Matthew 25
1 Then the kingdome of heauen shalbe likened vnto tenne virgins, which tooke their lampes, and went foorth to meete the bridegrome.
“Bogosi jwa Legodimo bo ka tshwants-hiwa ka polelo ya makgarebana a a some a a neng a tsaya dipone tsa one a ya go kgatlhantsha monyadi.
2 And fiue of them were wise, and fiue foolish.
Mme ba le batlhano fela ba bone ba ne ba nna botlhale go tlatsa dipone tsa bone lookwane, fa ba bangwe ba batlhano ba ne ba dira boeleele ba lebala go dira jalo.
3 The foolish tooke their lampes, but tooke none oyle with them.
4 But the wise tooke oyle in their vessels with their lampes.
5 Nowe while the bridegrome taried long, all slumbred and slept.
“Mme ya re monyadi a diega, ba nna fa fatshe go itapolosa go fitlhelela bosigogare fa ba thantshiwa ke mokgosi o o reng, ‘Monyadi o e tla! Tswelang kwa ntle lo mo amogeleng.’
6 And at midnight there was a crie made, Behold, the bridegrome commeth: goe out to meete him.
7 Then all those virgins arose, and trimmed their lampes.
“Basetsana botlhe ba phaphama ba baakanya dipone tsa bone. Mme, ba batlhano ba ba neng ba sena lookwane ba kopa ba bangwe go ba thelela lookwane gonne dipone tsa bone di ne di tima.
8 And the foolish said to the wise, Giue vs of your oyle, for our lampes are out.
9 But the wise answered, saying, Not so, lest there will not be ynough for vs and you: but goe ye rather to them that sell, and bye for your selues.
“Mme ba bangwe ba fetola ba re, ‘ga re na lookwane lo lo lekanyeng. Tsamayang lo ye kwa mabentleleng lo ye go ithekela.’
10 And while they went to bye, the bridegrome came: and they that were readie, went in with him to the wedding, and the gate was shut.
“Mme ya re ba sa ntse ba tsamaile monyadi a goroga mme ba ba neng ba ipaakantse ba tsena nae mo modirong wa lenyalo, mme kgoro ya tswalwa.
11 Afterwards came also the other virgins, saying, Lord, Lord, open to vs.
Morago fa ba bangwe ba batlhano ba boa, ba nna kwa ntle ba bitsa ba re, ‘Morena Morena, re bulele!’
12 But he answered, and said, Verely I say vnto you, I knowe you not.
“Mme a fetola a re ‘Tsamayang! nako e setse e fetile!’
13 Watch therfore: for ye know neither the day, nor the houre, when the sonne of man will come.
“Jalo nnang lo itisitse lo ipaakantse, gonne ga lo itse letsatsi kgotsa lobaka lwa go boa ga me.”
14 For the kingdome of heauen is as a man that going into a strange countrey, called his seruants, and deliuered to them his goods.
“Gape, Bogosi jwa Legodimo bo ka tshwantshiwa ka polelo ya monna yo o kileng a ya kwa lefatshing lengwe, yo o neng a bitsa batlhanka ba gagwe mme a ba neela madi go a mo atisetsa a sa ntse a seyo.
15 And vnto one he gaue fiue talents, and to an other two, and to another one, to euery man after his own ability, and straightway went from home.
A neela wa ntlha madi a selekanyo sa ditalenta di le tlhano, yo mongwe a mo neela ditalenta di le pedi, mme wa bofelo a mo neela talenta e le nngwe fela, a a kgaoganya ka fa nonofong ya bone, mme hong a simolola loeto lwa gagwe.
16 Then he that had receiued the fiue talents, went and occupied with them, and gained other fiue talents.
“Monna yo o amogetseng ditalenta di le tlhano a simolola go reka a rekisa mme a dira lesome.
17 Likewise also, he that receiued two, he also gained other two.
Monna yo o tshotseng ditalenta tse pedi a tlhamalalela kwa tirong, le ene a dira ditalenta tse pedi tse dingwe.
18 But he that receiued that one, went and digged it in the earth, and hid his masters money.
“Mme monna yo o amogetseng talenta e le nngwe a e epela mosima a e fitlha mo teng gore e bolokesege.
19 But after a long season, the master of those seruants came, and reckoned with them.
Morago ga nako e telele monnga-bone a boa mo loetong lwa gagwe, mme a ba biletsa kwa go ene go arabela madi a gagwe.
20 Then came he that had receiued fiue talents, and brought other fiue talents, saying, Master, thou deliueredst vnto me fiue talents: behold, I haue gained with them other fiue talents.
Monna yo o neng a mo neetse ditalenta di le tlhano a mo neela ditalenta di le some.
21 Then his master saide vnto him, It is well done good seruant and faithfull, Thou hast bene faithfull in litle, I will make thee ruler ouer much: enter into thy masters ioy.
Monngagwe a mo akgolela tiro e ntle eo. A mo raya a re o ikanyegile mo go bolokeng bonnyennyane jo, jalo he ke tlaa go naya thata mo dilong di le dintsi. Tla o tlhakanele le nna boitumelo jwa me.”
22 Also he that had receiued two talents, came, and said, Master, thou deliueredst vnto me two talents: behold, I haue gained two other talets more.
“Lwa bobedi ga tla monna yo a neng a amogetse ditalenta di le pedi ka polelo e e reng, ‘Morena, o nneetse ditalenta di le pedi go di dirisa, mme ke menagantse gabedi.’
23 His master saide vnto him, It is well done good seruant, and faithfull, Thou hast bene faithfull in litle, I will make thee ruler ouer much: enter into thy masters ioy.
“Monngagwe a mo raya a re, ‘O dirile tiro e ntle, O motlhanka yo o siameng yo o ikanyegang. O ntse o ikanyega mo go bolokeng bonnyennyane jo, mme jaanong ke go neela go le gontsi.’
24 Then he which had receiued the one talent, came, and said, Master, I knewe that thou wast an hard man, which reapest where thou sowedst not, and gatherest where thou strawedst not:
Hong monna yo o tshotseng talenta e le nngwe a tla mme a re, ‘Morena ke go itse o le motho yo o pelo e thata, mme ke ne ka tshaba gore o tlaa ntseela se ke se boneng ka go atisa madi, jalo ka fitlha madi a gago mo mmung, mme ke a!’
25 I was therefore afraide, and went, and hid thy talent in the earth: behold, thou hast thine owne.
26 And his master answered, and said vnto him, Thou euill seruant, and slouthfull, thou knewest that I reape where I sowed not, and gather where I strawed not.
Mme monngagwe a fetola a re, ‘Motlhanka yo o bosula! Lekgoba le le setshwakga! Ka o no o itse ke tlaa batla ga mofufutso wa phatla ya gago,
27 Thou oughtest therefore to haue put my money to ye exchangers, and then at my comming should I haue receiued mine owne with vantage.
O ka bo bogolo o ne wa baya madi a me mo polokelong gore ke tle ke bone morokotso wa one
28 Take therefore the talent from him, and giue it vnto him which hath tenne talents.
Tsayang madi a mo monneng yo lo a neele monna yo o nang le ditalenta di le some.
29 For vnto euery man that hath, it shall be giuen, and he shall haue abundance, and from him that hath not, euen that he hath, shalbe taken away.
Gonne motho yo o dirisang se a se neetsweng sentle o tlaa neelwa go le go tona, mme o tlaa nna le letlotlo, mme motho yo o sa ikanyegeng, le e leng tshwanelo e potlana e a nang nayo e tlaa tsewa mo go ene.
30 Cast therefore that vnprofitable seruant into vtter darkenes: there shalbe weeping and gnasshing of teeth.
Mme fa e le motlhanka yo o senang molemo yo o tlaa latlhelwa kwa ntle mo lefifing kwa go tlaa nnang selelo le khuranyo ya meno.’
31 And when the Sonne of man commeth in his glory, and all the holy Angels with him, then shall he sit vpon the throne of his glorie,
“Mme fa nna Morwa Motho ke tla mo kgalalelong ya me, le baengele botlhe ba na le nna, ke tlaa nna mo setulong sa me sa kgalalelo.
32 And before him shalbe gathered all nations, and he shall seperate them one from another, as a shepheard separateth the sheepe from ye goates.
Mme dichaba tsotlhe di tlaa phuthelwa fa pele ga me. Mme ke tlaa kgaoganya batho jaaka modisa a kgaoganya dinku le dipudi;
33 And he shall set the sheepe on his right hand, and the goates on the left.
Ke baya dinku ka fa lebogong le legolo, dipudi ka fa go la molema.
34 Then shall ye king say to them on his right hand, Come ye blessed of my father: take the inheritance of the kingdome prepared for you from the foundation of the world.
“Hong nna Kgosi ke tlaa raya ba ba ka fa lebogong la me le legolo ke re, ‘Tlang, basegofadiwa ba ga Rre mo Bogosing jo lo bo baakanyeditsweng go tsweng kwa tlholegong ya lefatshe.
35 For I was an hungred, and ye gaue me meate: I thirsted, and ye gaue me drinke: I was a stranger, and ye tooke me in vnto you.
Gonne ke ne ka bolawa ke tlala mme lwa mpha dijo; ke ne ka nyorwa mme lwa nnosa; ke ne ka nna moeng mme lwa ntaletsa mo malwapeng a lona;
36 I was naked, and ye clothed me: I was sicke, and ye visited me: I was in prison, and ye came vnto me.
“Ke ne ke sa apara mme lwa nkapesa; ke ne ke lwala ka ba ka nna mo kgolegelong, mme lwa tla go ntlhola.’
37 Then shall the righteous answere him, saying, Lord, when sawe we thee an hungred, and fed thee? or a thirst, and gaue thee drinke?
“Hong basiami ba tlaa fetola ba re, ‘Morena re kile ra go bona leng o bolailwe ke tlala mme ra go fa dijo? Kgotsa o nyorilwe mme ra go nosa?
38 And when sawe we thee a stranger, and tooke thee in vnto vs? or naked, and clothed thee?
Kgotsa o le moeng mme ra go thusa? Kgotsa o sa apara mme ra go apesa?
39 Or when sawe we thee sicke, or in prison, and came vnto thee?
Re kile ra go bona leng o lwala kgotsa o le mo kgolegelong mme ra go etela?’
40 And the King shall answere, and say vnto them, Verely I say vnto you, in as much as ye haue done it vnto one of the least of these my brethre, ye haue done it to me.
“Mme nna Kgosi, ke tlaa lo raya ke re, ‘E rile fa lo go direla’ bakaulengwe ba, lwa bo lo go ntirela!
41 Then shall he say vnto them on ye left hand, Depart from me ye cursed, into euerlasting fire, which is prepared for the deuill and his angels. (aiōnios g166)
Hong ke tlaa gadimela ka fa go ba ba fa molemeng wa me ke re, ‘Tlong, lona ba lo hutsegileng, lo yeng kwa molelong o o sa khutleng, o o baakanyeditsweng diabolo le mewa e e maswe. (aiōnios g166)
42 For I was an hungred, and ye gaue me no meate: I thirsted, and ye gaue me no drinke:
Gonne ke ne ka bolawa ke tlala mme lwa seka lwa mpha dijo; ka nyorwa mme lwa seka lwa nneela le fa e le sepe go se nwa.
43 I was a stranger, and ye tooke me not in vnto you: I was naked, and ye clothed me not: sicke, and in prison, and ye visited me not.
Ka nna moeng mme lwa seka lwa ntshola; ke ne ke sa apara mme ga lo a ka lwa nkapesa; ka lwala, ka ba ka nna mo kgolegelong ga lo a ka lwa tla go ntlhola.’
44 Then shall they also answere him, saying, Lord, when sawe we thee an hungred, or a thirst, or a stranger, or naked, or sicke, or in prison, and did not minister vnto thee?
“Hong ba tlaa fetola ba re ‘Morena, re kile ra go bona leng o bolailwe ke tlala kgotsa o tshwerwe ke lenyora kgotsa o le moeng kgotsa o sa apara kgotsa o lwala kgotsa o le mo kgolegelong mme ra se ka ra go thusa?’
45 Then shall he answere them, and say, Verely I say vnto you, in as much as ye did it not to one of the least of these, ye did it not to me.
“Mme ke tlaa araba ke re, ‘E rile fa lo gana go direla bakaulengwe ba ba botlana ba, lo no lo gana go direla nna.’
