Matiewo 25
1 Lanwani tapoli po diema baa naani nani Jafa nba piiga yaaba n den ta bi fidisanmu ki bua cindi o po ja yeni.
THEN shall be likened the kingdom of heaven unto ten virgins, who took their lamps, and went forth to meet the bridegroom and the bride.
2 Bi siiga bobinu den ki tie yandanba, ama bonbimu wani den pia mi yanma.
But five of them were wise, and five foolish.
3 Bi yan pia danba taa bi bi fidisamu baa den tiadi ki taa mi kpama ki kubi.
And those foolish (ones) took their lamps, but did not take with them the oil:
4 Ama bi yandanba wani dentiadi ki tami kpama.
but those were wise who took oil in vessels with their lamps.
5 O poja nden waagi, kaapunditonma, mi guama den gulibikuliki bi guani.
But while the bridegroom withheld, they all dozed and slept.
6 Gu yɔgisiigu ke bi kpaadi kiyigini. O poja pundo. Fi mani tin tuogi o.
And in the dividing of the night there was the cry, Behold, the bridegroom cometh; go forth to his meeting.
7 Bani Jafa nba piga yeni kulifiiki bobini bi fidisanmu.
Then all the virgins arose, and prepared their lamps.
8 Ke bi yanpiadanba maadi, biyandanba, puni ti mani ti mi kpama kelima ti fidisanmu gbindi.
But those foolish ones said to the wise, Give to us from your oil; for, behold, our lamps are gone out.
9 Ama ke bi yandanma maadi, li kan fiditin tieni ti yaa fidisanmu nni yeni yi yaa yumu nni, gadi mani yaaba n kuadi kani ki da yi yali mo.
But the wise ones answered them, saying, Lest it should not suffice for us and for you; but go to those who sell, and buy for you.
10 Ban gadi ki baa daa mi kpama, ke o poja pundi, ke bi yandanba kua yeni o li pogalikani, ke bi luoni li ganli.
And while they were gone to buy, the bridegroom came, and those who were prepared entered with him into the house of festivity, and the gate was shut.
11 Lan pugini waamu, ke bi pundi ki maadi: «canba, canba, luodi ti po li ganli tinkua.»
At last came also those other virgins, saying, Our Lord, our Lord, open to us!
But he answered and said to them, Assuredly I tell you, I know you not.
13 Ti yapo, yin daa gɔa mani kelima yii bani li daali ki buali li yogunu.
Be wakeful therefore, for you know not that day nor the hour.
14 Li baa tie yenmanani yaa jua n den ca o sanu, ki yini o tuosɔnba ki teni ba o piama.
FOR as a man who journeyed called his servants, and delivered to them his property:
15 O den taa dibalamu kiteni cincinliyua, o lielo ligibalalie, o taalo ligibaliyenlo, o denteni yua kuli yeni o palu n dagidi maama.
To one he gave five talents, and to another two, and to another one, each man according to his faculty; and forthwith went away.
16 Yua den gaa ligibalamuu dentaa ki sɔni li tuonli ki ba ligibala muu ki pugini.
But he who had received five talents went and traded with them, and gained five others.
17 Yua go den gaalibalalie mo den sɔni ki baa ligibalalie ki pugini.
Likewise he who (had received) two by trading gained two others.
18 Ama o taalo yua den gaa ligibalayenli, den gadi ki pan gbiidi yaa buogun yabi ki ta ocanba ligiki piini.
But he who had received one went, dug in the earth, and hid the money of his lord.
19 Li den waagi ke canba ti ñani u sanu ki kpeni ki yini bi kuli ki wan diidi yua kuli yaa tuonli n tie maama.
After a long time the lord of those servants came, and received from them the account.
20 Yua n den gaa ligibalamu n nagini o canba kani ki yedi: «Canba n den gaa ligibalamu ki sɔni ki baa ligibalamu ki pugini.»
Then he drew near who had received the five talents, and brought five others, and said, My lord, five talents thou gavest me: behold, five others I have gained by them.
21 O canba n yedi o: «li ŋani, a tie yaa tuonsɔnlo n mɔni, a den gaa waamu ki fidi ki kubi. N baa guuni a yaala n yabi. Cua ke yaa ye yeni nni li pamanli n deni.»
His lord said to him, It is well, good and faithful servant; over a little thou hast been faithful, over much I will establish thee: enter into the joy of thy lord.
22 Yua den gaa ligibalalie n cua ki yedi: «canba, a den teni nni ligibalalie n sɔni ki baa ligibalalie kipugini.
And he of the two talents approached, and said, My lord, two talents thou gavest me: behold, two others I have gained by them.
23 O canba den yedi o, li ŋani a tie yaatuonsɔnlo n mɔni, a den gaa waamu ki fidi ki kubi, n baa guuni a yaala n yabi, cua ki yaa ye yeni nni li pamanli n deni.
His lord saith to him, It is well, servant good and faithful; over a little thou hast been faithful, over much will I establish thee: enter into the joy of thy lord.
24 Yua n den gaa ligibaliyenli n mɔ n cua ki yedi: «canba, n bani ke a tie yaa nilo n paa. A yendi ŋan ki buli nani kani ki wodi ŋan ki lendi naani.
But he also drew near who had received the one talent, and said, My lord, I knew thee, that thou wast a hard man, reaping where thou hadst not sowed, and gathering together from whence thou hadst not dispersed.
25 N den jie ŋaa ki ta a ligitanli ki gbiidi ki piini, Diidi a ligitanli n yeni, gaa.
And I feared, and went and hid thy talent in the earth: behold, thou hast thine own.
26 O canba den ŋmiani o a tie nibiado yo, ŋaa bua fala, a den bani ke n yendi min ki buli naani, ki wodi min kilindi naani
His lord answered, Thou evil and slothful servant, thou didst know me that I reap where I have not sowed, and collect from whence I have not dispersed.
27 a den kan fidi ki ta nligitanli ki gadi ki bili liligidieli nni, halimin kpeni i, li bo baa mali n po.
Did it not behove thee to cast my money upon the table, that when I came I might require mine own with its increase?
28 Gaa mani o ligitanyenli ki teni mani yua n pia ligitana piiga.
Take therefore from him the talent, and give it unto him who hath ten talents.
29 kelima yua n pia, bi baa pugini o wan yaa pia ke li yabi ama yua n ki pia baa wan pia yaala wamuu, bi baa gaa.
For unto him who hath shall be given, and it shall be added to him; but he who hath not, that also which he hath shall be taken from him.
30 Lu mani o niinpo nani n biigi, li bubuuliyeni fala n baa ye naani.
And the indolent servant cast forth into the darknesses without; there shall be weeping and gnashing of teeth.
31 Yaa yogunu ke oja bija baa guanni yeni o kpiagidi yeni o malekinba, o baa kali o badidiema po.
WHEN the Son of man cometh in his glory, and all his holy angels with him, then shall he sit upon the throne of his glory.
32 I nibuoli kuli baa taani okani wan paadi yua kuli yeni o kaanu nani o yankpaalo n yi paadi i ŋɔañe yeni a ŋɔatona maama.
And before him shall be gathered all nations: and he shall separate them one from another, as the shepherd separateth the sheep from the goats.
33 O baa bili i ŋɔañe o jienu, a ŋɔatona o kaanu.
And he shall cause the sheep to stand upon his right hand, and the goats on his left.
34 Yeni o badi baa yedi yaaba n ye o jienu po: «kua mani yinba yaaba ke nba yadi mi yediŋanma i po, kua mani mi badidiema nni yaama ke nba den bobini i po hali ŋanduna n cili yaa yogunu o.
Then shall the King say to them on his right hand, Come, blessed of my Father, inherit the kingdom which was to be for you from the foundation of the world.
35 kelima mi koma den pianni ki puni nni ti jiedi ke n dini, u ñinñunu den pia nni kipuni nni mi ñinma ke n ñuni. Min den tua caano, i den gaa nni i deni.
For I was hungry, and you gave me to eat; I thirsted, and you made me to drink; I was a stranger, and you received me;
36 N den paa cankpalonli, ki den yie nni ti tiadi, min den ki pia laafia mɔ, i den dogidi nni, min den ye li yonmidielinni, i den cua ki fuondi nni.
I was naked, and you covered me; I was sick, and you cared for me; and I was in prison, and you came to me.
37 Ke bi gua ŋmiani o; ti yonmidaano, li laa daali ke ti den laa ŋa ke n koma pia ŋa ke ti teni a ti jiedike a dini? bi ke o ñinñuuni pia ŋa ke ti tena mi ñunma ke a ñuni?
Then shall say unto him those righteous, Our Lord! when did we see that thou wast hungry, and fed thee, or that thou didst thirst, and we gave thee drink?
38 bii a den tua caano bi yaa daali ti dogu nni ke ti gaa ŋaa? bii ke o ñinñuuni pia ŋa ke ti puni a mi ñunma ke a ñunii?
and when did we see thee a stranger, and received thee, or naked, and covered thee?
39 bii li laa daali ke a den yia, bii ki ye li yonmidieli nni ke ti cua ki fuondi a?
and when did we see thee sick, or in prison, and came to thee?
40 ke o bado ŋmiani ba, yeni i momɔni maadi yua n den tieni bi kpiiba ne siiga baa yua n tie biñidiga tieni mini.
And the King shall answer and say to them, Amen I say to you, Inasmuch as you did it unto one of these my least brethren, unto me you did it.
41 Li yaa puoli po u baa gadi ki yedi yaaba n ye u ganu po, fagidimani n kani, yin bia mani i kuli, gadi mani u fantanbuogu nni yagu n den ke n den tuodi ki bobini sitaani yeni o malekinba po. (aiōnios g166)
Then shall he say also unto them on his left hand, Go from me, accursed, into the fire of eternity, which was prepared for the accuser and for his angels. (aiōnios g166)
42 kelima mi koma den cuo nni ke i teni nni ti jiedi ke n dini, o ñinñuuni mo den cuo nni, ke i teni mi ñunma ke n ñun. N go den tua caani i dogu nni, ke i gaani, n go den paa cankpalonli, ke i yieni nni, ke n gɔ den yiagi li yonmidielinni, ke i cua ki fuondi nni.
For I was hungry and you gave me not to eat; and I thirsted, but you made me not to drink;
and I was a stranger, and you received me not; and naked, and you clothed me not; and I was sick, and in prison, and you visited me not.
44 Ke bi gua maadi: «ti yonmidaano, li laa yaa daali ke ti den laa ŋa ke mi koma pia ŋa, bii ñinñuuni pia ŋa, bii ke a tua caano, bii ke a tua caano, bii ke a paa cankpalonli, bii ke a yia bii ke a ye li yonmidieli nni?
Then shall they also answer and say, Our Lord! when saw we thee hungry, or thirsty, or a stranger, or naked, or sick, or in prison, and did not minister unto thee?
45 ke o guani ki ŋmianba: N maadi i momɔni nni yaala ke de tieni yaaba ne siiga kuli, yua n tie i biga, i den tieni mini.
Then shall he answer and say to them, Amen I say unto you, that inasmuch as you did it not unto one of these little ones, you did it not to me.
