1On that day Jesus went out of the house, and sat by the seaside.
1Ass-nni kan, Sidna Ɛisa yeffeɣ-ed seg wexxam, iṛuḥ ad iqqim rrif n lebḥeṛ,
2Great multitudes gathered to him, so that he entered into a boat, and sat, and all the multitude stood on the beach.
2d izumal n lɣaci i s-d-izzin, dɣa yuli ɣer teflukt, yeqqim. LLɣaci ibedd ɣef rrif n lebḥeṛ,
3He spoke to them many things in parables, saying, “Behold, a farmer went out to sow.
3nețța yebda isselmad-iten s lemtul iqqaṛ-asen : Yiwen ufellaḥ yeffeɣ ad izreɛ.
4 As he sowed, some seeds fell by the roadside, and the birds came and devoured them.
4Mi gzerreɛ, ɣlin-as kra n iɛeqqayen rrif n webrid, usan-d igṭaṭ ( ifṛax igenni ) ččan-ten.
5 Others fell on rocky ground, where they didn’t have much soil, and immediately they sprang up, because they had no depth of earth.
5Kra iɛeqqayen nniḍen ɣlin deg wakal yeččuṛen d izṛa, mɣin-d s lemɣawla axaṭer ulac aṭas n wakal.
6 When the sun had risen, they were scorched. Because they had no root, they withered away.
6Mi gebda wezɣal, yezlef imɣan nni dɣa qquṛen, axaṭer ur sɛin ara izuṛan lqayen.
7 Others fell among thorns. The thorns grew up and choked them.
7Kra iɛeqqayen nniḍen ɣlin ger isennanen. Isennanen-nni gman dɣa ɣummen-ten.
8 Others fell on good soil, and yielded fruit: some one hundred times as much, some sixty, and some thirty.
8Meɛna kra iɛeqqayen ɣlin deg wakal yelhan : fkan-d tigedrin, ta tefka-d meyya iɛeqqayen, ta sețțin, tayeḍ tlatin.
9 He who has ears to hear, let him hear.”
9Win yesɛan imeẓẓuɣen isel-ed !
10The disciples came, and said to him, “Why do you speak to them in parables?”
10Inelmaden-is qeṛṛben ɣuṛ-es, nnan-as : Acimi i sen-theddṛeḍ s lemtul ?
11He answered them, “To you it is given to know the mysteries of the Kingdom of Heaven, but it is not given to them.
11Yerra-yasen : Kunwi yețțunefk-awen-d aț țissinem lbaḍna n tgelda igenwan, ma d wiyaḍ, ur sen-d-ițțunefk ara.
12 For whoever has, to him will be given, and he will have abundance, but whoever doesn’t have, from him will be taken away even that which he has.
12Axaṭer win yesɛan a s-d-nernu alamma yella di tawant, ma d win ur nesɛi ara, a s-nekkes ula d ayen yesɛa.
13 Therefore I speak to them in parables, because seeing they don’t see, and hearing, they don’t hear, neither do they understand.
13Daymi i sen-țmeslayeɣ s lemtul, axaṭer țmuqulen ur țwalin, țḥessisen ur sellen, ur fehhmen.
14 In them the prophecy of Isaiah is fulfilled, which says, ‘By hearing you will hear, and will in no way understand; Seeing you will see, and will in no way perceive:
14S wakka, yedṛa-d yid-sen wayen i d-ixebbeṛ fell-asen nnbi Iceɛya : Aț-țsellem s imeẓẓuɣen-nwen, ur tfehhmem ara, aț-țmuqulem s wallen-nwen, ur tețwalim ara,
15 for this people’s heart has grown callous, their ears are dull of hearing, they have closed their eyes; or else perhaps they might perceive with their eyes, hear with their ears, understand with their heart, and should turn again; and I would heal them.’ Isaiah 6:9-10
15Imi agdud-agi qquṛen wulawen-nsen, qeflen imeẓẓuɣen- sen, qqnen allen-nsen, iwakken ur țwalin, ur sellen ; sseɣṛen ulawen nsen, ugin ad fehmen, axaṭer lemmer tuben, uɣalen-d ɣer webrid, tili sseḥlaɣ ten.
16 “But blessed are your eyes, for they see; and your ears, for they hear.
16Ma d kunwi amarezg-nwen ! Axaṭer allen-nwen țwalint, imeẓẓuɣen nwen sellen.
17 For most certainly I tell you that many prophets and righteous men desired to see the things which you see, and didn’t see them; and to hear the things which you hear, and didn’t hear them.
17Aql-i nniɣ-awen tideț, aṭas si lenbiya akk-d imdanen iḥeqqiyen i gebɣan ad walin ayen tețwalim, ur t-walan, ad slen ayen tsellem, ur t-slin.
18 “Hear, then, the parable of the farmer.
18A wen-d-iniɣ lmeɛna n lemtel n win izerrɛen :
19 When anyone hears the word of the Kingdom, and doesn’t understand it, the evil one comes, and snatches away that which has been sown in his heart. This is what was sown by the roadside.
19m'ara isel wemdan i wawal yeɛnan tageldit n igenwan, ur t-yefhim ara, ițemcabi ɣer yiri n webrid i ɣer tɣelli zzerriɛa ; d Cciṭan i d-ițasen ad iqleɛ ayen izerɛen deg ul-is.
20 What was sown on the rocky places, this is he who hears the word, and immediately with joy receives it;
20Wayeḍ ițemcabi ɣer wakal-nni yeččuṛen d izṛa anda teɣli zzerriɛa. M'ara isel i wawal n Ṛebbi, iqebbel-it s lfeṛḥ,
21 yet he has no root in himself, but endures for a while. When oppression or persecution arises because of the word, immediately he stumbles.
21meɛna ur t-yețțaǧǧa ara ad iger izuṛan deg-s, ur yețțaṭṭaf ara. MM'ara d-tass lmeḥna neɣ aqehheṛ ɣef ddemma n wawal n Ṛebbi, ad yeǧǧ imiren kan liman-is.
22 What was sown among the thorns, this is he who hears the word, but the cares of this age and the deceitfulness of riches choke the word, and he becomes unfruitful.
22Wayeḍ daɣen ițemcabi ɣer zzerriɛa yeɣlin ger isennanen. M'ara isel i wawal n Ṛebbi, iɣeblan n ddunit d ṭṭmeɛ n rrbeḥ țɣummun awal-nni, dɣa ur d-ițțak ara lfakya.
23 What was sown on the good ground, this is he who hears the word, and understands it, who most certainly bears fruit, and brings forth, some one hundred times as much, some sixty, and some thirty.”
23Wayeḍ icuba daɣen ɣer zzerriɛa yeɣlin deg wakal yelhan, m'ara isel i wawal n Ṛebbi, ifehhem-it, daymi i d-ițțak lfakya ! YYal aɛeqqa ițțak-ed : wa tlatin, wa sețțin, wa meyya n tɛeqqayin.
24He set another parable before them, saying, “The Kingdom of Heaven is like a man who sowed good seed in his field,
24Sidna Ɛisa yefka-yasen-d lemtel nniḍen : Tagelda n igenwan tcuba ɣer yiwen wergaz i gzerɛen irden deg iger-is.
25 but while people slept, his enemy came and sowed darnel weeds darnel is a weed grass (probably bearded darnel or lolium temulentum) that looks very much like wheat until it is mature, when the difference becomes very apparent. also among the wheat, and went away.
25Yiwen yiḍ mi ṭṭsen akk medden, yusa-d weɛdaw-is izreɛ aẓekkun ger yirden, imiren iṛuḥ.
26 But when the blade sprang up and brought forth fruit, then the darnel weeds appeared also.
26Mi d-gman yirden-nni fkan-d tigedrin, aẓekkun-nni ula d nețța igma-d.
27 The servants of the householder came and said to him, ‘Sir, didn’t you sow good seed in your field? Where did this darnel come from?’
27Iqeddacen n bab n iger-nni, usan-d ɣuṛ-es nnan-as : A Sidi, eɛni mačči d irden i tzerɛeḍ deg iger-ik ? Ansi i d-ikka ihi uẓekkun-agi ?
28 “He said to them, ‘An enemy has done this.’ “The servants asked him, ‘Do you want us to go and gather them up?’
28Yerra-yasen : D yiwen weɛdaw i gxedmen akka ! IIqeddacen-nni nnan-as : Ihi tebɣiḍ a nṛuḥ a neqleɛ aẓekkun-agi ?
29 “But he said, ‘No, lest perhaps while you gather up the darnel weeds, you root up the wheat with them.
29Yerra-yasen : Xaṭi ! Axaṭer m'ara tekksem aẓekkun, tzemrem a d-teglum s yirden.
30 Let both grow together until the harvest, and in the harvest time I will tell the reapers, “First, gather up the darnel weeds, and bind them in bundles to burn them; but gather the wheat into my barn.”’”
30Anfet-asen ad gmun di sin alamma ț-țamegra. Ass-nni, a sen iniɣ i wid imeggren : qelɛet-ed uqbel aẓekkun, cuddet-eț ț-țadliwin iwakken a tent-nesseṛɣ ma d irden jemɛet țen-id ɣer ikuffan-iw.
31He set another parable before them, saying, “The Kingdom of Heaven is like a grain of mustard seed, which a man took, and sowed in his field;
31Sidna Ɛisa yefka-yasen-d lemtel nniḍen : Tagelda n igenwan tcuba ɣer yiwen uɛeqqa n uxerḍel i d-iddem yiwen wergaz iwakken a t-izreɛ deg iger-is.
32 which indeed is smaller than all seeds. But when it is grown, it is greater than the herbs, and becomes a tree, so that the birds of the air come and lodge in its branches.”
32Aɛeqqa-yagi d nețța i d amecṭuḥ meṛṛa ger zzerriɛat yellan, lameɛna mi gețwazreɛ, igemmu yețțali alamma yekka-d sennig akk yemɣan n tebḥirt, yeggar-ed ifurkawen d imeqqranen, ula d ifṛax n igenni , bennun leɛcuc-nsen s ufella-s.
33He spoke another parable to them. “The Kingdom of Heaven is like yeast, which a woman took, and hid in three measures literally, three sata. 3 sata is about 39 litres or a bit more than a bushel of meal, until it was all leavened.”
33Sidna Ɛisa yenna-yasen-d lemtel nniḍen : Tagelda n igenwan tețțemcabi ɣer temtunt ( yiɣes n temtunt ) ara d-teddem tmeṭṭut a t-tsexleḍ i tlata lkilat n uwren, s wakka arukti-nni meṛṛa ad yali.
34Jesus spoke all these things in parables to the multitudes; and without a parable, he didn’t speak to them,
34Sidna Ɛisa ițmeslay-ed i lɣaci anagar s lemtul.
35that it might be fulfilled which was spoken through the prophet, saying, “I will open my mouth in parables; I will utter things hidden from the foundation of the world.” Psalm 78:2
35Ițmeslay-asen-d akka iwakken ad yedṛu wayen i d-nnan lenbiya : A sen-mmeslayeɣ s lemtul, a sen-beccṛeɣ tiɣawsiwin yeffren seg wasmi i d-texleq ddunit. cc
36Then Jesus sent the multitudes away, and went into the house. His disciples came to him, saying, “Explain to us the parable of the darnel weeds of the field.”
36Mi gekfa Sidna Ɛisa ameslay, lɣaci ṛuḥen, nețța ikcem ɣer wexxam. Inelmaden-is qeṛṛben ɣuṛ-es nnan-as : Ssefru-yaɣ-d lemtel n uẓekkun deg iger.
37He answered them, “He who sows the good seed is the Son of Man,
37Yerra-yasen-d : Win izerrɛen irden d Mmi-s n bunadem ;
38 the field is the world; and the good seed, these are the children of the Kingdom; and the darnel weeds are the children of the evil one.
38iger, d ddunit ; irden, d wid ițekkan di tgelda n igenwan ; ma d aẓekkun, d widak ițekkan d Cciṭan ;
39 The enemy who sowed them is the devil. The harvest is the end of the age, and the reapers are angels.
39aɛdaw i gzerrɛen aẓekkun, d Cciṭan ; tamegra , ț-țaggara nddunit ; ma d wid imeggren, d lmalayekkat.
40 As therefore the darnel weeds are gathered up and burned with fire; so will it be at the end of this age.
40Akken ara qellɛen aẓekkun ṭeggiṛen-t ɣer tmes, ara tedṛu di taggara n ddunit.
41 The Son of Man will send out his angels, and they will gather out of his Kingdom all things that cause stumbling, and those who do iniquity,
41Mmi-s n bunadem a d-iceggeɛ lmalayekkat-is, ad ssufɣen si tgelda-s wid akk yesseɣlayen wiyaḍ di ddnub akk-d wid ixeddmen cceṛ,
42 and will cast them into the furnace of fire. There will be weeping and the gnashing of teeth.
42dɣa a ten-ḍeggṛen ɣer tmes anda ara yilin imeṭṭawen d nndama tameqqrant ;
43 Then the righteous will shine forth like the sun in the Kingdom of their Father. He who has ears to hear, let him hear.

44 “Again, the Kingdom of Heaven is like a treasure hidden in the field, which a man found, and hid. In his joy, he goes and sells all that he has, and buys that field.
44Tagelda n igenwan tețțemcabi ɣer ugerruj yeffren deg yiwen n yiger. Yiwen wergaz yufa-t, yuɣal iffer-it. Si lfeṛḥ-nni i gefṛeḥ, iṛuḥ izzenz ayen akk yesɛa iwakken ad yaɣ iger-nni.
45 “Again, the Kingdom of Heaven is like a man who is a merchant seeking fine pearls,
45Tagelda n igenwan tețțemcabi daɣen ɣer yiwen umetjaṛ ițqelliben tiɛeqcin ifazen.
46 who having found one pearl of great price, he went and sold all that he had, and bought it.
46Mi gufa yiwet ifazen ɣef tiyaḍ, iṛuḥ izzenz ayen akk yesɛa, yuɣal-ed yuɣ-iț.
47 “Again, the Kingdom of Heaven is like a dragnet, that was cast into the sea, and gathered some fish of every kind,
47Tagelda n igenwan tețțemcabi daɣen ɣer ucebbak ițwadeggṛen ɣer lebḥeṛ, iwakken a d-iṭṭef iselman ( lḥut ) n mkul ṣṣenf.
48 which, when it was filled, they drew up on the beach. They sat down, and gathered the good into containers, but the bad they threw away.

49 So will it be in the end of the world. The angels will come forth, and separate the wicked from among the righteous,
49Akka ara tedṛu di taggara n ddunit : lmalayekkat a d-asent a d ddment imcumen si ger iḥeqqiyen,
50 and will cast them into the furnace of fire. There will be the weeping and the gnashing of teeth.”

51Jesus said to them, “Have you understood all these things?” They answered him, “Yes, Lord.”
51Dɣa Sidna Ɛisa yenna-yasen : Tfehmem ayagi meṛṛa ? RRran-as : Anɛam a Sidi, nefhem !
52He said to them, “Therefore every scribe who has been made a disciple in the Kingdom of Heaven is like a man who is a householder, who brings out of his treasure new and old things.”
52Yerna-yasen : Ihi, yal amusnaw n ccariɛa ara ifehmen tagelda n igenwan, icuba ɣer bab n wexxam i d-ițekksen seg ugerruj-is tiɣawsiwin tijdidin, akk-d ț-țɣawsiwin tiqdimin.
53It happened that when Jesus had finished these parables, he departed from there.
53Mi d-yenna lemtul-agi, Sidna Ɛisa iṛuḥ syenna.
54Coming into his own country, he taught them in their synagogue, so that they were astonished, and said, “Where did this man get this wisdom, and these mighty works?
54Yerra ɣer taddart i deg ițțuṛebba. Isselmad di lǧameɛ nsen, lɣaci akk iḥedṛen wehmen, qqaṛen : Ansi i s-d-tekka tmusni-yagi akk d tezmert s wayes ixeddem lbeṛhanat agi ?

56Yessetma-s daɣen, mačči gar aneɣ i llant ? Ansi i s-d-ikka ihi wannect-agi ?
57They were offended by him. But Jesus said to them, “A prophet is not without honor, except in his own country, and in his own house.”

58He didn’t do many mighty works there because of their unbelief.
