KAPTINA IV.
1 Mbasandai filloi për-së-ri me mësumë ndaj detinë; ende shumë gjindëje u mbëlothnë ke ai, kaqi sa ai hyni ndë lundrët, ende rrinte ndë det; ende gjithë gjindëja ishte mbë tokë, për-anë detit.
2 Ende mësonte ata me shumë parabulla, ende u thoshte atyne ndë mësimt të vet:
3 Ndëgjoni. Ngje ke dul mbiellësi me mbiellë;
4 ende mbë të mbiellët, njiana ra mb’udhë, ende shpendët’ e qillit erthnë ende e hangrën.
5 Ende tietra ra mbë vend gurishtë, ku s’kishte dhe shumë, ende bini përnjiherë, sepse s’kishte dhe të thellë,
6 por kur leu dilli u doq; ende sepse s’kishte rrajë, u tha.
7 Ende tietra ra ndë drizat, ende drizatë hypnë, ende e mbytnë, ende nukë dha pemë.
8 Ende tietra ra ndë dhe të mirë, ende epte pemë, tue hypun’ e tue u shtumë; ende pruni pemë për nji tri-dhitë, ende për nji gjashtë-dhitë, ende për nji nji qind.
9 Mbasandai u thoshte atyne: Ai qi ka veshë me ndëgjumë, le të ndëgjojë.
10 Ende kur mbeti vetëmë, ata qi ishinë rreth ati bashkë me të dy-mbë-dhitët e pyetnë për parabullënë.
11 Ende ai u tha atyne: Mbë ju ashtë dhanë me ngjofunë mpshefsinën’ e mbëretënisë Perëndisë, po mb’ata qi janë jashtë, të gjitha bahenë me parabulla,
12 qi tue pamë të ven’ore, ende të mos shofinë; ende tue ndëgjumë të ndëgjojnë, ende të mos marrinë vesht; qi të mos këthehenë ndonjiherë, e t’u falenë fajetë.
13 Mbasandai u thot’ atyne: Nuk’ e dini këte parabullë? Ende si keni me marrë vesht gjithë parabullatë?
14 Mbiellësi asht’ ai qi mbill fjalënë.
15 Ende këta për-an’ udhësë jan’ ata qi mbilletë fjala mb’ata; po kur ndëgjojnë vien Satanai përnjiherë, e u merr fjalënë qi ashtë mbiellë ndë zemërat t’atyneve.
16 Ende këta kështu, jan’ ata qi janë mbiellë ndë vende gurishta, të cillëtë kur ndëgjojnë fjalënë, përnjiherë e marrinë me gëzim;
17 po s’kanë rrajë ndë vetëvetëhet, po janë për pak kohë; mbasandai kur bahetë shtrëngim, a të ndiekunë për fjalënë përnjiherë shkandalizohenë.
18 Ende këta qi janë mbiellë ndër drizat, jan’ ata qi ndëgjojnë fjalënë;
19 po gailet’ e kësai jete, ende gënjim’ i gjasë, ende dëshërimetë për të tierat punë , hyjn’ e mbushinë fjalënë, ende bahetë pa-pemë.
20 Po këta, jan’ ata qi u mbollnë ndë dhe të mirë, të cillëtë ndëgjojnë fjalën’, ende e presin’, ende bijënë pemë, për nji tri-dhitë, ende për nji gjashtë-dhitë, ende për nji nji qind.
21 Ende u thoshte atyne: Mos vien kandili për me u vumë ndënë hu të drithit , a ndënë shtrat? E jo për me u vumë mbi kandilier?
22 Sepse s’ashtë gja e mpshefët, qi të mos shpërfaqetë; as s’ashtë bamë ndonji gja e mpshefët, qi të mos dali për faqe.
23 Ndë pastë kush veshë me ndëgjumë, le të ndëgjojë.
24 Ende u thoshtë atyne: Veni ore qish ndëgjoni - me çfarë matësi matni, kanë me u matunë juve, ende ka me u shtumë mbë ju qi ndëgjoni.
25 Sepse ati qi ka, do t’i epet’ ende tietër ; ende ati qi s’ka, ende qish të ketë, do të mirretë prei ati.
26 Ende thoshte: Kështu ashtë mbëretënia e Perëndisë, posi nji nieri qi hedh farë mbë dhet,
27 ende fle, e çohetë nat’ e ditë, ende fara bin, ende rritetë, kështu qi ai s’e di se si .
28 Sepse dheu bije pemë prei vetëvetëhesë; përpara bar, mbasandai plot me grun ndë kall.
29 Ende pema kur piqetë përnjiherë dërgon drapëninë, sepse e mbërrini të korrëtë.
30 Ende thoshte: Me se të përgjajmë mbëretënin’ e Perëndisë? A me çfarë parabulle ta vemë ngjat?
31 Ashtë posi nji koqe senapi, e cilla kur mbilletë mbë dhet, ashtë ma e vogëlë se gjithë faratë qi janë mbë dhet,
32 po si mbilletë, rritet’ e bahetë ma e madhe se gjithë barishtatë, ende ban dega të mëdha; kaqi sa shpendët’ e qillit mundenë me ndenjunë ndënë hijet t’asai.
33 Ende me shumë këso parabullash u fliste fjalën’ atyne, sikurse mundeshinë me ndëgjumë.
34 Ende pa parabullë nuk’ u fliste atyne, po dishepujvet vet ua sgjidhte të gjitha veç-anë.
35 Ende mb’ate ditë, si u ngrys, u thot’atyne: Le të kapërcejmë përtej.
36 Ende dishepujtë si lanë gjindëjenë, e murnë mbas vetëhesë, sikundrë ishte ndë lundrët;
37 ende ishinë bashkë me ate ende të tiera lundrëza. Ende bahetë nji thëllim ere i math, ende valëtë bijënë mbrenda ndë lundrët, kaqi sa ajo ndashti po mbushei.
38 Ende ai ishte ndë bisht të lundrëzë tue fjetunë mbi krenarenë; ende ata e çojn’, e i thonë: Mieshtër, a s’ke gaile, se po humbimë?
39 Ende ai u çu, e qirtoi erën’, ende i tha detit: Pusho, mos pëzai! Ende pushoi era, ende u ba bunac’ e madhe.
40 Mbasandai u tha atyne: Ç’frikësa jeni kështu? Si s’keni besë?
41 Ende ata u frikunë me frikë të madhe, ende i thoshinë njiani tietrit: Vallë kush ashtë kyi, qi i ndëgjojnë ende era, ende deti?
1 And he began again to teach by the sea side: and there was gathered unto him a great multitude, so that he entered into a ship, and sat in the sea; and the whole multitude was by the sea on the land. 2 And he taught them many things by parables, and said unto them in his doctrine, 3 Hearken; Behold, there went out a sower to sow: 4 And it came to pass, as he sowed, some fell by the way side, and the fowls of the air came and devoured it up. 5 And some fell on stony ground, where it had not much earth; and immediately it sprang up, because it had no depth of earth: 6 But when the sun was up, it was scorched; and because it had no root, it withered away. 7 And some fell among thorns, and the thorns grew up, and choked it, and it yielded no fruit. 8 And other fell on good ground, and did yield fruit that sprang up and increased; and brought forth, some thirty, and some sixty, and some an hundred. 9 And he said unto them, He that hath ears to hear, let him hear. 10 And when he was alone, they that were about him with the twelve asked of him the parable. 11 And he said unto them, Unto you it is given to know the mystery of the kingdom of God: but unto them that are without, all these things are done in parables: 12 That seeing they may see, and not perceive; and hearing they may hear, and not understand; lest at any time they should be converted, and their sins should be forgiven them. 13 And he said unto them, Know ye not this parable? and how then will ye know all parables?
14 ¶ The sower soweth the word. 15 And these are they by the way side, where the word is sown; but when they have heard, Satan cometh immediately, and taketh away the word that was sown in their hearts. 16 And these are they likewise which are sown on stony ground; who, when they have heard the word, immediately receive it with gladness; 17 And have no root in themselves, and so endure but for a time: afterward, when affliction or persecution ariseth for the word’s sake, immediately they are offended. 18 And these are they which are sown among thorns; such as hear the word, 19 And the cares of this world, and the deceitfulness of riches, and the lusts of other things entering in, choke the word, and it becometh unfruitful. 20 And these are they which are sown on good ground; such as hear the word, and receive it , and bring forth fruit, some thirtyfold, some sixty, and some an hundred.
21 ¶ And he said unto them, Is a candle brought to be put under a bushel, or under a bed? and not to be set on a candlestick? 22 For there is nothing hid, which shall not be manifested; neither was any thing kept secret, but that it should come abroad. 23 If any man have ears to hear, let him hear. 24 And he said unto them, Take heed what ye hear: with what measure ye mete, it shall be measured to you: and unto you that hear shall more be given. 25 For he that hath, to him shall be given: and he that hath not, from him shall be taken even that which he hath.
26 ¶ And he said, So is the kingdom of God, as if a man should cast seed into the ground; 27 And should sleep, and rise night and day, and the seed should spring and grow up, he knoweth not how. 28 For the earth bringeth forth fruit of herself; first the blade, then the ear, after that the full corn in the ear. 29 But when the fruit is brought forth, immediately he putteth in the sickle, because the harvest is come.
30 ¶ And he said, Whereunto shall we liken the kingdom of God? or with what comparison shall we compare it? 31 It is like a grain of mustard seed, which, when it is sown in the earth, is less than all the seeds that be in the earth: 32 But when it is sown, it groweth up, and becometh greater than all herbs, and shooteth out great branches; so that the fowls of the air may lodge under the shadow of it. 33 And with many such parables spake he the word unto them, as they were able to hear it . 34 But without a parable spake he not unto them: and when they were alone, he expounded all things to his disciples. 35 And the same day, when the even was come, he saith unto them, Let us pass over unto the other side. 36 And when they had sent away the multitude, they took him even as he was in the ship. And there were also with him other little ships. 37 And there arose a great storm of wind, and the waves beat into the ship, so that it was now full. 38 And he was in the hinder part of the ship, asleep on a pillow: and they awake him, and say unto him, Master, carest thou not that we perish? 39 And he arose, and rebuked the wind, and said unto the sea, Peace, be still. And the wind ceased, and there was a great calm. 40 And he said unto them, Why are ye so fearful? how is it that ye have no faith? 41 And they feared exceedingly, and said one to another, What manner of man is this, that even the wind and the sea obey him?
