Matthew 25
1 Then shall the kingdom of heaven be like to ten virgins, who taking their lamps went out to meet the bridegroom and the bride.
Taevariik on nagu kümme neidu, kes võtsid oma lambid kaasa ja läksid peigmehega kohtuma.
2 And five of them were foolish, and five wise.
Viis olid rumalad ja viis targad.
3 But the five foolish, having taken their lamps, did not take oil with them:
Rumalad neiud võtsid oma lambid, kuid ei võtnud kaasa õli,
4 But the wise took oil in their vessels with the lamps.
samal ajal targad neiud võtsid kaasa nii õlinõud kui ka lambid.
5 And the bridegroom tarrying, they all slumbered and slept.
Peigmehe tulek viibis ning kõik neiud jäid uniseks ja uinusid magama.
6 And at midnight there was a cry made: Behold the bridegroom cometh, go ye forth to meet him.
Keskööl kõlas hüüd: „Vaadake, peigmees on kohal! Tulge välja temaga kohtuma!“
7 Then all those virgins arose and trimmed their lamps.
Kõik neiud ärkasid ja kohendasid oma lampide tahti. Rumalad neiud ütlesid tarkadele:
8 And the foolish said to the wise: Give us of your oil, for our lamps are gone out.
„Andke meile veidi oma õli, sest meie lambid kustuvad.“Aga targad neiud vastasid:
9 The wise answered, saying: Lest perhaps there be not enough for us and for you, go ye rather to them that sell, and buy for yourselves.
„Ei, sest muidu ei jaguks sellest ei teile ega meile. Minge poodnike juurde ja ostke endale õli.“
10 Now whilst they went to buy, the bridegroom came: and they that were ready, went in with him to the marriage, and the door was shut.
Sel ajal kui nad läksid õli ostma, jõudis peigmees kohale, ja need, kes olid valmis, läksid koos temaga sisse pulmapeole, ja uks pandi lukku.
11 But at last come also the other virgins, saying: Lord, Lord, open to us.
Teised neiud tulid hiljem. „Isand, isand!“hüüdsid nad. „Ava meile uks!“
12 But he answering said: Amen I say to you, I know you not.
Kuid peigmees vastas: „Ma ütlen teile tõtt: ma ei tunne teid.“
13 Watch ye therefore, because you know not the day nor the hour.
Nii et olge valvsad, sest te ei tea päeva ega tundi.
14 For even as a man going into a far country, called his servants, and delivered to them his goods;
See on nagu mees, kes läks ära reisile. Ta kutsus kokku oma sulased ja usaldas nende kätte oma vara.
15 And to one he gave five talents, and to another two, and to another one, to every one according to his proper ability: and immediately he took his journey.
Ühele sulasele andis ta viis talenti, teisele kaks ja kolmandale ühe, vastavalt nende erinevatele võimetele. Siis ta lahkus.
16 And he that had received the five talents, went his way, and traded with the same, and gained other five.
Viis talenti saanu läks kohe ja investeeris need ärisse ning sai juurde veel viis talenti.
17 And in like manner he that had received the two, gained other two.
Samamoodi sai kaks talenti saanu veel kaks juurde.
18 But he that had received the one, going his way digged into the earth, and hid his lord’s money.
Aga mees, kes oli saanud ühe talendi, läks ja kaevas augu ning peitis oma isanda raha ära.
19 But after a long time the lord of those servants came, and reckoned with them.
Kaua aega hiljem tuli nende sulaste isand tagasi ja õiendas nendega arved.
20 And he that had received the five talents coming, brought other five talents, saying: Lord, thou didst deliver to me five talents, behold I have gained other five over and above.
Viis talenti saanu tuli ja tõi kaasa veel viis talenti. „Isand, “ütles ta, „sa andsid mulle viis talenti. Vaata, ma sain viis talenti kasu.“
21 His lord said to him: Well done, good and faithful servant, because thou hast been faithful over a few things, I will place thee over many things: enter thou into the joy of thy lord.
Isand ütles talle: „Sa oled hästi teinud, sa oled hea ja ustav sulane. Sa tõestasid, et oled usaldusväärne väikestes asjades, nii et ma panen sind nüüd paljude asjade eest vastutama. Ole rõõmus, sest ma olen tõesti sinuga rahul!“
22 And he also that had received the two talents came and said: Lord, thou deliveredst two talents to me: behold I have gained other two.
Tuli ka see, kes oli saanud kaks talenti. „Isand, “ütles ta, „sa andsid mulle kaks talenti. Vaata, ma sain kaks talenti kasu.“
23 His lord said to him: Well done, good and faithful servant: because thou hast been faithful over a few things, I will place thee over many things: enter thou into the joy of thy lord.
Isand ütles talle: „Sa oled hästi teinud, sa oled hea ja ustav sulane. Sa tõestasid, et oled usaldusväärne väikestes asjades, nii et ma panen sind nüüd paljude asjade eest vastutama. Ole rõõmus, sest ma olen tõesti sinuga rahul!“
24 But he that had received the one talent, came and said: Lord, I know that thou art a hard man; thou reapest where thou hast not sown, and gatherest where thou hast not strewed.
Siis tuli ühe talendiga mees. „Isand, “ütles ta, „ma tean, et sa oled karm mees. Sa lõikad sealt, kuhu sa pole külvanud, ja kogud saaki sealt, kuhu sa pole istutanud.
25 And being afraid I went and hid thy talent in the earth: behold here thou hast that which is thine.
Kuna ma kartsin sind, läksin ma ja matsin su talendi maa sisse. Vaata, sa saad tagasi selle, mis sulle kuulub.“
26 And his lord answering, said to him: Wicked and slothful servant, thou knewest that I reap where I sow not, and gather where I have not strewed:
Aga isand vastas talle: „Sina nurjatu ja laisk sulane! Kui sa arvad, et ma lõikan sealt, kuhu ma pole külvanud, ja kogun saaki sealt, kuhu ma pole istutanud,
27 Thou oughtest therefore to have committed my money to the bankers, and at my coming I should have received my own with usury.
siis oleksid pidanud mu hõbeda panka hoiule andma, et ma koju tulles oleksin saanud oma raha intressiga tagasi.
28 Take ye away therefore the talent from him, and give it to him that hath ten talents.
Võtke talent temalt ära ja andke sellele, kellel on kümme talenti.
29 For to every one that hath shall be given, and he shall abound: but from him that hath not, that also which he seemeth to have shall be taken away.
Sest igaühele, kellel on, sellele antakse veel rohkem, ja igaühelt, kellel pole midagi, võetakse ära seegi, mis tal on.
30 And the unprofitable servant cast ye out into the exterior darkness. There shall be weeping and gnashing of teeth.
Nüüd heitke see kasutu sulane välja pimedusse, kus on nutmine ja hammaste kiristamine.“
31 And when the Son of man shall come in his majesty, and all the angels with him, then shall he sit upon the seat of his majesty.
Aga kui inimese Poeg tuleb oma hiilguses ja kõik inglid koos temaga, siis istub ta oma suursugusele troonile.
32 And all nations shall be gathered together before him, and he shall separate them one from another, as the shepherd separateth the sheep from the goats:
Kõik tuuakse tema ette. Ta eraldab nad üksteisest, nagu karjane eraldab lambad kitsedest.
33 And he shall set the sheep on his right hand, but the goats on his left.
Ta paneb lambad oma paremale käele ja kitsed vasakule käele.
34 Then shall the king say to them that shall be on his right hand: Come, ye blessed of my Father, possess you the kingdom prepared for you from the foundation of the world.
Siis ütleb kuningas neile, kes on tema paremal käel: „Tulge siia, mu Isa õnnistatud, ja pärige kuningriik, mis on teile valmistatud maailma algusest peale.
35 For I was hungry, and you gave me to eat; I was thirsty, and you gave me to drink; I was a stranger, and you took me in:
Sest mul oli nälg ja te andsite mulle süüa. Mul oli janu ja te andsite mulle juua. Ma olin võõras ja te kutsusite mu sisse.
36 Naked, and you covered me: sick, and you visited me: I was in prison, and you came to me.
Ma olin alasti ja te riietasite mind. Ma olin haige ja te hoolitsesite minu eest. Ma olin vangis ja te külastasite mind.“
37 Then shall the just answer him, saying: Lord, when did we see thee hungry, and fed thee; thirsty, and gave thee drink?
Siis need, kes on temast paremal, vastavad: „Issand, millal me nägime sind näljasena ja toitsime sind, või janusena ja jootsime sind?
38 And when did we see thee a stranger, and took thee in? or naked, and covered thee?
Millal nägime sind võõrana ja kutsusime sind sisse või alasti ja riietasime sind?
39 Or when did we see thee sick or in prison, and came to thee?
Millal nägime sind haigena või vangis ja külastasime sind?“
40 And the king answering, shall say to them: Amen I say to you, as long as you did it to one of these my least brethren, you did it to me.
Kuningas lausub neile: „Ma ütlen teile tõtt: mida iganes te tegite ühele neist, kes on kõige tähtsusetumad, seda tegite mulle.“
41 Then he shall say to them also that shall be on his left hand: Depart from me, you cursed, into everlasting fire which was prepared for the devil and his angels. (aiōnios g166)
Samuti pöördub ta nende poole, kes on tema vasakul käel, ja ütleb: „Minge minu juurest ära, te hukkamõistetud, igavesse tulle, mis on valmistatud kuradi ja tema inglite jaoks! (aiōnios g166)
42 For I was hungry, and you gave me not to eat: I was thirsty, and you gave me not to drink.
Sest mul oli nälg ja te ei andud mulle midagi süüa. Mul oli janu ja te ei andnud mulle juua.
43 I was a stranger, and you took me not in: naked, and you covered me not: sick and in prison, and you did not visit me.
Ma olin võõras ja te ei kutsunud mind sisse. Ma olin alasti ja te ei riietanud mind. Ma olin haige ja vangis ja te ei külastanud mind.“
44 Then they also shall answer him, saying: Lord, when did we see thee hungry, or thirsty, or a stranger, or naked, or sick, or in prison, and did not minister to thee?
Siis vastavad ka nemad: „Issand, millal me nägime sind näljase või janusena, võõrana või alasti, haigena või vangis, ega hoolitsenud sinu eest?“
45 Then he shall answer them, saying: Amen I say to you, as long as you did it not to one of these least, neither did you do it to me.
Siis kostab ta neile: „Ma ütlen teile tõtt: mida iganes te ei teinud ühele neist, kes on kõige tähtsusetumad, seda ei teinud te mulle.“
