Matthew 25
1 “At that time the kingdom of heaven will be like ten virgins who took their lamps and went out to meet the bridegroom.
Taevariik on nagu kümme neidu, kes võtsid oma lambid kaasa ja läksid peigmehega kohtuma.
2 Five of them were foolish, and five were wise.
Viis olid rumalad ja viis targad.
3 The foolish ones took their lamps but did not take along any extra oil.
Rumalad neiud võtsid oma lambid, kuid ei võtnud kaasa õli,
4 But the wise ones took oil in flasks along with their lamps.
samal ajal targad neiud võtsid kaasa nii õlinõud kui ka lambid.
5 When the bridegroom was delayed, they all became drowsy and fell asleep.
Peigmehe tulek viibis ning kõik neiud jäid uniseks ja uinusid magama.
6 At midnight the cry rang out: ‘Here is the bridegroom! Come out to meet him!’
Keskööl kõlas hüüd: „Vaadake, peigmees on kohal! Tulge välja temaga kohtuma!“
7 Then all the virgins woke up and trimmed their lamps.
Kõik neiud ärkasid ja kohendasid oma lampide tahti. Rumalad neiud ütlesid tarkadele:
8 The foolish ones said to the wise, ‘Give us some of your oil; our lamps are going out.’
„Andke meile veidi oma õli, sest meie lambid kustuvad.“Aga targad neiud vastasid:
9 ‘No,’ said the wise ones, ‘or there may not be enough for both us and you. Instead, go to those who sell oil and buy some for yourselves.’
„Ei, sest muidu ei jaguks sellest ei teile ega meile. Minge poodnike juurde ja ostke endale õli.“
10 But while they were on their way to buy it, the bridegroom arrived. Those who were ready went in with him to the wedding banquet, 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 Later the other virgins arrived and said, ‘Lord, lord, open the door for us!’
Teised neiud tulid hiljem. „Isand, isand!“hüüdsid nad. „Ava meile uks!“
12 But he replied, ‘Truly I tell you, I do not know you.’
Kuid peigmees vastas: „Ma ütlen teile tõtt: ma ei tunne teid.“
13 Therefore keep watch, because you do not know the day or the hour.
Nii et olge valvsad, sest te ei tea päeva ega tundi.
14 For it is just like a man going on a journey, who called his servants and entrusted them with his possessions.
See on nagu mees, kes läks ära reisile. Ta kutsus kokku oma sulased ja usaldas nende kätte oma vara.
15 To one he gave five talents, to another two talents, and to another one talent—each according to his own ability. And he went on his journey.
Ühele sulasele andis ta viis talenti, teisele kaks ja kolmandale ühe, vastavalt nende erinevatele võimetele. Siis ta lahkus.
16 The servant who had received the five talents went at once and put them to work and gained five more.
Viis talenti saanu läks kohe ja investeeris need ärisse ning sai juurde veel viis talenti.
17 Likewise, the one with the two talents gained two more.
Samamoodi sai kaks talenti saanu veel kaks juurde.
18 But the servant who had received the one talent went off, dug a hole in the ground, and hid his master’s money.
Aga mees, kes oli saanud ühe talendi, läks ja kaevas augu ning peitis oma isanda raha ära.
19 After a long time the master of those servants returned to settle accounts with them.
Kaua aega hiljem tuli nende sulaste isand tagasi ja õiendas nendega arved.
20 The servant who had received the five talents came and presented five more. ‘Master,’ he said, ‘you entrusted me with five talents. See, I have gained five more.’
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 master replied, ‘Well done, good and faithful servant! You have been faithful with a few things; I will put you in charge of many things. Enter into the joy of your master!’
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 The servant who had received the two talents also came and said, ‘Master, you entrusted me with two talents. See, I have gained two more.’
Tuli ka see, kes oli saanud kaks talenti. „Isand, “ütles ta, „sa andsid mulle kaks talenti. Vaata, ma sain kaks talenti kasu.“
23 His master replied, ‘Well done, good and faithful servant! You have been faithful with a few things; I will put you in charge of many things. Enter into the joy of your master!’
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 Finally, the servant who had received the one talent came and said, ‘Master, I knew that you are a hard man, reaping where you have not sown and gathering where you have not scattered seed.
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 So I was afraid and went out and hid your talent in the ground. See, you have what belongs to you.’
Kuna ma kartsin sind, läksin ma ja matsin su talendi maa sisse. Vaata, sa saad tagasi selle, mis sulle kuulub.“
26 ‘You wicked, lazy servant!’ replied his master. ‘You knew that I reap where I have not sown and gather where I have not scattered seed.
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 Then you should have deposited my money with the bankers, and on my return I would have received it back with interest.
siis oleksid pidanud mu hõbeda panka hoiule andma, et ma koju tulles oleksin saanud oma raha intressiga tagasi.
28 Therefore take the talent from him and give it to the one who has ten talents.
Võtke talent temalt ära ja andke sellele, kellel on kümme talenti.
29 For everyone who has will be given more, and he will have an abundance. But the one who does not have, even what he has will be taken away from him.
Sest igaühele, kellel on, sellele antakse veel rohkem, ja igaühelt, kellel pole midagi, võetakse ära seegi, mis tal on.
30 And throw that worthless servant into the outer darkness, where there will be weeping and gnashing of teeth.’
Nüüd heitke see kasutu sulane välja pimedusse, kus on nutmine ja hammaste kiristamine.“
31 When the Son of Man comes in His glory, and all the angels with Him, He will sit on His glorious throne.
Aga kui inimese Poeg tuleb oma hiilguses ja kõik inglid koos temaga, siis istub ta oma suursugusele troonile.
32 All the nations will be gathered before Him, and He will separate the people one from another, as a shepherd separates the sheep from the goats.
Kõik tuuakse tema ette. Ta eraldab nad üksteisest, nagu karjane eraldab lambad kitsedest.
33 He will place the sheep on His right and the goats on His left.
Ta paneb lambad oma paremale käele ja kitsed vasakule käele.
34 Then the King will say to those on His right, ‘Come, you who are blessed by My Father, inherit 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 something to eat, I was thirsty and you gave Me something 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 I was naked and you clothed Me, I was sick and you looked after Me, I was in prison and you visited 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 the righteous will answer Him, ‘Lord, when did we see You hungry and feed You, or thirsty and give You something to drink?
Siis need, kes on temast paremal, vastavad: „Issand, millal me nägime sind näljasena ja toitsime sind, või janusena ja jootsime sind?
38 When did we see You a stranger and take You in, or naked and clothe You?
Millal nägime sind võõrana ja kutsusime sind sisse või alasti ja riietasime sind?
39 When did we see You sick or in prison and visit You?’
Millal nägime sind haigena või vangis ja külastasime sind?“
40 And the King will reply, ‘Truly I tell you, whatever you did for one of the least of these brothers of Mine, you did for Me.’
Kuningas lausub neile: „Ma ütlen teile tõtt: mida iganes te tegite ühele neist, kes on kõige tähtsusetumad, seda tegite mulle.“
41 Then He will say to those on His left, ‘Depart from Me, you who are cursed, into the eternal fire 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 nothing to eat, I was thirsty and you gave Me nothing 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 did not take Me in, I was naked and you did not clothe Me, I was 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 And they too will reply, ‘Lord, when did we see You hungry or thirsty or a stranger or naked or sick or in prison, and did not minister to You?’
Siis vastavad ka nemad: „Issand, millal me nägime sind näljase või janusena, võõrana või alasti, haigena või vangis, ega hoolitsenud sinu eest?“
45 Then the King will answer, ‘Truly I tell you, whatever you did not do for one of the least of these, you did not do for 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.“
