikaven mange le love, te sai dikhav les.

¹⁶And they brought [it]. And he says to them, Whose [is] this image and superscription? And they said to him, Caesar's.

¹⁶Ai andine leske iek pena. Ai O Jesus phendia lenge, "Kaski fatsa ai ramomos si kado?" Ai phenen leske, "O Caesar."

¹⁷And Jesus answering said to them, Pay what is Caesar's to Caesar, and what is God's to God. And they wondered at him.

¹⁷Antunchi O Jesus phendias lenge, "Den ka Caesar so si lesko, ai den ka Del so si le Devlesko." Kana ashunde, chudisaile.

¹⁸And Sadducees come to him, that say there is no resurrection; and they demanded of him saying,

¹⁸Antunchi uni andal Saduseanonge avile ka Jesus, kai mothon ke nai traio pala e martia: ai phushle les, phenenas,

¹⁹Teacher, Moses wrote to us that if any one's brother die, and leave a wife behind, and leave no children, that his brother shall take his wife, and raise up seed to his brother.

¹⁹"Gazda, o Moses ramosardia amende, "Te merela vari kasko phral, ai sas ansurime, ai nas les glate, lesko phral trobul te lel leska rhomnia, ai te vazdel familia peske phraleske."

²⁰There were seven brethren; and the first took a wife, and dying did not leave seed;

²⁰Sar mashkar amende efta phral. O pervo ansurisailo, ai mulo, ai nas les glate.

²¹and the second took her and died, and neither did he leave seed; and the third likewise.

²¹Ai o duito ansurisailo leska rhomniasa, ai mulo, ai nas les glate ai sakadia o trito.

²²And the seven [took her and] did not leave seed. Last of all the woman also died.

²²Ai sakadia zhi ka o eftato, ai nas les glate: antunchi vi e zhuvli muli.

²³In the resurrection, when they shall rise again, of which of them shall she be wife, for the seven had her as wife?

²³Kana avela te zhuvindin le mule te zhan ando rhaio saveski andal efta phral avela e rhomnia?"

²⁴And Jesus answering said to them, Do not ye therefore err, not knowing the scriptures, nor the power of God?

²⁴O Jesus phendia lenge, "Shubin tume zurales! Ke tume chi haliaren E Vorba le Devleski, ai chi e putiera le Devleski."

²⁵For when they rise from among [the] dead they neither marry, nor are given in marriage, but are as angels [who are] in the heavens.

²⁵Ke kana zhuvindin le mule te zhan ando rhaio, le mursh chi lena rhomnia, ai le zhuvlia chi lena rhom, numa aven sar le angeluria le Devleske kai si ando rhaio.

²⁶But concerning the dead that they rise, have ye not read in the book of Moses, in [the section of] the bush, how God spoke to him, saying, *I* [am] the God of Abraham, and the God of Isaac, and the God of Jacob?

²⁶Numa anda kodia kai zhuvindin le mule te zhan ando rhaio, chi jindian ande klishka le Mosesoski, sar ande krenzha O Del phendia leske, phenelas, "Me sim O Del le Abramosko, ai O Del le Isakosko, ai O Del le Iakovosko?

²⁷He is not the God of [the] dead, but of [the] living. *Ye* therefore greatly err.

²⁷O Del nai O Del le mulengo, numa le zhuvindengo, shubin tume zurales."

²⁸And one of the scribes who had come up, and had heard them reasoning together, perceiving that he had answered them well, demanded of him, Which is [the] first commandment of all?

²⁸Ai iek andal Gramnoturia avilo, ai ashundia le Saduseanuria marenas mui pende, vo haliardia ke phandadias o mui le Saduseanonge, phushlia les, "Savo si o mai baro andal zakonuria?"

²⁹And Jesus answered him, [The] first commandment of all [is], Hear, Israel: the Lord our God is one Lord;

²⁹Ai O Jesus phendia leske, "O pervo andal zakonuria si, Ashun, O Israel; O Del, amaro Del, si ferdi iek Del.

³⁰and thou shalt love the Lord thy God with all thy heart, and with all thy soul, and with all thine understanding, and with all thy strength. This is [the] first commandment.

³⁰Te avel tuke drago O Del sa che ilesa, sa che duxosa, ai sa che gojasa, ai sa che zorasa: kado si o pervo zakono.

³¹And a second like it [is] this: Thou shalt love thy neighbour as thyself. There is not another commandment greater than these.

³¹Ai o duito si saikfielo, te avel tuke drago le manush sode san tu tuke. Nai aver zakono o mai baro sar kadala."

³²And the scribe said to him, Right, teacher; thou hast spoken according to [the] truth. For he is one, and there is none other besides him;

³²Ai o Gramnoto phendia leske, "Gazda, tu phendian o chachimos; ferdi iek Del si, ai nai aver, ferdi wo si.

³³and to love him with all the heart, and with all the intelligence, and with all the soul, and with all the strength, and to love one's neighbour as one's self, is more than all the burnt-offerings and sacrifices.

³³Ai te avel leske drago O Del sa peske ilesa, ai sa peske haliarimos, ai sa peske duxosa, ai sa peske zorasa, ai te avel leske drago le manush sar si les leske, mai mishto si te keren le dui zakonuria sar te thon zhegeni ai aver podarki po altari ande tampla pala e sakrifis."

³⁴And Jesus, seeing that he had answered intelligently, said to him, Thou art not far from the kingdom of God. And no one dared question him any more.

³⁴Ai kana O Jesus zhanelas ke wo haliardia, phendia leske, "Tu san nai dur katar e amperetsia le Devleski. Pala kodia khonik chi tromalas te phushel lestar vari so.

³⁵And Jesus answering said [as he was] teaching in the temple, How do the scribes say that the Christ is son of David?

³⁵Kana O Jesus sicharelas ande tampla, phushlia le, "Sar sai phenen le Gramnoturia ke O Kristo si O Shav le Davidosko?

³⁶[for] David himself said [speaking] in the Holy Spirit, The Lord said to my Lord, Sit on my right hand until I put thine enemies [as] footstool of thy feet.

³⁶O Swunto Duxo phendia ka David te phenel, "O gazda phendia murhe gazdaske, 'Besh ka murho chacho vas, zhi pon thav che duzhmanon tela che punrhe.'"

³⁷David himself [therefore] calls him Lord, and whence is he his son? And the mass of the people heard him gladly.

³⁷Teala o David akharel les Gazda, sar si lesko shav? Ai o baro narodo ashunelas les raduimasa.

³⁸And he said to them in his doctrine, Beware of the scribes, who like to walk about in long robes, and salutations in the marketplaces,

³⁸Sar O Jesus sicharelas le, phendia lenge, "Arakhen tume katar le Gramnoturia, ke lenge drago te phiravenpe andel raxamia lunzhi, ai mangen savorhe te den le lasho dies pel wulitsi.

³⁹and first seats in the synagogues, and first places at suppers;

³⁹Ai mangena le mai lashe skamina ande synagogue, ai te beshen ka shero le skafidiako kal pachiva.

⁴⁰who devour the houses of widows, and as a pretext make long prayers. These shall receive a severer judgment.

⁴⁰Ai won len khera le phivlia, ai te na dichol lenge nasulimos but, pe lende avela kris mai bari.

⁴¹And Jesus, having sat down opposite the treasury, saw how the crowd was casting money into the treasury; and many rich cast in much.

⁴¹O Jesus beshlo pasha o than kai le manush thon le love ande tamplo, ai dikhlia sar thonas penge love ande tamplo, ai but andal barvale dine but.

⁴²And a poor widow came and cast in two mites, which is a farthing.

⁴²Ai ek phivli chorhi avili ai tholas dui xarkune kotora, anklen iek sent.

⁴³And having called his disciples to [him] he said to them, Verily I say unto you, This poor widow has cast in more than all who have cast into the treasury:

⁴³Ai wo akhardia leste peske disiplon, ai phendia lenge, "Chachimasa, phenav tumenge, kacha chorhi phivli thodia mai but de sar savorhe:

⁴⁴for all have cast in of that which they had in abundance, but she of her destitution has cast in all that she had, the whole of her living.

⁴⁴Ke le barvale dine katar le but love kai sas le, numa woi dia so godi sas la te traiil."
