< मत्ती 25 >
1 तब स्वर्गको राज्य ती दस कन्याजस्तै हुनेछ जसले आ-आफ्ना बत्तीहरू लिएर दुलहालाई भेट्न गए ।
"Then the kingdom of heaven will be like ten virgins, who took their lamps, and went out to meet the bridegroom.
2 तिनीहरूमध्ये पाँच जना निर्बुद्धि र पाँच जना बुद्धिमती थिए ।
Five of them were foolish, and five were wise.
3 किनकि जब ती निर्बुद्धि कन्याहरूले आफ्ना बत्तीहरू लिए, तिनीहरूले आफूसँग कत्ति पनि तेल लगेनन् ।
For the foolish, when they took their lamps, took no oil with them,
4 तर बुद्धिमती कन्याहरू प्रत्येकले बत्तीहरूसँगै आ-आफ्ना तेलका भाँडाहरू पनि लगे ।
but the wise took oil in their vessels with their lamps.
5 दुलहा आउन ढिला भएको हुनाले तिनीहरू सबै निन्द्रामा परे र सुते ।
Now while the bridegroom delayed, they all slumbered and slept.
6 तर मध्यरातमा एउटा आवाज आयो, ‘हेर, दुलहा! बाहिर जाऊ अनि उनलाई भेट ।’
But at midnight there was a cry, 'Look. The bridegroom. Come out to meet him.'
7 त्यसपछि ती सबै कन्या उठे र आ-आफ्ना बत्तीहरूलाई ठिक्क पारे ।
Then all those virgins arose, and trimmed their lamps.
8 निर्बुद्धि कन्याहरूले बुद्धिमतीहरूलाई भने, ‘हामीलाई तिमीहरूका केही तेल देऊ किनभने हाम्रा बत्तीहरू निभ्न लागेका छन् ।’
The foolish said to the wise, 'Give us some of your oil, for our lamps are going out.'
9 तर बुद्धिमती कन्याहरूले जवाफ दिए र भने, ‘तिमीहरू र हामी दुवैलाई प्रशस्त पुग्ने तेल नभएकोले, तेल बेच्नेहरूकहाँ जाओ र आफ्नो लागि तेल किन ।’
But the wise answered, saying, 'What if there is not enough for us and you? You go rather to those who sell, and buy for yourselves.'
10 जब तिनीहरू तेल किन्न बाहिर गए, दुलहा आइपुगे अनि जति जना तयार थिए तिनीहरू विवाहको भोजमा उनीसँगै गए, अनि ढोका बन्द गरियो ।
While they went away to buy, the bridegroom came, and those who were ready went in with him to the marriage feast, and the door was shut.
11 केही समयपछि अरू कन्याहरू पनि आएर भने, ‘प्रभु, प्रभु, हाम्रो लागि खोलिदिनुहोस् ।’
Afterward the other virgins also came, saying, 'Lord, Lord, open to us.'
12 तर उनले जवाफ दिएर भने, ‘साँच्चै म तिमीहरूलाई भन्दछु, म तिमीहरूलाई चिन्दिनँ ।’
But he answered, 'Truly I tell you, I do not know you.'
13 त्यसकारण, जागा रहो, किनकि त्यो दिन वा घडी तिमीहरूलाई थाहा छैन ।
Watch therefore, for you do not know the day nor the hour.
14 किनकि यो परदेश जानै लागेको मानिसजस्तै हो । उसले आफ्ना नोकरहरूलाई बोलाए र तिनीहरूलाई आफ्नो सम्पत्तिको जिम्मा दिए ।
"For it is like a man, going on a journey, who called his own servants, and entrusted his goods to them.
15 उनले तिनीहरूमध्ये एक जनालाई पाँच सिक्का दिए; अर्कोलाई दुई सिक्का र फेरि अर्कोलाई उनले एक सिक्का दिए । प्रत्यकले आफ्नो क्षमताअनुसार ती रकमहरू लिए, अनि त्यो मानिस तुरुन्तै आफ्नो यात्रामा हिँड्यो ।
To one he gave five talents, to another two, to another one; to each according to his own ability. Then he went on his journey.
16 पाँच सिक्का पाउने तुरुन्तै गयो र उसले त्यसलाई लगानी गर्यो, र त्यसबाट अर्को पाँच सिक्का कमायो ।
Immediately the one who received the five talents went and traded with them, and made another five talents.
17 त्यसै गरी, जसले दुई सिक्का पाएको थियो, उसले पनि त्यसबाट अर्का दुई सिक्का कमायो ।
In like manner he who got the two gained another two.
18 तर एउटा मात्र सिक्का पाएको नोकर गयो र उसले एउटा खाल्डो खन्यो, र आफ्नो मालिकको पैसा त्यहाँ लुकायो ।
But he who received the one went away and dug in the earth, and hid his lord's money.
19 अब धेरै समयपछि ती नोकरहरूका मालिक फर्केर आए अनि तिनीहरूसँग हिसाब लिए ।
"Now after a long time the lord of those servants came, and reconciled accounts with them.
20 पाँच सिक्का पाएको नोकर आयो र उसले अर्को पाँचवटा सिक्का ल्यायो । उसले भन्यो, ‘मालिक, तपाईंले मलाई पाँचवटा सिक्का दिनुभएको थियो, हेर्नुहोस्, मैले अर्का पाँचवटा सिक्का कमाएको छु ।’
He who received the five talents came and brought another five talents, saying, 'Lord, you delivered to me five talents. See, I have gained another five talents.'
21 उसको मालिकले उसलाई भने, ‘स्याबास, असल र विश्वासयोग्य नोकर! तिमी थोरै कुरामा विश्वासयोग्य भएका छौ । म तिमीलाई धेरै कुरामाथि अधिकार दिनेछु । तिमी पनि आफ्नो मालिकको खुसीमा सामेल होऊ ।’
"His lord said to him, 'Well done, good and faithful servant. You have been faithful over a few things, I will set you over many things. Enter into the joy of your lord.'
22 दुईवटा सिक्का पाएको नोकर आयो र भन्यो, ‘मालिक तपाईंले मलाई दुईवटा सिक्का दिनुभएको थियो । हेर्नुहोस्, मैले अर्का दुईवटा सिक्का कमाएको छु ।’
"He also who got the two talents came and said, 'Lord, you delivered to me two talents. See, I have gained another two talents.'
23 उसको मालिकले उसलाई भने, ‘स्याबास, असल र विश्वासयोग्य नोकर! तिमी थोरै कुरामा विश्वासयोग्य भएका छौ । म तिमीलाई धेरै कुरामाथि अधिकार दिनेछु । तिमी पनि आफ्ना मालिकको खुसीमा सामेल होऊ ।’
"His lord said to him, 'Well done, good and faithful servant. You have been faithful over a few things, I will set you over many things. Enter into the joy of your lord.'
24 त्यसपछि एउटा सिक्का पाएको नोकर आयो र भन्यो, ‘मलाई थाहा छ, कि तपाईं कडा स्वभावको मानिस हुनुहुन्छ । तपाईंले आफूले नरोपेको ठाउँबाट कटनी गर्नुहुन्छ र नछरेको ठाउँबाट फसल निकाल्नुहुन्छ ।
"He also who had received the one talent came and said, 'Lord, I knew you that you are a hard man, reaping where you did not sow, and gathering where you did not scatter.
25 मलाई डर थियो । त्यसकारण, म गएँ र तपाईंको सिक्कालाई जमिनमुनि लुकाइराखेँ । ‘हेर्नुहोस्, जे तपाईंको हो यसलाई लिनुहोस् ।’
I was afraid, and went away and hid your talent in the earth. See, you have what is yours.'
26 तर उसको मालिकले जवाफ दिए र भने, ‘ए दुष्ट र अल्छी नोकर, मैले नरोपेको ठाउँबाट कटनी गर्छु र नछरेको ठाउँबाट फसल निकाल्छु भनेर तँलाई थाहा थियो ।
"But his lord answered him, 'You wicked and slothful servant. You knew that I reap where I did not sow, and gather where I did not scatter.
27 त्यसकारण, तैँले मेरो पैसा साहुकहाँ दिनुपर्ने थियो, र म आउँदा मैले आफ्नो पैसा ब्याजसहित पाउने थिएँ ।
You ought therefore to have deposited my money with the bankers, and at my coming I should have received back my own with interest.
28 त्यसकारण, त्योसँग भएको एक सिक्का लेओ र जुन नोकरसँग दस सिक्का छ त्यसलाई देओ ।
Take away therefore the talent from him, and give it to him who has the ten talents.
29 किनकि जससँग छ त्यसलाई अझ धेरै दिइनेछ अर्थात् अझ प्रशस्त गरी दिइनेछ । तर जससँग छैन, त्यससँग भएको पनि त्यसबाट खोसिनेछ ।
For to everyone who has will be given, and he will have abundance, but from him who does not have, even that which he has will be taken away.
30 त्यो बेकम्मा नोकरलाई बाहिरी अन्धकारमा फालिदेओ, जहाँ रुवाबासी र दाह्रा किटाइ हुनेछ ।’
Throw out the unprofitable servant into the outer darkness, where there will be weeping and grinding of teeth.'
31 जब मानिसका पुत्र आफ्नो महिमामा आउनेछन् र उनको साथमा सारा स्वर्गदूतहरू आउनेछन्, उनी आफ्नो महिमित सिंहासनमा विराजमान हुनेछन् ।
"But when the Son of Man comes in his glory, and all the angels with him, then he will sit on the throne of his glory.
32 उनको सामुन्ने सारा जाति भेला गराइनेछन्, र जसरी गोठालाले आफ्ना भेडाहरूलाई बाख्राहरूबाट छुट्ट्याउँछ, त्यसरी नै उनले एउटा मानिसलाई अर्कोबाट छुट्ट्याउनेछन् ।
Before him all the nations will be gathered, and he will separate them one from another, as a shepherd separates the sheep from the goats.
33 उनले भेडाहरूलाई आफ्नो दायाँ हातपट्टि र बाख्राहरूलाई आफ्नो बायाँपट्टि राख्नेछन् ।
He will set the sheep on his right hand, but the goats on the left.
34 त्यसपछि राजाले आफ्नो दाहिनेपट्टि भएकाहरूलाई भन्नेछन्, ‘आओ, तिमीहरू जो मेरा पिताद्वारा आशिषित् भएका छौ, संसारको सृष्टिदेखि नै तिमीहरूका लागि तयार पारिएको राज्यलाई अधिकार गर ।
Then the King will tell those on his right hand, 'Come, blessed of my Father, inherit the Kingdom prepared for you from the foundation of the world;
35 किनकि म भोकाएको थिएँ, अनि तिमीहरूले मलाई खान दियौ; म प्यासी थिएँ र तिमीहरूले मलाई पिउन दियौ; म परदेशी थिएँ र तिमीहरूले मलाई भित्र आउन दियौ;
for I was hungry, and you gave me food to eat. I was thirsty, and you gave me drink. I was a stranger, and you took me in.
36 म नाङ्गो थिएँ र तिमीहरूले मलाई लुगा पहिराइदियौ; म बिरामी थिएँ र तिमीहरूले मेरो वास्ता गर्यौ; म झ्यालखानामा थिएँ र तिमीहरू मकहाँ आयौ ।’
I was naked, and you clothed me. I was sick, and you visited me. I was in prison, and you came to me.'
37 त्यसपछि धर्मी जनहरूले जवाफ दिई भन्नेछन्, ‘प्रभु हामीले कहिले तपाईंलाई भोकाउनुभएको देख्यौँ र तपाईंलाई खुवायौँ? वा तिर्खाउनुभएको देख्यौँ र तपाईंलाई पिउन दियौँ?
"Then the righteous will answer him, saying, 'Lord, when did we see you hungry, and feed you; or thirsty, and give you a drink?
38 र हामीले कहिले तपाईंलाई परदेशी भएको देख्यौँ र तपाईंलाई भित्र ल्यायौँ?
When did we see you as a stranger, and take you in; or naked, and clothe you?
39 र हामीले तपाईंलाई बिरामी वा झ्यालखानामा कहिले देख्यौँ र हामी तपाईंकहाँ आयौँ?’
When did we see you sick, or in prison, and come to you?'
40 र राजाले जवाफ दिनेछन् र तिनीहरूलाई भन्नेछन्, ‘साँच्चै म तिमीहरूलाई भन्दछु, तिमीहरूले यहाँ मेरा भाइहरूमध्ये सानोभन्दा सानोलाई जे-जति गर्यौ, त्यो मेरो निम्ति नै गर्यौ ।’
"The King will answer them, 'Truly I tell you, inasmuch as you did it to one of the least of these my brothers, you did it to me.'
41 त्यसपछि उनले आफ्नो बायाँ हातपट्टि भएकाहरूलाई भन्नेछन्, ‘हे श्रापितहरू, मबाट दूर भएर अनन्त आगोमा जाओ, जुन दुष्ट र त्यसका दूतहरूका लागि तयार गरिएको हो, (aiōnios )
Then he will say also to those on the left hand, 'Depart from me, you cursed, into the everlasting fire which is prepared for the devil and his angels; (aiōnios )
42 किनभने म भोकाएको थिएँ, तर तिमीहरूले मलाई खान दिएनौ; म तिर्खाएको थिएँ, तर तिमीहरूले मलाई पिउन दिएनौ;
for I was hungry, and you did not give me food to eat; I was thirsty, and you gave me no drink;
43 म परदेशी थिएँ, तर तिमीहरूले मलाई भित्र लगेनौ; नाङ्गो थिएँ, तर तिमीहरूले मलाई पहिराएनौ; बिरामी थिएँ र झ्यालखानामा थिएँ, तर तिमीहरूले मेरो वास्ता गरेनौ ।’
I was a stranger, and you did not take me in; naked, and you did not clothe me; sick, and in prison, and you did not visit me.'
44 त्यसपछि तिनीहरूले पनि जवाफ दिनेछन् र भन्नेछन्, ‘प्रभु, हामीले तपाईंलाई भोकाउनुभएको, वा तिर्खाउनुभएको, वा परदेशी, वा नाङ्गो, वा बिरामी हुनुभएको, वा झ्यालखानामा कहिले देख्यौँ र हामीले तपाईंको सेवा गरेनौँ?’
"Then they will also answer, saying, 'Lord, when did we see you hungry, or thirsty, or a stranger, or naked, or sick, or in prison, and did not help you?'
45 अनि उनले तिनीहरूलाई जवाफ दिनेछन् र भन्नेछन्, ‘साँच्चै म तिमीहरूलाई भन्दछु, यिनीहरूमध्ये सानोभन्दा सानोलाई तिमीहरूले जे गरेनौ, त्यो तिमीहरूले मेरो निम्ति गरेनौ ।’
"Then he will answer them, saying, 'Truly I tell you, inasmuch as you did not do it to one of the least of these, you did not do it to me.'
46 यिनीहरू अनन्तको दण्डमा जानेछन् तर धर्मीहरूचाहिँ अनन्त जीवनमा प्रवेश गर्नेछन् ।” (aiōnios )
These will go away into everlasting punishment, but the righteous into everlasting life." (aiōnios )
