Matthew 25
1 “Then the Kingdom of Heaven will be like ten virgins who took their lamps and went out to meet the bridegroom.
“Pea ʻe toki tatau ʻae puleʻanga ʻoe langi mo e kau tāupoʻou ʻe toko hongofulu, naʻa nau toʻo ʻenau ngaahi tūhulu, ʻo ʻalu atu ke fakafetaulaki ki he tangata taʻane.
2 Five of them were foolish, and five were wise.
Naʻe poto honau toko nima, kae vale ʻae toko nima.
3 Those who were foolish, when they took their lamps, took no oil with them,
Ko kinautolu naʻe vale naʻe ʻave ʻenau tūhulu, ka naʻe ʻikai ʻave mo haʻanau lolo:
4 but the wise took oil in their vessels with their lamps.
Ka naʻe ʻave ʻe he poto ʻae lolo ʻi heʻenau ngaahi ipu, pea mo ʻenau tūhulu
5 Now while the bridegroom delayed, they all slumbered and slept.
Pea ʻi he tuai mai ʻae tangata taʻane, naʻa nau tulemohe kotoa pē ʻo mohe.
6 But at midnight there was a cry, ‘Behold! The bridegroom is coming! Come out to meet him!’
“Pea tuʻuapō mālie mo ʻene pa mai ʻae kalanga, ‘Vakai, ʻoku haʻu ʻae tangata taʻane; mou ʻalu atu ʻo fakafetaulaki kiate ia.’
7 Then all those virgins arose, and trimmed their lamps.
Pea toki tuʻu hake ʻae kau tāupoʻou kotoa pē ko ia, ʻo teuteu ʻenau tūhulu.
8 The foolish said to the wise, ‘Give us some of your oil, for our lamps are going out.’
Pea lea ʻae vale ki he poto, ‘Foaki mai maʻamautolu ʻi hoʻomou lolo; he ʻoku tei mate ʻemau tūhulu’
9 But the wise answered, saying, ‘What if there is not enough for us and you? You go rather to those who sell, and buy for yourselves.’
Ka naʻe lea ʻae poto, ʻo pehēange, ‘Ka koeʻuhi naʻa siʻi ia kiate kimautolu mo kimoutolu: ka mou ʻalu kiate kinautolu ʻoku fakatau, ʻo fakatau maʻamoutolu.’
10 While they went away to buy, the bridegroom came, and those who were ready went in with him to the wedding feast, and the door was shut.
Pea lolotonga ʻenau ʻalu ke fakatau, mo ʻene haʻu ʻae tangata taʻane, pea ko kinautolu naʻe teuteu naʻe hū mo ia ki he taʻane: pea tāpuni ʻae matapā.
11 Afterward the other virgins also came, saying, ‘Lord, Lord, open to us.’
“Hili ia, mo ʻene haʻu foki ʻae kau tāupoʻou naʻe ʻalu, ʻonau pehē, ‘ʻEiki, ʻEiki, toʻo kiate kimautolu.’
12 But he answered, ‘Most certainly I tell you, I do not know you.’
Ka naʻe lea ia, ʻo pehēange, ‘ʻOku ou tala moʻoni atu kiate kimoutolu, ʻoku ʻikai te u ʻiloa ʻakimoutolu.’
13 Watch therefore, for you do not know the day nor the hour in which the Son of Man is coming.
“Ko ia mou leʻo, he ʻoku ʻikai te mou ʻilo ʻae ʻaho pe ʻae feituʻulaʻā ʻe haʻu ai ʻae Foha ʻoe tangata.
14 “For it is like a man going into another country, who called his own servants and entrusted his goods to them.
“Pea ʻoku hangē foki ko e tangata ʻoku te u fononga ki ha fonua mamaʻo, pea ui ʻene kau tamaioʻeiki ʻaʻana, ʻo ne tuku kiate kinautolu ʻene ngaahi meʻa.
15 To one he gave five talents, to another two, to another one, to each according to his own ability. Then he went on his journey.
Naʻe tuku ki he tokotaha ʻae taleniti ʻe nima, pea ua ki he tokotaha, pea taha ki he tokotaha; ki he tangata taki taha ʻo fakatatau ki heʻene faʻa fai, pea ʻalu leva hono fononga.
16 Immediately he who received the five talents went and traded with them, and made another five talents.
Pea ko ia naʻe maʻu ʻae taleniti ʻe nima, naʻe ʻalu ia, ʻo fakatauʻaki ia, ʻo ne fakalahi ʻaki ia ʻae taleniti kehe ʻe nima.
17 In the same way, he also who got the two gained another two.
Pea ko ia foki naʻe ua, naʻa ne maʻu ʻaki ia ʻae ua kehe.
18 But he who received the one talent went away and dug in the earth and hid his lord’s money.
Ka ko ia naʻe maʻu ʻae taha, naʻe ʻalu ia, ʻo keli ʻi he kelekele, ʻo tanu ʻae koloa ʻa ʻene ʻeiki.
19 “Now after a long time the lord of those servants came, and settled accounts with them.
“Pea fuoloa, pea [toki ]haʻu ʻae ʻeiki ʻoe kau tamaioʻeiki ko ia, ʻo ne fakamaauʻi ʻakinautolu.
20 He who received the five talents came and brought another five talents, saying, ‘Lord, you delivered to me five talents. Behold, I have gained another five talents in addition to them.’
Pea haʻu ia ʻaia naʻa ne maʻu ʻae taleniti ʻe nima, ʻo ne ʻomi mo e taleniti kehe ʻe nima, ʻo ne pehē, ‘ʻEiki, naʻa ke tuku mai kiate au ʻae taleniti ʻe nima: vakai, kuo u maʻu mo ia ʻae taleniti kehe ʻe nima.’
21 “His lord said to him, ‘Well done, good and faithful servant. You have been faithful over a few things, I will set you over many things. Enter into the joy of your lord.’
Pea pehēange ʻe heʻene ʻeiki kiate ia, ‘Mālō, ko e tamaioʻeiki lelei mo angatonu: kuo ke fai totonu ʻi he meʻa siʻi, te u fakanofo koe ke ke pule ki he meʻa lahi: hū koe ki he fiefiaʻanga ʻo hoʻo ʻeiki.’
22 “He also who got the two talents came and said, ‘Lord, you delivered to me two talents. Behold, I have gained another two talents in addition to them.’
Pea haʻu foki ia naʻa ne maʻu ʻae taleniti ʻe ua, ʻo ne pehē, ‘ʻEiki, naʻa ke tuku mai kiate au ʻae taleniti ʻe ua: vakai, kuo u maʻu mo ia ʻae taleniti kehe ʻe ua.’
23 “His lord said to him, ‘Well done, good and faithful servant. You have been faithful over a few things. I will set you over many things. Enter into the joy of your lord.’
Pea pehēange ʻe heʻene ʻeiki kiate ia, ‘Mālō, ko e tamaioʻeiki lelei mo angatonu: kuo ke fai totonu ʻi he meʻa siʻi, te u fakanofo koe ke ke pule ki he meʻa lahi: hū koe ki he fiefiaʻanga ʻo hoʻo ʻeiki.’
24 “He also who had received the one talent came and said, ‘Lord, I knew you that you are a hard man, reaping where you did not sow, and gathering where you did not scatter.
Pea toki haʻu ia naʻa ne maʻu ʻae taleniti ʻe taha, ʻo ne pehē, ‘ʻEiki, ne u ʻilo koe ko e tangata faingataʻa, ʻoku ke tuʻusi ʻi he potu naʻe ʻikai te ke tūtuuʻi ai, ʻo tānaki ʻi he potu naʻe ʻikai te ke tufaki ai:
25 I was afraid, and went away and hid your talent in the earth. Behold, you have what is yours.’
Pea ne u manavahē, pea u ʻalu ʻo fufū hoʻo taleniti ʻi he kelekele: vakai, ʻoku ke maʻu ʻaia ʻoku ʻaʻau.’
26 “But his lord answered him, ‘You wicked and slothful servant. You knew that I reap where I did not sow, and gather where I did not scatter.
“Pea lea ʻene ʻeiki, ʻo pehēange kiate ia, ‘ʻAe tamaioʻeiki angakovi mo fakapikopiko, naʻa ke ʻilo ʻoku ou tuʻusi ʻi he potu naʻe ʻikai te u tūtuuʻi ai, mo tānaki ʻi he potu naʻe ʻikai te u tufaki ai:
27 You ought therefore to have deposited my money with the bankers, and at my coming I should have received back my own with interest.
Naʻe totonu ai haʻo ʻatu ʻeku koloa ki he kau fakatau, koeʻuhi ʻi heʻeku haʻu te u maʻu ʻaia ʻoku ʻaʻaku mo hono fakalahi.
28 Take away therefore the talent from him and give it to him who has the ten talents.
Ko ia toʻo ʻae taleniti meiate ia, ʻo ʻoatu kiate ia ʻoku hongofulu ʻene taleniti.
29 For to everyone who has will be given, and he will have abundance, but from him who does not have, even that which he has will be taken away.
He ko ia fulipē ʻoku maʻu, ʻe [toe ]ʻoatu kiate ia, pea te ne maʻu ʻo lahi ʻaupito: ka ko ia ʻoku ʻikai maʻu, ʻe toʻo meiate ia ʻaia ʻoku ne maʻu.
30 Throw out the unprofitable servant into the outer darkness, where there will be weeping and gnashing of teeth.’
Pea mou lī ʻae tamaioʻeiki taʻeʻaonga ki he poʻuli ʻi tuaʻā: pea ʻe ʻi ai ʻae tangi mo e fengaiʻitaki ʻoe nifo.’
31 “But when the Son of Man comes in his glory, and all the holy angels with him, then he will sit on the throne of his glory.
“ʻOka haʻu ʻae Foha ʻoe tangata ʻi hono nāunau, mo e kau ʻāngelo māʻoniʻoni kotoa pē mo ia, ʻe toki nofo ia ʻi he nofoʻa ʻo hono nāunau:
32 Before him all the nations will be gathered, and he will separate them one from another, as a shepherd separates the sheep from the goats.
pea ʻe fakakātoa ʻi hono ʻao ʻae ngaahi kakai kotoa pē: pea ʻe vahe ua ʻe ia ʻakinautolu, ʻo hangē ko e vaheʻi ʻe he tauhi sipi ʻa ʻene sipi mei he kosi:
33 He will set the sheep on his right hand, but the goats on the left.
Pea ʻe tuku ʻe ia ʻae fanga sipi ki hono nima toʻomataʻu, ka ko e fanga kosi ki he toʻohema.
34 Then the King will tell those on his right hand, ‘Come, blessed of my Father, inherit the Kingdom prepared for you from the foundation of the world;
Pea ʻe toki pehē ʻe he Tuʻi kiate kinautolu ʻi hono nima toʻomataʻu, ‘Haʻu, ʻakimoutolu kuo monūʻia ʻi heʻeku Tamai, ʻo maʻu ʻae puleʻanga kuo teu moʻomoutolu talu mei he kamataʻanga ʻo māmani:
35 for I was hungry and you gave me food to eat. I was thirsty and you gave me drink. I was a stranger and you took me in.
He naʻaku fiekaia, pea naʻa mou foaki ʻae meʻakai kiate au: naʻaku fieinua, pea naʻa mou foaki ʻae inu kiate au: ko e muli au, pea naʻa mou fakaʻafeʻi au:
36 I was naked and you clothed me. I was sick and you visited me. I was in prison and you came to me.’
Telefua, pea naʻa mou fakakofuʻi au: naʻaku mahaki, pea naʻa mou ʻaʻahi mai kiate au: naʻaku ʻi he fale fakapōpula, pea naʻa mou haʻu kiate au.’
37 “Then the righteous will answer him, saying, ‘Lord, when did we see you hungry and feed you, or thirsty and give you a drink?
“Pea ʻe toki lea ʻae māʻoniʻoni, ʻo pehēange kiate ia, ‘ʻEiki, naʻa mau mamata kiate koe ʻanefē ʻoku ke fiekaia, pea mau fafangaʻi [koe]? Pea fieinua, pea mau foaki ʻae inu [kiate koe]?
38 When did we see you as a stranger and take you in, or naked and clothe you?
Naʻa mau mamata kiate koe ʻanefē ko e muli, pea mau fakaafeʻi [koe]? Pe telefua, pea mau fakakofuʻi [koe]?
39 When did we see you sick or in prison and come to you?’
Pea naʻa mau mamata kiate koe ʻanefē ʻoku ke mahaki, pe ʻi he fale fakapōpula, pea mau ʻalu atu kiate koe?’
40 “The King will answer them, ‘Most certainly I tell you, because you did it to one of the least of these my brothers, you did it to me.’
Pea ʻe lea ʻae Tuʻi, ʻo pehēange kiate kinautolu, ‘Ko ʻeku tala moʻoni atu kiate kimoutolu, Ko e meʻa ʻi hoʻomou fai ia ki ha taha ʻoku kihiʻi siʻi hifo ʻi hoku kāinga ni, ko hoʻomou fai [ia ]kiate au.’
41 Then he will say also to those on the left hand, 'Depart from me, you cursed, into the consummate (aiōnios g166) fire which is prepared for the devil and his angels;
“Pea ʻe toki tala ʻe ia foki kiate kinautolu ʻi [hono ]nima toʻohema, ‘ʻAlu ʻiate au, ʻakimoutolu kuo malaʻia, ki he afi taʻemate, naʻe teu ki he tēvolo mo ʻene kau ʻāngelo: (aiōnios g166)
42 for I was hungry, and you did not give me food to eat; I was thirsty, and you gave me no drink;
He naʻaku fiekaia, pea naʻe ʻikai te mou foaki ha meʻakai kiate au: naʻaku fieinua, pea naʻe ʻikai te mou foaki ha inu kiate au:
43 I was a stranger, and you did not take me in; naked, and you did not clothe me; sick, and in prison, and you did not visit me.’
Ko e muli au, pea naʻe ʻikai te mou fakaafeʻi au: telefua, pea naʻe ʻikai te mou fakakofuʻi au: mahaki, pea ʻi he fale fakapōpula, pea naʻe ʻikai te mou ʻaʻahi kiate au.’
44 “Then they will also answer, saying, ‘Lord, when did we see you hungry, or thirsty, or a stranger, or naked, or sick, or in prison, and did not help you?’
“Pea ʻe toki lea ai ʻakinautolu kiate ia foki, ʻo pehēange, ‘ʻEiki, naʻa mau mamata kiate koe ʻanefē ʻoku ke fiekaia, pe ko e fieinua, pe ko e muli, pe telefua, pe mahaki, pe ʻi he fale fakapōpula, kae ʻikai te mau tauhi koe?’
45 “Then he will answer them, saying, ‘Most certainly I tell you, because you did not do it to one of the least of these, you did not do it to me.’
Pea ʻe toki lea ia kiate kinautolu, ʻo pehē, ‘Ko ʻeku tala moʻoni atu kiate kimoutolu, Ko e meʻa ʻi hoʻomou taʻefai [ia ]ki ha tokotaha ʻoku kihiʻi siʻi hifo [ʻiate kinautolu ]ni, ko hoʻomou taʻefai [ia ]kiate au.’
