Matthew 25
1 'Then shall the reign of the heavens be likened to ten virgins, who, having taken their lamps, went forth to meet the bridegroom;
»Takrat bo nebeško kraljestvo podobno desetim devicam, ki so vzele svoje svetilke in šle, da srečajo ženina.
2 and five of them were prudent, and five foolish;
In pet izmed njih je bilo modrih, pet pa je bilo nespametnih.
3 they who were foolish having taken their lamps, did not take with themselves oil;
Te, ki so bile nespametne, so vzele svoje svetilke, niso pa z njimi vzele olja,
4 and the prudent took oil in their vessels, with their lamps.
toda modre so s svojimi svetilkami v svojih posodah vzele olje.
5 'And the bridegroom tarrying, they all nodded and were sleeping,
Medtem ko se je ženin mudil, so vse podremale in zaspale.
6 and in the middle of the night a cry was made, Lo, the bridegroom doth come; go ye forth to meet him.
Ob polnoči pa je nastalo vpitje: ›Glejte, ženin prihaja. Pojdite ven, da ga srečate.‹
7 'Then rose all those virgins, and trimmed their lamps,
Tedaj so vse te device vstale in očistile svoje svetilke.
8 and the foolish said to the prudent, Give us of your oil, because our lamps are going out;
In nespametne so rekle modrim: ›Dajte nam od svojega olja, kajti naše svetilke so ugasnile.‹
9 and the prudent answered, saying — Lest there may not be sufficient for us and you, go ye rather unto those selling, and buy for yourselves.
Toda modre so odgovorile, rekoč: ›Ne tako, da ne bi bilo premalo za nas in vas, toda pojdite raje k tem, ki prodajajo in si kupite zase.‹
10 'And while they are going away to buy, the bridegroom came, and those ready went in with him to the marriage-feasts, and the door was shut;
Medtem ko so odšle kupovat, pa je prišel ženin, in tiste, ki so bile pripravljene, so vstopile z njim v zakon in vrata so se zaprla.
11 and afterwards come also do the rest of the virgins, saying, Sir, sir, open to us;
Kasneje so prišle tudi druge device, rekoč: ›Gospod, Gospod, odpri nam.‹
12 and he answering said, Verily I say to you, I have not known you.
Toda odgovoril je in rekel: ›Resnično, povem vam: ›Ne poznam vas.‹‹
13 'Watch therefore, for ye have not known the day nor the hour in which the Son of Man doth come.
Stražite torej, kajti ne veste niti dneva niti ure, v kateri prihaja Sin človekov.
14 'For — as a man going abroad did call his own servants, and did deliver to them his substance,
Kajti nebeško kraljestvo je kakor človek, ki potuje v daljno deželo, ki je sklical svoje lastne služabnike ter jim izročil svoje dobrine.
15 and to one he gave five talents, and to another two, and to another one, to each according to his several ability, went abroad immediately.
In enemu je dal pet talentov, drugemu dva in naslednjemu enega; vsakemu človeku glede na njegove razne sposobnosti; in nemudoma je odšel na svojo pot.
16 'And he who did receive the five talents, having gone, wrought with them, and made other five talents;
Potem je tisti, ki je prejel pet talentov, šel in s temi trgoval in tem prislužil še pet drugih talentov.
17 in like manner also he who [received] the two, he gained, also he, other two;
In podobno je tisti, ki je prejel dva, prav tako pridobil še dva druga.
18 and he who did receive the one, having gone away, digged in the earth, and hid his lord's money.
Toda tisti, ki je prejel enega, je šel in kopál v zemljo in skril denar svojega gospodarja.
19 'And after a long time cometh the lord of those servants, and taketh reckoning with them;
Po dolgem času pride gospodar teh služabnikov in z njimi poračuna.
20 and he who did receive the five talents having come, brought other five talents, saying, 'Sir, five talents thou didst deliver to me; lo, other five talents did I gain besides them.
In tako je tisti, ki je prejel pet talentov, prišel in prinesel pet drugih talentov, rekoč: ›Gospodar, izročil si mi pet talentov. Glej, poleg teh sem pridobil še pet talentov.‹
21 'And his lord said to him, Well done, servant, good and faithful, over a few things thou wast faithful, over many things I will set thee; enter into the joy of thy lord.
Njegov gospodar mu je rekel: ›Dobro narejeno, ti dobri in zvesti služabnik. Zvest si bil nad malo stvarmi, naredil te bom za vladarja nad mnogimi stvarmi; vstopi v radost svojega gospodarja.‹
22 'And he who also did receive the two talents having come, said, Sir, two talents thou didst deliver to me; lo, other two talents I did gain besides them.
Tudi tisti, ki je prejel dva talenta, je prišel in rekel: ›Gospodar, izročil si mi dva talenta; glej, poleg teh sem pridobil še dva druga talenta.‹
23 'His lord said to him, Well done, servant, good and faithful, over a few things thou wast faithful, over many things I will set thee; enter into the joy of thy lord.
Njegov gospodar mu je rekel: ›Dobro narejeno, dobri in zvesti služabnik. Zvest si bil nad malo stvarmi, naredil te bom za vladarja nad mnogimi stvarmi; vstopi v radost svojega gospodarja.‹
24 'And he also who hath received the one talent having come, said, Sir, I knew thee, that thou art a hard man, reaping where thou didst not sow, and gathering from whence thou didst not scatter;
Potem je prišel tisti, ki je prejel en talent in rekel: ›Gospodar, poznal sem te, da si trd človek, žanješ, kjer nisi sejal in zbiraš, kjer nisi nastlal,
25 and having been afraid, having gone away, I hid thy talent in the earth; lo, thou hast thine own!
in sem se bal in sem šel ter tvoj talent skril v zemljo. Glej tukaj imaš, kar je tvojega.‹
26 'And his lord answering said to him, Evil servant, and slothful, thou hadst known that I reap where I did not sow, and I gather whence I did not scatter!
Njegov gospodar je odgovoril in mu rekel: ›Ti zlobni in leni služabnik, vedel si, da žanjem, kjer nisem sejal in zbiram tam, kjer nisem nastlal;
27 it behoved thee then to put my money to the money-lenders, and having come I had received mine own with increase.
dolžan si bil torej dati moj denar menjalcem in tedaj, ob mojem prihodu, bi jaz svojo lastnino prejel z obrestmi.‹
28 'Take therefore from him the talent, and give to him having the ten talents,
Vzemite mu torej talent in ga dajte temu, ki ima deset talentov.
29 for to every one having shall be given, and he shall have overabundance, and from him who is not having, even that which he hath shall be taken from him;
Kajti vsak, kdor ima, mu bo dano in bo imel obilje, toda od tistega, ki nima, bo vzeto proč celó to, kar ima.
30 and the unprofitable servant cast ye forth to the outer darkness; there shall be the weeping and the gnashing of the teeth.
Nekoristnega služabnika pa vrzite v zunanjo temo; tam bo jokanje in škripanje z zobmi.‹
31 'And whenever the Son of Man may come in his glory, and all the holy messengers with him, then he shall sit upon a throne of his glory;
Ko bo prišel Sin človekov v svoji slavi in vsi sveti angeli z njim, potem bo sédel na prestol svoje slave,
32 and gathered together before him shall be all the nations, and he shall separate them from one another, as the shepherd doth separate the sheep from the goats,
in pred njim bodo zbrani vsi narodi, in oddvojil jih bo ene od drugih, kakor pastir ločuje svoje ovce od koz;
33 and he shall set the sheep indeed on his right hand, and the goats on the left.
in ovce bo postavil na svojo desno roko, toda koze na levo.
34 'Then shall the king say to those on his right hand, Come ye, the blessed of my Father, inherit the reign that hath been prepared for you from the foundation of the world;
Tedaj bo Kralj rekel tistim na svoji desnici: ›Pridite, blagoslovljeni od mojega Očeta, podedujte kraljestvo, za vas pripravljeno od ustanovitve sveta, ‹
35 for I did hunger, and ye gave me to eat; I did thirst, and ye gave me to drink; I was a stranger, and ye received me;
kajti bil sem lačen in ste mi dali obrok; bil sem žejen in ste mi dali piti; bil sem tujec in ste me sprejeli;
36 naked, and ye put around me; I was infirm, and ye looked after me; in prison I was, and ye came unto me.
nag in ste me oblekli; bil sem bolan in ste me obiskali; bil sem v ječi in ste prišli k meni.‹
37 'Then shall the righteous answer him, saying, Lord, when did we see thee hungering, and we nourished? or thirsting, and we gave to drink?
Tedaj mu bodo pravični odgovorili, rekoč: ›Gospodar, kdaj smo te videli lačnega in te nahranili ali žejnega in [ti] dali piti?
38 and when did we see thee a stranger, and we received? or naked, and we put around?
Kdaj smo te videli tujca in te sprejeli? Ali nagega in te oblekli?
39 and when did we see thee infirm, or in prison, and we came unto thee?
Ali kdaj smo te videli bolnega ali v ječi in prišli k tebi?‹
40 'And the king answering, shall say to them, Verily I say to you, Inasmuch as ye did [it] to one of these my brethren — the least — to me ye did [it].
In kralj jim bo odgovoril in rekel: ›Resnično, povem vam: ›V kolikor ste to storili enemu najmanjšemu izmed teh mojih bratov, ste to storili meni.‹‹
41 Then shall he say also to those on the left hand, Go ye from me, the cursed, to the fire, the age-during, that hath been prepared for the Devil and his messengers; (aiōnios g166)
Tedaj bo prav tako rekel tem na levici: ›Odidite od mene, vi prekleti, v večni ogenj, pripravljen za hudiča in njegove angele; (aiōnios g166)
42 for I did hunger, and ye gave me not to eat; I did thirst, and ye gave me not to drink;
kajti lačen sem bil, pa mi niste dali obroka; žejen sem bil, pa mi niste dali piti;
43 a stranger I was, and ye did not receive me; naked, and ye put not around me; infirm, and in prison, and ye did not look after me.
tujec sem bil, pa me niste sprejeli; nag in me niste oblekli; bolan in v ječi, pa me niste obiskali.‹
44 'Then shall they answer, they also, saying, Lord, when did we see thee hungering, or thirsting, or a stranger, or naked, or infirm, or in prison, and we did not minister to thee?
Tedaj mu bodo tudi oni odgovorili, rekoč: ›Gospodar, kdaj smo te videli lačnega ali žejnega ali tujca ali nagega ali bolnega ali v ječi in ti nismo postregli?‹
45 'Then shall he answer them, saying, Verily I say to you, Inasmuch as ye did [it] not to one of these, the least, ye did [it] not to me.
Tedaj jim bo odgovoril, rekoč: ›Resnično, povem vam: ›V kolikor tega niste storili enemu izmed teh najmanjših, tega niste storili meni.‹‹
