مَتَّى 25
| حِينَئِذٍ يُشَبَّهُ مَلَكُوتُ السَّمَاوَاتِ بِعَشْرِ عَذَارَى أَخَذْنَ مَصَابِيحَهُنَّ وَانْطَلَقْنَ لِمُلاقَاةِ الْعَرِيسِ. | ١ 1 |
"Then will the kingdom of heaven be likened to ten maidens who took their lamps and went out to meet the bridegroom and the bride.
| وَكَانَتْ خَمْسٌ مِنْهُنَّ حَكِيمَاتٍ، وَخَمْسٌ جَاهِلاتٍ. | ٢ 2 |
"And five of them were foolish, and five were wise.
| فَأَخَذَتِ الْجَاهِلاتُ مَصَابِيحَهُنَّ دُونَ زَيْتٍ. | ٣ 3 |
"The foolish took their lamps, but took no oil with them;
| وَأَمَّا الْحَكِيمَاتُ، فَأَخَذْنَ مَعَ مَصَابِيحِهِنَّ زَيْتاً وَضَعْنَهُ فِي أَوْعِيَةٍ. | ٤ 4 |
"but the wise took oil in their flasks with their lamps.
| وَإِذْ أَبْطَأَ الْعَرِيسُ، نَعَسْنَ جَمِيعاً وَنِمْنَ. | ٥ 5 |
"Now because the bridegroom tarried, they all fell to nodding and went on sleeping.
| وَفِي مُنْتَصَفِ اللَّيْلِ، دَوَّى الْهُتَافُ: هَا هُوَ الْعَرِيسُ آتٍ؛ فَانْطَلِقْنَ لِمُلاقَاتِهِ! | ٦ 6 |
"But at midnight there arose a cry, "‘Behold, the bridegroom! Go out to meet him!’
| فَنَهَضَتِ الْعَذَارَى جَمِيعاً وَجَهَّزْنَ مَصَابِيحَهُنَّ. | ٧ 7 |
"Then all those maidens rose and trimmed their lamps;
| وَقَالَتِ الْجَاهِلاتُ لِلْحَكِيمَاتِ: أَعْطِينَنَا بَعْضَ الزَّيْتِ مِنْ عِنْدِكُنَّ، فَإِنَّ مَصَابِيحَنَا تَنْطَفِئُ! | ٨ 8 |
"and the foolish said to the wise, "‘Give us some of your oil, for our lamps are going out.’
| فَأَجَابَتِ الْحَكِيمَاتُ: رُبَّمَا لَا يَكْفِي لَنَا وَلَكُنَّ. فَاذْهَبْنَ بِالأَحْرَى إِلَى بَائِعِي الزَّيْتِ وَاشْتَرِينَ لَكُنَّ! | ٩ 9 |
"‘Not so, answered the wise, ‘for there may not be enough for you and for us. Go to the shops, rather, and buy some for yourselves.’
| وَبَيْنَمَا الْعَذَارَى الْجَاهِلاتُ ذَاهِبَاتٌ لِلشِّرَاءِ، وَصَلَ الْعَرِيسُ، فَدَخَلَتِ الْعَذَارَى الْمُسْتَعِدَّاتُ مَعَهُ إِلَى قَاعَةِ الْعُرْسِ، وَأُغْلِقَ الْبَابُ. | ١٠ 10 |
"And while they were going away to buy, the bridegroom came; and those who were ready went in with him to the wedding-feast. And the door was shut.
| وَبَعْدَ حِينٍ، رَجَعَتِ الْعَذَارَى الأُخْرَيَاتُ، وَقُلْنَ: يَا سَيِّدُ، يَا سَيِّدُ، افْتَحْ لَنَا! | ١١ 11 |
"Afterwards the other maidens came and cried, "‘Lord, Lord, open unto us!’
| فَأَجَابَ الْعَرِيسُ: الْحَقَّ أَقُولُ لَكُنَّ: إِنِّي لَا أَعْرِفُكُنَّ! | ١٢ 12 |
"‘In solemn truth I tell you,’ he replied, ‘I know you not.’
| فَاسْهَرُوا إِذَنْ، لأَنَّكُمْ لَا تَعْرِفُونَ الْيَوْمَ وَلا السَّاعَةَ! | ١٣ 13 |
"Be watchful then, for you know neither the day nor the hour.
| فَذَلِكَ أَشْبَهُ بِإِنْسَانٍ مُسَافِرٍ، اسْتَدْعَى عَبِيدَهُ وَسَلَّمَهُمْ أَمْوَالَهُ، | ١٤ 14 |
"For it is like a man going into another country, who summoned his slaves, and committed his property to their care.
| فَأَعْطَى وَاحِداً مِنْهُمْ خَمْسَ وَزْنَاتٍ (مِنَ الْفِضَّةِ)، وَأَعْطَى آخَرَ وَزْنَتَيْنِ، وَأَعْطَى الثَّالِثَ وَزْنَةً وَاحِدَةً، كُلَّ وَاحِدٍ عَلَى قَدْرِ طَاقَتِهِ، ثُمَّ سَافَرَ. | ١٥ 15 |
"To one he gave five talents, to another two, and to another, one - to each according to his individual ability - and then set out on his travels.
| وَفِي الْحَالِ مَضَى الَّذِي أَخَذَ الْوَزْنَاتِ الْخَمْسَ وَتَاجَرَ بِها، فَرَبِحَ خَمْسَ وَزْنَاتٍ أُخْرَى. | ١٦ 16 |
"At once the man who had received the five talents went out and traded with them, and made five talents more.
| وَعَمِلَ مِثْلَهُ الَّذِي أَخَذَ الوَزْنَتَيْنِ، فَرَبِحَ وَزْنَتَيْنِ أُخْرَيَيْنِ. | ١٧ 17 |
"In the same way the one who got two talents made another two.
| وَلَكِنَّ الَّذِي أَخَذَ الْوَزْنَةَ الْوَاحِدَةَ، مَضَى وَحَفَرَ حُفْرَةً فِي الأَرْضِ وَدَفَنَ مَالَ سَيِّدِهِ. | ١٨ 18 |
"But he who had received the one talent went off, and dug a hole in the ground, and hid his master’s money.
| وَبَعْدَ مُدَّةٍ طَوِيلَةٍ، رَجَعَ سَيِّدُ أُولئِكَ الْعَبِيدِ وَاسْتَدْعَاهُمْ لِيُحَاسِبَهُمْ. | ١٩ 19 |
"After a long time the master of those slaves came, and demanded a reckoning with them.
| فَجَاءَهُ الَّذِي أَخَذَ الْوَزْنَاتِ الْخَمْسَ، وَقَدَّمَ الْوَزْنَاتِ الْخَمْسَ الأُخْرَى، وَقَالَ: يَا سَيِّدُ، أَنْتَ سَلَّمْتَنِي خَمْسَ وَزْنَاتٍ، فَهَذِهِ خَمْسُ وَزْنَاتٍ غَيْرُهَا رَبِحْتُهَا! | ٢٠ 20 |
"The man who had received the five talents came, bringing five more, and said. "‘Master, five talents you entrusted to me; see, I have gained five more.’
| فَقَالَ لَهُ سَيِّدُهُ: حَسَناً فَعَلْتَ أَيُّهَا الْعَبْدُ الصَّالِحُ وَالأَمِينُ! كُنْتَ أَمِيناً عَلَى الْقَلِيلِ، فَسَأُقِيمُكَ عَلَى الْكَثِيرِ. اُدْخُلْ إِلَى فَرَحِ سَيِّدِكَ! | ٢١ 21 |
"‘Well done, good and faithful slave,’ replied his master; ‘You have been faithful over many things. Enter into your master’s joy.’
| ثُمَّ جَاءَهُ أَيْضاً الَّذِي أَخَذَ الْوَزْنَتَيْنِ وَقَالَ: يَا سَيِّدُ أَنْتَ سَلَّمْتَنِي وَزْنَتَيْنِ، فَهَاتَانِ وَزْنَتَانِ غَيْرُهُمَا رَبِحْتُهُمَا! | ٢٢ 22 |
"The second, who had received the two talents, came up and said. "‘Master, it was two talents that you entrusted to me; see, I have gained two more.’
| فَقَالَ لَهُ سَيِّدُهُ: حَسَناً فَعَلْتَ أَيُّهَا الْعَبْدُ الصَّالِحُ وَالأَمِينُ! كُنْتَ أَمِيناً عَلَى الْقَلِيلِ، فَسَأُقِيمُكَ عَلَى الْكَثِيرِ. اُدْخُلْ إِلَى فَرَحِ سَيِّدِكَ! | ٢٣ 23 |
"‘Well done, good and faithful slave,’ his master replied, ‘You have been faithful over many things; enter into your master’s joy.’
| ثُمَّ جَاءَهُ أَيْضاً الَّذِي أَخَذَ الْوَزْنَةَ الْوَاحِدَةَ، وَقَالَ: يَا سَيِّدُ، عَرَفْتُكَ رَجُلاً قَاسِياً، تَحْصُدُ مِنْ حَيْثُ لَمْ تَزْرَعْ، وَتَجْمَعُ مِنْ حَيْثُ لَمْ تَبْذُرْ، | ٢٤ 24 |
"Then the man who had received the one talent came up and said. "‘Master, I knew you were a hard man, reaping where you had not sown, and gathering where you had not scattered;
| فَخِفْتُ، فَذَهَبْتُ وَدَفَنْتَ وَزْنَتَكَ فِي الأَرْضِ. فَهَذَا هُوَ مَالُكَ! | ٢٥ 25 |
"so I was afraid; I went away and buried your talent in the earth. There, you have what belongs to you!’
| فَأَجَابَهُ سَيِّدُهُ: أَيُّهَا الْعَبْدُ الشِّرِّيرُ الْكَسُولُ! عَرَفْتَ أَنِّي أَحْصُدُ مِنْ حَيْثُ لَمْ أَزْرَعْ، وَأَجْمَعُ مِنْ حَيْثُ لَمْ أَبْذُرْ، | ٢٦ 26 |
"‘You wicked and lazy slave,’ said his master. ‘You say you knew that I reap where I have not sowed, and gather where I have not scattered?
| فَكَانَ يَحْسُنُ بِكَ أَنْ تُوْدِعَ مَالِي عِنْدَ الصَّيَارِفَةِ لِكَيْ أَسْتَرِدَّهُ لَدَى عَوْدَتِي مَعَ فَائِدَتِهِ! | ٢٧ 27 |
"‘Then you ought to have deposited my money with the bankers, and at my coming I should have received back my property with interest.
| ثُمَّ قَالَ لِعَبِيدِهِ: خُذُوا مِنْهُ الْوَزْنَةَ، وَأَعْطُوهَا لِصَاحِبِ الْوَزْنَاتِ الْعَشْرِ: | ٢٨ 28 |
"‘So take away the talent from him, and give it to the man who has ten talents.
| فَإِنَّ كُلَّ مَنْ عِنْدَهُ، يُعْطَى الْمَزِيدَ فَيَفِيضُ؛ وَمَنْ لَيْسَ عِنْدَهُ، فَحَتَّى الَّذِي عِنْدَهُ يُنْتَزَعُ مِنْهُ. | ٢٩ 29 |
"‘(For to every one who has, it shall be given, and he shall have abundance; but from him who has not shall be taken away even what he has.)
| أَمَّا هَذَا الْعَبْدُ الَّذِي لَا نَفْعَ مِنْهُ، فَاطْرَحُوهُ فِي الظُّلْمَةِ الْخَارِجِيَّةِ، هُنَاكَ يَكُونُ البُكَاءُ وَصَرِيرُ الأَسْنَانِ! | ٣٠ 30 |
"‘But cast out the worthless slave into the outer darkness; there will be the weeping and the gnashing of teeth.’
| وَعِنْدَمَا يَعُودُ ابْنُ الإِنْسَانِ فِي مَجْدِهِ وَمَعَهُ جَمِيعُ مَلائِكَتِهِ، فَإِنَّهُ يَجْلِسُ عَلَى عَرْشِ مَجْدِهِ، | ٣١ 31 |
"But when the Son of man comes in his glory, and all the angels with him, then will he take his seat on the throne of his glory;
| وَتَجْتَمِعُ أَمَامَهُ الشُّعُوبُ كُلُّهَا، فَيَفْصِلُ بَعْضَهُمْ عَنْ بَعْضٍ كَمَا يَفْصِلُ الرَّاعِي الْغَنَمَ عَنِ الْمِعَازِ، | ٣٢ 32 |
"and all the nations will be gathered in his presence. And he will separate them one from another, as a shepherd divides his sheep from the goats;
| فَيُوقِفُ الْغَنَمَ عَنْ يَمِينِهِ، وَالْمِعَازِ عَنْ يَسَارِهِ؛ | ٣٣ 33 |
"and he will place the sheep on his right hand, and the goats on his left.
| ثُمَّ يَقُولُ الْمَلِكُ لِلَّذِينَ عَنْ يَمِينِهِ: تَعَالَوْا يَا مَنْ بَارَكَهُمْ أَبِي، رِثُوا الْمَلَكُوتَ الَّذِي أُعِدَّ لَكُمْ مُنْذُ إِنْشَاءِ الْعَالَمِ: | ٣٤ 34 |
"Then he, the King will say to those on his right hand. "‘Come, my Father’s blessed ones, inherit the kingdom prepared for you from the foundation of the world.
| لأَنِّي جُعْتُ فَأَطْعَمْتُمُونِي، عَطِشْتُ فَسَقَيْتُمُونِي، كُنْتُ غَرِيباً فَآوَيْتُمُونِي، | ٣٥ 35 |
"‘For I was hungry, and you gave me food; I was thirsty, and you gave me drink; I was a stranger, and you took me in;
| عُرْيَاناً فَكَسَوْتُمُونِي، مَرِيضاً فَزُرْتُمُونِي، سَجِيناً فَأَتَيْتُمْ إِلَيَّ! | ٣٦ 36 |
"‘I was naked, and you clothed me; I was sick, and you visited me; I was in prison, and you came to see me.’
| فَيَرُدُّ الصَّالِحونَ قَائِلِينَ: يَا رَبُّ، مَتَى رَأَيْنَاكَ جَائِعاً فَأَطْعَمْنَاكَ، أَوْ عَطْشَاناً فَسَقَيْنَاكَ؟ | ٣٧ 37 |
"Then shall the righteous answer him, saying. ‘Master, when did we see you hungry and feed you; or thirsty and give you drink?
| وَمَتَى رَأَيْنَاكَ غَرِيباً فَآوَيْنَاكَ، أَوْ عُرْيَاناً فَكَسَوْنَاكَ؟ | ٣٨ 38 |
"‘When did we see you a stranger and take you in; or naked and clothe you?
| وَمَتَى رَأَيْنَاكَ مَرِيضاً أَوْ سَجِيناً فَزُرْنَاكَ؟ | ٣٩ 39 |
"‘When did we see you sick or in prison, and come to see you?’
| فَيُجِيبُهُمُ الْمَلِكُ: الْحَقَّ أَقُولُ لَكُمْ: بِمَا أَنَّكُمْ فَعَلْتُمْ ذَلِكَ بِأَحَدِ إِخْوَتِي هَؤُلاءِ الصِّغَارِ، فَبِي فَعَلْتُمْ! | ٤٠ 40 |
"‘In solemn truth I tell you,’ the King will answer them, ‘that inasmuch as you have done it unto one of the least of these, my brothers, you have done it unto me.’
| ثُمَّ يَقُولُ لِلَّذِينَ عَنْ يَسَارِهِ: ابْتَعِدُوا عَنِّي يَا مَلاعِينُ إِلَى النَّارِ الأَبَدِيَّةِ الْمُعَدَّةِ لإِبْلِيسَ وَأَعْوَانِهِ! (aiōnios g166) | ٤١ 41 |
"Then he will say to those also at his left hand. ‘Depart from me, accursed ones, into the eternal fire prepared for the devil and his angels; (aiōnios g166)
| لأَنِّي جُعْتُ فَلَمْ تُطْعِمُونِي، وَعَطِشْتُ فَلَمْ تَسْقُونِي، | ٤٢ 42 |
"for I was hungry, and you gave me no food; I was thirsty, and you gave me no drink;
| كُنْتُ غَرِيباً فَلَمْ تَأْوُونِي، عُرْيَاناً فَلَمْ تَكْسُونِي، مَرِيضاً وَسَجِيناً فَلَمْ تَزُورُونِي! | ٤٣ 43 |
"I was a stranger, and you took me not in; naked, and you clothed me not; sick, or in prison, and you visited me not.’
| فَيَرُدُّ هَؤُلاءِ أَيْضاً قَائِلِينَ: يَا رَبُّ، مَتَى رَأَيْنَاكَ جَائِعاً أَوْ عَطْشَاناً أَوْ غَرِيباً أَوْ عُرْيَاناً أَوْ مَرِيضاً أَوْ سَجِيناً، وَلَمْ نَخْدِمْكَ؟ | ٤٤ 44 |
"Then will they also answer, ‘Master, when did we ever see you hungry, or thirsty, or a stranger, or naked, or sick, or in prison, and did not minister to you?’
| فَيُجِيبُهُمْ: الْحَقَّ أَقُولُ لَكُمْ: بِمَا أَنَّكُمْ لَمْ تَفْعَلُوا ذَلِكَ بِأَحَدِ إِخْوَتِي هَؤُلاءِ الصِّغَارِ، فَبِي لَمْ تَفْعَلُوا! | ٤٥ 45 |
"But he will reply, ‘In solemn truth I tell you that inasmuch as you did not do it unto one of these least, you did not do it unto me.’
