< Matthai 25 >
1 Te phoeiah vaan ram tah oila parha neh vai uh. Te rhoek loh amamih kah hmaiim te a khuen tih yulokung doenah la cet uh.
Then shall the kingdom of heaven be likened unto ten virgins, which took their lamps, and went forth to meet the bridegroom.
2 Amih khuikah panga tah hlang ang la om uh tih panga tah cueih.
And five of them were foolish, and five were wise.
3 Aka ang rhoek loh amamih kah hmaiim te a khuen uh dae situi te amamih taengah khuen uh pawh.
For the foolish, when they took their lamps, took no oil with them:
4 Aka cueih rhoek tah amamih kah hmaiim te palang dongkah situi neh a khuen uh.
but the wise took oil in their vessels with their lamps.
5 Yulokung te a di dongah boeih ngam uh tih ip uh.
Now while the bridegroom tarried, they all slumbered and slept.
6 Khoyin boengli atah, 'Yulokung ke, Amah doe hamla cet uh laeh,’ tila tamlung a soeh.
But at midnight there is a cry, Behold, the bridegroom! Come ye forth to meet him.
7 Te vaengah oila rhoek tah boeih thoo uh tih a hmaiim te a tok uh.
Then all those virgins arose, and trimmed their lamps.
8 Aka ang rhoek loh aka cueih rhoek taengah, 'Nangmih kah situi te kaimih m'pae uh laem, kaimih kah hmaiim tah thi pawn ni,’ a ti uh.
And the foolish said unto the wise, Give us of your oil; for our lamps are going out.
9 Tedae aka cueih loh a doo uh tih, 'Te koinih nangmih ham neh kaimih ham rhoeh voel mahpawh, aka yoi rhoek taengah lat cet uh lamtah namamih ham lai uh,’ a ti nah.
But the wise answered, saying, Peradventure there will not be enough for us and you: go ye rather to them that sell, and buy for yourselves.
10 Lai hamla a caeh uh vaengah yulokung tah ha pawk. Te dongah aka sikim rhoek tah yulueinah khuiah amah neh kun uh tih thohka te a khaih.
And while they went away to buy, the bridegroom came; and they that were ready went in with him to the marriage feast: and the door was shut.
11 A tloe oila rhoek tah hnukkhueng la pawk uh van tih, “Boeipa, boeipa, kaimih ham khaw ong dae,” a ti uh.
Afterward come also the other virgins, saying, Lord, Lord, open to us.
12 Tedae a doo tih, “Nangmih taengah rhep kan thui nangmih te kan ming moenih,” a ti nah.
But he answered and said, Verily I say unto you, I know you not.
13 Te dongah hak uh laeh, a tue neh khohnin te na ming uh moenih.
Watch therefore, for ye know not the day nor the hour.
14 Aka yiin ham hlang loh a sal rhoek te a khue tih a khuehtawn te amih taengah a tloeng pah.
For [it is] as [when] a man, going into another country, called his own servants, and delivered unto them his goods.
15 Te phoeiah amamih kah a thaomnah tarhing la pakhat te talen panga, pakhat te panit, pakhat te pakhat rhip a paek tih yiin.
And unto one he gave five talents, to another two, to another one; to each according to his several ability; and he went on his journey.
16 Talen panga aka dang tah tlek cet tih te rhoek nen te a saii dongah a tloe panga a dang thil.
Straightway he that received the five talents went and traded with them, and made other five talents.
17 Panit aka dang long khaw a tloe panit a dang thil tangloeng.
In like manner he also that [received] the two gained other two.
18 Tedae pakhat aka dang tah cet tih diklai a too. Te phoeiah a boeipa kah tangka te a thuh.
But he that received the one went away and digged in the earth, and hid his lord’s money.
19 A tue a sen phoeiah boeipa loh sal rhoek te a paan tih amih taengah bitat te a soepsoei.
Now after a long time the lord of those servants cometh, and maketh a reckoning with them.
20 Te vaengah talen panga aka dang loh talen panga han khuen thil tih a paan. Te phoeiah, “Boeipa, Kai he talen panga nan paek tih talen panga ka dang thil he,” a ti nah.
And he that received the five talents came and brought other five talents, saying, Lord, thou deliveredst unto me five talents: lo, I have gained other five talents.
21 A boeipa loh anih te, “Then, uepom neh sal then a yool soah uepom la na om dongah nang tah a yet soah khaw kang khueh pai eh. Na boeipa kah omngaihnah khuiah kun van,” a ti nah.
His lord said unto him, Well done, good and faithful servant: thou hast been faithful over a few things, I will set thee over many things: enter thou into the joy of thy lord.
22 Talen panit long khaw a paan tih, “Boeipa kai taengah talen panit nan paek tih talen panit ka dang thil he,” a ti nah.
And he also that [received] the two talents came and said, Lord, thou deliveredst unto me two talents: lo, I have gained other two talents.
23 A boeipa loh anih te, “Then, uepom neh sal then a yool soah uepom la na om tih nang te a yet soah kang khueh ni. Na boeipa kah omngaihnah khuiah kun van,” a ti nah.
His lord said unto him, Well done, good and faithful servant; thou hast been faithful over a few things, I will set thee over many things: enter thou into the joy of thy lord.
24 Talen pakhat aka dang long khaw a paan tih, “Boeipa, nang he mangkhak hlang la na om, na tuh pawt nah ah te na ah tih na haeh pawt nah ah na yoep te ka ming.
And he also that had received the one talent came and said, Lord, I knew thee that thou art a hard man, reaping where thou didst not sow, and gathering where thou didst not scatter:
25 Ka rhih dongah ka ceah neh nang kah talen te lai ah ka thuh. Na khueh te om ta he,” a ti nah.
and I was afraid, and went away and hid thy talent in the earth: lo, thou hast thine own.
26 Tedae a boeipa loh anih te a doo tih, 'Sal boethae neh yaikat aw, ka tuh pawt ah ka ah tih ka haeh pawt ah ka coi te na ming.
But his lord answered and said unto him, Thou wicked and slothful servant, thou knewest that I reap where I sowed not, and gather where I did not scatter;
27 Namah khaw a kuek ta, kai kah tangka te tangkapu taengah na khueh ham om. Te daengah man kai ka pawk vaengah a casai neh ka tangka te ka dang ve.
thou oughtest therefore to have put my money to the bankers, and at my coming I should have received back mine own with interest.
28 Te dongah anih taengkah talen te lo uh lamtah talen parha aka khueh te pae uh.
Take ye away therefore the talent from him, and give it unto him that hath the ten talents.
29 Aka khueh boeih te a paek thil vetih a coih pah ni. Tedae aka khueh pawt te a khueh duen pataeng te a taeng lamkah loh a loh pa ni.
For unto every one that hath shall be given, and he shall have abundance: but from him that hath not, even that which he hath shall be taken away.
30 Te dongah sal hlangkhue hlangvaih te poengben kah yinnah khuila voei uh, te ah te rhah neh no rhuengnah neh om ni.
And cast ye out the unprofitable servant into the outer darkness: there shall be the weeping and gnashing of teeth.
31 Hlang Capa tah amah kah thangpomnah dongah a taengkah puencawn rhoek boeih neh ha pawk vetih a thangpomnah ngolkhoel dongah ngol ni.
But when the Son of man shall come in his glory, and all the angels with him, then shall he sit on the throne of his glory:
32 Te vaengah namtom boeih tah amah hmaiah a coi vetih tudawn loh maae taeng lamkah tu te a hoep bangla amih te rhip a hoep ni.
and before him shall be gathered all the nations: and he shall separate them one from another, as the shepherd separateth the sheep from the goats:
33 Tu rhoek tah amah kah bantang ah, maae rhoek te banvoei ah a pai sak ni.
and he shall set the sheep on his right hand, but the goats on the left.
34 Te vaengah manghai loh a bantang ben kah rhoek te, “Halo, a pa kah a uem rhoek, Diklai a tongnah lamloh nangmih ham a rhoekbah ram te pang uh.
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 Ka pong vaengah caak ham te kai nan paek uh, ka halh vaengah kai nan tul uh. Yinlai la ka om vaengah kai nan khue uh.
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 Ka pumtling vaengah kai nan khuk uh. Ka tlohtat vaengah kai nan hip ah ka om vaengah kai taeng la na pawk uh,’ a ti nah ni.
naked, and ye clothed me: I was sick, and ye visited me: I was in prison, and ye came unto me.
37 Te vaengah aka dueng rhoek loh, “Boeipa me vaengah lae na bungpong te ka hmuh uh tih kang khut uh, na halh vaengah kan tul uh?
Then shall the righteous answer him, saying, Lord, when saw we thee an hungred, and fed thee? or athirst, and gave thee drink?
38 Me vaengah nim nang te yinlai la kam hmuh uh tih kang khue uh, na pumtling tih kang khuk uh?
And when saw we thee a stranger, and took thee in? or naked, and clothed thee?
39 Me vaengah lae na tlohtat te kan hmuh uh tih thongim ah khaw nang taengla ka pawk uh,’ a ti uh ni.
And when saw we thee sick, or in prison, and came unto thee?
40 Te vaengah manghai loh amih te a doo vetih, 'Nangmih taengah rhep ka thui, ka manuca rhoek khuiah a yit koek pakhat taengah na saii uh te tah kai taengah ni na saii uh,’ a ti nah ni.
And the King shall answer and say unto them, Verily I say unto you, Inasmuch as ye did it unto one of these my brethren, [even] these least, ye did it unto me.
41 Te phoeiah banvoei kah rhoek te khaw, 'Thaephoei thil rhoek, kai taeng lamkah loh, rhaithae neh a puencawn rhoek ham a hmoel pah dungyan hmai khuila cet uh. (aiōnios )
Then shall he say also unto them on the left hand, Depart from me, ye cursed, into the eternal fire which is prepared for the devil and his angels: (aiōnios )
42 Ka pong vaengah caak ham khaw kai nan pae uh pawt tih, ka halh vaengah kai te nan tul uh moenih.
for I was an hungred, and ye gave me no meat: I was thirsty, and ye gave me no drink:
43 Yinlai la ka om vaengah kai nang khue uh moenih. Ka pumtling vaengah kai nan khuk uh moenih. Ka tattloel neh thongim ah kai nan hip uh moenih,’ a ti nah ni.
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 Te vaengah amih rhoek loh a doo uh vetih, 'Boeipa me vaengah lae na pong, halh tih yinlai neh na pumtling te khaw ka hmuh uh? Me vaengah lae na tattloel neh thongim ah nang kan talong uh pawh? a ti uh ni.
Then shall they also answer, saying, Lord, 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 Te vaengah amih te a doo vetih, 'Nangmih taengah rhep ka thui, he rhoek khuiah a yit ca pakhat ham pataeng na saii uh pawt te tah kai ham na saii uh pawt la om,’ a ti nah ni.
Then shall he answer them, saying, Verily I say unto you, Inasmuch as ye did it not unto one of these least, ye did it not unto me.
46 Te vaengah amih te dungyan dantatnah khuila cet uh ni. Tedae aka dueng roek tah dungyan hingnah khuila kun uh ni,” a ti nah. (aiōnios )
And these shall go away into eternal punishment: but the righteous into eternal life. (aiōnios )
