Matthew 25
1 The kingdom of heaven is like ten girls, who took their lamps with them to go and meet the bridegroom.
yaa da"sa kanyaa. h pradiipaan g. rhlatyo vara. m saak. saat karttu. m bahiritaa. h, taabhistadaa svargiiyaraajyasya saad. r"sya. m bhavi. syati|
2 Five were foolish, and five were wise.
taasaa. m kanyaanaa. m madhye pa nca sudhiya. h pa nca durdhiya aasan|
3 The foolish girls took their lamps but didn't take any oil with them,
yaa durdhiyastaa. h pradiipaan sa"nge g. rhiitvaa taila. m na jag. rhu. h,
4 while the wise took jars of oil with them as well as their lamps.
kintu sudhiya. h pradiipaan paatre. na taila nca jag. rhu. h|
5 The bridegroom took a long time and all the girls became drowsy and fell asleep.
anantara. m vare vilambite taa. h sarvvaa nidraavi. s.taa nidraa. m jagmu. h|
6 At midnight the shout came, ‘Look, the bridegroom's here! Come out and meet him!’
anantaram arddharaatre pa"syata vara aagacchati, ta. m saak. saat karttu. m bahiryaateti janaravaat
7 All the girls got up and trimmed the wicks of their lamps. The foolish girls said to the wise ones,
taa. h sarvvaa. h kanyaa utthaaya pradiipaan aasaadayitu. m aarabhanta|
8 ‘Give us some of your oil, because our lamps are going out.’ But the wise girls replied,
tato durdhiya. h sudhiya uucu. h, ki ncit taila. m datta, pradiipaa asmaaka. m nirvvaa. naa. h|
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.’
kintu sudhiya. h pratyavadan, datte yu. smaanasmaa. m"sca prati taila. m nyuuniibhavet, tasmaad vikret. r.naa. m samiipa. m gatvaa svaartha. m taila. m krii. niita|
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.
tadaa taasu kretu. m gataasu vara aajagaama, tato yaa. h sajjitaa aasan, taastena saaka. m vivaahiiya. m ve"sma pravivi"su. h|
11 The other girls came later. ‘Lord, Lord,’ they called, ‘Open the door for us!’
anantara. m dvaare ruddhe aparaa. h kanyaa aagatya jagadu. h, he prabho, he prabho, asmaan prati dvaara. m mocaya|
12 But he answered, ‘I tell you the truth: I don't know you.’
kintu sa uktavaan, tathya. m vadaami, yu. smaanaha. m na vedmi|
13 So stay alert, for you don't know the day, or the hour.
ato jaagrata. h santasti. s.thata, manujasuta. h kasmin dine kasmin da. n.de vaagami. syati, tad yu. smaabhi rna j naayate|
14 It's like a man who went away on a trip. He called in his servants and entrusted them with what he owned.
apara. m sa etaad. r"sa. h kasyacit pu. msastulya. h, yo duurade"sa. m prati yaatraakaale nijadaasaan aahuuya te. saa. m svasvasaamarthyaanuruupam
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.
ekasmin mudraa. naa. m pa nca po. talikaa. h anyasmi. m"sca dve po. talike aparasmi. m"sca po. talikaikaam ittha. m pratijana. m samarpya svaya. m pravaasa. m gatavaan|
16 Immediately the one with five talents went and invested them in a business, and made another five talents.
anantara. m yo daasa. h pa nca po. talikaa. h labdhavaan, sa gatvaa vaa. nijya. m vidhaaya taa dvigu. niicakaara|
17 In the same way the one with two talents made another two.
ya"sca daaso dve po. talike alabhata, sopi taa mudraa dvigu. niicakaara|
18 But the man who'd received the one talent went off and dug a hole and hid his master's money.
kintu yo daasa ekaa. m po. talikaa. m labdhavaan, sa gatvaa bhuumi. m khanitvaa tanmadhye nijaprabhostaa mudraa gopayaa ncakaara|
19 A long time later the master of those servants returned, and settled accounts with them.
tadanantara. m bahutithe kaale gate te. saa. m daasaanaa. m prabhuraagatya tairdaasai. h sama. m ga. nayaa ncakaara|
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.’
tadaanii. m ya. h pa nca po. talikaa. h praaptavaan sa taa dvigu. niik. rtamudraa aaniiya jagaada; he prabho, bhavataa mayi pa nca po. talikaa. h samarpitaa. h, pa"syatu, taa mayaa dvigu. niik. rtaa. h|
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!’
tadaanii. m tasya prabhustamuvaaca, he uttama vi"svaasya daasa, tva. m dhanyosi, stokena vi"svaasyo jaata. h, tasmaat tvaa. m bahuvittaadhipa. m karomi, tva. m svaprabho. h sukhasya bhaagii bhava|
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.’
tato yena dve po. talike labdhe sopyaagatya jagaada, he prabho, bhavataa mayi dve po. talike samarpite, pa"syatu te mayaa dvigu. niik. rte|
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!’
tena tasya prabhustamavocat, he uttama vi"svaasya daasa, tva. m dhanyosi, stokena vi"svaasyo jaata. h, tasmaat tvaa. m bahudravi. naadhipa. m karomi, tva. m nijaprabho. h sukhasya bhaagii bhava|
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.
anantara. m ya ekaa. m po. talikaa. m labdhavaan, sa etya kathitavaan, he prabho, tvaa. m ka. thinanara. m j naatavaan, tvayaa yatra nopta. m, tatraiva k. rtyate, yatra ca na kiir. na. m, tatraiva sa. mg. rhyate|
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.’
atoha. m sa"sa"nka. h san gatvaa tava mudraa bhuumadhye sa. mgopya sthaapitavaan, pa"sya, tava yat tadeva g. rhaa. na|
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,
tadaa tasya prabhu. h pratyavadat re du. s.taalasa daasa, yatraaha. m na vapaami, tatra chinadmi, yatra ca na kiraami, tatreva sa. mg. rhlaamiiti cedajaanaastarhi
27 then you should have deposited my silver in the bank so that when I returned I could have had my money with interest.
va. nik. su mama vittaarpa. na. m tavocitamaasiit, yenaahamaagatya v. rdvyaa saaka. m muulamudraa. h praapsyam|
28 Take the talent away from him, and give it to the one with ten talents.
atosmaat taa. m po. talikaam aadaaya yasya da"sa po. talikaa. h santi tasminnarpayata|
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.
yena vardvyate tasminnaivaarpi. syate, tasyaiva ca baahulya. m bhavi. syati, kintu yena na vardvyate, tasyaantike yat ki ncana ti. s.thati, tadapi punarne. syate|
30 Now throw this useless servant out into the darkness where there'll be crying and gnashing of teeth.’
apara. m yuuya. m tamakarmma. nya. m daasa. m niitvaa yatra sthaane krandana. m dantaghar. sa. na nca vidyete, tasmin bahirbhuutatamasi nik. sipata|
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.
yadaa manujasuta. h pavitraduutaan sa"ngina. h k. rtvaa nijaprabhaavenaagatya nijatejomaye si. mhaasane nivek. syati,
32 Everyone will be brought before him. He will separate them from one another, as a shepherd separates the sheep from the goats.

33 He'll place the sheep on his right hand, and the goats on his left.
dak. si. ne chaagaa. m"sca vaame sthaapayi. syati|
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.
tata. h para. m raajaa dak. si. nasthitaan maanavaan vadi. syati, aagacchata mattaatasyaanugrahabhaajanaani, yu. smatk. rta aa jagadaarambhat yad raajyam aasaadita. m tadadhikuruta|
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.
yato bubhuk. sitaaya mahya. m bhojyam adatta, pipaasitaaya peyamadatta, vide"sina. m maa. m svasthaanamanayata,
36 I was naked and you clothed me. I was sick and you looked after me. I was in prison and you visited me.’
vastrahiina. m maa. m vasana. m paryyadhaapayata, pii. diita. m maa. m dra. s.tumaagacchata, kaaraastha nca maa. m viik. situma aagacchata|
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?
tadaa dhaarmmikaa. h prativadi. syanti, he prabho, kadaa tvaa. m k. sudhita. m viik. sya vayamabhojayaama? vaa pipaasita. m viik. sya apaayayaama?
38 When did we see you as a stranger and invite you in, or naked and clothe you?
kadaa vaa tvaa. m vide"sina. m vilokya svasthaanamanayaama? kadaa vaa tvaa. m nagna. m viik. sya vasana. m paryyadhaapayaama?
39 When did we see you sick, or in prison, and visit you?’
kadaa vaa tvaa. m pii. dita. m kaaraastha nca viik. sya tvadantikamagacchaama?
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.’
tadaanii. m raajaa taan prativadi. syati, yu. smaanaha. m satya. m vadaami, mamaite. saa. m bhraat. r.naa. m madhye ka ncanaika. m k. sudratama. m prati yad akuruta, tanmaa. m pratyakuruta|
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)
pa"scaat sa vaamasthitaan janaan vadi. syati, re "saapagrastaa. h sarvve, "saitaane tasya duutebhya"sca yo. anantavahniraasaadita aaste, yuuya. m madantikaat tamagni. m gacchata| (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.
yato k. sudhitaaya mahyamaahaara. m naadatta, pipaasitaaya mahya. m peya. m naadatta,
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.’

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?’
tadaa te prativadi. syanti, he prabho, kadaa tvaa. m k. sudhita. m vaa pipaasita. m vaa vide"sina. m vaa nagna. m vaa pii. dita. m vaa kaaraastha. m viik. sya tvaa. m naasevaamahi?
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.’
