Mathayo 25
1 Mbe niwo obhukama bhwamulwile bhulisusanyibhwa na abhayala ekumi abho bhagengele jitala na nibhagenda okuja okulamila omutwasi wo bhwenga.
The kingdom of heaven is like ten girls, who took their lamps with them to go and meet the bridegroom.
2 Abhatanu mwabho bhaliga bhamumu bhatanu abhandi bhaliga bhobhwenge.
Five were foolish, and five were wise.
3 Abhayala abhamumu bhejile bhagegele jitala jebhwe bhatagegele mafuta gone gone.
The foolish girls took their lamps but didn't take any oil with them,
4 Nawe abhayala bho bhwebge bhagegele ebhinu bhya mafuta amwi najitala jebhwe.
while the wise took jars of oil with them as well as their lamps.
5 Woli omwanya omutwasi wobhenga ejile akola okukinga, bhone nibhagwatwa jitilo nibhamama.
The bridegroom took a long time and all the girls became drowsy and fell asleep.
6 Nawe omwanya gwa mungeta agati nibhao ijogele,' Mbe mulole omutwasi wo bhwenga! Ni muuluke anja mujokumulamila.'
At midnight the shout came, ‘Look, the bridegroom's here! Come out and meet him!’
7 Niwo abhayala abho bhone nibhemuka nibhakongeshq jitala jebhwe.
All the girls got up and trimmed the wicks of their lamps. The foolish girls said to the wise ones,
8 Abhamumu bhaliya nibhabhwila bhaliya abho bhwengwe, muchiyaneko libhala lya mafuta gemwe okubha jitala jeswe ejisimilila!
‘Give us some of your oil, because our lamps are going out.’ But the wise girls replied,
9 Nawe bhaliya abhobhwengeso mbhabhasubhya no kubhabhwila ati, amwi gatakuchiya eswe nemwe, akili mugende kubhanu mwigulile abhene.'
‘No, because otherwise there won't be enough for both you and for us. Go to the shopkeepers and buy some oil for yourselves.’
10 OMwanya bhagendele eyo okugula, omutwasi wo bhwenga akingile, na bhone bhanu bhaliga bhamaliliye bhagendele nage omutwasi wo bhwenga, omulyango gwegaye.
While they went to buy oil, the bridegroom arrived, and those who were ready went in with him to the wedding, and the door was locked shut.
11 Ejile bheya abhayala abhandi one nibhakinga nibhaika! 'Latabhugenyi, Latabhugenyi nuchigulile.
The other girls came later. ‘Lord, Lord,’ they called, ‘Open the door for us!’
12 Nawe asubhishe naika ati, nichimali nabhabhwila ati, anye nitakubhamenya.
But he answered, ‘I tell you the truth: I don't know you.’
13 Kulwejo nimwangalile, kwokubha mutakumenya lusiku nolwo isaa.
So stay alert, for you don't know the day, or the hour.
14 kwo kubha ni lwa kutyo omunu aliga nenda okuja mulugendo okuja munsi Indi. Abhabhilikie abhagaya bhae nabhasigila obhunibhi bhwae.
It's like a man who went away on a trip. He called in his servants and entrusted them with what he owned.
15 Oumwi webhwe amuyanile jitalanta etanu oundi amuyanile Ebhili, na uliya oundi amuyanile talanta imwi. Bhuli umwi alamiye okwingana no bhutulo bhwae, no munu uliya agendele jae.
To one of them he gave five talents, to another he gave two, and to another one, according to their different abilities. Then he left.
16 Ao nao uliya alamiye jitalanta etanu agendele najibhikisha, no kwibhusha jitalanta ejindi etanu.
Immediately the one with five talents went and invested them in a business, and made another five talents.
17 Niko kutyo uliya alamiye jitalanta ebhili, ebhusishe ejindi ebhili.
In the same way the one with two talents made another two.
18 omugaya oyo alamiye italanta imwi, agendele jae, nasimba elyobho mumayalu, naiseleka iyela ya isebhugenyi wae.
But the man who'd received the one talent went off and dug a hole and hid his master's money.
19 Mbe nigutulao mwanya mulela, isebhugenyi wa abhagaya abho asubhile na nakonja amasabhu nabho.
A long time later the master of those servants returned, and settled accounts with them.
20 Uliya omugaya oyo alamiye jitalanta etanu ejile no kuleta jitalanta ejindi etanu, naika ati, 'Latabhugenyi, wananile jitalanta etanu, Lola nabhenemo jitalanta ejindi etanu.'
The one with five talents came and presented the other five talents. ‘Master,’ he said, ‘You gave me five talents. Look, I've made a profit of five talents.’
21 Esebhugenyi wae amubhwiliye ati, 'Wakondya, uli mugaya wa bhwana na mwiikanyibhwa! wabha mwiikanyibhwa ku cHinu chitoto. Enikuyana obhukulu ingulu ye bhinu byafu. Ingila mubhukondelwa bhwa Esebhugenyi wao.'
His master said to him, ‘You've done well—you are a good, faithful servant. You have proved yourself trustworthy over small things, so now I'm placing you in charge over many things. Be happy because I'm really pleased with you!’
22 Mugaya oyo alamiye jitalanta ebhili ejile naika ati, 'Latabhugenyi, nalamiye talanta ebhili. Lola, nabhwenemo jitalanta ejindi ebhili,
The one with two talents also came. ‘Master,’ he said, ‘You gave me two talents. Look, I've made a profit of two talents.’
23 Esebhugenyi wae amubhwiliye ati, 'Wakondya, uli mugaya wa bhwana na mwiikanyibhwa wabha mwiikanyibhwa kubhinu bhikeele. Enikuyana obhukulu ingulu ye bhinu bhyafu. Ingila mubhukondelwa bhwa Esobhugenyi wao
His master said to him, ‘You've done well—you are a good, faithful servant. You have proved trustworthy over small things, so now I'm placing you in charge over many things. Be happy because I'm really pleased with you!’
24 Ao nao omugaya oyo alamiye Italanta imwi ejile naika ati, 'Latabhugenyi nimenyele ati, awe uli musayuke. Ounoga na ao utayambile, na ougesa nao utabhibhile.
Then the man with one talent came. ‘Master,’ he said, ‘I know that you're a hard man. You reap where you didn't sow, and you harvest crops that you didn't plant.
25 Anye nobhaile, ningenda Jani na niniiseleka Italanta yao mumayalu. Lola, unayo anu ili eyao.'
So since I was afraid of you I went and buried your talent in the ground. Look, you can have back what belongs to you.’
26 Nawe esebhugenyi waye asubhishe naika ati, awe mugaya mubhibhi na mulenga wamenyele ati eninoga ao nichali kuyamba no kugesa nao nichali kubhibha.
But his master answered him, ‘You wicked and lazy servant! If you think I reap where I don't sow, and harvest crops I didn't plant,
27 Mbe kwaliga kukwiile okubhayana iyela yani abhanu bha ibenki, no mwanya gunu nakasubhile anye nakailamiye eyani iliya no luliyo lwendemo.
then you should have deposited my silver in the bank so that when I returned I could have had my money with interest.
28 Mbe mumuteshe Italanta eyo na mumuyane uliya omugaya oyo ali na jitalanta ekumi.
Take the talent away from him, and give it to the one with ten talents.
29 Bhuli munu unu alinacho, alyongesibhwa bhyafu -nolwo kwo kukanyisibwa muno. Tali ku wone wone oyo atali nachinu nolwo echo alinacho alitesibhwa.
For everyone who has will be given even more; and everyone who doesn't have anything, even what they have will be taken away from them.
30 Nimumwese anja mumwilima (muchisute) oyo omugaya Oyo ateile, niyo kulibha okulila no kuguguna ameno.'
Now throw this useless servant out into the darkness where there'll be crying and gnashing of teeth.’
31 Akatungu omwana wo munu alija na likusho lyaye, na bhamalaika bhone amwi nage niwo alinyanja kuchitebhe chae echa likusho.
But when the Son of man comes in his glory, and all the angels with him, then he will sit on his majestic throne.
32 Amaanga gone galikofyanya imbele yaye, omwene alisolamo abhanu lwa kutyo omulefi kasolamo jinyabhalega na jimbusi.
Everyone will be brought before him. He will separate them from one another, as a shepherd separates the sheep from the goats.
33 alijitula jinyabhalega mukubhoko kwe bhulyo, Tali jimbusi alijitula mukubhoko kwe ebhumosi.
He'll place the sheep on his right hand, and the goats on his left.
34 Mbe niwo omukama alibhabhwila bhalia bhanu bhali mukubhoko kwae kwe bhulyo, muje abho muyanilwe amabhando na Lata wani mwingile mubhukama bhunu mwabhikiwe emwe kwambila okutelwao emisingi ja insi.
Then the king will say to the ones on his right, ‘Come, you who are blessed by my Father, and inherit the kingdom that's been prepared for you from the beginning of the world.
35 Okubha naliga no mweko nimunana ebhilyo; Naliga mugenyi nimunkalibhisha.
For I was hungry, and you gave me food to eat. I was thirsty, and you gave me a drink. I was a stranger and you invited me in.
36 Naliga tuyu nimunfwafya emyenda, Naliga ndwae na nimumbika; Na Naliga nibhoyelwe na nimunyijila!
I was naked and you clothed me. I was sick and you looked after me. I was in prison and you visited me.’
37 Mbe niwo abhalegesi bhalimusubhya nibhaika ati, 'Latabhugenyi, Ni lii chakubhwene uli no mweko no kukukesha amwi uli no bhwilo na nichikuyana amanji.
Then those who are right will answer, ‘Lord, when did we see you hungry and fed you, or thirsty and gave you a drink?
38 Na Ni lii chakulolele uli mugenyi, na nichikukalibhisha amwi uli tuyu nichikufwafya emyenda?
When did we see you as a stranger and invite you in, or naked and clothe you?
39 Na ni lii chakulolele uli mulwae amwi mwibhoyelo na nichikwijila?
When did we see you sick, or in prison, and visit you?’
40 No mukama alibhasubhya no kubhabhwila ati, ni chimali enibhabhwila ati echo mwakolele anu ku umwi wa bhaili bhani abhatoto, mwankolee anye.'
The king will tell them, ‘I tell you the truth: whatever you did for one of these of least importance you did for me.’
41 Niwo alibhabhwila abho bhali mukubhoko kwae kwe bhumosi, nimusoke kwanye abho mufumilisibhwe, mugende mumulilo gunu gutakuwao gunu gwelabhilwe kulwa shetani na bhamalaika bhaye, (aiōnios g166)
He'll also say to those on his left, ‘Go away from me, you who are doomed, into the eternal fire prepared for the devil and his angels! (aiōnios g166)
42 okubha naliga no mweko nawe mutananile bhilyo; Naliga nili no bhwilo nawe mutananile manji;
For I was hungry and you didn't give me anything to eat. I was thirsty and you didn't give me a drink.
43 Naliga nili mugenyi mutankalibhisishe nili tuyu nawe mutananile myenda; Nili mulwae na nili mwibhoyelo nawe mutandolele.'
I was a stranger and you didn't invite me in. I was naked and you didn't clothe me. I was sick and in prison and you didn't visit me.’
44 Niwo abho one bhalimusubhya nibhaika ati, Latabhugenyi, Ni lii chakulolele uli no mweko, amwi uli no bhwilo, amwi uli mugenyi amwi uli tuyu, amwi uli mulwae, amwi uli mubhoywa na chitakufulubhendeye?
Then they will also answer, ‘Lord, when did we see you hungry, or thirsty, or a stranger, or naked, or sick, or in prison, and didn't look after you?’
45 Mbe niwo alibhasubhya naika ati, Ni chimali enibhabhwila ati chilia echo mutakolele ku umwi wa bhanu abhatoto, mutankolee anye.'
Then he will tell them, ‘I tell you the truth: whatever you didn't do for one of these of least importance you didn't do for me.’
