Matthew 25
1 Then shall the kingdom of heaven be like to ten virgins, who taking their lamps went out to meet the bridegroom and the bride.
Então o reino dos céus será semelhante a dez virgens que, tomando as suas lâmpadas, sairam ao encontro do esposo.
2 And five of them were foolish, and five wise.
E cinco delas eram prudentes, e cinco loucas.
3 But the five foolish, having taken their lamps, did not take oil with them:
As loucas, tomando as suas lâmpadas, não levaram azeite consigo,
4 But the wise took oil in their vessels with the lamps.
Mas as prudentes levaram azeite nos seus vasos, com as suas lâmpadas.
5 And the bridegroom tarrying, they all slumbered and slept.
E, tardando o esposo, tosquenejaram todas, e adormeceram,
6 And at midnight there was a cry made: Behold the bridegroom cometh, go ye forth to meet him.
Mas à meia noite ouviu-se um clamor: ai vem o esposo, sai-lhe ao encontro.
7 Then all those virgins arose and trimmed their lamps.
Então todas aquelas virgens se levantaram, e prepararam as suas lâmpadas.
8 And the foolish said to the wise: Give us of your oil, for our lamps are gone out.
E as loucas disseram às prudentes: dai-nos do vosso azeite, porque as nossas lâmpadas se apagam.
9 The wise answered, saying: Lest perhaps there be not enough for us and for you, go ye rather to them that sell, and buy for yourselves.
Mas as prudentes responderam, dizendo: Não seja caso que nos falte a nós e a vós; ide antes aos que o vendem, e comprai-o para vós.
10 Now whilst they went to buy, the bridegroom came: and they that were ready, went in with him to the marriage, and the door was shut.
E, tendo elas ido compra-lo, chegou o esposo, e as que estavam preparadas entraram com ele para as bodas, e fechou-se a porta.
11 But at last come also the other virgins, saying: Lord, Lord, open to us.
E depois chegaram também as outras virgens, dizendo: Senhor, Senhor, abre-nos.
12 But he answering said: Amen I say to you, I know you not.
E ele, respondendo, disse: Em verdade vos digo que vos não conheço.
13 Watch ye therefore, because you know not the day nor the hour.
Vigiai pois, porque não sabeis o dia nem a hora em que o Filho do homem há de vir.
14 For even as a man going into a far country, called his servants, and delivered to them his goods;
Porque, é também como um homem que, partindo para fora da sua terra, chamou os seus servos, e entregou-lhes os seus bens;
15 And to one he gave five talents, and to another two, and to another one, to every one according to his proper ability: and immediately he took his journey.
E a um deu cinco talentos, e a outro dois, e a outro um, a cada um segundo a sua capacidade, e ausentou-se logo para longe.
16 And he that had received the five talents, went his way, and traded with the same, and gained other five.
E, tendo ele partido, o que recebera cinco talentos negociou com eles, e grangeou outros cinco talentos.
17 And in like manner he that had received the two, gained other two.
Da mesma sorte, o que recebera dois, grangeou também outros dois;
18 But he that had received the one, going his way digged into the earth, and hid his lord’s money.
Mas o que recebera um foi enterra-lo no chão, e escondeu o dinheiro do seu senhor.
19 But after a long time the lord of those servants came, and reckoned with them.
E muito tempo depois veio o senhor daqueles servos, e fez contas com eles.
20 And he that had received the five talents coming, brought other five talents, saying: Lord, thou didst deliver to me five talents, behold I have gained other five over and above.
Então aproximou-se o que recebera cinco talentos, e trouxe-lhe outros cinco talentos, dizendo: Senhor, entregaste-me cinco talentos; eis aqui outros cinco talentos que grangeei com eles.
21 His lord said to him: Well done, good and faithful servant, because thou hast been faithful over a few things, I will place thee over many things: enter thou into the joy of thy lord.
E o seu senhor lhe disse: Bem está, servo bom e fiel. Sobre o pouco foste fiel, sobre muito te colocarei; entra no gozo do teu senhor.
22 And he also that had received the two talents came and said: Lord, thou deliveredst two talents to me: behold I have gained other two.
E, chegando também o que tinha recebido dois talentos, disse: Senhor, entregaste-me dois talentos; eis que com eles grangeei outros dois talentos.
23 His lord said to him: Well done, good and faithful servant: because thou hast been faithful over a few things, I will place thee over many things: enter thou into the joy of thy lord.
Disse-lhe o seu senhor: Bem está, bom e fiel servo. Sobre o pouco foste fiel, sobre muito te colocarei; entra no gozo do teu senhor.
24 But he that had received the one talent, came and said: Lord, I know that thou art a hard man; thou reapest where thou hast not sown, and gatherest where thou hast not strewed.
Mas, chegando também o que recebera um talento, disse: Senhor, eu conhecia-te, que és um homem duro, que ceifas onde não semeaste e ajuntas onde não espalhaste;
25 And being afraid I went and hid thy talent in the earth: behold here thou hast that which is thine.
E, atemorizado, escondi na terra o teu talento; aqui tens o que é teu.
26 And his lord answering, said to him: Wicked and slothful servant, thou knewest that I reap where I sow not, and gather where I have not strewed:
Respondendo, porém, o seu senhor, disse-lhe: Mau e negligente servo; sabes que ceifo onde não semeei e ajunto onde não espalhei;
27 Thou oughtest therefore to have committed my money to the bankers, and at my coming I should have received my own with usury.
Por isso te cumpria dar o meu dinheiro aos banqueiros, e, quando eu viesse, receberia o meu com os juros.
28 Take ye away therefore the talent from him, and give it to him that hath ten talents.
Tirai-lhe pois o talento, e dai-o ao que tem os dez talentos.
29 For to every one that hath shall be given, and he shall abound: but from him that hath not, that also which he seemeth to have shall be taken away.
Porque a qualquer que tiver será dado, e terá em abundância; mas ao que não tiver até o que tem será tirado.
30 And the unprofitable servant cast ye out into the exterior darkness. There shall be weeping and gnashing of teeth.
Lançai pois o servo inútil nas trevas exteriores: ali haverá pranto e ranger de dentes.
31 And when the Son of man shall come in his majesty, and all the angels with him, then shall he sit upon the seat of his majesty.
E quando o Filho do homem vier em sua glória, e todos os santos anjos com ele, então se assentará no trono da sua glória;
32 And all nations shall be gathered together before him, and he shall separate them one from another, as the shepherd separateth the sheep from the goats:
E todas as nações serão reunidas diante dele, e apartará uns dos outros, como o pastor aparta dos bodes as ovelhas,
33 And he shall set the sheep on his right hand, but the goats on his left.
E porá as ovelhas à sua direita, mas os bodes à esquerda.
34 Then shall the king say to them that shall be on his right hand: Come, ye blessed of my Father, possess you the kingdom prepared for you from the foundation of the world.
Então dirá o Rei aos que estiverem à sua direita: Vinde, benditos de meu Pai, possui por herança o reino que vos está preparado desde a fundação do mundo;
35 For I was hungry, and you gave me to eat; I was thirsty, and you gave me to drink; I was a stranger, and you took me in:
Porque tive fome, e destes-me de comer; tive sede, e destes-me de beber; era estrangeiro, e hospedastes-me;
36 Naked, and you covered me: sick, and you visited me: I was in prison, and you came to me.
Estava nú, e vestistes-me; adoeci, e visitastes-me; estive na prisão, e fostes ver-me.
37 Then shall the just answer him, saying: Lord, when did we see thee hungry, and fed thee; thirsty, and gave thee drink?
Então os justos lhe responderão, dizendo: Senhor, quando te vimos com fome, e te demos de comer? ou com sede, e te demos de beber?
38 And when did we see thee a stranger, and took thee in? or naked, and covered thee?
E quando te vimos estrangeiro, e te hospedamos? ou nú, e te vestimos?
39 Or when did we see thee sick or in prison, and came to thee?
E quando te vimos enfermo, ou na prisão, e fomos ver-te?
40 And the king answering, shall say to them: Amen I say to you, as long as you did it to one of these my least brethren, you did it to me.
E, respondendo o Rei, lhes dirá: Em verdade vos digo que, quando o fizestes a um destes meus pequeninos irmãos, a mim o fizestes.
41 Then he shall say to them also that shall be on his left hand: Depart from me, you cursed, into everlasting fire which was prepared for the devil and his angels. (aiōnios g166)
Então dirá também aos que estiverem à sua esquerda: apartai-vos de mim, malditos, para o fogo eterno, preparado para o diabo e seus anjos; (aiōnios g166)
42 For I was hungry, and you gave me not to eat: I was thirsty, and you gave me not to drink.
Porque tive fome, e não me destes de comer: tive sede, e não me destes de beber;
43 I was a stranger, and you took me not in: naked, and you covered me not: sick and in prison, and you did not visit me.
Sendo estrangeiro, não me recolhestes; estando nú, não me vestistes; enfermo, e na prisão, não me visitastes.
44 Then they also shall answer him, saying: Lord, when did we see thee hungry, or thirsty, or a stranger, or naked, or sick, or in prison, and did not minister to thee?
Então eles também lhe responderão, dizendo: Senhor, quando te vimos com fome, ou com sede, ou estrangeiro, ou nú, ou enfermo, ou na prisão, e te não servimos?
45 Then he shall answer them, saying: Amen I say to you, as long as you did it not to one of these least, neither did you do it to me.
Então lhes responderá, dizendo: Em verdade vos digo que, quando a um destes pequeninos o não fizestes, não o fizestes a mim
