He is a Gift 21

1 And when they drew near into Foundations of Peace and have come into Bethphage into the Mount of the Olive Trees, at that time Salvation sent away two Learners.
2 He who is saying to themselves, "Ferry across into the Unwalled Village, the Down-Opposite one of yourselves, and straightly you will find a donkey, she who has been chained, and a young colt in company with herself; those who have loosened, lead to myself.
3 And if anyone should say anything to yourselves, you will say that the Master of themselves holds a need, and straightly he will send themselves.
4 And this one has become so that might be fulfilled the one which was spoken of across from the Prophet, that which is being said,

ὑποζυγίου - pack animal, beast of burden

5 "Say to the Daughter of Monument ("Zion"), Behold! the King of yourself is coming to you, gentle, and he who has lighted upon a donkey and upon a young colt, a son of a beast of the yoke!"

Sitting on a Pregnant Donkey

6 And those who have ferried across, the Learners, and those who have made just as the Salvation arranged together to themselves,
7 led the Donkey and the Young Colt, and they put the Outer Garments on themselves, and he sat on top of themselves.
8 And the very great Multitude spread of themselves the Outer Garments within the Road but different ones were cutting down branches away from the Trees and were spreading within the Road.

Hoshanna: "Please Deliver!"

9 And the Multitude, the ones who are leading forward before himself, and the ones who are accompanying, were cawing, those who say, "Deliver Please! to the Son of Beloved, he who has been well-spoken, the one who is coming within a name of Master, Deliver Please! among the Highest Ones!"
10 And he who has come in of himself into Foundations of Peace, she was shaken to and fro, the entire City, she who is saying, "Who is this one?"
11 And the Multitude were saying, "This one is the Prophet, Salvation, the one away from Sprouting Place ("Nazareth") of the Land of Circuit ("Galilee")!"
12 And Salvation came in into the Holy Place, and he cast out all of those who are selling, and those who are buying within the Holy Place, and the Eating-Tables of the Small-Money Changers he turned upside down, also the Seats the those who are selling the Doves.

House of my Prayer, בית תפלתי - Isa 56:7

13 And he is speaking to themselves, "It has been written, the House of myself, a house of a prayer, is being summoned, and yourselves are making himself a den of robbers!"
14 And smoke-blind ones and limping maimed ones drew near to himself within the Holy Place and he treated themselves.

Deliver the Son!

15 And the High Priests and the Scholars, those who have seen the Wondrous ones, whomever he has made, and the Little Boys, the ones who are cawing out within the Holy Place, and those who are saying, "Deliverance please! to the Son of Beloved!", they became indignant.

αἶνος - A Tale

16 And they said to himself, "Do you hear what these ones are saying?" And the Salvation is speaking to themselves, "Yes! Never at any time did you recognize that From out of a mouth of unspeaking-babes, and those who are nursing, you have repaired a story!"
17 And he who has left down themselves, came out outside the City into House of Misery ("Bethany") and He encamped the night there.

Into the City Above

18 And at dawn, he who is leading up into the City, was hungry.
19 And he who has perceived a fig tree, one upon the Road, came upon herself, and he found no one within herself except only leaves, and he is speaking to herself, "Never again from out yourself will he become fruit into the Eternal one, and she was withered up on the spot, the Fig Tree.
20 And those who have perceived, the Learners, marveled, those who are saying, "How was the Fig Tree withered on the spot?"
21 And he who has been separated, the Salvation, said to themselves, "Amen, I am saying to yourselves, if you should hold trust and are not splitting up, not only will you make the one of the Fig Tree, but rather if to this Mountain you should say, "Be lifted up, and be cast into the Sea, it will become."
22 And everything, as much as you may ask within the Prayer, those who are trusting, you will take hold.
23 And he who has come of himself into the Holy Place, drew near to himself, he who is teaching, the High Priests and the Elders of the People, those who are saying, "Within what kind of authority are you making these ones? And who gave this Authority to yourself?"
24 And he who has been separated, the Salvation, said to themselves, "I will ask yourselves, even myself, one word whatever if you should tell myself, even myself to yourselves, I will tell within what kind of authority I am making these ones.
25 From where was the Submersion of the Favored? From out of heaven or from out of men?" And the ones began dialoguing within themselves, those who are saying, "If we should say from out of heaven, he will say to ourselves, across what therefore have you not trusted himself?
26 But if we should say from out of men, we are afraid of the whole Multitude, for as a prophet they are holding the Favored."
27 And those who have been separated to the Salvation, they said, "We don't see." He was bringing to light to themselves, "And himself, neither myself, is saying to yourselves within what kind of authority I am making these ones."
28 And how does it seem to yourselves— A man was holding two children, he who has drawn near. He said to the First one, 'Child, lead under, work today, within the Vineyard.'

Ἐγὼ κύριε - I, Master

29 And the one who has been separated said, 'Myself, master' and he did not go off.^39b
30 And he who has drawn near to the Second, said the same thing. And the one who has been separated said, 'I don't desire.' And finally, he who has regretted himself, went off.⁴⁰

Esau or Jacob?

31 Who from out of the Two made the Desire of the Father? They are saying, 'the Second.' The Salvation is saying to themselves, "Amen, I am saying to yourselves that the Tax Farmers and the Harlots lead before yourselves into the Queen of the God!"⁴¹
32 For Favored came toward yourselves within a way of Justice, and you did not trust himself. But tax farmers and prostitutes trusted himself, and yourselves, those who have perceived, neither did you regret afterward to trust himself!

What you do to her, you do to yourself

33 Listen to another comparison! A man was being a Household-master, anyone who planted a vineyard. And he placed a fence around himself, and he dug out a trough within himself and he home-built a tower, and he gave out himself to earth-workers, and he journeyed.
34 And when the Time of the Fruits drew near, he sent away the Slaves of himself toward the Earth-Workers to take hold of the Fruits of himself.
35 And the Earth-Workers, those who have taken hold of the Slaves of himself, indeed whosoever they skinned, and whosoever they killed away, and whosoever they pelt with stones.
36 He sent backwards other slaves, greater than the First ones, and they made for themselves the same.
37 And lastly, he sent away toward themselves the Son of himself, he who is saying, "They will turn around the Son of myself."
39 And those who have taken hold of himself, they cast out of the Vineyard and they killed away.
40 When therefore the Master of the Vineyard should come, what will he make for the Earth-Workers, those ones?
41 They are saying to himself, "Evil ones, evilly he will destroy away themselves, and the Vineyard he will give out to different earth-workers, anyone who will give back himself the Fruits within the Times of themselves!"

ἀπεδοκίμασαν - rejected after close examination

42 The Salvation is saying to themselves, "You have never discerned within the Writings, "A stone, whosoever they have rejected away, the ones who are house-building, this one has become into a head of an angle; close beside a master she has become, and she is a wondrous one within eyes of ourselves!
43 Across to this one I am saying to yourselves that she will be lifted up away from yourselves, the Queen of the God, and she will be given to a band of people, that one which is making the Fruits of herself!

He will Part the Grain from the Chaff

44 And the one who has fallen upon the Stone, this one, will be crushed together, and upon whomever he should fall he will winnow himself.
45 And the High Priests and the Separatists, those who have heard the Comparisons of himself, recognized that around themselves he is speaking.
46 And those who are seeking to take power over himself, they feared the Multitude since they were holding himself into a prophet.
