Matthew 25
1 “At that time the kingdom of heaven will be like ten virgins who took their lamps and went out to meet the bridegroom.
yā daśa kanyāḥ pradīpān gr̥hlatyō varaṁ sākṣāt karttuṁ bahiritāḥ, tābhistadā svargīyarājyasya sādr̥śyaṁ bhaviṣyati|
2 Five of them were wise, and five were foolish.
tāsāṁ kanyānāṁ madhyē pañca sudhiyaḥ pañca durdhiya āsan|
3 When those who were foolish took their lamps, they did not take oil with them,
yā durdhiyastāḥ pradīpān saṅgē gr̥hītvā tailaṁ na jagr̥huḥ,
4 but the wise took oil in their flasks along with their lamps.
kintu sudhiyaḥ pradīpān pātrēṇa tailañca jagr̥huḥ|
5 When the bridegroom was delayed, they all became drowsy and slept.
anantaraṁ varē vilambitē tāḥ sarvvā nidrāviṣṭā nidrāṁ jagmuḥ|
6 But in the middle of the night there was a shout: ‘Behold, the bridegroom is coming! Come out to meet him.’
anantaram arddharātrē paśyata vara āgacchati, taṁ sākṣāt karttuṁ bahiryātēti janaravāt
7 Then all the virgins rose and trimmed their lamps.
tāḥ sarvvāḥ kanyā utthāya pradīpān āsādayituṁ ārabhanta|
8 And the foolish ones said to the wise, ‘Give us some of your oil, for our lamps are going out.’
tatō durdhiyaḥ sudhiya ūcuḥ, kiñcit tailaṁ datta, pradīpā asmākaṁ nirvvāṇāḥ|
9 But the wise replied, ‘No, there will not be enough for us and for you. Instead, go to those who sell oil and buy some for yourselves.’
kintu sudhiyaḥ pratyavadan, dattē yuṣmānasmāṁśca prati tailaṁ nyūnībhavēt, tasmād vikrētr̥ṇāṁ samīpaṁ gatvā svārthaṁ tailaṁ krīṇīta|
10 But while they were on their way to buy it, the bridegroom came, and those who were ready went in with him to the wedding feast. Then the door was shut.
tadā tāsu krētuṁ gatāsu vara ājagāma, tatō yāḥ sajjitā āsan, tāstēna sākaṁ vivāhīyaṁ vēśma praviviśuḥ|
11 Afterward the other virgins also came, saying, ‘Lord, Lord, open the door for us.’
anantaraṁ dvārē ruddhē aparāḥ kanyā āgatya jagaduḥ, hē prabhō, hē prabhō, asmān prati dvāraṁ mōcaya|
12 But he answered, ‘Truly I say to you, I do not know you.’
kintu sa uktavān, tathyaṁ vadāmi, yuṣmānahaṁ na vēdmi|
13 Therefore keep watch, for you do not know the day or the hour in which the Son of Man is coming.
atō jāgrataḥ santastiṣṭhata, manujasutaḥ kasmin dinē kasmin daṇḍē vāgamiṣyati, tad yuṣmābhi rna jñāyatē|
14 “For it is just like a man about to go on a journey, who called his servants and entrusted his possessions to them.
aparaṁ sa ētādr̥śaḥ kasyacit puṁsastulyaḥ, yō dūradēśaṁ prati yātrākālē nijadāsān āhūya tēṣāṁ svasvasāmarthyānurūpam
15 To one he gave five talents, to another two talents, and to another one talent, each according to his ability. And he immediately went on his journey.
ēkasmin mudrāṇāṁ pañca pōṭalikāḥ anyasmiṁśca dvē pōṭalikē aparasmiṁśca pōṭalikaikām itthaṁ pratijanaṁ samarpya svayaṁ pravāsaṁ gatavān|
16 The man who had received the five talents went and traded with them, and made five more talents.
anantaraṁ yō dāsaḥ pañca pōṭalikāḥ labdhavān, sa gatvā vāṇijyaṁ vidhāya tā dviguṇīcakāra|
17 In the same way, the man who had received the two talents also earned two more.
yaśca dāsō dvē pōṭalikē alabhata, sōpi tā mudrā dviguṇīcakāra|
18 But the man who had received the one talent went and dug a hole in the ground and hid his master's money.
kintu yō dāsa ēkāṁ pōṭalikāṁ labdhavān, sa gatvā bhūmiṁ khanitvā tanmadhyē nijaprabhōstā mudrā gōpayāñcakāra|
19 “After a long time the master of those servants came and settled accounts with them.
tadanantaraṁ bahutithē kālē gatē tēṣāṁ dāsānāṁ prabhurāgatya tairdāsaiḥ samaṁ gaṇayāñcakāra|
20 The man who had received the five talents came to him and brought the other five talents, saying, ‘Master, yoʋ entrusted me with five talents; behold, I have earned five more talents besides them.’
tadānīṁ yaḥ pañca pōṭalikāḥ prāptavān sa tā dviguṇīkr̥tamudrā ānīya jagāda; hē prabhō, bhavatā mayi pañca pōṭalikāḥ samarpitāḥ, paśyatu, tā mayā dviguṇīkr̥tāḥ|
21 His master said to him, ‘Well done, good and faithful servant! Yoʋ have been faithful over a few things; I will set yoʋ over many things. Enter into the joy of yoʋr master.’
tadānīṁ tasya prabhustamuvāca, hē uttama viśvāsya dāsa, tvaṁ dhanyōsi, stōkēna viśvāsyō jātaḥ, tasmāt tvāṁ bahuvittādhipaṁ karōmi, tvaṁ svaprabhōḥ sukhasya bhāgī bhava|
22 The man who had received the two talents also came to him and said, ‘Master, yoʋ entrusted me with two talents; behold, I have earned two more talents besides them.’
tatō yēna dvē pōṭalikē labdhē sōpyāgatya jagāda, hē prabhō, bhavatā mayi dvē pōṭalikē samarpitē, paśyatu tē mayā dviguṇīkr̥tē|
23 His master said to him, ‘Well done, good and faithful servant! Yoʋ have been faithful over a few things; I will set yoʋ over many things. Enter into the joy of yoʋr master.’
tēna tasya prabhustamavōcat, hē uttama viśvāsya dāsa, tvaṁ dhanyōsi, stōkēna viśvāsyō jātaḥ, tasmāt tvāṁ bahudraviṇādhipaṁ karōmi, tvaṁ nijaprabhōḥ sukhasya bhāgī bhava|
24 Then the man who had received the one talent came to him and said, ‘Master, I knew that yoʋ were a hard man, reaping where yoʋ did not sow and gathering where yoʋ scattered no seed.
anantaraṁ ya ēkāṁ pōṭalikāṁ labdhavān, sa ētya kathitavān, hē prabhō, tvāṁ kaṭhinanaraṁ jñātavān, tvayā yatra nōptaṁ, tatraiva kr̥tyatē, yatra ca na kīrṇaṁ, tatraiva saṁgr̥hyatē|
25 So I was afraid and went and hid yoʋr talent in the ground. Behold, yoʋ have what is yoʋrs.’
atōhaṁ saśaṅkaḥ san gatvā tava mudrā bhūmadhyē saṁgōpya sthāpitavān, paśya, tava yat tadēva gr̥hāṇa|
26 But his master answered him, ‘Yoʋ evil and lazy servant! Yoʋ knew, did yoʋ, that I reap where I have not sown and gather where I have scattered no seed?
tadā tasya prabhuḥ pratyavadat rē duṣṭālasa dāsa, yatrāhaṁ na vapāmi, tatra chinadmi, yatra ca na kirāmi, tatrēva saṁgr̥hlāmīti cēdajānāstarhi
27 Then yoʋ should have deposited my money with the bankers, and when I came I would have received what is mine with interest.
vaṇikṣu mama vittārpaṇaṁ tavōcitamāsīt, yēnāhamāgatya vr̥dvyā sākaṁ mūlamudrāḥ prāpsyam|
28 Therefore take the talent from him and give it to the one who has ten talents.
atōsmāt tāṁ pōṭalikām ādāya yasya daśa pōṭalikāḥ santi tasminnarpayata|
29 For everyone who has will be given more, and he will have an abundance. But the one who does not have, even what he has will be taken away from him.
yēna vardvyatē tasminnaivārpiṣyatē, tasyaiva ca bāhulyaṁ bhaviṣyati, kintu yēna na vardvyatē, tasyāntikē yat kiñcana tiṣṭhati, tadapi punarnēṣyatē|
30 And throw that worthless servant into the outer darkness. In that place there will be weeping and gnashing of teeth.’
aparaṁ yūyaṁ tamakarmmaṇyaṁ dāsaṁ nītvā yatra sthānē krandanaṁ dantagharṣaṇañca vidyētē, tasmin bahirbhūtatamasi nikṣipata|
31 “When the Son of Man comes in his glory, and all the holy angels with him, he will sit down on his throne of glory.
yadā manujasutaḥ pavitradūtān saṅginaḥ kr̥tvā nijaprabhāvēnāgatya nijatējōmayē siṁhāsanē nivēkṣyati,
32 All the nations will be gathered before him, and he will separate them from one another as a shepherd separates the sheep from the goats.
tadā tatsammukhē sarvvajātīyā janā saṁmēliṣyanti| tatō mēṣapālakō yathā chāgēbhyō'vīn pr̥thak karōti tathā sōpyēkasmādanyam itthaṁ tān pr̥thaka kr̥tvāvīn
33 He will set the sheep on his right and the goats on his left.
dakṣiṇē chāgāṁśca vāmē sthāpayiṣyati|
34 Then the King will say to those on his right, ‘Come, you who are blessed by my Father, inherit the kingdom prepared for you from the foundation of the world.
tataḥ paraṁ rājā dakṣiṇasthitān mānavān vadiṣyati, āgacchata mattātasyānugrahabhājanāni, yuṣmatkr̥ta ā jagadārambhat yad rājyam āsāditaṁ tadadhikuruta|
35 For I was hungry, and you gave me something to eat; I was thirsty, and you gave me something to drink; I was a stranger, and you took me in;
yatō bubhukṣitāya mahyaṁ bhōjyam adatta, pipāsitāya pēyamadatta, vidēśinaṁ māṁ svasthānamanayata,
36 I was naked, and you clothed me; I was sick, and you looked after me; I was in prison, and you came to visit me.’
vastrahīnaṁ māṁ vasanaṁ paryyadhāpayata, pīḍītaṁ māṁ draṣṭumāgacchata, kārāsthañca māṁ vīkṣituma āgacchata|
37 Then the righteous will answer him, ‘Lord, when did we see yoʋ hungry and feed yoʋ, or thirsty and give yoʋ something to drink?
tadā dhārmmikāḥ prativadiṣyanti, hē prabhō, kadā tvāṁ kṣudhitaṁ vīkṣya vayamabhōjayāma? vā pipāsitaṁ vīkṣya apāyayāma?
38 When did we see yoʋ as a stranger and take yoʋ in, or naked and clothe yoʋ?
kadā vā tvāṁ vidēśinaṁ vilōkya svasthānamanayāma? kadā vā tvāṁ nagnaṁ vīkṣya vasanaṁ paryyadhāpayāma?
39 When did we see yoʋ sick or in prison and come to visit yoʋ?’
kadā vā tvāṁ pīḍitaṁ kārāsthañca vīkṣya tvadantikamagacchāma?
40 The King will answer them, ‘Truly I say to you, inasmuch as you did it to one of the least of these my brothers, you did it to me.’
tadānīṁ rājā tān prativadiṣyati, yuṣmānahaṁ satyaṁ vadāmi, mamaitēṣāṁ bhrātr̥ṇāṁ madhyē kañcanaikaṁ kṣudratamaṁ prati yad akuruta, tanmāṁ pratyakuruta|
41 “Then he will say to those on his left, ‘Depart from me, you who are accursed, into the eternal fire prepared for the devil and his angels. (aiōnios g166)
paścāt sa vāmasthitān janān vadiṣyati, rē śāpagrastāḥ sarvvē, śaitānē tasya dūtēbhyaśca yō'nantavahnirāsādita āstē, yūyaṁ madantikāt tamagniṁ gacchata| (aiōnios g166)
42 For I was hungry, and you did not give me anything to eat; I was thirsty, and you did not give me anything to drink;
yatō kṣudhitāya mahyamāhāraṁ nādatta, pipāsitāya mahyaṁ pēyaṁ nādatta,
43 I was a stranger, and you did not take me in; I was naked, and you did not clothe me; I was sick and in prison, and you did not look after me.’
vidēśinaṁ māṁ svasthānaṁ nānayata, vasanahīnaṁ māṁ vasanaṁ na paryyadhāpayata, pīḍitaṁ kārāsthañca māṁ vīkṣituṁ nāgacchata|
44 Then they too will answer, ‘Lord, when did we see yoʋ hungry or thirsty or as a stranger or naked or sick or in prison, and not take care of yoʋ?’
tadā tē prativadiṣyanti, hē prabhō, kadā tvāṁ kṣudhitaṁ vā pipāsitaṁ vā vidēśinaṁ vā nagnaṁ vā pīḍitaṁ vā kārāsthaṁ vīkṣya tvāṁ nāsēvāmahi?
45 He will answer them, ‘Truly I say to you, inasmuch as you did not do it to one of the least of these, neither did you do it to me.’
tadā sa tān vadiṣyati, tathyamahaṁ yuṣmān bravīmi, yuṣmābhirēṣāṁ kañcana kṣōdiṣṭhaṁ prati yannākāri, tanmāṁ pratyēva nākāri|
