From a fully vowelled text
وَابْتَدَأَ يَقُولُ لَهُمْ بِأَمْثَال: «إِنْسَانٌ غَرَسَ كَرْمًا وَأَحَاطَهُ بِسِيَاجٍ، وَحَفَرَ حَوْضَ مَعْصَرَةٍ، وَبَنَى بُرْجًا، وَسَلَّمَهُ إِلَى كَرَّامِينَ وَسَافَرَ.And he began to speak unto them by parables. A certain man planted a vineyard, and set an hedge about it, and digged a place for the winefat, and built a tower, and let it out to husbandmen, and went into a far country.Mark 12:1, Smith & Van Dyke (1865) / KJV
مُذْ تِلْكَ الأَيَّامِ كَانَ أَحَدُكُمْ يَأْتِي إِلَى عَرَمَةِ عِشْرِينَ فَكَانَتْ عَشَرَةً. أَتَى إِلَى حَوْضِ الْمِعْصَرَةِ لِيَغْرُفَ خَمْسِينَ فُورَةً فَكَانَتْ عِشْرِينَ.Since those days were, when one came to an heap of twenty measures, there were but ten: when one came to the pressfat for to draw out fifty vessels out of the press, there were but twenty.Haggai 2:16, Smith & Van Dyke (1865) / KJV
