And as they heard these things, He (Jesus) added and spake a parable, because He was nigh to Jerusalem, and because they thought that the Kingdom of God should immediately appear. (Luke 19:11)
At samantalang pinakikinggan nila ang mga bagay na ito, ay dinugtungan Niya (ni Jesus) at sinalita ang isang talinghaga, sapagkat Siya’y malapit na sa Jerusalem, at sapagkat kanilang inakala na pagdaka’y mahahayag ang Kaharian ng Diyos. (Lucas 19: 11)
