Mathayo 25
1 Nga upwalume wa kumaunde ulandine ni aija komi babapotwi taa yabe no boka yenda kupokya ngwana arusi.
“Then the Kingdom of Heaven will be like ten virgins who took their lamps and went out to meet the bridegroom.
2 Atano nkati yane babile apumbafu ni atano benge babi bene lunda.
Five of them were foolish, and five were wise.
3 Balo ainja apumbafu bapotwi taa yabe, bapotwi kwaa mauta.
Those who were foolish, when they took their lamps, took no oil with them,
4 Bali balo atano aelevu bapotwi taa ni mauta.
but the wise took oil in their vessels with their lamps.
5 Tubwe wakati ngwana arusi pacheliye icha, bote lwatweti lungono no gonjanga.
Now while the bridegroom delayed, they all slumbered and slept.
6 Lakini kilo cha kungoko kwabi na ndoti, linga, ngwana arusi, mupangite panja mukampoki'.
But at midnight there was a cry, ‘Behold! The bridegroom is coming! Come out to meet him!’
7 Nga abo bainja bote bayumwike no washa taa yabe.
Then all those virgins arose, and trimmed their lamps.
8 Balo apumbafu baabakiye balo bene lunda, Mutupongoli mauta ginu mwanja taa yitu yenda imika'.
The foolish said to the wise, ‘Give us some of your oil, for our lamps are going out.’
9 Lakini balo bene lunda batikwayangwa na kwabakiya,'Ngatulengani twa bene ilabu yende dukani mukapeme kiasi kwaajili yinu.
But the wise answered, saying, ‘What if there isn’t enough for us and you? You go rather to those who sell, and buy for yourselves.’
10 Wakati kabayenda pema, ngwana arusi kaicha, na bote babile tayari bayei nakwe muukumbi wa sherehe ya arusi, na nianga watiyigalwa.
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.
11 Baadae balo ainja wenge pia kababuyangana na kababaya,'Ngwana, ngwana, utuyogoli.'
Afterward the other virgins also came, saying, ‘Lord, Lord, open to us.’
12 Lakini atikwayangwa ni kuwabakiya,'kweli nenda kwamakiya, nenga niatangite kwaa mwenga.'
But he answered, ‘Most certainly I tell you, I don’t know you.’
13 Kwa eyo mulinge, mana mutangite kwaa lisoba au saa.
Watch therefore, for you don’t know the day nor the hour in which the Son of Man is coming.
14 Kwa kuwa kati mundu ywa yei nema wa kutalu. Akemite atumwa bake ni kwapeya utajiri wake.
“For it is like a man going into another country, who called his own servants and entrusted his goods to them.
15 Yumo wabe ampei talanta tano, ywenge ampei talanta ibele, ni yolo ywenge ampei talanta yimo. Kla mundu apeyilwe lengana na uwezo wake, na yolo tajiri atiboka mwanja wake.
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.
16 Mapema yolo apeyilwe talanta tano ayei kwizungusha, no kwizalisha talanta zenge tano.
Immediately he who received the five talents went and traded with them, and made another five talents.
17 Nyonyonyo yolo apeyilwe talanta ibele, atizalisha zenge ibele.
In the same way, he also who got the two gained another two.
18 Lakini yolo mmanda apeyilwe talanta yimo, ayei kachake, ayei kwiebya lembwa na kwikulya ela ya ngwana wake.
But he who received the one talent went away and dug in the earth and hid his lord’s money.
19 Na baada ya masoba peta, ngwana wa amanda abo atibuya nabalanga hesabu nabo.
“Now after a long time the lord of those servants came, and settled accounts with them.
20 Yolo mmanda ywapeyilwe talanta tano kaisa ni kumpeya talanta zenge tano, kabaya,'Ngwana, unipeile talanta tano. Linga, nipatike faida yenge tano.'
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.’
21 Ngwana wake atikummakiya,'Sapi sana, wa mmanda wananoga na uaminike! ubile na uaminifu kwa ilebe njene. Nilowa kukupeya utawala kwa ilebe yanansima. Ujingii mupuraha ya Ngwana wako.'
“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.’
22 Mmanda ywa apoki talanta ibele kaisa ni kubaya,'Ngwana, unipeyile talanta ibele, linga nipatike faida ya talanta zenge ibele.
“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.’
23 Ngwana wake kammakiya,'Hongera, mmanda unoyite ni mwaminifu! Ubile mwaminifu kwa ilebe njene. Nipala kukupeya madaraka kunani ya ilebe yote. Jingya mupuraha ya ngwana wako.'
“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.’
24 Baadae yolo mmanda ywapoki talanta yimo nembe kaisa no baya,'Ngwana, nikutangite panga wenga wa mundu wa nkale, uuna pange panda.
“He also who had received the one talent came and said, ‘Lord, I knew you that you are a hard man, reaping where you didn’t sow, and gathering where you didn’t scatter.
25 Nenga natiyogopa, natiyenda kasango no iya talanta yako pae. Linga, ubile nayo pano yelo yaibile yako.'
I was afraid, and went away and hid your talent in the earth. Behold, you have what is yours.’
26 Lakini ngwana wake kayangwa no baya,'wenga, wa mmanda muou ni nzembe, watangite panga niuna pandu panikotwike panda no una pange lema.
“But his lord answered him, ‘You wicked and slothful servant. You knew that I reap where I didn’t sow, and gather where I didn’t scatter.
27 Bola ngabeka talanta yango kwa bandu ba benki, ni wakati wa kubuya kwango mbaitepokya talanta yango pamope ni faida.
You ought therefore to have deposited my money with the bankers, and at my coming I should have received back my own with interest.
28 Tubwe mumpokonye ayo talanta ni mumpei yolo mundu ywabile na talanta komi.
Take away therefore the talent from him and give it to him who has the ten talents.
29 Kila mundu ywabile nacho, alowa yongelekwa hata kwotweleya muno. Lakini ywange ba nacho alowa pokonyolwa.
For to everyone who has will be given, and he will have abundance, but from him who doesn’t have, even that which he has will be taken away.
30 Muntaikwe panja palubendo aywo mtumwa ywange faika, nakwo kwabana kilelo no sagamino.
Throw out the unprofitable servant into the outer darkness, where there will be weeping and gnashing of teeth.’
31 Wakati mwana wa Adamu paisa mu'utukufu wake na malaika bote pamope na bembe, ngatama pakitengo chake cha utukufu.
“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.
32 Mataifa gote balowa kusanyilwa nnonge yake, najwembe alowa kwabawa bandu, kati mchungaji mwabawa bwii na ngondolo.
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.
33 Alowa kwabeka ngondolo luboko lwake lwakumalyo, ila mwii alowa kwabeka luboko lwa kukeya.
He will set the sheep on his right hand, but the goats on the left.
34 Alapu mpwalume alowa kwabakiya balo bababile luboko lwake lwakumalyo,'Mwise, mwamubakilwe na Tate bangu ba kumaunde.
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;
35 Kwa mwanja nabile ni njala mwanipei chakulya, nabi na ng'eni mwatikunkaribisha;
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.
36 Nabi na bula na mwambei ngobo; nabile nangonjwa mwatinitunza. Nabile natabilwe ni munilekite.'
I was naked and you clothed me. I was sick and you visited me. I was in prison and you came to me.’
37 Nga bene haki kabannyangwa ni kummakiya,'Ngwana, lisomangani lyatubweni wi njala, na kukupeya chakulya? au ubi na nyota tukupei mase?
“Then the righteous will answer him, saying, ‘Lord, when did we see you hungry and feed you, or thirsty and give you a drink?
38 Na lisoba ngani tukubweni wiwang'eni, na twatikukaribisha? Au ubi na bula tukupei ngobo?
When did we see you as a stranger and take you in, or naked and clothe you?
39 Na lisoba gani twakubweni watamwe, au utabilwe, twaisi kukulola.
When did we see you sick or in prison and come to you?’
40 Na mpwalume alowa kwayangwa na kwabakiya,'Kweli nenda kuamakiya, cha mupangite pano kwa yumo wa nongo bango achunu, mwanipangii nenga.'
“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.’
41 Nga alowa kwabakiya balo bababile luboko lwake lwakunkeya,'Mubokange kachango, mwamulanilwe, muyende kumwoto wange yomoka wautayarishwe kwaajili ya nchela na malaika bake. (aiōnios g166)
Then he will say also to those on the left hand, ‘Depart from me, you cursed, into the eternal fire which is prepared for the devil and his angels; (aiōnios g166)
42 Kwa mwanja nabi na njala mwambei kwa chakulya; nabi na nyota mwabei kwa mache gonywa.
for I was hungry, and you didn’t give me food to eat; I was thirsty, and you gave me no drink;
43 Nabi na ng'eni mwangalibishwe kwaa; nabi na bula mwambei kwaa ngobo, nabi naatamwe na natitabilwa, lakini mwaisi kwa kunilola!
I was a stranger, and you didn’t take me in; naked, and you didn’t clothe me; sick, and in prison, and you didn’t visit me.’
44 Nga nabo nembe balowa kun'yangwa na kumakiya,'Ngwana lisoba gani tukubweni ubile na njala au ubile na nyota au wang'eni, au ubile bula au ubi waatamwe, au utabilwe, na tukuhudumiye kwaa?
“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 didn’t help you?’
45 Mwisho alowa kwayangwa na kwabakiya, kweli nenda kumakiya, chelo chamukotwike kwapangya jumo ywa balo bana, mwambaki kwa nenga.
“Then he will answer them, saying, ‘Most certainly I tell you, because you didn’t do it to one of the least of these, you didn’t do it to me.’
