Matthew 25
1 The kingdom of heaven is like ten girls, who took their lamps with them to go and meet the bridegroom.
तब स्वर्गको राज्य ती दस कन्याजस्तै हुनेछ जसले आ-आफ्ना बत्तीहरू लिएर दुलहालाई भेट्न गए ।
2 Five were foolish, and five were wise.
तिनीहरूमध्ये पाँच जना निर्बुद्धि र पाँच जना बुद्धिमती थिए ।
3 The foolish girls took their lamps but didn't take any oil with them,
किनकि जब ती निर्बुद्धि कन्याहरूले आफ्ना बत्तीहरू लिए, तिनीहरूले आफूसँग कत्ति पनि तेल लगेनन् ।
4 while the wise took jars of oil with them as well as their lamps.
तर बुद्धिमती कन्याहरू प्रत्येकले बत्तीहरूसँगै आ-आफ्ना तेलका भाँडाहरू पनि लगे ।
5 The bridegroom took a long time and all the girls became drowsy and fell asleep.
दुलहा आउन ढिला भएको हुनाले तिनीहरू सबै निन्द्रामा परे र सुते ।
6 At midnight the shout came, ‘Look, the bridegroom's here! Come out and meet him!’
तर मध्यरातमा एउटा आवाज आयो, ‘हेर, दुलहा! बाहिर जाऊ अनि उनलाई भेट ।’
7 All the girls got up and trimmed the wicks of their lamps. The foolish girls said to the wise ones,
त्यसपछि ती सबै कन्या उठे र आ-आफ्ना बत्तीहरूलाई ठिक्क पारे ।
8 ‘Give us some of your oil, because our lamps are going out.’ But the wise girls replied,
निर्बुद्धि कन्याहरूले बुद्धिमतीहरूलाई भने, ‘हामीलाई तिमीहरूका केही तेल देऊ किनभने हाम्रा बत्तीहरू निभ्न लागेका छन् ।’
9 ‘No, because otherwise there won't be enough for both you and for us. Go to the shopkeepers and buy some oil for yourselves.’
तर बुद्धिमती कन्याहरूले जवाफ दिए र भने, ‘तिमीहरू र हामी दुवैलाई प्रशस्त पुग्ने तेल नभएकोले, तेल बेच्नेहरूकहाँ जाओ र आफ्नो लागि तेल किन ।’
10 While they went to buy oil, the bridegroom arrived, and those who were ready went in with him to the wedding, and the door was locked shut.
जब तिनीहरू तेल किन्न बाहिर गए, दुलहा आइपुगे अनि जति जना तयार थिए तिनीहरू विवाहको भोजमा उनीसँगै गए, अनि ढोका बन्द गरियो ।
11 The other girls came later. ‘Lord, Lord,’ they called, ‘Open the door for us!’
केही समयपछि अरू कन्याहरू पनि आएर भने, ‘प्रभु, प्रभु, हाम्रो लागि खोलिदिनुहोस् ।’
12 But he answered, ‘I tell you the truth: I don't know you.’
तर उनले जवाफ दिएर भने, ‘साँच्चै म तिमीहरूलाई भन्दछु, म तिमीहरूलाई चिन्दिनँ ।’
13 So stay alert, for you don't know the day, or the hour.
त्यसकारण, जागा रहो, किनकि त्यो दिन वा घडी तिमीहरूलाई थाहा छैन ।
14 It's like a man who went away on a trip. He called in his servants and entrusted them with what he owned.
किनकि यो परदेश जानै लागेको मानिसजस्तै हो । उसले आफ्ना नोकरहरूलाई बोलाए र तिनीहरूलाई आफ्नो सम्पत्तिको जिम्मा दिए ।
15 To one of them he gave five talents, to another he gave two, and to another one, according to their different abilities. Then he left.
उनले तिनीहरूमध्ये एक जनालाई पाँच सिक्का दिए; अर्कोलाई दुई सिक्का र फेरि अर्कोलाई उनले एक सिक्का दिए । प्रत्यकले आफ्नो क्षमताअनुसार ती रकमहरू लिए, अनि त्यो मानिस तुरुन्तै आफ्नो यात्रामा हिँड्यो ।
16 Immediately the one with five talents went and invested them in a business, and made another five talents.
पाँच सिक्का पाउने तुरुन्तै गयो र उसले त्यसलाई लगानी गर्यो, र त्यसबाट अर्को पाँच सिक्का कमायो ।
17 In the same way the one with two talents made another two.
त्यसै गरी, जसले दुई सिक्का पाएको थियो, उसले पनि त्यसबाट अर्का दुई सिक्का कमायो ।
18 But the man who'd received the one talent went off and dug a hole and hid his master's money.
तर एउटा मात्र सिक्का पाएको नोकर गयो र उसले एउटा खाल्डो खन्यो, र आफ्नो मालिकको पैसा त्यहाँ लुकायो ।
19 A long time later the master of those servants returned, and settled accounts with them.
अब धेरै समयपछि ती नोकरहरूका मालिक फर्केर आए अनि तिनीहरूसँग हिसाब लिए ।
20 The one with five talents came and presented the other five talents. ‘Master,’ he said, ‘You gave me five talents. Look, I've made a profit of five talents.’
पाँच सिक्का पाएको नोकर आयो र उसले अर्को पाँचवटा सिक्का ल्यायो । उसले भन्यो, ‘मालिक, तपाईंले मलाई पाँचवटा सिक्का दिनुभएको थियो, हेर्नुहोस्, मैले अर्का पाँचवटा सिक्का कमाएको छु ।’
21 His master said to him, ‘You've done well—you are a good, faithful servant. You have proved yourself trustworthy over small things, so now I'm placing you in charge over many things. Be happy because I'm really pleased with you!’
उसको मालिकले उसलाई भने, ‘स्याबास, असल र विश्वासयोग्य नोकर! तिमी थोरै कुरामा विश्वासयोग्य भएका छौ । म तिमीलाई धेरै कुरामाथि अधिकार दिनेछु । तिमी पनि आफ्नो मालिकको खुसीमा सामेल होऊ ।’
22 The one with two talents also came. ‘Master,’ he said, ‘You gave me two talents. Look, I've made a profit of two talents.’
दुईवटा सिक्का पाएको नोकर आयो र भन्यो, ‘मालिक तपाईंले मलाई दुईवटा सिक्का दिनुभएको थियो । हेर्नुहोस्, मैले अर्का दुईवटा सिक्का कमाएको छु ।’
23 His master said to him, ‘You've done well—you are a good, faithful servant. You have proved trustworthy over small things, so now I'm placing you in charge over many things. Be happy because I'm really pleased with you!’
उसको मालिकले उसलाई भने, ‘स्याबास, असल र विश्वासयोग्य नोकर! तिमी थोरै कुरामा विश्वासयोग्य भएका छौ । म तिमीलाई धेरै कुरामाथि अधिकार दिनेछु । तिमी पनि आफ्ना मालिकको खुसीमा सामेल होऊ ।’
24 Then the man with one talent came. ‘Master,’ he said, ‘I know that you're a hard man. You reap where you didn't sow, and you harvest crops that you didn't plant.
त्यसपछि एउटा सिक्का पाएको नोकर आयो र भन्यो, ‘मलाई थाहा छ, कि तपाईं कडा स्वभावको मानिस हुनुहुन्छ । तपाईंले आफूले नरोपेको ठाउँबाट कटनी गर्नुहुन्छ र नछरेको ठाउँबाट फसल निकाल्नुहुन्छ ।
25 So since I was afraid of you I went and buried your talent in the ground. Look, you can have back what belongs to you.’
मलाई डर थियो । त्यसकारण, म गएँ र तपाईंको सिक्कालाई जमिनमुनि लुकाइराखेँ । ‘हेर्नुहोस्, जे तपाईंको हो यसलाई लिनुहोस् ।’
26 But his master answered him, ‘You wicked and lazy servant! If you think I reap where I don't sow, and harvest crops I didn't plant,
तर उसको मालिकले जवाफ दिए र भने, ‘ए दुष्ट र अल्छी नोकर, मैले नरोपेको ठाउँबाट कटनी गर्छु र नछरेको ठाउँबाट फसल निकाल्छु भनेर तँलाई थाहा थियो ।
27 then you should have deposited my silver in the bank so that when I returned I could have had my money with interest.
त्यसकारण, तैँले मेरो पैसा साहुकहाँ दिनुपर्ने थियो, र म आउँदा मैले आफ्नो पैसा ब्याजसहित पाउने थिएँ ।
28 Take the talent away from him, and give it to the one with ten talents.
त्यसकारण, त्योसँग भएको एक सिक्का लेओ र जुन नोकरसँग दस सिक्का छ त्यसलाई देओ ।
29 For everyone who has will be given even more; and everyone who doesn't have anything, even what they have will be taken away from them.
किनकि जससँग छ त्यसलाई अझ धेरै दिइनेछ अर्थात् अझ प्रशस्त गरी दिइनेछ । तर जससँग छैन, त्यससँग भएको पनि त्यसबाट खोसिनेछ ।
30 Now throw this useless servant out into the darkness where there'll be crying and gnashing of teeth.’
त्यो बेकम्मा नोकरलाई बाहिरी अन्धकारमा फालिदेओ, जहाँ रुवाबासी र दाह्रा किटाइ हुनेछ ।’
31 But when the Son of man comes in his glory, and all the angels with him, then he will sit on his majestic throne.
जब मानिसका पुत्र आफ्नो महिमामा आउनेछन् र उनको साथमा सारा स्वर्गदूतहरू आउनेछन्, उनी आफ्नो महिमित सिंहासनमा विराजमान हुनेछन् ।
32 Everyone will be brought before him. He will separate them from one another, as a shepherd separates the sheep from the goats.
उनको सामुन्ने सारा जाति भेला गराइनेछन्, र जसरी गोठालाले आफ्ना भेडाहरूलाई बाख्राहरूबाट छुट्ट्याउँछ, त्यसरी नै उनले एउटा मानिसलाई अर्कोबाट छुट्ट्याउनेछन् ।
33 He'll place the sheep on his right hand, and the goats on his left.
उनले भेडाहरूलाई आफ्नो दायाँ हातपट्टि र बाख्राहरूलाई आफ्नो बायाँपट्टि राख्नेछन् ।
34 Then the king will say to the ones on his right, ‘Come, you who are blessed by my Father, and inherit the kingdom that's been prepared for you from the beginning of the world.
त्यसपछि राजाले आफ्नो दाहिनेपट्टि भएकाहरूलाई भन्नेछन्, ‘आओ, तिमीहरू जो मेरा पिताद्वारा आशिषित् भएका छौ, संसारको सृष्टिदेखि नै तिमीहरूका लागि तयार पारिएको राज्यलाई अधिकार गर ।
35 For I was hungry, and you gave me food to eat. I was thirsty, and you gave me a drink. I was a stranger and you invited me in.
किनकि म भोकाएको थिएँ, अनि तिमीहरूले मलाई खान दियौ; म प्यासी थिएँ र तिमीहरूले मलाई पिउन दियौ; म परदेशी थिएँ र तिमीहरूले मलाई भित्र आउन दियौ;
36 I was naked and you clothed me. I was sick and you looked after me. I was in prison and you visited me.’
म नाङ्गो थिएँ र तिमीहरूले मलाई लुगा पहिराइदियौ; म बिरामी थिएँ र तिमीहरूले मेरो वास्ता गर्यौ; म झ्यालखानामा थिएँ र तिमीहरू मकहाँ आयौ ।’
37 Then those who are right will answer, ‘Lord, when did we see you hungry and fed you, or thirsty and gave you a drink?
त्यसपछि धर्मी जनहरूले जवाफ दिई भन्नेछन्, ‘प्रभु हामीले कहिले तपाईंलाई भोकाउनुभएको देख्यौँ र तपाईंलाई खुवायौँ? वा तिर्खाउनुभएको देख्यौँ र तपाईंलाई पिउन दियौँ?
38 When did we see you as a stranger and invite you in, or naked and clothe you?
र हामीले कहिले तपाईंलाई परदेशी भएको देख्यौँ र तपाईंलाई भित्र ल्यायौँ?
39 When did we see you sick, or in prison, and visit you?’
र हामीले तपाईंलाई बिरामी वा झ्यालखानामा कहिले देख्यौँ र हामी तपाईंकहाँ आयौँ?’
40 The king will tell them, ‘I tell you the truth: whatever you did for one of these of least importance you did for me.’
र राजाले जवाफ दिनेछन् र तिनीहरूलाई भन्नेछन्, ‘साँच्चै म तिमीहरूलाई भन्दछु, तिमीहरूले यहाँ मेरा भाइहरूमध्ये सानोभन्दा सानोलाई जे-जति गर्यौ, त्यो मेरो निम्ति नै गर्यौ ।’
41 He'll also say to those on his left, ‘Go away from me, you who are doomed, into the eternal fire prepared for the devil and his angels! (aiōnios g166)
त्यसपछि उनले आफ्नो बायाँ हातपट्टि भएकाहरूलाई भन्नेछन्, ‘हे श्रापितहरू, मबाट दूर भएर अनन्त आगोमा जाओ, जुन दुष्ट र त्यसका दूतहरूका लागि तयार गरिएको हो, (aiōnios g166)
42 For I was hungry and you didn't give me anything to eat. I was thirsty and you didn't give me a drink.
किनभने म भोकाएको थिएँ, तर तिमीहरूले मलाई खान दिएनौ; म तिर्खाएको थिएँ, तर तिमीहरूले मलाई पिउन दिएनौ;
43 I was a stranger and you didn't invite me in. I was naked and you didn't clothe me. I was sick and in prison and you didn't visit me.’
म परदेशी थिएँ, तर तिमीहरूले मलाई भित्र लगेनौ; नाङ्गो थिएँ, तर तिमीहरूले मलाई पहिराएनौ; बिरामी थिएँ र झ्यालखानामा थिएँ, तर तिमीहरूले मेरो वास्ता गरेनौ ।’
44 Then they will also answer, ‘Lord, when did we see you hungry, or thirsty, or a stranger, or naked, or sick, or in prison, and didn't look after you?’
त्यसपछि तिनीहरूले पनि जवाफ दिनेछन् र भन्नेछन्, ‘प्रभु, हामीले तपाईंलाई भोकाउनुभएको, वा तिर्खाउनुभएको, वा परदेशी, वा नाङ्गो, वा बिरामी हुनुभएको, वा झ्यालखानामा कहिले देख्यौँ र हामीले तपाईंको सेवा गरेनौँ?’
45 Then he will tell them, ‘I tell you the truth: whatever you didn't do for one of these of least importance you didn't do for me.’
अनि उनले तिनीहरूलाई जवाफ दिनेछन् र भन्नेछन्, ‘साँच्चै म तिमीहरूलाई भन्दछु, यिनीहरूमध्ये सानोभन्दा सानोलाई तिमीहरूले जे गरेनौ, त्यो तिमीहरूले मेरो निम्ति गरेनौ ।’
