Matthew 25
1 “Then the Kingdom of Heaven will be like ten virgins who took their lamps and went out to meet the bridegroom.
“Konsa, Wayòm syèl la tankou dis vyèj ki te pran lanp yo pou soti e rankontre jennonm k ap marye a.
2 Five of them were foolish, and five were wise.
Senk nan yo te manke sajès, men lòt senk yo te gen bon konprann.
3 Those who were foolish, when they took their lamps, took no oil with them,
Lè sila ki manke sajès yo te pran lanp yo, yo pa t pran lwil avèk yo.
4 but the wise took oil in their vessels with their lamps.
Men saj yo te pran lwil nan veso ansanm avèk lanp yo.
5 Now while the bridegroom delayed, they all slumbered and slept.
Konsa, pandan jennonm nan t ap pran reta, yo tout te vin fatige, e dòmi te pran yo.
6 But at midnight there was a cry, ‘Behold! The bridegroom is coming! Come out to meet him!’
“Men a minwi, te gen yon gwo kri: ‘Men gade, jennonm k ap marye a parèt! Vin rankontre li.’
7 Then all those virgins arose, and trimmed their lamps.
“Alò, tout vyèj sa yo te leve pou prepare lanp pa yo.
8 The foolish said to the wise, ‘Give us some of your oil, for our lamps are going out.’
Men sila ki pa t saj yo te di a sila ki te pridan yo: ‘Bannou kèk nan lwil pa nou an, paske lanp nou yo ap etenn.’
9 But the wise answered, saying, ‘What if there isn’t enough for us and you? You go rather to those who sell, and buy for yourselves.’
“Men saj yo te reponn: ‘Non, pwiske si nou fè sa, nou p ap rete kont pou nou. Pito nou ale kote machann pou nou achte pou tèt nou.’
10 While they went away to buy, the bridegroom came, and those who were ready went in with him to the wedding feast, and the door was shut.
“Konsa, pandan yo t ap pral achte, jennonm nan te vin parèt e sila ki te prepare yo te antre avè l nan fèt maryaj la. Epi pòt la te vin fèmen.
11 Afterward the other virgins also came, saying, ‘Lord, Lord, open to us.’
“Pita lòt vyèj yo te vini. Yo te di: ‘Senyè, Senyè, louvri pòt la pou nou.
12 But he answered, ‘Most certainly I tell you, I don’t know you.’
“Men li te reponn yo konsa: ‘Anverite mwen di nou, mwen pa rekonèt nou.’
13 Watch therefore, for you don’t know the day nor the hour in which the Son of Man is coming.
“Pou sa, fè atansyon, paske nou pa konnen ni jou, ni lè.
14 “For it is like a man going into another country, who called his own servants and entrusted his goods to them.
“Konsa, li menm jan avèk yon nonm ki fenk pare pou fè yon vwayaj. Li rele esklav li yo, e konfye tout sa li posede nan men yo menm.
15 To one he gave five talents, to another two, to another one, to each according to his own ability. Then he went on his journey.
A youn li te bay senk talan (yon gwo sòm dajan) a yon lòt de, e a yon lòt, youn, selon kapasite ke chak te genyen. Epi li te sòti pou fè vwayaj la.
16 Immediately he who received the five talents went and traded with them, and made another five talents.
Imedyatman, sila ki te resevwa senk talan yo te fè afè avèk yo, e te ranmase yon lòt senk talan anplis.
17 In the same way, he also who got the two gained another two.
“Menm jan an, sila ki te resevwa de talan yo te vin jwenn de lòt.
18 But he who received the one talent went away and dug in the earth and hid his lord’s money.
Men sila ki te resevwa yon sèl talan an te ale fouye yon twou nan tè pou te sere lajan mèt li.
19 “Now after a long time the lord of those servants came, and settled accounts with them.
“Apre anpil tan, mèt a esklav sa yo te vini pou te regle kont avèk yo.
20 He who received the five talents came and brought another five talents, saying, ‘Lord, you delivered to me five talents. Behold, I have gained another five talents in addition to them.’
Sila ki te resevwa senk talan yo te vin pote li avèk yon lòt senk talan ankò, epi te di: ‘Mèt, ou te fè m konfyans ak senk talan. Ou wè, mwen fè l rapòte senk talan anplis.’
21 “His lord said to him, ‘Well done, good and faithful servant. You have been faithful over a few things, I will set you over many things. Enter into the joy of your lord.’
“Mèt li te di li: ‘Byen fèt, bon e fidèl sèvitè. Ou te fidèl avèk yon ti kras bagay. M ap fè ou responsab anpil bagay. Antre nan lajwa a mèt ou.’
22 “He also who got the two talents came and said, ‘Lord, you delivered to me two talents. Behold, I have gained another two talents in addition to them.’
“Sila ki te resevwa de talan yo te vini epi te di: ‘Mèt, ou te fè m konfyans ak de talan. Ou wè, mwen fè l rapòte de talan anplis.’
23 “His lord said to him, ‘Well done, good and faithful servant. You have been faithful over a few things. I will set you over many things. Enter into the joy of your lord.’
“Mèt li te di li: ‘Byen fèt, bon sèvitè fidèl la. Ou te fidèl avèk yon ti kras bagay. M ap fè ou responsab anpil bagay. Antre nan lajwa a mèt ou.’
24 “He also who had received the one talent came and said, ‘Lord, I knew you that you are a hard man, reaping where you didn’t sow, and gathering where you didn’t scatter.
“Konsa, sila osi ki te resevwa yon sèl talan an te vini e te di: ‘Mèt, mwen te byen konprann ke ou menm se te yon mèt ki di; ke ou rekòlte kote ou pa plante, e ranmase kote ou pa simen.
25 I was afraid, and went away and hid your talent in the earth. Behold, you have what is yours.’
Epi mwen te krent, e te ale sere talan an nan tè. Gade byen, ou twouve sa ki pou ou a.’
26 “But his lord answered him, ‘You wicked and slothful servant. You knew that I reap where I didn’t sow, and gather where I didn’t scatter.
“Men mèt li te reponn li e te di: ‘Esklav malveyan e parese! Ou te konnen ke mwen rekòlte kote mwen pa plante, e ranmase kote mwen pa simen.
27 You ought therefore to have deposited my money with the bankers, and at my coming I should have received back my own with interest.
Pou sa, ou te dwe mete kòb mwen an labank pou lè m rive mwen ta kapab resevwa l avèk enterè.
28 Take away therefore the talent from him and give it to him who has the ten talents.
“Konsa, retire talan an nan men li, epi bay li a sila a ki gen dis talan yo.
29 For to everyone who has will be given, and he will have abundance, but from him who doesn’t have, even that which he has will be taken away.
Paske a sila a ki genyen an, l ap resevwa plis e l ap gen an abondans, men pou sila a ki pa genyen an, menm sa li genyen an ap retire nan men l.
30 Throw out the unprofitable servant into the outer darkness, where there will be weeping and gnashing of teeth.’
Voye esklav initil sila a nan fon tenèb, nan plas kote ap genyen kriye ak manje dan.’
31 “But when the Son of Man comes in his glory, and all the holy angels with him, then he will sit on the throne of his glory.
“Men lè Fis a Lòm nan vini nan tout glwa Li avèk tout zanj Li yo, Li va chita sou twòn glwa pa Li a.
32 Before him all the nations will be gathered, and he will separate them one from another, as a shepherd separates the sheep from the goats.
Tout nasyon yo va rasanble devan Li. E Li va separe yo youn de lòt, kon yon gadyen patiraj separe mouton avèk kabrit.
33 He will set the sheep on his right hand, but the goats on the left.
Konsa, l ap mete mouton yo adwat li, e kabrit yo agoch Li.
34 Then the King will tell those on his right hand, ‘Come, blessed of my Father, inherit the Kingdom prepared for you from the foundation of the world;
“Epi Wa la va di a sila ki adwat li yo: ‘Vini, nou menm ki beni pa Papa m; eritye wayòm nan ki te prepare pou nou depi fondasyon mond lan.
35 for I was hungry and you gave me food to eat. I was thirsty and you gave me drink. I was a stranger and you took me in.
Paske Mwen te grangou, e nou te ban M bagay pou M manje. Mwen te swaf, e nou te ban M bwè. Mwen te yon etranje, e nou te envite M antre,
36 I was naked and you clothed me. I was sick and you visited me. I was in prison and you came to me.’
Mwen te touni, e nou te ban M rad. Mwen te malad e nou te vizite M. Mwen te nan prizon e nou te vin kote M.
37 “Then the righteous will answer him, saying, ‘Lord, when did we see you hungry and feed you, or thirsty and give you a drink?
“Epi jis yo ap di Li: ‘Senyè, kilè nou te wè Ou grangou e te bay Ou manje, ni swaf pou te bay Ou bwè?
38 When did we see you as a stranger and take you in, or naked and clothe you?
Epi kilè nou te wè Ou yon etranje, epi envite Ou antre, oubyen touni pou te bay Ou rad?
39 When did we see you sick or in prison and come to you?’
Epi kilè nou te wè Ou malad, e te vizite Ou; oubyen nan prizon pou te vizite Ou?’
40 “The King will answer them, ‘Most certainly I tell you, because you did it to one of the least of these my brothers, you did it to me.’
“Konsa, wa a va reponn yo: ‘Anverite, Mwen di nou menm jan ke nou te fè li a youn nan frè Mwen yo, nou te fè l a Mwen menm tou.’
41 Then he will say also to those on the left hand, ‘Depart from me, you cursed, into the eternal fire which is prepared for the devil and his angels; (aiōnios g166)
“Apre Li va di a sila ki agoch Li yo: ‘Sòti sou Mwen, nou menm ki modi, pou ale nan dife etènèl ki te prepare pou Satan avèk zanj li yo a. (aiōnios g166)
42 for I was hungry, and you didn’t give me food to eat; I was thirsty, and you gave me no drink;
Paske Mwen te grangou, men nou te refize ban M manje. Mwen te swaf, e nou pa t ban M bwè.
43 I was a stranger, and you didn’t take me in; naked, and you didn’t clothe me; sick, and in prison, and you didn’t visit me.’
Mwen te yon etranje, e nou pa t envite M antre, touni, e nou pa t ban M rad, nan prizon e nou pa t vizite M.
44 “Then they will also answer, saying, ‘Lord, when did we see you hungry, or thirsty, or a stranger, or naked, or sick, or in prison, and didn’t help you?’
“Alò yo menm va reponn: ‘Senyè, kilè nou te wè Ou grangou, oswa swaf, oswa yon etranje, touni, malad oubyen nan prizon, e nou pa t okipe Ou?’
45 “Then he will answer them, saying, ‘Most certainly I tell you, because you didn’t do it to one of the least of these, you didn’t do it to me.’
“Konsa L ap reponn yo: ‘Anverite Mwen di nou, menm jan ke nou pa t fè li pou youn nan pi piti nan sa yo, nou pa t fè l pou Mwen tou.’
