²⁸
THE PARABLE OF THE TWO CHILDREN
But what think you? A human has two children: and he comes to the first and says, Child, go work today in my vineyard.

²⁵ He words, Yes. And he enters the house; and Yah Shua anticipates him, wording, What think you, Shimon? Of whom do the sovereigns of the earth take completion/shalom or tribute? - Of their own sons? Or of others?

¹
THE PARABLE OF THE VINEYARD WORKERS
For the sovereigndom of the heavens is likened to a human - a housedespotes who goes simultaneously early in the morning to hire workers into his vineyard:

⁵ Again about the sixth and ninth hour he goes and does likewise. ⁶ And about the eleventh hour he goes and finds others standing idle, and words to them, Why stand you here idle all the day? ⁷ They word to him, Because no one hires us. He words to them, You also go into the vineyard; and whatever is just, you take.

³³
THE PARABLE OF THE VINEYARD
Hear another parable: A human housedespotes, plants a vineyard and hedges it all around and digs a trough in it and builds a tower and leases it to cultivators and goes abroad:

¹⁷ so say to us, What think you? Is it allowed to give tribute to the Kaisar - or not?

³⁴ For as a human who goes abroad - who forsakes his house and gives his servants authority - to each his work and also misvahs the portalguard to watch.

⁴ Or those eighteen upon whom the tower in Shiloach fell and slaughtered them: think you that they became indebted above all humanity who settle in Yeru Shalem?

YAH SHUA ON THE LOST SON
And he says, A human has two sons: ¹² and the younger of them says to his father, Father, give me the portion of substance laid up. - and he distributes his subsistence to them. ¹³ And not many days after the younger son gathers all together and goes abroad to a distant region; and there squanders his substance with dissipative living ¹⁴ and he spends it all: and a mighty famine becomes in that region; and he begins to lack: ¹⁵ and he goes and joins himself to a citizen of that region: and he sends him into his fields to graze swine: ¹⁶ and he pants to fill his belly with the pods the swine eat: and no one gives him. ¹⁷ And he comes to himself, and says, How many hirelings of my father have super abundant bread, and I destruct with famine! ¹⁸ I rise and go to my father, and say to him, Father, I sinned against the heavens and in your sight; ¹⁹ and am no more worthy to be called your son: make me as one of your hirelings. ²⁰ And he rises, and comes to his father. and still being afar, his father sees him and has a sympathetic spleen and runs and falls on his neck and ardently kisses him: ²¹ - and the son says to him, Father, I sinned against the heavens and in your sight and am no more worthy to be called your son. ²² But the father says to his servants, Bring the preeminent stole and endue him; and give a finger ring on his hand and shoes on his feet; ²³ and bring the fatted calf and sacrifice; and eat, and rejoice: ²⁴ for this my son was dead, and relives; he was lost, and is found. - and they begin to rejoice. ²⁵ And his elder son is in the field: and as he comes and approaches the house he hears symphony and chorus: ²⁶ and he calls one of the lads, and asks what these be. ²⁷ And he says to him, Your brother is come; and your father sacrifices the fatted calf because he takes him safe and sound. ²⁸ - and he is wroth and wills to not enter. So his father comes out to console him: ²⁹ and he answers his father, saying, Behold, so many years I serve you, never ever passed I over your misvah: and yet you never ever gave me a goat to rejoice with my friends: ³⁰ but as soon as this - your son comes - who devoured your subsistence with whores, for him you sacrifice the fatted calf. ³¹ And he says to him, Child, you are ever with me; and all I have is yours. ³² It is necessary to rejoice, and cheer: for this your brother was dead and relives; and was lost, and is found.

¹⁵ I word as to the thoughtful, judge what I say.

⁵⁸ So my beloved brothers, become grounded; unmoveable; always superabounding in the work of Adonay knowing that your labor in Adonay is not in vain.
