Matei 25
1 Gene mobhago, Upalume gwa Kunnungu upinga landana na bhali likumi limo bhajigelenje taa yabhonji, gubhapitengene kukumposhela nkulomba.
“Then the kingdom of heaven shall be like ten virgins, who, taking their lamps, went out to meet the groom and the bride.
2 Nng'ano munkumbi gwabhonji pubhalinginji bhangumba na nng'ano bhashinkukolanga lunda.
But five of them were foolish, and five were prudent.
3 Bhangumba bhala bhaashinkujigalanga taa yabhonji gwangali mauta ga sheituni ga jenjesheya.
For the five foolish, having brought their lamps, did not take oil with them.
4 Ikabheje bhakwetenje lunda bhala bhashinkujigalanga mauta nnyupa na taa yabhonji.
Yet truly, the prudent ones brought the oil, in their containers, with the lamps.
5 Pabha nkulomba ashinkukabha kwiya, bhali bhowe bhala gubhatandwibhenje kugweela na gubhagonilenje.
Since the bridegroom was delayed, they all fell asleep, and they were sleeping.
6 Ikabheje pakati shilo guipilikanishe njobhela ya kuti, nkulomba anakwiya, nnjendangane nkaposhelanje.
But in the middle of the night, a cry went out: ‘Behold, the groom is arriving. Go out to meet him.’
7 Penepo bhali bhowe bhala gubhajumukenje, gubhakolokweyenje taa yabhonji.
Then all those virgins rose up and trimmed their lamps.
8 Bhangumba bhala gubhaabhalanjilenje bhakwetenje lunda bhala kuti, ntupanganje mauta gashoko pabha taa yetu inaimika.
But the foolish ones said to the wise, ‘Give to us from your oil, for our lamps are being extinguished.’
9 Ikabheje bhakwetenje lunda bhala gubhashitenje, gakatujenela tubhowe! Mbaya nnjendangane nkaumanje kugaushwa!
The prudent responded by saying, ‘Lest perhaps there may not be enough for us and for you, it would be better for you to go to the vendors and buy some for yourselves.’
10 Bhai, bhali bhangumba bhala bhakajabhulanjeje kuuma mauta, nkulomba gwaishe, na bhali bhalinginji tayali bhala gubhajinjilenje nnyumba pamo nakankulomba, na nnango ukuugalwaga.
But while they were going to buy it, the groom arrived. And those who were prepared entered with him to the wedding, and the door was closed.
11 “Kungai bhali bhananji bhala gubhaikengene nishema, ‘Mmakulungwa, mmakulungwa, ntuugulile!’
Yet truly, at the very end, the remaining virgins also arrived, saying, ‘Lord, Lord, open to us.’
12 Ikabheje bhenebho gubhaajangwilenje, ‘Kweli ngunakummalanjilanga, ngakummanyanga mmanganyanji.’”
But he responded by saying, ‘Amen I say to you, I do not know you.’
13 Kungai a Yeshu gubhashite, “Bhai, nsheyanje, pabha nkakulimanyanga lyubha wala malanga.”
And so you must be vigilant, because you do not know the day or the hour.
14 “Pabha Upalume gwa Kunnungu ushilandana naka mundu apinjile jabhula mwanja, akwaashemangaga bhatumishi bhakwe nikwaakamuyanga indu yakwe.
For it is like a man setting out on a long journey, who called his servants and delivered to them his goods.
15 Gubhampele kila mundu malinga shibhammweni kombola kwakwe, jumo mmbiya nng'ano na juna mmbiya ibhili na juna mmbiya jimo, kungai gubhajabhwile.
And to one he gave five talents, and to another two, yet to another he gave one, to each according to his own ability. And promptly, he set out.
16 Shangupe a apegwile mmbiya ng'ano jula gwatendile upindi, gwapatile mmbiya ina nng'ano.
Then he who had received five talents went out, and he made use of these, and he gained another five.
17 Nneyo peyo na jwene apegwile mmbiya ibhili gwapatile mmbiya ina ibhili.
And similarly, he who had received two gained another two.
18 Ikabheje apegwile mmbiya jimo jula gwapite olela pai mmbiya ja bhakulungwa bhakwe jila.
But he who had received one, going out, dug into the earth, and he hid the money of his lord.
19 “Gakapiteje mobha gamagwinji, bhakulungwa bha bhatumishi bhala gubhabhujile, gubhatandwibhe pita bhalanganya mmbiya ibhakamwiye na ibhapatilenje muupindi.
Yet truly, after a long time, the lord of those servants returned and he settled accounts with them.
20 Ntumishi apegwilwe mmbiya nng'ano gwaishe ali ajigele mmbiya nng'ano ina, akwaalugulilaga, ‘Mmakulungwa, mwashinkumba mmbiya nng'ano, nnole mmbiya nng'ano ina imbatile.’
And when he who had received five talents approached, he brought another five talents, saying: ‘Lord, you delivered five talents to me. Behold, I have increased it by another five.’
21 Bhakulungwa bhakwe gubhannugulile, ‘Sha mmbone, ntumishi nnguja na jwaakulupalika. Ushikulupalika kwa indu ya ishoko, shinikupe gamakulungwa. Jiya uangalale pamo na nne.’
His lord said to him: ‘Well done, good and faithful servant. Since you have been faithful over a few things, I will appoint you over many things. Enter into the gladness of your lord.’
22 “Ntumishi juna apegwilwe mmbiya ibhili gwaishe, gwashoshiye mmbiya ibhili ina yapatile gwashite, ‘Mmakulungwa, mwashinkumba mmbiya ibhili bhai ntole na mmbiya ina ibhili imbatile.’
Then he who had received two talents also approached, and he said: ‘Lord, you delivered two talents to me. Behold, I have gained another two.’
23 Bhakulungwa bhakwe gubhannugulile, ‘Sha mmbone, ntumishi nnguja na jwaakulupalika. Ushikulupalika kwa indu ya ishoko, shinikupe ya ikulungwa. Jiya uangale pamo na nne.’
His lord said to him: ‘Well done, good and faithful servant. Since you have been faithful over a few things, I will appoint you over many things. Enter into the gladness of your lord.’
24 “Kungai gwaishe apegwilwe mmbiya jimo jula, gwashite, ‘Mmakulungwa, nimmanyi mmwe mmanonopa ntima, nnauna munkapandileje na kulopola munkamishiyeje mmbeju.
Then he who had received one talent, approaching, said: ‘Lord, I know that you are a hard man. You reap where you have not sown, and gather where you have not scattered.
25 Nashinkujogopa, gung'ishiye mmbiya jenu pai. Bhai, nntole mmbiya jenu.’
And so, being afraid, I went out and hid your talent in the earth. Behold, you have what is yours.’
26 “Bhakulungwa bhakwe gubhannugulile, ‘Ugwe ntumishi jwangali jwa mmbone na nkata! Gwamumanyi kuti ngunauna mungapandileje na ngunalopola mungamishiyeje.
But his lord said to him in response: ‘You evil and lazy servant! You knew that I reap where I have not sown, and gather where I have not scattered.
27 Bhai, gwashinkupinjikwa kujibhika mmbiya jangu kubhenki na nne pushimujepo ngatolile mmbiya jangu na pwaida!
Therefore, you should have deposited my money with the bankers, and then, at my arrival, at least I would have received what is mine with interest.
28 Bhai, mumpokonyolanje mbiyajo nkampanganje akwete mmbiya likumi limo jula.
And so, take the talent away from him and give it to the one who has ten talents.
29 Pabha, akwete shindu apinga pegwa na jenjeshewa. Ikabheje jwangali shindu jula, nkali shakwete shila shapokonyolwe.
For to everyone who has, more shall be given, and he shall have in abundance. But from him who has not, even what he seems to have, shall be taken away.
30 Na gaka ntumishi jwangali pwaida jula, munnjaanje palanga kulubhindu! Kweneko kupingabha shililo na tauna meno.’”
And cast that useless servant into the outer darkness, where there will be weeping and gnashing of teeth.’
31 Pushaishe Mwana juka Mundu mu ukonjelo gwakwe na ashimalaika bhakwe, penepo shatame pa shitengu shakwe sha upalume.
But when the Son of man will have arrived in his majesty, and all the Angels with him, then he will sit upon the seat of his majesty.
32 Bhandu bha ilambo yowe shibhaimananje mmujo jabho na bhalabho bhapinga agulanya bhandu mbuti nshunga shakuti agulanya ngondolo na mmbui.
And all the nations shall be gathered together before him. And he shall separate them from one another, just as a shepherd separates the sheep from the goats.
33 Shibhaibhishe ngondolo nkono nnilo na mmbui kunkono nshinda.
And he shall station the sheep, indeed, on his right, but the goats on his left.
34 Kungai a Mpalume shibhaalugulilanje bhalinginji kunkono nnilo bhala, “Nnjiyangane mmanganya mpegwilenje mboka na Atati, mposhelanje upalume gummishilwenje tandubhila kupanganywa kwa shilambolyo.
Then the King shall say to those who will be on his right: ‘Come, you blessed of my Father. Possess the kingdom prepared for you from the foundation of the world.
35 Pabha nashinkukola shibhanga gumbelenje shalya, nashinkukola nnjota gumbelenje mashi, nashinkubha nannjeni gummboshelenje.
For I was hungry, and you gave me to eat; I was thirsty, and you gave me to drink; I was a stranger, and you took me in;
36 Punaliji na uukunu gummbelenje nngubho, punaliji nannwele gunng'ikenje kunnola na ngatabhweje gunng'owelenje.”
naked, and you covered me; sick, and you visited me; I was in prison, and you came to me.’
37 Penepo, bhandunji bhakwetenje aki bhala shibhaajangulanje bhakulungwa, “Mmakulungwa, shakani putwammweni nni na shibhanga nikumpa shalya, eu nni na nnjota nikumpa mashi?
Then the just will answer him, saying: ‘Lord, when have we seen you hungry, and fed you; thirsty, and given you drink?
38 Shakani putwammweni nni mmajeni nikumposhela, eu nni na uukunu nikumpa nngubho nng'wale?
And when have we seen you a stranger, and taken you in? Or naked, and covered you?
39 Shakani putwammweni nni mmalwele eu ntabhilwe gutuishe kukunng'owela?”
Or when did we see you sick, or in prison, and visit to you?’
40 A mpalume shibhaajangulanje, “Kweli ngunakummalanjilanga, shindu shoshowe shimuntendelenje jumo jwa ashaapwanga bhanyegalangabha, nshinkundendelanga nne.”
And in response, the King shall say to them, ‘Amen I say to you, whenever you did this for one of these, the least of my brothers, you did it for me.’
41 Kungai shibhaabhalanjilanje bhalinginji ku nkono nshinda gwabho bhala, “Nnyabhulilanje apano mmaaloshwa! Nnjendangane ku moto gwa pitipiti gwaalashiwe Lishetani na ashimalaika bhakwe. (aiōnios g166)
Then he shall also say, to those who will be on his left: ‘Depart from me, you accursed ones, into the eternal fire, which was prepared for the devil and his angels. (aiōnios g166)
42 Pabha nashinkukola shibhanga mwangambanganga shalya, nashinkukola nnjota mwangambanganga mashi ga ng'wa.
For I was hungry, and you did not give me to eat; I was thirsty, and you did not give me to drink;
43 Punaliji nannjeni mwangamboshelanga, na punaliji na uukunu mwangambanganga nngubho, punaliji nannwele na punatabhilwe mwangang'owelanga.”
I was a stranger and you did not take me in; naked, and you did not cover me; sick and in prison, and you did not visit me.’
44 Penepo na bhalabhonji shibhaajangulanje, “Mmakulungwa shakani putwammweni nni na shibhanga eu nnjota, nni mmajeni eu nni na uukunu, eu mmalwele eu ntabhilwe twangannjangutila?”
Then they will also answer him, saying: ‘Lord, when did we see you hungry, or thirsty, or a stranger, or naked, or sick, or in prison, and did not minister to you?’
45 Na bhalabho shibhaajangulanje, “Kweli ngunakummalanjilanga, kila punkanilenje kwaatendelanga ashaapwanga bhanyegalangabha, nshinkukananga kundendela nne.”
Then he shall respond to them by saying: ‘Amen I say to you, whenever you did not do it to one of these least, neither did you do it to me.’
