< Matthew 25 >

1 ‘Then the kingdom of heaven will be like ten bridesmaids who took their lamps and went out to meet the groom.
“He wode salo kawotethay bantta kuraaziya oykkidi, machcho ehanaw bida addiya mokkanaw keyida tammu geela7ota daanees.
2 Five of them were foolish, and five were prudent.
Enttafe ichchashati eeya, qassi ichchashati cincca.
3 The foolish ones took their lamps, but took no oil with them;
Eeyati kuraaze oykkidosona, shin hara lambba oykkibookkona.
4 while the prudent ones, besides taking their lamps, took oil in their jars.
Shin cinccati bantta kuraaziyanne hara guzha lambba oykkidosona.
5 As the groom was late in coming, they all became drowsy, and slept.
Machchiw ekkeyssi gam77in, he geela7oti banttana dhiskkoy oykkin dhiskkidosona.
6 But at midnight a shout was raised – “The groom is coming! Come out to meet him!”
“Giddi bilahe gidiya wode, ‘Hekko, machchiw eheyssi gakkis, iya mokkanaw keyite’ yaagiya gita cabboy si7ettis.
7 Then all the bridesmaids woke up and trimmed their lamps,
“He wode he geela7oti ubbay barkkidi, bantta kuraaziya giigisidosona.
8 and the foolish said to the prudent “Give us some of your oil; our lamps are going out.”
Eeyati cinccatakko, ‘Nu kuraazey to7ana haniya gisho, hintte lambbaafe nuus immerkketi’ yaagidosona.
9 But the prudent ones answered “No, There may not be enough for you and for us. Go instead to those who sell it, and buy for yourselves.”
“Shin cinccati enttako zaaridi, ‘Akkay, nuusinne hinttes gidiya lambbi baawa. Hessa gisho, hinttew bidi shammidi ekkite’ yaagidosona.
10 But while they were on their way to buy it, the groom came; and the bridesmaids who were ready went in with him to the banquet, and the door was shut.
Eeya geela7oti lambba shammanaw bin, machchiw ekkeyssi puttu gis. Giigeti uttida ichchashu geela7oti iyara issife yaagano keethaa gelidosona; kareykka gorddetti aggis.
11 Afterwards the other bridesmaids came. “Sir, Sir,” they said, “open the door to us!”
“Guyeppe hankko geela7oti yidi, ‘Godaw, godaw, nuus dooyarkii’ yaagidosona.
12 But the groom answered “I tell you, I do not know you.”
“Shin I enttako zaaridi, ‘Taani hinttew tuma odays; ta hinttena erikke!’
13 Therefore watch, since you know neither the day nor the hour.
“Hiza, Asa Na7ay yaana gallasaa woykko saatiya hintte eronna gisho barkkidi naagite.
14 ‘For it is as though a man, going on his travels, called his servants, and gave his property into their charge.
“Xoossaa kawotethay ba oosanchchota xeegidi baw de7iyabaa enttaw sheedhdhidi oge baanaw keyida uraa daanees.
15 He gave five bags of gold to one, two to another, and one bag to a third, in proportion to the ability of each. Then he set out on his travels.
Enttaw huu7en huu7en entta wolqqaa mela issuwas ichchashu karxiite bira, issuwas nam77u karxiite bira qassi issuwas issi karxiite bira immidi ba ogiya bis.
16 The servant who had received the five bags of gold went at once and traded with it, and made another five bags.
Ichchashu karxiite bira ekkida aylley sohuwara bidi zal77idi, hara ichchashu karxiite bira wodhisis.
17 So, too, the servant who had received the two bags of gold made another two bags.
Hessadakka, qassi nam77u karxiite bira ekkida aylley hara nam77u karxiite bira wodhisis.
18 But the servant who had received the one bag went and dug a hole in the ground, and hid his master’s money.
Shin issi karxiite bira ekkidayssi bidi, olla bookkidi, ba godaa miishiya moogis.
19 After a long time the master of those servants returned, and settled accounts with them.
“Daro wodeppe guye he aylleta goday yidi, ba miishiya enttara salla77is.
20 The servant who had received the five bags of gold came up and brought five bags more. “Sir,” he said, “you entrusted me with five bags of gold; look, I have made another five bags!”
Ichchashu karxiite bira ekkida aylley yidi, hara ichchashu karxiite bira ehidi, ‘Ta godaw, neeni taw ichchashu karxiite bira immadasa. Shin taani hara ichchashu karxiite bira wodhisas’ yaagis.
21 “Well done, good, trustworthy servant!” said his master. “You have been trustworthy with a small sum; now I will place a large one in your hands; come and share your master’s joy!”
Iya goday, ‘Zambboy! Neeni lo77onne ammanthiya aylle; neeni guuthaban ammanettadasa. Taani nena darobaa bolla shuumana; haa gelada ne godaara ufaytta’ yaagis.
22 Then the one who had received the two bags of gold came up and said “Sir, you entrusted me with two bags pounds; look, I have made another two!”
“Qassi nam77u karxiite bira ekkidayssi yidi, ‘Ta godaw, neeni taw nam77u karxiite bira immadasa. Shin taani hara nam77u karxiite bira wodhisas’ yaagis.
23 “Well done, good, trustworthy servant!” said his master. “You have been trustworthy with a small sum; now I will place a large one in your hands; come and share your master’s joy!”
Iya goday, ‘Zambboy! Neeni lo77onne ammanthiya aylle; neeni guuthaban ammanettadasa. Taani nena darobaa bolla shuumana; haa gelada ne godaara ufaytta’ yaagis.
24 The man who had received the single bag of gold came up, too, and said “Sir, I knew that you were a hard man; you reap where you have not sown, and gather up where you have not winnowed;
“Qassi issi karxiite bira ekkidayssi yidi, ‘Ta godaw, neeni zeronna bessafe cakkeyssanne dharcconna bessafe maxiya iita asi gideyssa taani erays.
25 and, in my fear, I went and hid your money in the ground; look, here is what belongs to you!”
Hessa gisho, yayyada ne biraa biittan moogas. Ne miishey hayssish’ yaagis.
26 “You lazy, worthless servant!” was his master’s reply. “You knew that I reap where I have not sown, and gather up where I have not winnowed?
“Iya goday zaaridi, ‘Ha iita azalla aylliyaw, taani zeronna bessafe cakkeyssanne dharcconna bessafe maxiya asi gideyssa eradasa.
27 Then you ought to have placed my money in the hands of bankers, and I, on my return, should have received my money, with interest.
Yaatin, neeni ta miishiya bankken wothidabaa gidiyakko, taani simmiya wode ta miishiya wodhera ekkanayssa diggadasa.
28 Therefore,” he continued, “take away from him the one bag of gold, and give it to the one who has the ten bags.
Hessa gisho, miishiya iyappe ekkidi, tammu karxiite biri de7eyssas immite.
29 For, to him who has, more will be given, and he will have abundance; but, as for him who has nothing, even what he has will be taken away from him.
Ays giikko, de7iya ubbaas guzhettananne darana. Shin baynnayssafe hari attoshin, he iyaw de7iya guuthiyaka ekettana.
30 As for the useless servant, put him out into the darkness outside, where there will be weeping and grinding of teeth.”
Ha maaddonna aylliya kare dhumaa kessi yeggite. Yan iyaw yeehonne achche garccethi gidana’ yaagis.
31 ‘When the Son of Man has come in his glory and all the angels with him, then he will take his seat on his throne of glory;
“Asa Na7ay, kiitanchcho ubbatara, ba bonchchuwara yaa wode I ba bonchcho kawota araata bolla uttana.
32 and all the nations will be gathered before him, and he will separate the people – just as a shepherd separates sheep from goats –
Biittan de7iya asi ubbay iya sinthe shiiqana. Henthanchchoy dorssata deeshatappe shaakkeyssada I he asaa nam77an shaakkana.
33 placing the sheep on his right hand, and the goats on his left.
Qassi dorssata ushachcha baggara deeshata haddirssa baggara essana.
34 Then the king will say to those on his right “Come, you who are blessed by my Father, enter into possession of the kingdom prepared for you ever since the beginning of the world.
“Hessafe guye, kawoy ushachcha baggara de7eyssatakko hayssada yaagana: ‘Ta Aaway anjjidayssato, haa yidi sa7ay medhettiya wode hinttew giigida kawotethaa laattite.
35 For, when I was hungry, you gave me food; when I was thirsty, you gave me drink; when I was a stranger, you took me to your homes;
Ays giikko, taani koshattin muzideta, saamottin ushshideta, erettona imatha asi gidada bin mokkideta,
36 when I was naked, you clothed me; when I fell ill, you visited me; and when I was in prison, you came to me.”
kallottin mayzideta, harggettin harggisideta, qashettin tana oychchideta’ yaagana.
37 Then the righteous will answer “Lord, when did we see you hungry, and feed you? Or thirsty, and give you a drink?
“Hessafe guye, xilloti zaaridi, ‘Godaw, neeni koshattin awude be7idi muzidoo? Woykko neeni saamottin awude be7idi ushshidoo?
38 When did we see you a stranger, and take you to our homes? Or naked, and clothe you?
Neeni imathe gidada yin awude be7idi mokkidoo? Woykko neeni kallottin awude mayzidoo?
39 When did we see you ill, or in prison, and come to you?”
Neeni harggin woykko qashettin neekko bidi nena awude oychchidoo?’ yaagana.
40 And the king will reply “I tell you, as often as you did it to one of these my brothers or sisters, however unimportant they seemed, you did it to me.”
Kawoy zaaridi, ‘Taani hinttew tuma odays; hintte tana kaalliya ha ubbaafe guuxeyssas oothidayssa taw oothideta’ yaagana.
41 Then he will say to those on his left “Go from my presence, accursed, into the permanent fire which has been prepared for the devil and his angels. (aiōnios g166)
“He wode haddirssa baggara de7eyssatakko, ‘Ha qanggettidayssato, ta matappe haakkite. Xalahesinne iya kiitanchchotas giigida merinaa taman biite. (aiōnios g166)
42 For, when I was hungry, you gave me no food; when I was thirsty, you gave me no drink;
Ays giikko, koshattin tana muzibeekketa; saamottin ushshibeekketa.
43 when I was a stranger, you did not take me to your homes; when I was naked, you did not clothe me; and, when I was ill and in prison, you did not visit me.”
Taani imathe gidada bin tana mokkibeekketa, kallottin mayzibeekketa, harggininne qashettin tana oychchibeekketa’ yaagana.
44 Then they, in their turn, will answer “Lord, when did we see you hungry, or thirsty, or a stranger, or naked, or ill, or in prison, and did not supply your wants?”
“He wode entti, ‘Godaw, neeni koshattin woykko saamottin woykko imathe gidada bin woykko kallottin woykko harggin woykko qashettin be7idi nena awude maaddonna ixxido?’ yaagidi zaarana.
45 And then he will reply “I tell you, as often as you failed to do it to one of these, however unimportant, you failed to do it to me.”
“He wode kawoy zaaridi enttako, ‘Taani hinttew tuma odays; hintte tana kaalliya ha ubbaafe guuxeyssa maaddonna ixxidayssi, tana maaddonna ixxidayssa’ yaagana.
46 And these last will go away into lasting correction, but the righteous into lasting life.’ (aiōnios g166)
Hessa gisho, he asati merinaa pirddas qassi xilloti merinaa de7uwas baana” yaagis. (aiōnios g166)
