< Matthew 25 >
1 [Jesus continued by saying, “I will tell you something else about the time when I return from] heaven as king [MET]. [What will happen to many people who say that they know me will be] like [what happened to] ten virgins who took their lanterns and went to the place where they would meet a bridegroom [and go to his wedding celebration].
E'i ana knafina mona kumamo'a 10ni'a venenene omase mofanemo'za lampe tavizami'a eriri eriri huza, a' erinaku hia ne' ome tutagiha hunaku vu'naza kna hu'ne.
2 Five of the virgins were foolish and five of them were wise.
Mago 5fu'a vene omase mofane'mokizmia knare antahintahia omanene. Hagi mago 5fu'a vene omase mofane'mokizmia knare antahintahi me'ne.
3 The [virgins] who were foolish took their lanterns, but they did not take any [extra olive] oil [for] the lantern.
Hagi knare antahintahima omanenea mofane'mo'za rampe tavi zamia eri'nazanagi, mago'a masevena e'ori'naze.
4 But the [virgins] who were wise took oil in their flasks as well as in their lanterns.
Hu'neanagi knare antahintahima me'nea mofane'mo'za tafero zamifina mago'a masevena eririza rampe tavi zaminena vu'naze.
5 The bridegroom was delayed, [and it became late at night]. So all the virgins became sleepy and fell asleep.
Hagi a'ma erinaku'ma hu'nea nera kora omegeno zamu toko hige'za mase'naze.
6 In the middle of the night someone [woke them up by] shouting, ‘Hey! The bridegroom [is arriving]! Go outside and meet him!’
Hianagi kenage amu'nompi mago ne'mo kezatino, A'ma eri nera hago e'ne! Atiramita eme keho! Hige'za,
7 So all the virgins got up and trimmed their lantern wicks [so that they would burn properly].
anante ana maka mofanemo'za oti'za tavizmi erira hu'naze.
8 The foolish virgins said to the wise ones, ‘Give us some of your [olive] oil, because our lanterns are about to go out!’
Anante knare antahintahima omane'nemo'za, knare antahintahima me'nemokizmia zmantahige'za, mago'a masavena tamiho, na'ankure tavi timo'a asu nehie huza hazage'za,
9 The wise virgins replied, ‘[No, because] there might not be enough oil for our lanterns and for yours. Go to a store and buy some for yourselves!’
knare antahintahima eri'namo'za kenona huzamante'za, i'o masave timo'a tamagri'ene tagri'enena knarera huorantegosianki, feno nontega vuta, tamagra su'zana ome miza seho hu'naze.
10 But while [the foolish virgins] were going to buy [some oil], the bridegroom arrived. So the [wise virgins], who were ready, went with the bridegroom to the wedding hall [where the bride was waiting]. Then the door was closed {someone closed the door [of that hall]}.
Ana masave mizasenaku nevazageno, a'ma eriku'ma hu'nea nera ege'za, tro'ma hu'za mani'naza mofa'nemo'za, aravehu ne'zama retro hunte'nea nompi agrane marerizageno kahana erigi'ne.
11 Later, the rest of the virgins came [to the hall] and they called [to the bridegroom], ‘Sir, open [the door] for us!’
Henka ana knare antahizazmi omane 5fu'a mofa'nemo'za e'za Ramoke, Ramoke kahana anagiranto hu'naze.
12 But he said [to them], ‘The truth is that I do not know you, so I [will not open the door for you]!’”
Hianagi kenona huzamanteno, tamage hu'na neramasmue, nagra tamagena antahina osu'noe.
13 [Then Jesus continued by saying], “So, in order that [this will not happen to you], keep expecting [that I will return], because you do not know when [MTY] [it will be].”
E'ina hu'negu kva huta maniho, na'ankure Vahe'mofo Mofavrema ete esiankna ontahi'naze.
14 “[When I return from heaven as king, I will deal with those who say that they have been serving me like] a man who was about to go on a long journey dealt with his servants. He called them together and gave them each some of his wealth [to invest and gain more money for him].
Mago'ane Jisasi'a anage hu'ne, mona kuma'mo'a amanahukna hu'ne, Mago ne'mo'a ru kaziga umanigeno enaku nehuno, eri'za vahe'a kehutru huno, zamagri'zmi avamente zago'a refako huzami'ne.
15 He gave them money according to their ability [to take care of it]. [For example], he gave one servant 5,000 dollars, he gave another servant 2,000 dollars, and he gave another servant 1,000 dollars. Then he left on his journey.
Hagi mago'mofona 5tauseni'a zago amino, mago'mofona 2 tauseni'a zago amino, magomofona 1tauseni zago ami'ne. Hanave zamimofo avamente refako huzamiteno, atreno afete kana vu'ne.
16 The servant who had received 5,000 dollars went immediately and used that money to gain 5,000 dollars more.
Anama kva amo'ma nevigeno, ame huno 5 tauseni'a zagoma eri'nea ne'mo'a, ana zagonuti eri'za erino mago'ane 5 tauseni'a zago eri fore hu'ne.
17 Similarly, the servant who had [received] 2,000 dollars gained two [thousand dollars] more.
Anahu kna huno 2 tauseni'a zago eri'nea ne'mo'a, mago'ane 2 tauseni'a zago erifore hu'ne.
18 But the servant who had received one [thousand dollars] went and dug a hole in the ground and hid the money there [to keep it safe].
Hu'neanagi 1 tauseni'a zagoma eri'nea eri'za ne'mo'a, mopafi keri ome kafino kva'amofo zagoa asente'ne.
19 After a long time the servants’ boss returned. He [called them together to] find out what they had done with his money.
Hagi zazakna kva zimimo'a umaniteno, eno kazokzo eri'za naga'a ke hutru huno, zagoma zami'nea zago eri fatgo huno kenaku zamantahige'ne.
20 The servant who had received 5,000 dollars brought two [bags, each containing] 5,000 dollars. He said, ‘Boss, you gave me 5,000 dollars to take care of. Look, I have gained 5,000 more!’
5 tauseni'a zagoma eri'nea eri'za ne'mo'a, mago'ene 5 tauseni'a zagoa eri agofetu huno eno amanage hu'ne. Ramoke kagra antahi naminkama 5 tauseni'a zagoma nami'nana zagoreti, mago'ane 5 tauseni'a zago eri agofetu hu'na zagoa erifore hu'noe higeno,
21 His boss replied, ‘[You are a very] good and faithful servant! [You have] done [very] well! You have faithfully handled a small [amount of money], so I will put you in charge of a lot of things. Come and be happy with me!’
kva'amo'a kenona hunteno, knare'zantfa hane, kagra knare hunka fatgo eri'za nere. Osi'a zantera knare hunka kegava hanku, Kagra kavare antesnugenka rama'a zante kegava krigahane. Hagi enka Nagrane muse eme huo hu'ne.
22 The servant who had [received] 2,000 dollars also came and said, ‘Boss, you gave me 2,000 dollars to take care of. Look, I have gained 2,000 more!’
Anante 2 tauseni'a zagoma eri'nea ne'mo eno amanage hu'ne, ramoka, antahi naminkama 2 tauseni'a zago nami'nantetira ko, ete 2 tauseni'a zago eriagofetu hu'noe higeno,
23 His boss replied, ‘You are a [very] good and faithful servant! You have done very well! You have faithfully handled a small [amount of money], so I will put you in charge of a lot of things. Come and be happy with me!’
kva'amo ke nona huno, knare'zantfa hane, kagra knare hunka fatgo eriza nere, osi'a zantera knare hunka kegava hanku, Nagra kavarentesnugenka rama'a zante ke kva krigahane. Hagi enka Nagranena musena eme huo hu'ne.
24 Then the servant who had received 1,000 dollars came. He said, ‘Boss, I [was afraid of you]. I knew that you are a man who does not do foolish things with his money. [You even] take [from others money] that does not really belong to you, [like a farmer who] harvests [grain from another man’s field] where he did not even plant [the seeds].
Anante 1tauseni'a zagoma eri'nea eri'za ne'mo eno amanage hu'ne, Ramoka kagra himamu ne' mani'nankena kage'na antahi'na hu'noe, kagra ohankre'nana hoza nevsagenka, avimza orani'nana ne'za nevasganku,
25 So because I was afraid [of what you would do to me if I did not make a profit from my business], I went out and hid your 1,000 dollars in the ground [to keep it safe]. Here, this is [the money] that belongs to you!’
kagoro hugante'na zagoka'a keri ome kafi'na mopafi asente'noreti, ama ana maka zago ka'a vati'na eri'na oanki ko higeno,
26 His boss replied, ‘You wicked, lazy servant! (You knew that I take [from others money] that does not really belong to me, [like a farmer who] harvests [grain from another man’s field] where I did not even plant [the seeds]!/Did you not know that I [take from others money that does not really belong to me, like a farmer] who harvests [grain from another man’s field] where I did not even plant [the seeds]?) [RHQ]
kva'amo kenona hunteno, kagra haviza hunka, eri'za e'ori ne' mani'nane. Kagra ko nagenka nantahinka hu'nane, ohankre'noa hoza nevasage'na, avimza orani'noa ne'za enerugu,
27 So then, you should have put my money [on deposit] in a bank, so that when I returned I would get it back with the interest [it earned]!’
kagra zagoni'a zago nompi ome ante'nankeno, mago'ane zagoa erifore nehige'na, ete eme eruresine.
28 [Then the boss said to his other servants], ‘Take the 1,000 dollars from him, and give it to [the servant] who has the 10,000 dollars!
E'ina hu'negu zagoa agripintira eritma, 10 tauseni'a zagoma eri'nemofo amiho hu'ne.
29 To those who [use well what] they have [received, God] will give more, and they will have plenty. But from those who [do] not [use well what they have received], even what they [already] have will be taken away.
Na'ankure mago'azama ante'nesamo'za mago'ane eneri'za, zamesi' nesiazana rama'a erigahaze. Hu'neanagi mago'a zama onte'nesimofompintira eri'nesnia zana eritregahie.
30 Furthermore, throw that worthless servant outside, into the darkness, where he will be [with those who are] wailing and gnashing their teeth [because they are in much pain].’”
Hagi ama kefo eri'za nera avreta fegi'a kumzu hanimpi ome matevuta atreho, e'i anampina vahe'mo'za zavi krafa nehu'za, zamave anikreki hugahaze.
31 “When I, the one who came from heaven, come again, I will be very radiant and [bring] all my angels with me. Then I will sit as a king on my wonderful throne [to judge people].
Hagi Vahe'mofo Mofavremo ete hanave'afine masa zama'afima mika ankero zaga'anema esuno'a, Agra masa nentake tra'are emanigahie.
32 People from all nations [MTY] will be gathered in front of me {[The angels] will gather in front of me people from all nations}. Then I will separate them, one from another, as a shepherd separates his sheep from his goats.
Mika kokankokati vea'mo'za Agri avure emeritru hanageno afu kva nemo, afu kevufinti memene sipisipi afutami refako hugantugma hiankna huno, zamazeri kantugma hugahie.
33 I will put [the righteous people] on my right and [the unrighteous ones on my left, as a] shepherd puts sheep [on one side] and goats [on the other side].
Sipisipi afu'tmina, Agra aza tamaga kaziga zmavrenenteno, meme afutamina aza hoga kaziga zamavarentegahie.
34 Then I will say to those on my right, ‘You people who have been blessed by my Father {whom my Father has blessed}, come! From the time he created the world, he has been preparing to allow you to [receive the blessings that he will give to all those] who let him rule their lives. [Now is the time for] you to receive [those blessings]
Anante kinimo'a azantmaga kazigama mani'namokizimigura amanage huno hugahie. Nafa'nimo'a asomu huramante'neanki, etma mona mopa tro osu'nenoma retro huramante'nea kuma emeriho hugahie.
35 [They belong to you], because you gave me something to eat when I was hungry. (OR, [They belong to you]. It is as though you gave me something to eat when I was hungry.) You gave me something to drink when I was thirsty. When I was a stranger [in your town], you invited me [to stay] in [your houses].
Na'ankure nagama'netegeta Nagrira ne'za namizage'na ne'noe. Tinku nave'nesigeta Nagrira tina namizage'na ne'noe. Nantu vahe Nagra neogetma nontamifi navrente'naze.
36 When I needed clothes [MTY], you gave me some. When I was sick, you took care of me. When I was in prison, you came to visit me.’
Navufa navapa mani'nogetma Nagrira kukena hunante'naze. Kri eri'nogeta Nagrira kegava hunante'naze, Kina nompi mani'nogeta, Nagrira eme nage'naze hanige'za,
37 Then the righteous people will reply, ‘Lord, when were you hungry and we saw you and gave you something to eat? When were you thirsty and we gave you something to drink?
anante fatgo vahe'mo'za ke nona hunte'za, Ramoke, nazumepaga kagakura nehanketa ne'zana kami'none? Inazupa tinkura kave'nesigeta, kamunkenka ne'nane?
38 When were you a stranger [in our town] and we invited you [to stay] in [our houses]? When did you need clothes and we gave you some?
Nazumepaga kagonkenka Kagra nantu vahera neanketa kavare nontifina kante'none? Nazupa Kagra kavufa kavapara mani'nanketa, kukena hugante'none?
39 When were you sick or in prison and we went to visit you?’ [We do not remember doing any of these things for you].
Nazumepaga kagonkenka, Kagra kria eri'nane, nazupa Kagra kina nompina mani'nanketa, ome kagenone?
40 I will reply, ‘The truth is that whatever you did for any one of your fellow believers, even an unimportant one, [it was as though] you did it for me.’
Kini ne'mo kenona huzmanteno amanage hugahie, tamage hu'na neramasamue, amama zamagima omane nafuhe'impinti mago zmimofoma nankna avu'ava huzmante'nazana, Nagri hunante'naze.
41 Then I will say to those on my left, ‘You people who have been cursed [by God] {whom God has cursed}, leave me! Go into the eternal fire that God has prepared for (the devil/Satan) and his angels! (aiōnios )
Nehuno anante aza hoga kazigama mani'namokizmia amanage huzmantegahie, tamagra kazusifi mani'naze, maniganeta kefo nemofone, ankero naga'amofoma retro'ma huzmante'nea tevava tevefi ufreho. (aiōnios )
42 [It is right for you to go there], because you did not give me anything to eat when I was hungry. You did not give me anything to drink when I was thirsty.
Na'ankure naga'ma netegeta magore hutma ne'zana namizage'na one'noe. Tinku nave'nesigeta magore hutma tina afi onami'naze.
43 You did not invite me into [your homes] when I was a stranger [in your town]. You did not give me any clothes when I needed them [MTY]. You did not take care of me when I was sick or in prison.’
Nantu vahe neogeta nontimifina navre onte'naze. Navufa navapama mani'nogetma kukena huonante'naze. Krima eri'noane, kina nompima mani'nogeta eme onage'naze.
44 They will answer, ‘Lord, when were you hungry or thirsty or a stranger or needing clothes or sick or in prison, and we did not help you?’
Ana vahe'mo'za kenona huntegahaze, Ramoka, nazu'mepa kagonkenka kagakura hu'nane, hifi tinkura kavesi'ne, hifi nantu vahera e'nane, hifi kavufa kavapa mani'nanketa, kukena huogante'none, hifi kria eri'nane, hifi kina nompina mani'nanketa kaza osu'none?
45 I will reply, ‘The truth is that whenever you did not do anything to help any one of [my people], [even if they were] unimportant people, [it was as though] you did not do anything [to help] me.’
Hanageno Agra ke nona huzmantegahie. Tamage hu'na neramasmue, amama zamagi omne'nea vahe'pinti, mago zmimofoma mago'zama huonte'nazana, Nagri huonante'naze.
46 Then those people [on my left] will go away to the place where [they] will be punished {[God] will punish them} eternally, but the righteous people will go to where they will live forever [with God].” (aiōnios )
Hanige'za ana vahe'mo'za manigane'za mani'vava zamatazampi vugahaze. Hianagi fatgo vahe'mo'za mani'vava mani'zampi vugahaze. (aiōnios )
