Matthew 21 (RHGC)

1Zeñtté ítara Jerúsalem or ḍáke Zaitun Faár ot asé de Betfégi edde Betániya farat foóñicce, hétunot Isá ye dui zon cárit ore difeṛáiye,As they approached Jerusalem and came to Bethphage on the Mount of Olives, Jesus sent out two disciples,

2ítara re endilla hoói, “Tuáñra muúm or fara gán ot zoo, héṛe zai mottor eggwá gadá baindá loot faiba, yíbar fúañti eggwá sóo yó faiba. Híin ore kúli Añr héṛe anógoi.saying to them, “Go into the village ahead of you, and at once you will find a donkey tied there, with her colt beside her. Untie them and bring them to Me.

3Zodi honókiye tuáñra re kessú hoó, tuáñra hoibá de, ‘Malik ottu iín ore lager.’ Tói yóggwa ye híin ore éhon difeṛáidibo.”If anyone questions you, tell him that the Lord needs them, and he will send them right away.”

4Híyan etollá óiye, zeéne nobir duara howá gíyl de yián fura ó:This took place to fulfill what was spoken through the prophet:

5“Síyon or zérfua re hoibá de, ‘Soó, tuáñr Baáñcca tuáñr hañse aiyér. Íba cída, Íba gadár uore gori, gadár sóor uore gori aiyér.’ ”“Say to the Daughter of Zion, ‘See, your King comes to you, gentle and riding on a donkey, on a colt, the foal of a donkey.’”

6Hé cárit ítara zai, Isá ye ítara re zendilla cíkaidiye héndilla goijjé.So the disciples went and did as Jesus had directed them.

7Ítara gadá edde gadár sóo wa re ainné, aar híin or uore nizor hoor ókkol bicáidiye, aar Isá híin or uore boiccé.They brought the donkey and the colt and laid their cloaks on them, and Jesus sat on them.

8Beec bák maincé nizor hoor ókkol rastar uore bicáidiye; argúne gas or ḍaggwa ókkol haṛi rastat bicáidiye.A massive crowd spread their cloaks on the road, while others cut branches from the trees and spread them on the road.

9Zedún manúc Isár age-age edde fisé-fisé zaat accíl, ítara guzori-guzori hoór de, “Dawud or Fua re Hósana! Mubarek Ubá zibá Mabud or name aiyér. Ebbe uore asman ot Allar taarif óuk!”The crowds that went ahead of Him and those that followed were shouting: “Hosanna to the Son of David!” “Blessed is He who comes in the name of the Lord!” “Hosanna in the highest!”

10Zeñtté Isá Jerúsalem ot góille, guñṛa cóor úrussul ot forigiyói; ítara hoór de, “Ibá hon?”When Jesus had entered Jerusalem, the whole city was stirred and asked, “Who is this?”

11Manúc cúne hoór de, “Ibá óilde Isá nobi, Galil or Nasárat cóor or.”The crowds replied, “This is Jesus, the prophet from Nazareth in Galilee.”

12Fore Isá baitul-mukaddos ot góille, aar zetará héṛe besa kina gorér ítara re loraidiyat doijje; aar baṭṭa báñgoyar ṭebíl edde hoitor besoyar boiṛóni ókkol natḍiyagarai diye.Then Jesus entered the temple courts and drove out all who were buying and selling there. He overturned the tables of the money changers and the seats of those selling doves.

13Íba ye ítara re hoór de, “Pak-kalam ot endilla asé, ‘Añr gór ore munazat or gór howá zaybo,’ montor tuáñra toh híyan ore ḍahañit or aḍḍa-hána banaifélaiyo.”And He declared to them, “It is written: ‘My house will be called a house of prayer.’ But you are making it ‘a den of robbers.’”

14Tarfore añdá ókkol edde leng ókkol baitul-mukaddos ot Isár hañse aiccé, aar Íba ye ítara re gom goijjé.The blind and the lame came to Him at the temple, and He healed them.

15Lekin ḍoóñr imam ókkole edde alem ókkole zeñtté Isá ye goijjé de taajuippa ham ókkol deikké, edde baitul-mukaddos or bútore fuain de guzori-guzori, “Dawud or Fua re Hósana!” hoór de fúinne, ítara ttu bicí guccá uṛígiyoi.But the chief priests and scribes were indignant when they saw the wonders He performed and the children shouting in the temple courts, “Hosanna to the Son of David!”

16Ítara Íba re hoór de, “Tuñí fúnor né fuain iíne kii hoór?” Isá ye ítara re hoór de, “Fúnir, tuáñra kí yián honódin nó foró, ‘Gura fuain dor edde dud or fuain dor muk ottu Tuñí Tuáñr taarif óibar entezam goijjó?’ ”“Do You hear what these children are saying?” they asked. “Yes,” Jesus answered. “Have you never read: ‘From the mouths of children and infants You have ordained praise’?”

17Baade Íba ye ítara re eri cóor or baáre Betániya farat giiyégoi, aar héṛe rait haṛaáil.Then He left them and went out of the city to Bethany, where He spent the night.

18Biínna sóore, Isá cóor ot waafes zaibarcót, Íba ttu búk laiggé.In the morning, as Jesus was returning to the city, He was hungry.

19Íba ye foñt ot eggwá ḍuñir-gas dekí, yíbar íñyot giiyé, montor yíbat fata bade ar kessú loot nó faa. Hétunot Íba ye gas swá re hoór de, “Ar honódin tor ttu gula no dórouk.” Tói éhon or bútore ḍuñir-gas swá fúaigiyoi.Seeing a fig tree by the road, He went up to it but found nothing on it except leaves. “May you never bear fruit again!” He said. And immediately the tree withered.

20Híyan dekí cárit tun taajup óigiyoi, aar hoór de, “Ḍuñir-gas swá eén toratori keén fúaigiyoi?”When the disciples saw this, they marveled and asked, “How did the fig tree wither so quickly?”

21Isá ye ítara re zuwabe hoór de, “Añí tuáñra re sóiyi hoóir, zodi tuáñra ttu iman táke aar cók no goró, tóoile tuáñra siríf ḍuñir-gas swár uore ziyán óiye híyan gorí faribá de no, bólke zodi e faár gwá re yó hoó, ‘Uṛí doijjat forgói,’ híyan óibo.“Truly I tell you,” Jesus replied, “if you have faith and do not doubt, not only will you do what was done to the fig tree, but even if you say to this mountain, ‘Be lifted up and thrown into the sea,’ it will happen.

22Tuáñra duat mazé iman or sáañte ziín magibá híin beggún faiba.”If you believe, you will receive whatever you ask for in prayer.”

23Isá ye baitul-mukaddos or uṛán ot góli baade taalim der de októt, Yohúdir ḍoóñr imam ókkol edde murubbi ókkol Íbar hañse aiccé, aar hoór de, “Tuñí ham iín kii adíkare gorór? Tuáñre e adíkar hone diiyé?”When Jesus returned to the temple courts and began to teach, the chief priests and elders of the people came up to Him. “By what authority are You doing these things?” they asked. “And who gave You this authority?”

24Isá ye ítara re zuwabe hoór de, “Añí yó tuáñra ttu ekkán súwal fusár goríyum. Tuáñra Añré híyan or zuwab dilé Añí yó tuáñra re hoiyúm Añí iín kii adíkare gorír deh.“I will also ask you one question,” Jesus replied, “and if you answer Me, I will tell you by what authority I am doing these things.

25Yaháya ye bápṭisma díbar adíkar hontú faáil? Asman ottu né náki insán ottu?” Ítara afós ot biyasana gorér de, “Zodi añára hoói ‘asman ottu,’ Íba ye añára re hoibó de, ‘Tóoile tuáñra íba re biccác kiyá nó goró?’What was the source of John’s baptism? Was it from heaven or from men?” They deliberated among themselves and said, “If we say, ‘From heaven,’ He will ask, ‘Why then did you not believe him?’

26Montor zodi hoói, ‘insán ottu,’ tóoile añára de maincóre ḍoorai, kiyólla-hoilé beggúne toh Yaháya re nobi mane.”But if we say, ‘From men,’ we are afraid of the people, for they all regard John as a prophet.”

27Hétolla ítara Isá re zuwabe hoór de, “Añára no zani.” Íba ye yó ítara re hoór de, “Tóoile Añí yó tuáñra re no hoiyúm Añí iín kii adíkare gorír.”So they answered, “We do not know.” And Jesus replied, “Neither will I tell you by what authority I am doing these things.

28“Tuáñrar buzá kii? Dóro, ezzon manúc ottu duwá fua asé, yóggwa ye fua ḍoóñr gwar hañse zai hoór de, ‘Ó fut, aijja anggur-barizat zai ham gorgói.’But what do you think? There was a man who had two sons. He went to the first one and said, ‘Son, go and work today in the vineyard.’

29Fua ye zuwab diyé de, ‘Añí no zaiyum,’ montor íte fisór ttu mon fírai yore giiyé.‘I will not,’ he replied. But later he changed his mind and went.

30Yóggwa ye fua cóñṛo war hañse yó zai ekí ḍóilla hoiyé. Íte zuwab diyé de, ‘Jii, zaiyum,’ montor íte nó zaa.Then the man went to the second son and told him the same thing. ‘I will, sir,’ he said. But he did not go.

31Fua duní wa ttu hone baf or moncá fura goijjé?” Ítara Íba re hoór de, “Ḍoóñr gwá ye.” Isá ye ítara re hoór de, “Añí tuáñra re sóiyi hoóir, házana-tulóya ókkol edde magi mayafuain ókkol Allar raijjot tuáñrar age góler.Which of the two did the will of his father?” “The first,” they answered. Jesus said to them, “Truly I tell you, the tax collectors and prostitutes are entering the kingdom of God before you.

32Kiyólla-hoilé Yaháya toh forhésgarir torika dahái bolla tuáñrar hañse aiccíl, aar tuáñra íba re ekin nó goró; montor házana-tulóya ókkole edde magi mayafuain ókkole íba re ekin goijjé; tuáñra híyan dekí baade yo mon nó fíro aar íba re ekin nó goró.”For John came to you in the way of righteousness, and you did not believe him, but the tax collectors and prostitutes did. And even after you saw this, you did not repent and believe him.

33“Arekkán meésal fúno: Ekgwá zomidar accíl, zibá ye ekkán anggur-bariza lagaiyé. Yóggwa ye híyan or sairó ḍák ottu gíra díye, anggur or roc neelai bolla héṛe bútore eggwá gañrá kuijjé, aar ekkán ṭongki baindé. Baade bariza gán cacá ókkol ore ṭéka dí yóggwa oinno mulluk ot giiyói.Listen to another parable: There was a landowner who planted a vineyard. He put a wall around it, dug a winepress in it, and built a tower. Then he rented it out to some tenants and went away on a journey.

34Zeñtté anggur or ainda aiccé, yóggwar gula yóggwa ye fai bolla nizor goóur ókkol ore cacá gún or hañse difeṛáiye.When the harvest time drew near, he sent his servants to the tenants to collect his share of the fruit.

35Montor cacá gúne yóggwar goóur híin ore dóri, eggwá re mara-dóra goijjé, ar eggwá re zane marifélaiye, ar eggwá re fattór maijjé.But the tenants seized his servants. They beat one, killed another, and stoned a third.

36Abar yóggwa ye agor gún or túaro beecgori goóur ókkol difeṛáiye; cacá gúne ítara re yó ekí ḍóilla goijjé.Again, he sent other servants, more than the first group. But the tenants did the same to them.

37Ebbe ahérit, yóggwa ye eén báfi nizor fua re ítarar héṛe difeṛáiye, ‘Ítara añr fua re izzot goríbo.’Finally, he sent his son to them. ‘They will respect my son,’ he said.

38Montor cacá gúne fua wa re dekí afós ot hoór de, ‘Ite toh mirasdár; aiyó itaré marifélai itar miras loifélai.’But when the tenants saw the son, they said to one another, ‘This is the heir. Come, let us kill him and take his inheritance.’

39Tói ítara íba re dóri barizar baáre loizai marifélaiye.”So they seized him and threw him out of the vineyard and killed him.

40“Hé ísafe, barizar girós ailé, hé cacá gún ore kii goríbo fáñllar?”Therefore, when the owner of the vineyard returns, what will he do to those tenants?”

41Ítara Íba re hoór de, “Yóggwa ye hóraf manúc híin ore sáabgori hótom gorífelaibo, aar bariza gán undilla cacá ókkol ore ṭéka dífelaibo zetará ainda ailé yóggwa re gular bák diibo.”“He will bring those wretches to a wretched end,” they replied, “and will rent out the vineyard to other tenants who will give him his share of the fruit at harvest time.”

42Isá ye ítara re hoór de, “Tuáñra pak-kalam ot yián bilkúl nó foró níki, ‘Ze fattór mistíri ye inkar gorífelaiye, yíba fattór beggún or túaro bicí zoruri wa óigiyoi. Híyan Mabud or torfóttu óiaicce, aar híyan añárar suk ot taajuippa?’Jesus said to them, “Have you never read in the Scriptures: ‘The stone the builders rejected has become the cornerstone. This is from the Lord, and it is marvelous in our eyes’?

43“Hétolla Añí tuáñra re hoóir, Allar raijjo tuáñra ttu loifélai undilla eggwá koum ore diiféla zaybo, zibá ye niki híyan or gulagala dóraibo.Therefore I tell you that the kingdom of God will be taken away from you and given to a people who will produce its fruit.

44Zee niki hé fattór or uore foribó, íte báñgi hán-hán óizayboi; montor zar uore niki hé fattór foribó, íte ficí záyboi.”He who falls on this stone will be broken to pieces, but he on whom it falls will be crushed.”

45Ḍoóñr imam ókkole edde Féroci ókkole Íbar meésal lun fúni buzígiyoi de ki Íba ye ítarar baabute hoór deh.When the chief priests and Pharisees heard His parables, they knew that Jesus was speaking about them.

46Ítara Íba re dórifelai bolla kucíc goijjíl, montor ítara awam ókkol ore ḍooraitó, kiyólla-hoilé ítara Íba re nobi mainto.Although they wanted to arrest Him, they were afraid of the crowds, because the people regarded Him as a prophet.
