Matayos 25
1 Haddaba boqortooyada jannada waxaa loo ekaysiin doonaa toban gabdhood oo bikrado ah, kuwa intay laambadahooda qaateen, u baxay inay ninka arooska ah ka hor tagaan.
[Jesus continued by saying, “I will tell you something else about the time when I return from] heaven as king [MET]. [What will happen to many people who say that they know me will be] like [what happened to] ten virgins who took their lanterns and went to the place where they would meet a bridegroom [and go to his wedding celebration].
2 Shantood waxay ahaayeen doqonno, shanna caqli bay lahaayeen.
Five of the virgins were foolish and five of them were wise.
3 Kuwii doqonnada ahaa laambadahoodii bay qaateen, laakiin saliid ma ay qaadan.
The [virgins] who were foolish took their lanterns, but they did not take any [extra olive] oil [for] the lantern.
4 Kuwa caqliga lahaase laambadahoodii bay qaateen iyo weelal saliidu ku jirto.
But the [virgins] who were wise took oil in their flasks as well as in their lanterns.
5 Laakiin ninkii arooska ahaa waa raagay, taas daraaddeed ayay wada lulmoodeen oo seexdeen.
The bridegroom was delayed, [and it became late at night]. So all the virgins became sleepy and fell asleep.
6 Habeenbadhkiise qaylo ayaa yeedhay, Arooskii waa soo socdaaye, soo baxa oo ka hor taga.
In the middle of the night someone [woke them up by] shouting, ‘Hey! The bridegroom [is arriving]! Go outside and meet him!’
7 Markaasaa bikradihii oo dhammu wada kaceen oo laambadahoodii hagaajiyeen.
So all the virgins got up and trimmed their lantern wicks [so that they would burn properly].
8 Kuwii doqonnada ahaa waxay kuwii caqliga lahaa ku yidhaahdeen, Saliiddiinna wax naga siiya, waayo, laambadahayagii waa demayaan.
The foolish virgins said to the wise ones, ‘Give us some of your [olive] oil, because our lanterns are about to go out!’
9 Laakiin kuwii caqliga lahaa ayaa u jawaabay oo waxay ku yidhaahdeen, Maya, waaba intaas oo ay nagu filnaan waydaa annaga iyo idinka; bal u taga kuwa iibiya oo ka soo iibsada.
The wise virgins replied, ‘[No, because] there might not be enough oil for our lanterns and for yours. Go to a store and buy some for yourselves!’
10 Markay tageen inay soo iibsadaan, ninkii arooska ahaa ayaa yimid, oo kuwii diyaarka ahaa ayaa la galay guriga arooska, albaabkiina waa la xidhay.
But while [the foolish virgins] were going to buy [some oil], the bridegroom arrived. So the [wise virgins], who were ready, went with the bridegroom to the wedding hall [where the bride was waiting]. Then the door was closed {someone closed the door [of that hall]}.
11 Dabadeedna waxaa yimid bikradihii kale, oo waxay yidhaahdeen, Sayidow, Sayidow, naga fur.
Later, the rest of the virgins came [to the hall] and they called [to the bridegroom], ‘Sir, open [the door] for us!’
12 Laakiin wuu u jawaabay oo ku yidhi, Runtii waxaan idinku leeyahay, Anigu idin garan maayo.
But he said [to them], ‘The truth is that I do not know you, so I [will not open the door for you]!’”
13 Haddaba soo jeeda, waayo, garan maysaan maalinta ama saacadda.
[Then Jesus continued by saying], “So, in order that [this will not happen to you], keep expecting [that I will return], because you do not know when [MTY] [it will be].”
14 Maxaa yeelay, waa sidii nin dal kale tegaya, oo addoommadiisii u yeedhay oo xoolihiisii u dhiibay.
“[When I return from heaven as king, I will deal with those who say that they have been serving me like] a man who was about to go on a long journey dealt with his servants. He called them together and gave them each some of his wealth [to invest and gain more money for him].
15 Mid wuxuu siiyey shan talanti, midna wuxuu siiyey laba, midna wuxuu siiyey mid; mid kasta sidii tabartiisu ahayd, markaasuu dhoofay.
He gave them money according to their ability [to take care of it]. [For example], he gave one servant 5,000 dollars, he gave another servant 2,000 dollars, and he gave another servant 1,000 dollars. Then he left on his journey.
16 Isla markiiba kii shantii talanti helay ayaa tegey oo ku baayacmushtaray, oo wuxuu faa'iiday shan talanti oo kale.
The servant who had received 5,000 dollars went immediately and used that money to gain 5,000 dollars more.
17 Sidaas oo kale kii labada helayna, laba kale ayuu faa'iiday.
Similarly, the servant who had [received] 2,000 dollars gained two [thousand dollars] more.
18 Kii midka helayse, wuu baxay oo dhulka qoday oo lacagtii sayidkiisii ayuu ku qariyey.
But the servant who had received one [thousand dollars] went and dug a hole in the ground and hid the money there [to keep it safe].
19 Wakhti dheer dabadeed sayidkii addoommadaas ayaa yimid oo ka xisaab qaatay.
After a long time the servants’ boss returned. He [called them together to] find out what they had done with his money.
20 Kii shantii talanti helay ayaa yimid oo keenay shan talanti oo kale, oo wuxuu ku yidhi, Sayidow, waxaad ii dhiibtay shan talanti; eeg, shan talanti oo kale ayaan ka faa'iiday.
The servant who had received 5,000 dollars brought two [bags, each containing] 5,000 dollars. He said, ‘Boss, you gave me 5,000 dollars to take care of. Look, I have gained 5,000 more!’
21 Sayidkiisii ayaa ku yidhi, Si wanaagsan baad yeeshay, addoon yahow wanaagsan oo aaminka ahu. Wax yar ayaad aamin ku ahayd, wax badan baan madax kaaga dhigayaa. Farxadda sayidkaaga gal.
His boss replied, ‘[You are a very] good and faithful servant! [You have] done [very] well! You have faithfully handled a small [amount of money], so I will put you in charge of a lot of things. Come and be happy with me!’
22 Kii labadii talanti helayna waa yimid oo yidhi, Sayidow, waxaad ii dhiibtay laba talanti; eeg, laba talanti oo kale ayaan ka faa'iiday.
The servant who had [received] 2,000 dollars also came and said, ‘Boss, you gave me 2,000 dollars to take care of. Look, I have gained 2,000 more!’
23 Sayidkiisii ayaa ku yidhi, Si wanaagsan baad yeeshay, addoon yahow wanaagsan oo aaminka ahu. Wax yar ayaad aamin ku ahayd, wax badan baan madax kaaga dhigayaa. Farxadda sayidkaaga gal.
His boss replied, ‘You are a [very] good and faithful servant! You have done very well! You have faithfully handled a small [amount of money], so I will put you in charge of a lot of things. Come and be happy with me!’
24 Kii talantigii keliya helayna waa u yimid oo ku yidhi, Sayidow, waan ku garanayay inaad tahay nin qalbi engegan, oo aad wax ka guratid meel aanad wax ku beeran oo aad wax ka urursatid meel aanad wax ku firdhin.
Then the servant who had received 1,000 dollars came. He said, ‘Boss, I [was afraid of you]. I knew that you are a man who does not do foolish things with his money. [You even] take [from others money] that does not really belong to you, [like a farmer who] harvests [grain from another man’s field] where he did not even plant [the seeds].
25 Waana baqay, oo intaan tegey ayaan talantigaagii dhulka ku qariyey. Bal eeg, waa kan kaagii.
So because I was afraid [of what you would do to me if I did not make a profit from my business], I went out and hid your 1,000 dollars in the ground [to keep it safe]. Here, this is [the money] that belongs to you!’
26 Markaasaa sayidkiisii u jawaabay oo ku yidhi, Addoon yahow sharka leh oo caajiska ahu, waad ogayd inaan wax ka gurto meel aanan wax ku beeran, oo aan wax ka urursado meel aanan wax ku firdhin.
His boss replied, ‘You wicked, lazy servant! (You knew that I take [from others money] that does not really belong to me, [like a farmer who] harvests [grain from another man’s field] where I did not even plant [the seeds]!/Did you not know that I [take from others money that does not really belong to me, like a farmer] who harvests [grain from another man’s field] where I did not even plant [the seeds]?) [RHQ]
27 Haddaba waxaad lahayd inaad lacagtayda u dhiibto kuwa baangiga jooga, oo goortaan soo noqdo, waxayga iyo faa'iido ayaan qaadan lahaa.
So then, you should have put my money [on deposit] in a bank, so that when I returned I would get it back with the interest [it earned]!’
28 Haddaba talantigii ka qaada oo u dhiiba kan tobanka talanti haya.
[Then the boss said to his other servants], ‘Take the 1,000 dollars from him, and give it to [the servant] who has the 10,000 dollars!
29 Waayo, mid walba oo wax haysta waa la siin doonaa, waana loo badin doonaa, kii aan waxba haysanse waa laga qaadi doonaa xataa wuxuu haysto.
To those who [use well what] they have [received, God] will give more, and they will have plenty. But from those who [do] not [use well what they have received], even what they [already] have will be taken away.
30 Oo addoonka aan waxtarka lahayn ku tuura gudcurka dibadda ah. Halkaas waxaa jiri doonta baroor iyo ilko jirriqsi.
Furthermore, throw that worthless servant outside, into the darkness, where he will be [with those who are] wailing and gnashing their teeth [because they are in much pain].’”
31 Goortii Wiilka Aadanahu ammaantiisa ku yimaado, isaga iyo malaa'igaha oo dhan, markaasuu carshiga ammaantiisa ku fadhiisan doonaa.
“When I, the one who came from heaven, come again, I will be very radiant and [bring] all my angels with me. Then I will sit as a king on my wonderful throne [to judge people].
32 Quruumaha oo dhan ayaa hortiisa lagu soo ururin doonaa oo wuxuu u kala sooci doonaa mid mid sida adhijirku u kala sooco idaha iyo riyaha.
People from all nations [MTY] will be gathered in front of me {[The angels] will gather in front of me people from all nations}. Then I will separate them, one from another, as a shepherd separates his sheep from his goats.
33 Idaha wuxuu joojin doonaa midigtiisa, riyahana bidixdiisa.
I will put [the righteous people] on my right and [the unrighteous ones on my left, as a] shepherd puts sheep [on one side] and goats [on the other side].
34 Markaasaa Boqorku kuwa midigtiisa jooga ku odhan doonaa, Kaalaya, kuwa Aabbahay barakeeyeyow, oo dhaxla boqortooyada tan iyo aasaaskii dunida laydiin diyaargareeyey.
Then I will say to those on my right, ‘You people who have been blessed by my Father {whom my Father has blessed}, come! From the time he created the world, he has been preparing to allow you to [receive the blessings that he will give to all those] who let him rule their lives. [Now is the time for] you to receive [those blessings]
35 Waayo, waan gaajooday oo cuntaad i siiseen, waan harraadsanaa oo waad i waraabiseen, qariib baan ahaa oo waad i soo dhoweeyseen,
[They belong to you], because you gave me something to eat when I was hungry. (OR, [They belong to you]. It is as though you gave me something to eat when I was hungry.) You gave me something to drink when I was thirsty. When I was a stranger [in your town], you invited me [to stay] in [your houses].
36 waan qaawanaa oo dhar baad i huwiseen, waan bukay oo waad i soo booqateen, xabsi baan ku jiray oo waad ii timaadeen.
When I needed clothes [MTY], you gave me some. When I was sick, you took care of me. When I was in prison, you came to visit me.’
37 Markaasaa kuwa xaqa ahu u jawaabi doonaan iyagoo leh, Sayidow, goormaannu ku aragnay adigoo gaajaysan oo aannu cunto ku siinnay, ama adigoo harraadsan oo aannu ku waraabinnay?
Then the righteous people will reply, ‘Lord, when were you hungry and we saw you and gave you something to eat? When were you thirsty and we gave you something to drink?
38 Goormaannu ku aragnay adigoo qariib ah oo aannu ku soo dhowaynay ama adigoo qaawan oo aannu wax ku huwinnay?
When were you a stranger [in our town] and we invited you [to stay] in [our houses]? When did you need clothes and we gave you some?
39 Goormaannu ku aragnay adigoo buka ama adigoo xabsi ku jira oo aannu kuu nimid?
When were you sick or in prison and we went to visit you?’ [We do not remember doing any of these things for you].
40 Markaasaa Boqorkii u jawaabi doonaa oo ku odhan doonaa, Runtii waxaan idinku leeyahay, In alla intaad u samayseen mid ka mid ah walaalahaygan u yaryar, waad ii samayseen.
I will reply, ‘The truth is that whatever you did for any one of your fellow believers, even an unimportant one, [it was as though] you did it for me.’
41 Markaasuu kuwa bidixdiisa jooga ku odhan doonaa, Kuwa yahow inkaaranu, iga taga oo gala dabka weligiis ah kan Ibliiska iyo malaa'igihiisa loo diyaargareeyey. (aiōnios g166)
Then I will say to those on my left, ‘You people who have been cursed [by God] {whom God has cursed}, leave me! Go into the eternal fire that God has prepared for (the devil/Satan) and his angels! (aiōnios g166)
42 Waayo, waan gaajooday, cuntona ima aydnaan siin, waan harraadsanaa, imana aydnaan waraabin.
[It is right for you to go there], because you did not give me anything to eat when I was hungry. You did not give me anything to drink when I was thirsty.
43 Qariib baan ahaa, imana aydnaan soo dhowayn, waan qaawanaa, dharna ima aydnaan huwin, waanan bukay oo xabsi ku jiray oo ima aydnaan soo booqan.
You did not invite me into [your homes] when I was a stranger [in your town]. You did not give me any clothes when I needed them [MTY]. You did not take care of me when I was sick or in prison.’
44 Iyaguna markaasay u jawaabi doonaan oo ku odhan doonaan, Sayidow, goormaannu ku aragnay adigoo gaajaysan ama harraadsan ama qariib ah ama qaawan ama buka ama xabsi ku jira oo aannu ku kalmayn waynay?
They will answer, ‘Lord, when were you hungry or thirsty or a stranger or needing clothes or sick or in prison, and we did not help you?’
45 Markaasuu u jawaabi doonaa oo ku odhan doonaa, Runtii waxaan idinku leeyahay, In alla intaad u samayn weydeen mid ka mid ah kuwan u yaryar, anigana waad ii samayn weydeen.
I will reply, ‘The truth is that whenever you did not do anything to help any one of [my people], [even if they were] unimportant people, [it was as though] you did not do anything [to help] me.’
46 Kuwanuna waxay geli doonaan taqsiirta weligeed ah, kuwa xaqa ahuse waxay geli doonaan nolosha weligeed ah. (aiōnios g166)
Then those people [on my left] will go away to the place where [they] will be punished {[God] will punish them} eternally, but the righteous people will go to where they will live forever [with God].” (aiōnios g166)
