Matayo 25
1 Ndipo bhufalme bhwa kumbinguni bhwibetakufananisibhwa ni bhanabhali kumi bhabhatolili taa sya bhene ni kulota kunjambelela bwana harusi.
The kingdom of heaven is like ten girls, who took their lamps with them to go and meet the bridegroom.
2 Bhahanu miongoni mwa bhene bhajhele bhapumbafu na bhahanu bhangi bhajhele bherevu.
Five were foolish, and five were wise.
3 Bhanabhali bhapumbafu bhatolili taa sya bhene, bhatolili lepi mafuta ghoghoha ghala.
The foolish girls took their lamps but didn't take any oil with them,
4 Bali bhanabhali bherevu bhatolili fenu fyafijhele ni mafuta pamonga ni taa sya bhene.
while the wise took jars of oil with them as well as their lamps.
5 Hene bho bwana harusi akabhili kuhida bhoha bhakamuliki ni ligono na bhakagona.
The bridegroom took a long time and all the girls became drowsy and fell asleep.
6 Lakini bho jhijhingili ngisi pakilu pajhele ni njweghu, 'Langayi, bwana harusi! Muhomayi kwibhala kunjamb'elela.'
At midnight the shout came, ‘Look, the bridegroom's here! Come out and meet him!’
7 Ndipo abhu bhana bhali bhakajhumuka bhoha ni kubhwasya taa sya bhene.
All the girls got up and trimmed the wicks of their lamps. The foolish girls said to the wise ones,
8 Bhala bhapumbafu bhakabhajobhela bhala bherevu, 'mutupelayi sehemu jha mafuta gha muenga kwandabha taa syitu sisimika.'
‘Give us some of your oil, because our lamps are going out.’ But the wise girls replied,
9 Lakini bhala bherevu bhakabhajibu ni kubhajobhela, 'Kwa kujha ghibetalepi kututosya tete ni muenga badala jhiakhe mulotayi kwa bhabhihemetesya mkahemelayi kiasi kwa ndabha jha muenga.'
‘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 Bho bhatolili okhu kuhemela, Bwana harusi akahida, na bhoha bhajhele tayari bhakalota nakhu ku sherehe jha harusi, ni ndiangu ukadendibhwa.
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 Baadaye bhala bhana bhali bhangi pia bhakahida ni kujobha, 'Bwana, bwana, tudendulilayi.'
The other girls came later. ‘Lord, Lord,’ they called, ‘Open the door for us!’
12 Lakini ajibili ni kujobha, 'Kweli nikabhajobhela, Nene nibhamanyili lepi.'
But he answered, ‘I tell you the truth: I don't know you.’
13 Henu mulangayi, kwandabha mumanyilepi ligono au lisaa.
So stay alert, for you don't know the day, or the hour.
14 Kwa kujha ni sawa ni munu jhaalondeghe kusafiri kulota nchi yenge. Akabhakuta bhatumwa bhwa muene ni kubhakabidhi bhutajiri bhwa muene.
It's like a man who went away on a trip. He called in his servants and entrusted them with what he owned.
15 Mmonga kati jha bhene ampelili talanta sihanu, jhongi ampelili sibhele, nu jhongi ampelili talanta jhimonga. Kila mmonga ampelili kul'engana ni bhuwezo bhwa muene, nu munu jhola akasafiri kwilotela.
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 Manyata jhola jhaajhambelili talanta sihanu alotili kusijhandisila ni kusihogolesya taanta sengi sihanu.
Immediately the one with five talents went and invested them in a business, and made another five talents.
17 Vilevile jhola jhaapokili talanta sibhele asihogolisi senge sibhele.
In the same way the one with two talents made another two.
18 Lakini n'tumwa j'haapokili talanta jhimonga, akilotili, akagima lilende pasi ni kufigha talanta jha bwana ghwa muene.
But the man who'd received the one talent went off and dug a hole and hid his master's money.
19 Na baada jha muda ufupi, bwana ghwa bhatumwa abhu akherebhwiki ni kutengenesiya mahesabu nabhu.
A long time later the master of those servants returned, and settled accounts with them.
20 Jhola n'tumwa jhaapokili talanta sihanu ahidi ni kusileta kabhele senge sihanu, akajobha, 'Bwana, wanipelili talanta sihanu. Langayi, nikabhili faida jha talanta senge sihanu.'
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 Bwana ghwa muene akan'jobhela, 'Hongera, n'tumwa nnofu na mwaminifu! Ujhele mwaminofu kwa fenu fidebe. Nibetakupela madaraka kufenu fibhaha fingi. Jhingilayi mu furaha jha bwana ghwakhu!
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 N'tumwa jha apokili talanta sibhele akahida ni kujobha, 'Bwana, ghwanibelili talanta sibhele. Langayi, nikabhili kabhele faida jha talanta sijhele,'
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 Bwana ghwa muene akan'jobhela, 'Hongera, n'tumwa nnofu na mwaminifu! Ujhele ghwa mwaminifu kwa fenu fidebe. Nibetakupela madaraka juu jha fenu fingi. Jhingilayi mu furaha jha bwana bhwakhu.'
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 Baadajhe n'tumwa jhaapokili talanta jhimonga akahida ni kujobha, 'Bwana, nimanyili kujha bhebhe ghwe nkali. Ghwijhabhe ambapo upandilepi, na ghwivuna mahali ambapo usiyelili lepi.
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 Nene natilili nalotili kuifigha talanta jha jhobhi mu bhudongo. Langayi, ujhenajhu apa jhele jhaijhele jhajhobhi.'
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 Lakini bwana ghwake akajibu akajibu ni kujobha, 'Bhebhe n'tumwa mwovu na mzembe ghwamanyili kujha nijhabha mahali ambapo nipandilepi ni kuvuna mahali ambapo nisyelili lepi.
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 Henu ulondekeghe kubhapela hela jhangu bhanu bha benki, na bhwakati bhwa kubhujha kwa nene nganijhipokili jhela jha nene pamonga ni faida jhiakhe.
then you should have deposited my silver in the bank so that when I returned I could have had my money with interest.
28 Henu munyakayi talanta ejhu na mumpelayi jhola jha ajhele ni talanta kumi.
Take the talent away from him, and give it to the one with ten talents.
29 Kila munu jha ajhenaku, ibetakujhongesibhwa zaidi-hata kwa kujhongesibhwa kabhele. Lakini kwa jhejhioha jhaibetalepi kujha naku na hata khela kya ajhe nakhu inyakibhwa.
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 Mun'sopayi kwibhala kukitita n'tumwa ojhu jhailondeka lepi, ambako kubetakujha ni kilelu ni kusiagha minu.'
Now throw this useless servant out into the darkness where there'll be crying and gnashing of teeth.’
31 Bwakati Mwana ghwa Adamu paibetakuhida mu bhutukufu bhwa muene, ni malaika bhoha pamonga nu muene, ndipo paibetakutama panani pa kiti kwa muene kya bhutukufu.
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 Mataifa ghoha ghibetakwibhongeniya mbele sya muene, nu muene ibetakubhatangenisya bhanu, kama vile n'chungaji kyaikabhatenganisya kondoo ni mmene.
Everyone will be brought before him. He will separate them from one another, as a shepherd separates the sheep from the goats.
33 Ibetakubheka kondoo kibhoko kyamuene kya kuume, bali mmene ibetakubhabheka kibhoko kya kushoto.
He'll place the sheep on his right hand, and the goats on his left.
34 Kisha mfalme ibetakubhajobhela bhala bha bhajhele kibhoko kya kulia, 'Muhidayi, mwamubarikibhu ni tata ghwa ghwanene, mubhulithiayi bhufalme bhwabhujhandalibhu kwa ndabha jhinu kuhomela kubhakibhwa msingi bhwa bhulimwengu.
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 Kwa kujha najhele ni njala na mwanipelili kyakulya; Najhele na n'geni na mwanikaribisi;
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 Najhele ngholi, na mwanifwatiki nghobho; Najhele na n'tamu na mwan'tunzili; Najhele mu kifungu na mwahidili kunilota.
I was naked and you clothed me. I was sick and you looked after me. I was in prison and you visited me.’
37 Ndipo bhenye haki bhibetakun'jibu ni kun'jobhela, 'Bwana, ndali twakubhwene ujhe ni njala ni kukulesya? Au kujha ni kiu na tukakupela masi?
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 ndali twakubhwene ghwe n'geni, na tukakukaribisya? Au ujhe ngholi na tukakufweka nghobho?
When did we see you as a stranger and invite you in, or naked and clothe you?
39 Na ndali tubetakubhona ghwiluala kama wiluala, au mu kifungu, tukahida kulola?
When did we see you sick, or in prison, and visit you?’
40 Na mfalme ibetakubhajibu ni kubhajobhela, 'bhukweli nikabhajobhela, kyamkibhombili apa kwa mmonga ghwa bhalongo bhangu bhadebe, munibhombili nene.'
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 Ndipo ibetakubhajobhela abhu bhabhajhele kibhokho kya muene kya kushoto, 'Mubhokayi kwa nene, mwamulaanibhu, mulotayi mu muoto bhwa milele bhwabhujhandalibhu kwa ndabha jha lisyetani ni malaika bha muene, (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 kwa ndabha najhele ni njala lakini mwanijhimili kyakulya; najhele ni kiu lakini mwanjimili masi;
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 Najhele ne n'geni lakini mwabelili kunikaribisya; najhele ngholi lakini mwanipelili lepi nghobho; najhele nen'tamu na nikajhelayi mu kifungu, lakini mwan'tunzi lepi.'
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 Ndipo bhene pia bhibetakun'jibu ni kujobha, 'Bwana, ndali twakubhwene ujhele ni njala au kiu au n'geni, au ngholi, au n'tamu, au afungibhu, na twakuhudumili lepi?
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 Kisha ibetakubhajibu ni kubhajobhela, 'Kweli nikabhajobhela, khela ambakyo mwakibhombili lepi kwa mmonga ghwa abha bhadebe, munibhombilepi nene.'
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.’
