Matthew 25
1 Then will be likened the kingdom of the heavens to ten virgins who having taken the lamps (their own *N+kO) went forth to (meet *N+kO) the bridegroom.
Then shall the kingdom of heaven be likened unto ten virgins, which took their lamps, and went forth to meet the bridegroom.
2 Five now of them were foolish and (the [other] *k) five wise;
And five of them were wise, and five were foolish.
3 (Those [who] *N+kO) (for *no) foolish having taken the lamps (of them *N+kO) not did take with their own oil,
They that were foolish took their lamps, and took no oil with them:
4 but the wise took oil in the vessels (of them *k) with the lamps (their own. *N+kO)
But the wise took oil in their vessels with their lamps.
5 As was tarrying then the bridegroom they became drowsy all and were sleeping.
While the bridegroom tarried, they all slumbered and slept.
6 At middle then of [the] night a cry there was: Behold the bridegroom (comes *k) do go forth to meet him!
And at midnight there was a cry made, Behold, the bridegroom cometh; go ye out to meet him.
7 Then arose all the virgins those and trimmed the lamps (their own. *N+kO)
Then all those virgins arose, and trimmed their lamps.
8 And the foolish to the wise said; do give us of the oil of you, for the lamps of us are going out.
And the foolish said unto the wise, Give us of your oil; for our lamps are gone out.
9 Answered then the wise saying; otherwise otherwise certainly (not even *no) it may suffice for us and you. do go (now *k) rather to those selling and do buy for yourselves.
But the wise answered, saying, Not so; lest there be not enough for us and you: but go ye rather to them that sell, and buy for yourselves.
10 [While] are going away then they to buy came the bridegroom, and those ready went in with him to the wedding feast, and was shut the door.
And while they went to buy, the bridegroom came; and they that were ready went in with him to the marriage: and the door was shut.
11 Afterward then come also the other virgins saying; lord lord, do open to us!
Afterward came also the other virgins, saying, My master, My master, open to us.
12 And answering he said; Amen I say to you; not I do know you.
But he answered and said, Verily I say unto you, I know you not.
13 do watch therefore, for neither do you know the day nor [know] the hour (in who son of man comes. *K)
Watch therefore, for ye know neither the day nor the hour wherein the Son of man cometh.
14 [It is] like for a man going on a journey [who] called [his] own servants and delivered to them the possessions of him.
For the kingdom of heaven is as a man travelling into a far country, who called his own servants, and delivered unto them his goods.
15 And to one indeed he gave five talents, to one however two, to one however one, to each according to the [their] own ability; and he left the region. immediately
And unto one he gave five talents, to another two, and to another one; to every man according to his several ability; and straightway took his journey.
16 Having gone (now *ko) the [one] the five talents having received he traded with them and (he gained *N+kO) more five (talents; *K)
Then he that had received the five talents went and traded with the same, and made them other five talents.
17 Likewise (and *ko) the [one with] the two gained (and he [gained] *k) more two.
And likewise he that had received two, he also gained other two.
18 however one having received having gone away he dug in (in the *k) (ground *N+kO) and (he hid *N+kO) the money of the master of him.
But he that had received one went and digged in the earth, and hid his master's money.
19 After then much time comes the master of the servants those and takes account with them.
After a long time the master of those servants cometh, and reckoneth with them.
20 And having come the [one] the five talents having received he brought to [him] other five talents saying; Master, five talents to me you did deliver; Behold more five talents I gained (upon them. *k)
And so he that had received five talents came and brought other five talents, saying, My master, thou deliveredst unto me five talents: behold, I have gained beside them five talents more.
21 was saying (now *k) to him the master of Him; Well done, servant good and faithful! Over a few things you were faithful, over many things you will I set. do enter into the joy of the master of you!
His master said unto him, Well done, thou good and faithful servant: thou hast been faithful over a few things, I will make thee ruler over many things: enter thou into the joy of thy master.
22 Having come then also the [one] with the two talents (having taken *k) he said; Master, two talents to me you did deliver; Behold more two talents I gained (upon them. *k)
He also that had received two talents came and said, My master, thou deliveredst unto me two talents: behold, I have gained two other talents beside them.
23 was saying to him the master of Him; Well done, servant good and faithful! Over a few things you were faithful, over many things you will I set. do enter into the joy of the master of you!
His master said unto him, Well done, good and faithful servant; thou hast been faithful over a few things, I will make thee ruler over many things: enter thou into the joy of thy master.
24 Having come then also the one talent having received he said; Master, I knew you that hard you are a man reaping where not you did sow and gathering from where not you did scatter;
Then he which had received the one talent came and said, My master, I knew thee that thou art an hard man, reaping where thou hast not sown, and gathering where thou hast not strawed:
25 And having been afraid having gone away I hid the talent of you in the ground; Behold you have what [is] yours.
And I was afraid, and went and hid thy talent in the earth: lo, there thou hast that is thine.
26 answering now the master of him said to him; Wicked servant and lazy! You knew that I reap where not I sowed and I gather from where not I scattered?
His master answered and said unto him, Thou wicked and slothful servant, thou knewest that I reap where I sowed not, and gather where I have not strawed:
27 It was necessary you therefore to put (the coins *N+kO) of mine to the bankers, and having come I myself received then would my own with interest.
Thou oughtest therefore to have put my money to the exchangers, and then at my coming I should have received mine own with usury.
28 do take therefore from him the talent and do give [it] to the [one] having the ten talents.
Take therefore the talent from him, and give it unto him which hath ten talents.
29 For having to everyone will be given and he will have in abundance; (from *k) the [one] however not having, even that which he has will be taken away from him.
For unto every one that hath shall be given, and he shall have abundance: but from him that hath not shall be taken away even that which he hath.
30 And the worthless servant (do cast out *N+kO) into the darkness outer; there will be the weeping and the gnashing of the teeth.
And cast ye the unprofitable servant into outer darkness: there shall be weeping and gnashing of teeth.
31 When then may come the Son of Man in the glory of Him and all the (holy *K) angels with Him, then He will sit upon [the] throne of glory of Him,
When the Son of man shall come in his glory, and all the holy angels with him, then shall he sit upon the throne of his glory:
32 And (they will be gathered *N+kO) before Him all the nations, and He will separate them from one another as the shepherd separates the sheep from the goats,
And before him shall be gathered all nations: and he shall separate them one from another, as a shepherd divideth his sheep from the goats:
33 And He will set indeed the sheep on [the] right hand of Him, however the goats on [the] left.
And he shall set the sheep on his right hand, but the goats on the left.
34 Then will say the King to those on [the] right hand of Him; Come you who [are] blessed of the Father of mine, do inherit the prepared for you kingdom from [the] foundation of [the] world.
Then shall the King say unto them on his right hand, Come, ye blessed of my Father, inherit the kingdom prepared for you from the foundation of the world:
35 I hungered for and you gave Me to eat, I thirsted and you gave to drink me, a stranger I was and you took in Me,
For I was an hungred, and ye gave me meat: I was thirsty, and ye gave me drink: I was a stranger, and ye took me in:
36 naked and you clothed Me, I was sick and you visited Me, in prison I was and you came to Me.
Naked, and ye clothed me: I was sick, and ye visited me: I was in prison, and ye came unto me.
37 Then will answer Him the righteous saying; Lord, when You saw we hungering and fed [You] Or thirsting and gave [You] to drink?
Then shall the righteous answer him, saying, Our master, when saw we thee an hungred, and fed thee? or thirsty, and gave thee drink?
38 When now You saw we a stranger and took [You] in Or naked and clothed [You]?
When saw we thee a stranger, and took thee in? or naked, and clothed thee?
39 When now You saw we (ailing *N+kO) or in prison and came to You?
Or when saw we thee sick, or in prison, and came unto thee?
40 And answering the King will say to them; Amen I say to you; to the extent as much as you did [it] to one of these the brothers of Mine of the least, to Me myself you did [it].
And the King shall answer and say unto them, Verily I say unto you, Inasmuch as ye have done it unto one of the least of these my brethren, ye have done it unto me.
41 Then will He say also to those on [the] left; do depart from Me you who [are] cursed into the fire eternal which prepared for the devil and the angels of him. (aiōnios g166)
Then shall he say also unto them on the left hand, Depart from me, ye cursed, into everlasting fire, prepared for the devil and his angels: (aiōnios g166)
42 I hungered for and nothing you gave to Me to eat, (and *o) I thirsted and nothing You gave to drink Me,
For I was an hungred, and ye gave me no meat: I was thirsty, and ye gave me no drink:
43 a stranger I was and not You took in Me, naked and not you did clothe Me, sick and in prison and not did you visit Me.
I was a stranger, and ye took me not in: naked, and ye clothed me not: sick, and in prison, and ye visited me not.
44 Then will answer (to him *k) also themselves saying; Lord, when You saw we hungering or thirsting or a stranger or naked or sick or in prison and not did minister to You?
Then shall they also answer him, saying, Our master, when saw we thee an hungred, or athirst, or a stranger, or naked, or sick, or in prison, and did not minister unto thee?
45 Then will He answer to them saying; Amen I say to you; to the extent as much as not you did [it] to one of these the least, neither to Me myself did you.
Then shall he answer them, saying, Verily I say unto you, Inasmuch as ye did it not to one of the least of these, ye did it not to me.
