¹Jesus answered and spoke again in parables to them, saying,

¹O Jesus dia duma pale andel paramichi ai phenel,

² “The Kingdom of Heaven is like a certain king, who made a marriage feast for his son,

²"E amperetsia le rhaioski si sar iek amperato kai kerdias abiav peske shaveske.

³ and sent out his servants to call those who were invited to the marriage feast, but they would not come.

³Tradias peske slugen te akharen kodolen kai sas akharde ka abiav, numa won chi mangle te aven.

⁴ Again he sent out other servants, saying, ‘Tell those who are invited, “Behold, I have prepared my dinner. My cattle and my fatlings are killed, and all things are ready. Come to the marriage feast!”’

⁴"Magdata tradias avre slugen, te mothon kodolenge kai sas akharde, "Eta, getosardem o xabe, murhe guruv ai le vitseluria sa mudarde, swako fielo gata. Aven ka abiav!" "

⁵ But they made light of it, and went their ways, one to his own farm, another to his merchandise,

⁵Numa chi thode sama, ai gele peske drom, iek ka peski farma, aver ande peski buchi.

⁶ and the rest grabbed his servants, and treated them shamefully, and killed them.

⁶Ai le kolaver thode o vas pe leske slugi, marde mui lendar, darade le ai mudarde le.

⁷ When the king heard that, he was angry, and sent his armies, destroyed those murderers, and burned their city.

⁷"Kana o amperato ashundias, xolialo, tradias peske ketani; ai kerdias xaiimaske anda kodola kai mudarde, ai dias iag lengo foro.

⁸ “Then he said to his servants, ‘The wedding is ready, but those who were invited weren’t worthy.

⁸Antunchi phendias peske slugenge, o abiav gata numa kodola kai sas akharde, chi molas te aven akharde."

⁹ Go therefore to the intersections of the highways, and as many as you may find, invite to the marriage feast.’

⁹Anda kodia zhan pel bare vulitsi, ai sode arakhena kotse, akharen le ka o abiav.

¹⁰ Those servants went out into the highways, and gathered together as many as they found, both bad and good. The wedding was filled with guests.

¹⁰"Kodola slugi gele pel vulitsi ai chide andek than sa kai arakhle, vi nasul ai vi lashe; ai o kher le abiavesko sas pherdo.

¹¹ But when the king came in to see the guests, he saw there a man who didn’t have on wedding clothing,

¹¹Kana o amperato avilo te dikhel le gosten, dikhlia kotse iek manush kai sas xuriarado andel tsalia abiaveske.

¹² and he said to him, ‘Friend, how did you come in here not wearing wedding clothing?’ He was speechless.

¹²Ai phendias leske, "Vortako, Sar avilian andre katse bi tsalengo abiaveske?" Les nas so mothol.

¹³ Then the king said to the servants, ‘Bind him hand and foot, take him away, and throw him into the outer darkness; there is where the weeping and grinding of teeth will be.’

¹³Antunchi o amperato phendias le slugenge, "Phanden leske vas ai leske punrhe, ai shuden les avri ando tuniariko. Kotse kai rovena ai chiden dandendar."

¹⁴ For many are called, but few chosen.”

¹⁴"Ke but si akharde, numa xantsi si halome."

¹⁵Then the Pharisees went and took counsel how they might entrap him in his talk.

¹⁵Antunchi le Farizeanuria gele ai dinepe duma sar te astaren les ande lesko divano.

¹⁶They 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 aren’t partial to anyone.

¹⁶Trade leste peske disiplon ai une Herodians, won phende , "Gazda, zhanas ke chachimasa san ai sikaves o chachimos pa Del bi te daras vari kastar, ke chi thos partia kanikaske.

¹⁷Tell us therefore, what do you think? Is it lawful to pay taxes to Caesar, or not?”

¹⁷Phen amenge antunchi, "So gindis? Si amenge slobodo vai nai, te pochinas taksa ka Caesar?"

¹⁸But Jesus perceived their wickedness, and said, “Why do you test me, you hypocrites?

¹⁸Numa O Jesus haliardias lenge nasul ginduria, ai phendias, "Sostar tume zumaven ma? Tume kai ankerdion so chi san?

¹⁹ Show me the tax money.” They brought to him a denarius.

¹⁹Sikaven mange le love so sa pochinen e taksa." Andine leske iek pena,

²⁰He asked them, “Whose is this image and inscription?”

²⁰ai phendias lenge, "Kaski fatsa ai ramomos si kado?"

²¹They 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.”

²¹Won phende leske, "O Caesar" Antunchi O Jesus phendias lenge, "Den ka Caesar so si lesko, ai den ka Del so si le Devlesko."

²²When they heard it, they marveled, and left him, and went away.

²²Kana ashunde, chudisaile. Mekle les ai geletar.

²³On that day Sadducees (those who say that there is no resurrection) came to him. They asked him,

²³Sa kodo dies uni Saduseanuria kai mothon ke nai traio pala e martia avile leste ai phushle les,

²⁴saying, “Teacher, Moses said, ‘If a man dies, having no children, his brother shall marry his wife, and raise up seed for his brother.’

²⁴"Gazda, o Moses phendias, 'Te merela iek manush ai nas les glate, lesko phral trobul te lel leska rhomni, te vazdel familia peske phralesle.'

²⁵Now there were with us seven brothers. The first married and died, and having no seed left his wife to his brother.

²⁵Sas mashkar amende efta phral. O pervo ansurisailo ai mulo, ai ke nas les glate, meklia peska rhomnia peske phraleske.

²⁶In the same way, the second also, and the third, to the seventh.

²⁶Sa kadia o duito, ai o trito zhi ka o eftato.

²⁷After them all, the woman died.

²⁷Kana avela te zhuvindin le mule te zhan ando rhaio, saveski andal efta phral avela e rhomni ke savorhenge sas?"

²⁸In the resurrection therefore, whose wife will she be of the seven? For they all had her.”

²⁹O Jesus phendias lenge, "Shubin tume zurales! Ke tume chi haliaren E Vorba le Devleski , ai chi e putiera le Devleski.

²⁹But Jesus answered them, “You are mistaken, not knowing the Scriptures, nor the power of God.

³⁰Ke kana avela te zhuvindin le mule te zhan ando rhaio, le mursh chi lena rhomni ai le zhuvlia chi lena rhom, numa avena sar le angeluria le Devleske kai si ando rhaio.

³⁰ For in the resurrection they neither marry, nor are given in marriage, but are like God’s angels in heaven.

³¹Numa anda kodia kai zhuvindin le mule te zhan ando rhaio, chi jindian tume so sas phendo tumenge katar O Del, kana phendias.

³¹ But concerning the resurrection of the dead, haven’t you read that which was spoken to you by God, saying,

³²"Me sim O Del le Abramosko, O Del le Isakosko ai O Del le Jacovosko," O Del nai O Del le mulengo, numa le zhuvindengo."

³² ‘I am the God of Abraham, and the God of Isaac, and the God of Jacob?’ Exodus 3:6 God is not the God of the dead, but of the living.”

³³Kana le naroduria ashunde kado divano, chudisaile katar lesko sikaimos.

³³When the multitudes heard it, they were astonished at his teaching.

³⁴Numa kana le Farizeanuria ashunde ke phandadias o mui le Saduseanongo, chidinisaile andek than,

³⁴But the Pharisees, when they heard that he had silenced the Sadducees, gathered themselves together.

³⁵ai iek anda lende, ablakato, phushlias les ek divano te zumavel les.

³⁵One of them, a lawyer, asked him a question, testing him.

³⁶"Gazda, Savo si o mai baro andal zakonuria?"

³⁶“Teacher, which is the greatest commandment in the law?”

³⁷O Jesus phendias leske, "Te avel tuke drago O Del sa che ilesa, sa che duxosa, ai sa cho gojasa." Kado si o pervo ai o mai baro andal zakonuria.

³⁷Jesus said to him, “‘You shall love the Lord your God with all your heart, with all your soul, and with all your mind.’ Deuteronomy 6:5

³⁹Ai o duito si saikfielo: "Te avel tuke drago le manush sode san tu tuke."

³⁸ This is the first and great commandment.

⁴⁰Ande kadala dui zakonuria ankerdiol sa e kris ai so phende le profeturia."

³⁹ A second likewise is this, ‘You shall love your neighbor as yourself.’ Leviticus 19:18

⁴¹Kana sas chidine andek than le Farizeanuria, O Jesus phushlia le divano,

⁴⁰ The whole law and the prophets depend on these two commandments.”

⁴²"So gindin tume pa Kristo? Kasko shav si wo?" Won phende leske, "O Shav le Davidosko."

⁴¹Now while the Pharisees were gathered together, Jesus asked them a question,

⁴³O Jesus phendias lenge, "Sar, antunchi o David kana sas O Swunto Duxo pe leste akhardias les, 'Gazda?'" phendias,

⁴²saying, “What do you think of the Christ? Whose son is he?” They said to him, “Of David.”

⁴⁴"O gazda phendia murhe gazdaske: 'Besh ka murho chacho vas, zhi pon thav che duzhmanon tela che punrhe.'"

⁴³He said to them, “How then does David in the Spirit call him Lord, saying,

⁴⁵Teala o David akharel les, "Gazda," Sar si lesko shav?

⁴⁴ ‘The Lord said to my Lord, sit on my right hand, until I make your enemies a footstool for your feet?’ Psalm 110:1

⁴⁶Chi iek nashti phendias leske iek vorba, ai pala kodia chi mai tromaile te phushen les kaver divanuria.

⁴⁵ “If then David calls him Lord, how is he his son?”

⁴⁶No one was able to answer him a word, neither did any man dare ask him any more questions from that day forth.
