Matthew 25
1 “Then the kingdom of heaven will be like ten bridesmaids who took their lamps and went out to meet the groom.
»Takrat bo nebeško kraljestvo podobno desetim devicam, ki so vzele svoje svetilke in šle, da srečajo ženina.
2 Five of them were foolish, and five were prudent.
In pet izmed njih je bilo modrih, pet pa je bilo nespametnih.
3 The foolish ones took their lamps, but took no oil with them;
Te, ki so bile nespametne, so vzele svoje svetilke, niso pa z njimi vzele olja,
4 while the prudent ones, besides taking their lamps, took oil in their jars.
toda modre so s svojimi svetilkami v svojih posodah vzele olje.
5 As the groom was late in coming, they all became drowsy, and slept.
Medtem ko se je ženin mudil, so vse podremale in zaspale.
6 But at midnight a shout was raised – ‘The groom is coming! Come out to meet him!’
Ob polnoči pa je nastalo vpitje: ›Glejte, ženin prihaja. Pojdite ven, da ga srečate.‹
7 Then all the bridesmaids woke up and trimmed their lamps,
Tedaj so vse te device vstale in očistile svoje svetilke.
8 and the foolish said to the prudent ‘Give us some of your oil; our lamps are going out.’
In nespametne so rekle modrim: ›Dajte nam od svojega olja, kajti naše svetilke so ugasnile.‹
9 But the prudent ones answered ‘No, There may not be enough for you and for us. Go instead to those who sell it, and buy for yourselves.’
Toda modre so odgovorile, rekoč: ›Ne tako, da ne bi bilo premalo za nas in vas, toda pojdite raje k tem, ki prodajajo in si kupite zase.‹
10 But while they were on their way to buy it, the groom came; and the bridesmaids who were ready went in with him to the banquet, and the door was shut.
Medtem ko so odšle kupovat, pa je prišel ženin, in tiste, ki so bile pripravljene, so vstopile z njim v zakon in vrata so se zaprla.
11 Afterward the other bridesmaids came. ‘Sir, Sir,’ they said, ‘open the door to us!’
Kasneje so prišle tudi druge device, rekoč: ›Gospod, Gospod, odpri nam.‹
12 But the groom answered ‘I tell you, I do not know you.’
Toda odgovoril je in rekel: ›Resnično, povem vam: ›Ne poznam vas.‹‹
13 Therefore watch, since you know neither the day nor the hour.
Stražite torej, kajti ne veste niti dneva niti ure, v kateri prihaja Sin človekov.
14 “For it is as though a man, going on his travels, called his servants, and gave his property into their charge.
Kajti nebeško kraljestvo je kakor človek, ki potuje v daljno deželo, ki je sklical svoje lastne služabnike ter jim izročil svoje dobrine.
15 He gave five bags of gold to one, two to another, and one bag to a third, in proportion to the ability of each. Then he set out on his travels.
In enemu je dal pet talentov, drugemu dva in naslednjemu enega; vsakemu človeku glede na njegove razne sposobnosti; in nemudoma je odšel na svojo pot.
16 The servant who had received the five bags of gold went at once and traded with it, and made another five bags.
Potem je tisti, ki je prejel pet talentov, šel in s temi trgoval in tem prislužil še pet drugih talentov.
17 So, too, the servant who had received the two bags of gold made another two bags.
In podobno je tisti, ki je prejel dva, prav tako pridobil še dva druga.
18 But the servant who had received the one bag went and dug a hole in the ground, and hid his master’s money.
Toda tisti, ki je prejel enega, je šel in kopál v zemljo in skril denar svojega gospodarja.
19 After a long time the master of those servants returned, and settled accounts with them.
Po dolgem času pride gospodar teh služabnikov in z njimi poračuna.
20 The servant who had received the five bags of gold came up and brought five bags more. ‘Sir,’ he said, ‘you entrusted me with five bags of gold; look, I have made another five bags!’
In tako je tisti, ki je prejel pet talentov, prišel in prinesel pet drugih talentov, rekoč: ›Gospodar, izročil si mi pet talentov. Glej, poleg teh sem pridobil še pet talentov.‹
21 ‘Well done, good, trustworthy servant!’ said his master. ‘You have been trustworthy with a small sum; now I will place a large one in your hands; come and share your master’s joy!’
Njegov gospodar mu je rekel: ›Dobro narejeno, ti dobri in zvesti služabnik. Zvest si bil nad malo stvarmi, naredil te bom za vladarja nad mnogimi stvarmi; vstopi v radost svojega gospodarja.‹
22 Then the one who had received the two bags of gold came up and said ‘Sir, you entrusted me with two bags pounds; look, I have made another two!’
Tudi tisti, ki je prejel dva talenta, je prišel in rekel: ›Gospodar, izročil si mi dva talenta; glej, poleg teh sem pridobil še dva druga talenta.‹
23 ‘Well done, good, trustworthy servant!’ said his master. ‘You have been trustworthy with a small sum; now I will place a large one in your hands; come and share your master’s joy!’
Njegov gospodar mu je rekel: ›Dobro narejeno, dobri in zvesti služabnik. Zvest si bil nad malo stvarmi, naredil te bom za vladarja nad mnogimi stvarmi; vstopi v radost svojega gospodarja.‹
24 The man who had received the single bag of gold came up, too, and said ‘Sir, I knew that you were a hard man; you reap where you have not sown, and gather up where you have not winnowed;
Potem je prišel tisti, ki je prejel en talent in rekel: ›Gospodar, poznal sem te, da si trd človek, žanješ, kjer nisi sejal in zbiraš, kjer nisi nastlal,
25 and, in my fear, I went and hid your money in the ground; look, here is what belongs to you!’
in sem se bal in sem šel ter tvoj talent skril v zemljo. Glej tukaj imaš, kar je tvojega.‹
26 ‘You lazy, worthless servant!’ was his master’s reply. ‘You knew that I reap where I have not sown, and gather up where I have not winnowed?
Njegov gospodar je odgovoril in mu rekel: ›Ti zlobni in leni služabnik, vedel si, da žanjem, kjer nisem sejal in zbiram tam, kjer nisem nastlal;
27 Then you ought to have placed my money in the hands of bankers, and I, on my return, should have received my money, with interest.
dolžan si bil torej dati moj denar menjalcem in tedaj, ob mojem prihodu, bi jaz svojo lastnino prejel z obrestmi.‹
28 Therefore,’ he continued, ‘take away from him the one bag of gold, and give it to the one who has the ten bags.
Vzemite mu torej talent in ga dajte temu, ki ima deset talentov.
29 For, to him who has, more will be given, and he will have abundance; but, as for him who has nothing, even what he has will be taken away from him.
Kajti vsak, kdor ima, mu bo dano in bo imel obilje, toda od tistega, ki nima, bo vzeto proč celó to, kar ima.
30 As for the useless servant, put him out into the darkness outside, where there will be weeping and grinding of teeth.’
Nekoristnega služabnika pa vrzite v zunanjo temo; tam bo jokanje in škripanje z zobmi.‹
31 “When the Son of Man has come in his glory and all the angels with him, then he will take his seat on his throne of glory;
Ko bo prišel Sin človekov v svoji slavi in vsi sveti angeli z njim, potem bo sédel na prestol svoje slave,
32 and all the nations will be gathered before him, and he will separate the people – just as a shepherd separates sheep from goats –
in pred njim bodo zbrani vsi narodi, in oddvojil jih bo ene od drugih, kakor pastir ločuje svoje ovce od koz;
33 placing the sheep on his right hand, and the goats on his left.
in ovce bo postavil na svojo desno roko, toda koze na levo.
34 Then the king will say to those on his right ‘Come, you who are blessed by my Father, enter into possession of the kingdom prepared for you ever since the beginning of the world.
Tedaj bo Kralj rekel tistim na svoji desnici: ›Pridite, blagoslovljeni od mojega Očeta, podedujte kraljestvo, za vas pripravljeno od ustanovitve sveta, ‹
35 For, when I was hungry, you gave me food; when I was thirsty, you gave me drink; when I was a stranger, you took me to your homes;
kajti bil sem lačen in ste mi dali obrok; bil sem žejen in ste mi dali piti; bil sem tujec in ste me sprejeli;
36 when I was naked, you clothed me; when I fell ill, you visited me; and when I was in prison, you came to me.’
nag in ste me oblekli; bil sem bolan in ste me obiskali; bil sem v ječi in ste prišli k meni.‹
37 Then the righteous will answer ‘Lord, when did we see you hungry, and feed you? Or thirsty, and give you a drink?
Tedaj mu bodo pravični odgovorili, rekoč: ›Gospodar, kdaj smo te videli lačnega in te nahranili ali žejnega in [ti] dali piti?
38 When did we see you a stranger, and take you to our homes? Or naked, and clothe you?
Kdaj smo te videli tujca in te sprejeli? Ali nagega in te oblekli?
39 When did we see you ill, or in prison, and come to you?’
Ali kdaj smo te videli bolnega ali v ječi in prišli k tebi?‹
40 And the king will reply ‘I tell you, as often as you did it to one of these my brothers or sisters, however unimportant they seemed, you did it to me.’
In kralj jim bo odgovoril in rekel: ›Resnično, povem vam: ›V kolikor ste to storili enemu najmanjšemu izmed teh mojih bratov, ste to storili meni.‹‹
41 Then he will say to those on his left ‘Go from my presence, accursed, into the permanent fire which has been prepared for the devil and his angels. (aiōnios g166)
Tedaj bo prav tako rekel tem na levici: ›Odidite od mene, vi prekleti, v večni ogenj, pripravljen za hudiča in njegove angele; (aiōnios g166)
42 For, when I was hungry, you gave me no food; when I was thirsty, you gave me no drink;
kajti lačen sem bil, pa mi niste dali obroka; žejen sem bil, pa mi niste dali piti;
43 when I was a stranger, you did not take me to your homes; when I was naked, you did not clothe me; and, when I was ill and in prison, you did not visit me.’
tujec sem bil, pa me niste sprejeli; nag in me niste oblekli; bolan in v ječi, pa me niste obiskali.‹
44 Then they, in their turn, will answer ‘Lord, when did we see you hungry, or thirsty, or a stranger, or naked, or ill, or in prison, and did not supply your wants?’
Tedaj mu bodo tudi oni odgovorili, rekoč: ›Gospodar, kdaj smo te videli lačnega ali žejnega ali tujca ali nagega ali bolnega ali v ječi in ti nismo postregli?‹
45 And then he will reply ‘I tell you, as often as you failed to do it to one of these, however unimportant, you failed to do it to me.’
Tedaj jim bo odgovoril, rekoč: ›Resnično, povem vam: ›V kolikor tega niste storili enemu izmed teh najmanjših, tega niste storili meni.‹‹
