This OET Readers’ Version was designed to be used with the Literal Version alongside, so you won’t get the best understanding from this single viewpoint. This is still an early look into the drafted text of the Open English Translation of the Bible. Please double-check the text in advance before using in public.

The parable about obedience

21:28 The parable about obedience

28 “But what does it matter to you people, anyway? There was a man who had two children, and he went up to the first one and told him, ‘Son, go and work in my vineyard today.’ 29 ‘I can’t,’ he answered, but later he regretted what he’d said and went and did the work. 30 The father also approached the other child with the same instruction. ‘I will, master,’ this one answered, but he never went. 31 Which of the two did what the father wanted?”

“The first one,” they answered.

“I can assure you,” Yeshua (Jesus; Grk. Yesus) continued, “that tax collectors and prostitutes will enter God’s kingdom ahead of you lot, 32 because Yohan (John; Grk. Yoannes) came to you teaching the way to become right with God, but you didn’t believe that he was sent by God. Yet the tax collectors and prostitutes believed him, and still, even when you saw that, you didn’t later show regret, change your minds, and believe.[ref]


21:32: Luk 3:12; 7:29-30.
